#### Sendas Distribuidora S.A.
**Up to 254,000,000 Common Shares, including Common Shares represented <br>by American Depositary Shares**

Wilkes Participações S.A., or the Selling Shareholder, is offering a total of up to 254,000,000 common shares of Sendas Distribuidora S.A., or our common shares, which may be represented by American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, each of which represents five of our common shares, or the common ADSs, in a global offering that consists of an international offering outside Brazil and a concurrent public offering with restricted placement efforts in Brazil. The international offering includes a registered offering in the United States. In the international offering, the Selling Shareholder is offering our common shares, which may be represented by the common ADSs. Common ADSs sold in the international offering will be paid for in U.S. dollars. Common shares sold in the international offering will be delivered in Brazil and paid for in *reais*. The closings of the international and Brazilian offerings are conditioned upon each other.

The international underwriters (as defined herein) named in this prospectus supplement are underwriting the sale of common ADSs, which represent common shares. The Brazilian placement agents are placing common shares, including common shares sold in the international offering, to investors within and outside of Brazil. The international placement agents (as defined herein), are acting as international placement agents on behalf of the Brazilian placement agents with respect to the offering of common shares (not including common shares in the form of ADSs) sold outside Brazil.

Our common shares are listed on the São Paulo Stock Exchange (B3 S.A. — Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão), or the B3, under the ticker symbol "ASAI3." The closing price of our common shares on the B3 on March 13, 2023 was R$16.69 per common share, equivalent to US$3.19 per common share, considering an exchange rate as of March 13, 2023, which is R$5.2400 to US$1.00. The common ADSs are listed on The New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE, under the ticker symbol "ASAI." The closing price of the common ADSs on the NYSE on March 13, 2023 was US$15.79 per common ADS.

**PRIIPs Regulation/Prospectus Regulation/Prohibition of sales to EEA retail investors**

Our common shares and the common ADSs are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area ("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor (a "Qualified Investor") as defined in the Prospectus Regulation. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling our common shares and the common ADSs or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling our common shares and the common ADSs or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

This prospectus supplement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of common shares or common ADSs in any Member State will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of common shares and common ADSs. Accordingly, any person making or intending to make any offer within the EEA of common shares or common ADSs which are the subject of the offering contemplated in this prospectus supplement may only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for Sendas, the Selling Shareholder or any of the international underwriters to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Regulation or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 23 of the Prospectus Regulation, in each case, in relation to such offer. None of Sendas, the Selling Shareholder or the international underwriters have authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of common shares or common ADSs in circumstances in which an obligation arises for Sendas, the Selling Shareholder or the international underwriters to publish a prospectus for such offer. None of Sendas, the Selling Shareholder or the international underwriters have authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of common shares or common ADSs through any financial intermediary, other than offers made by the international underwriters, which constitute the final placement of the common shares and common ADSs contemplated in this prospectus supplement.

Each person in a Member State who receives any communication in respect of, or who acquires any common shares or common ADSs under, the offers to the public contemplated in this prospectus supplement, or to whom the common shares or common ADSs are otherwise made available, will be deemed to have represented, warranted, acknowledged and agreed to and with each international underwriter, Sendas and the Selling Shareholder that it and any person on whose behalf it acquires common shares or common ADSs is: (i) a qualified investor within the meaning of Article 2I of the Prospectus Regulation; (ii) in the case of the common ADSs only, not a retail investor (as defined above); and (iii) in the case of any common shares or common ADSs acquired by it as a financial intermediary, as that term is used in Article 5(1) of the Prospectus Regulation, (i) the common shares or common ADSs acquired by it in the offer have not been acquired on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in any Member State other than qualified investors, as that term is defined in the Prospectus Regulation, or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the international underwriters has been given to the offer or resale; or (ii) where the common shares or common ADSs have been acquired by it on behalf of persons in any Member State other than qualified investors, the offer of those common shares or common ADSs to it is not treated under the Prospectus Regulation as having been made to such persons.

We, the Selling Shareholder, the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents, the international placement agents and their affiliates, and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representation, acknowledgment and agreement. Notwithstanding the above, a person who is not a Qualified Investor may, with the consent of the international underwriters, be permitted to purchase our common shares or the common ADSs in the international offering.

In this section, the expression an "offer" in relation to any common shares or common ADSs in any Member State of the EEA means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and our common shares or the common ADSs to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for our common shares or the common ADSs and the expression "Prospectus Regulation" means Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended or superseded).

We will provide without charge to any person to whom a copy of this prospectus supplement is delivered, upon the written or oral request of any such person, a copy of any or all of the documents referred to above which have been or may be incorporated herein by reference, other than exhibits to such documents (unless such exhibits are specifically incorporated by reference in such documents).

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning Sendas, its subsidiaries and other matters. These statements may discuss goals, intentions and expectations as to future plans, trends, events, results of operations or financial conditions, or other matters, based on current beliefs of our management as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts and may be accompanied by words such as "aim," "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "could," "would," "should," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "future," "guidance," "intend," "may," "will," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project" or similar words, phrases or expressions, although the absence of any such words or expressions does not mean that a particular statement is not a forward-looking statement. These statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside the parties' control. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on these statements. Factors that could cause actual plans and results to differ materially from those in these statements include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties detailed in the section of this prospectus supplement entitled "Risk Factors," and in the Form 20-F and other periodic filings with the SEC, and the following factors:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• global economic, political and social conditions, including, for example, the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the potential outbreaks of communicable diseases around the world, and their impacts on the global economy and consumer spending patterns, particularly in Brazil (including, but not limited to, unemployment rates, interest rates, monetary policies and inflation rates);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• competition in the sectors in which we operate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Brazilian government regulation and tax matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• adverse legal or regulatory disputes or proceedings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to implement our strategy, including our digital transformation initiatives;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• credit and other risks of lending and investment activities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the political instability related to the recent election of the President of Brazil with a mandate that started in 2023, including uncertainties in relation to the implementation by the new government of monetary, fiscal and social security policies and the political climate after the result of the election, which has resulted in massive demonstrations and/or strikes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to expand our operations outside of our existing markets; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other risk factors as set forth in the 2022 Form 20-F.

The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that affect the parties' businesses, including those described in this prospectus supplement, and information contained in this prospectus supplement.

Nothing in this prospectus supplement is intended, or is to be construed, as a profit projection or to be interpreted to mean that earnings per share for the current or any future financial years will necessarily match or exceed our historical published earnings per common share.

We are under no obligation, and each expressly disclaims any obligation, to update, alter or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, which may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Persons reading this document are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which only speak as of the date hereof.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION
All references herein to "*real*," "*reais*" or "R$" are to the Brazilian *real*, the official currency of Brazil. All references to "U.S. dollars," "dollars" or "US$" are to U.S. dollars.

#### Financial Statements
The financial information presented in this prospectus supplement has been derived from the audited historical financial statements of Sendas as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes thereto, included in the 2022 Form 20-F incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. We refer to these financial statements and the related notes thereto collectively as our "audited financial statements."

The audited financial statements of Sendas were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, or IASB, and are presented in *reais*.

#### Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
We maintain internal controls practices that seek to keep an adequate monitoring of our internal control environment related to operational and financial processes.

As of the date of this prospectus supplement, we have several internal control practices, such as training for employees about our main compliance rules, the development of action plans with our business areas to mitigate potential reputational risks and relevant future financial losses, the periodic assessment of the main risks related to our technological environment and operational processes, among others. Each of these practices is under the primary responsibility of one of our control areas.

As part of the preparation of our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, certain significant deficiencies in our internal controls were identified. Such significant deficiencies are related to the identification and approval of manual entries and right-of-use assets and lease liabilities measurement. These significant deficiencies are described under "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects — A. Operating Results — Financial Presentation and Accounting Policies — Internal Controls over Financial Reporting" in the 2022 Form 20-F. See also "Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to our Industry and Us — Significant deficiencies in our internal controls have been identified and, if we are unable to take the necessary corrective measures, we may not be able to adequately report our results of operations and this may adversely affect us" in the 2022 Form 20-F.

Notwithstanding the significant deficiencies identified, our management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2022, based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). For additional information, see "Item 15. Controls and Procedures."

#### Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
The effectiveness of Sendas's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, has been audited by Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Auditores Independentes Ltda., which conclude, among other things, that Sendas did maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. Such report is included in the 2022 Form 20-F.

#### Translation of Reais into U.S. Dollars
We have translated certain amounts included in this prospectus supplement from *reais* into U.S. dollars. The exchange rate used to translate such amounts was R$5.2177 to US$1.00, which was the commercial selling rate at closing for the purchase of U.S. dollars on December 31, 2022, as reported by the Central Bank of Brazil. The U.S. dollar equivalent information included in this prospectus supplement is provided solely for convenience of investors and should not be construed as representation that the *real* amounts represent, or have been or could be converted into, U.S. dollars at such rates or at any other rate.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### Rounding
We have made rounding adjustments to reach some of the figures included in this prospectus supplement. As a result, numerical figures shown as totals in some tables may not be arithmetic aggregations of the figures that precede them.

#### Special Note Regarding Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In this prospectus supplement, we present the following non-IFRS financial measures: EBITDA, EBITDA Margin and Net Debt.

EBITDA is defined as net income for the year *plus* income tax and social contribution, net financial result and depreciation and amortization, as defined by our Brazilian regulator, the CVM, pursuant to CVM Resolution No. 156/2022. We consider EBITDA to be a measure of our operating performance. We define EBITDA Margin as EBITDA divided by net operating revenue, expressed as a percentage.

Net Debt is calculated as total debt (the sum of current and non-current borrowings and financing and current and non-current debentures and promissory notes) *less* cash and cash equivalents and current and non-current derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments are used to protect us from possible fluctuations in the interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates to which our debt instruments are exposed. We consider Net Debt to be a financial position measure.

Our management believes that EBITDA, EBITDA Margin and Net Debt, along with comparable IFRS measures, provide useful information to potential investors, financial analysts and the public in their review of our operating performance. Our management uses these Non-IFRS financial measures, along with the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures, in evaluating our operating performance. However, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin and Net Debt are not measures under IFRS and should not be considered as substitutes for net income or loss, cash flow from operations or other measures of operating performance, financial position or liquidity determined in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently than we do, and therefore, our presentation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA, EBITDA Margin and Net Debt are not intended to represent funds available for dividends or other discretionary uses by us because those funds are required for debt service, capital expenditures, working capital needs and other commitments and contingencies. The Non-IFRS financial measures described in this prospectus supplement are not a substitute for the IFRS measures of earnings, for which our management has responsibility.

For more information on the Non-IFRS measures presented in this prospectus supplement, including reconciliations to applicable IFRS measures, see "Summary Financial Information — Non-IFRS Financial Measures.

This financial information should be read in conjunction with the information set forth under "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects," "Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk," and our audited financial statements and the related notes thereto, included in our 2022 Form 20-F.

#### Special Note Regarding Certain Operational Metrics
This prospectus supplement presents information regarding our:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• total selling area;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• average selling area per store;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• same store gross sales; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• average monthly gross revenue per square meter.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

We define total selling area as the sum of the selling area of each store at a period end. We define average selling area per store as the total selling area at a period end divided by total number of stores at a period end. Total selling area information and average selling area per store information are prepared and presented as important indicators of the size of our business. Moreover, we believe tracking average selling area per store enables our management to evaluate performance metrics per store and can provide useful information to investors, securities analysts and the public in their review of our operating performance.

We define same store gross sales as sales made in stores opened for at least 12 months and which have not been closed or remained closed for a period of seven or more consecutive days. Same store gross sales information is prepared and presented as an important indicator of the maturation of our stores. Tracking same store gross sales enable our management to evaluate the performance of our organic expansion and we believe can provide useful information to investors, securities analysts and the public in their review of our operating performance.

We define average monthly gross revenue per square meter as gross revenue for the period allocated by store divided by the average selling area (in square meters) for the period taking into account our store opening schedule. Average monthly gross revenue per square meter is an important indicator of our operating performance on a unit basis and the efficiency of our operations and we believe can provide useful information to investors, securities analysts and the public in their review of our operating performance.

Information regarding total selling area, average selling area per store, same store gross sales and average monthly gross revenue per square meter should be analyzed in conjunction with other operating and financial metrics, and should not be considered as a measure of performance in isolation. Additionally, our calculation of these measures may be different from the calculation used by other companies, including our competitors. Because other companies may not calculate these measures in the same manner as we do, our measures may not be comparable to those of other companies.

#### Overview
According to the Brazilian Association of Self-Service Wholesale (*Associação Brasileira dos Atacadistas de Autosserviço*), or ABAAS, we were the largest pure cash and carry player in Brazil in terms of consolidated gross revenue in the year ended December 31, 2021 and the second largest retailer in Brazil. We were also named the best wholesaler by São Paulo customers, according to Datafolha research "The Best of São Paulo Services 2022," and the 21<sup>st</sup> largest company in Brazil in 2022 according to the Exame magazine. We were also recognized as one of the most valuable brands in Brazil, reaching the 15<sup>th</sup> place in the Brazil 100 ranking published by Brand Finance in 2022, one of the 10 best Brazilian companies to work for in retail (in the "Giants" category according to Great Place of Work (GPTW) 2022); and ranked 1<sup>st</sup> in the sustainability and governance rankings in the "Wholesale" category of the *Estadão Empresa Mais* ranking 2022.

We serve as an economic center for the regions in which we operate. Our cash and carry operations involve sales of more than 8,000 items of grocery, food, perishable, beverage, wrapping and hygiene products, among others. In addition, our stores offer ample parking, air-conditioning, well-lit environments and over 150 stores have butcher services.

Our customers include prepared food retailers (including restaurants, pizzerias and snack bars), end users (including schools, small businesses, religious institutions, hospitals and hotels), conventional retailers (such as grocery stores and neighborhood supermarkets) and individuals.

The chart below sets forth our growth in the past decade. In the year ended December 31, 2022, our gross operating revenue (defined as net operating revenue before returns and sales cancellations and taxes (note 21 to the audited consolidated financial statements of Sendas) totaled R$59.7 billion, a 30.7% increase compared to the year ended December 31, 2021.

![](tbarchart_001.jpg)

____________

*Note:* Gross operating revenue for each fiscal year refers to the years ended December 31.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

Our operations strongly expanded throughout Brazil. As of December 31, 2022, we operated a total of 263 stores throughout 23 Brazilian states and the Federal District, having a total selling area of approximately 1.3 million square meters of total sales area, representing approximately a 36% increase in the last 12 months. In addition, we have 12 distribution centers and more than 73 thousand employees, including current and absent employees, interns, and underage apprentices. In comparison, in 2012 we operated 61 stores in six Brazilian states and had approximately 182 thousand square meters in total sales area.

The opening of new stores and our organic growth since 2020 corresponded to a significant increase in the number of transactions (tickets), from approximately 179 million tickets in 2020 to approximately 234 million in 2022, representing a compound annual growth rate of 14.3%. We received more than 30 million customers monthly in our stores in 2022.

![](tbarchart_002.jpg)

____________

(1) A ticket is equivalent to a purchase made at an *Assaí* store.

(2) Calculated by the ratio between the number in 2022 and the number in 2020 raised by 1 divided by the number of years passed, minus 1 (234 *divided by* 17, raised to 1 *divided by* 2, *minus* 1).

We reported the highest average monthly gross revenue per square meter in 2022 (which is defined as gross revenue for the period divided by the average selling area (in square meters) for the period taking into account our store opening schedule) among the publicly listed cash and carry players in Brazil, as set forth below:

#### Average Monthly Gross Revenue per Square Meter<br> (thousands of R$ / square meter)
____________

*Sources:* Companies' public information.

(1) We define average monthly gross revenue per square meter as gross revenue for the period allocated by store divided by the average selling area (in square meters) for the period taking into account our store opening schedule.

(2) For Atacadão and Mix Atacarejo, the chart considers the average monthly revenue divided by the total area in 2022. These figures may not be comparable to those calculated using our methodology.

In addition, we also reported the highest profitability in 2022 (as measured by EBITDA Margin) among the publicly listed cash and carry players in Brazil, as set forth below:

#### EBITDA Margin <sup>(1)</sup> in the year ended December 31, 2022<br> (% of net operating revenue)
____________

*Sources:* Companies' public information for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(1) EBITDA Margin is defined as EBITDA divided by net operating revenue, expressed as a percentage. EBITDA Margin is a Non-IFRS financial measure, and our calculation of EBITDA Margin may be different than our competitors, including the publicly listed cash and carry players in Brazil indicated in the graphic above. For further information on why our management uses Non-IFRS financial measures, and on the limits of using these Non-IFRS financial measures, please see "Presentation of Financial and Other Information — Special Note Regarding Non-IFRS Financial Measures." For a reconciliation to applicable IFRS measures, see "Summary Financial Information — Non-IFRS Financial Measures." For Atacadão and Grupo Mateus, the chart considers Adjusted EBITDA Margin, as publicly reported by each company.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### Our Business Model
As set forth in the chart below, our business model is flexible and it can adapted to our different target customers and regions through different formats. We stand out for our decentralized logistics system, where most of our inventory is delivered in the store, and low cost structure, which we believe generates efficiency and productivity. Through FIC, a Brazilian company that provides financial services in our stores, with exclusive rights to offer credit cards, financial services and insurance policies (except for extended warranties), we also provide financial services, with approximately 2.3 million *Passaí* credit cards issued as of December 31, 2022, representing approximately 4.4% of our gross sales in stores during the year ended December 31, 2022.

**Different *Assaí* Formats (Sales Area)**

Our regional model is operated through 11 local offices managed by leaders with autonomy in decision making. This model aims to tailor our product mix and communications according to each region.

