Documents referring to the matters to be discussed at the Annual General Meeting, including the Management’s Proposal and the Manual for Participation in General Shareholders’ Meetings, are available for shareholders’ consultation at the Company’s headquarters as well as on its website (ri.copel.com).

The General Meeting shall be carried out exclusively in digital mode, so the Company’s shareholder may take part:

Shareholders may participate in the Meeting whether or not they have sent in the ballot paper. If they have sent it and choose to also participate in the Meeting, they may change the votes cast via Ballot by expressing this decision at the beginning of the Meeting.

 

 

The Ballots may be sent, under the terms of CVM Resolution 81/2022, through the shareholders' custody agents, to the Central Depositary of B3 or, if the shares are in a book-entry environment, to the bookkeeper (Itaú Corretora de Valores S.A.) or, also, directly to the Company, in accordance with the guidelines set out in the Proposal, by April 20, 2025 or, in the case of service providers, within the period respectively set by them.

To participate in the Meeting via Digital Platform, up to 2 days before the Assembly is held, that is, until April 22, 2025, the shareholder must access the Ten Meetings platform (https://assembleia.ten.com.br/539167961), fill in all the registration data and attach all the documents necessary for their qualification to participate and/or vote in the Meeting:

·      Natural Person Shareholder:
