BRF also clarifies that: (i) the votes presented by the shareholders relating to the resolutions regarding the members of the Board of Directors nomination contained in the Voting Forms already submitted to the Company shall remain valid, except if the shareholder delivers a new voting instruction, as set forth in Article 21-A, § 4, of Instruction CVM #481/2009; (ii) the due date for the shareholders to submit a new Voting Form remains the same as the one previously announced, i.e. until April 19, 2018 (inclusive); and (iii) in order to avoid that its voting instruction be considered conflicting, it is advisable that the shareholder submits its eventual new instruction to the same service provider previously utilized.