Of the 263 stores we operated as of December 31, 2022, 31 stores ranged from 1,000 to 3,000 square meters of selling area, a format we believe is best suited to enable our food service provider customers to quickly replace their supplies; 88 stores ranged from 3,000 to 5,000 square meters of selling area, a format we believe is best suited to big families in urban centers; and 144 stores ranged from 5,000 to 9,000 square meters of selling area, a format we believe is best suited for bulk purchases.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

Over the years, we have seen an increase in productivity in stores as a result of investments in better locations and purchasing experience, including lighting, air conditioning, equipment, process automation, expansion of sortiments, inclusion of services (such as butcher's, cold dish emporium, wineries), among others. However, as set forth in the chart below, the improvement in customer's purchasing experience, with innovations in our sortiments services, did not significantly change our level of expenses, which contributed to the generation of an increase in EBITDA Margin, as set forth below.

#### SG&A and EBITDA Margin <sup>(1)</sup> (% of Net Operating Revenue)
![](timage_003.jpg)

____________

(1) EBITDA Margin is defined as EBITDA divided by net operating revenue, expressed as a percentage. EBITDA Margin is a Non-IFRS financial measure. For further information on why our management uses Non-IFRS financial measures, and on the limits of using these Non-IFRS financial measures, please see "Presentation of Financial and Other Information — Special Note Regarding Non-IFRS Financial Measures." For a reconciliation of EBITDA Margin for the year ended December 31, 2022 to the applicable IFRS measures, see "Summary Financial Information — Non-IFRS Financial Measures."

We are evolving in our digital transformation through the development of a seamless buying experience. We are currently investing in: (1) Wi-Fi infrastructure in all of our stores; (2) self-check-out; (3) digital sales through partnerships with last-mile operators; and (4) developing the *Meu Assaí* (My Assaí) app, intensifying our "phygital" strategy to combine physical and digital experiences.

We generate all of our operating revenues in Brazil. Prior to the corporate reorganization completed on December 31, 2020, we also generated a share of our operating revenues from our retail operations in Colombia, Argentina and Uruguay, as a result of the acquisition of Éxito on November 27, 2019. For more information about this corporate reorganization, see "Item 4. Information on the Company — A. History and Development of the Company — History — The Spin-Off — Corporate Reorganization" in the 2022 Form 20-F, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

#### Growth Strategy
We have shown consistent growth in recent years. In the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded an expansion of more than 60 stores, compared to 28 stores in the year ended December 31, 2021 and 19 stores in the year ended December 31, 2020. In addition, in the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded a 31% growth, comprising a 10.3% same store growth and a 20.6% store expansion growth.

In addition, the acquisition of 66 *Extra Hiper* commercial points/stores converted, or to be converted, into *Assaí* banner stores accelerated our growth plan, since it added more than 400 thousand square meters to our total sales area with low cannibalization of our existing stores. The map below sets fort the privileged locations of the stores acquired which are mainly located in capitals, metropolitan regions or large cities in Brazil.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### Extra Hiper Stores to be Converted
Based on our results for the year ended December 31, 2022, our converted stores with an average of two months of operation present an uplift of sales between 2 and 2.5 times against sales in hypermarkets format (pre-conversion). In addition, our converted stores have an accelerated maturation when compared to our organic stores expansion, with approximately one year for sales and completion of the maturation process in 2 years for converted stores, compared to approximately 5 years for organic stores openings. We estimate having spent approximately R$60 million in capital expenditures for converted stores compared to approximately R$80 million for organic stores in the same period.

#### Robust Unit Economics in Organic Openings and Conversions
____________

(1) Gross operating revenue per stores based on our past performance in mature stores for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Stores converted in 2022, with an average of two months of operation, are among our main stores in terms of sales and client flow. The combination of the successful business model, *Assaí* banner strength and the attractiveness of trading points resulted in rapid customer engagement.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

As set forth in the table below, we expect that short-term conversions will play a relevant role in our future based on planned organic expansion and conversion timeline.

#### Principal Merits of the Offering to Us and our Shareholders
Following the offering, it is expected that there will be: (1) a consolidation of our trajectory to strengthen our corporate governance; (2) changes to the composition of our board of directors to reflect the participation of our stakeholders, which changes are expected to be announced on March 28, 2023 in the call notice for our annual general shareholders' meeting (see "— Changes to the Composition of our Board of Directors" below); (3) an entry opportunity for new high-quality investors combined with the possibility of increased exposure from our current shareholders; (4) a potential increase in the liquidity of our free float of around 27% (calculated by dividing (i) the estimated free float considering a total offering of R$4,239 million (254,000,000 common shares), based on the closing price as of March 13, 2023 of R$16.69 per common share, by (ii) the current number of our free float shares); and (5) an increase in our participation in indices linked to Brazil, Latin America and emerging markets as a result of our increased post-offering free float.

#### Changes to the Composition of our Board of Directors
Subject to the completion of the offering, we will propose a change to the composition of our board of directors to reflect our new shareholders participation. Such change proposal is expected to be announced on March 28, 2023 in the call notice for our annual general shareholders' meeting.

We expect to propose that the new board of directors be composed of a majority of independent members with complementary skills, who are diverse and whose compensation will be aligned with market practices, reflecting the skills necessary to meet our future challenges, including: strategy and business, finance, audit/risk, ESG (with a governance focus), innovation/technology and people/compensation. As a result, in addition to our chief executive officer (Mr. Belmiro Gomes), our board of directors would have six independent members and two members appointed by Casino.

#### Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In this prospectus supplement, we present the following non-IFRS financial measures: EBITDA, EBITDA Margin and Net Debt.

A Non-IFRS financial measure is generally defined as a numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flow that purports to measure financial performance that excludes or includes amounts that would not be so adjusted in the most comparable IFRS measure. For further information on why our management uses these Non-IFRS financial measures, and on the limits of using these Non-IFRS financial measures, please see "Presentation of Financial and Other Information — Special Note Regarding Non-IFRS Financial Measures."

The table below sets forth a reconciliation of our net income to EBITDA and EBITDA Margin.

#### RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

#### Capital Increase
On February 15, 2023, our board of directors approved the issuance of 59,870 new common shares due to the exercise of stock options granted to certain employees under the terms of our share-based compensation plans, increasing our total outstanding common shares to 1,349,225,264 common shares and our total capital stock by R$0.7 million, from R$1,263.2 million to R$1,263.9 million.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### RISK FACTORS
*An investment in our common shares and the common ADSs involves a high degree of risk. The 2022 Form 20*-F *includes extensive risk factors relating to our operations, our industry and Brazil, as well as risk factors relating to our common shares and common ADSs. You should carefully consider those risks and the risks described below, as well as the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, before making a decision to invest in our common shares or the common ADSs. Please see "Where You Can Find More Information" and "Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference" for information on where you can find the documents we have filed with or furnished to the SEC and which are incorporated into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus by reference. You should also carefully review the cautionary statements referred to under "Forward*-Looking *Statements."*

*Our business, reputation, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any of these risks. The market price of our common shares or the common ADSs could decline due to any of these risks or other factors, and you may lose all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties of which we are not presently aware or that we currently deem immaterial could also affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If any of these risks occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects could be materially affected.*

#### Risks Relating to Our Common Shares and the Common ADSs
***The volatility and illiquidity of the Brazilian securities markets and of our common shares may substantially limit your ability to sell our common shares underlying the common ADSs at the price and time you desire.***

Investing in securities that are traded in emerging markets, including in Brazil, often involves greater risk and are generally considered to be more speculative in nature than investing in securities traded in the securities markets of more developed countries. These investments are subject to certain economic and political risks, including: (1) changes in the regulatory, tax, economic and political environment that may affect the ability of investors to obtain a total or partial return on their investments; and (2) restrictions on foreign investment and return of capital invested.

The Brazilian securities market is substantially smaller, less liquid, more volatile and more concentrated than major international securities markets, including the securities market of the United States. Furthermore, the regulations of B3 may differ from what foreign investors are accustomed to seeing in other international exchanges. The characteristics of the Brazilian securities market may substantially limit the ability of holders of our common shares underlying the common ADSs to sell them at the time and price they desire and, consequently, may adversely affect the market price of the our common shares and the common ADSs. If a liquid and active trading market is not developed or maintained, the trading price of our common shares and the common ADSs may be negatively affected.

***We cannot assure you that an active trading market will be sustained for our common shares or the common ADSs or that we will be able to maintain our listing on the B3 or the NYSE. The trading volume of our common shares and the common ADSs may be volatile, and holders of our common shares and the common ADSs may not be able to sell their respective securities.***

Our common shares are listed on the *Novo Mercado* listing segment of the B3, and the common ADSs are listed on the NYSE. The listing of our common shares and the common ADSs on the B3 and the NYSE, respectively, does not guarantee that a market for our common shares or the common ADSs will be sustained or that we will be able to maintain our listing on the B3 or the NYSE. No assurance can be provided as to the demand for or trading price of our common shares or the common ADSs.

The trading price of and demand for our common shares and the common ADSs and the continued existence of a market and favorable price for our common shares and the common ADSs depend on a number of conditions, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the risk factors described in the 2022 Form 20-F;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general social, economic and political conditions internationally and in Brazil, including fiscal and monetary policies to be adopted by the new government in Brazil, changes in interest and exchange rates and impacts on the global economy resulting from the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly and annual results and those of our competitors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our businesses, operations, results and prospects;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• future mergers and strategic alliances;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• market conditions in the Brazilian cash and carry industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in government regulation, taxes, legal proceedings or other developments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• shortfalls in our operating results from levels forecasted by securities analysts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• investor sentiment toward the stock of companies in our industry in general;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• announcements concerning us or our competitors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• maintenance of acceptable credit ratings or credit quality; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the general state of the securities markets.

Any of these factors may impair the sustainability of a liquid market for our common shares or the common ADSs and the ability of investors to sell our common shares or the common ADSs at an attractive price. These factors also could cause the market price and demand for our common shares and the common ADSs to fluctuate substantially, which may negatively affect the price and liquidity of our common shares and the common ADSs. Many of these factors and conditions are beyond our or our shareholders' control.

***If securities or industry analysts publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about us or our businesses, the price and trading volume of our common shares and the common ADSs could decline.***

The trading market for our common shares and the common ADSs will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our businesses. If one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our securities or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our businesses, the price of our common shares and the common ADSs would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our common shares and the common ADSs could decrease, which might cause the price and trading volume of our common shares and the common ADSs to decline.

***Future sales, or the perception of future sales, of substantial amounts of our common shares on the B3 or the common ADSs on the NYSE, or the anticipation of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common shares and the common ADSs prevailing from time to time or their liquidity and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of equity securities, and our directors and officers are not subject to any lock-up agreements in connection with the global offering.***

Sendas and the Selling Shareholder are subject to lock-up agreements that restrict or limit their ability to issue (in the case of Sendas) and sell common shares, including common shares represented by common ADSs, into the market for 90 days after the date of this prospectus supplement, subject to certain exceptions. However, none of Sendas's directors, officers or other shareholders are subject to any lock-up agreement that would restrict or limit their ability to sell common shares or common ADSs held by any of them. For more information, see "Underwriting — Lock-up Agreements." The market price of our common shares and the common ADSs could decline significantly as a result of sales (or anticipated sales) of a large number of shares of our common shares on the B3 or the common ADSs on the NYSE. The perception that these sales, or any other sales by Sendas or its insiders, might occur could depress the market price of our common shares or the common ADSs prevailing from time to time or adversely affect their liquidity. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.

***If you exchange the common ADSs for our common shares, as a result of Brazilian regulations you may risk losing the ability to remit foreign currency abroad.***

Holders of the common ADSs will benefit from the electronic certificate of foreign capital registration obtained by the Brazilian custodian of our common shares underlying the common ADSs, or the ADS Custodian, in Brazil for our common shares underlying the common ADSs, which will permit the Sendas ADS Custodian to convert dividends

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

and other distributions with respect to our common shares into U.S. dollars and remit the proceeds abroad. If you surrender your common ADSs and withdraw our common shares, you will be entitled to continue to rely on the Sendas ADS Custodian's electronic certificate of foreign capital registration for only five business days from the date of withdrawal. Thereafter, upon the disposition of or distributions relating to our common shares, you will not be able to remit abroad non-Brazilian currency unless you obtain your own electronic certificate of foreign capital registration or you qualify under Brazilian foreign investment regulations that entitle some foreign investors to buy and sell common shares on Brazilian stock exchanges without obtaining separate electronic certificates of foreign capital registration. If you do not qualify under the foreign investment regulations, you will generally be subject to less favorable tax treatment of dividends and distributions on, and the proceeds from any sale of, our common shares.

If you attempt to obtain your own electronic certificate of foreign capital registration, you may incur expenses or suffer delays in the application process, which could delay your ability to receive dividends or distributions relating to our common shares or the return of your capital in a timely manner. The depositary's electronic certificate of foreign capital registration may also be adversely affected by future legislative changes. See "Item 10. Additional Information — D. Exchange Controls" of the 2022 Form 20-F, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

#### Holders of the common ADSs are not entitled to attend shareholders' meetings and may only vote through the ADS Depositary.
Under Brazilian law, only shareholders registered as such in Sendas's corporate books may attend Sendas's shareholders' meetings. All of our common shares underlying the common ADSs are registered in the name of the ADS Depositary. Consequently, a holder of common ADSs is not entitled to attend Sendas's shareholders' meetings. Holders of common ADSs may exercise the voting rights with respect to our common shares only in accordance with the Sendas Deposit Agreement. There are practical limitations upon the ability of holders of common ADSs to exercise their voting rights due to the additional steps involved in communicating with holders of common ADSs. For example, Sendas is required to publish a notice of Sendas's shareholders' meetings in certain newspapers in Brazil. To the extent that holders of our common shares are entitled to vote at a shareholders' meeting, they will be able to exercise their voting rights by attending the meeting in person or voting by proxy. By contrast, holders of common ADSs s will receive notice of a shareholders' meeting by mail from the ADS Depositary following Sendas's notification to the ADS Depositary of the shareholders' meeting and Sendas's request that the ADS Depositary inform holders of common ADSs of the shareholders' meeting. To exercise their voting rights, holders of common ADSs must instruct the ADS Depositary on a timely basis. In addition, investors may hold the common ADSs through broker or financial institution nominees and therefore may be required to rely on their procedures to be able to vote. This voting process will take longer for holders of common ADSs than for holders of our common shares. If the ADS Depositary fails to receive timely voting instructions for all or part of the common ADSs, the ADS Depositary will assume that the holders of those common ADSs s are instructing it to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by us to vote their common ADSs, except in limited circumstances. In addition, Sendas is not contractually required to request the ADS Depositary to inform holders of common ADSs about the shareholders' meeting under the Sendas Deposit Agreement, which may result in holders of common ADSs not being able to provide voting instructions to the ADS Depositary.

We cannot assure you that holders of common ADSs will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that such holders can instruct the ADS Depositary to vote our common shares underlying their common ADSs. In addition, the ADS Depositary and its agents are not responsible for failing to carry out voting instructions of the holders of common ADSs or for the manner of carrying out those voting instructions. Accordingly, holders of common ADSs may not be able to exercise voting rights, and they will have no recourse if our common shares underlying their common ADSs are not voted as requested.

***Holders of common ADSs may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the Sendas Deposit Agreement, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any such action.***

The Sendas Deposit Agreement, provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, holders of common ADSs irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the right to a jury trial with respect to any claim that they may have against us or the ADS Depositary arising out of or relating to our common shares, the common ADSs or the Sendas Deposit Agreement, including any claim under the U.S. federal securities laws.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

If we or the ADS Depositary opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, the court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable based on the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with the applicable state and federal law. To our knowledge, the enforceability of a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver in connection with claims arising under the federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by the United States Supreme Court. However, we believe that a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision is generally enforceable, including under the laws of the State of New York, which govern the Sendas Deposit Agreement, by a federal or state court in the City of New York, which has exclusive jurisdiction over matters arising under the Sendas Deposit Agreement with respect to any legal suit, action or proceeding brought by the holders of common ADSs against or involving us or the ADS Depositary. In determining whether to enforce a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision, courts will generally consider whether a party knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waived the right to a jury trial. We believe that this is the case with respect to the Sendas Deposit Agreement and the common ADSs. It is advisable that you consult your legal counsel regarding the jury waiver provision before entering into the Sendas Deposit Agreement.

If you or any other holders or beneficial owners of common ADSs bring a claim against us or the ADS Depositary in connection with matters arising under the Sendas Deposit Agreement or the common ADSs, including claims under federal securities laws, you or such other holder or beneficial owner may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to such claims, which may have the effect of limiting and discouraging lawsuits against us or the ADS Depositary. If a lawsuit is brought against us or the ADS Depositary under the Sendas Deposit Agreement, it may be heard only by a judge or justice of the applicable trial court, which would be conducted according to different civil procedures and may result in different outcomes than a trial by jury would have had, including results that could be less favorable to the plaintiff(s) in any such action.

Nevertheless, if this jury trial waiver provision is not permitted by applicable law, an action could proceed under the terms of the Sendas Deposit Agreement with a jury trial. No condition, stipulation or provision of the Sendas Deposit Agreement or the common ADSs serves as a waiver by any holder or beneficial owner of common ADSs or by us or the ADS Depositary of compliance with any substantive provision of the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

***You might be unable to exercise preemptive rights with respect to our common shares underlying the common ADSs, as a result of which your investment may be diluted.***

You will not be able to exercise the preemptive rights relating to our common shares underlying the common ADSs unless a registration statement under the Securities Act is effective with respect to the securities to be issued upon the exercise of those rights, or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available. We are not obligated to file a registration statement or to take any action to make preemptive rights available to holders of common ADSs. Unless we file a registration statement or an exemption from registration applies, you may receive only the net proceeds from the sale of your preemptive rights by the ADS Depositary or, if the preemptive rights cannot be sold, they will lapse and you will not receive any value for them. In addition, we may issue a substantial number of common shares as consideration for future acquisitions or for any other fundraising needs, and we may choose not to extend preemptive rights to holders of common ADSs.

