The main conditions and characteristics of interest with reference to the related party transactions are:

 

(1)Refers to sale of energy supply to the Minas Gerais State government. The price of the supply is set by the grantor (Aneel) through a Resolution relating to the annual tariff adjustment of Cemig D. In 2017 the government of Minas Gerais State signed a debt recognition agreement with Cemig D for payment of debits relating to the supply of power due and unpaid, in the amount of R$113, up to November 2019. These receivables have guarantee in the form of Cemig’s right to retain dividends and Interest on Equity otherwise payable to the State (in proportion to the State’s equity interest in the Company), for as long as any payments are overdue or in default. On March, 31, 2021, Cemig D obtained authorization from the Minas Gerais State Finance Secretary to offset part of the ICMS tax payable to the state against the debt owed by the State government to the company, under State Law 23,705/2020. Until December 31, 2021, nine installments had been offset.
(2)This refers to the recalculation of the inflation adjustment of amounts relating to the Advance against Future Capital Increase (AFAC), which were returned to the State of Minas Gerais. These receivables have guarantee in the form of Cemig’s right to retain dividends and Interest on Equity otherwise payable to the State (in proportion to the State’s equity interest in the Company), for as long as any payments are overdue or in default. For more information, see Note 11.
(3)The relationship between Cemig and its investees are described in Note 16 – Investments.
(4)The transactions in sale and purchase of energy between generators and distributors take place through auctions in the Regulated Market, and are organized by the federal government. In the Free Market, transactions are made through auctions or through direct contracting, under the applicable legislation. Transactions for transport of energy, on the other hand, are carried out by transmission companies and arise from the centralized operation of the National Grid, executed by the National System Operator (ONS).
(5)An uncovered liability was recognized corresponding to the Company’s equity interest in Madeira Energia S.A. as a result of the judgment given in the arbitration proceedings (for more details see Note 16 to the financial statements).
(6)Refers to a contract to provide plant operation and maintenance services.
(7)This refers to the aggregate amounts of legal actions realized and legal actions provisioned arising from the agreement made between Aliança Geração, Vale S.A. and Cemig. The action is provisioned in the amount of R$149 (R$119 on December 31, 2020), of which Cemig’s portion is R$52 (R$41 on December 31, 2020).
(8)A liability was recognized corresponding to the Company’s interest in the share capital of Hidrelétrica Itaocara, due to its negative equity (see Note 16).
(9)This refers to a contract for development of management software between Cemig D and Axxiom Soluções Tecnológicas S.A., instituted in Aneel Dispatch 2657/2017;
(10)The contracts of Forluz are updated by the Expanded Customer Price Index (Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo, or IPCA) calculated by the Brazilian Geography and Statistics Institute (IBGE) plus interest of 6% p.a. and will be amortized up to the business year of 2031 (see Note 24).
(11)The Company’s contributions to the pension fund for the employees participating in the Mixed Plan, and calculated on the monthly remuneration, in accordance with the regulations of the Fund.
(12)Funds for annual current administrative costs of the Pension Fund in accordance with the specific legislation of the sector. The amounts are estimated as a percentage of the Company’s payroll.
(13)Rental of the Company’s administrative head office, in effect until August 2024 (able to be extended every five years, up to 2034), with annual inflation adjustment by the IPCA index and price reviewed every 60 months. On April 27, 2021, the Company signed with Forluz a contract amendment due to the transfer of Cemig Sim e Gasmig facilities to Júlio Soares building, reducing the Company’s rent expenses. On September 20, 2021 the lease contract was adjusted upward by 9.68%, corresponding to accumulated IPCA inflation over the prior 12 months.
(14)Post-employment obligations relating to the employees’ health and dental plan (see Note 24).
