1) Inclusion of the contingent block : Can occur up to 4 years after contract signing, in case additional volumes are needed to reach the 5 billion barrels. If it occurs, it will be in the exploratory phase.

2) Revision: After the obligatory exploratory program there will be a verification of each block’s volume. There may be a rearrangement of volumes among the blocks.

3) Realocation: lower production in one block might be compensated for a additional production in another block, limited to the 5 billion barrels of total volume.

STRATEGIC VIEW

Increase in production

► Possible increase in the the company’s production growth rate, helping Petrobras to reach the

position as the larger oil and gas producer among the supermajors

35% increase in proved reserves, strengthening the production growth in a sustainable manner

► Replacing reserves is becoming harder, in light of the restricted access to new exploratory

frontiers throughout the world

Increase in financial resources to implement projects

Page 15: Webcast: Transfer of Rights Agreement

FINAL CONSIDERATIONS

► Similar to the concession contract in terms of regulation and surveillance

► Volume assured and maturity of the contract (40 years, extendable for 5 more) adequate to produce to

contracted volume.

► Revision after the declaration of commercial feasibility for each block

► Independent companies used market assumption to define the volume and value of the areas. When the

revaluation takes place, uncertainties will be reduced.

► Declaration of commercial feasibility is not mandatory (in case the block is not commercial)

► Adjustments will take place after evaluation of possible differences in each block. Reallocation to be

defined according to financial volumes.

► In case the contracted volume cannot be produced, the government will reimburse Petrobras