To the extent that you are not able (or choose not) to exercise pre-emptive rights granted in connection with an issue of our common shares, your proportional shareholding in our company would be diluted.

#### Holders of our common shares and common ADSs may not receive any dividends.
According to our bylaws, we must pay our shareholders at least 25% of our annual net income as dividends, as determined and adjusted under the Brazilian Corporate Law. This adjusted income may be used to absorb losses or otherwise be appropriated as permitted by the Brazilian Corporate Law and may not be available to be paid as dividends. We may not pay dividends to our shareholders in any particular fiscal year if our board of directors determines that such distributions would be inadvisable in view of our financial condition. For further information, see "Item 8. Financial Information — A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information — Dividends and Dividend Policy" and "Item 10. Additional Information — B. Memorandum and Articles of Association — Allocation of Net Profits and Distribution of Dividends — Distribution of Dividends" and "— Interest on Shareholders' Equity" of the 2022 Form 20-F, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

We are also subject to additional restrictions on dividends distributions in excess of the statutorily required minimum dividend imposed by some of our financial instruments. For further information, see "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects — B. Liquidity and Capital Resources — Indebtedness — Long-Term Indebtedness" of the 2022 Form 20-F, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

The Brazilian Congress is currently analyzing bills providing for the taxation on dividends and the alteration and/or extinction of the payment of interest on shareholders' equity (*juros sobre o capital próprio*). Therefore, both distributed and received dividends may become taxed and the interest on shareholders' equity (*juros sobre o capital próprio*) may be extinguished in the future, impacting the net amount to be received by our shareholders from our financial results.

***U.S. securities laws do not require us to disclose as much information to investors as a U.S. issuer is required to disclose, and you may receive less information about us than you might otherwise receive from a comparable U.S. company.***

We are a "foreign private issuer" under U.S. securities laws. Accordingly, the corporate disclosure requirements applicable to us may not be equivalent to the requirements applicable to a U.S. company and, as a result, you may receive less information about us than you might otherwise receive in connection with a comparable U.S. company. We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act that apply to foreign private issuers. The periodic disclosure required of foreign private issuers under the Exchange Act is more limited than the periodic disclosure required of U.S. issuers. For example, we are required only to file an annual report on Form 20-F, but we are not required to file any quarterly reports. A U.S. registrant must file an annual report on Form 10-K and three quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. In addition, we are required to furnish current reports on Form 6-K, but the information that we must disclose in those reports is governed primarily by Brazilian law disclosure requirements and may differ from Form 8-K's current reporting requirements imposed on a U.S. issuer. Also, any information furnished to the SEC will be subject to more limited liability provisions compared to information generally filed with the SEC by domestic issuers. Finally, we are not subject to the proxy requirements of Section 14 of the Exchange Act and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are not subject to the short swing insider trading reporting and recovery requirements under Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

***Our status as a foreign private issuer exempts us from certain of the corporate governance standards of the NYSE limiting the protections afforded to investors.***

As a foreign private issuer, we are entitled to rely on exceptions from certain corporate governance requirements of the NYSE. Under the NYSE listing rules, a foreign private issuer may elect to comply with the practice of its home country and not to comply with certain NYSE corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that: (1) a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors; (2) a nominating and corporate governance committee be established that is composed entirely of independent directors and has a written charter addressing the committee's purpose and responsibilities; (3) a compensation committee be established that is composed entirely of independent directors and has a written charter addressing the committee's purpose and responsibilities; (4) an annual performance evaluation of the nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees be undertaken; and (5) we comply with all independence requirements applicable to U.S. audit committees, as exemplified below. Therefore, holders of common ADSs do not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all NYSE corporate governance requirements.

For example, as a foreign private issuer, we rely on an exemption under Rule 10A-3(c) of the Exchange Act with respect to our audit committee. For a further discussion of our statutory audit committee and the audit committee exemption, see "Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees — A. Directors and Senior Management — Board Committees — Audit Committee" of the 2022 Form 20-F, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

#### Holders of our common shares and common ADSs may face difficulties in serving process on or enforcing judgments against us and other persons.
Sendas is incorporated as a corporation under the laws of Brazil, and substantially all of our assets are located in Brazil. In addition, all of our directors and executive officers reside outside the United States and all or a significant portion of the assets of such persons may be located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

for holders of our common shares or common ADSs to effect service of process within the United States or other jurisdictions outside Brazil upon such persons, or to enforce against such persons judgments of U.S. courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws or the laws of such other jurisdictions. Further, it is unclear if original actions against us, our directors or our officers predicated on civil liabilities based solely upon U.S. federal securities laws may be brought in courts outside the United States, including Brazil. In addition, payment must be made in *reais* in proceedings brought before the Brazilian courts seeking to enforce obligations against us and any judgment rendered in Brazilian courts in respect of any payment obligations would be payable in *reais*.

***Holders of our common shares are required to resolve disputes with us, our senior management and holders of our common shares only through arbitration in Brazil.***

In accordance with our bylaws, all disputes or claims based on our bylaws, the Brazilian Corporate Law or other relevant laws or administrative rules, and concerning matters between holders of our common shares, us, or our directors or officers, must be submitted for arbitration at the Market Arbitration Chamber (*Câmara de Arbitragem do Mercado*) of the B3. The governing law for any such disputes or claims is Brazilian law. Accordingly, shareholders would be required to initiate such arbitration proceedings in Brazil, which could have the effect of discouraging shareholders located outside Brazil from bringing such claims. In addition, arbitration proceedings in Brazil are known to be costlier than other dispute resolution methods, such as court proceedings.

***The protections afforded to minority shareholders in Brazil are different, and may be more difficult to enforce, than those in the United States and some European countries.***

The protections afforded to minority shareholders in Brazil are different from those in the United States and some European countries. In particular, jurisprudence with respect to shareholder disputes is less developed in Brazil than in the United States and some European countries and there are different procedural requirements for bringing shareholder lawsuits, including shareholder derivative suits. There is also a substantially less active plaintiffs' bar for the enforcement of shareholders' rights in Brazil than there is in the United States. As a result, it may be more difficult in practice for our minority shareholders to enforce their rights against us, our directors or executive officers than it would be for shareholders of a U.S. or European company.

#### Acquisition, ownership and disposal of our common shares or common ADSs could result in substantial U.S. tax liability for you.
You may be subject to U.S. federal income taxation in connection with the acquisition, ownership and disposal of our common shares or common ADSs. For more information, see "Taxation — Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences."

***We may be classified as a passive foreign investment company, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of our common shares and the common ADSs.***

In general, a non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes in any taxable year in which the corporation satisfies either of the following requirements:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• at least 75% of its gross income is "passive income"; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• at least 50% of the average gross fair market value of its assets is attributable to assets that produce "passive income" or are held for the production of "passive income."

Passive income for this purpose generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents and net gains from the disposition of property that gives rise to such income and of commodities. Based upon the composition of our income, our assets and the nature of our business, we believe that we were not treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes in 2022. However, there can be no assurance that we will not be considered to be a PFIC for any particular year. If we were considered to be a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder (as defined in "Taxation — Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences") owned our common shares or ADSs, such U.S. Holder

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

could be subject to significant adverse tax consequences. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to their investment in our common shares or ADSs. For more information, see "Taxation — Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Passive Foreign Investment Company."

#### Acquisition, ownership and disposal of our common shares or common ADSs could result in substantial Brazilian tax liability for you.
You may be required to pay Brazilian capital gains or other taxes in connection with the acquisition, ownership and disposal of our common shares or the common ADSs. For more information, see "Taxation — Material Brazilian Tax Consequences."

#### Total return swap and hedge transactions may influence the demand and price of our common shares and common shares in the form of ADSs.
The Brazilian placement agents and their affiliates may carry out hedging transactions (including total return swaps) with third parties, as permitted by article 48 of CVM Instruction No. 400, and such transactions will not be considered investments made by related persons (*pessoas vinculadas*) for the purposes of article 55 of CVM Instruction No. 400, provided that such third parties are not related persons (*pessoas vinculadas*). Such transactions may constitute a significant portion of the offering and may influence demand and, consequently, the price of our common shares and common shares in the form of ADSs.

#### The Casino Group has the ability to direct our business and affairs despite holding less than 50% of our total voting shares.
As of the date of this prospectus supplement, the Casino Group is the beneficial owner of 30.5% of the total capital stock of Sendas, which is less than a majority of the total voting shares of Sendas. Notwithstanding this fact, the Casino Group has the power to: (1) appoint the majority of the members of our board of directors, who, in turn, appoint our executive officers; and (2) determine the outcome of the vast majority of actions requiring shareholder approval. Accordingly, the Casino Group is considered to be our controlling shareholder pursuant to Brazilian Corporate Law. The Casino Group's interests and business decisions may prevail over those of our other shareholders or ADS holders and there is no assurance that such business decisions and interests will result in improvements in our results of operations, which may adversely affect the trading price of our securities.

However, as we not have a controlling shareholder who holds an absolute majority of our voting shares, we are susceptible to the emergence of a group of shareholders acting together that will exercise control over our business. We may also be subject to hostile attempts to acquire control and the resulting conflicts, and certain shareholder resolutions that require a minimum quorum may not be reached, making decision-making difficult in the scope of our corporate activities. Any sudden or unexpected change in our management, our business plan or strategic direction, any attempt to acquire control or any dispute between shareholders concerning their respective rights may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

In addition, in the event control over us is transferred to an entity or group such that Casino no longer retains direct or indirect control over us, individually or as part of a control block, or a third party acquires control over us, certain of our debt obligations may be accelerated, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition. However, considering that this offering does not consist of a transfer of our control to another person or group of persons, we understand that this offering is not an event that could trigger the acceleration of such debt instruments. For additional information about our indebtedness and the applicable covenants, see "Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to our Industry and Us — Certain of our debt instruments contain covenants that could limit our ability to operate our business and have other adverse consequences" and "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects — B. Liquidity and Capital Resources — Indebtedness — Long-Term Indebtedness" in the 2022 Form 20-F, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

Finally, investors and shareholders should consider that upon the completion of this offering, as a result of the significant decrease of Casino Group's stake, it is expected that we will not have a controlling shareholder or control group. For more information see the risk factor below entitled "— Following the conclusion of this offering, we may no longer have a controlling shareholder or control group, which may leave us susceptible to shareholders' alliances, conflicts among shareholders and other events arising from the absence of a controlling shareholder or control group."

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

***Following the conclusion of this offering, we may no longer have a controlling shareholder or control group, which may leave us susceptible to shareholders' alliances, conflicts among shareholders and other events arising from the absence of a controlling shareholder or control group.***

Following the conclusion of this offering, the Casino Group will be the beneficial owner of up to 11.7% of the total capital stock of Sendas, assuming the maximum amount of securities are sold in the global offering. Such equity interest may not be sufficient to ensure the Casino Group's influence over our corporate decisions, including the composition of our management. In addition, the Casino Group indicated that it does not expect to elect the majority of our board of directors at the next annual shareholders meeting. Therefore, it is expected that we will no longer have a controlling shareholder or control group, in fact or in law, and will have dispersed shareholding, which may make us more susceptible to the appearance of a new group of shareholders acting jointly that may exercise control and define our operations.

In such case, we will also be more susceptible to hostile takeover attempts and conflicts arising therefrom, and certain resolutions requiring a minimum quorum for installation or approval may have a lengthy approval process or may even not be approved at all, delaying our decision-making process. If a control group emerges and has decision-making power, we may experience sudden and unexpected changes in our corporate policies and strategies, including a possible replacement of directors. Any sudden or unexpected change in our management, business plan or strategic direction, any attempt to acquire control or any dispute among shareholders regarding their respective rights may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

In addition, in the event control over us is acquired by an investor or group of investors following the conclusion of this offering, certain of our debt obligations may be accelerated, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition. For additional information about our indebtedness and the applicable covenants, see "Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to our Industry and Us — Certain of our debt instruments contain covenants that could limit our ability to operate our business and have other adverse consequences" and "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects — B. Liquidity and Capital Resources — Indebtedness — Long-Term Indebtedness" in the 2022 Form 20-F, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

(1) Solely for the convenience of the reader, Brazilian *real* amounts have been translated into U.S. dollars at an exchange rate of R$5.2177 per US$1.00, which was the commercial selling rate for U.S. dollars in effect on December 31, 2022, as reported by the Central Bank of Brazil. The *real/*U.S. dollar exchange rate should not be construed as implying that the *real* amounts represent, or could have been or could be converted into, U.S. dollars at such rates or at any other rate as of that or any other date.

(2) Total capitalization is the sum of total indebtedness and total shareholders' equity.

There has been no material change to our capitalization since December 31, 2022. In light of the fact that we will not receive any consideration from the global offering, the global offering will not affect our total capitalization as of December 31, 2022.

#### UNDERWRITING
This global offering consists of an international offering of our common shares, offered directly or represented by common ADSs, in the United States and elsewhere outside of Brazil, and a concurrent public offering with restricted placement efforts of our common shares in Brazil.

Under the terms and subject to the conditions contained in an international underwriting and placement facilitation agreement dated , 2023, the Selling Shareholder is offering the common ADSs described in this prospectus supplement through the international underwriters named below in the United States and other countries outside Brazil. The offering of the common ADSs is being underwritten severally and not jointly by the international underwriters named below. In addition, BTG Pactual US Capital, LLC, Bradesco Securities, Inc., Itau BBA USA Securities, Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, UBS Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Safra Securities LLC and Santander US Capital Markets LLC will act as international placement agents for the Brazilian placement agents and will facilitate the placement of our common shares to investors located outside Brazil as further discussed below.

The international underwriting and placement facilitation agreement provides that the international underwriters are obligated to purchase all of the common ADSs in the international offering and the international placement agents are obligated to place common shares on behalf of the Brazilian placement agents. The international underwriting and placement facilitation agreement provides that the obligation of the international underwriters to purchase the common ADSs and the obligation of the international placement agents to place the common shares are subject to, among other conditions, the absence of any material adverse change in our business, the delivery of certain legal opinions by our and their legal counsel in Brazil and in the United States and certain procedures by our independent auditors.

The international underwriting and placement facilitation agreement also provides that if an international underwriter defaults, the purchase commitments of non-defaulting underwriters may be increased or the offering may be terminated. Subject to the terms and conditions of the international underwriting and placement facilitation agreement, each of the international underwriters has severally agreed to purchase from the Selling Shareholder the number of the common ADSs listed next to its name in the following table.

#### Price Stabilization and Short Positions

The international underwriters have advised us that, pursuant to Regulation M of the Securities Act, they may also engage in other activities that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the common ADSs, including the imposition of penalty bids. This means that if the international underwriters purchase common ADSs in the open market in stabilizing transactions or to cover short sales, they may be required to sell those common ADSs as part of the global offering or to repay the underwriting discount received by them.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

These activities may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common ADSs or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common ADSs, and, as a result, the price of our common ADSs may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If the international underwriters commence these activities, they may discontinue them at any time. The international underwriters may carry out these transactions on the NYSE, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

#### Other Relationships
The international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents, the international placement agents and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, arranging securities transactions, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, market-making financing, brokerage activities and other financial and non-financial activities and services.

In addition to the global offering, the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents, the international placement agents and their respective affiliates have engaged, and may engage in the future, in a variety of commercial and investment banking transactions from time to time with us for which we have paid customary fees and expenses, including financing transactions, bank guarantees and foreign exchange and derivative transactions, such as currency and interest swaps, and have provided advisory services for mergers and acquisitions and issuances of debt and equity in the local and international capital markets.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents, the international placement agents and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers (including to hedge their and their customers' risk exposure in connection with such investments and transactions), and such investment and securities activities may involve our securities and/or instruments or those of our affiliates.

The international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents, the international placement agents and their respective affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

Except for the commissions to be received within the scope of the global offering, which is calculated in relation to the price per ADS and per common share of this offering, no other remuneration will be paid by us or the Selling Shareholder to the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents, the international placement agents and their respective affiliates.

We have borrowed funds for working capital pursuant to credit facilities with several financial institutions, including a R$300 million facility with Banco BTG Pactual S.A. For more information, see "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects — B. Liquidity and Capital Resources — Indebtedness — Sendas Working Capital Facilities" in the 2022 Form 20-F, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

#### Selling Restrictions
Other than with respect to the public offering with restricted placement efforts of our common shares in Brazil and the public offering of the common ADSs and common shares registered with the SEC in the United States, no action has been or will be taken in any country or jurisdiction by us, the Selling Shareholder, the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents or the international placement agents that would permit a public offering of our common shares or the common ADSs, or possession or distribution of any offering material in relation thereto, in any country or jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. Accordingly, our common shares and the common ADSs may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, and neither this prospectus supplement nor any other offering material or advertisements in connection with our common shares or the common ADSs may be distributed, published, in or from any country or jurisdiction, except in compliance with any applicable rules and regulations of any such country or jurisdiction. This prospectus supplement does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase in any jurisdiction where such offer or solicitation would be unlawful. Persons into whose possession

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

this prospectus supplement comes are advised to inform themselves about and to observe any restrictions relating to the offering of our common shares and the common ADSs, the distribution of this prospectus supplement and resale of our common shares and the common ADSs.

