​

​
Hereby resolve to execute, for the reasons and purposes detailed below in the form of articles 224 and 225 of Law no. 6.404, of December 15, 1976, as amended ("Corporation Law"), and pursuant to the Material Fact notice disclosed on this date, the present instrument of protocol and justification ("Protocol and Justification"), having as purpose the corporate reorganization aiming at the migration of its shareholding base to Inter&Co, with the listing of its shares on Nasdaq, a stock exchange in the United States, and the trading of BDRs Level I, issued in accordance with CVM Instruction 332, of April 4, 2000, as amended, backed by Class A Shares (as defined below) issued by Inter&Co ("BDRs"), on B3 - Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão S.A. ("B3") ("Corporate Reorganization"), according to the steps listed below and as determined by Official Letter 141/2021-DIE, issued by B3 - Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão S.A. ("B3") on April 12, 2021 ("1st B3 Official Letter"), by Official Letter no. 13/2022-DIE, dated January 19, 2022, adding to and supplementing the terms of the Original B3 Official Letter ("2nd B3 Official Letter") and by Official Letter no. 122/2022-DIE, dated April 13, 2022 ("3rd B3 Official Letter" and, jointly with the 1st B3 Official Letter and the 2nd B3 Official Letter, "B3 Official Letters"), whereby: (i) the 2nd B3 Official authorized the Cash-Out Cap Cash (as defined below), the Apportionment structure (as defined
​

​

below) and the introduction of shareholder legitimation rules for purposes of the Cash-Out Option (as defined below); and (ii) the 3rd B3 Official allowed that the Inter shares held by Softbank Latin America Fund ("SoftBank") be included in the concept of Outstanding Shares, reforming on this point the 1st B3 Official, but did not express itself regarding the possibility of SoftBank exercising its voting rights.
​
	1.
	REASONS OR PURPOSES AND INTEREST OF THE COMPANIES AND APPROVAL OF THE CORPORATE REORGANIZATION


​
	1.1.
	Motives or Purposes and Interests of Companies


​
1.1.1.Inter&Co's corporate structure, following the completion of the Corporate Reorganization, is intended to allow Inter to implement its business and growth strategy while ensuring compliance with the regulatory requirements of the Central Bank of Brazil ("Central Bank"). Central Bank regulations require that Brazilian financial institutions are required to have a controlling shareholder or controlling group defined and approved before the Central Bank. In addition, Brazilian corporate law does not permit companies to issue non-voting preferred shares in excess of 50% of their total capital stock. In this context, Inter's controlling shareholder currently and indirectly holds 53.1% of the total ordinary shares and 8.9% of Inter's preferred shares, with a total interest in the capital stock of 31.1%.  For this reason, Inter's ability to raise additional capital to finance its growth strategy without diluting its controlling shareholder's ownership below 50% of the voting capital is limited.
​
1.1.2.Upon completion of the Corporate Restructuring, Inter's controlling shareholder will control Inter&Co and, indirectly, Inter, through ownership of Class B Shares, which are entitled to 10 votes per share. Due to the regulation applicable to Banco Inter, this structure is being proposed with the main objective of allowing it to raise additional capital in the future by issuing equity instruments, especially shares, in order to implement its growth strategy, thus preserving the governance and control structure required by the Central Bank.
​
	1.2.
	Approval of Corporate Reorganization


​
1.2.1Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Merger Agreement, the Boards of Directors of the Companies, ad referendum of the Shareholders' Meetings of the respective Companies, shall approve the Corporate Reorganization and submit to the shareholders of the Companies the proposed Corporate Reorganization, whose steps are detailed below.
​
	2.
	DESCRIPTION OF THE CORPORATE REORGANIZATION

​
		(i)
	a class redeemable in BDRs (as defined below), pursuant to the BDR Option (as defined below), and


​
		(ii)
	the other class redeemable in cash pursuant to the Cash-Out Option (as defined below) ("Redeemable PNs).

