SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, dated June 23, 2025

This Management Proposal and Manual for Shareholder Participation (this “Manual”) in the Special General Meeting of Holders of Class B Preferred Shares of Companhia Paranaense de Energia – COPEL (the “Company,” “COPEL,” “we,” “our” or “us”) provides holders of our Class B preferred shares with information relating to the Special Meeting of holders of our Class B (the “Class B Shareholders Meeting”) to be held, on first call, on , 2025, at .

The matter being submitted to vote at the Class B Shareholders’ Meeting relates to a proposed Corporate Action (as defined below) to convert our Class B preferred shares into common shares with the purpose of listing our common shares on the Novo Mercado segment of the Brazilian stock exchange - B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (“Novo Mercado” and “B3”, respectively). Novo Mercado has the highest corporate governance standards in the Brazilian securities market, and companies listed in this segment can only have common voting shares.

Our shares are currently listed on the Level 2 segment of B3. Our capital structure is currently composed of (i) 1,300.3 million common shares, (ii) 3.1 million preferred Class A preferred shares and (iii) 1,679.3 million preferred Class B preferred shares. Additionally, in accordance with our bylaws, the State of Paraná holds a single special share that confers the State of Paraná certain limited veto rights (golden share). According to our bylaws, our Class A preferred Shares and Class B preferred Shares are entitled to receive annual, non-cumulative minimum dividends, which dividend per share shall be at least 10% higher than the dividends per share paid to our Common Shares. Class A preferred shares have a dividend priority over the Class B preferred shares, and Class B Shares have a dividend priority over the Common Shares. Currently, (i) American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) representing our common shares (the “Common ADSs,” each Common ADS representing four common shares) and (ii) ADSs representing our Class B preferred shares (the “Preferred ADSs,” each Preferred ADS representing four Class B preferred shares) are registered under Section 12(b) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). If the Corporate Action is approved, the Preferred ADSs will cease to be listed on the NYSE. Our Class A preferred shares are held by a limited number of investors in Brazil and are not listed in the United States and are not registered under the Exchange Act.

Upon approval by our shareholders and satisfaction of all applicable conditions precedent, (i) each holder of preferred shares (including Class B preferred shares and Class A preferred shares) will receive, for each preferred share held, one common share plus an amount in cash of R$0.7749, and (ii) each holder of Preferred ADSs will receive, for each Preferred ADS held, one Common ADS plus the equivalent in U.S. dollars of R$3.0996 (the “Corporate Action”). To effect the Corporate Action, on the settlement date of the Corporate Action, each holder of Class B preferred shares will receive one common share and one Class C preferred share for each Class B preferred share they own. The Class C preferred shares will be immediately redeemed for the cash component of the Corporate Action. No Class C preferred shares will be outstanding or issued after the completion of the Corporate Action. The Corporate Action is being submitted to the approval of holders of our Class B preferred shares at the Class B Shareholders Meeting. We have not paid and will not pay any commission or other remuneration for soliciting shareholder approval for this Corporate Action at the Class B Shareholders Meeting.

The Corporate Action is also subject to approval of holders of our common shares and of holders of our Class A preferred shares, at separate shareholders’ meetings. The approval by such shareholders is a condition precedent for the implementation of the Corporate Action. Currently, the shareholders meeting of holders of common shares and the shareholders meetings of holders of Class A preferred shares are scheduled to occur on the same day of the Class B Shareholders Meeting, but timing for any of these shareholders meeting may change in our sole discretion (subject to the applicable formalities).

Upon the completion of the Corporate Action, the Class B preferred shares will no longer be listed on the B3 and the Preferred ADSs will no longer be listed on NYSE. The common shares received by former holders of Class B preferred shares are and will remain listed on the Brazilian stock exchange and will be listed on the Novo Mercado. The Common ADSs received by former holders of Preferred ADSs are and will remain listed on the NYSE. As permitted by Novo Mercado rules, the State of Paraná will maintain its single special share that confers the State of Paraná certain limited veto rights.

The Class B Shareholders Meeting will be held virtually, with the participation of holders of our Class B preferred shares, through the Ten Meetings digital platform. Holders of our Class B preferred shares may also vote via a remote voting ballot (boletim de voto à distância). Holders of Preferred ADSs of record as of may vote in the Class B Shareholders Meeting by delivering a ADS instruction card to The Bank of New York Mellon, the depositary for our ADS programs, by , 2025.

The participation of the holders of Class B preferred shares is very important since relevant issues for the preferred shareholders and for ourselves will be dealt with at this Class B Shareholders’ Meeting. Members of our management and representatives of our fiscal council (Conselho Fiscal) and our independent auditor, who will be able to provide additional clarifications on the matters on the agenda.

Holders of our Class A preferred shares and common shares will also be asked to approve certain terms relating to the Corporate Action and any other matters related thereto at a special meeting of holders of our Class A preferred shares and at an extraordinary general meeting of our shareholders. Please note that this Manual is not a proxy or solicitation of votes for the meetings in which the holders of our Class A preferred shares or common shares will be asked to approve the Corporate Action.

NONE OF THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, THE BRAZILIAN COMISSÃO DE VALORES MOBILIÁROS OR ANY SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, HAS: (A) APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE CORPORATE ACTION; (B) PASSED UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE CORPORATE ACTION; OR (C) PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

You have withdrawal rights with respect to your Class B preferred shares under the circumstances described herein. Under Brazilian law, withdrawal rights are akin to appraisal or dissenters’ rights in that they permit shareholders to receive a fixed amount of cash in exchange for each Class B preferred shares calculated on the basis of the book value per share of our equity, subject to the conditions set forth below and described in further detail herein. Other than the withdrawal rights described herein, you do not have appraisal or dissenters’ rights under Brazilian law.

Under Brazilian law and our bylaws, holders of Class B preferred shares that hold their Class B preferred shares uninterrupted between the date of the material fact including the proposal for the Corporate Action ( , 2025), and the date of effective exercise withdrawal rights and who do not approve the Corporate Action at the Class B Shareholders Meeting - whether due to dissent, abstention or absence - will be eligible for withdrawal rights. Eligible holders of Class B preferred shares who wish to exercise their withdrawal rights must do so within 30 days from the day we publish the minutes of the Class B Shareholders Meeting approving the Corporate Action.

If any holder of Class B preferred shares exercises their withdrawal rights, they will receive a cash amount equal to R$8.6467556201 per share, calculated in accordance with Brazilian Law No. 6,404 of 1976 (the “Brazilian Corporate Law”), based on the book value per share of our shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2024, subject to the right of holders to request the preparation of a special balance sheet.

Holders of Preferred ADSs will not be able to exercise withdrawal rights, even if they give instructions to The Bank of New York Mellon (the depositary for the Preferred ADS program) to vote against the Corporate Action, nor will The Bank of New York Mellon exercise such rights on their behalf, even if given instructions to do so. Holders of Preferred ADSs who wish to assert withdrawal rights will need to become holders of Class B preferred shares in Brazil, in accordance with the procedures for cancelling Preferred ADSs and withdrawing Class B preferred shares under the deposit agreement relating to the Preferred ADS program (the “Deposit Agreement”), prior to the Class B Shareholders Meeting, and take all requisite actions to assert withdrawal rights as holders of Class B preferred shares in Brazil within the time period set forth above.