#### European Economic Area
Our common shares and the common ADSs are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area ("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor (a "Qualified Investor") as defined in the Prospectus Regulation. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling our common shares and the common ADSs or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling our common shares and the common ADSs or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

This prospectus supplement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of common shares or common ADSs in any Member State will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of our common shares and the common ADSs. Accordingly, any person making or intending to make any offer within the EEA of our common shares or the common ADSs which are the subject of the offering contemplated in this prospectus supplement may only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for Sendas, the Selling Shareholder, the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents or the international placement agents to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Regulation or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 23 of the Prospectus Regulation, in each case, in relation to such offer. None of Sendas, the Selling Shareholder, the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents or the international placement agents have authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of our common shares or the common ADSs in circumstances in which an obligation arises for Sendas, the Selling Shareholder, the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents or the international placement agents to publish a prospectus for such offer. None of Sendas, the Selling Shareholder, the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents or the international placement agents have authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of our common shares or the common ADSs through any financial intermediary, other than offers made by the international underwriters or the international placement agents (on behalf of the Brazilian placement agents), which constitute the final placement of the our common shares and the common ADSs contemplated in this prospectus supplement.

Each person in a Member State who receives any communication in respect of, or who acquires any of our common shares or the common ADSs under, the offers to the public contemplated in this prospectus supplement, or to whom our common shares or the common ADSs are otherwise made available, will be deemed to have represented, warranted, acknowledged and agreed to and with each international underwriter, Brazilian placement agent, international placement agent, Sendas and the Selling Shareholder that they and any person on whose behalf it acquires our common shares or the common ADSs is: (i) a qualified investor within the meaning of Article 2(e) of the Prospectus Regulation; (ii) in the case of the common ADSs only, not a retail investor (as defined above); and (iii) in the case of any of our common shares or the common ADSs acquired by it as a financial intermediary, as that term is used in Article 5(1) of the Prospectus Regulation, (i) our common shares or the common ADSs acquired by it in the offer have not been acquired on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in any Member State other than qualified investors, as that term is defined in the Prospectus Regulation, or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the international underwriters and the international placement agents (acting on behalf of the Brazilian placement agents) has been given to the offer or resale; or (ii) where our common shares or the common ADSs have been acquired by it on behalf of persons in any Member State other than qualified investors, the offer of those common shares or common ADSs to it is not treated under the Prospectus Regulation as having been made to such persons.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

We, the Selling Shareholder, the international underwriters, the Brazilian placement agents, the international placement agents and their affiliates, and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representation, acknowledgment and agreement. Notwithstanding the above, a person who is not a Qualified Investor may, with the consent of the international underwriters and the international placement agents (acting on behalf of the Brazilian placement agents), be permitted to purchase our common shares in the international offering.

In this section, the expression an "offer" in relation to any of our common shares or the common ADSs in any Member State of the EEA means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and our common shares or the common ADSs to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for our common shares or the common ADSs, and the expression "Prospectus Regulation" means Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended or superseded).

#### France
No prospectus (including any amendment, supplement or replacement thereto) has been prepared in connection with the offering of our common shares or the common ADSs that has been approved by the *Autorité des marchés financiers* or by the competent authority of another State that is a contracting party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area and notified to the *Autorité des marchés financiers*; none of our common shares or the common ADSs have been offered or sold nor will be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, to the public in France; the prospectus supplement or any other offering material relating to our common shares or the common ADSs have not been distributed or caused to be distributed and will not be distributed or caused to be distributed to the public in France; such offers, sales and distributions have been and shall only be made in France to: (a) persons providing investment services relating to portfolio management for the account of third parties (*personnes fournissant le service d'investissement de gestion de portefeuille pour compte de tiers*), and/or (b) qualified investors (*investisseurs qualifiés*) acting for their own account, and/or (c) a limited circle of investors (*cercle restreint*) acting for their own account, as defined in, and in accordance with, Articles L. 411-1, L. 411-2, D. 411-1 and D. 411-4 of the French *Code monétaire et financier*.

In accordance with Article 100 bis of the Consolidated Financial Act, the subsequent resale on the secondary market in the Republic of Italy of our common shares or the common ADSs (which were part of an offer made pursuant to an exemption from the obligation to publish a prospectus) constitutes a distinct and autonomous offer that must be made in compliance with the public offer and prospectus requirement rules provided under the Consolidated Financial Act and Issuers' Regulation unless an exemption applies.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### TAXATION
The following discussion contains a description of the material Brazilian and U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of the our common shares (the "Sendas common shares") or the underlying ADSs (the "Sendas ADSs"). The following discussion is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of all tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common shares. You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the tax consequences of your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the laws of any state, local, foreign or other taxing jurisdiction.

#### Material Brazilian Tax Consequences
The following discussion describes the material Brazilian tax consequences relating to the purchase, ownership and disposal of Sendas common shares and Sendas ADSs by persons that are not domiciled in Brazil for tax purposes ("Non-Resident Holders").

It does not purport to be a comprehensive discussion of all the tax consequences that may be relevant to these matters, and it is not applicable to all categories of investors, some of which may be subject to special tax rules not specifically addressed herein. It is based upon the tax laws of Brazil, in effect as of the date of this prospectus supplement, which are subject to change and to differing interpretations. Any change in the applicable Brazilian laws and regulations may impact the consequences described below.

The tax consequences described below do not take into account tax treaties entered into by Brazil and other countries. The discussion also does not address any tax consequences under the tax laws of any state or locality of Brazil, except if otherwise stated herein.

Although there is presently no income tax treaty between Brazil and the United States, the tax authorities of the two countries have had discussions that may culminate in such a treaty. No assurance can be given, however, as to whether or when a tax treaty will enter into force or how such a treaty would affect a U.S. holder of Sendas common shares or Sendas ADSs.

You are advised to consult your own tax advisor with respect to the Spin-Off or an investment in Sendas common shares or Sendas ADSs in light of your particular investment circumstances.

#### Taxation of Dividends
Dividends paid by a Brazilian corporation, such as us, to a Non-Brazilian Holder of common shares or ADSs are currently not subject to withholding income tax ("WHT") in Brazil to the extent that such amounts are related to profits generated on or after January 1, 1996. Dividends paid from profits generated before January 1, 1996 may be subject to WHT at variable rates, according to the tax legislation applicable to each corresponding year.

Law No. 11,638, dated December 28, 2007 ("Law No. 11,638") significantly changed the Brazilian Corporate Law in order to align Brazilian generally accepted accounting principles with IFRS. Nonetheless, Law No. 11,941, dated May 27, 2009, introduced the Transitory Tax Regime ("RTT"), in order to render neutral, from a tax perspective, all the changes provided by Law No. 11,638. Under the RTT, for tax purposes, legal entities should observe the accounting methods and criteria that were effective on December 31, 2007.

Profits determined pursuant to Law No. 11,638 ("IFRS Profits"), may differ from the profits calculated pursuant to the accounting methods and criteria as effective on December 31, 2007 ("2007 Profits").

While it was general market practice to distribute exempted dividends with reference to the IFRS Profits, Rule No. 1,397, issued by the Brazilian tax authorities on September 16, 2013, established that legal entities should observe the 2007 Profits in order to determine the amount of profits that could be distributed as exempted income to their beneficiaries.

Any profits paid in excess of said 2007 Profits ("Excess Dividends"), should, in the tax authorities' view and in the specific case of Non-Resident Holders, be subject to the following rules of taxation: (1) 15.0% WHT, in case of beneficiaries domiciled abroad, but not in a Low or Nil Tax Jurisdiction, and (2) 25.0% WHT, in the case of beneficiaries domiciled in a Low or Nil Tax Jurisdiction.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

In order to mitigate potential disputes on the subject, Law No. 12,973, dated May 13, 2014 ("Law No. 12,973"), in addition to revoking the RTT, introduced a new set of tax rules (the "New Brazilian Tax Regime"), including new provisions with respect to Excess Dividends. Under these new provisions: (1) Excess Dividends related to profits assessed from 2008 to 2013 are exempt; (2) potential disputes remain concerning the Excess Dividends related to 2014 profits, since Law No. 12,973 has not expressly excluded those amounts from taxation and Rule No. 1,492, issued by the Brazilian tax authorities on September 17, 2014, established they are subject to taxation when distributed by companies which have not elected to apply the New Brazilian Tax Regime in 2014; and (3) as of 2015, as the New Brazilian Tax Regime is mandatory and has completely replaced the RTT, dividends calculated based on IFRS Profits should be considered fully exempt.

Finally, there is currently legislation pending before the Brazilian Congress discussing the taxation of dividends. It is not possible to predict if the taxation of dividends will be effectively approved by the Brazilian Congress and how such taxation would be implemented.

#### Distribution of Interest on Shareholders' Equity
Law No. 9,249, dated December 26, 1995, as amended, allows a Brazilian corporation, such as us, to make payments to shareholders of interest on shareholders' equity as an alternative to carrying out dividend distributions and treat those payments as a deductible expense for the purposes of calculating Brazilian corporate income tax and social contribution on net income.

For tax purposes, this interest is limited to the daily variation of the *pro rata* variation of the long term interest rate as determined by the Central Bank from time to time applied to certain equity accounts, and the amount of the distribution may not exceed the greater of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 50% of net income (after the deduction of the social contribution on net income and before taking into account the provision for corporate income tax and the amounts attributable to shareholders as interest on shareholders' equity) for the period in respect of which the payment is made; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 50% of the sum of retained profits and profits reserves for the year prior to the year in respect of which the payment is made.

Payments of interest on shareholders' equity to a Non-Resident Holder are subject to WHT at the rate of 15.0%, or 25.0% if the Non-Resident Holder is domiciled in a Low or Nil Tax Jurisdiction.

These payments may be included, at their net value, as part of any mandatory dividend. To the extent that such payments are accounted for as part of the mandatory dividend, under current Brazilian law, we are obliged to distribute to shareholders an additional amount sufficient to ensure that the net amount received by the shareholders, after payment by us of applicable WHT, plus the amount of declared dividends, is at least equal to the mandatory dividend. The distribution of interest on shareholders' equity must be proposed by our board of directors and is subject to subsequent ratification by the shareholders at the shareholders' meeting.

Please note that there is currently legislation pending before the Brazilian Congress discussing the repeal of interest on shareholders' equity. It is not possible to predict whether such a repeal will effectively occur or if the tax regime applicable to the payment of interest on shareholders' equity will undergo changes, and what the changes will be.

#### Capital Gains
*Sale of Sendas ADSs*

According to Law No. 10,833, dated December 29, 2003 ("Law No. 10,833"), capital gains earned on the disposal of assets located in Brazil by a Non-Resident Holder, whether to another Non-Resident Holder or to a Brazilian Resident Holder (defined as a person that is domiciled in Brazil for tax purposes, as defined by the applicable Brazilian tax legislation) are subject to taxation in Brazil.

Our understanding is that ADSs do not qualify as assets located in Brazil for the purposes of Law No. 10,833 because they represent securities issued and renegotiated in an offshore exchange market and, therefore, should not be subject to the Brazilian WHT. However, considering the lack of any judicial court ruling in respect thereto, we

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

cannot assure you of how tax authorities and Brazilian courts would interpret the definition of assets located in Brazil in connection with the taxation of gains realized by a Non-Resident Holder on the disposal of Sendas ADSs. If the Sendas ADSs are deemed to be assets located in Brazil, gains recognized by a Non-Resident Holder from the sale or other disposition to either a non-resident or a resident in Brazil may be subject to income tax in Brazil as further described below.

*Conversion of Sendas ADS into Sendas Common Shares*

Although there is no clear regulatory guidance, the cancellation of Sendas ADSs and receipt of the underlying Sendas common shares should not subject a Non-Resident Holder to Brazilian tax. Non-Resident Holders may cancel their Sendas ADSs, receive the underlying Sendas common shares, sell such Sendas common shares on a Brazilian stock exchange and remit abroad the proceeds of the sale, according to the regulations of the Central Bank.

Upon receipt of the underlying Sendas common shares upon the cancellation of Sendas ADSs, a Non-Resident Holder may also elect to register with the Central Bank the U.S. dollar value of such Sendas common shares as a foreign portfolio investment under Resolution No. 4,373, which will entitle them to the tax treatment described below.

Alternatively, a Non-Resident Holder is also entitled to register with the Central Bank the U.S. dollar value of such Sendas common shares as a foreign direct investment under Law No. 4,131/62, in which case the respective sale would be subject to the tax treatment applicable to transactions carried out of by a Non-Resident Holder that is not registered before Brazil's Central Bank and CVM in accordance with Resolution No. 4,373.

*Sale of Sendas Common Shares*

Capital gains assessed on a Non-Resident Holder on the disposition of Sendas common shares carried out on a Brazilian stock exchange are:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exempt from income tax when realized by a Non-Resident Holder that: (1) has registered its investment in Brazil with the Central Bank under the rules of CMN Resolution No. 4,373 (a "4,373 Holder"); and (2) is not resident or domiciled in a Low or Nil Tax Jurisdiction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• subject to income tax at a rate of 15.0% in the case of gains realized by a Non-Resident Holder that: (1) is a 4,373 Holder; and (2) is resident or domiciled in a Low or Nil Tax Jurisdiction. In this case, a withholding income tax of 0.005% of the sale value shall be applicable and withheld by the intermediary institution (i.e., a broker) that receives the order directly from the Non-Resident Holder, which can be later offset against any income tax due on the capital gain earned by the Non-Resident Holder; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• subject to income tax at a rate of up to 25.0% in the case of gains realized by a Non-Resident Holder that: (1) is not a 4,373 holder; and (2) is resident or domiciled in a Low or Nil Tax Jurisdiction. In this case, a withholding income tax of 0.005% of the sale value shall be applicable and withheld by the intermediary institution (i.e., a broker) that receives the order directly from the Non-Resident Holder, which can be later offset against any income tax due on the capital gain earned by the Non-Resident Holder.

Any other gains assessed on a sale or disposition of Sendas common shares that is not carried out on a Brazilian stock exchange are subject to: (1) income tax at a rate ranging from 15.0% up to 22.5% when realized by a Non-Resident Holder that (A) has registered its investment as a foreign direct investment under Law No. 4,131/62 (a "4,131 Holder"); and (B) is not resident or domiciled in a Low Tax Jurisdiction; and (2) income tax at a rate of 25.0% when realized by a 4,131 Holder that is domiciled or resident in a Low Tax Jurisdiction. If these gains are related to transactions conducted on the Brazilian non-organized over-the-counter market with intermediation, a WHT of 0.005% on the sale value will also apply and can be used to offset the income tax due on the capital gain.

Under Brazilian legislation, there are legal grounds to support that the disposition of shares of a Brazilian entity by a 4,373 Holder outside the Brazilian stock exchange should be subject to a rate of 15.0%. This is mainly because Section 81 of Law No. 8,981, dated January 20, 1995, as extended by Section 16 Provisional Measure 2,189-49/01, provides for a Special Tax Regime to 4,373 Holders by means of which: (1) capital gains earned by 4,373 Holders are exempt, to the extent capital gains are considered to be the positive results obtained from transactions carried out on the stock exchange; and (2) in all other cases applies the taxation at the 15.0% WHT rate. Notwithstanding, Brazilian custodian agents usually do not accept this view and require the tax treatment applicable to 4,131 Holders

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

(i.e., progressive WHT rates ranging from 15.0% up to 22.5%) on disposition of Brazilian assets carried out outside the stock exchange. There is a Ruling surrounding the matter, but it still leaves room for interpretation. Administrative and judicial precedents are inexistent.

Any exercise of preemptive rights relating to Sendas common shares or Sendas ADSs will not be subject to Brazilian withholding income tax. Any gain on the sale or assignment of preemptive rights relating to Sendas common shares by the ADS Depositary on behalf of holders of Sendas ADSs will be subject to Brazilian income taxation according to the same rules applicable to the sale or disposal of Sendas common shares.

In the case of a redemption of common shares or a capital reduction by a Brazilian corporation, such as us, the positive difference between the amount received by a Non-Resident Holder and the acquisition cost of the common shares redeemed, including common shares underlying common ADSs, is treated as a capital gain derived from the sale or exchange of shares not carried out on a Brazilian stock exchange market, and is therefore subject to income tax at the specific rates detailed above, depending on the nature of the investment and the location of the investor.

As a general rule, the gains realized as a result of the disposal of common shares, including these underlying common ADSs, is the positive difference between the amount realized on the sale or exchange of the common shares and their acquisition cost.

There is no assurance that the current preferential treatment for a Non-Resident Holder of Sendas ADSs and a 4,373 Holder of Sendas common shares will continue or that it will not change in the future.

*Conversion of Sendas Common Shares into Sendas ADSs*

The deposit of Sendas common shares into the Sendas ADS program and issuance of Sendas ADSs may subject a Non-Resident Holder to Brazilian income tax on capital gains if the amount previously registered with the Central Bank as a foreign investment in Sendas common shares or, in the case of other market investors under Resolution No. 4,373, the acquisition cost of the Sendas common shares, as the case may be, is lower than:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the average price per Sendas common share on the B3 on the day of deposit; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if no Sendas common shares were sold on that day, the average price on the B3 during the 15 preceding trading sessions.

The difference between the amount previously registered, or the acquisition cost, as the case may be, and the average price of the Sendas common shares, calculated as set forth above, may be considered a taxable capital gain.

#### Discussion on Low or Nil Taxation Jurisdictions
On June 4, 2010, the Brazilian tax authorities enacted Normative Ruling No. 1,037 listing: (1) the countries and jurisdictions considered as Low or Nil Taxation Jurisdictions or where the local legislation does not allow access to information related to the shareholding composition of legal entities, to their ownership or to the identity of the effective beneficiary of the income attributed to non-residents; and (2) the privileged tax regimes, which definition is provided by Law No. 11,727, of June 23, 2008 ("Law No. 11,727").

