Dear Manager,

In consideration of the request for information received, Banco do Brasil hereby presents the relevant information and provides the necessary clarification as follows: 2. Initially, it would not be possible to confirm the veracity of the information released in the news about Banco do Brasil. In fact, news reported in April 2017 already referred to the same facts, now released again by the press. 3. Since last April, when the testimonies provided by Odebrecht employees under Operation Lava-Jato were disclosed mentioning the name of Mr. Aldemir Bendine, former CEO of Banco do Brasil, the bank's Internal Audit, as requested by the Board of Officers, started an internal diligence process in order to analyze the alleged facts cited in the statements and in the news released by the press. 4. It is important to note that, on June 9, 2017, Judge Sérgio Moro, in the case of Criminal Representation Number 5022683-50.2017.4.04.7000 / PR1, granted a request from the Federal Prosecutor’s Office (MPF) to establish an investigation with "the purpose of investigating the possible occurrence of crimes (...) consubstantiated in the alleged payments of undue advantages made by Odebrecht in favor of Aldemir Bendine so that he, as ' CEO, defended interests of the contractor in the state-owned enterprise”2. 5. Therefore, at first analysis of the testimonies made public and according to the understanding of the MPF itself and of the Judge of the 13th Federal Court of Curitiba, the facts

thus far disclosed indicate that Banco do Brasil would not be involved in the supposed payments of undue advantages. 6. It is also important to mention that Banco do Brasil conducts its businesses based on technical and objective criteria, always making decisions through committees, reasons that have led the bank to be a model in transparency and corporate governance. 7. Finally, while reiterating our commitment to seek a thorough clarification of the facts reported in the notice sent by this CVM, the Bank will inform this Commission as soon as the work of its Internal Audit is completed, in which opportunity it will provide any additional relevant information and the conclusions reached.

Subject: Request for clarification on News - Proceeding CVM nº 19957.005790/2017-03.

1. We refer to the news published on June 13, 2017 in the newspaper Valor Econômico under the title "Moro authorizes investigation of Bendine, former CEO of Petrobras and BB"3 and on June 14, 2017, in the newspaper O Globo, under the title "Bendine will be investigated for Odebrecht's bribe" which contain the following statements: "Judge Sergio Moro has authorized the opening of an investigation on bribe requests by Aldemir Bendine, former president of Banco do Brasil and Petrobras, to the Odebrecht Group. According to three of the contractor's whistleblower, including businessman , Bendine received R$ 3 million in cash, delivered in three installments in São Paulo, between June 17 and

July 1, 2016. When the bribe was paid, Marcelo had already been arrested, and LavaJato was in its third year. According to the statements, between 2014 and 2015, Odebrecht executives were contacted several times by the publicist André Gustavo Vieira da Silva, who spoke on behalf of Bendine and requested that a 1% rate to be paid on a prolongation of OdebrechtAmbiental's debt with Banco do Brasil.

Initially, the company resisted paying, since the negotiation with the bank's technical area normally took place. The requests, however, became more and more insistent.

In one of the meetings with the executive Fernando Cunha, the publicist would have said that Bendine was dissatisfied, as he was under orders from Guido Mantega, the coordinator of the government negotiations, and "in the end did not see anything." Initially, it asked from R$ 58 million to R$ 87 million in bribes. Then, it lowered the percentage to 1%, which meant R$ 17 million, according to Marcelo Odebrecht's statement.

The businessman's first contact with Bendine would have occurred in January 2015 at Banco do Brasil's headquarters in São Paulo. Bendine would have arrived at the meeting room with a green briefcase, bearing the Presidency of the Republic's coat of arms, which contained a note that Marcelo himself addressed to Aloizio Mercadante, who served as Minister of the Civil House of former President Dilma Roussef between February 2014 and October of 2015. In the conversation, he would have introduced himself as "interlocutor of the President of the Republic" and said that he would coordinate solutions with the Banking Industry, with power to mitigate advances of the Lava-Jato.” 2. In this regard, we request your statement about the veracity of the statements in the news and, if so, we request a manifestation of the measures being taken by the Company in respect thereof. 3.