What are the U.S. tax consequences for the Corporate Action?

The Corporate Action is expected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a recapitalization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code. Accordingly, it is expected that U.S. Holders (as defined in “Special Factors—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”) of Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs will not recognize any income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Corporate Action, except with respect to any cash received.

U.S. Holders of Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs should read the section entitled “Special Factors—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” for a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Corporate Action. Tax matters can be complicated, and the tax consequences of the Corporate Action to a particular holder will depend on such holder’s individual facts and circumstances. All holders of Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs should consult their own tax advisors to determine the specific tax consequences of the Corporate Action to them.

What are the Brazilian tax consequences for the Corporate Action?

Pursuant to Brazilian law, the conversion of Class A and Class B preferred shares into common shares and Class C preferred shares should not be considered a disposal event and should not be subject to the calculation of capital gain and/or taxation. Conversely, the redemption of Class C preferred shares should be considered as a disposal event, being subject to the calculation of capital gain, in which case the tax treatment may vary depending on the shareholder’s tax qualification, as more fully described under “Special Factors—Material Brazilian Income Tax Consequences.”

SPECIAL FACTORS

This section provides information concerning special factors relating to the proposed Corporate Action.

The Corporate Action, with the elimination of the Class B preferred shares and Preferred ADSs, is subject to Rule 13e-3 issued under the Exchange Act. Accordingly, we have filed a Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 with the SEC related to the proposed Corporate Action and subsequent planned SEC deregistration of our Class B preferred shares and Preferred ADSs. The Schedule 13E-3 is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and on the Company’s website at ri.copel.com.

Purpose, Reason, Alternatives and Effects

The purpose of the Corporate Action is to convert our Class B preferred shares into common shares with the purpose of listing our common shares on the Novo Mercado.

The reasons for our desire to list our common shares on the Novo Mercado is to subject us to strengthen our institutional image by submitting the higher governance standards required by the Novo Mercado listing requirements. .As a result of such listing, we also expect to see an increase in the liquidity of our securities and lower the cost of capital.

We have not considered alternative transactions. The exchange ratio was set to reflect (i) the historical difference between trading prices for our Class B preferred shares and common shares on B3, based on the 60-day VWAP for the period ended May 12, 2025, and (ii) while permitting each holder of common shares and preferred shares to maintain the same proportional share ownership of our total shares.

If the Corporate Action is implemented, former holders of Class B preferred shares will become holders of common shares and we will no longer have any preferred shares outstanding nor will be allowed to issue new preferred shares. Additionally, the Class B preferred shares and the Preferred ADSs will no longer be listed on the B3 and on the NYSE, respectively. Holders of Class B preferred shares will no longer have priority in the distribution of minimum dividends, but will no longer have the limitation on voting rights applicable to the Class B preferred shares.

With respect to dividend rights, currently Class B preferred shares are entitled to priority in the distribution of minimum dividends, pro rata, in the amount equivalent to 25.0% of our net profits, as adjusted in accordance with Article 202 of Law No. 6,404/76, calculated as a proportion of the paid-in capital stock represented by such shares on December 31st of the previous fiscal year, which dividends are paid only from any remaining profits after the payment of priority dividends to Class A preferred shares (which have priority in the distribution of minimum dividends of 10% per year, pro rata, calculated as a percentage of the paid-in capital stock represented by such shares on December 31 of the previous fiscal year). Additionally, dividends paid per preferred share, regardless of the class, are at least 10% higher than the dividends to be paid per common share. Common shares do not have any additional right with respect to dividends.

As a general rule, only our common shares are entitled to vote and each common share corresponds to one vote. However, our bylaws provide that shareholders or groups of shareholders may not vote with more than 10% of the total votes in any resolution. Holders of preferred shares acquire voting rights if, during three consecutive fiscal years, we fail to pay a fixed or minimum dividend to which the preferred shares are entitled. If a holder of preferred shares acquires voting rights in this manner, such rights will be identical to the voting rights of a holder of common shares and will continue until the dividend is paid.

Furthermore, in accordance with our bylaws, holders of preferred shares are entitled to voting rights in regards of specific matter discussed in a shareholders’ meeting:

| · | Change in our corporate type into another, as well as incorporation, merger or spin-off.

| · | Agreements between us and our controlling shareholder, directly or through a third party, or an entity influenced by the controlling shareholder, when such agreements shall be discussed in a shareholders’ meeting by force of statute or our bylaws.

| · | Appraisal of assets for paying in our capital increase.

| · | Choice of an entity to be hired for the assessment of our economic value.

| · | Change or revocation of articles in our bylaws that alter or modify any of the requirements set forth in item 4.1. of the regulation of the Level 2 of B3, while the Level 2 participation contract is still in effect.

| · | Appointment and removal of a member of the Board of Directors in a separate election, when requested by shareholders which have preferred shares equal to at least 10% of our total shares.

| · | Exclusion or change in our bylaws aimed to suppress the right set forth in article 28, XXIX of our bylaws, which provides for the adoption of the full tariff set by a granting authority, requires the approval of most of the preferred shares.

Upon satisfaction of all conditions precedent and completion of the Corporate Action, our common shares will be listed on the Novo Mercado, which will require us to adopt certain additional governance improvements in order to comply with the Novo Mercado listing requirements. These improvements include no longer permitting us to have a dual-class structure (with the exception of the golden share owned by the State of Paraná). For more information on the changes that will be implemented in our bylaws to permit the Novo Mercado listing, see Annex III and Annex IV of this Manual.

Fairness of the Corporate Action and Board Recommendation

We and our Board of Directors believe the Corporate Action is fair and equitable and in the best interests of Copel and all holders of Class B preferred shares and Preferred ADSs, including unaffiliated holders. We and our Board of Directors took into account a number of factors, including the following, in reaching this conclusion:

We believe that current holders of Preferred Class B Shares and Preferred ADSs will benefit from the Corporate Action due to the expected enhanced liquidity in the trading market for its securities (common shares and Common ADSs) following the implementation of the Corporate Action. We believe this greater liquidity will be in the best interest of holders, particularly unaffiliated holders.

| i. | We considered that current holders of Class B preferred shares and Preferred ADSs currently do not have voting rights, except in limited circumstances, and will receive securities that have the same voting rights as all other holders of common shares or other holders of Common ADSs, as applicable. We also considered the additional governance improvements from the Novo Mercado listing and the limitations on voting rights set forth in our bylaws.

| ii. | We considered the current market prices and the historical market prices of our preferred shares, Preferred ADSs, Common Shares and Common ADSs. To determine the cash premium to be paid to holders of Class B preferred shares, we conducted internal studies considering the factors listed above, as well as the 10% dividend premium of Class B preferred shares and the governance rights attributed to common shares.

Based on the approaches outlined above, we found that the historical price spread between Class B preferred shares and common shares has ranged between 10% and 11% since our privatization in August 2023. More recently, market spreads have narrowed to approximately 7%, which we believe reflects a natural convergence in anticipation of a potential listing on Novo Mercado, along with the expected benefits for all shareholders — such as the enhanced governance standards required by Novo Mercado listing requirements and expected increased liquidity. To calculate these spreads, we analyzed the ratio between the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of Class B preferred shares to common shares, instead of relying on intra-day prices. This approach helped to insulate our analyses from intra-day price fluctuations.