A Low or Nil Taxation Jurisdiction is a country or location that: (1) does not impose taxation on income; (2) imposes income tax at a maximum rate lower than 20.0%; or (3) imposes restrictions on the disclosure of shareholding composition or the ownership of the investment. A regulation issued by the Brazilian tax authorities on November 28, 2014 (Ordinance No. 488, of 2014) decreased, from 20.0% to 17.0%, the minimum threshold for certain specific cases. The reduced 17.0% threshold applies only to countries and regimes aligned with international standards of fiscal transparency in accordance with rules to be established by the Brazilian tax authorities. Although Ordinance No. 488 has lowered the threshold rate, Normative Ruling No. 1,037, which identifies the countries considered to be Low or Nil Tax Jurisdictions and the locations considered as privileged tax regimes, has not been amended yet to reflect such threshold modification.

Law No. 11,727 created the concept of "privileged tax regimes," which encompasses the countries and jurisdictions that: (1) do not tax income or tax it at a maximum rate lower than 20.0%; (2) grant tax advantages to a non-resident entity or individual (a) without the need to carry out a substantial economic activity in the country or jurisdiction, or (b) conditioned to the non-exercise of a substantial economic activity in the country or jurisdiction;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

(3) do not tax or tax proceeds generated abroad at a maximum rate lower than 20.0%; or (4) restrict the ownership disclosure of assets and ownership right or restrict disclosure about economic transactions carried out. Although we believe that the best interpretation of the current tax legislation is that the above mentioned "privileged tax regime" concept should apply solely for purposes of Brazilian transfer pricing and thin capitalization rules, among other rules that make express reference to the concepts, we can provide no assurance that tax authorities will not interpret the rules as applicable also to a Non-Resident Holder on payments of interest on shareholders' equity.

Currently, the understanding of the Brazilian tax authorities is that the rate of 15.0% of WHT applies to payments made to beneficiaries resident in privileged tax regimes (Answer to Advance Tax Ruling Request COSIT No. 575, of December 20, 2017). In any case, if Brazilian tax authorities determine that payments made to a Non-Resident Holder under a privileged tax regime are subject to the same rules applicable to payments made to Non-Resident Holders located in a Low or Nil Tax Jurisdictions, the withholding income tax applicable to such payments could be assessed at a rate up to 25.0%.

We recommend investors to consult their own tax advisors from time to time to verify any possible tax consequence arising from Normative Ruling No. 1,037 and Law No. 11,727. If the Brazilian tax authorities determine that payments made to a Non-Resident Holder are considered to be made under a "privileged tax regime," the WHT applicable to such payments could be assessed at a rate of up to 25.0%.

Finally, it is worth noting that, on December 29, 2022, the Federal Executive Power published Provisional Measure n. 1,152 ("MP 1,152"), which introduced severe changes to Brazilian transfer pricing rules. MP 1,152 reduced the minimum rate used for classifying countries as Low or Nil Taxation Jurisdiction from 20% to 17%. In this sense, under the provisions of MP 1,152, compliance with the requirements set forth by Ordinance No. 488, of 2014, may not be necessary. Please note that MP 1,152 must be approved by the Congress and converted into law within 120 days of its issuance for its provisions become effective in the Brazilian legal system.

#### Other Brazilian Taxes
There are no Brazilian federal inheritance, gift or succession taxes applicable to the ownership, transfer or disposal of Sendas common shares or Sendas ADSs by a Non-Resident Holder. Gift and inheritance taxes, however, may be levied by some states on gifts made to or inheritances bestowed by the Non-Resident Holder on individuals or entities resident or domiciled within such states in Brazil. There is no Brazilian stamp, issue, registration or similar taxes or duties payable by a Non-Resident Holder of Sendas common shares or Sendas ADSs.

#### Taxation of Foreign Exchange Transactions (IOF / Exchange)
Pursuant to Decree No. 6,306/07, the conversion into foreign currency or the conversion into Brazilian currency of the proceeds received or remitted by a Brazilian entity from a foreign investment in the Brazilian securities market, including those in connection with the investment by a Non-Resident Holder in common shares and common ADSs, may be subject to the Tax on Foreign Exchange Transactions ("IOF/Exchange"). Currently, the applicable rate for almost all foreign currency exchange transactions is 0.38%. Foreign currency exchange transactions carried out for the inflow of funds in Brazil for investment in the Brazilian financial and capital market made by a foreign investor (including a Non-Resident Holder, as applicable) are subject to IOF/Exchange at a 0% rate. The IOF/Exchange rate will also be 0% for the outflow of resources from Brazil related to these types of investments, including payments of dividends and interest on shareholders' equity and the repatriation of funds invested in the Brazilian market. Furthermore, the IOF/Exchange is currently levied at a 0% rate for the conversion of ADSs into common shares held by foreign investors under the 4,373 Holders regime. In any case, the Brazilian government is permitted to increase the rate to a maximum of 25% at any time, with respect to future transactions. Any increase in the rate would not apply retroactively.

#### Tax on Bonds and Securities Transactions (IOF / Bonds)
Pursuant to Decree 6,306/07, the Tax on Bonds and Securities Transactions ("IOF/Bonds"), may be imposed on any transaction involving bonds and securities even if the transactions are performed on a Brazilian stock exchange. The rate of this tax for transactions involving common shares is currently 0%, but the Brazilian government may increase such rate up to 1.5% per day, with respect to future transactions. Currently, the issuance of depositary receipts traded outside of Brazil which underlying shares are issued by a Brazilian company and listed on a Brazilian stock exchange are also subject to IOF/Bonds at the 0% rate. Any increase in the rate would not apply retroactively.

#### Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

#### In General
The following is a discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences generally applicable to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of owning and disposing of the Sendas common shares or the Sendas ADSs (the "Sendas Shares"), but it does not purport to be a comprehensive discussion of all tax considerations that may be relevant to a particular investor's decision to acquire Sendas Shares. This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative guidance and court decisions, in each case as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, and to differing interpretations. This discussion addresses only those holders that hold their Sendas Shares as "capital assets" within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address any aspect of non-U.S. tax law or U.S state, local, estate, gift or other tax law (including the Medicare tax on net investment income) that may be applicable to a holder. This discussion does not constitute tax advice and does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to particular holders of Sendas Shares in light of their personal circumstances, or to any holders subject to special treatment under the Code, such as:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• banks, mutual funds and other financial institutions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• real estate investment trusts and regulated investment companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• traders in securities who elect to apply a mark-to-market method of tax accounting;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• tax-exempt organizations or governmental organizations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• insurance companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• dealers or brokers in securities or foreign currency;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• individual retirement and other deferred accounts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• expatriates and former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "passive foreign investment companies" or "controlled foreign corporations," and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• persons subject to an alternative minimum tax;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• persons who own or are deemed to own 10% or more (by vote or value) of Sendas's voting stock;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• persons who hold the Sendas Shares as part of a straddle, hedging, conversion, constructive sale or other risk reduction transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• persons who purchase or sell the Sendas Shares as part of a wash sale for tax purposes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• persons owning Sendas Shares in connection with a trade or business conducted outside the United States;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "S corporations," partnerships or other entities or arrangements classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or other pass-through entities (and investors therein); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• persons who received their shares through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation or through a tax-qualified retirement plan.

For purposes of this discussion, a "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of Sendas Shares, that for U.S. federal income tax purposes is:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a trust if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) the trust has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If a partnership, including for this purpose any arrangement or entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holds Sendas Shares, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A U.S. Holder that is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and the partners in such partnership are urged to consult their tax advisors about the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of Sendas Shares.

**This discussion is for informational purposes only and is not tax advice. U.S. Holders of Sendas Shares should consult their tax advisors with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them of the ownership and disposition of Sendas Shares in light of their particular circumstances, including the applicability and effect of other federal, state, local, non**-U**.S. and other tax laws, including estate or gift tax laws, any applicable income tax treaty, and possible changes in tax law.**

#### Sendas ADSs
Generally, U.S. Holders of Sendas ADSs should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as holding the Sendas common shares represented by the Sendas ADSs and the following discussion assumes that such treatment will be respected. As a result, no gain or loss should be recognized upon an exchange of Sendas common shares for Sendas ADSs or an exchange of Sendas ADSs for Sendas common shares. The U.S. Treasury has expressed concerns that intermediaries in the chain of ownership between the U.S. Holder of an ADS and the issuer of the security underlying the ADS may be taking actions that are inconsistent with the beneficial ownership of the underlying shares. Accordingly, the creditability of foreign taxes and the availability of the reduced tax rate for dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, if any, as described below, could be affected by actions taken by intermediaries in the chain of ownership between the U.S. Holder of a Sendas ADS and Sendas.

#### U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Owning and Disposing of Sendas Shares
*Distributions on Sendas Shares*

Subject to the discussion below under "*—* Passive Foreign Investment Company," the gross amount of any distribution that Sendas makes to a U.S. Holder with respect to Sendas Shares (including the amount of any taxes withheld therefrom) will generally be includible in such U.S. Holder's gross income, in the year actually or constructively received, as dividend income, but only to the extent that such distribution is paid out of Sendas's current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). To the extent that the amount of the distribution exceeds Sendas's current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), such excess will be treated first as a tax-free return of a U.S. Holder's tax basis in such U.S. Holder's Sendas Shares, thereby reducing the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the Sendas Shares (but not below zero) and then, to the extent such excess amount exceeds such U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in such Sendas Shares, as either long-term or short-term capital gain depending upon whether such U.S. Holder's holding period in the Sendas Shares exceeds one year as of the time such distribution is actually or constructively received. Sendas, however, may not calculate its earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles. In that case, a U.S. Holder should expect that any distribution Sendas makes will be reported as a dividend even if such distribution would otherwise be treated as a tax-free return of capital or as capital gain under the rules described above. Dividends paid by Sendas will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations under the Code or, with respect to Sendas common shares not backed by Sendas ADSs, for the lower rates applicable to "qualified dividend income" for non-corporate U.S. Holders. Dividends on Sendas ADSs (and common shares represented by ADSs) may be eligible for lower rates applicable to "qualified dividend income" for non-corporate U.S. Holders, provided that Sendas is not a PFIC (as discussed below under "— *Passive Foreign Investment Company*") for its taxable year in which the dividend is paid and the preceding taxable year, and certain holding period and other requirements are met. Additionally, the amount of any dividend paid in *reais* will be the U.S. dollar value of the *reais* calculated by reference to the spot rate of exchange in effect on the date of actual or constructive receipt, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars on such date. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the treatment of any foreign currency gain or loss.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

Subject to certain conditions and limitations, non-U.S. taxes withheld, if any, from dividends on the Sendas Shares may be treated as foreign taxes eligible for a credit against the U.S. federal income tax liability of a U.S. Holder. For purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit, dividends paid on the Sendas Shares will be treated as income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute passive category income. Further, in certain circumstances, if a U.S. Holder holds its Sendas Shares for less than a specified minimum period, the U.S. Holder will not be allowed a foreign tax credit for non-U.S. taxes imposed, if any, on dividends paid on its shares. In addition, recent U.S. Treasury Regulations have imposed additional requirements that must be met for a foreign tax to be creditable (including requirements that a "covered withholding tax" be imposed on nonresidents in lieu of a generally applicable tax that satisfies the regulatory definition of an "income tax," which may be unclear or difficult to determine), and these requirements may further restrict a U.S. Holder's ability to benefit from the foreign tax credit for Brazilian income taxes. The rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

*Dispositions of Sendas Shares*

Subject to the discussion below under "*—* Passive Foreign Investment Company," a U.S. Holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss on any sale, exchange, redemption, or other taxable disposition of its Sendas Shares in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized for the Sendas Shares on the disposition and such U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the Sendas Shares disposed of (as discussed above and further detailed below). Any such capital gain or loss will be long-term if the U.S. Holder's holding period in the Sendas Shares exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate taxpayers are generally eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss generally will be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

To the extent a U.S. Holder acquires or disposes of Sendas Shares in a transaction denominated in *reais*, a U.S. Holder's initial tax basis in the Sendas Shares will be the U.S. dollar value of the *reais* denominated purchase price determined on the date of purchase, and the amount realized on a sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of the Sendas Shares will be the U.S. dollar value of the payment received determined on the date of disposition. If the Sendas Shares are treated as traded on an "established securities market", a cash method U.S. Holder or, if it elects, an accrual method U.S. Holder, will determine the U.S. dollar value of (i) the cost of such Sendas Shares by translating the amount paid at the spot rate of exchange on the settlement date of the purchase, and (ii) the amount realized by translating the amount received at the spot rate of exchange on the settlement date of the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition. Such an election by an accrual method U.S. Holder must be applied consistently from year to year and cannot be revoked without the consent of the IRS. Accrual method U.S. Holders that do not elect to be treated as cash method taxpayers for this purpose may have a foreign currency gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which in general will be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the receipt of *reais*.

If any Brazilian tax is imposed on the sale or other disposition of the Sendas Shares, a U.S. Holder's amount realized will include the gross amount of the proceeds of the sale or other disposition before deduction of the Brazilian tax. See "— Material Brazilian Tax Consequences — Capital Gains" for a description of when a disposition may be subject to taxation by Brazil. Brazilian IOF/Exchange tax or any IOF/Securities tax (described under "— Material Brazilian Tax Consequences — Taxation of Foreign Exchange Transactions (IOF/Exchange)" and under "— Material Brazilian Tax Consequences — Tax on Bonds and Securities Transactions (IOF/Bonds) above) will generally not be creditable foreign taxes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors concerning the creditability or deductibility of any Brazilian income tax imposed on the disposition of the Sendas Shares in their particular circumstances.

*Passive Foreign Investment Company*

In general, a non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes in any taxable year in which the corporation satisfies either of the following requirements:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• at least 75% of its gross income is "passive income"; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• at least 50% of the average gross fair market value of its assets is attributable to assets that produce "passive income" or are held for the production of "passive income."

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

Passive income for this purpose generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents and net gains from the disposition of property that gives rise to such income and of commodities. In addition, there is a look-through rule for investments in subsidiary corporations. Under this rule, if a non-U.S. corporation owns (directly or indirectly) at least 25% of the total value of the outstanding shares of another corporation, the non-U.S. corporation is treated as owning its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation and earning its proportionate share of the income of the other corporation for purposes of determining if the non-U.S. foreign corporation is a PFIC.

Based upon the composition of our income, our assets and the nature of our business, we believe that we were not treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes in 2022. However, there can be no assurance that Sendas will not be considered to be a PFIC for any particular year because PFIC status is factual in nature, depends upon factors not wholly within Sendas's control, generally cannot be determined until the close of the taxable year in question, and is determined annually. Further, if Sendas is a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder owned the Sendas Shares and any of Sendas's non-U.S. subsidiaries is also a PFIC, such U.S. Holder will be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of the lower-tier PFIC for purposes of the application of these rules. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors about the application of the PFIC rules to any of Sendas's subsidiaries.

Generally, if Sendas were a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder owned the Sendas Shares, gains recognized by such U.S. Holder on a sale or other disposition (including, under certain circumstances, a pledge) of the Sendas Shares would be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder's holding period for such Sendas Shares. The amount allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other disposition and to any year before Sendas became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, and an interest charge would be imposed on the amount allocated to each such taxable year. Further, any distribution on the Sendas Shares in excess of 125% of the average of the annual distributions on the Sendas Shares received by a U.S. Holder during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder's holding period, whichever is shorter, would be subject to taxation in the same manner as gain recognized from the sale or other disposition of the Sendas Shares, as described immediately above. A mark-to-market election may be available that would result in alternative treatments of the Sendas ADSs if Sendas was a PFIC. If Sendas is classified as a PFIC in any year that a U.S. Holder owned the Sendas Shares, Sendas generally will continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. Holder for all succeeding years during which such U.S. Holder owned the Sendas Shares, even if Sendas ceased to satisfy the requirements of being a PFIC. If a U.S. Holder holds the Sendas Shares during any taxable year in which Sendas is a PFIC, the U.S. Holder generally will be required to file an annual IRS Form 8621, generally with the U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax return for that year unless specified exceptions apply. Significant penalties are imposed for failure to file IRS Form 8621, and the failure to file such form may suspend the running of the statute of limitations. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to their investment in the Sendas Shares and the possibility of making a mark-to-market election.

*Backup Withholding and Information Reporting*

Payments of dividends and proceeds from the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of Sendas Shares that are made within the United States by a U.S. payor or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries to a U.S. Holder may, under certain circumstances, be subject to information reporting and backup withholding, unless the U.S. Holder provides proof of an applicable exemption or, in the case of backup withholding, furnishes its taxpayer identification number and otherwise complies with all applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and generally will be allowed as a refund or credit against the U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

*Foreign Asset Reporting*

Certain U.S. Holders are required to report information relating to an interest in the Sendas Shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for Sendas Shares held in accounts maintained by certain financial institutions) by filing IRS Form 8938 (Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets) with their U.S. federal income tax return. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding their information reporting obligations, if any, with respect to their ownership and disposition of Sendas Shares.

#### DIFFICULTIES OF ENFORCING CIVIL LIABILITIES AGAINST NON-U .S. PERSONS

#### Enforcement of Civil Liabilities in Brazil
Sendas is a corporation (*sociedade anônima*) organized under the laws of Brazil, and substantially all of our assets are located in Brazil. In addition, all of our directors and executive officers reside outside the United States and all or a significant portion of the assets of such persons may be located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process upon Sendas or its executive officers, directors and advisors named in this prospectus supplement within the United States or other jurisdictions outside Brazil, or to enforce against any of them judgments obtained in the United States, including judgments for civil liability based upon the United States federal securities laws, or in other jurisdictions outside Brazil.

