(ii) the monitoring, control, and review of the quality of processes executed by the Company, including activities aimed at maintaining external certifications and adherence to global standards;

(iii) support for risk management, internal controls, compliance, and cybersecurity, including policy definition, testing, training, awareness campaigns, and implementation of governance and information security structures;

Description of the negotiation process informing (i) who was responsible for deciding on the contract, (ii) whether the decision was taken by the competent administration body; and (iii) the administrators who participated in the decision

Service contracting is determined by global and local committees within the Santander Group, managed by executives who participate in technical decision-making and cost approval. The contracting process between related parties took into account the criticality and relevance of the scope involved, the magnitude of the transaction, and the need to ensure the security of financial information, minimize operational impact, and ensure business continuity.

 

The transaction was conducted in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s Related Party Transactions Policy, particularly item 5.1..

Main Terms and Conditions The negotiated amount for the listed services is EUR 44,020,145.00 (forty-four million, twenty thousand, one hundred and forty-five euros), equivalent to BRL 264,613,895.62 (two hundred and sixty-four million, six hundred and thirteen thousand, eight hundred and ninety-five reais and sixty-two centavos), based on the EUR/BRL exchange rate as of March 10, 2026.
Absence of withdrawal rights Not applicable.
Participation of the related party, its partners or administrators in the decision-making process and negotiation of the transaction

Although officers of Santander Group entities participated in the internal evaluation and approval processes of the transaction, the negotiation and execution of the contractual instruments were conducted independently and based on objective arm’s length criteria.

 

No shareholder or director of the related party interfered in a manner that could compromise the impartiality of the negotiation, and the final decisions regarding the engagement were made based on economic criteria, operational efficiency factors, and applicable regulatory compliance requirements.

.

Reasons why the issuer´s management considers that the transaction was carried out on an arm’s length basis or sets forth adequate compensation The transaction observed arm’s length conditions, on a strictly commercial basis, duly validated according to parameters and methodologies practiced by the market and parameterized in previous transactions of the same nature.