Based on this analysis, we concluded that a premium of 7% appropriately reflects the pricing difference between preferred Class B preferred shares and common shares. We believe this represents a fair cash premium for all shareholders, facilitating the listing of our shares in the Novo Mercado and allowing all our shareholders to benefit the anticipated benefits are accessible to all.

We applied this cash premium of 7% to the common share price as of May 12, 2025 (R$11.07), resulting in a cash component of R$0.7749 as the fair cash premium to be considered. May 12, 2025 was the date on which the Company concluded its internal study relating to the proposed Corporate Action and set as a cut-off date to allow sufficient time to go through our internal budgetary and approval procedures. We also considered that since May 12, 2025 the price difference between our common shares and Class B preferred shares has remained relatively stable with Class B preferred shares trading at a price range around 7% higher than common shares.

| iii. | We considered our financial condition, including net book value, going concern value and liquidation value. The Corporate Action will be paid with cash on hand, using our profit and capital reserves. Therefore, it is not expected to adversely affect our financial condition in any material respect. So, we believe that our financial condition is not relevant to the analysis of whether the Corporate Action is fair and equitable and in the best interests of Copel and all holders of Class B preferred shares and Preferred ADSs.

| iv. | We considered the fact that we have not obtained any report, opinion (other than advice of counsel) or appraisal in connection with the Corporate Action, and that no such report, opinion or appraisal is required under Brazilian law or considered necessary by our Board of Directors or shareholders.

| v. | We considered the fact that we have not received, and we are not aware of, any firm offers by any person during the past two years for the merger or consolidation of Copel with or into another company (or the merger or consolidation of any other company with or into Copel), the sale or other transfer of all or any substantial part of Copel, or a purchase of Copel securities that would enable the purchaser to exercise control. Since we are not aware of any such offers from third parties, we believe this factor is not relevant to our determination whether the Corporate Action is fair and equitable and in the best interests of Copel and all holders of Class B preferred shares and Preferred ADSs.

| vi. | We considered the fact that the Corporate Action requires approval of a majority of the holders of Preferred Class B Shares.

| vii. | We considered the share repurchases of our equity securities in the past two years. We believe this factor is not relevant to our determination whether the Corporate Action is fair and equitable and in the best interests of Copel and all holders of Preferred Class B Shares and Preferred ADSs.

| viii. | We considered the fact that Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares will receive the same treatment in the Corporate Action.

We have not sought to quantify or to assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching our belief that the offer is fair and equitable and in the best interests of Copel and all Class B preferred shares and Preferred ADSs, and we believe it would be impractical to do so.

The Corporate Action does not require the approval of at least a majority of unaffiliated security holders.

Our Board of Directors has unanimously approved the Corporate Action. No unaffiliated representative has been retained (whether by a majority of directors who are not employees of Copel, or otherwise) to act solely on behalf of unaffiliated security holders for purposes of negotiating the Corporate Action and/or preparing a reporting concerning the fairness of the Corporate Action.

No alternative offer has been considered, received or rejected by Copel.

In evaluating the fairness of the transaction, the directors have not identified any conflict of interest among the members of our Board of Directors. None of COPEL’s directors and executive officers own, directly or indirectly, any of our shares (including through American Depositary Shares), except that Pedro Franco Sales, a member of our Board of Directors, owns 203,700 common shares (representing less than 1.0% of the outstanding shares). Pedro Franco Sales Monteiro has indicated he intends to vote his shares in favor of the transaction.

Interactions with Shareholders

In 2023, in connection with the secondary offering through which the State of Paraná ceased to be our controlling shareholder, we had submitted to our shareholders a proposal to convert each of our preferred shares into one common share, without a cash component. The shareholders’ meeting that was called for July 2023 to vote on the privatization public offering would also vote on the conversion. Prior to that shareholders’ meeting, BNDESPAR, a holder of 31.2% of our Class B preferred shares, requested the removal from the shareholders’ meeting agenda the items relating to the conversion of preferred shares and listing on the Novo Mercado mentioning that the one-to-one conversion of Class B preferred shares into common shares had the potential effect of reducing the rights of holders of preferred shares without proper compensation. During the shareholder meeting, the majority of our shareholders present voted to remove from the agenda of that meeting the topics relating to the share conversion and Novo Mercado listing, so that the topics relating to the conversion and Novo Mercado listing could be reevaluated after the privatization.

Since the completion of our privatization, we have at multiple times publicly reinforced our intent to propose a transaction to terminate our dual-class structure and effect our listing in the Novo Mercado to obtain the benefits described under “―Purpose, Reason, Alternatives and Effects,” above.

We have not entered nor will enter into any contract, agreement or formal understanding with any shareholder in connection with the Corporate Action.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations of the Corporate Action that are likely to be relevant to U.S. Holders (defined below). This summary is based on provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and regulations, rulings and judicial interpretations thereof, in force as of the date hereof. Those authorities may be changed at any time, perhaps retroactively, so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those summarized below.

This summary does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all of the tax considerations that may be relevant to any particular investor. In particular, this summary is directed only to U.S. Holders that hold Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs as capital assets and does not address particular tax consequences that may be applicable to U.S. Holders who may be subject to special tax rules, such as brokers or dealers in securities or currencies, holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, holders of 10% or more of our shares by vote or value (taking into account shares held directly or through depositary arrangements), tax-exempt organizations, financial institutions, holders liable for the alternative minimum tax, securities traders who elect to account for their investment in our Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs on a mark-to-market basis, regulated investment companies, partnerships or other pass-through entities (or partners or members therein), insurance companies, U.S. expatriates, and persons holding our Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs in a hedging transaction or as part of a straddle, conversion or other integrated transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Moreover, this summary does not address the Medicare tax on net investment income or the tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the Corporate Action under any U.S. federal estate or gift, state, local or foreign taxes.

Each holder is encouraged to consult such holder’s own tax advisor concerning the overall tax consequences to it, including the consequences under laws other than U.S. federal income tax laws, of the Corporate Action.

For purposes of this summary, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs that is (i) an individual citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation, or any other entity taxable as a corporation, organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia, or (iii) otherwise subject to U.S. federal income taxation on a net basis with respect to the Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs.

Holders of Preferred ADSs will generally be treated as owners of the Class B preferred shares represented by such ADSs.

THIS SUMMARY OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS IS FOR GENERAL INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. EACH HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE SPECIFIC U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. INCOME AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE CORPORATE ACTION.

The Corporate Action is expected to qualify as a recapitalization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, and we intend to treat it as such. However, no ruling has been or will be sought from the IRS as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Corporate Action, and, accordingly, no assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of the tax consequences described below.

The remainder of this discussion assumes that the Corporate Action qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code.

A U.S. Holder generally would recognize gain, but not loss equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of cash received and (ii) the excess (if any) of (a) the sum of such amount of cash and the fair market value of our common shares or Common ADSs received by a U.S. Holder over the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs surrendered in the Corporate Action. In no event would the gain recognized exceed the amount of cash received.

