1. REQUEST FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF LOSSES.

To request a reimbursement for losses, the Claimant shall comply with the requirements set forth in the Regulations. ​

Hypotheses for a PRP:​

 

• File the PRP within a period of up to 30 consecutive days as of the date that the loss occurred;

 

• Maximum reimbursement amount of BRL 150,000 per deal made;

 

• Submit the documentation related to the PRP.​

2. ANALYSIS OF THE LOSS REIMBURSEMENT REQUEST​

The PRP is forwarded directly to the Compliance Officer so that, within 5 business days, it can conduct an analysis of the documents received and, if applicable, request additional information to complete the analysis and forward a copy of the PRP to the CVM through the Sandbox Committee.

 

After this analysis, the PRP may be (i) archived; (ii) if applicable, have an appeal filed: (iii) forwarded to the PRP Committee for a substantiated decision within 10 business days.​

After reviewing, the PRP Committee may (i) request additional information; or (ii) continue with the negotiation.

 

The Parties may reach an agreement, or either side may refuse to continue negotiations. ​

 

In the event the appeal is refused or rejected, the Compliance Officer must communicate this fact to the CVM through the Sandbox Committee. If the Parties reach an agreement, they will sign an extrajudicial transaction instrument with the agreed terms in the presence of two witnesses. Once this is done, the Compliance Officer will forward a copy of the agreement to the CVM Sandbox Committee.

 

Proof of the reimbursement request’s settlement will be the Defendant’s proof of payment of the agreed amount into the account indicated by the Claimant.
