All statements, when based upon expectations about the future and not on historical facts, involve various risks and uncertainties. Vale cannot guarantee that such statements will prove correct. These risks and uncertainties include factors related to the following: (a) the countries where we operate, especially Brazil and Canada; (b) the global economy; (c) the capital markets; (d) the mining and metals prices and their dependence on global industrial production, which is cyclical by nature; and (e) global competition in the markets in which Vale operates.

We remain committed to delivering additional productivity gains

  • Improvement in availability of the transportation fleet

in the Northern System

  • Resizing of infrastructure, drilling and transportation

fleets

  • Optimization of mine plans
  • Ramp up of the Itabirites projects
  • Improvement in the yield of the concentration plants
  • Extension of the natural screening process to older

plants in Carajás

  • Full automatic operation of reclaimers
  • Automated operation of trains
  • Implementation of innovative technology:

− Distributed traction technology − Energy control systems at the ports − Reverse routes at the ports

Mine Beneficiation Logistics corridors

High quality products will replace lower grade material and improve margins

And we are about to operate some of the most competitive assets in the world

Meanwhile, we continue to divest non-core assets and form strategic partnerships

From these divestments and partnerships we expect to raise US$ 6-7 billion in cash proceeds in 2015

Results from our initiatives are already setting the basis for strong free cash flow generation as of 2018

  • Capex will be around US$ 4 billion
  • Volumes will increase by about 40% in iron ore, 20% in copper

and 15% in nickel

  • Costs will decrease with higher productivity, further dilution of

fixed costs and expenses, and organizational restructuring

  • Iron ore quality will support an increase in price realization
  • Freight costs will decrease
  • Free cash flow and dividends will reach unprecedented levels

and debt will reduce gradually
