MERGER PROPOSED—YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT

(“ Fibria ”) are invited to attend the extraordinary general shareholders meeting of Fibria scheduled for September 13, 2018 at 9:30 am, Brasilia Time (BRT). At the extraordinary general shareholders meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve a business combination of Fibria and Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. (“ Suzano ”), as contemplated by the terms and conditions agreed by the controlling shareholders of Fibria and the controlling shareholders of Suzano and set forth in the merger agreement entered into by Fibria and Suzano on July 26, 2018 (the “ Merger Agreement ”), pursuant to which Fibria will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Suzano by way of a merger of shares ( incorporação de ações ) under Brazilian law (the “ Merger ”).

Upon effectiveness of the Merger, holders of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Fibria (“ Fibria Shares ”) at the record date set in accordance with the Merger Agreement will receive common shares of Suzano with no par value (“ Suzano Shares ”), and holders of Fibria Shares represented by ADSs (“ Fibria ADSs ”, and, together with Fibria Shares, “ Fibria Securities ”) at the record date set in accordance with the Merger Agreement and the Fibria Deposit Agreement (as defined herein) will receive Suzano Shares represented by ADSs (“ Suzano ADSs ”, and, together with Suzano Shares, “ Suzano Securities ”). All Suzano Securities outstanding at the closing date of the Merger (the “ Closing Date ”) will remain outstanding following completion of the Merger.

Upon the completion of the Merger and subject to the withdrawal rights described below:

• holders of Fibria Shares will receive, without any further action by those holders, 0.4611 Suzano Shares and R$ 52.50 for each Fibria Share they hold (as adjusted prior to the Closing Date as described herein), plus cash in exchange for any fractional Suzano Shares; and

• holders of Fibria ADSs will receive, subject to the procedures for certificated registered holders described herein, 0.23055 Suzano ADSs (representing 0.4611 Suzano Shares) and the equivalent in U.S. Dollars of R$ 52.50 for each Fibria ADS that they hold (as adjusted prior to the Closing Date as described herein), plus cash in exchange for any entitlement to fractional Suzano Shares and fractional Suzano ADSs. Each Suzano ADS represents 2 Suzano Shares.

Based on the number of Fibria Shares outstanding on the date hereof, Suzano expects to issue 255,081,014 Suzano Shares to Fibria shareholders in the Merger and expects a total of 1,360,907,159 Suzano Shares to be outstanding following the completion of the Merger. Immediately following the closing of the Merger, holders of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs prior to the Merger are expected to own approximately 18.91%, and holders of Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs prior to the Merger are expected to own approximately 81.09%, respectively, of the outstanding Suzano Shares immediately following the closing of the Merger, assuming that Suzano does not issue any additional Suzano Shares between the date hereof and the closing of the Merger.

The Fibria Shares are listed on the São Paulo Stock Exchange ( B3 S.A. – Bolsa, Brasil, Balcão , or the “ B3 ”), under the symbol “FIBR3”, and the Fibria ADSs (representing Fibria Shares) are also listed on the New York Stock Exchange (referred to as the “ NYSE ”), under the symbol “FBR”. Following the completion of the Merger,

Table of Contents

the Fibria ADSs will be delisted from the NYSE, Fibria will be deregistered under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”) and from the Brazilian Securities Commission ( Comissão de Valores Mobiliários , referred to as the “ CVM ”) and the Fibria Shares will be delisted from the B3.

The Suzano Shares are listed on the B3 under the symbol “SUZB3”, and the Suzano ADSs (representing Suzano Shares) are traded on the over-the-counter markets in the United States, under the symbol “SUZBY”. Suzano will apply to list the Suzano ADSs on the NYSE, effective as of the Closing Date.

The Merger requires the approval of holders of at least 50% of the issued and voting share capital of Fibria, at an extraordinary general shareholders meeting duly called under Brazilian law. The Merger also requires approval by Suzano’s shareholders. In addition to the approval by the shareholders of Fibria and the shareholders of Suzano, the Merger must be approved by regulatory agencies in multiple jurisdictions, as further described herein. There can be no assurance that the requisite regulatory approvals will be achieved or that all other conditions precedent to the completion of the Merger will be met.

The Suzano Controlling Shareholders (as defined herein) have entered into the Voting Agreement (as defined herein) with the Fibria Controlling Shareholders (as defined herein), under which such shareholders of Fibria have agreed to vote in favor of the Merger. The Fibria Controlling Shareholders hold, as of the date hereof, 58.5% of the outstanding Fibria Shares. In order to approve the Merger Proposal (as defined herein), holders of at least 50% of Fibria Shares must vote in favor of the Merger. The Fibria Controlling Shareholders and the Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed that their commitments to vote for and support the Merger will expire 18 months from March 15, 2018, unless such date is extended by mutual agreement of the parties. Therefore, assuming that all conditions precedent are satisfied or waived (where legally permissible), Suzano currently expects that the Merger will be consummated before the end of 2019.

Holders of Fibria Shares who vote to approve the Merger Proposal will not have appraisal or withdrawal rights under Brazilian Law No. 6.404/76, as amended (the “ Brazilian Corporation Law ”). Holders of Fibria Shares who vote against the approval of the Merger Proposal, or who do not vote on the approval of the Merger Proposal, will have withdrawal rights under the Brazilian Corporation Law. Holders of Fibria ADSs will not be able to exercise withdrawal rights, even if they give instructions to the Fibria Depositary (as defined herein) to vote against the Merger Proposal.

The Merger Agreement was approved by the board of directors of Fibria (the “ Fibria Board of Directors ”) on July 26, 2018.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and the other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus contain or may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”) and the Exchange Act. Forward looking terms such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “potential,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “project,” “target,” “believe,” “estimate” or “expect” and other words, terms and phrases of similar nature are often intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Forward-looking statements are statements which are not historical fact and involve estimates, expectations, projections, goals, forecasts, assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements related to:

• the Merger and the expected timing and satisfaction of conditions precedent prior to the Closing Date, including among others, the approval of the Merger by shareholders of each of Fibria and Suzano, regulatory and governmental approvals and other customary closing conditions;

• the future growth opportunities, expected earnings, expected capital expenditures, future financing requirements and estimated future dividends or other distributions; and

• the expectation that Suzano and its subsidiaries will remain compliant with debt covenants and other contractual obligations.

Forward-looking statements in this prospectus are based on current expectations and assumptions made by the management of Suzano. Although the management of Suzano believes that the expectations and assumptions on which such forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements. We can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Additionally, forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or expectations expressed in this prospectus. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, or that could contribute to such differences, include, without limitation, the risks and uncertainties set forth under the section entitled “Risk Factors”. Some of the key risks and uncertainties include statements related to:

• Suzano’s direction and future operation and the implementation of Suzano’s principal operating strategies;

• difficulties, unexpected costs and delays in integrating Suzano’s and Fibria’s businesses, business model and culture after the Merger and the inability to realize synergies, efficiencies or cost savings from the Merger;

• the failure to obtain regulatory, stock exchange and other third-party approvals in a timely manner or on conditions acceptable to the parties or the failure to satisfy other customary closing conditions or the failure of the Merger to be completed for any other reason (or to be completed in a timely manner);

• fluctuation in value of the Merger Consideration (including as a result of currency exchange fluctuations);

i

Table of Contents

• general economic, political and business conditions, both in Brazil and in Suzano’s and Fibria’s principal export markets;

• industry trends and the general level of demand for, and change in the market prices of, Suzano’s and Fibria’s products;

• the performance of the Brazilian and world economies, including deterioration in world economic conditions;

• existing and future governmental regulation, including tax, labor, pension and environmental laws and regulations and export or import tariffs (as applicable) in Brazil and in other markets in which Suzano and Fibria operate or to which Suzano and Fibria export their products;

• the competitive nature of the industries in which Suzano and Fibria operate;

• Suzano’s level of capitalization, including the levels of Suzano’s indebtedness and overall leverage;

• the cost and availability of financing;

• Suzano’s acquisitions, joint ventures, strategic alliances or divestiture plans, and ability to successfully integrate the operations of businesses or other assets that Suzano acquires, including through the Merger;

• the implementation of Suzano’s financing strategy and capital expenditure plans;

• inflation and fluctuations in currency exchange rates, including the Brazilian real and the U.S. dollar;

• legal and administrative proceedings to which Suzano or Fibria are or become party;

• the volatility of the prices of the raw materials Suzano and Fibria sell or purchase to use in their businesses; and

• other statements included in this prospectus that are not historical.

The foregoing list is not intended to be exhaustive, and there may be other key risks that are not listed above that are not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial. Should one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements made by us contained in this prospectus. As a result of the foregoing, readers should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus. The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. All such forward-looking statements are based upon information available as of the date of this prospectus or other specified date and speak only as of such date. Suzano disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements in this prospectus as a result of new information or future events, except as may be required under applicable securities law.

