12.2. Describe the rules, policies and practices related to stockholders’ meetings, indicating:

 

a) call notice terms

 

According to Article 124, item II of Brazilian Corporate Law, the term for the first call for the stockholders’ meetings of publicly-held companies is fifteen days before the date of the meeting and, for the second call, eight days.

 

The Extraordinary Stockholders’ Meeting of September 14, 2016 was called with over 30 days in advance, in view of the Company’s voluntary adoption of the remote voting system, in line with the best market practices.

 

b) duties

 

It is incumbent upon the Annual General Stockholders’ Meeting to:

 

·amend the bylaws;

 

·appoint, elect and remove members of the Board of Directors ;

 

·appoint the members of the Fiscal Council;

 

·resolve upon the financial statements and the distribution and investment of profits;

 

·resolve upon the management report and the accounts of the Executive Board;

 

·establish the annual aggregate compensation of the members of the Board of Directors and the Executive Board;

 

·change the capital, provided that the authority of the Board of Directors to change the capital up to the limit of the authorized capital is observed, regardless of a statutory reform;

 

·resolve upon mergers, takeovers and spin-offs or any other forms of corporate restructuring;

 

·resolve upon retained earnings or the allocation to reserves; and

 

·resolve upon stock option plans of shares issued by the Issuer or its subsidiaries.

 

c) addresses (street or electronic) where the documents related to the stockholders’ meeting will be available to stockholders for analysis

 

The documents to be analyzed at the stockholders’ meetings are available to Stockholders on the Issuer’s investor relations website (www.itau.com.br/investor-relations), as well as on the website of the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) (http://www.cvm.gov.br) or on the website of BM&FBOVESPA (www.bmfbovespa.com.br). Stockholders may also request a copy of these documents via the e-mail address [email protected].

 

d) Identification and management of conflicts of interest

 

According to paragraphs 1 and 4 of Article 115 of Brazilian Corporate Law, stockholders cannot vote in meetings that are intended to resolve upon appraisal reports on assets used to form the capital, approval of their accounts as management members or any other resolution that could particularly benefit them, or where their interests are in conflict with those of the Issuer, under penalty of: (i) the resolution being voided, (ii) being held liable for the damages caused, and (iii) being required to transfer to the Issuer any advantages obtained.

 

   

 

 

e) Request for proxies by management for the exercise of voting rights

 

The availability of proxies was enabled by us according to Attachment 23 to CVM Instruction No. 481/09 for the sole purpose of offering an additional mechanism to facilitate the attendance of stockholders at the meetings. For the meetings held during the last three years, the proxy request was fully funded by the Issuer.

 

f) formalities necessary for accepting proxy instruments granted by stockholders, indicating whether the issuer requires or waives notarized signatures, notarization, consularization and sworn translation and if the issuer accepts proxies granted by stockholders via electronic means

 

The stockholders can be represented in annual general stockholders’ meetings by a proxy under the terms of Article 126 of Brazilian Corporate Law, provided that the proxy is bearing an identity document and the following documents that evidence the validity of their proxy (for documents issued overseas, the respective sworn translation, certified by the local consulate is required):

 

a) Legal entities – certified copy of the bylaws of the legal entity represented, evidence of the election of management members and the respective proxy with notarized signature;

 

b) Individuals – the proxy, with notarized signature.

 

It is not necessary for the corporate shareholder’s proxy to be a shareholder, an administrator of the Issuer, or an attorney.

 

In order to facilitate the work of the Stockholders’ Meetings, we suggested at the Extraordinary Stockholders’ Meeting of September 14, 2016 that the Stockholders represented by proxy holders had to submit, until 12 p.m. on September 13, 2016, a copy of the documents listed above by mail or by messenger to:

 

Itaú Unibanco - Gerência Paralegal de Assuntos Corporativos
Praça Alfredo Egydio de Souza Aranha, 100,
Torre Conceição, Piso Metrô - Parque Jabaquara
São Paulo (SP) - CEP 04344-902
or for e-mail to [email protected].

 

g) Formalities required for acceptance of a distance voting ballot, when sent directly to the Company, indicating whether the issuer requires or waives notarized signatures, notarization and consularization.

 

Stockholders wishing to vote by using the remote voting form may forward their voting instructions related to the matters to be resolved on at the Meeting:

 

·          by remote voting form forwarded directly to the Issuer; or

 

·          by completion instructions transmitted to their custody agents providing such service, in the case of Holders of shares deposited at a central depository.

