Ref.: Request for clarification on news published in the press
Dear Sir,
In news published by the newspaper Valor Econômico on May 27, 2024, under the title “Agreement between Azul and Gol is seen as a potential merger”, it is stated, among other information, that:
• Behind the scenes, it is said that Azul has been having advanced discussions with Gol regarding consolidation. Initially, it was said that Azul would be willing to buy Gol, but the view that gained more ground is of a joining of forces to create a company that would also have Abra - the holding company of Gol and the Colombian company Avianca - as a shareholder; and
• The deal also has an important background, which is the signaling given behind the scenes by Gol and Azul towards eventual consolidation.
We request clarification on the highlighted items by May 28, 2024, whether confirmed or not, as well as other information considered important.”
In response to the B3 Letter, the Company informs that the codeshare agreement with Azul S.A. (“Azul”) was duly disclosed to the market in the form of a Notice to Market dated May 23, 2024.
Additionally, as reported in the Notice to Market disclosed on March 7 and in the Material Fact disclosed on May 27, 2024, the Company and its advisors intend to conduct a competitive process through which they will evaluate exit financing proposals and any viable and competitive alternative transactions, including opportunities presented by potential sources of equity and debt capital ("Transaction"). However, the Company clarifies that (i) the aforementioned competitive process has not yet commenced; and (ii) no negotiations with the intention of completing a Transaction have been initiated by the Company with any third party.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Abra Group, the Company’s largest secured creditor, has informed the Company that it has begun discussions with Azul to explore business opportunities. GOL notes that such agreement with Azul by the Abra Group would not be binding on the Company.
