EXTRACT TO THE MINUTES TO THE MEETING OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HELD ON DECEMBER 19, 2024

4. Date, Time, and Place: On December 19, 2024, at 5:00 p.m, held at the headquarters of Sendas Distribuidora SA (“Company”), located in the City of Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro, at Avenida Ayrton Senna, no. 6.000, Lote 2, Pal 48959, Annex A, Jacarepaguá, Zip Code 22.775-005.

5. Call and Attendance: Call notice given in accordance with the rules of procedure and attendance by the totality of members of the Company's Board of Directors, Messrs. Oscar de Paula Bernardes Neto - Chairman of the Board of Directors, José Guimarães Monforte - Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors, Andiara Pedroso Petterle, Belmiro de Figueiredo Gomes, Enéas Cesar Pestana Neto, Júlio César de Queiroz Campos, Leila Abraham Loria, Leonardo Porciúncula Gomes Pereira and José Roberto Meister Müssnich.

Board: Chairman: Oscar de Paula Bernardes Neto; Secretary: Tamara Rafiq Nahuz.

7. Agenda: Analysis and resolution on the voluntary delisting of the Company's American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), represented by American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and deregistration with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States (“SEC”).

5. Resolutions: The members of the Board of Directors discussed and resolved, unanimously and without reservations, based on the favorable recommendation of the Company's Finance and Investment Committee, to approve (i) the voluntary delisting of the Company's ADSs, represented by ADRs, of the NYSE, including the amendment of the Company's ADR Program to Level 1, in order to enable investors to keep their ADSs and trade them on over-the-counter markets after delisting; and (ii) the deregistration with the SEC, to effect the termination of the disclosure obligations established by the Securities and Exchange Act, as amended. The decision is based on management's assessment that maintaining a secondary listing at NYSE is not currently beneficial, given that trading of the Company's common shares is predominantly concentrated on B3’s segment Novo Mercado, being in line with the Company’s long-term strategy of maintaining efficient operations, given the low cost characteristic of the Company (“low-cost company”). Furthermore, it was decided that even after the delisting of the Company's shares of NYSE and its deregistration with SEC are effective, the Company will voluntarily maintain its current corporate governance practices.

The members of the Board of Directors unanimously approved, without reservations, the authorization to the Company's Executive Board to carry out all acts and adopt all measures necessary and/or convenient to operationalize the approval above, including, but not limited to: (i) filing of the Form 25 with the SEC, with a copy to NYSE, in order to effect the delisting of the ADSs; (ii) filing of the Form 15F with SEC; (iii) obtaining eventual approvals from any regulatory bodies and authorities, as well as providing the other necessary documents with the bookkeeper, the ADR’s depositary and NYSE, including measures for changing and/or cancelling the Company’s ADR Program; and (iv) hiring legal advisors and/or other institutions necessary for mentioned operationalization.

6. Adjournment: With no further business to discuss, these minutes were drawn up, read, approved and signed by those present. Chairman: Mr. Oscar de Paula Bernardes Neto; Secretary: Ms. Tamara Rafiq Nahuz. Attending members of the Board of Directors: Oscar de Paula Bernardes Neto, José Guimarães Monforte, Andiara Pedroso Petterle, Belmiro de Figueiredo Gomes, Enéas Cesar Pestana Neto, Júlio César de Queiroz Campos, Leila Abraham Loria, Leonardo Porciúncula Gomes Pereira and José Roberto Meister Müssnich.