​
2.1.1.1(c). The Cash-Out Option will be limited to one billion, one hundred thirty-one million, one hundred eighty-nine thousand, fifty-four reais and sixty centavos (R$1,131,189,054.60), an amount equivalent to ten percent (10%) of the total amount of Outstanding Shares2 , calculated based on the economic value of the Inter shares defined in the Cash-Out Report (as defined below) ("Cash-Out Cap").
​
2.1.1.1(d). The Cash-Out Option will be:
​
(i) made available only and exclusively to Inter's shareholders that hold shares issued by it on April 15, 2022, which is the date of disclosure by Inter of a Material Fact on the resumption of the Corporate Reorganization ("Cut-off Date" and "Legitimate Shareholders", respectively); and

B3 issued, on April 13, 2022, the 3rd B3 Official Letter, which reformed part of the 1st B3 Official Letter to allow the shareholder SoftBank to integrate the concept of Outstanding Shares.

​
2.1.1.1(f). In case, after the manifestation of the Legitimate Shareholders who validly opt for the Cash-Out Option, it represents a disbursement to HoldFin:
​
(i) in an amount less than or equal to the Cash-Out Cap, then the Legitimate Shareholders will receive exclusively Cash-Out Option Redeemable PNs, which will be redeemed by payment in cash of the economic value of the Inter shares as determined pursuant to the Cash-Out Report (as defined below); or
​
(ii) in an amount greater than the Cash-Out Cap, then the Legitimate Shareholders will automatically receive: (x) the PNs Redeemable corresponding to the Cash-Out Option, proportionally prorated among them ("Apportionment"), so that, in any case, the maximum disbursement will be equivalent to the Cash-Out Cap; and (y) PNs Redeemable in BDRs backed by Class A Shares (as defined below), in an amount apt to supplement the balance of the Cash-Out Option not met due to the Apportionment. In case of Apportionment of PNs redeemable in BDRs backed by Class A Shares, Inter must inform the market of the result of the Apportionment of such shares up to 2 (two) business days after the end of the period for acceptance of the Cash-Out Option.
​
2.1.1.1(g). The Cash-Out Option will not be available: (i) to Inter's shareholders other than the Legitimate Shareholders; and (ii) to shares and/or units (x) acquired after the Cut-Off Date; and/or (y) that exceed the Limit on the Amount of Shares. In such cases, the BDR Option (as defined below) will apply.
​
2.1.1.1(h). Investors with a donating position of Inter shares on the Cut-off Date, in the scope of share loan transactions, will be considered Legitimate Shareholders both for purposes of the Cash-Out Option and for the definition of the Share Amount Limit, and will be entitled to exercise the Cash-Out Option. To this end, such shareholders must have the Inter's share position deposited at B3's central depository at the time of their decision to exercise the Cash-Out Option. Thus, the corresponding borrowing investors will not be considered as Legitimate Shareholders in the respective amounts of their outstanding loan positions on the Cut-off Date , nor for the definition of the Stock Quantity Limit.

Each Redeemable PN Share issued by HoldFin will be redeemed through the delivery of 1 (one) BDR; or
​
(ii)the amount of R$38.70 (thirty-eight reais and seventy centavos) per Redeemable PN, corresponding to six (6) times3 the economic value per preferred and/or common share of Inter, established pursuant to the terms of the Cash-Out Report (as defined below) , subject to the Cash-Out Cap and the Apportionment procedure, with the referred amount of R$38.70 (thirty-eight reais and seventy cents) subject to adjustment by the DI rate from the date on which the New Reorganization EGM is held (as defined below) up to the date of the effective payment ("Cash-Out Option").

	R$38.70 (thirty-eight reais and seventy cents), corresponding to the Cash-Out Option Value, which will be subject to updating by the DI rate from the date on which the New Reorganization EGM is held until the date of actual payment.