EXCHANGE RATES

The Brazilian foreign exchange system allows the purchase and sale of foreign currency and the international transfer of reais by any person or legal entity, regardless of the amount, subject to certain regulatory procedures.

Since 1999, the Central Bank of Brazil has allowed the real /U.S. dollar exchange rate to float freely, which resulted in increasing exchange rate volatility. Until early 2003, the real declined against the U.S. dollar. Between 2006 and 2008, the real strengthened against the U.S. dollar, except in the most severe periods of the global economic crisis. Given turmoil in international markets and the then-applicable Brazilian macroeconomic outlook, the real depreciated against the U.S. dollar from mid-2011 to early 2016. In particular, during 2015, due to the poor economic conditions in Brazil, including as a result of political instability, the real devalued at a rate much higher than in previous years. On September 24, 2015, the real fell to its lowest level since the introduction of the currency, at R$ 4.195 per US$ 1.00. Overall in 2015, the real depreciated 32%, reaching R$ 3.905 per US$ 1.00 on December 31, 2015. In early 2016, the real faced continuing fluctuations, primarily as a result of Brazil’s political instability, and appreciated against the U.S. dollar from March 2016 until early 2017. For most of 2017, the real continued to fluctuate, and has depreciated against the U.S. dollar since the beginning of 2018. As of August 10, 2018, the exchange rate for reais into U.S. dollars was R$ 3.847 per U.S.$ 1.00, based on the selling rate as reported by the Central Bank of Brazil. There can be no assurance that the real will not depreciate further against the U.S. dollar. The real may fluctuate against the U.S. dollar substantially in the future.

The Central Bank of Brazil has intervened occasionally to attempt to control instability in foreign exchange rates. We cannot predict whether the Central Bank of Brazil or the Brazilian federal government will continue to allow the real to float freely or will intervene in the exchange rate market by re-implementing a currency band system or otherwise. The real may depreciate or appreciate substantially against the U.S. dollar in the future.

Furthermore, Brazilian law provides that, whenever there is a serious imbalance in Brazil’s balance of payments or there are serious reasons to foresee a serious imbalance, temporary restrictions may be imposed on remittances of foreign capital abroad. We cannot assure you that such measures will not be taken by the Brazilian federal government in the future. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Brazil”.

The following tables set forth the selling rate, expressed in reais per U.S. dollar (R$/US$), for the periods indicated, as reported by the Central Bank of Brazil:

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE MERGER AND FIBRIA EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS MEETING

The following are some questions that you may have regarding the Merger and the other matters being considered at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting and brief answers to those questions. We urge you to read the remainder of this prospectus carefully, including, without limitation, the Merger Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, because the information in this section does not provide all the information that might be important to you with respect to the Merger. Additional important information is also contained in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus and the exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

Q: What is this document and why am I receiving it?

A: This document is a prospectus of Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A., or Suzano, relating to the common shares of Suzano, no par value, that will be issued as part of the Merger Consideration upon completion of the Merger. In connection with the Merger, Suzano is required by the Securities Act to deliver this document to all holders of Fibria Shares (including the Fibria Shares underlying the Fibria ADSs) that are U.S. residents. You should carefully review this document, because, as a holder of Fibria Shares or Fibria ADSs, you will be entitled to vote directly (in case of holders of Fibria Shares) or indirectly (through giving voting instructions in case of holders of Fibria ADSs) at the extraordinary general shareholders meeting that has been called in order for the shareholders of Fibria to approve the Merger Proposal.

Q: What is the proposed transaction on which I am being asked to vote?

A: You are being asked to vote on a merger of Fibria and Suzano. The terms and conditions of the Merger were agreed by the controlling shareholders of Fibria, which are BNDES Participações S.A - BNDESPAR (“ BNDESPAR ”) and Votorantim S.A. (“ Votorantim ”, and together with BNDESPAR, the “ Fibria Controlling Shareholders ”), the Suzano Controlling Shareholders and Suzano on March 15, 2018 and set forth in the Voting Agreement. The terms and conditions, as agreed by the Fibria Controlling Shareholders and the Suzano Controlling Shareholders in the Voting Agreement, will be memorialized in the Merger Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The Merger Agreement was approved by the Fibria Board of Directors and the Suzano Board of Directors and executed by Fibria and Suzano on July 26, 2018. The Merger, and the terms and conditions thereof as set forth in the Merger Agreement, along with the other proposals set forth in the Merger Proposal, are being submitted for approval to you and the other holders of Fibria Shares. In addition to approval by the shareholders of Fibria and Suzano, completion of the Merger will be subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions precedent, as described herein.

Q: What will happen in the Merger transaction?

A: If the Merger is approved by the shareholders of Fibria and Suzano, and subject to other conditions precedent as described herein, the Merger will be implemented through a merger of shares ( incorporação de ações ) under the Brazilian Corporation Law.

The Merger consists of a series of steps. First, the shares of Fibria will be merged into Eucalipto Holding S.A (“ Holding ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Suzano, which will issue 553,183,624 common shares and 553,183,624 redeemable preferred shares of capital stock (assuming no further issuance of Fibria or Suzano shares prior to the completion of the Merger). One common share and one redeemable preferred share of Holding will be exchanged for each share of Fibria, pursuant to a merger of shares ( incorporação de ações ). As a result of such merger of shares, Fibria will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Holding.

Immediately following the merger of shares of Fibria by Holding, (i) all of Holding’s preferred shares will be redeemed for cash and (ii) Holding’s common shares will be exchanged for Suzano Shares pursuant to a merger ( incorporação ) of Holding into Suzano.

Table of Contents

All of the foregoing steps will occur substantially simultaneously and will be conditioned on the effectiveness of each of the other steps. Accordingly, on the Closing Date, holders of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs will directly receive Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs, respectively, along with cash consideration, in the amounts set forth herein.

Suzano intends to merge Fibria into Suzano as soon as practicable following the Merger, subject to receipt of requisite regulatory or other approvals and consents and completion of required procedures customary for such a transaction. No assurance can be given as to when or whether any of these approvals and consents will be obtained or when such procedures will be concluded, and, as a result, no assurance can be given as to the eventual merger of Fibria into Suzano, after which Fibria would cease to exist and all of Fibria’s rights and obligations would be succeeded to by Suzano, pursuant to Brazilian law.

Q: What is the status of the Merger transaction?

A: The Merger Agreement was approved by both the Fibria Board of Directors and the Suzano Board of Directors, pursuant to Brazilian law and the provisions of Fibria’s and Suzano’s bylaws, respectively, on July 26, 2018. The Merger Agreement was entered into by Fibria, Holding and Suzano on July 26, 2018. Shareholders of both Fibria and Suzano are being asked to vote on the Merger Proposal at extraordinary general shareholders meetings, and if such approval is received, Fibria and Suzano will continue to seek completion of all formalities related to the Merger, including obtaining the necessary antitrust and other regulatory approvals. If and when such regulatory approvals are obtained, the Merger will be consummated and all outstanding Fibria Securities will be exchanged for Suzano Securities. Neither Suzano nor Fibria can predict the actual date on which the Merger will be completed, or whether it will be completed. For a discussion of the conditions to the completion of the Merger, see the section entitled “The Transaction Documents—Merger Agreement—Conditions Precedent to the Completion of the Merger”.

Q: What will I receive as a holder of Fibria Shares or Fibria ADSs if the Merger is consummated?

A: As a holder of Fibria Shares, for each Fibria Share that you hold, you will receive 0.4611 Suzano shares and R$ 52.50, adjusted prior to the Closing Date in accordance with fluctuations in CDI, plus cash in exchange for any fractional Suzano Share (collectively, the “ Share Merger Consideration ”).

As a holder of Fibria ADSs, for each Fibria ADS that you hold, you will receive 0.23055 Suzano ADSs (representing 0.4611 Suzano Shares) and R$ 52.50, adjusted prior to the Closing Date in accordance with fluctuations in CDI and any changes that may be made to the share-to-ADS ratio of our ADS program after the date of this prospectus, plus cash in exchange for any entitlement to fractional Suzano Shares and any fractional Suzano ADSs (collectively, the “ ADS Merger Consideration ”, and together with the Share Merger Consideration, the “ Merger Consideration ”). Each Suzano ADS represents 2 Suzano Shares.

Q: Are the Fibria Securities and the Suzano Securities traded on any stock exchange?

A: The Fibria Shares and the Suzano Shares are listed on the B3 under the symbols “FIBR3” and “SUZB3”, respectively. The Fibria ADSs are listed on the NYSE under the symbols “FBR”.

Q: Will the Suzano Shares or the Suzano ADSs to be issued to me at the completion of the Merger be traded on an exchange?

A: Yes. The Suzano Shares are listed on the B3 under the symbol “SUZB3”. Suzano will apply to list the Suzano ADSs on the NYSE, effective as of the Closing Date, but such listing is subject to Suzano fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the NYSE. There can be no assurance that the Suzano ADSs will be accepted for trading on the NYSE. For more information regarding the listing and trading of the Suzano ADSs, see the section entitled “The Merger—Listing of Suzano’s ADSs”.

