2 Vetorial Group is one of the biggest independent pig iron producers in Brazil with accumulated experience since Vetorial detain the ISO 9001 certification and is audited by PriceWaterhouseCoopers. The activities of the company are concentrated in Mato Grosso do Sul, where is responsible for more than direct jobs.

3 Vertically integrated with independent businesses: Vetorial Energy: Forestry management and charcoal production. The actual own forests are ha and its expanding to reach the forest sustainability and the total of ha in Vetorial Steel Mill: Pig Iron production with a capacity of ton per year shared among the three industrial units. Vetorial Mining: Exportation and production of iron ore with resources estimated in more than 10bi ton. Today its part of VETRIA Holding. Log Brasil: Logistic company with a shared control (50%). 3

18 CARBORAAD - SIMULATION SOFTWARE TO CONTROL THE CARBONIZATION PROCESS AND CHARCOAL QUALITY Integrated management system to control production plans and real results (daily, monthly and yearly) 18

19 HEAT EXCHANGE SYSTEM TO REDUCE CHARCOAL COOLING Kiln with heat exchange = Taxa de 0,56 oc/hora Kiln without the system = Taxa de 0,20 oc/hora Increase the kiln productivity in about 20% related to total cycle

20 VETORIAL and its partnership with new technologies Total Production with Carbonization Software Control Development of Wood Drying System together with the MILL Technology Market Players to run together with the LIVEN rectangular kilns DPC Vetorial has rented and it will running by itself a Pilot DPC Plant at Parana State to validate process gains and the business plan