A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the common shares or Common ADSs received in the Corporate Action generally would equal the holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs that were converted, reduced by the U.S. dollar amount of any cash received, and increased by the amount of gain, if any, recognized by the holder. A U.S. Holder’s holding period for common shares or Common ADSs received in the Corporate Action would include the period during which the holder held the Class B preferred share or Preferred ADS respectively. U.S. Holders who acquired different blocks of Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs should consult their own tax advisor regarding the manner in which cash and shares of common shares or Common ADSs should be allocated among their different blocks of Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs.

Any gain recognized in the Corporate Action generally would be capital gain provided that one of the Section 302 tests described below was satisfied. Any such recognized gain generally would be long-term capital gain if, as of the date of the Corporate Action, the U.S. Holder’s holding period with respect to the Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs exchanged is more than one year. The net amount of long-term capital gain recognized by an individual holder generally is subject to taxation at preferential rates.

If a U.S. Holder does not satisfy any of the Section 302 tests, the U.S. Holder’s recognized gain generally would be treated as ordinary dividend income to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes). Because we do not maintain calculations of our earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax purposes, any recognized gain that is treated as a distribution generally would be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The U.S. dollar amount of any cash consideration treated as a dividend received by an individual with respect to the Preferred ADSs will be subject to taxation at preferential rates if the dividend is a “qualified dividend.” Subject to certain exceptions for short-term and hedged positions, dividends paid on the Preferred ADSs will be treated as qualified dividends if (i) the Preferred ADSs are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States and (ii) we were not, in the year prior to the year in which the dividend was paid, and are not, in the year in which the dividend is paid, a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”). The Preferred ADSs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and will qualify as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States so long as they are so listed. Based on our audited consolidated financial statements and relevant market and shareholder data, we believe that we were not treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to our 2024 taxable year. In addition, based on our audited consolidated financial statements and our current expectations regarding the value and nature of our assets, the sources and nature of our income, and relevant market and shareholder data, we do not anticipate becoming a PFIC for the 2025 taxable year. Based on existing guidance, it is not clear whether dividends received with respect to our Class B preferred shares will be treated as qualified dividends, because the Class B preferred shares themselves are not listed on a U.S. exchange. Dividends paid by us will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisers regarding the availability of the reduced dividend tax rate in light of the considerations discussed above and their own particular circumstances.

Section 302 Tests

One of the tests set forth below must be satisfied with respect to a U.S. Holder of Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs, as applicable, in order for gain recognized by such holder in the Corporate Action to be treated as capital gain.

| · | Substantially Disproportionate Test. The Corporate Action generally would result in “substantially disproportionate” redemption with respect to a U.S. Holder, if, immediately after the Corporate Action, (i) the ratio of the voting stock owned by such holder to all of the Company’s voting stock is less than 80% of the ratio of the voting stock owned (actually or constructively) by the U.S. Holder in relation to all of the Company’s voting stock immediately before the Corporate Action, and (ii) the ratio of common stock owned by such holder to all common stock of the Company was less than 80% of the same ratio immediately prior to the Corporate Action. In a published revenue ruling, the IRS has indicated that in situations in which more than one class of common stock is outstanding, the above tests are applied in an aggregate and not a class-by-class manner. This ruling applied the test described in clause (i) above by reference to the voting power of the stock owned by the holder, and stated that the determination described in clause (ii) above is made by reference to fair market value. Additionally, Class B preferred stock and Class A preferred stock are expected to be treated as common stock for these purposes.

| · | Not Essentially Equivalent to a Dividend Test. The receipt of cash in the Corporate Action will be treated as “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” if it results in a “meaningful reduction” in the U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in the Company, given the U.S. Holder’s particular facts and circumstances. Whether a U.S. Holder meets this test will depend on the U.S. Holder’s particular facts and circumstances. The IRS has indicated in a published revenue ruling that even a small reduction in the percentage interest of a stockholder whose relative stock interest in a publicly held corporation is minimal and who exercises no control over corporate affairs should constitute a “meaningful reduction.”

| · | Complete Termination Test. A U.S. Holder may able to satisfy the “complete termination” test if (i) the holder sells or otherwise disposes of all that holder’s shares and ADSs contemporaneously with the Corporate Action and as part of a single integrated plan which includes the holder’s participation in the Corporate Action, as discussed below, and (ii) with respect to any shares or ADSs constructively owned, is eligible to waive and effectively waives, constructive ownership of such shares or ADSs, as applicable. However, there exists uncertainty as to whether the “complete termination” test applies in such circumstances. U.S. Holders wishing to satisfy the “complete termination” test should consult their own tax advisors.

For purposes of determining whether any of the Section 302 tests are satisfied, a U.S. Holder generally takes into account not only the shares and ADSs actually owned by the U.S. Holder, but also shares and ADSs that are constructively owned within the meaning of Section 318 of the Code. Under section 318 of the Code, a U.S. Holder may be treated as constructively owning shares and ADSs that are actually owned, and in some cases constructively owned, by certain related individuals and certain entities in which the U.S. Holder has an interest or that have an interest in the U.S. Holder, as well as any shares and ADSs the U.S. Holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option or by the conversion or exchange of a security. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the operation of these constructive ownership rules.

No assurance can be given that a U.S. Holder will be able to determine in advance whether the deemed redemption of the U.S. Holders’ Class B preferred shares or Preferred ADSs pursuant to the Corporate Action will be treated as capital gain or a dividend. Contemporaneous acquisitions or dispositions of Company stock or ADSs by a holder may be deemed to be part of a single integrated transaction and, if so, may be taken into account in determining whether any of the Section 302 tests, described above, are satisfied.

Foreign Currency and Withholding Tax Considerations

The amount of any cash received by a U.S. Holder will include the amount of Brazilian tax withheld, and the amount of any cash consideration paid in reais will be measured by reference to the exchange rate for converting reais into U.S. dollars in effect on the date the cash consideration is received by the U.S. Holder (or, in the case of Preferred ADSs, the custodian). If the U.S. Holder or the custodian, as applicable, does not convert such reais into U.S. dollars on the date it receives them, it is possible that the U.S. Holder will recognize foreign currency loss or gain, which would be ordinary loss or gain, when the reais are converted into U.S. dollars. Subject to generally applicable limitations and conditions, Brazilian withholding tax with respect to the Corporate Action that is paid at the appropriate rate applicable to the U.S. Holder may be eligible for credit against such U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability. These generally applicable limitations and conditions include requirements adopted by the IRS in regulations promulgated in December 2021, and any Brazilian tax will need to satisfy these requirements in order to be eligible to be a creditable tax for a U.S. Holder. In the case of a U.S. Holder that consistently elects to apply a modified version of these rules under temporary guidance and complies with specific requirements set forth in such guidance, the Brazilian withholding tax generally will be treated as meeting the new requirements and therefore as a creditable tax. In the case of all other U.S. Holders, the application of these requirements to the Brazilian tax is uncertain and we have not determined whether these requirements have been met. If the Brazilian tax is not a creditable tax for a U.S. Holder or the U.S. Holder does not elect to claim a foreign tax credit for any foreign income taxes, the U.S. holder may be able to deduct the Brazilian tax in computing such U.S. Holder’s taxable income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For U.S. Holders that do elect to claim foreign tax credits, gain that is treated as a dividend income will constitute income from sources without the United States and generally will constitute “passive category income” for foreign tax credit purposes. On the other hand, any capital gain recognized by a U.S. Holder generally will be U.S. source for foreign tax credit purposes. Consequently, even if the withholding tax qualifies as a creditable tax, a U.S. Holder who recognizes capital gain on the Corporate Action may not be able to credit the tax against its U.S. federal income tax liability unless such credit can be applied (subject to generally applicable conditions and limitations) against tax due on other income treated as derived from foreign sources.

