SAF BOTAFOGO informs its supporters of the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) held on June 29, 2026, with the full participation of its voting share capital, at which it was resolved to immediately remove Messrs. John Charles Textor, Kevin Weston, and Jordan Eliott Fikesenbaum from their positions on the Board of Directors.

In light of the single-judge decision issued by the Hon. Appellate Judge Luiz Eduardo C. Canabarro in Appeal No. 3012737-71.2026.8.19.0000/RJ, the company’s shareholders, representing 100% of its voting share capital, decided on the measure in question in order to definitively dispel any doubts regarding the members composing the company’s management.

It should be noted that since April 28, by order of Judge Marcelo Mondego de Carvalho Lima, in the context of Judicial Reorganization No. 3071097-93.2026.8.19.0001, SAF BOTAFOGO has been under the management of a Court-Appointed Administrator, a position initially held by Mr. Durcésio Mello and currently held by Mr. Eduardo Iglesias.

To form the new Board of Directors, the shareholders elected Messrs. Estevão Prates Benincá, Ricardo Menezes Mello, and Carlos Thiago Cesario Alvim. In addition to the Board of Directors, new members were also appointed to the SAF’s Fiscal Council: Messrs. Fernando José Ferreira Gomes Damasceno and Pedro Marcelo Luzardo Aguiar.

SAF BOTAFOGO congratulates the new members, reaffirming its commitment to transparency and its new institutional phase.
