MANAGEMENT PROPOSAL AND GUIDELINES ON PARTICIPATING IN


THE EXTRAORDINARY SHAREHOLDERS MEETING OF 5/10/2017

CLARIFICATION AND GUIDELINES

This document contains information on the matters to be resolved in relation to the proposal
of Management, as well as the necessary clarification on shareholders participation in the
BM&FBOVESPA S.A. Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias e Futuros (Company or B3)
Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting to be held on May 10, 2017.

The aim of this initiative is to reconcile the practices adopted by the Company for timely and
transparent communication with its shareholders with the requirements of Law No. 6.404, of
December 15, 1976 (Corporate Law), and CVM Instruction No. 481, of December 17, 2009
as amended (CVM Instruction 481).

We note that the Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting was previously called to be held on
4/28/2017, on first call. However, the minimum quorum of at least 2/3 (two-thirds) of the
Company's share capital required to hold the Meeting on first call to deliberate on the
amendments to the Bylaws was not reached. In this sense, and considering that the
proposal to change the companys corporate name to B3 SA - Brasil, Bolsa, Balco" would
only produce effects after the respective Bylaws amendments, the Extraordinary
Shareholders Meeting was called again, on second call, to deliberate on these two matters.

Therefore, in compliance with the provisions of the Corporate Law, the Company will hold
the Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting that is convened as follows:

Date: May 10, 2017


Venue: Praa Antonio Prado, 48, 3rd floor,
Centro, So Paulo/SP Brazil
Time: 11 a.m.

B. MANAGEMENT PROPOSAL

Companys Management is submitting the following proposals to the Extraordinary


Shareholders Meeting to be held on May 10, 2017.

B.1. Matters to be resolved on at the Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting

The Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting was convened to resolve on (i) change in the
Companys corporate name; and (ii) amendments to the Companys Bylaws. Below is the
clarification provided by the Companys management concerning these items to be
discussed at this Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting:

Item One To resolve on the change in the Companys corporate name to B3 S.A.
Brasil, Bolsa, Balco.

The formalization of the combination of the activities of the Company with the activities of
CETIP S.A. Mercados Organizados (Transaction), by combining the talents and forces
of both Companies, will represent a milestone in the Brazilian financial and capital markets
from the organization of a company with a world class market infrastructure of great systemic
importance, prepared to compete in a global market that is increasingly sophisticated and
challenging, increasing the security, solidity and efficiency of the Brazilian market.

Therefore, to reflect this new stage and for the combined Company to be already borne with
a proper identity, we propose the change in the Companys corporate name to B3 S.A.
Brasil, Bolsa, Balco, and once approved, this name will be reflected in the Companys By
- Laws.

Item Two To resolve on amendments to the Companys By-Laws, as proposed by the


management.

Upon the formalization of the Transaction on March 29, 2017, Management proposes that
the shareholders resolve on some amendments to the By-Laws to be adopted by the

11

PARTICIPATING IN MEETING
EXTRAORDINARY SHAREHOLDERS MEETING OF 5/10/2017

combined company.

In summary, the proposals for amendment presented, in addition to other adjustments to the
wording and numbering, are as follows:

(i) reflect the change in the Companys corporate name if this is approved at the
Extraordinary General Meeting according to Item One of the agenda of the
Meeting;

(ii) expand the corporate purpose of the Company in order to contemplate the
activities that are currently set forth in the corporate purpose of CETIP;

(iii) reflect the capital increase due to the merger of Companhia So Jos Holding
approved at the Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting of May 20, 2016, which was
registered by the Board of Directors at a meeting held on March 28, 2017;

(iv) define a new structure for the Companys Board, increasing the maximum number
of members of the Board and creating a collegiate body that will integrate the
Board, which is to be referred to as Collegiate Board, in line with the Companys
commitment to always seek for improvement of its governance;

(v) rebalance the attributions of the management bodies, so as to optimize the


Companys decision-making and governance processes, reinforcing the
Companys commitment to constantly improve its governance;

(vi) replicate the rule of the Board of Directors Internal regulation that any election of
member or change in the composition of the Products and Pricing Committee
should require the favorable vote of 90% of the members of the Board of Directors;

(vii) adapt the By-Laws to the terms of the Merger Control Agreement approved by the
Brazilian Antitrust Authority (CADE) in relation to the Transaction;

(viii) create Service Management Committees for the Clearinghouses, as currently set
forth in the Articles of Incorporation of CETIP as a statutory advisory body of the
Companys Board of Directors;

(ix) clarify the scope of the indemnity commitment by the Company to the managers
and employees that hold management positions in the Company or its

12
MANAGEMENT PROPOSAL AND GUIDELINES ON
PARTICIPATING IN MEETING
EXTRAORDINARY SHAREHOLDERS MEETING OF 5/10/2017

subsidiaries or that have been appointed to statutory positions in entities in which


the Company holds an interest;

(x) increase the maximum number of members of the Board of Directors from 13 to
14, which will be effective for 2 years, thus allowing the Board of Directors to have
two more members involved in the integration activities to be addressed with the
due priority.
