no. 44, of August 23, 2021, as amended, it communicates to its shareholders and to the market in general that was approved, in a Meeting
of the Board of Directors of the Company held on June 16, 2023 (“RCA”), (I) the celebration by the
Centrais Elétricas do Norte do Brasil S.A. – Eletronorte (“Eletronorte”) of the reprofiling
operation of (a) 1ª (first) issuance of simple debentures, non-convertible into shares, of the unsecured species, with additional
fiduciary guarantee that the company is unique in series, for public distribution, with restricted efforts, of Amazonas Geração
e Transmissão de Energia S.A.(“AMTG11”) (a company incorporated by Eletronorte), the debtor balance of which is R$
180,555,025.25, (b) 2ª (second) issue of simple debentures, non-convertible into shares, of the uncovered species, in a single series,
for public distribution, with restricted efforts of Eletronorte, whose debtor balance is R$ 333,332,700.44 (“ELTN12”
and, in conjunction with “AMTG11”, the “Issuances”) according to the General Terms and conditions described
in the minutes of RCA; and (ii) the granting of a fiduciary guarantee by Eletrobras, as a guarantor and principal payer,
responsible for the full and timely fulfillment of all Eletronorte's obligations under the issuances mentioned in item (I) above.
In addition, it
is noteworthy that the mentioned reprofiling operation had its conclusion on the present date, thus resulting in the lengthening
of the term of these Eletronorte liabilities in 5 (five) years from this date, having, therefore, its new maturity in 2028, and with a
reduction in the current interest rates (CDI + 2.75% per year for AMTG11 and CDI + 2.60% per year for ELTN12) under these contracts
for CDI + 2.17% per year.
This operation is
aligned with the debt management strategy by lengthening the deadline and reducing the cost.
The minutes
of RCA with the entire approved subject matter is filed at the Company's headquarters and on the CVM (www.cvm.gov.br) and Company's
(www.eletrobras.com) websites.
The Company
will keep the market informed of the subject matter dealt with in this Market Announcement.
