"As of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on September 19, 2023 (the “Early Tender Date”), according to information received from D.F. King & Co., Inc., the information and tender agent for the Offers: (i) U.S.$250,552,000, or approximately 50.18% of the principal amount outstanding, of the 2026 Notes was validly tendered, and not validly withdrawn; and (ii) U.S.$132,305,000, or approximately 22.49% of the principal amount outstanding, of the 2030 Notes was validly tendered, and not validly withdrawn. The following table sets forth the principal amount of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, as well as the principal amount of Notes that BRF has accepted for purchase, after giving effect to the Maximum Amount, Acceptance Priority Levels and proration (as described below).


(1) The “Maximum Amount” represents the maximum combined aggregate principal amount of Notes that will be purchased in the Offers.

(2) As reported by D.F. King & Co., Inc., the information and tender agent for the Offers, as of the Early Tender Date.

(3) Because the Maximum Amount was exceeded, BRF will accept 2026 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the Offers and no 2030 Notes, based on the Acceptance Priority Levels (as defined below) and will apply proration to the 2026 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Early Tender Date as described below and under “The Offers—Maximum Amount; Acceptance Priority Levels; Proration” in the Offer to Purchase.



Since the purchase of all 2026 Notes and 2030 Notes validly tendered in the Offers on or prior to the Early Tender Date would cause BRF to purchase an aggregate principal amount of Notes in excess of the Maximum Amount, BRF will apply the Acceptance Priority Levels specified in the table above (each, an “Acceptance Priority Level,” with 1 being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and 2 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase. Accordingly, BRF will accept for purchase 2026 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or prior to the Early Tender Date on a prorated basis and no 2030 Notes.


Holders who validly tendered and did not validly withdraw their 2026 Notes in the 2026 Notes Offer on or prior to the Early Tender Date will be eligible to receive the total consideration of U.S.$952.50 per U.S.$1,000.00 principal amount of 2026 Notes tendered (the “2026 Total Consideration”), which includes an early tender premium of U.S.$30.00 per U.S.$1,000.00 principal amount of Notes validly tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Date and not validly withdrawn on or prior to the Withdrawal Date (the “Early Tender Premium”), subject to proration."

"São Paulo, Brazil – September 6, 2023 – BRF S.A. (“BRF”) today announces the commencement of an offer to purchase for cash for its own account and, in the case of the 2026 Notes, on behalf of BRF GmbH, a limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung) organized under the law of the Republic of Austria, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BRF (the “Subsidiary Issuer”), up to the Maximum Amount (as defined below) of the outstanding: (i) 4.350% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) issued by the Subsidiary Issuer and guaranteed by BRF (the “2026 Notes Offer”), and (ii) 4.875% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes” and, together with the 2026 Notes, the “Notes”) issued by BRF (the “2030 Notes Offer” and, together with the 2026 Notes Offer, the “Offers” and each, an “Offer”).


The Offers are made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase dated September 6, 2023 (the “Offer to Purchase”). The Offers are not contingent upon the tender of any minimum principal amount of Notes, but BRF will only purchase up to U.S.$200,000,000 in combined aggregate principal amount of Notes (the “Maximum Amount”).