The availability and calculation of foreign tax credits and deductions for foreign taxes involve the application of complex rules and also vary depending upon on a U.S. holder’s particular circumstances. The temporary guidance discussed above also indicates that the Treasury and the IRS are considering proposing amendments to the December 2021 regulations and that the temporary guidance can be relied upon until additional guidance is issued that withdraws or modifies the temporary guidance. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules to their particular situations.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

A U.S. holder that is a “significant holder” is subject to certain recordkeeping and information reporting requirements on the recapitalization.

Cash consideration from the Corporate Action which is treated as a dividend paid on the Preferred ADSs or Class B preferred shares to a U.S. Holder generally may be subject to the information reporting requirements of the Code and may be subject to backup withholding unless the U.S. Holder (i) is a corporation or other exempt recipient or (ii) provides an accurate taxpayer identification number and certifies that no loss of exemption from backup withholding has occurred.

A holder that is not a “United States person” (as defined in the Code) generally will be exempt from these information reporting requirements and backup withholding tax, but may be required to comply with certain certification and identification procedures in order to establish its eligibility for such exemption in connection with payments received within the United States or through certain U.S.-related intermediaries.

The amount of any backup withholding collected from a payment to a holder will be allowed as a credit against the holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle the holder to a refund, provided that certain required information is furnished to the IRS.

Material Brazilian Income Tax Consequences

Pursuant to Brazilian law, the conversion of Class A and Class B preferred shares into common shares and Class C preferred shares (“Conversion”) should not be considered a disposal event and should not be subject to the calculation of capital gain and/or taxation.

Conversely, the redemption of Class C preferred shares should be considered as a disposal event, being subject to the calculation of capital gain, in which case the tax treatment may vary depending on the shareholder’s tax qualification:

(a) Brazilian individuals: capital gains are calculated based on the difference between the share redemption value of the Class C preferred shares and their acquisition cost (proportionally calculated considering the cost attributable to Class A and Class B preferred shares previously reported in their respective annual income tax return (Declaração de Imposto sobre a Renda da Pessoa Física – “DIRPF”) and shall be subject to individual income tax (Imposto sobre a Renda da Pessoa Física – “IRPF”) at progressive rates ranging from 15% to 22.5%, depending on the amount of the capital gain;

(b) Brazilian legal entities: capital gains are calculated based on the difference between the share redemption value of the Class C preferred shares and the (i) accounting value (for investments where the investor has significant influence); or (ii) historical acquisition cost (for other investments), subject to corporate income tax (Imposto sobre a Renda das Pessoas Jurídicas – “IRPJ”) and social contribution on net profit (Contribuição Social sobre o Lucro Líquido – “CSLL”) at a combined rate of 34%. As a rule, the disposal of investments classified as non-current assets is not subject to federal social contributions on gross revenue (Contribuição para o Programa de Integração Social – “PIS”; and Contribuição para o Financiamento da Seguridade Social – “COFINS”);

(c) Brazilian investment funds: as a rule, capital gains derived by these funds are not subject to taxation until earnings are distributed to their quotaholders. In this case, such amounts may be subject to withholding income tax (Imposto de Renda Retido na Fonte – “IRRF”), at a rate that may vary depending on the qualification and tax treatment of the fund. An exception applies to cases in which the fund is subject to the automatic periodical taxation mechanism known as “come-cotas”, in which the IRRF shall be paid on May and November, irrespective of any earnings distribution; and

(d) Non-resident investors: capital gains are calculated based on the difference between the share redemption value of the Class C preferred shares and their acquisition cost (proportionally calculated considering the cost attributable to Class A and Class B preferred shares previously registered with the Brazilian Central Bank or otherwise evidenced) and shall be subject to IRRF at the same progressive rates applicable to Brazilian individuals (i.e., 15% to 22.5%, depending on the amount of the gain), or 25% (if such investor is based in a jurisdiction considered a tax haven). Copel, as the Brazilian source of income, is deemed responsible for withholding and paying such taxes on behalf of the shareholders (who are responsible for disclosing the required information for the calculation of the capital gains). Foreign exchange transactions for the remittance of funds are subject to tax on FX transactions (Imposto sobre Operações Financeiras de Câmbio – “IOF-Câmbio”), which is currently levied at a 0% rate on this type of transaction.

Prior Stock Purchases – Share Buyback Program

On November 25, 2024, our Board of Directors approved the creation of the first Share Buyback Program for our common shares and Class B preferred shares with the aim of keeping them in treasury, canceling them or selling them, without reducing our share capital, as well as complying with our long-term incentive plans for employees.

In December 2024, we repurchased 3,074,600 class B preferred shares through the Brazilian stock exchange at prevailing market prices. The highest, lowest and the average price we paid per class B preferred share during such repurchases was R$9.20, R$8.24 and R$8.72, respectively.

In January 2025, we repurchased 4,278,300 class B preferred shares through the Brazilian stock exchange at prevailing market prices. The highest, lowest and the average price we paid per class B preferred share during such repurchases was R$9.56, R$8.31 and R$8.91, respectively.

Except as described above, we have not repurchased Class B preferred shares (including the Preferred ADSs) in the last two years.

Dividends

We are required to hold an annual shareholders’ meeting by April 30th of each year at which, among other things, an annual dividend may be declared by decision of the shareholders on the recommendation of the management, as approved by the Board of Directors. The payment of annual dividends is based on the financial statements prepared for the fiscal year ending December 31. Under Brazilian Corporate Law, we must pay dividends to shareholders of record within 60 days of the date of the shareholders meeting that declared the dividends. A shareholders’ resolution may set forth another date of payment, which must occur prior to the end of the fiscal year in which such dividend was declared. We are not required to adjust the amount of paid-in capital for inflation for the period from the end of the last fiscal year to the date of declaration or to adjust the amount of the dividend for inflation for the period from the end of the relevant fiscal year to the payment date. Consequently, the amount of dividends paid to holders of ADSs may be substantially reduced due to inflation.

Pursuant to our bylaws, our management may declare interim dividends to be paid from profits in our semi-annual financial statements, in accordance with our dividend policy. Any payment of interim dividends counts towards the mandatory dividend for the year in which the interim dividends were paid. In accordance with our dividends policy, our Board of Directors should approve at least once a year interim dividends.

Pursuant to Brazilian Corporate Law, we may pay interest on equity in lieu of dividends as an alternative form of making distributions to shareholders. We may treat a payment of interest on equity as a deductible expense for tax purposes, provided that it does not exceed the lesser of:

| · | the total amount resulting from (i) Long-Term Interest Rate (Taxa de Juros a Longo Prazo, or “TJLP”) multiplied by (ii) the total shareholders’ equity (determined in accordance with Brazilian tax legislation), less certain deductions prescribed by Brazilian tax legislation; and

| · | the greater of (i) 50.0% of current net income (after the deduction of social contribution on profits (Contribuição Social sobre o Lucro Líquido, or “CSLL”) and before taking such distributions and any deductions for corporate income tax) for the year in respect of which the payment is made or (ii) 50.0% of retained earnings and profit reserves for the year prior to the year in respect of which the payment is made.

