Actively and preferably pursue consolidation aiming at a healthier industry.

Continue the promotion of growth through expansions and partnerships in a disciplined way.

Maintain active forest formation to be ready for growth opportunities.

Consolidate our position in the 10% lowest cash cost players in the industry by:

• Achieving MAICEL of15,0 tons/ha/year of pulp by 2025 for new planted forests.

• Pursuing a minimum of 10% of differentiated pulp volume priced at a premium.

Diversify its cash flow through focused investments in non pulp businesses, leveraging Fibria´s key assets and competencies.

Achieve a sizable free cash flow from new businesses in comparison with pulp business.

Co-processing is one of few compliance options for Refiners to comply with regulatory obligations

Co-processing is the lowest cost compliance solution for refiners, saving them millions of dollars in compliance annually

• Sale of biocrude to refinery – based on its performance relative to crude oil based feedstocks

• Monetization of credits under the RFS2 Program

• Credit prices move inversely with the price of oil

• Monetization of credits generated by Californian refineries under the LCFS Program

• Monetization of credits generated by Californian refineries under the Carbon Cap and Trade program

Industry Lignin Commercialization Status

Lignosulfonates

• Long term businesses, well established products

• Markets in concrete and dispersants

• Dominated by Borregaard, also SAPPI and Rayonier (Tembec)

Kraft lignin

• Long term market presence of MeadWestvaco, now Ingevity, producing mainly sulfonated kraft lignin for dispersants market (~60kT/y).

• Recent entrants:

• Domtar – softwood kraft using LignoBoost process (20 kT/y); “BioChoice™”

• West Fraser – softwood kraft using LignoForce process (15kT/y) – mainly internal use in board products; developing outside sales

• Stora Enso – softwood kraft using LignoBoost process (50kT/y)

• Fibria planning eucalyptus kraft lignin plant for start-up late 2019

Directions in Lignin Development

Many companies, institutes and universities are working on lignin – three main approaches:

Lignin as an ingredient, as-is

Replacing a petrochemical component in a product formulation

Modified lignin as an ingredient or as the product

Physical and/or chemical modification

Lignin as a feedstock or precursor for a non-lignin product

Chemical and/or physical transformation

FIBRIA.COM.BR 36

It’s all about chemistry

• You can make almost anything (organic) from lignin - it’s just a matter of:

– Thermal energy

– Chemical energy

• Cost of the process energy, catalysts and chemicals (and their recovery)

• Cost of down processing (separating, purifying, washing, drying, conditioning)

• Capital cost of the facility; where to locate it

• Yield of the target derivative

• Cost of disposal of the unwanted by-products

• The more work we do, the higher the value, but the higher the cost of manufacture

• Ultimately we have to make a profit!

Lignin Business development

Fibria favours partnership approach

• Build relationships with early adopters of lignin in a diverse range of applications with different levels of maturity

• Joint development activities with customers:

• Information exchange under NDA

• Focus on repeatable lignin quality to meet customer needs

• Specification development

• Jointly solve challenges

• Consider mutual exclusivity for high potential customers

• Deliver large scale samples for trials

• Prepare for commercial relationship
