Vale informs a change in the Audit and Risks Committee’s composition
Rio de Janeiro, July 11, 2024 – Vale S.A. (“Vale” or “Company”) informs that its Board of Directors approved the recomposition of Vale’s Audit and Risks Committee (“Committee”). Mr. Manuel Lino Silva de Sousa Oliveira assumes the position of coordinator and remains as the Committee's financial specialist.

The Committee members’ resumes are available for consultation on the Company's Reference Form, available on Vale's website. Vale's Audit and Risks Committee is a statutory advisory body to the Board of Directors, and its main objective is to oversee the quality and integrity of financial reports, compliance with legal, statutory, and regulatory standards, the adequacy of risk management-related processes, and the internal and independent auditors’ activities.