Table of Contents

Suzano Shares received by holders of Fibria Shares in connection with the Merger will be freely transferable except for Suzano Shares issued to any holder of Fibria Shares deemed to be an “affiliate” of Suzano for purposes of U.S. federal securities law. For more information, see the section entitled “The Merger—Restrictions on Resales of Suzano Shares Received in the Merger”.

Q: Why are the Suzano Controlling Shareholders proposing the Merger with Fibria, and how was the Merger Consideration determined?

A: Suzano and Fibria are both producers and sellers of pulp, a commodity that follows a cyclical supply and demand pattern and involves a high cost of production. The Merger will reduce operating costs and generate substantial synergies in our areas of forestry, logistics and overheads, which will increase our competitiveness both in Brazil and overseas. The Merger will also enhance our stability of supply, and customers will benefit from continuity in service, through a greater portfolio of resources in relation to forestry, manufacturing sites and logistical options. The combination of our operations and shipping volumes with those of Fibria will allow us to ship products globally more efficiently and become an even more reliable supplier. Finally, the Merger will result in substantial positive externalities in the form of environmental and social benefits, as a result of our activities and our commitment to meet, and exceed, environmental standards and reduce CO 2 emission rates.

The Merger Consideration was determined through a negotiation process, and includes both cash and a share component in order to offer holders of Fibria Shares the benefit of synergies. The portion of the Merger Consideration consisting of Suzano Shares was determined in consideration of Suzano’s indebtedness policy, which provides for a maximum leverage ratio.

Q: How will I receive the Merger Consideration to which I am entitled?

A: If you hold Fibria Shares, the Suzano Shares and cash consideration that you are entitled to receive as a result of the Merger will automatically be credited to your account as promptly as practicable on the Closing Date.

If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs and you hold Fibria ADSs through a broker or other securities intermediary in The Depository Trust Company (“ DTC ”), no further action by you is required in connection with the Merger. If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs and you hold as a registered holder of uncertificated Fibria ADSs, no further action by you is required in connection with the Merger. If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs and you are a registered holder of certificated Fibria ADSs, to receive your Suzano ADSs, you must surrender your Fibria ADSs to the Fibria Depositary, complete the letter of transmittal (the “ Letter of Transmittal ”), which will be sent to you by the Fibria Depositary, and comply with the procedures described in the Letter of Transmittal. More information may be found under the section entitled “The Merger—Distribution of the Merger Consideration and Receipt of the Suzano Shares, Suzano ADSs and Cash Consideration—Receipt of Suzano ADSs”.

Q: How do I calculate the value of the Merger Consideration?

A: The consideration that is payable per Fibria Share or Fibria ADS is a fixed amount of Brazilian reais and a fixed number of Suzano Shares or Suzano ADSs, respectively. As the exchange rate of the real and the market price of Suzano Shares and Fibria Shares fluctuate, the implied value of the Merger Consideration, including in comparison to the value of Fibria Shares, will fluctuate too. As a result, the implied value of the Merger Consideration that you will receive upon the completion of the Merger could be greater than, less than or the same as the implied value of the Merger Consideration in U.S. dollars on the date of this prospectus or at the time of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. Based on the closing price per Suzano Share on August 10, 2018, the latest practicable trading day before the date of this prospectus, the value of the Merger Consideration for each Fibria Share in reais was approximately

Table of Contents

R$ 74.19. You are encouraged to obtain current stock price quotations for Fibria Shares, Fibria ADSs, Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs before deciding how to vote with respect to the Merger Proposal. The Fibria Shares are listed on the B3 under the symbol “FIBR3”, and the Fibria ADSs (representing Fibria Shares) are also listed on the NYSE under the symbol “FBR”. The Suzano Shares are listed on the B3 under the symbol “SUZB3”, and the Suzano ADSs (representing Suzano Shares) are traded on the over-the-counter markets in the United States, under the symbol “SUZBY”. The price of the Fibria Shares and the Suzano Shares on the B3 is reported in Brazilian reais .

Q: If I hold Fibria ADSs, will I have to pay ADS cancellation and issuance fees?

A: If you hold Fibria ADSs, a Fibria ADS cancellation fee of US$ 0.05 per Fibria ADS will be deducted from the cash component of the ADS Merger Consideration. However, you will not have to pay fees for the issuance of Suzano ADSs in exchange for your Fibria ADSs.

Q: Will I have to pay any brokerage commission?

A: You will not have to pay any brokerage commission if your Fibria Shares or Fibria ADSs are registered in your name. However, if your securities are held through a bank or broker or a custodian linked to a stock exchange, you should consult with them as to whether or not they charge any transaction fee or service charges in connection with the Merger. The sale of fractional entitlements to Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs will be subject to brokerage commissions to be deducted from the sale proceeds.

Q: What shareholder approvals are needed for the Merger?

A: To be approved, the Merger, along with the other proposals set forth in the Merger Proposal, requires an affirmative vote of holders of Fibria Shares representing at least 50% of the issued and voting share capital of Fibria, at an extraordinary general shareholders meeting duly called under Brazilian law. See “The Fibria Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting—Required Vote”.

The Merger also requires the approval of at least a majority of the votes cast at an extraordinary general shareholders meeting of Suzano where at least two-thirds (2/3) of the issued share capital of Suzano is present or represented at the meeting.

The Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting will be held on September 13, 2018, and the Suzano extraordinary general shareholders meeting will be held on September 13, 2018.

Q: Are any Fibria shareholders already committed to vote in favor of the proposal to approve the Merger?

A: Yes. The Fibria Controlling Shareholders, BNDESPAR and Votorantim, which together hold approximately 58.5% of the issued and outstanding Fibria Shares as of the date hereof, entered into the Voting Agreement (as defined herein) with the Suzano Controlling Shareholders and Suzano. Under the Voting Agreement, the Fibria Controlling Shareholders agreed to vote in favor of the Merger at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. For more information on the Voting Agreement, see the section entitled “The Transaction Documents—Voting Agreement”.

Q: Are there risks associated with the Merger?

A: Yes. There are a number of risks related to the Merger that are discussed in this prospectus and in the other documents incorporated by reference. In evaluating the Merger, before making any decision on whether and

Table of Contents

how to vote, you are urged to read carefully and in its entirety this prospectus, in particular the section entitled “Risk Factors”.

Q: What happens if the Merger is approved by Fibria’s shareholders?

A: If the Merger is approved by Fibria’s shareholders, Fibria is required to publish the minutes of the relevant shareholders meeting with the CVM and on Fibria’s website. Suzano and Fibria will then continue to seek the requisite approval for the transaction from various regulatory authorities in several jurisdictions, including Brazil, the United States, the European Union and China. As of the date hereof, Suzano has made filings with the relevant antitrust authorities of the United States, the European Union and China, and the United States authority has issued an early termination notice confirming that the Merger was cleared without restrictions in the United States of America. If and when such regulatory approvals are obtained, and subject to completion of other customary conditions precedent, the Merger will be consummated and holders of Fibria Securities will receive the Merger Consideration as described herein. There can be no assurances that the requisite regulatory approvals will be obtained or that all other conditions precedent to the completion of the Merger will be met. For a discussion of the conditions to the completion of the Merger, see the section entitled “The Transaction Documents—Merger Agreement—Conditions Precedent to the Completion of the Merger”.

Q: Do I have appraisal or dissenters’ rights for my Fibria Shares in connection with the Merger?

A: You have withdrawal rights with respect to your Fibria Shares under the circumstances described herein. Under Brazilian law, withdrawal rights are akin to appraisal or dissenters’ rights in that they permit shareholders to receive a fixed amount of cash in exchange for each Fibria Share calculated on the basis of the book value per share of Fibria’s shareholders’ equity, subject to the conditions set forth below and described in further detail herein. Other than the withdrawal rights described herein, you do not have appraisal or dissenters’ rights under Brazilian law.

Under Brazilian law, persons who were holders of record of Fibria Shares as of the date of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting, and who vote against the Merger Proposal, or do not vote at all to approve the Merger Proposal, at the extraordinary general shareholders meeting will be entitled to exercise withdrawal rights under Brazilian law in connection with the Merger. Withdrawal rights must be exercised within 30 days of the publication by Fibria of the minutes of Fibria’s extraordinary general shareholders meeting at which the Merger Proposal is approved. If any holders of Fibria Shares exercise this right, they will receive from Fibria a cash amount for their Fibria Shares equal to R$ 26.36 per share, calculated in accordance with the Brazilian Corporation Law, based on the book value per share of Fibria’s shareholders’ equity as set forth in Fibria’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2017, without prejudice to the right of such holders to request the preparation of a special balance sheet. Holders of Fibria Shares that exercise their withdrawal rights will receive the cash amount on the Closing Date. Holders of Fibria ADSs will not be able to exercise withdrawal rights, even if they give instructions to the Fibria Depositary (as defined herein) to vote against the Merger Proposal, nor will the Fibria Depositary exercise such rights on their behalf, even if given instructions to do so. Holders of Fibria ADSs who wish to assert withdrawal rights will need to become shareholders of Fibria in Brazil, in accordance with the procedures for withdrawing Fibria Shares under the Fibria Deposit Agreement, prior to September 13, 2018 and take all requisite actions to assert withdrawal rights as Fibria shareholders in Brazil within the time period set forth above. Other than the withdrawal rights under Brazilian law as described herein, holders of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs will have no appraisal or dissenters’ rights with respect to their Fibria Securities. For more information, see the sections entitled “Summary—Withdrawal Rights” and “The Merger—Principal Transaction Documents—Withdrawal Rights in the Merger”.

