EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-223718) (the “Registration Statement”) of Vale S.A. (the “Registrant”), which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2018. The Registration Statement registered 5,000,000 common shares of the Registrant’s stock (the “Shares”), to be offered pursuant to its Matching Program 2018 Cycle (the “2018 Cycle”).
On April 2, 2019, the Registrant filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement No. 333-223718 in order to reflect the amended terms of an additional plan cycle, the Vale Matching Program 2019 Cycle.
The purpose of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 is to amend the Registration Statement to reflect the terms of an additional plan cycle, the Matching Program 2020 Cycle (the “2020 Cycle”).
Under the 2020 Cycle, as in the 2019 Cycle, Shares will be offered to certain eligible employees, subject to the satisfaction of applicable vesting conditions, in connection with those employees’ own purchase of Shares. No additional securities are being registered hereby.