 

Stockholders forwarding the voting form directly to the Issuer

 

Stockholders choosing to exercise their remote voting right may do so directly to the Issuer and are required to send the following documents:

 

(i)          a physical copy of the Remote Voting Form duly completed, initialized and signed (a sworn translation, certified by the local consulate, is not required for documents in foreign language); and

 

   

 

 

(ii)          ID document – for Legal Entities: a notarized copy of the articles of association/ bylaws, proof of election of management, and a notarized copy of the ID document of these representatives; for Individuals: a notarized copy of the ID document bearing the Stockholder’s picture. The respective consularized and sworn translation of documents produced abroad is required.

 

If they so prefer, Stockholders may forward digitalized copies of the documents referred to in (i) and (ii) above to e-mail [email protected], and, in this case, it is mandatory that they also forward the original copy of the voting form and the notarized copy of the other required documents. Specifically for the Extraordinary Stockholders’ of September 14, 2016, Stockholders had to forward such documents up to September 8, 2016 to:

 

Itaú Unibanco - Gerência Paralegal de Assuntos Corporativos
Praça Alfredo Egydio de Souza Aranha, 100, Torre Conceição, Piso Metrô
Parque Jabaquara, São Paulo (SP) - CEP 04344-902

 

After the documents referred to in (i) and (ii) above are received, the Issuer will notify the Stockholder that it has received and accepted them, in accordance with CVM Instruction 481/09.

 

If the voting form is forwarded directly to the Issuer, but it is not fully completed or does not include the supporting documents described in item (ii) above, this form will be disregarded, and this information will be forwarded to the Stockholder at the electronic address stated in the voting form.

 

After the voting term elapses, Stockholders will no longer be able to change the voting instructions sent. The last voting instruction submitted by the Stockholder will be the one included in the Issuer’s voting map.

 

Stockholders forwarding the form to the custody agents

 

Alternatively, Stockholders may choose to exercise their remote voting right through service providers, transmitting their voting instructions to their custody agents, subject to the rules determined by the latter. Stockholders should contact the custody agent to check the procedures established by such agents, as well as the documents requested accordingly.

 

Stockholders should transmit the form completion instructions to their custody agents within the period specified by the Issuer, except if otherwise stated by these agents. Specifically for the Extraordinary Stockholders’ meeting called for September 14, 2016, the period specified by the Issuer was September 8, 2016.

 

h) Whether the company makes available an electronic system to receive distance voting ballots or distance participation

 

For the Extraordinary Stockholders’ meeting held on September 14, 2016, the Issuer adopted the remote voting system, even though it was optional for 2016 and the matters to be resolved on at the Extraordinary Stockholders’ Meeting did not require the use of the remote voting form, in accordance with CVM Instruction 481/09, as amended by CVM Instruction 561/15.

 

i) Instructions for the stockholder or group of stockholders to include proposals for resolution, slates or applicants to members of the board of directors and fiscal council in the distance voting ballot.

 

For the first time, we adopted voluntarily the remote voting system for the Extraordinary Stockholders’ meeting of September 14, 2016, that addressed one single specific matter, that is, the proposed bonus shares. Accordingly, the inclusion of proposals related to resolutions, slates or applicants for the boards of directors and fiscal council did not apply to this meeting.

 

   

 

 

j) Whether the company will make available forums and pages on the Internet designed for receiving and sharing comments of stockholders on the meetings’ agendas

 

We have no forums designed for receiving and sharing stockholders’ comments on the meetings’ agendas. However, we make a channel available on the investor relations website (www.itau.com.br/investor-relations) so that stockholders can send suggestions, criticisms or doubts directly to the Board of Directors through the link “Contact IR” on the Investor Relations website: https://www.itau.com.br/investor-relations/itau-unibanco/contact-ir. In the field “Subject”, the Stockholder should select the option “Recommendations to the Board of Directors for Stockholders’ Meeting”

 

The Extraordinary Stockholders’ Meeting Manual, published on August 12, 2016, is available on our Investor Relations website at the specific link www.itau.com.br/_arquivosestaticos/RI/pdf/en/Manual_AGE_2016_eng.pdf.

 

k) Other information required to distance voting and exercise of the distant voting right

 

The Issuer has decided to voluntarily adopt the remote voting system for the Extraordinary Stockholders’ Meeting of September 14, 2016 related to the specific matter of the proposed share bonus. The information required for stockholders to exercise their remote voting right is included in the Meeting Manual.

 

This decision demonstrates our commitment to promote the best corporate governance practices, by encouraging all stockholders to exercise their voting right and the transparency in the market.