​
4.1.4 In addition, Report 264 (as defined below) was prepared to calculate, on a comparative basis, the replacement ratio of Inter's shareholders' shares for HoldFin shares, valuing the two assets according to the same criteria and on the Base Date (as defined below), based on the
​

15



​

discounted cash flow criterion. According to Report 264 (as defined below), by the discounted cash flow methodology on the Base Date, as provided for in article 8, item II, of CVM Instruction No. 565, of June 15, 2015, as amended ("ICVM 565"): (a) the value of Inter is R$ 44,132 million; and (b) the value of HoldFin is R$ 13,881 million.
​
4.1.5. Thus: (a) the application of the theoretical share replacement ratio based on such comparative criterion would result in the exchange of 6 (six) Inter shares (preferred or common) or 2 (two) Inter units for 1 (one) Redeemable PN Share issued by HoldFin, such ratio being equivalent to the Share Merger Replacement Ratio; (b) for this reason, the option referred to in article 264, paragraph 3, of the Brazilian Corporation Law is not available to the dissenting shareholder of Inter; and, therefore, (c) the reimbursement, for those exercising the Right of Withdrawal, will be calculated based on the equity book value of the Inter share .
​
4.1.6. Any fractions of BDRs resulting from the Merger of Shares, followed by the Redemption with delivery of the BDRs, shall be grouped in whole numbers to be sold in the spot market managed by B3 after the consummation of the Corporate Reorganization, pursuant to a notice to shareholders to be disclosed by Inter. The amounts earned in said sale will be made available net of fees to the former Inter Shareholders holding the respective fractions, in proportion to their interest in each security sold. No additional amounts in cash or shares (or BDRs) will be paid by Inter&Co to Inter's Shareholders who opt for the BDR Option. The amount resulting from such sale of tranches may be less than the Cash-Out Option.
​
4.2. Appraisers; Appraisal Reports
​
4.2.1. The independent members of Inter's Board of Directors separately evaluated and recommended to Inter's Board of Directors, and all members of the Board of Directors approved, unanimously and without any restrictions, the hiring of PricewaterhouseCoopers Corporate Finance & Recovery Ltda, headquartered at Avenida Francisco Matarazzo 1.400, Torre Torino, City of São Paulo, State of São Paulo, registered with the CNPJ under no. 05.487.514/0001-37 ("PwC" or "Appraiser"), to prepare the appraisal report containing the evaluations indicated below, in compliance with the terms of the B3 Notices:

​
		(ii)

​

​

Report on April 14, 2022, having calculated a value of R$6.45 (six reais and forty-five cents) per share issued by Inter, or R$19.35 (nineteen reais and thirty-five cents) per unit. The Report 264 underwent the necessary updates in relation to the value of the shares issued by Inter and HoldFin, evaluating both equity based on the discounted cash flow methodology on the Base Date.
​
4.2.3. The independent members of the Board of Directors of Inter, separately, evaluated and recommended to the Board of Directors of Inter, , which approved, unanimously and without any restrictions, the contracting of KPMG Auditores Independentes, with head office at Rua Arquiteto Olavo Redig de Campos, 105, 6th floor, tower A, São Paulo, SP, CEP 04711-904, enrolled in the CNPJ under no. 57.755.217/0001-29 ("KPMG" or "Auditor"), to: (a) prepare a report on the value of the shares issued by Inter to be incorporated by HoldFin, within the scope of the Merger of Shares, based on the net book value of the shares issued by Inter, on the Base Date, for purposes of verification of the capital increase of HoldFin, as provided for in article 252 of the Brazilian Corporations Law ("Share Merger Report" and, together with the Cash-Out Report and Report 264, the "Valuation Reports"); and (b) prepare the reasonable assurance report on the pro forma financial information of Inter considering the completion of the Corporate Reorganization, relative to the Base Date, pursuant to article 7 of ICVM 565, which will be included in the management proposal of the New EGM Reorganization.
​
4.2.4 The Appraisal Reports found:
​
		(i)
	the amount of R$6.45 (six reais and forty-five), corresponding to the economic value per Inter preferred and/or common share, as determined by the Cash-Out Report;


​
		(ii)
	the comparative share replacement ratio, based on the discounted cash flow method, of six (6) Inter shares for one (1) HoldFin share, which is the same as that calculated based on the Share Merger Replacement Ratio; and


​
		(iii)
	the amount of R$3.30 (three reais and thirty cents), corresponding to the net book value per Inter preferred and/or common share on the Base Date, as determined by the Share Merger Report.