Table of Contents

Q: Are any other approvals from any third parties or governmental authorities required for the completion of the Merger?

A: Yes. Prior to the Closing Date, approval must be received by the relevant antitrust authorities in several jurisdictions, including Brazil, the U.S., the European Union and China. Additionally, approval must be received, as applicable, from ANTAQ, which is the Brazilian regulatory agency that regulates aquatic transportation.

Q: Are there any conditions to the Merger?

A: Yes. The completion and effectiveness of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction of several conditions, including the following:

• the approval of the Merger and, with respect to Fibria, the other items contained in the Merger Proposal on the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement by the shareholders of each of Fibria and Suzano at their respective extraordinary general shareholders meetings;

• the receipt of approvals by antitrust authorities in several jurisdictions, including Brazil, the United States, the European Union and China; and

• the receipt of the other requisite Brazilian regulatory approvals.

No assurance can be given as to when or whether any of these approvals and consents will be obtained, the terms and conditions that may be imposed in connection with their approvals and consents, or the consequences of failing to obtain the approvals and consents. For a discussion of the conditions to the completion of the Merger, see the section entitled “The Transaction Documents—Merger Agreement—Conditions Precedent to the Completion of the Merger”.

Q: What will happen to Fibria following the Closing Date?

A: Following the completion of the Merger, Fibria will be a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Suzano. After the Merger, Fibria will be deregistered under the Exchange Act, Fibria will no longer file Annual Reports on Form 20-F or make submissions on Form 6-K and Fibria will be deregistered from the CVM. In addition, the Fibria ADSs will be delisted from the NYSE and the Fibria Shares will be delisted from the B3. Suzano also intends to merge Fibria into Suzano as soon as practicable following the completion of the Merger, subject to receipt of the requisite regulatory and other approvals and consents and completion of required procedures customary for such a transaction.

The deregistration and delisting of Fibria and the Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs, respectively, will not affect holders of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs. At the time of deregistration and delisting following the completion of the Merger, former holders of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs will have received Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs, respectively, and Suzano will be the sole holder of Fibria Shares. Suzano will be registered under the Exchange Act; it will file Annual Reports on Form 20-F and make submissions on Form 6-K. In addition, Suzano ADSs will be listed on the NYSE, Suzano Shares will be listed on the B3 and Suzano will be registered with the CVM. Therefore, holders of Fibria Shares will hold shares in a company that is registered following the Merger and will not be affected by the deregistration of Fibria, in which they will no longer hold shares.

Q: Are there consequences to Fibria or Suzano of withdrawing from the Merger?

A: If Suzano withdraws from the Merger, Suzano must pay R$ 750 million (the “ Termination Fee ”) to Fibria, unless Suzano’s withdrawal is due to (i) refusal by the relevant Brazilian regulatory agencies or judicial bodies (other than CADE or ANTAQ) to permit the Merger to proceed, (ii) a material breach by the Fibria Controlling Shareholders or Fibria of the Voting Agreement or the Merger Agreement, or (iii) the occurrence of a Material Adverse Effect as defined in the Voting Agreement.

Table of Contents

Q: What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger?

A: We expect that the Merger will be a taxable transaction to U.S. holders (as defined in the section entitled “Material Tax Considerations—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, a U.S. holder generally should be subject to tax on gain realized on the receipt of cash and Suzano Securities in the Merger, including any amount received in respect of fractions of Fibria Securities. The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger are complex. You should read the section entitled “Material Tax Considerations—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” for more information on the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger, and you should consult your own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the Merger in your particular circumstances.

Q: What are the Brazilian income tax consequences of the Merger?

A: Brazilian Law No. 10,833/03 provides that gains on the disposition of assets located in Brazil by a Non-Brazilian Holder (as defined in the section entitled “Material Tax Considerations—Material Brazilian Tax Considerations”), whether distributed to other non-residents or to Brazilian residents, are subject to Brazilian taxation. Fibria Shares are expected to be treated as assets located in Brazil for purposes of the law, and, as a result, gains on the disposition of Fibria Shares as a result of the Merger are expected to be subject to Brazilian income tax at progressive rates set forth in Law No 13,259/16 ranging from 15% to 22.5% (15% for the part of the gain that does not exceed R$ 5.0 million, 17.5% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 5.0 million but does not exceed R$ 10.0 million, 20% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 10.0 million but does not exceed R$ 30.0 million and 22.5% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 30.0 million), or at a flat rate of 25% if the Non-Brazilian Holder is a resident of or domiciled in a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction (as defined in the section entitled “Material Tax Considerations—Material Brazilian Tax Considerations”).

There is no clear rule regarding how a disposition of ADSs as a result of the Merger will be treated under Brazilian tax law, including under Brazilian Law No. 10,833/03. Although arguments exist to support the view that ADSs should not fall within the definition of assets located in Brazil for the purposes of Law No. 10,833, in which case the disposition of Fibria ADSs would not be subject to Brazilian taxation, considering the general and unclear scope thereof and the lack of any definitive judicial court ruling in respect thereof, we are unable to provide any assurances that courts will agree that Fibria ADSs are not assets located in Brazil for purposes of Law No. 10,833. If ADSs are considered assets located in Brazil, gains on disposition of Fibria ADSs by a Non-Brazilian Holder to a Brazilian resident or even to a non-resident may be subject to income tax in Brazil according to the tax rules applicable to common shares, as explained above.

Q: What will be the accounting treatment of the Merger?

A: In accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“ IFRS ”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“ IASB ”), Suzano will account for the Merger as a business combination applying the acquisition method of accounting with Suzano as the acquiror.

A: If the Merger is consummated, under the BNDESPAR Shareholders’ Agreement (as defined herein), BNDESPAR will be able to nominate one member of the Suzano Board of Directors, in addition to certain other governance rights. These rights will apply for so long as BNDESPAR holds Suzano Shares representing at least 10% of Suzano’s capital stock. As of the date hereof, BNDESPAR is expected to hold Suzano Shares representing approximately 11.1% of Suzano’s capital stock following completion of the Merger. For more information, see the section entitled “The Transaction Documents—BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement”.

Q: Has the Fibria Board of Directors or the Suzano Board of Directors taken any position relating to the Merger?

A: The Merger Agreement was approved by both the Fibria Board of Directors and the Suzano Board of Directors, pursuant to Brazilian law and the provisions of Fibria’s and Suzano’s bylaws, respectively, on July 26, 2018. Each of the Fibria Board of Directors and the Suzano Board of Directors has approved the submission of the Merger Proposal to the Fibria and Suzano shareholders, respectively. The Fibria Board of Directors has not made any recommendation for or against such approval by Fibria’s shareholders, and, as the Fibria Board of Directors is not required to make a recommendation to shareholders under Brazilian law, it will not make any such recommendation in advance of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting.

Q: What happens if I transfer or sell my Fibria Shares or my Fibria ADSs before the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting or before completion of the Merger?

A: You must hold Fibria Shares immediately prior to the extraordinary general shareholders meeting in order to be entitled to vote at the meeting. If you hold Fibria ADSs, you will be subject to a record date established by the Fibria Depositary in accordance with the Fibria Deposit Agreement, which will be earlier than the date of the extraordinary general shareholders meeting. If you transfer or sell your Fibria Shares or Fibria ADSs after the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting but prior to the completion of the Merger, you will have transferred the right to receive the Merger Consideration in the Merger to such transferee and you will lose your right to receive the Merger Consideration. In order to receive the Merger Consideration, you must hold your Fibria Shares or Fibria ADSs through the record date selected by Suzano in accordance with the Merger Agreement. If you hold Fibria ADSs, you may need to comply with additional procedures and be subject to different record dates established by the Fibria Depositary in accordance with the Fibria Deposit Agreement.

Q: What if I do not vote?

A: If you are a holder of Fibria Shares and you do not vote, and if you do not act to exercise your withdrawal rights as a shareholder of Fibria within 30 days of the publication by Fibria of the minutes of the extraordinary general shareholders meeting at which the Merger is approved, you will automatically receive the Merger Consideration applicable to the number of Fibria Shares or Fibria ADSs, as applicable, that you own, provided that you hold such Fibria Shares or Fibria ADSs through the record date selected by Suzano in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs and you do not give timely voting instructions in respect of your Fibria ADSs to the Fibria Depositary, the Fibria Depositary will deem that you have instructed the Fibria

Table of Contents

Depositary to cause the shares underlying such Fibria ADSs to be voted in favor of the Merger, subject to the conditions of the Fibria Deposit Agreement. See “The Fibria Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting—Manner of Voting—Holders of Fibria ADSs”.