In accordance with our dividend policy, we will aim to distribute at least 75% of our net income (as adjusted pursuant to the applicable Brazilian law requirements further described below) and aim to maintain our Financial Leverage Ratio, defined as the ratio between our EBITDA and net debt (each calculated as set forth in our dividend policy) between 2.5x and 3.1x, with the goal of converging our Financial Leverage Ratio to 2.8x within each two-year period. Our Board of Directors, however, has the authority to distribute amounts below the 75% adjusted net income threshold when necessary to meet investment strategy requirements, strengthen our financial position or adapt to adverse market changes, subject to the payment of the mandatory minimum dividends and the priority dividends.

Any distribution of dividends higher than the minimum amount of 25% of our adjusted net profits is constrained to the available cash flow of that same year, defined as the operating cash flow minus net cash flow used for investment.

In June 2023, we have paid a total of R$235.3 million (or R$0.14011292 per share) in dividends and interest on equity to holders of our Class B preferred shares (including Class B preferred shares represented by Preferred ADSs).

In November 2023, we have paid a total of R$267.9 million (or R$0.15950586 per share) in dividends and interest on equity to holders of our Class B preferred shares (including Class B preferred shares represented by Preferred ADSs).

In June 2024, we have paid a total of R$ 370.5 million (or R$ 0.22061667 per share) in dividends and interest on equity to holders of our Class B preferred shares (including Class B preferred shares represented by Preferred ADSs).

In November and December 2024, we have paid a total of R$284.4 million (or R$0,16934723 per share) and R$351.7 million (or R$0,20945359 per share), respectively, in dividends and interest on equity to holders of our Class B preferred shares (including Class B preferred shares represented by Preferred ADSs).

In April 2025, we have paid a total of R$734.2 million (or R$0,43720345 per share) in dividends and interest on equity to holders of our Class B preferred shares (including Class B preferred shares represented by Preferred ADSs).

Except as described above, we have not paid dividends or interest on equity to holders of our Class B preferred shares in the last two years.

Dividend Priority of Class A Shares and Class B Shares

According to our bylaws, Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares are entitled to receive annual, non-cumulative minimum dividends, which dividend per share shall be at least 10% higher than the dividends per share paid to the holders of the common shares. Class A preferred shares have a dividend priority over the Class B preferred shares, and Class B preferred shares have a dividend priority over the common shares. To the extent that dividends are paid, they are to be paid in the following order:

| · | first, the holders of Class A preferred shares have the right to receive a minimum dividend equal to 10% of the total share capital represented by the Class A preferred shares outstanding at the end of the fiscal year in respect of which the dividends have been declared;

| · | second, to the extent there are additional amounts to be distributed after all amounts allocated to the Class A preferred shares have been paid in accordance with the first bullet point above, the holders of Class B preferred shares have the right to receive a minimum dividend per share equal to (i) 25% of the adjusted net profit (ii) the total number of Class B Shares outstanding at the end of the fiscal year in respect of which the dividends have been declared; and

| · | third, to the extent that there are additional amounts to be distributed after all amounts allocated to the Class A preferred shares and the Class B preferred shares have been paid, the holders of common shares have the right to receive an amount per share equal to (i) the mandatory dividend divided by (ii) the total number of common shares outstanding at the end of the fiscal year in respect of which dividends have been declared, provided that the Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares receive dividends per share at least 10% higher than the dividends per share paid to the Common Shares.

To the extent that there are additional amounts to be distributed after all amounts described in the preceding items have been paid and in the form therein described, any such additional amount will be divided equally among all our shareholders.

Calculation of Adjusted Net Income

Annual dividends are payable from our adjusted net profit for such period. Brazilian Corporate Law defines “net profit” for any fiscal year as the profits of a fiscal year after the deduction of income and social contribution taxes for that fiscal year and after the deduction of any amounts allocated to employees’ and management’s participation in our results in such fiscal year. The “net profit” for a fiscal year is subject to adjustment by the addition or subtraction of amounts allocated to legal and other reserves, the result of which is known as our adjusted net profit.

In accordance with Brazilian Corporate Law, we must maintain a legal reserve, to which we must allocate 5% of our net profits for each fiscal year until 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 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’ meeting and may be used only for the increase of our capital stock or compensation of losses.

On December 31, 2024, our legal reserve was R$1,766.1 million, or 13.8% of our share capital at that date.

In addition to deducting amounts for the legal reserve, under Brazilian Corporate Law net profit may also be adjusted by deducting amounts allocated to:

| (i) | the contingency reserve: under Brazilian Corporate Law, our shareholders’ meeting, upon a justified proposal of our management, may decide to allocate a percentage of our net profits to a contingency reserve for anticipated losses that are deemed probable in future years, which amount may be estimated;

| (ii) | the tax incentives reserve: under Brazilian Corporate Law, our shareholders’ meeting, upon a justified proposal of our management, may decide to allocate a percentage of our net profits resulting from government donations or subsidies for investment purposes.

On the other hand, net profits may also be increased by:

| · | the reversal of any amounts previously allocated to a contingency reserve in the fiscal year in which the loss that had been anticipated does not occur as projected or in which the anticipated loss occurs but is lower than the contingency allocated to it; and

| · | any amounts included in the unrealized profits reserve that have been realized in the relevant fiscal year and have not been used to offset losses, as approved by our shareholders’ meeting.

Moreover, our net profits are also adjusted by adding the realization of amounts registered under “Equity Value Adjustments.” The account “Equity Value Adjustments” was created as a result of the first-time adoption of IFRS by us in 2010, which caused a fair value revaluation of certain fixed assets and the adoption of the fair value as its “deemed cost” 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 “Equity Value Adjustments” in order to compensate for effects of the increased depreciation costs. In 2024, our adjusted net profits used to calculate our dividends was increased by R$33.4 million as a result of the deemed cost realization in the this fiscal year.

Treatment of ADS Holders

Holders of Preferred ADSs will be entitled to receive the same consideration (on a per share basis) in connection with the Corporate Action as holders of Class B preferred shares. Holders of Preferred ADSs of record as of , 2025 may vote in the Class B Shareholders Meeting by delivering a ADS instruction card to The Bank of New York Mellon, the depositary for our ADS programs, by , 2025. Upon effectiveness of the Corporate Action, holders of American Depositary Shares representing Class B preferred shares will receive, for each Preferred ADS held, one Common ADS and the equivalent in U.S. dollars of R$3.0996, less, if applicable, any taxes withheld in connection with the Corporate Action. The cash component will be converted into U.S. dollars by The Bank of New York Mellon at the prevailing exchange rates.

MANAGEMENT PROPOSAL

In order to make it easier for holders of Class B preferred shares to understand and participate in the Class B Shareholders Meeting, the following are clarifications from our management on the matters that will be the subject of deliberation for the exercise of conscious voting.