For further information on potential difficulties in effecting service of process on any of those persons or enforcing judgments against any of them outside the United States, see "Difficulties of Enforcing Civil Liabilities Against Non-U.S. Persons" in the accompanying prospectus.

#### About this Prospectus

#### Description of Common Shares and American Depositary Shares

#### Common Shares
For a description of our common shares see Exhibit 2.6 of the 2021 Form 20-F incorporated herein by reference.

#### American Depositary Shares
*General*

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., or JPMorgan, as the depositary of the ADSs, has issued the Sendas ADSs. Each Sendas ADS represents an ownership interest in a designated number or percentage of Sendas common shares which we have deposited with the Sendas ADS Custodian, as agent of the depositary, under the deposit agreement among ourselves, the depositary, yourself as an American depositary receipt holder, or the ADR holder, and all other ADR holders, and all beneficial owners of an interest in the ADSs evidenced by ADRs from time to time. In the future, each ADS will also represent any securities, cash or other property deposited with the depositary but which they have not distributed directly to you. Unless certificated ADRs are specifically requested by you, all ADSs will be issued on the books of our depositary in book-entry form and periodic statements will be mailed to you which reflect your ownership interest in such ADSs. In this "Description of American Depositary Shares," references to American depositary receipts or ADRs shall mean ADRs evidencing Sendas ADSs and shall include the statements you will receive which reflect your ownership of Sendas ADSs. In addition, in this "Description of American Depositary Shares," "ADSs" will refer to the Sendas ADSs, "shares" will refer to Sendas common shares, "depositary" will refer to the Sendas Depositary and "custodian" will refer to the Sendas ADS Custodian.

The depositary's office is located at 383 Madison Avenue, Floor 11, New York, NY 10179.

You may hold ADSs either directly or indirectly through your broker or other financial institution. If you hold ADSs directly, by having an ADS registered in your name on the books of the depositary, you are an ADR holder. This description assumes you are an ADR holder and hold your ADSs directly. If you have a beneficial ownership interest in ADSs but hold the ADSs through your broker or financial institution nominee, you are a beneficial owner of ADSs and must rely on the procedures of such broker or financial institution to assert the rights of an ADR holder described in this section. You should consult with your broker or financial institution to find out what those procedures are. If you are a beneficial owner, you will only be able to exercise any right or receive any benefit under the deposit agreement solely through the ADR holder which holds the ADR(s) evidencing the ADSs owned by you, and the arrangements between you and such ADR holder may affect your ability to exercise any rights you may have. For all purposes under the deposit agreement, an ADR holder is deemed to have all requisite authority to act on behalf of any and all beneficial owners of the ADSs evidenced by the ADR(s) registered in such ADR holder's name. The depositary's only notification obligations under the deposit agreement shall be to the ADR holders, and notice to an ADR holder shall be deemed, for all purposes of the deposit agreement, to constitute notice to any and all beneficial owners of the ADSs evidenced by such ADR holder's ADRs.

As an ADR holder or beneficial owner, we will not treat you as a shareholder of ours and you will not have any shareholder rights. Brazilian law governs shareholder rights. Because the depositary or its nominee will be the shareholder of record for the shares represented by all outstanding ADSs, shareholder rights rest with such record holder. Your rights are those of an ADR holder or of a beneficial owner. Such rights derive from the terms of the deposit agreement to be entered into among us, the depositary and all registered holders and beneficial owners from time to time of ADSs issued under the deposit agreement and, in the case of a beneficial owner, from the arrangements between the beneficial owner and the holder of the corresponding ADRs. The obligations of our company, the depositary and its agents are also set out in the deposit agreement. Because the depositary or its nominee will actually be the registered owner of the shares, you must rely on it to exercise the rights of a shareholder on your behalf. The deposit agreement, the ADRs and the ADSs are governed by New York law. Under the deposit agreement, as an ADR holder or a beneficial owner of ADSs, you agree that any legal suit, action or proceeding against or involving us or the depositary, arising out of or based upon the deposit agreement, the ADSs, the ADRs or the transactions contemplated thereby, may only be instituted in a state or federal court in New York, New York, and you irrevocably waive any objection which you may have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding and irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

The following is a summary of what we believe to be the material terms of the Sendas Deposit Agreement. Notwithstanding this, because it is a summary, it may not contain all the information that you may otherwise deem important. For more complete information, you should read the entire deposit agreement and the form of ADR which contains the terms of your ADSs. You can read a copy of the deposit agreement which is filed as an exhibit to the most recent Form F-6 registration statement (or amendment thereto) filed with the SEC. You may also obtain a copy of the form of deposit agreement at the SEC's Public Reference Room which is located at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-732-0330. You may also find the registration statement and the attached deposit agreement on the SEC's website at *http://www.sec.gov*.

*Share Dividends and Other Distributions*

#### How will I receive dividends and other distributions on the shares underlying my ADSs?
We may make various types of distributions with respect to our securities. The depositary has agreed that, subject to any restrictions imposed by Brazilian law, regulation or applicable permit, to the extent practicable, it will pay to you the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on shares or other deposited securities, after converting any cash received into U.S. dollars (if it determines such conversion may be made on a reasonable basis) and, in all cases, making any necessary deductions provided for in the deposit agreement. The depositary may utilize a division, branch or affiliate of JPMorgan to direct, manage and/or execute any public and/or private sale of securities under the deposit agreement. Such division, branch and/or affiliate may charge the depositary a fee in connection with such sales, which fee is considered an expense of the depositary. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of underlying securities that your ADSs represent.

Except as stated below, the depositary will deliver such distributions to ADR holders in proportion to their interests in the following manner:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Cash.* The depositary will distribute any U.S. dollars available to it resulting from a cash dividend or other cash distribution or the net proceeds of sales of any other distribution or portion thereof (to the extent applicable), on an averaged or other practicable basis, subject to (i) appropriate adjustments for taxes withheld, (ii) such distribution being impermissible or impracticable with respect to certain ADR holders, and (iii) deduction of the depositary's and/or its agents' expenses in (1) converting any foreign currency to U.S. dollars to the extent that it determines that such conversion may be made on a reasonable basis, (2) transferring foreign currency or U.S. dollars to the United States by such means as the depositary may determine to the extent that it determines that such transfer may be made on a reasonable basis, (3) obtaining any approval or license of any governmental authority required for such conversion or transfer, which is obtainable at a reasonable cost and within a reasonable time and (4) making any sale by public or private means in any commercially reasonable manner. If we advise the depositary that any such conversion, transfer or distribution can be effected only with the approval or license of the Brazilian government or any agency thereof or the depositary becomes aware of any other governmental approval or license required, the depositary may, in its discretion, apply for such approval or license, as we or our Brazilian counsel may reasonably instruct in writing or as the depositary may deem desirable including, without limitation, Central Bank registration. If exchange rates fluctuate during a time when the depositary cannot convert a foreign currency, you may lose some or all of the value of the distribution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Shares.* In the case of a distribution in shares, the depositary will issue additional ADRs to evidence the number of ADSs representing such shares. Only whole ADSs will be issued. Any shares which would result in fractional ADSs will be sold and the net proceeds will be distributed in the same manner as cash to the ADR holders entitled thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Rights* to receive additional shares. In the case of a distribution of rights to subscribe for additional shares or other rights, if we timely provide evidence satisfactory to the depositary that it may lawfully distribute such rights, the depositary will distribute warrants or other instruments in the discretion of the depositary representing such rights. However, if we do not timely furnish such evidence, the depositary may:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i. sell such rights if practicable and distribute the net proceeds in the same manner as cash to the ADR holders entitled thereto; or

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii. if it is not practicable to sell such rights by reason of the non-transferability of the rights, limited markets therefor, their short duration or otherwise, do nothing and allow such rights to lapse, in which case ADR holders will receive nothing and the rights may lapse. We have no obligation to file a registration statement under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act") in order to make any rights available to ADR holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Other Distributions.* In the case of a distribution of securities or property other than those described above, the depositary may either (i) distribute such securities or property in any manner it deems equitable and practicable or (ii) to the extent the depositary deems distribution of such securities or property not to be equitable and practicable, sell such securities or property and distribute any net proceeds in the same way it distributes cash.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Elective Distributions.* In the case of a dividend payable at the election of our shareholders in cash or in additional shares, we will notify the depositary at least 30 days prior to the proposed distribution stating whether or not we wish such elective distribution to be made available to ADR holders. The depositary shall make such elective distribution available to ADR holders only if (i) we shall have timely requested that the elective distribution is available to ADR holders, (ii) the depositary shall have determined that such distribution is reasonably practicable and (iii) the depositary shall have received satisfactory documentation within the terms of the deposit agreement including any legal opinions of counsel that the depositary in its reasonable discretion may request. If the above conditions are not satisfied, the depositary shall, to the extent permitted by law, distribute to the ADR holders, on the basis of the same determination as is made in the local market in respect of the shares for which no election is made, either cash or additional ADSs representing such additional shares. If the above conditions are satisfied, the depositary shall establish procedures to enable ADR holders to elect the receipt of the proposed dividend in cash or in additional ADSs. There can be no assurance that ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs generally, or any ADR holder or beneficial owner of ADSs in particular, will be given the opportunity to receive elective distributions on the same terms and conditions as the holders of shares.

If the depositary determines in its discretion that any distribution described above is not practicable with respect to any specific ADR holder, the depositary may choose any method of distribution that it deems practicable for such ADR holder, including the distribution of foreign currency, securities or property, or it may retain such items, without paying interest on or investing them, on behalf of the ADR holder as deposited securities, in which case the ADSs will also represent the retained items.

The depositary shall have no obligation to distribute additional securities, rights to receive additional securities or other property if such distributions shall require registration under the Securities Act. The depositary may sell such property if practicable and distribute the net proceeds in the same manner as cash to the ADR holders entitled thereto.

Any U.S. dollars will be distributed by checks drawn on a bank in the United States for whole dollars and cents. Fractional cents will be withheld without liability and dealt with by the depositary in accordance with its then current practices.

The depositary is not responsible if it fails to determine that any distribution or action is lawful or reasonably practicable.

There can be no assurance that the depositary will be able to convert any currency at a specified exchange rate or sell any property, rights, shares or other securities at a specified price, nor that any of such transactions can be completed within a specified time period. All purchases and sales of securities will be handled by the depositary in accordance with its then current policies, which are currently set forth in the "Depositary Receipt Sale and Purchase of Security" section of *https://www.adr.com*, the location and contents of which the depositary shall be solely responsible for.

*Deposit, Withdrawal and Cancellation*

#### How does the depositary issue ADSs?
The depositary will issue ADSs if you or your broker deposit shares or evidence of rights to receive shares with the custodian and pay the fees and expenses owing to the depositary in connection with such issuance.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

Shares deposited in the future with the custodian must be accompanied by certain delivery documentation and shall, at the time of such deposit, be registered in the name of JPMorgan, as depositary for the benefit of ADR holders or in such other name as the depositary shall direct.

The custodian will hold all deposited shares for the account and to the order of the depositary, in each case for the benefit of ADR holders, to the extent not prohibited by law. ADR holders and beneficial owners thus have no direct ownership interest in the shares and only have such rights as are contained in the deposit agreement. The custodian will also hold any additional securities, property and cash received on or in substitution for the deposited shares. The deposited shares and any such additional items are referred to as "deposited securities".

Deposited securities are not intended to, and shall not, constitute proprietary assets of the depositary, the custodian or their nominees. Beneficial ownership in deposited securities is intended to be, and shall at all times during the term of the deposit agreement continue to be, vested in the beneficial owners of the ADSs representing such deposited securities. Notwithstanding anything else contained in the deposit agreement, in the form of ADR and/or in any outstanding ADSs, the depositary, the custodian and their respective nominees are intended to be, and shall at all times during the term of the deposit agreement be, the record holder(s) only of the deposited securities represented by the ADSs for the benefit of the ADR holders. The depositary, on its own behalf and on behalf of the custodian and their respective nominees, disclaims any beneficial ownership interest in the deposited securities held on behalf of the ADR holders.

We, the depositary and the custodian shall comply with Brazil's National Monetary Council (*Conselho Monetário Nacional*) Resolution No. 4,373, dated as of September 29, 2014, in the third article, paragraph three, of the Regulation Annex V, and agree to furnish to the Central Bank and the CVM, whenever required, information or documents related to the ADRs and the deposit agreement, the deposited securities and distributions thereon and, under the terms of the deposit agreement, the depositary and the custodian are authorized to release such information or documents and any other information as required by local regulation, law or regulatory body request. The depositary has the right to terminate the deposit agreement on at least 30 days' notice to ADR holders and us in the event that the depositary or the custodian reasonably could be subject to criminal or material civil liabilities if we have failed to provide such information or documents reasonably available only through us.

Upon each deposit of shares, receipt of related delivery documentation and compliance with the other provisions of the deposit agreement, including the payment of the fees and charges of the depositary and any taxes or other fees or charges owing, the depositary will issue an ADR or ADRs in the name or upon the order of the person entitled thereto evidencing the number of ADSs to which such person is entitled. All of the ADSs issued will, unless specifically requested to the contrary, be part of the depositary's direct registration system, and an ADR holder will receive periodic statements from the depositary which will show the number of ADSs registered in such ADR holder's name. An ADR holder can request that the ADSs not be held through the depositary's direct registration system and that a certificated ADR be issued.

#### How do ADR holders cancel an ADS and obtain deposited securities?
When you turn in your ADR certificate at the depositary's office, or when you provide proper instructions and documentation in the case of direct registration ADSs, the depositary will, upon payment of certain applicable fees, charges and taxes, deliver the underlying shares to you or upon your written order. Delivery of deposited securities in certificated form will be made at the custodian's office. At your risk, expense and request, the depositary may deliver deposited securities at such other place as you may request.

The depositary may only restrict the withdrawal of deposited securities in connection with:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• temporary delays caused by closing our transfer books or those of the depositary or the deposit of shares in connection with voting at a shareholders' meeting, or the payment of dividends;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the payment of fees, taxes and similar charges; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• compliance with any U.S. or foreign laws or governmental regulations relating to the ADRs or to the withdrawal of deposited securities.

This right of withdrawal may not be limited by any other provision of the deposit agreement.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

*Record Dates*

The depositary may, after consultation with us if practicable, fix record dates (which, to the extent applicable, shall be as near as practicable to any corresponding record dates set by us) for the determination of the ADR holders who will be entitled (or obligated, as the case may be):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to receive any distribution on or in respect of deposited securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to pay any fees assessed by the depositary for administration of the ADR program or any expenses owing to the depositary; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to receive any notice or to act in respect of other matters;

, in each case, subject to the provisions of the deposit agreement.

*Voting Rights*

#### How do I vote?
If you are an ADR holder and the depositary asks you to provide it with voting instructions, you may instruct the depositary how to exercise the voting rights for the shares which underlie your ADSs. As soon as practicable after receiving notice from us of any meeting at which the holders of shares are entitled to vote, or of our solicitation of consents or proxies from holders of shares or other deposited securities, the depositary shall fix the ADS record date in accordance with the provisions of the deposit agreement, provided that if the depositary receives a written request from us in a timely manner and at least 30 days prior to the date of such vote or meeting, the depositary shall, at our expense, distribute to the ADR holders a notice stating (i) final information particular to such vote and meeting and any solicitation materials, (ii) that each ADR holder on the record date set by the depositary will, subject to any applicable provisions of Brazilian law, be entitled to instruct the depositary to exercise the voting rights, if any, pertaining to the shares underlying such ADR holder's ADSs and (iii) the manner in which such instructions may be given, including instructions to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by us. Each ADR holder is solely responsible for the forwarding of such notices to the beneficial owners of ADSs registered in such ADR holder's name. Following actual receipt by the ADR department responsible for proxies and voting of ADR holders' instructions (including, without limitation, instructions of any entity or entities acting on behalf of the nominee for DTC), the depositary shall, in the manner and on or before the time established by the depositary for such purpose, endeavor to vote or cause to be voted the shares represented by the ADSs evidenced by such ADR holders' ADRs in accordance with such instructions insofar as practicable and permitted under the provisions of or governing our shares.

To the extent that (A) the depositary has been provided with at least 35 days' notice of a meeting from us, (B) the depositary's notice to ADR holders (described in the preceding paragraph) has been received by all ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs no less than 10 days prior to the date of the meeting and/or the cut-off date for the solicitation of consents, and (C) the depositary does not receive instructions on a particular agenda item from an ADR holder (including, without limitation, any entity or entities acting on behalf of the nominee for DTC) in a timely manner, such ADR holder shall be deemed, and under the deposit agreement the depositary is instructed to deem such ADR holder, to have instructed the depositary to give a discretionary proxy for such agenda item(s) to a person designated by us to vote the deposited securities represented by the ADSs for which actual instructions were not so given by all such ADR holders on such agenda item(s), provided that no such instruction shall be deemed given and no discretionary proxy shall be given unless (1) we inform the depositary in writing (and under the deposit agreement we have agreed to provide the depositary with such instruction promptly in writing) that (a) we wish such proxy to be given with respect to such agenda item(s), (b) there is no substantial opposition existing with respect to such agenda item(s) and (c) such agenda item(s), if approved, would not materially or adversely affect the rights of holders of shares, and (2) the depositary has obtained an opinion of counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to it, confirming that (i) the granting of such discretionary proxy does not subject the depositary to any reporting obligations in Brazil, (ii) the granting of such proxy will not result in a violation of Brazilian laws, rules, regulations or permits, (iii) the voting arrangement and deemed instruction as contemplated in the deposit agreement will be given effect under Brazilian laws, rules and regulations, and (iv) the granting of such discretionary proxy will not under any circumstances result in the shares represented by the ADSs being treated as assets of the depositary under Brazilian laws, rules or regulations.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs are strongly encouraged to forward their voting instructions to the depositary as soon as possible. For instructions to be valid, the ADR department of the depositary that is responsible for proxies and voting must receive them in the manner and on or before the time specified, notwithstanding that such instructions may have been physically received by the depositary prior to such time. The depositary will not itself exercise any voting discretion. Notwithstanding anything contained in the deposit agreement or any ADR, the depositary may, to the extent not prohibited by any law, rule or regulation, or by the rules and/or requirements of the stock exchange on which the ADSs are listed, in lieu of distribution of the materials provided to the depositary in connection with any meeting of, or solicitation of consents or proxies from, holders of deposited securities, distribute to the ADR holders a notice that provides such ADR holders with, or otherwise publicizes to such ADR holders, instructions on how to retrieve such materials or receive such materials upon request (i.e., by reference to a website containing the materials for retrieval or a contact for requesting copies of the materials).