Q: Could the Merger be unwound?

A: The Merger itself will not be unwound once all conditions precedent have been satisfied and closing has occurred. However, in the event that the Fibria Board of Directors believes that the total value of the withdrawal rights exercised by holders of Fibria Shares may put at risk the financial stability of Fibria, the Fibria Board of Directors may reconsider the Merger within ten days of the end of the withdrawal rights exercise period. If the Fibria Board of Directors elects to reconsider the Merger, the Merger will not be consummated and the payment relating to the exercise of withdrawal rights will not become due.

Q: What if I own Suzano Shares in addition to Fibria Shares?

A: Please note that this document is not a proxy or solicitation of votes for the Suzano extraordinary general shareholders meeting that will be held in connection with the Merger. If you are a holder of Suzano Shares in addition to Fibria Shares, you will receive information from Suzano separately regarding the Suzano extraordinary general shareholders meeting, including details on what matters will be voted on and instructions on how to vote at the Suzano extraordinary general shareholders meeting.

The Fibria Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting

Record Date; Shares Entitled to Vote

All holders of Fibria Shares as of the date of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting are entitled to vote on the Merger Proposal at such extraordinary general shareholders meeting. All holders of Fibria ADSs outstanding as of the record date established by the Fibria Depositary in accordance with the Fibria Deposit Agreement (the “ ADS Record Date ”) are entitled to give voting instructions in accordance with the voting procedures of the Fibria Deposit Agreement. Each Fibria Share and each Fibria ADSs outstanding as of the date of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting or the ADS Record Date, respectively, is entitled to one vote on each proposal presented for consideration at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. As of April 30, 2018, there were 553,201,072 Fibria Shares (including Fibria Shares held by the Fibria Depositary) issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting.

If you are a holder of Fibria Shares, you are entitled to attend and vote at the meeting. If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs, you are not entitled to attend the meeting, but you may communicate your voting instructions to the

11

Table of Contents

Fibria Depositary. As a holder of Fibria ADSs, in order for the Fibria Shares underlying your Fibria ADSs to be voted in accordance with your voting instructions, you must give timely instructions to the Fibria Depositary in accordance with the Fibria Deposit Agreement and any notices or information distributed by the Fibria Depositary.

If you are a holder of Fibria Shares, you may be required under the Brazilian Corporation Law to show documents proving your identity and ownership of Fibria Shares to gain admittance to the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. If you grant a proxy to someone to act for you at the meeting, your proxy will be required to show original or certified copies of the documents that grant him or her powers of representation. The proxy must be deposited at or mailed to the head office of Fibria no later than September 10, which is 3 business days before the meeting. The failure to comply with this requirement will not prevent the proxy from attending the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting so long as he or she presents the originals of the documents evidencing his or her powers.

Quorum

In order to validly hold an extraordinary general shareholders meeting of Fibria, in general, the holders of at least 25% of Fibria’s issued and outstanding voting capital must be present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting following first call to constitute a quorum. If that quorum is not reached on first call, any percentage of holders must be present or represented at the meeting following second call. You must be present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting in order to be considered part of the quorum at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. Because there were 553,201,072 Fibria Shares outstanding and entitled to vote as of April 30, 2018, at least 138,300,268 Fibria Shares would have to be present in person or represented by proxy at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting for a quorum to be formed following first call, and any amount of holders of the Fibria Shares would have to be present following second call.

Abstentions from voting by shareholders attending the meeting will be counted for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

Required Vote

In order to effect the Merger, holders of Fibria Shares must adopt the decision to merge Fibria and Suzano as contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The decision to merge requires the affirmative vote of at least 50% of Fibria’s issued and outstanding voting capital. The approval by the holders of Fibria Shares of the Merger Proposal is a condition to the completion of the Merger. If the Merger Proposal is not approved, the Merger will not be completed.

The Fibria Controlling Shareholders, which together hold approximately 58.5% of the issued and outstanding Fibria Shares as of the date hereof, have entered into the Voting Agreement (as defined herein) with the Suzano Controlling Shareholders, which hold approximately 50.8% of the issued and outstanding Suzano Shares as of the date hereof, with Suzano as intervening party. Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Fibria Controlling Shareholders and the Suzano Controlling Shareholders agreed to exercise their voting rights with respect to the Fibria Shares and Suzano Shares, respectively, in favor of the Merger at the Fibria Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting and the Suzano shareholders meeting, respectively. Assuming quorum requirements are met and the meetings are validly held in accordance with Brazilian law, upon the exercise by the Fibria Controlling Shareholders and the Suzano Controlling Shareholders of their voting rights in compliance with the terms of the Voting Agreement, we expect that the shareholders of Fibria and Suzano, respectively, will vote to approve the Merger at their respective meetings. For more information on the Voting Agreement, see the section entitled “The Transaction Documents—Voting Agreement”.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following information to understand the risks associated with the Merger and an investment in Suzano’s securities, which you will receive pursuant to the Merger, before deciding whether to vote in favor of the Merger Proposal. You should also consider the other information in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including the Merger Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. See “Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference” and “Where You Can Find More Information”.

Risks Relating to the Merger

The completion of the Merger is subject to a number of important conditions, and the Merger Agreement may be terminated before the completion of the Merger in accordance with its terms. As a result, there is no assurance that the Merger will be completed.

The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver, as applicable, of a number of important conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the approval of the Merger by the shareholders of Fibria and Suzano, the approval of the Merger by antitrust authorities in several jurisdictions, including Brazil, the United States, Europe and China, the approval of the Merger by other Brazilian regulatory agencies, and several other customary closing conditions. On May 31, 2018, the United States antitrust authorities issued an early termination notice confirming that the transaction was cleared without restrictions in the United States of America. However, the Merger remains subject to approval by antitrust authorities in other jurisdictions. If these conditions are not satisfied or, if applicable, waived by the date that is eighteen months from March 15, 2018 (i.e., September 15, 2019), the Merger Agreement may be terminated by either party and you will not receive the Merger Consideration. For more information, see “The Transaction Documents—Merger Agreement—Conditions Precedent to the Completion of the Merger”.

Antitrust authorities could impose costly or restrictive conditions on the approval of the Merger.

The Merger is subject to the approval of antitrust authorities in several jurisdictions, including the CADE in Brazil, the FTC and/or the DOJ, as applicable, in the United States of America, the European Commission in the European Union and MOFCOM in the People’s Republic of China, among others. Each of these antitrust authorities will determine whether the transaction negatively impacts competitive conditions in the markets in which we compete or adversely affects consumers in these markets.

Any decision by one or more of these antitrust authorities to not approve the Merger or to impose conditions or performance commitments on us as part of the approval process for the Merger could materially and adversely affect our business, negatively affect our financial performance and the trading price of the Suzano ADSs and prevent us from achieving the anticipated benefits of the Merger.

The expected benefits from operating as a combined enterprise with Fibria may not be achieved.

Although since the signing of the Voting Agreement on March 15, 2018, several market analysts have made public statements with respect to the expected benefits of the combined operations of Suzano and Fibria, the integration of two large companies presents significant challenges. No assurance can be given that Suzano and Fibria will be able to integrate their respective operations without encountering difficulties, which may include, among other things, the loss of key employees, diversion of management attention, the disruption of our respective ongoing businesses or possible inconsistencies in standards, procedures and policies. There can also be no assurance as to the extent to which the synergies anticipated and expected by the market from the Merger, or as to the timing for their realization, or as to the expenses that will be incurred in connection with realizing synergic benefits from the Merger. In particular, it may be difficult for us to realize anticipated cost savings from the combination of the companies’ production facilities. It may also be difficult for us to realize anticipated synergic benefits from the joint acquisition of raw materials, sharing of improved production techniques and integration of administrative departments.

Table of Contents

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information included in this prospectus may not be representative of our results after the Merger.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information (as defined herein) included elsewhere in this prospectus has been presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that actually would have occurred had the transactions been consummated as of the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of the future operating results or financial position of Suzano after the assumed consummation of the transactions. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information reflects adjustments, which are based upon preliminary estimates, to allocate the purchase price to Fibria’s assets and liabilities. The purchase price allocation reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Financial Information included elsewhere in this prospectus is preliminary, and the final allocation of the purchase price will be based upon the final fair value calculations of the assets and liabilities of Fibria as of the date of the completion of the Merger.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information does not reflect future events that may occur, including the costs related to a potential integration and any future nonrecurring charges resulting from the Merger, and does not consider potential impacts of current market conditions on revenues or expenses efficiencies. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information is based in part on certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Our assumptions may not prove to be accurate over time.

Third parties may terminate or alter existing contracts or relationships with Fibria or Suzano as a result of the completion of the Merger.

