(i) due to the merger of Cosan Log into Cosan (“Cosan Log Merger”) and the end of the term to exercise the withdrawal rights guaranteed to Cosan Log shareholders, pursuant to articles 252, paragraph 2 and 137, paragraph 1, of the Brazilian Corporation Law, which ended on February 23, 2021 (“Withdrawal Rights”) without any shareholder exercising their intent on withdrawing from Cosan Log, Cosan’s capital stock increase was confirmed, through the issuance of 31,025,350 (thirty one million, twenty five thousand, three hundred and fifty) new common Cosan shares, by a total subscription price of R$638,374,501.48 (six hundred and thirty eight million, three hundred and seventy four thousand, five hundred and one reais and forty eight cents), corresponding to R$20.58 (twenty reais and fifty eight cents) per share (“Capital Increase”). Due to the Capital Increase, common shares of Cosan to be attributed to Cosan Log’s shareholders, in replacement of the common shares they hold issued by Cosan Log, will have the same rights attributed to the common Cosan shares previously existent, and will fully take part in all benefits, including dividends, thin capitalization and other revenues that may be declared by Cosan as of the Cosan Log Merger;

(iii) ratification of the approval of the corporate restructuring by the Companies’ General Meetings, held on January 22, 2021 (“General Meetings”), which consists of a merger of companies under common control, as provided for by art. 264, paragraph 4th, of Law No. 6,404, dated of December 15, 1976 (“Brazilian Corporation Law”), pursuant to which CZZ and Cosan Log were merged into Cosan (“CZZ Merger” and “Cosan Log Merger” respectively and, jointly, the “Transaction”), shall remain valid and effective from the date of its approval in the Meetings, without prejudice to any acts carried out by CZZ and Cosan Log up to this date, which shall be validated by Cosan for all legal purposes, as the legal successor of the merged companies.

According to the previously disclosed timeline, as of the trading session of March 8, 2021, the shares issued by Cosan Log (B3: RLOG3) will stop being traded in B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (“B3”) and, from this date, the shareholders which hold shares issued by Cosan Log by the end of the trading session on March 5, 2021 may negotiate with the shares issued by Cosan (B3: CSAN3) which will be received based upon he exchange ratio of one (1) share of Cosan for each 3.943112 shares issued by Cosan Log held on March 5, 2021. On March 10, 2021, the shares issued by Cosan given to Cosan Log shareholders based upon the exchange ratio will be visible on the B3 system.

On March 5, 2021, CZZ shares will stop being traded in the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and, as of March 8, 2021, Cosan’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) will be traded on a “When-Issued” basis on NYSE, under the symbol “CSAN WI”, CUSIP No. “22113B 103”, whose regular trading is expected to commence on March 11, 2021. On such date, the holders of Class A shares issued by CZZ will receive ADSs from Cosan and holders of Class B shares issued by CZZ will receive Cosan shares based upon the exchange ratio of one (1) ADS (considering that each ADS represents one common share of Cosan) issued by Cosan for each 0.772788 Class A share issued by CZZ.

JP Morgan Chase, the depositary agent of Cosan’s ADS program granted Cosan’s request and has agreed to waive the cancellation fee for ADSs cancellations completed during the initial period of fifteen (15) calendar days from the first issuance of Cosan’s ADSs in connection with the CZZ Merger.

The Companies will keep their shareholders and the market in general updated on any progress regarding the Transaction.
