Petrobras signs contract for the sale of the LUBNOR refinery
Petrobras, following up on the release disclosed on 01/31/2020, informs that it signed today with the company Grepar Participações Ltda., a corporate entity jointly owned by Grecor Investimentos em Participações Societárias Ltda., Greca Distribuidora de Asfaltos Ltda. and Holding GV Participações S.A., a contract for the sale of the Lubrificantes e Derivados de Petróleo do Nordeste (LUBNOR) refinery and its associated logistics assets, located in the state of Ceará.

The total amount of the sale is US$ 34 million, of which (a) US$ 3.4 million was paid on the date hereof; (b) US$ 9.6 million will be paid at the closing of the transaction and (c) US$ 21 million in deferred payments. The total amount of the sale does not include the payment of contractual adjustments due until the closing of the transaction.

The operation is subject to compliance with precedent conditions, such as approval by the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE).

LUBNOR is the fourth asset to have the purchase and sale agreement signed as part of the commitment signed by Petrobras with CADE in June 2019 to open the refining market in Brazil. This operation is in line with Resolution No. 9/2019 of the National Energy Policy Council, which established guidelines for the promotion of free competition in the refining activity in the country.

This operation is in line with the company's portfolio management strategy and the improved allocation of its capital, aiming to maximize value and provide greater return to society. Petrobras continues to increasingly concentrate its resources on assets that have shown great competitive edge over the years, with lower greenhouse gas emissions.