There is no guarantee that ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs generally, or any ADR holder or beneficial owner of ADSs in particular, will receive voting materials in time to instruct the depositary to vote and it is possible that you, or persons who hold their ADSs through brokers, dealers or other third parties, will not have the opportunity to exercise a right to vote.

See "Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Sendas Common Shares and the Sendas ADSs — Holders of Sendas ADSs are not entitled to attend shareholders' meetings and may only vote through the Sendas Depositary" of the 2021 Form 20-F.

The depositary will make available for inspection by ADR holders at the offices of the depositary and the custodian, or upon request from the depositary (which request may be refused by the depositary in its discretion), the deposit agreement, the provisions of or governing deposited securities, and any written communications from us which are both received by the custodian or its nominee as a holder of deposited securities and made generally available to the holders of deposited securities.

Additionally, if we make any written communications generally available to holders of our shares, and we furnish copies thereof (or English translations or summaries) to the depositary, it will distribute the same to ADR holders.

*Fees and Expenses*

#### What fees and expenses will I be responsible for paying?
The depositary may charge each person to whom ADSs are issued, including, without limitation, issuances against deposits of shares, issuances in respect of share distributions, rights and other distributions, issuances pursuant to a stock dividend or stock split declared by us or issuances pursuant to a merger, exchange of securities or any other transaction or event affecting the ADSs or deposited securities, and each person surrendering ADSs for withdrawal of deposited securities or whose ADSs are cancelled or reduced for any other reason, US$5.00 for each 100 ADSs (or any portion thereof) issued, delivered, reduced, cancelled or surrendered, or upon which a share distribution or elective distribution is made or offered, as the case may be. The depositary may sell (by public or private sale) sufficient securities and property received in respect of a share distribution, rights and/or other distribution prior to such deposit to pay such charge.

The following additional charges shall also be incurred by the ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs, by any party depositing or withdrawing shares or by any party surrendering ADSs and/or to whom ADSs are issued (including, without limitation, issuance pursuant to a stock dividend or stock split declared by us or an exchange of stock regarding the ADSs or the deposited securities or a distribution of ADSs), whichever is applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a fee of up to US$0.05 per ADS held for any cash distribution made pursuant to the deposit agreement or for any elective cash/stock dividend offered pursuant to the deposit agreement;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an aggregate fee of up to US$0.05 per ADS per calendar year (or portion thereof) for services performed by the depositary in administering the ADRs (which fee may be charged on a periodic basis during each calendar year and shall be assessed against ADR holders as of the record date or record dates set by the depositary during each calendar year and shall be payable in the manner described in the next succeeding provision);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a fee for the reimbursement of such fees, charges and expenses as are incurred by the depositary and/or any of its agents (including, without limitation, the custodian and expenses incurred on behalf of ADR holders in connection with compliance with foreign exchange control regulations or any law, rule or regulation relating to foreign investment) in connection with the servicing of the shares or other deposited securities, the sale of securities (including, without limitation, deposited securities), the delivery of deposited securities or otherwise in connection with the depositary's or its custodian's compliance with applicable law, rule or regulation (which fees and charges shall be assessed on a proportionate basis against ADR holders as of the record date or dates set by the depositary and shall be payable at the sole discretion of the depositary by billing such ADR holders or by deducting such charge from one or more cash dividends or other cash distributions), including, without limitation, any amounts charged by any governmental authorities or other institutions such as the B3, the stock exchange on which the Sendas shares are registered for trading;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a fee for the distribution of securities (or the sale of securities in connection with a distribution), such fee being in an amount equal to the $0.05 per ADS issuance fee for the execution and delivery of ADSs which would have been charged as a result of the deposit of such securities (treating all such securities as if they were shares) but which securities or the net cash proceeds from the sale thereof are instead distributed by the depositary to those ADR holders entitled thereto;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fees and expenses for conversion of foreign currency;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• stock transfer or other taxes and other governmental charges;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• SWIFT, cable, telex and facsimile transmission and delivery charges incurred at your request in connection with the deposit or delivery of shares, ADRs or deposited securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• transfer or registration fees for the registration of transfer of deposited securities on any applicable register in connection with the deposit or withdrawal of deposited securities; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fees of any division, branch or affiliate of the depositary utilized by the depositary to direct, manage and/or execute any public and/or private sale of securities under the deposit agreement.

To facilitate the administration of various depositary receipt transactions, including disbursement of dividends or other cash distributions and other corporate actions, the depositary may engage the foreign exchange desk within JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., or the Exchange Bank, and/or its affiliates in order to enter into spot foreign exchange transactions to convert foreign currency into U.S. dollars, or FX Transactions. For certain currencies, FX Transactions are entered into with the Exchange Bank or an affiliate, as the case may be, acting in a principal capacity. For other currencies, FX Transactions are routed directly to and managed by an unaffiliated local custodian (or other third party local liquidity provider), and neither the Exchange Bank nor any of its affiliates is a party to such FX Transactions.

The foreign exchange rate applied to an FX Transaction will be either (a) a published benchmark rate, or (b) a rate determined by a third party local liquidity provider, in each case plus or minus a spread, as applicable. The depositary will disclose which foreign exchange rate and spread, if any, apply to such currency on the "Disclosure" page (or successor page) of *www.adr.com* (as updated by the depositary from time to time, "ADR.com"). Such applicable foreign exchange rate and spread may (and neither the depositary, the Exchange Bank nor any of their affiliates is under any obligation to ensure that such rate does not) differ from rates and spreads at which comparable transactions are entered into with other customers or the range of foreign exchange rates and spreads at which the Exchange Bank or any of its affiliates enters into foreign exchange transactions in the relevant currency pair on the date of the FX Transaction. Additionally, the timing of execution of an FX Transaction varies according to local market dynamics, which may include regulatory requirements, market hours and liquidity in the foreign exchange market or other factors. Furthermore, the Exchange Bank and its affiliates may manage the associated risks of their position in the market in a manner they deem appropriate without regard to the impact of such activities on us, the depositary, ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs. The spread applied does not reflect any gains or losses that may be earned

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

or incurred by the Exchange Bank and its affiliates as a result of risk management or other hedging related activity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent we provide U.S. dollars to the depositary, neither the Exchange Bank nor any of its affiliates will execute an FX Transaction as set forth herein. In such case, the depositary will distribute the U.S. dollars received from us.

Further details relating to the applicable foreign exchange rate, the applicable spread and the execution of FX Transactions will be provided by the depositary on ADR.com. We and by holding an ADS or an interest therein, ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs will each be acknowledging and agreeing that the terms applicable to FX Transactions disclosed from time to time on ADR.com will apply to any FX Transaction executed pursuant to the deposit agreement.

The fees and charges you may be required to pay may vary over time and may be changed by us and by the depositary. ADR holders will receive prior notice of the increase in any such fees and charges. The right of the depositary to charge and receive payment of fees, charges and expenses as provided above shall survive the termination of the deposit agreement.

The depositary may make available to us a set amount or a portion of the depositary fees charged in respect of the ADR program or otherwise upon such terms and conditions as we and the depositary may agree from time to time. The depositary collects its fees for issuance and cancellation of ADSs directly from investors depositing shares or surrendering ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal or from intermediaries acting for them. The depositary collects fees for making distributions to investors by deducting those fees from the amounts distributed or by selling a portion of distributable property to pay the fees. The depositary may collect its annual fee for depositary services by deduction from cash distributions, or by directly billing investors, or by charging the book-entry system accounts of participants acting for them. The depositary will generally set off the amounts owing from distributions made to ADR holders. If, however, no distribution exists and payment owing is not timely received by the depositary, the depositary may refuse to provide any further services to ADR holders that have not paid those fees and expenses owing until such fees and expenses have been paid. At the discretion of the depositary, all fees and charges owing under the deposit agreement are due in advance and/or when declared owing by the depositary.

*Payment of Taxes*

If any taxes or other governmental charges (including any penalties and/or interest) shall become payable by or on behalf of the custodian or the depositary with respect to any ADR, any deposited securities represented by the ADSs evidenced thereby or any distribution thereon, such tax or other governmental charge shall be paid by the applicable ADR holder to the depositary and by holding or owning, or having held or owned, an ADR or any ADSs evidenced thereby, the ADR holder and all beneficial owners of such ADSs, and all prior registered holders of such ADRs and prior beneficial owners of such ADSs, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify, defend and save harmless each of the depositary and its agents in respect of such tax or governmental charge. Each ADR holder and beneficial owner of ADSs, and each prior ADR holder and beneficial owner of ADSs, by holding or having held an ADR or an interest in ADSs, acknowledges and agrees that the depositary shall have the right to seek payment of any taxes or governmental charges owing with respect to the relevant ADRs from any one or more such current or prior ADR holder or beneficial owner of ADSs, as determined by the depositary in its sole discretion, without any obligation to seek payment of amounts owing from any other current or prior ADR holder or beneficial owner of ADSs. If an ADR holder owes any tax or other governmental charge, the depositary may (i) deduct the amount thereof from any cash distributions, or (ii) sell deposited securities (by public or private sale) and deduct the amount owing from the net proceeds of such sale. In either case the ADR holder remains liable for any shortfall. If any tax or governmental charge is unpaid, the depositary may also refuse to effect any registration, registration of transfer, split-up or combination of ADRs or withdrawal of deposited securities until such payment is made. If any tax or governmental charge is required to be withheld on any cash distribution, the depositary may deduct the amount required to be withheld from any cash distribution or, in the case of a non-cash distribution, sell the distributed property or securities (by public or private sale) in such amounts and in such manner as the depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay such taxes and distribute any remaining net proceeds or the balance of any such property after deduction of such taxes to the ADR holders entitled thereto.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

As an ADR holder or beneficial owner, you will be agreeing to indemnify us, the depositary, its custodian and any of our or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates against, and hold each of them harmless from, any claims by any governmental authority with respect to taxes, additions to tax, penalties or interest arising out of any refund of taxes, reduced rate of withholding at source or other tax benefit obtained. These obligations survive any transfer or surrender of ADSs or the termination of the deposit agreement.

*Reclassifications, Recapitalizations and Mergers*

If we take certain actions that affect the deposited securities, including (i) any change in par value, split-up, consolidation, cancellation or other reclassification of deposited securities or (ii) any distributions of shares or other property not made to ADR holders or (iii) any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, receivership, bankruptcy or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, then the depositary may choose to, and shall if reasonably requested by us:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• amend the form of ADR;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• distribute additional or amended ADRs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• distribute cash, securities or other property it has received in connection with such actions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• sell by public or private sale any securities or property received and distribute the proceeds as cash; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• none of the above.

If the depositary does not choose any of the above options, any of the cash, securities or other property it receives will constitute part of the deposited securities and each ADS will then represent a proportionate interest in such property.

*Amendment and Termination*

#### How may the deposit agreement be amended?
We may agree with the depositary to amend the deposit agreement and the ADRs without your consent for any reason. ADR holders must be given at least 30 days' notice of any amendment that imposes or increases any fees or charges on a per ADS basis (other than stock transfer or other taxes and other governmental charges, transfer or registration fees, SWIFT, cable, telex or facsimile transmission costs, delivery costs or other such expenses), or that otherwise prejudices any substantial existing right of ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs. If an ADR holder continues to hold an ADR or ADRs after being so notified, such ADR holder and the beneficial owner of the corresponding ADSs are deemed to agree to such amendment and to be bound by the deposit agreement as so amended. No amendment, however, will impair your right to surrender your ADSs and receive the underlying securities, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law.

Any amendments or supplements which (i) are reasonably necessary (as agreed by us and the depositary) in order for (a) the ADSs to be registered on Form F-6 under the Securities Act or (b) the ADSs or shares to be traded solely in electronic book-entry form and (ii) do not in either such case impose or increase any fees or charges to be borne by ADR holders, shall be deemed not to prejudice any substantial rights of ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any governmental body or regulatory body should adopt new laws, rules or regulations which would require amendment or supplement of the deposit agreement or the form of ADR to ensure compliance therewith, we and the depositary may amend or supplement the deposit agreement and the form of ADR (and all outstanding ADRs) at any time in accordance with such changed laws, rules or regulations, which amendment or supplement to the deposit agreement in such circumstances may become effective before a notice of such amendment or supplement is given to ADR holders or within any other period of time as required for compliance.

Notice of any amendment to the deposit agreement or form of ADRs shall not need to describe in detail the specific amendments effectuated thereby, and failure to describe the specific amendments in any such notice shall not render such notice invalid, provided, however, that, in each such case, the notice given to the ADR holders identifies a means for ADR holders and beneficial owners to retrieve or receive the text of such amendment (i.e., upon retrieval from the SEC's, the depositary's or our website or upon request from the depositary).

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### How may the deposit agreement be terminated?
The depositary may, and shall at our written direction, terminate the deposit agreement and the ADRs by mailing notice of such termination to the ADR holders at least 30 days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination; provided, however, if the depositary shall have (i) resigned as depositary under the deposit agreement, notice of such termination by the depositary shall not be provided to ADR holders unless a successor depositary shall not be operating under the deposit agreement within 60 days of the date of such resignation, and (ii) been removed as depositary under the deposit agreement, notice of such termination by the depositary shall not be provided to ADR holders unless a successor depositary shall not be operating under the deposit agreement on the 60<sup>th</sup> day after our notice of removal was first provided to the depositary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the deposit agreement, the depositary may terminate the deposit agreement without notifying us, but subject to giving 30 days' notice to the ADR holders, under the following circumstances: (i) in the event of our bankruptcy or insolvency, (ii) if the Shares cease to be listed on an internationally recognized stock exchange, (iii) if we effect (or will effect) a redemption of all or substantially all of the deposited securities, or a cash or share distribution representing a return of all or substantially all of the value of the deposited securities, or (iv) there occurs a merger, consolidation, sale of assets or other transaction as a result of which securities or other property are delivered in exchange for or in lieu of deposited securities. After the date so fixed for termination, the depositary and its agents will perform no further acts under the deposit agreement and the ADRs, except to receive and hold (or sell) distributions on deposited securities and deliver deposited securities being withdrawn. As soon as practicable after the date so fixed for termination, the depositary shall use its reasonable efforts to sell the deposited securities and shall thereafter (as long as it may lawfully do so) hold in an account (which may be a segregated or unsegregated account) the net proceeds of such sales, together with any other cash then held by it under the deposit agreement, without liability for interest, in trust for the pro rata benefit of the ADR holders who have not theretofore surrendered their ADRs. After making such sale, the depositary shall be discharged from all obligations in respect of the deposit agreement and the ADRs, except to account for such net proceeds and other cash. After the date so fixed for termination, we shall be discharged from all obligations under the deposit agreement except for our obligations to the depositary and its agents.

*Limitations on Obligations and Liability to ADR holders*

Limits on our obligations and the obligations of the depositary; limits on liability to ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs

Prior to the issue, registration, registration of transfer, split-up, combination, or cancellation of any ADRs, or the delivery of any distribution in respect thereof, and from time to time in the case of the production of proofs as described below, we or the depositary or its custodian may require:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• payment with respect thereto of (i) any stock transfer or other tax or other governmental charge, (ii) any stock transfer or registration fees in effect for the registration of transfers of shares or other deposited securities upon any applicable register and (iii) any applicable fees and expenses described in the deposit agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the production of proof satisfactory to it of (i) the identity of any signatory and genuineness of any signature and (ii) such other information, including without limitation, information as to citizenship, residence, exchange control approval, beneficial or other ownership of, or interest in, any securities, compliance with applicable law, regulations, provisions of or governing deposited securities and terms of the deposit agreement and the ADRs, as it may deem necessary or proper; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• compliance with such regulations as the depositary may establish consistent with the deposit agreement and any regulations which the depositary is informed of in writing by us which are required by the depositary, ourselves or the Custodian to facilitate compliance with any applicable rules or regulations of the Central Bank or CVM or any applicable regulator.

The issuance of ADRs, the acceptance of deposits of shares, the registration, registration of transfer, split-up or combination of ADRs or the withdrawal of shares, may be suspended, generally or in particular instances, when the ADR register or any register for deposited securities is closed or when any such action is deemed advisable by the depositary; provided that the ability to withdraw shares may only be limited under the following circumstances: (i) temporary delays caused by closing transfer books of the depositary or our transfer books or the deposit of shares

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

in connection with voting at a shareholders' meeting, or the payment of dividends, (ii) the payment of fees, taxes, and similar charges, and (iii) compliance with any laws or governmental regulations relating to ADRs or to the withdrawal of deposited securities.