Each of Suzano and Fibria has contracts with customers, suppliers, vendors, distributors, landlords, lenders, licensors, joint venture partners and other business partners, and these contracts may require Suzano or Fibria, as applicable, to obtain consent from these other parties in connection with the Merger. If these consents cannot be obtained, the counterparties to these contracts may seek to terminate or otherwise materially adversely alter the terms of such contracts with either or both parties following the Merger, which in turn may result in Suzano or Fibria suffering a loss of potential future revenue, incurring contractual liabilities or losing rights that are material to their respective businesses. Any such disruptions could limit Suzano’s ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger. The adverse effect of such disruptions could also be exacerbated by a delay in the completion of the Merger or the termination of the Merger Agreement.

You are being offered a fixed number of Suzano common shares and ADSs, which involves the risk of market fluctuations.

You will receive a fixed number of Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs in the Merger, rather than a number of Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs with a fixed market value. Consequently, the market value of Suzano Shares and Suzanos ADSs, and of the Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs at the time of the completion of the Merger, may fluctuate significantly from the date of this prospectus, and the exchange ratio that has been approved for this Merger might not be reflective of future market price ratios of Suzano Securities relative to Fibria Securities. In addition, the market price of Suzano Shares and Fibria Shares may be adversely affected by arbitrage activities occurring prior to the completion of the Merger. These sales, or the prospects of such sales in the future, could adversely affect the market price for, and the ability to sell in the market, Fibria Shares before the Merger is completed and Suzano Shares before and after the Merger is completed.

Holders will receive a fixed number of Suzano common shares, which are reported in reais, and a fixed amount of cash consideration denominated in reais, which involves the risk of currency fluctuations.

The consideration that is payable per Fibria Share or Fibria ADS is a fixed amount of Brazilian reais and a fixed number of Suzano Shares or Suzano ADSs, respectively. In addition, the price of the Fibria Shares and the

23

Table of Contents

Suzano Shares on the B3 is reported in Brazilian reais . As the exchange rate of the real and the U.S. dollar fluctuates, the implied value of the Merger Consideration will fluctuate too. As a result, the implied value of the Merger Consideration that you will receive upon the completion of the Merger could be greater than, less than or the same as the implied value of the Merger Consideration in U.S. dollars on the date of this prospectus or at the time of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. Based on the closing price per Suzano Share on August 10, 2018, the latest practicable trading day before the date of this prospectus, the value of the Merger Consideration for each Fibria Share in reais was approximately R$ 74.19. There can be no assurance that this value will not be greater than, less than or the same as the implied value of the Merger Consideration that is distributed to holders of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs upon the completion of the Merger.

Your ownership percentage in Suzano will be less than the ownership percentage you currently hold in Fibria.

Your ownership percentage in Suzano Shares following the Merger will be less than your existing ownership percentage in Fibria as a result of dilution attributable to the relative equity values of the companies involved in the Merger and the fact that a significant portion of the Merger Consideration is being paid in cash. Assuming that none of the holders of the Fibria Shares exercises withdrawal rights, after the Merger (1) the former shareholders of Fibria will hold as a group approximately 18.91 % of the outstanding capital stock of Suzano and (2) the current shareholders of Suzano will hold as a group 81.09% of the outstanding capital stock of Suzano. The Suzano Controlling Shareholders, which are Suzano Holding S.A. and the Feffer family, will own approximately 41.65 % of the Suzano Shares after the Merger.

The Merger may not result in increased share liquidity for Suzano’s shareholders, including former Fibria shareholders, following the Merger.

Suzano is undertaking the Merger because it believes that the Merger will provide Suzano and Fibria, and their respective shareholders, with a number of advantages, including providing shareholders of Suzano and Fibria with securities that Suzano expects will enjoy greater market liquidity than the securities these shareholders currently hold. However, the Merger may not accomplish these objectives. Suzano cannot predict whether a liquid market for the newly issued and existing Suzano Securities will be maintained. If the Merger does not result in increased liquidity for the securities held by shareholders of Suzano and Fibria, you may experience a decrease in your ability to sell your Suzano Shares or Suzano ADSs compared to your ability to sell the Fibria Shares or Fibria ADSs you currently hold.

The capital gain arising from a disposition of Suzano Shares registered as a direct foreign investment in Brazil under Law No. 4,131/62 could be calculated based on the historical amount in Brazilian currency of the investment, rather than the amount in foreign currency registered with the Central Bank of Brazil.

There is uncertainty concerning the currency to be used for the purposes of calculating the cost of acquisition of shares registered with the Central Bank of Brazil as a direct investment under Law No. 4,131/62. Even though a recent precedent of a Brazilian administrative court supports the view that capital gains should be based on the positive difference between the cost of acquisition of the shares in the applicable foreign currency and the value of disposition of those shares in the same foreign currency, tax authorities are not bound by such precedents.

We will be more leveraged than we currently are and a material portion of our cash flow will have to be used to service our obligations.

As of December 31, 2017, Fibria had R$ 19.3 billion of consolidated total debt. As of December 31, 2017, Suzano had R$ 12.2 billion of consolidated total debt. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information”. After giving effect to the financing arrangements entered into by Suzano in connection with the Merger, assuming completion of the Merger and the full disbursement of such financing commitments,

24

Table of Contents

we will have approximately R$ 64.0 billion of consolidated total debt (composed of current and non-current loans and financing and debentures) on a pro forma basis as of the completion of the Merger. As a result, following the completion of the Merger, holders of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs will hold securities in a company that is more leveraged than the company in which they currently hold their securities.

We are subject to the risks normally associated with significant amounts of debt, which could have important consequences to you. Our indebtedness could, among other things: (i) require us to use a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to pay our obligations, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, operations, capital expenditures, dividend payments, strategic acquisitions, expansion of our operations and other business activities; (ii) increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; (iii) limit, along with financial and other restrictive covenants in our debt instruments, our ability to borrow additional funds or dispose of assets; and (iv) place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt.

We may also need to refinance all or a portion of our debt on or before maturity, and we may not be able to do this on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Certain of Fibria’s outstanding indebtedness requires lender consents in order to complete the Merger. If such consents are not obtained, this indebtedness could be accelerated, and we may not be able to refinance such indebtedness on favorable terms or at all following the Merger.

The terms of certain of Fibria’s indebtedness include covenants and/or events of default that will be breached or triggered (as applicable) upon a change of control of Fibria, unless we obtain prior creditor consent. In particular, a material portion of Fibria’s outstanding Agribusiness Credit Receivables ( Certificados de Recebíveis do Agronegócio , or “ CRAs ”) provide that the maturity of such CRAs automatically accelerates upon a change of control of Fibria, unless prior consent of the holders thereof is obtained prior to completion of such change of control event. Furthermore, most of Fibria’s debt instruments contain cross-acceleration provisions that would be triggered upon acceleration of any of Fibria’s material indebtedness, including the CRAs. In addition, the terms of certain of Suzano’s indebtedness contain cross-acceleration provisions that could be triggered by such acceleration upon or following the completion of the Merger.

If Fibria does not obtain the requisite consents from holders of such indebtedness to the transfer of control of Fibria to Suzano as a result of the completion of the Merger, or if Fibria does not obtain sufficient consent to the waiver of the applicable cross-acceleration provisions in such indebtedness, or if Fibria and/or Suzano are unable to refinance or prepay such indebtedness prior to the completion of the Merger, a significant portion of Fibria’s indebtedness could be accelerated by the holders of such debt upon completion of the Merger. The resulting acceleration of Fibria’s indebtedness could adversely affect Suzano’s and Fibria’s financial condition.

Risks Relating to Us and to the Pulp and Paper Industry

Our products’ prices are greatly affected by international market prices over which we have little control.

Pulp markets are typically cyclical, and our pulp prices follow international market prices, which are determined by supply and demand, global pulp production capacity and global economic conditions. Such prices can also be affected by exchange rate fluctuations between the currencies of main producing and consuming countries, movement of inventories, diverging price expectations, business strategies adopted by other producers and availability of substitutes for our products. All of these factors are beyond our control and may have a significant impact on the demand for pulp and, consequently, on our operational margins, profitability and return on invested capital (ROIC).

25

Table of Contents

Additionally, paper prices are determined by supply and demand conditions in the markets in which they are sold. Therefore, the price of paper sold by us fluctuates due to various factors, including the fluctuation in pulp prices and the specific characteristics of the markets in which we operate.

Price fluctuations occur not only from year to year, but also within a given year as a result of global and regional economic conditions, capacity constraints, mill openings and closures, market seasonality and currency of the producing countries, among other factors.

We cannot assure that pulp and paper market prices and demand for our products will remain favorable to us without any adverse fluctuations. In case of oscillations, our ability to operate our plants in an economically viable manner may be negatively affected.

