(1) Including Notes held by Petrobras or its affiliates.
(2) Per US$1,000, €1,000 or £1,000, as applicable, principal amount of Notes. Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase will be paid accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from, and including, the last interest payment date for the Notes to, but not including, the Settlement Date.

In order to be eligible to participate in the Offers, holders of Notes reflected in notices of guaranteed delivery received by PGF prior to the Expiration Date must deliver such Notes to PGF by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 18, 2020 (the “Guaranteed Delivery Date”).

On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, because the purchase of all Notes validly tendered in the Offers would cause PGF to purchase an aggregate principal amount of Notes that would result in an aggregate amount to be paid by PGF in excess of the Maximum Consideration described in the Offer to Purchase, PGF expects that it will accept for purchase all of the Notes validly tendered, including Notes for which PGF received notices of guaranteed delivery and that are delivered on or prior to the Guaranteed Delivery Date, in Acceptance Priority Levels 1 through 9, 12, 13 and 14 (the “Covered Notes”). PGF expects to reject tenders of Notes, including Notes for which PGF received notices of guaranteed delivery, in Acceptance Priority Levels 10, 11 and 15 through 19 (the “Non-Covered Notes”). Non-Covered Notes will be returned or credited without expense to the holders’ accounts promptly after the Expiration Date. The principal amount of Covered Notes that will be purchased by PGF on the Settlement Date is subject to change based on deliveries of Covered Notes pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described in the Offer to Purchase. A press release announcing the final results of the Offers is expected to be issued on or promptly after the Settlement Date.

The total cash payment to purchase on the Settlement Date the Covered Notes, excluding accrued and unpaid interest, will be approximately US$3,978 million based on the Pounds Sterling to U.S. dollar exchange rate of US$1.2975 per Pound Sterling, and the Euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate of US$1.1828 per Euro, in each case calculated as of 2:00 p.m., New York City time on the Expiration Date, as reported on Bloomberg screen page “FXIP” under the heading “FX Rate vs. USD.”