The deposit agreement expressly limits the obligations and liability of the depositary, ourselves and each of our and the depositary's respective directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates, provided, however, that no provision of the deposit agreement is intended to constitute a waiver or limitation of any rights which ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs may have under the Securities Act or the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to the extent applicable. In the deposit agreement it provides that neither we nor the depositary nor any such director, officer, employee, agent or affiliate will be liable to ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if any present or future law, rule, regulation, fiat, order or decree of the United States, Brazil or any other country or jurisdiction, or of any governmental or regulatory authority or securities exchange or market or automated quotation system, the provisions of or governing any deposited securities, any present or future provision of our charter, any act of God, war, terrorism, nationalization, epidemic, pandemic, expropriation, currency restrictions, work stoppage, strike, civil unrest, revolutions, rebellions, explosions, computer failure or circumstance beyond our, the depositary's or our respective directors', officers', employees', agents' or affiliates' direct and immediate control shall prevent or delay, or shall cause any of them to be subject to any civil or criminal penalty in connection with, any act which the deposit agreement or the ADRs provide shall be done or performed by any such party(including, without limitation, voting);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• by reason of any non-performance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or things which by the terms of the deposit agreement it is provided shall or may be done or performed;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if it exercises or fails to exercise discretion under the deposit agreement or the ADRs including, without limitation, any failure to determine that any distribution or action may be lawful or reasonably practicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if it performs its obligations specifically set forth in the deposit agreement and ADRs without gross negligence or willful misconduct; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if it takes any action or refrains from taking any action in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting shares for deposit, any ADR holder, or any other person believed by it to be competent to give such advice or information.

We, the depositary and its agents may rely and shall be protected in acting upon any written notice, request, direction, instruction or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, presented or given by the proper party or parties. The depositary shall not be a fiduciary or have any fiduciary duty to ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs. Neither the depositary nor its agents have any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any deposited securities or the ADRs. We and our agents shall only be obligated to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any deposited securities or the ADRs, which in our opinion may involve us in expense or liability, if indemnity satisfactory to us against all expense (including fees and disbursements of counsel) and liability is furnished as often as may be required. The depositary and its agents may fully respond to any and all demands or requests for information maintained by or on its behalf in connection with the deposit agreement, any ADR holder or holders, any ADRs or ADSs or otherwise related thereto to the extent such information is requested or required by or pursuant to any lawful authority, including without limitation laws, rules, regulations, administrative or judicial process, banking, securities or other regulators. The depositary shall not be liable for the acts or omissions made by, or the insolvency of, any securities depository, clearing agency or settlement system. Furthermore, the depositary shall not be responsible for, and shall incur no liability in connection with or arising from, the insolvency of any custodian that is not a branch or affiliate of JPMorgan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the deposit agreement or any ADRs, the depositary shall not be responsible for, and shall incur no liability in connection with or arising from, any act or omission to act on the part of the custodian except to the extent that any ADR holder has incurred liability directly as a result of the custodian having (i) committed fraud or willful misconduct in the provision of custodial services to the depositary or (ii) failed to use reasonable care in the provision of custodial services to the depositary as determined in accordance with the standards prevailing in the jurisdiction in which the custodian is located. The depositary and the custodian(s) may use third party delivery services and providers of information regarding matters such as, but not limited to, pricing, proxy voting, corporate actions, class action litigation and other services in connection with the ADRs and the deposit agreement, and use local agents to provide services such as, but not limited to, attendance at any meetings of security holders. Although the depositary

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

and the custodian will use reasonable care (and cause their agents to use reasonable care) in the selection and retention of such third party providers and local agents, they will not be responsible for any errors or omissions made by them in providing the relevant information or services. The depositary shall not have any liability for the price received in connection with any sale of securities, the timing thereof or any delay in action or omission to act nor shall it be responsible for any error or delay in action, omission to act, default or negligence on the part of the party so retained in connection with any such sale or proposed sale.

The depositary has no obligation to inform ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs about the requirements of any laws, rules or regulations or any changes therein or thereto of any country or jurisdiction or of any governmental or regulatory authority or any securities exchange or market or automated quotation system.

Additionally, none of us, the depositary or the custodian shall be liable for the failure by any ADR holder or beneficial owner of ADSs to obtain the benefits of credits or refunds of non-U.S. tax paid against such ADR holder's or beneficial owner's income tax liability. The depositary is under no obligation to provide ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs, or any of them, with any information about the tax status of our company. Neither we nor the depositary shall incur any liability for any tax or tax consequences that may be incurred by ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs on account of their ownership or disposition of the ADRs or ADSs.

Neither the depositary nor its agents will be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote any of the deposited securities, for the manner in which any such vote is cast, including without limitation any vote cast by a person to whom the depositary is required to give a discretionary proxy pursuant to the deposit agreement, or for the effect of any such vote. The depositary may rely upon instructions from us or our counsel in respect of any approval or license required for any currency conversion, transfer or distribution. The depositary shall not incur any liability for the content of any information submitted to it by us or on our behalf for distribution to ADR holders or for any inaccuracy of any translation thereof, for any investment risk associated with acquiring an interest in the deposited securities, for the validity or worth of the deposited securities, for the credit-worthiness of any third party, for allowing any rights to lapse upon the terms of the deposit agreement or for the failure or timeliness of any notice from us. The depositary shall not be liable for any acts or omissions made by a successor depositary whether in connection with a previous act or omission of the depositary or in connection with any matter arising wholly after the removal or resignation of the depositary. Neither the depositary nor any of its agents shall be liable to ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses) or lost profits, in each case of any form incurred by any person or entity (including, without limitation, ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs), whether or not foreseeable and regardless of the type of action in which such a claim may be brought.

The depositary and its agents may own and deal in any class of securities of our company and our affiliates and in ADSs.

*Disclosure of Interest in ADSs*

To the extent that the provisions of or governing any deposited securities may require disclosure of or impose limits on beneficial or other ownership of deposited securities, other shares and other securities and may provide for blocking transfer, voting or other rights to enforce such disclosure or limits, ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs agree to comply with all such disclosure requirements and ownership limitations and to comply with any reasonable instructions we may provide in respect thereof. We reserve the right to instruct ADR holders (and through any such ADR holder, the beneficial owners of ADSs evidenced by the ADRs registered in such ADR holder's name) to deliver their ADSs for cancellation and withdrawal of the deposited securities so as to permit us to deal directly with the ADR holder and/or beneficial owner of ADSs as a holder of shares and, by holding an ADS or an interest therein, ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs will be agreeing to comply with such instructions.

*Books of Depositary*

The depositary or its agent will maintain a register for the registration, registration of transfer, combination and split-up of ADRs, which register shall include the depositary's direct registration system. ADR holders may inspect such records at the depositary's office at all reasonable times, but solely for the purpose of communicating with other ADR holders in the interest of the business of our company or a matter relating to the deposit agreement. Such register (and/or any portion thereof) may be closed at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by the depositary.

The depositary will maintain facilities for the delivery and receipt of ADRs.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

*Appointment*

In the deposit agreement, each ADR holder and each beneficial owner of ADSs, upon acceptance of any ADSs or ADRs (or any interest therein) issued in accordance with the terms and conditions of the deposit agreement will be deemed for all purposes to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• be a party to and bound by the terms of the deposit agreement and the applicable ADR or ADRs, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• appoint the depositary its attorney-in-fact, with full power to delegate, to act on its behalf and to take any and all actions contemplated in the deposit agreement and the applicable ADR or ADRs, to adopt any and all procedures necessary to comply with applicable laws and to take such action as the depositary in its sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of the deposit agreement and the applicable ADR and ADRs, the taking of such actions to be the conclusive determinant of the necessity and appropriateness thereof.

Each ADR holder and beneficial owner of ADSs is further deemed to acknowledge and agree that (i) nothing in the deposit agreement or any ADR shall give rise to a partnership or joint venture among the parties thereto nor establish a fiduciary or similar relationship among such parties, (ii) the depositary, its divisions, branches and affiliates, and their respective agents, may from time to time be in the possession of non-public information about our company, the ADR holders, the beneficial owners of ADSs and/or their respective affiliates, (iii) the depositary and its divisions, branches and affiliates may at any time have multiple banking relationships with us, ADR holders, beneficial owners of ADSs and/or the affiliates of any of them, (iv) the depositary and its divisions, branches and affiliates may, from time to time, be engaged in transactions in which parties adverse to us or the ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs may have interests, (v) nothing contained in the deposit agreement or any ADR(s) shall (A) preclude the depositary or any of its divisions, branches or affiliates from engaging in such transactions or establishing or maintaining such relationships, or (B) obligate the depositary or any of its divisions, branches or affiliates to disclose such transactions or relationships or to account for any profit made or payment received in such transactions or relationships, and (vi) the depositary shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any information held by any branch, division or affiliate of the depositary and (vii) for purposes of the deposit agreement and the ADRs, notice to an ADR holder is deemed to constitute notice to any and all beneficial owners of the ADSs evidenced by the holder's ADRs.

*Governing Law and Consent to Jurisdiction*

The deposit agreement, the ADSs and the ADRs are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. In the deposit agreement, we have submitted to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts in New York, New York and appointed an agent for service of process on our behalf.

By holding an ADS or an interest therein, ADR holders and beneficial owners of ADSs each irrevocably agree that any legal suit, action or proceeding against or involving us or the depositary, arising out of or based upon the deposit agreement, the ADSs, the ADRs or the transactions contemplated thereby, may only be instituted in a state or federal court in New York, New York, and each irrevocably waives any objection which it may have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding, and irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding.

*Jury Trial Waiver*

The deposit agreement provides that each party thereto (including, for avoidance of doubt, each ADR holder and beneficial owner and/or holder of interests in ADSs or ADRs) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the right to a jury trial in any suit, action or proceeding against us or the depositary directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to our shares or other deposited securities, the ADSs, the ADRs, the deposit agreement, or any transaction contemplated therein, or the breach thereof (whether based on contract, tort, common law or other theory), including any suit, action or proceeding under the U.S. federal securities laws. If we or the depositary were to oppose a jury trial demand based on such waiver, the court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable in the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with applicable state and federal law, including whether a party knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waived the right to a jury trial. The waiver to right to a jury trial of the deposit agreement is not intended to be deemed a waiver by any ADR holder or beneficial owner of ADSs of any rights which ADR holders or beneficial owners of ADSs may have under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, to the extent applicable.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### Plan of Distribution
At the time of offering any securities, we will supplement the following summary of the plan of distribution with a description of the offering, including the particular terms and conditions thereof, set forth in a prospectus supplement relating to those securities. Each prospectus supplement with respect to our securities will set forth the terms of the offering of those securities, including the name or names of any selling shareholders, the name or names of any underwriters or agents, the price of such securities and the net proceeds to any selling shareholders from such sale, any underwriting discounts, commissions or other items constituting underwriters' or agents' compensation, any discount or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers and any securities exchanges on which those securities may be listed.

The selling shareholders may sell the securities from time to time in their offering as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• through agents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to dealers or underwriters for resale;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• directly to purchasers; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• through a combination of any of these methods of sale.

The selling shareholders may solicit offers to purchase securities directly from the public from time to time. The selling shareholders, as applicable, may sell securities to one or more underwriters or dealers acting as principals, who would purchase the securities as principal for resale to the public, either on a firm-commitment or best-efforts basis. The dealers, who may be deemed to be "underwriters" as that term is defined in the Securities Act, may then resell those securities to the public.

The selling shareholders may also designate agents from time to time to solicit offers to purchase securities from the public on its behalf. The prospectus supplement relating to any particular offering of securities will name any agents designated to solicit offers, and will include information about any commissions we and/or the selling shareholders may pay the agents, in that offering. Agents may be deemed to be "underwriters" as that term is defined in the Securities Act.

If the selling shareholders sell securities to underwriters, we and such selling shareholders may execute an underwriting agreement with them at the time of sale and will name them in the applicable prospectus supplement. In connection with those sales, underwriters may be deemed to have received compensation from us or the selling shareholder in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions and may also receive commissions from purchasers of the securities for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters may resell the securities to or through dealers, and those dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from purchasers for whom they may act as agents. The applicable prospectus supplement will include any required information about underwriting compensation we or any selling shareholders pay to underwriters, and any discounts, concessions or commissions underwriters allow to participating dealers, in connection with an offering of securities.

If the selling shareholders offer securities in a subscription rights offering to our existing security holders, we and the selling shareholders may enter into a standby underwriting agreement with dealers, acting as standby underwriters. We and/or the selling shareholders may pay the standby underwriters a commitment fee for the securities they commit to purchase on a standby basis. If the selling shareholders do not enter into a standby underwriting arrangement, the selling shareholders may retain a dealer-manager to manage a subscription rights offering for us.

The selling shareholders may authorize underwriters, dealers and agents to solicit from third parties offers to purchase securities under contracts providing for payment and delivery on future dates. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the material terms of these contracts, including any conditions to the purchasers' obligations, and will include any required information about commissions we may pay for soliciting these contracts.

Underwriters, dealers, agents and other persons may be entitled, under agreements that they may enter into with us and the selling shareholders, to indemnification by us and such selling shareholders, as applicable, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

The underwriters, agents and their respective affiliates have engaged in a variety of commercial and investment banking transactions from time to time with us and the selling shareholders for which we and the selling shareholders have paid customary fees and expenses, including financing transactions, bank guarantees and foreign exchange and derivative transactions, such as currency and interest swaps, and may have provided advisory services for mergers and acquisitions and issuances of debt and equity securities in the local and international capital markets.

#### Difficulties of Enforcing Civil Liabilities Against Non-U .S. Persons
Sendas is a corporation (*sociedade anônima*) organized under the laws of Brazil, and substantially all of our assets are located in Brazil. In addition, all of our directors and executive officers reside outside the United States and all or a significant portion of the assets of such persons may be located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for holders of our common shares or our ADSs to effect service of process within the United States or other jurisdictions outside Brazil upon such persons, or to enforce against such persons judgments of U.S. courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws or the laws of such other jurisdictions. Further, it is unclear if original actions against us, our directors or our officers predicated on civil liabilities based solely upon U.S. federal securities laws may be brought in courts outside the United States, including Brazil. In addition, payment must be made in *reais* in proceedings brought before the Brazilian courts seeking to enforce obligations against us and any judgment rendered in Brazilian courts in respect of any payment obligations would be payable in *reais*.

Machado, Meyer, Sendacz e Opice Advogados, Sendas's Brazilian counsel, has advised Sendas that, subject to the requirements described below, judgments of United States courts for civil liabilities based upon the United States federal securities laws may be enforced in Brazil. A judgment against Sendas or the other persons described above obtained outside Brazil would be enforceable in Brazil, without reconsideration of the merits, only if the judgment satisfies certain requirements and receives confirmation from the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice (*Superior Tribunal de Justiça*). Decisions on interlocutory measures may likewise be enforced in Brazil in accordance with applicable laws. Recognition will occur, according to Article 960 to 965 of the Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure (Law No. 13,105/2015, as amended), Articles 15 and 17 of the Decree Law No. 4,657, dated September 4, 1942 (*Lei de introdução às normas do Direito Brasileiro*); and Articles 216-C to 216-F of the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice's Regiment, only if the foreign decision:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it fulfills all formalities required for its enforceability under the laws of the country where the foreign judgment is granted;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it is for the payment of a sum certain of money;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it was issued by a competent court in the jurisdiction where the judgment was awarded after service of process was properly made in accordance with applicable law or after sufficient evidence of the parties' absence (revelia) as required by applicable law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it is not subject to appeal;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it must be apostilled by a competent authority of the State from which the document emanates according to the Hague Convention of 5 October 1961 Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents or, if such State is not signatory of the Hague Convention, it must be duly authenticated by a competent Brazilian consulate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it is authenticated by a Brazilian consular office in the country where it was issued, and is accompanied by a sworn translation into Portuguese, unless an exemption is provided by an international treaty to which Brazil is a signatory; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• it is not contrary to Brazilian national sovereignty, public policy, good morals and human dignity (as provided in Article 17 of the Law of Introduction to the Brazilian Law in Article 963, VI, of the Brazilian Civil of Civil Procedure and in Article 216-F of the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice's Regiment).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assurance can be given that such confirmation would be obtained, that the process described above could be conducted in a timely manner or that a Brazilian court would enforce a monetary judgment for violation of the U.S. securities laws with respect to any securities issued by Sendas.

Machado, Meyer, Sendacz e Opice Advogados has also advised Sendas that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• original actions based on the U.S. federal securities laws may be brought in Brazilian courts and that, subject to Brazilian public policy and national sovereignty, Brazilian courts may enforce liabilities in such actions against Sendas, certain of its directors and officers and the advisors named herein;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the ability of a judgment creditor to satisfy a judgment by attaching certain assets of the defendant in Brazil is governed and limited by provisions of Brazilian law to the extent that assets are located in Brazil;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• urgent interim measures may also be enforced in Brazil, by letters rogatory, if they meet the same requirements listed above;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, moratorium, liquidation, reorganization, *recuperação judicia*l or *extrajudicial* and other laws of general application relating to/or affecting the rights of creditors generally (claims for salaries, wages, social security and taxes, among others, will have preference over any claims); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if an investor resides outside Brazil and owns no real property in Brazil, he or she must provide a bond sufficient to guarantee court costs and legal fees, including the defendant's attorneys' fees, as determined by the Brazilian court, in connection with litigation in Brazil, except: (1) when an exemption is provided by an international agreement or treaty that Brazil is a signatory; (2) in the case of claims for collection on a *título executivo extrajudicial* (an instrument which may be enforced in Brazilian courts without a review on the merits), in the case of the enforcement of a foreign judgment which has been confirmed by the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice; (3) enforcement of a judgment, including foreign judgments that have been duly recognized by the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice; (4) counterclaims; and (5) when an international treaty signed by Brazil dismisses the obligation to post a bond, as established, under Article 83 of the Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure (*Código de Processo Civil*).