Drought in some regions of Brazil, resulting in water scarcity and related rationing, may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Some regions might have drought conditions during some seasons of the year, which could result in acute shortages of water and/or implementation of rationing to restrict usage. Although some of our units are located in the affected areas, this would not affect all of our operations simultaneously. Suzano units have processes in place for the efficient use of water. In order to maintain and improve our units’ efficiency in water usage, our operations teams periodically review such processes. We also have a contingency plan in place for the units that could possibly be affected by water shortages. Nevertheless, we cannot assure that very severe droughts or governmental measures to address drought conditions will not have an impact on our units’ operations, with a resulting adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We face significant operational risks that can result in the partial shutdown of our operations, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We face operational risks that may result in partial or temporary suspension of our operations and in loss of production. Such outages may be caused by factors associated with equipment failure, accidents, fires, strikes, weather, exposure to natural disasters and chemical product spills, among other environmental hazards. The occurrence of these events may, among other impacts, result in serious damage to our property, a decrease in production or an increase in production costs, any of which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

During the normal course of our business, we depend on the continuous availability of logistics and transportation networks, including roads, railways, warehouses and ports, among others. Such operations may be disrupted by factors beyond our control, such as social movements, natural disasters and labor strikes. For example, the general strike of truckdrivers in May 2018 throughout Brazil halted the transportation of goods and products around the country for several days, which resulted in shortages of fuel and other products and caused a temporary suspension of production in most industries. Due to such general strike of truckdrivers, our production operations were suspended for several days, and we estimate that this suspension resulted in a loss of production volume of approximately 80,000 tons of market pulp and approximately 25,000 tons of paper. The strike formally ended following concessions from the federal government on the price of diesel fuel and other concessions, which may have an adverse effect on our costs of logistics and distribution of products. On May 25, 2018, Fibria also announced that such truckers strike also caused impacts on its production and transportation of products. Starting June 1, 2018, we were able to gradually resume production operations at our plants, which, as of the date of the prospectus, were operating at normal capacity. We continue to monitor the potential mid- to long-term effects of the strike, including the impact that the concessions granted by the Brazilian federal government may have on our costs of logistics and distribution of products.

Any interruption in the supply of inputs for the operation of our industrial and forestry units or in the delivery of our finished products to clients could cause a material adverse impact on our results of operations and

revenues. We have entered into contracts with third parties to provide transportation and logistics services. The early termination of these contracts or our inability to renew them or negotiate new contracts with other service providers with similar conditions could adversely affect our financial and operating condition.

Adverse weather patterns may significantly affect the flow of rivers used in manufacturing operations and may cause adverse impacts on our industrial units.

Although our units are already very efficient with regard to water use, we continue to improve consumption efficiency in addition to having a contingency plan for possible shortages in the areas where our operations are located. However, we cannot guarantee that very severe droughts or governmental measures to deal with drought conditions will not have adverse effects on our forestry, logistical and industrial activities, consequently affecting our business and results of operations.

Our insurance coverage may be insufficient to cover our losses, especially in case of damage to our planted forests.

Our insurance coverage may be insufficient to cover losses to our mills caused by general third-party liability for accidents, operational risks and international and domestic transportation if we suffer any catastrophic claim or if there is a particular clause excluding the coverage. In addition, we do not maintain insurance coverage against fire, thefts, pests, and other risks to our planted forests. The incurrence of losses or other liabilities that are not covered by insurance, due to the limited extent of the insurance coverage, losses that exceed the limits of our insurance coverage or any other reason that prevents reimbursement or indemnification, could result in significant and unexpected additional costs. Moreover, the terms and conditions for the renewal of our insurance policies may change in the future depending upon market circumstances and the type and amount of risks insured. See “Information About Suzano—Business—Insurance”.

We receive certain tax benefits in Brazil that may be suspended, cancelled or not renewed, any of which may adversely affect our financial condition and net cash flow generation. Any changes in the tax code may also adversely affect us.

We receive certain tax benefits by virtue of our production facilities and investment projects in underdeveloped regions in Brazil, which are covered by the Superintendence for Development of the Northeast ( Superintendência do Desenvolvimento do Nordeste , or “ SUDENE ”) and the Brazilian Internal Revenue ( Receita Federal do Brasil , or “ RFB ”). See “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects —Tax Incentives and Tax Credits”.

We also benefit from tax incentives based on state laws, such as PROMARANHAO in the State of Maranhão and Desenvolve in the State of Bahia, published through Ordinance-GABIN nº 435/18 and Decree nº 18.270/18, respectively. The company has complied with the legal requirements in order to attend the formalities of the Convention nº 190/2017 by the National Board of Financial Policy ( Conselho Nacional de Política Fazendária , or “ CONFAZ ”) to validate the referred tax incentives and now awaits for the confirmation from the Tax Authorities. We cannot assure you that the tax incentives we currently benefit from will be maintained or renewed, particularly, but not exclusively, in light of deteriorating macroeconomic conditions that may lead to changes in current material incentives, such as the exemption of export revenues from social security contributions, the Regime Especial de Aquisição de Bens de Capital para Empresas Exportadoras, which is a special regime for the acquisition of capital goods by exporting companies, and Preponderante Exportador , among others. If such tax benefits are not effectively renewed, this could have a material adverse effect on our generation of net cash flow. In the event of constitutional challenges or if we fail to comply with specific obligations to which we are subject in connection with the tax benefits described above, such benefits may be suspended or cancelled, and we may be required to pay the taxes due in the last five years in full, plus penalties and interest, which may adversely affect us.

Table of Contents

With respect to our exports, we are a beneficiary of a special regime for the reintegration of tax values for exporting companies, called Reintegra ( Regime Especial de Reintegração de Valores Tributários para as Empresas Exportadoras ), which is a program created by the Brazilian federal government to encourage the export of manufactured products.

The Brazilian federal government, as well as the state and municipal governments, frequently implement changes to the tax regimes, such as changes in tax rates and the calculation basis of taxes, that may affect us or our customers. Some of these changes may result in the increase of tax charges and in the change, reduction or cancellation of tax benefits, adversely affecting our business.

Our short- and long-term indebtedness may require us to use a significant portion of our cash flow for debt service.

At the end of 2017, our consolidated gross debt was R$ 12.2 billion, and, under certain conditions, our indebtedness profile may require us to use a significant portion of our available cash flow from operations to pay principal and interest on such indebtedness, making that cash flow unavailable for dividend payments or other purposes. In addition, we entered into financing commitments with a group of banks in order to secure an amount of up to US$ 9.2 billion in additional financing for purposes of the cash consideration to be paid in the Merger and for other corporate purposes. On July 31, 2018, such commitments were reduced to an amount of up to US$ 6.7 billion. In addition, Suzano issued debentures totaling R$ 4.7 billion on June 29, 2018. A default under our financial agreements that is not waived by the relevant creditors may result in an acceleration of the maturity of the outstanding balance of such debt, and may also accelerate the maturity of other debt that benefits from cross-default or cross-acceleration provisions. For more information, see “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Indebtedness”. If such events were to occur, our financial condition and share price could be adversely affected.

If we are not able to manage the potential problems and risks related to acquisitions and strategic partnerships, our business and growth prospects could be adversely affected.

We have completed major acquisitions and formed strategic alliances, and, as part of our business strategy, we may acquire other assets or businesses or enter into strategic partnerships in Brazil or other countries, such as the Merger. Unexpected events or changes in market conditions, as well as the failure to successfully integrate new businesses or manage strategic alliances, could adversely affect our commercial and financial performance or prevent us from realizing expected gains. If we attempt to engage in future acquisitions, we would be subject to certain risks, including that we could fail to select the best partners or fail to effectively plan and manage any strategic alliance.

Additionally, any new acquisition or strategic alliance could increase our costs, impacting our financial metrics. Our management’s attention could be diverted from other business concerns and we could lose key employees of the acquired company.

Some of our competitors may be better positioned to acquire pulp and paper companies.

Other companies operating in the same segments may compete with us for acquisition and alliance opportunities. Strategic acquisitions or alliances by our competitors could affect our ability to enter into or consummate acquisitions and alliances that are necessary to expand our business, such as the Merger. Further, we may face elevated costs associated with restructuring and/or financing in relation to acquisitions or strategic partnerships in comparison to our competitor companies. Companies that are better positioned to enter into acquisitions or alliances may benefit from preferable production costs, which may affect our competitiveness. Moreover, any significant acquisition may be subject to regulatory approval.

We could be harmed by a failure or interruption of our information technology systems or automated machinery.

Our operations are heavily reliant on information technology systems to efficiently manage production process. Therefore, disruptions to these systems, caused by obsolescence, technical failures or intentional acts,

28

Table of Contents

may impact or even paralyze our business and negatively impact our operations. In addition, any failure of our systems related to confidential information, caused by external cyber-attacks or internal actions, including negligence and/or misconduct of our employees, can have a negative impact on our reputation against competitors and external agents (government, regulators, suppliers and others).

Our information technology systems may be vulnerable to external actions such as natural disasters, viruses, cyber-attacks, and other security breaches. Any damage or interruption may cause a negative adverse effect on the results of the Company’s business, including fines, obligations to clients or legal litigation.