***

| 1. | RATIFICATION OF: (A) THE AMENDMENT TO ARTICLE 5 OF OUR BYLAWS TO CREATE A NEW CLASS OF CLASS C PREFERRED SHARES, NOMINATIVE, BOOK-ENTRY AND WITHOUT PAR VALUE ("CLASS C PREFERRED SHARES"), COMPULSORILY REDEEMABLE, WITHOUT THE NEED FOR APPROVAL AT A SPECIAL MEETING OF HOLDERS OF CLASS C SHARES, UNDER THE TERMS OF PARAGRAPH 6 OF ARTICLE 44 OF THE BRAZILIAN CORPORATE LAW; AND (B) THE MANDATORY CONVERSION OF ALL CLASS A AND CLASS B PREFERRED SHARES INTO COMMON SHARES AND CLASS C PREFERRED SHARES, IN THE PROPORTION OF ONE COMMON SHARE AND ONE CLASS C SHARE FOR EACH CLASS A PREFERRED SHARE OR CLASS B PREFERRED SHARE ("CONVERSION"), PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 136, PARAGRAPH 1, OF THE BRAZILIAN CORPORATE LAW.

Clarifications

As disclosed to the market on 2025, we have resumed the process to the effect our listing in the Novo Mercado.

Under the terms of article 8 of the Novo Mercado Regulations, except for special classes of preferred shares in the event of privatization - as the special share held by the State of Paraná under the current article 5 of our bylaws - the share capital of companies listed on the Novo Mercado must be divided exclusively into common shares. Our listing in the Novo Mercado thus requires the conversion of all our preferred shares into common shares.

To this effect, we propose a structure that includes (a) the creation of new class C preferred shares, which are compulsorily redeemable; and (b) the mandatory conversion of all class Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares into common shares and Class C preferred shares in the proportion of one common share and one Class C preferred share for each Class A preferred share or Class B preferred share.

Our management therefore points out that the proposed Conversion includes, in addition to the delivery of the corresponding number of common shares (that is, one common share for each Class A preferred share or Class B preferred share), also the delivery of one compulsorily redeemable Class C preferred share (which share is redeemable at the value of R$0.7749 per share). We believe this structure is important to promote adherence and encourage approval of the Conversion by our shareholders, especially holders of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares.

The compulsory redemption of the Class C preferred shares, which is also subject to the same conditions precedent as the Conversion, will be carried out without the need to reduce our share capital, through the application of our available profit and capital reserves. The redemption will not be subject to the approval of the holders of Class C preferred shares, in view of the proposed amendment to article 5 of our bylaws and the provisions of article 44, paragraph 6 of the Brazilian Corporate Law.

The Conversion (and the Corporate Action) also require approval of certain matters by our shareholders, which matters will be voted on at the Extraordinary General Meeting scheduled to be held, on first call, on 2025 ("General Shareholders Meeting").

In addition to the approval of the Corporate Action by our holders of our Class B preferred shares, as discussed in the bullet above, the Corporate Action is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent: (i) approval by holders of a majority of our Class A preferred shares in a special meeting of Class A preferred shareholders or as otherwise permitted under applicable law, (ii) approval by holders of our common shares at an extraordinary meeting of our common shareholders, (iii) obtaining the required waivers in connection with certain financial agreements that would be subject to an event of default or acceleration as a result of the implementation of the Corporate Action and (iv) approval by the B3 of the listing of our common shares on the Novo Mercado.

As the Novo Mercado listing requires approval by holders of our preferred shares at special meetings, we have called the Class B Shareholders Meeting to vote on the resolutions required to be approved by holders of Class B preferred shares for the Corporate Action and also called a meeting of holders of Class A preferred shares to vote on the resolutions required to be approved by holders of Class A preferred shares for the Corporate Action.

Holders of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares who do not approve the Conversion at the respective special meeting - whether due to dissent, abstention or absence - will have withdrawal rights, through the withdrawal of the shares they demonstrably hold uninterruptedly between the date of the material fact announcing the Corporate Action, on , 2025, and the date of effective exercise withdrawal rights, pursuant to the terms of art. 137, paragraph 1, of the Brazilian Corporate Law.

We reserve the right to call a general meeting to ratify or reconsider the resolution of the Class B Shareholders Meeting, if the directors believe that the payment of the withdrawal rights price of the Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares to the dissenting shareholders who exercised their withdrawal right will jeopardize our financial stability, pursuant to article 137, paragraph 3, of the Brazilian Corporate Law.

In accordance with article 107 of our bylaws, in the event of the exercise of withdrawal rights by holders of Class A preferred shares or Class B preferred shares, the withdrawal rights price will correspond to the book value of the share, calculated on the basis of the net equity contained in the latest financial statements approved by a general meeting, subject to the rights to request the preparation of a special balance sheet pursuant to article 45 of the Brazilian Corporate Law.

In compliance with RCVM 81, the following information required by CVM regulations is also presented:

· Annex I: information on the creation of a new class of preferred share, pursuant to article 18 of RCVM 81;

· Annex II: information on withdrawal rights arising from the creation of the new class of Class C preferred share and the Conversion of Shares, pursuant to article 21 of RCVM 81.

Finally, more information on the matters relating to the Novo Mercado listing can also be found in the documents convening the General Shareholders Meeting, available for consultation on our website (ri.copel.com) and on the CVM (gov.br/cvm) and B3 (b3.com.br) websites.

Approvals

Our Board of Directors analyzed this matter at their meeting held on , 2025.

ANNEX I

INFORMATION ON THE CREATION OF A NEW CLASS OF PREFERRED SHARE (Class C), IN ACCORDANCE WITH ART. 18 OF RCVM 81

1. If there is the creation of preferred shares or a new class of preferred shares

| a. | Give detailed reasons for the proposal to create the shares

The proposal to create new compulsorily redeemable Class C preferred shares is part of our effort to effect the Novo Mercado listing.

Due to the requirements set out in the Novo Mercado regulations, especially those set out in Article 8, our share capital must be exclusively made up of shares with voting rights, which will require the conversion of our Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares.

In order to promote adhesion and encourage approval of the operation by shareholders, especially holders of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares, we propose that the Conversion and the Corporate Action include, in addition to the delivery of one common share for each Class A preferred share or Class B preferred share, also the delivery of one compulsorily redeemable Class C preferred share.

The creation and delivery of compulsorily redeemable Class C preferred shares to current holders of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares contributes to the implementation of the Novo Mercado listing, insofar as immediately after the Conversion we will a compulsorily redeem all Class C preferred shares for a redemption price of R$0.7749 per Class C preferred share.

Thus, in the end, the current holders of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares will receive one common share plus R$0.7749 for each preferred share they owned.

Under the terms of articles 5 and 101 of the draft bylaws proposed to the General Shareholders Meeting, we will no longer be able to issue Class C preferred shares upon the start of trading of our common shares on the Novo Mercado.

1. Describe in detail the rights, advantages and restrictions to be attributed to the shares to be created, in particular:

i. Increased dividends on common shares

ii. Fixed or minimum dividends

iii. Possible cumulative nature of dividends

iv. Right to share in remaining profits

v. Right to receive a dividend from the capital reserve

vi. Priority in capital repayment

vii. Premium on repayment of capital

viii. Voting rights

ix. Statutory right to elect members of the board of directors in a separate vote

x. The right to be included in the public offer for the acquisition of shares by sale of control provided for in art. 254-A of Law no. 6.404, of 1976

xi. Right to veto changes to the articles of association

xii. Terms and conditions of redemption

xiii. Terms and conditions of amortization

Under the terms described in this Manual, the Class C preferred shares will be compulsorily redeemed, immediately after the Conversion, by paying an amount of R$0.7749 per Class C preferred share redeemed.