​
4.2.5 The appointment of PwC and KPMG, as well as the Cash-Out Report, the 264 Report and the Merger of Shares Report shall be submitted for ratification at the New Reorganization EGM, observing the resolution quorums described in item 5.2 below and that will be included in the manual for participation in the New Reorganization EGM to be disclosed by Inter. PwC and KPMG are considered independent experts for the purposes of issuing the Reports within the scope of the Corporate Reorganization.
​
4.2.6 The Auditor and the Appraiser were selected for the work considering, among others, their wide and notorious experience in the preparation of reports and appraisals of this nature. The Auditor and the Appraiser expressly declare (a) there is no current or potential conflict or
​

17



​

communion of interests with the shareholders of the Companies or, further, with respect to the Merger of Shares; and (b) the shareholders or managers of the Companies have not directed, limited, hindered or practiced any acts that have or may have compromised the access, use or knowledge of information, assets, documents or work methodologies relevant to the quality of their conclusions.

Appendix 2.3.3
​
On April 26, 2022, HoldFin obtained a commitment letter from Banco BTG Pactual S.A., Banco Bradesco BBI S.A., Banco Itaú BBA S.A., and Banco ABC S.A. to provide financing to redeem Cash Redeemable Shares up to the amount of the Cash Redemption Threshold.  Pursuant to this commitment letter, HoldFin will pay (i) a commitment fee of 0.2% per year over the commitment amount; (ii) a structuring fee of 0.57% pro rata (90 days) over the commitment amount and (iii) 0.10% of the amount over the effective disbursement.
​
The main expected terms of the Cash-Out Financing are summarized below:
​
	

	​


	​
​



		    
	R$1.15 billion (corresponding to the Cash-Out Cap and the estimated value of the correction by the DI rate between the date of the New AGE Reorganization and the date of conclusion of the Corporate Reorganization).

	​
	​

	Due date
	​
	12 months from disbursement

	​
	​
	​

	Mandatory early redemption (cash sweep)
	​
	Liquidity events, including from equity investments issued by HoldFin or Inter&Co, or reduction of Inter's capital

	​
	​
	​

	Interest
	​
	DI Rate, plus spread of 1.95%

	​
	​
	​

	Nominal Value and Interest Payments
	​
	Expiration (bullet)



​
HoldFin's management expects to repay the Cash-Out Financing with proceeds from a potential public offering of Inter&Co shares, dividends paid by Inter or through a capital reduction of Inter (subject to appropriate regulatory approvals). HoldFin has agreed to initiate, within twenty (20) business days from the date of disbursement, regulatory procedures to obtain approval for a capital reduction of Inter. Such capital reduction will be used to discharge the Cash-Out Financing if other sources of funds are not available on acceptable terms. It is expected that Financing Cash-Out will be collateralized by future receivables from such possible reduction of Inter's capital. Under a commercial agreement, Inter is expected to agree to make certain investments in interbank certificates of deposit issued by Banco BTG Pactual S.A. Banco Itaú BBA S.A. and Banco ABC S.A., remunerated at 100% of the DI rate. These investments will not be collateralized under the Cash-Out Financing.
​

25



​

The binding instrument formalizing the Cash-Out Financing has certain conditions precedent, such as signing of the corresponding definitive agreements, confirmation of HoldFin's representations and warranties, compliance with minimum capital requirements and obligations to pay commissions and other fees. If these conditions are not met, the Corporate Reorganization will not be implemented.
