Braskem S.A. (“Braskem” or “Company”), pursuant to Instruction 384/2003 of the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) and Resolution 293/2003 of the Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange – BM&FBovespa, hereby informs its shareholders and the market that, starting September 29, 2014, the services of Market Maker for its class "A" preferred shares will no longer be provided by BTG Pactual Corretora de Títulos e Valores Mobiliários S.A., and will be served by Credit Suisse (Brasil) S.A. Corretora de Títulos e Valores Mobiliários, with headquarters at Rua Leopoldo Couto de Magalhães Jr., 700 – 10º andar (parte) e 12º a 14º andares, in the city and state of São Paulo, inscribed in the corporate taxpayers register (CNPJ/MF) under no. 42.584.318/0001-07. The Company currently has 264,665,622 (two hundred sixty-four million, six hundred sixty-five thousand, six hundred twenty-two) outstanding class "A" preferred shares.
The agreement with Credit Suisse is valid for 12 (twelve) months, renewable for similar terms if neither party informs of its decision to the contrary. It is important to mention that no other agreement was signed with Credit Suisse regulating the exercise of voting rights or the purchase or sale of securities issued by Braskem.
The Market Maker is an agent that undertakes to maintain a regular and continuous flow of purchase and sale offers, thus ensuring minimum liquidity and a benchmark price for the share, while respecting the predetermined spread. The hiring of the new market maker underlines Braskem’s commitment to its investors by fostering the liquidity of its shares.
