F) Odebrecht and PQBA are the holders of 39.72% and 16.07%, respectively, of the

1 - Definitions:
1.1 The terms and expressions written in capital letters shall have the meanings
set out in the Agreement herein amended.
2 - Object Matter:
2.1 Vote Cast in the Deliberative Bodies of Norquisa. The Parties do hereby
decide to amend the Agreement so as to determine that, without prejudice to the
provisions regarding the right to vote provided by Clause 4 thereof, the Parties
must hold Previous Meetings before the General Meetings of Norquisa, in order to
set forth the orientation of the votes from its representatives. Except as
otherwise determined by the Parties, such Previous Meetings must be held one
(01) hour before the time scheduled for the General Meeting and at that place
informed in the calling edict for the General Meeting.
The resolutions of said Previous Meeting shall be adopted by simple majority of
votes - it being understood that each common share of Norquisa entitles its
holder to one (01) vote - and are vote agreements that bind the vote from the
Parties as to the respective General Meeting.
2.2 New Parties to the Agreement. In view of the new formation of the corporate
capital of Norquisa and Braskem S/A after said Corporate Restructuring, ODBPAR
Investimentos S/A and Odebrecht S/A start being Parties to the Agreement, for
any purposes whatsoever.
3 - Jurisdiction:

hereunder, the Parties hereby elect the Court of the County of the Capital of
the State of Bahia to settle any disputes or controversies arising hereof,
excluding any other one, the most privileged it might be.
And, being thus fair and agreed, the Parties cause this Amendment to be signed
in two (02) copies of equal form and substance, and for a single effect, in the