As provided for in Article 5 of the draft bylaws submitted for approval at the General Shareholders Meeting, the Class C preferred shares to be issued - and compulsorily redeemed – will have the following characteristics, rights and advantages:

| (i) | with the exception of the provisions of the Level 2 Regulations until migration to the Novo Mercado, do not confer on their holder the right to vote in the resolutions of the General Meeting, nor will they acquire full voting rights in the event of non-declaration or payment of the amounts to which they are entitled;

| (ii) | confer priority for the repayment of capital in the event of liquidation of our assets, without premium, in the amount corresponding to the percentage of the share capital represented by such share;

| (iii) | automatically and compulsorily redeemable immediately after their issue, without the need for a special meeting of the holders of such class of preferred shares, for the amount to be defined at the time of their issue, to be paid in Brazilian currency on the redemption date, with us being permitted to withhold amounts for the purpose of paying taxes, fees and expenses for which, under applicable law, we are responsible withholding in name or on behalf of the shareholder;

| (iv) | confer the right to receive proceeds on equal terms with the common shares issued by us; and

| (v) | confer the right to be included in any public offer for the sale of control, on equal terms with the common shares.

2. Provide a detailed analysis of the impact of the creation of shares on the rights of holders of other types and classes of shares in the company

The creation of the Class C preferred shares is part of the efforts to effect the Novo Mercado listing. The Class C preferred shares have been structured to promote and stimulate the adhesion and approval of our shareholders to the Corporate Action, especially by the current holders of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares - who would receive Class C preferred shares in the context of the Conversion.

As such, and considering that the Class C preferred shares will be compulsorily redeemed immediately after the Conversion, we do not foresee any relevant impacts on our other shareholders.

3. If there is a change in the preferences, advantages or conditions of redemption or amortization of preferred shares

· Describe the proposed changes in detail

· Give detailed reasons for the proposed changes

· Provide a detailed analysis of the impact of the proposed changes on the holders of the shares subject to the change

· Provide a detailed analysis of the impact of the proposed changes on the rights of holders of other types and classes of company shares

The Class C preferred shares will only be issued in the context of the Corporate Action to effect the Conversion of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares.

In this context, if the required resolutions for the Corporate Action are approved and the Corporate Action is effected, no Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares will remain outstanding as all former holders of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares will have received one common share and one compulsorily redeemable Class C preferred share for Class A preferred share or Class B preferred share they owned at the time of the Conversion.

ANNEX II

INFORMATION ON WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS (ANNEX H OF RCVM 81)

1. Describe the event that gave or will give rise to the recess and its legal basis

As further described in this Manual, in order to enable our listing on the Novo Mercado segment of B3, we have proposed to our shareholders, among other matters: (a) the creation of a new class of Class C preferred shares, which will be compulsorily redeemable; and (b) the mandatory conversion of all Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares into common shares and Class C preferred shares, in the proportion of one common share and one Class C preferred share for each Class A preferred share or Class B preferred share, as applicable.

Under the terms of art. 136, I and II, of the Brazilian Corporate Law, the Corporate Action, with the creation of redeemable Class C preferred shares, and the Conversion, includes matters which, under the terms of the Brazilian Corporate Law (article no. 137, I) allow holders of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares to exercise withdrawal rights.

The Conversion and the Corporate Action are subject to certain conditions precedent further described elsewhere in this Manual, which conditions include obtaining the approval of more than half of the holders of Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares each at a special meeting of holders of the class of preferred share, pursuant to article 136, paragraph 1, of the Brazilian Corporate Law. In the context of obtaining the required shareholder approvals for the Corporate Action, we have called the Class B Shareholders Meeting.

Holders of Class B preferred shares who do not approve the Corporate Action at the Class B Shareholders Meeting - whether due to dissent, abstention or absence - will have withdrawal rights, through the withdrawal of the shares they demonstrably hold uninterruptedly between the date of the material fact announcing the Corporate Action, on , 2025, and the date of effective exercise of withdrawal rights.

Eligible holders of Class B preferred shares who wish to exercise their withdrawal rights must do so within 30 days from the day we publish the minutes of the Class B Shareholders Meeting approving the Corporate Action.

Eligible holders of Class B preferred shares who wish to exercise their withdrawal rights and who have their shares held through custody agents with their shares deposited in the Central Depository of B3 must consult their respective custody agents with respect to the applicable procedures and deadlines to exercise withdrawal rights. Eligible holders of Class B preferred shares who wish to exercise their withdrawal rights and who have their shares held in book-entry form with our transfer agent must appear in any physical office of our transfer agent with the following documents:

| · | If the shareholder is a natural person, they must present their national Brazilian identification document (Carteira de Identidade), their taxpayer number (Cadastro de Pessoa Física - CPF) and proof of residency.

| · | If the shareholder is a legal entity, they must present their current organizational documents, certificate of enrollment in the Brazilian national registry of legal entities (Cadastro Nacional de Pessoa Jurídica - CNPJ), appropriate corporate documentation establishing representation powers of the representative and, the national Brazilian identification document (Carteira de Identidade), their taxpayer number (Cadastro de Pessoa Física - CPF) and proof of residency of the representative.

| · | If the shareholder is appearing at the transfer agent’s office through a power of attorney, the attorney-in-fact must also bring the original or an authenticated copy of the appropriate power-of-attorney documents providing for the powers to represent the shareholder in exercising their withdrawal rights and with the notarized signature of the shareholder.

| · | Shareholders who are not Brazilian residents may be required to deliver additional identification documents pursuant to applicable law.

In accordance with Brazilian law and if the Corporate Action is approved by the holders of our Class B preferred shares, we will publish a notice directed to the holders of our Class B preferred shares with further detail relating to the exercise of withdrawal rights on or about the date we publish the minutes of the Class B Shareholders Meeting.

If any holder of Class B preferred shares exercises their withdrawal rights, they will receive a cash amount equal to R$8.6467556201 per share (the “Withdrawal Rights Amount”), calculated in accordance with the Brazilian Corporate Law, based on the book value per share of our shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2024, subject to the right of holders to request the preparation of a special balance sheet.

We reserve the right to call a general meeting to ratify or reconsider the resolution of the Class B Shareholders Meeting, if the directors believe that the payment of the withdrawal rights price of the Class A preferred shares and Class B preferred shares to the dissenting shareholders who exercised their withdrawal right will jeopardize our financial stability.

Holders of Preferred ADSs will not be able to exercise withdrawal rights, even if they give instructions to The Bank of New York Mellon (the depositary for the Preferred ADS program) to vote against the Corporate Action, nor will The Bank of New York Mellon exercise such rights on their behalf, even if given instructions to do so. Holders of Preferred ADSs who wish to assert withdrawal rights will need to become holders of Class B preferred shares in Brazil, in accordance with the procedures for cancelling Preferred ADSs and withdrawing Class B preferred shares under the Deposit Agreement, prior to the Class B Shareholders Meeting, and take all requisite actions to assert withdrawal rights as holders of Class B preferred shares in Brazil within the time period set forth above.

Other than the withdrawal rights under Brazilian law as described herein, holders of Class B preferred shares and Preferred ADSs will have no appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the Corporate Action.