We may be subject to breaches of automation systems causing partial and/or temporary shutdowns of operations and/or improper access to strategic information, in addition to change or loss of relevant data. Costs to address the vulnerability and/or problems mentioned may be significant and may temporarily affect our operations.

We maintain technical safety controls and monitoring systems to deal with these threats. While these measures are designed to prevent, detect, and respond to unauthorized activities in our systems, certain types of attacks may have a material adverse effect on our business and reputation.

In addition, any changes to existing safety regulations may impose additional obligations on us and result in an increase in our expenses with respect to safety equipment and procedures. For instance, changes imposing a reduced workday for safety reasons may result in reduced productivity, forcing us to hire additional staff. Similarly, provisions requiring us to install or buy additional safety equipment could increase our labor-related costs and adversely affect our operating costs and results.

A reduction in our credit ratings may increase our borrowing costs and/or restrict the availability of new capital or financings.

The ratings address the likelihood, according to the respective evaluation methodology of each rating agency, of the payment of our debt and obligations at their maturity. The ratings also address the timely payment of interest and other costs on each interest payment date. The ratings are not a recommendation to purchase, hold or sell any security issued by us, and the ratings do not necessary affect the market price or suitability of any security issued by us for any particular investor. The assigned ratings to us may be raised, lowered or held constant depending, among other factors, on the rating agencies’ respective assessment of our financial strength. We cannot assure you that our rating will remain for any given period of time or that the rating will not be lowered or withdrawn.

Credit ratings may impact our financial condition generally, including the interest rates we pay on funds that we borrow and the market’s perception of our financial strength, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our ability to make payments.

If our credit ratings were reduced and the market were to perceive any such reduction as a deterioration of our financial strength, our cost of borrowing would likely increase and our net income could decrease, all of which could have a material adverse effect on us.

In addition, our credit rating is sensitive to any change in Brazilian sovereign credit ratings. The credit ratings of the Brazilian sovereign were downgraded in 2015 and 2016, and are no longer investment grade according to the methodologies of the major global rating agencies. Any further lowering of Brazilian sovereign credit ratings may have additional adverse consequences on our ability to obtain financing or our cost of financing and, consequently, on our results of operations and financial condition.

Unfavorable outcomes in litigation may negatively affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

In the ordinary course of our business dealings, we and our officers are party to numerous tax, civil (including environmental) and labor disputes involving, among other penalties, significant monetary claims. An unfavorable outcome against us may result in our being required to pay substantial amounts of money, which could materially adversely affect our reputation, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. For more information on tax, civil (including environmental), labor and other proceedings, see “Information About Suzano—Business—Legal and Administrative Proceedings”.

We depend on third-party suppliers for between 20% to 30% of our wood requirements and may be adversely affected by shortages of wood or increases in its price.

Medium- and long-term supply agreements with wood suppliers may vary between 1 to 2 forest cycles, each cycle lasting 6 to 8 years. Lease agreements or forest partnerships have an average term of 14 to 15 years.

Wood price conditions have a more significant effect on short-term contracts (spot), which are subject to cyclical and circumstantial variations of wood demand in the different regions where we operate. Short-term contracts comprise less than 20% of our wood requirements. Medium- and long-term contracts do not expose us to adverse price and market condition risks, since in those contracts the price of wood and adjusting indexes are determined in advance.

Our wood resources may not be sufficient to satisfy our production needs, in which case we may seek additional wood supply from third parties through agreements to purchase wood, either through purchases of standing forests or purchases of wood delivered to our factories.

Any interruption to our supply representing a significant reduction in available wood for processing may adversely affect our operational results and financial conditions.

Changes in the credit risk of customers and suppliers to whom we have made advances, sales through credit lines or loans may adversely affect us.

In the markets in which we operate, it is typical, and often a condition for competitive participation, for pulp and paper producers to make advances to suppliers or to make sales to customers on credit. When we make advances, sales on credit or loans to our suppliers or customers, we assume their credit risk. Therefore, changes in the macroeconomic environment or the market conditions under which our suppliers and our customers operate, in addition to problems related to the management of our suppliers and clients, may significantly affect their ability to make payments to us, directly impacting our assets and working capital.

These practices also expose us to the risk of a significant divergence between the rates under which we obtain financing from third parties and the rates that we grant to our customers and suppliers. We cannot assure you that we will always be able to match the terms under which we provide financing to our customers and suppliers with the terms of financing provided to us. Any increase in our customers’ and suppliers’ credit risk or divergence between their and our capital costs may materially adversely affect our assets, shareholders’ equity and results.

We depend on few suppliers for certain raw materials, such as fuel oil, caustic soda, bleached chemo thermo mechanical pulp (BTCMP), natural gas and paper and pulp industrial capital goods, its services and maintenance.

We have few sources for certain raw materials that are essential for the production of pulp and paper, including fuel oil, caustic soda, BTMCP, natural gas and third party industry technology (maintenance). We enter

30

Table of Contents

into medium and long term supply agreements with such suppliers. Any significant reduction in the supply or increase in prices, on behalf of the relevant supplier, of any of these raw materials could adversely affect our products’ mix, margin or availability and, consequently, our results of operations.

Significant fluctuations in the value of the real against the value of the U.S. dollar may adversely affect our revenues, our indebtedness, and the markets for Brazilian securities.

Fluctuations in the value of the real against the U.S. dollar can affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our export revenues are directly affected by exchange rate variation. Depreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar will increase such revenues when denominated in reais , while appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar will decrease such export revenues. Our revenues in the domestic market are also affected by exchange rate fluctuation, to the extent that imported products quoted in U.S. dollars become more or less competitive in the domestic market depending on the exchange rate variation.

Furthermore, some of our costs and operating expenses are also affected by fluctuations in the value of the real against the U.S. dollar, including export insurance, freight costs and the cost of certain chemicals we use as raw materials. Depreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar will increase such costs, while appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar will reduce these costs.

Additionally, we may be adversely affected by depreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar, since a significant portion of our debt is expressed in U.S. dollars. Depreciation or appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar may increase or decrease, as applicable, our financial expenses arising from these debt and other obligations in U.S. dollars, as well as adversely affect our ability to comply with certain financial covenants under financing agreements, which require us to maintain specific financial ratios. On the other hand, a significant appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar may significantly affect our cost structure and negatively affect our competitiveness in export markets.

As a result of inflationary pressures in recent years, the Brazilian real has been periodically devalued in relation to the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies. The Brazilian federal government has in the past implemented various economic plans and utilized a number of exchange rate policies, including sudden devaluations, periodic mini-devaluations during which the frequency of adjustments has ranged from daily to monthly, floating exchange rate systems, exchange controls and dual exchange rate markets. From time to time, there have been significant fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Brazilian real , the U.S. dollar and other currencies. There can be no assurance that the real will not depreciate or be devalued again against the U.S. dollar or against any other foreign currency.

Devaluations of the real relative to the U.S. dollar could create additional inflationary pressures in Brazil, further lead to increases in interest rates, further limit our access to foreign financial markets and prompt the adoption of recessionary policies by the Brazilian federal government. Conversely, the appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar may lead to a further deterioration of Brazil’s current account and balance of payments and cause a decrease in Brazilian exports. Any of the foregoing developments may negatively affect the Brazilian economy as a whole, and, consequently, our results.

The Central Bank of Brazil has occasionally intervened in recent years to control unstable movements in the foreign exchange rate. We cannot predict whether the Central Bank of Brazil will continue to let the real float freely. Accordingly, it is not possible to predict what impact the Brazilian federal government’s exchange rate policies may have on us. We cannot assure that in the future the Brazilian federal government will not impose a currency band within which the real U.S. dollar- real exchange rate could fluctuate or set fixed exchange rates, nor can we predict what impact such an event might have on our business, financial position or operating results.

Fluctuations in interest rates could increase the cost of servicing our debt and negatively affect our overall financial performance.

Our financial results are affected by changes in interest rates, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“ LIBOR ”), the CDI and the Brazilian Long Term Interest Rate ( Taxa de Juros de Longo Prazo , or “ TJLP ”). LIBOR rates have significantly increased in recent years due to regulatory changes to U.S. money market funds, or MMFs. The three-month LIBOR rate was 1.6943% per annum (“ p.a. ”), 0.9979% p.a. and 0.6127% p.a. as of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015. The CDI rate has fluctuated significantly in the past in response to the expansion or contraction of the Brazilian economy, attempts to manage inflation, Brazilian government policies and other factors. After falling significantly during 2017, the CDI rate was 6.89% p.a. as of December 31, 2017, while it was 13.63% p.a. and 14.14% p.a. as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The TJLP rate was 6.75% p.a., 7.50% p.a. and 7.50% p.a. as of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

A significant increase in interest rates, particularly TJLP, CDI, LIBOR, or the inflation rate index for consumer goods ( Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo , or “ IPCA ”), could have a material adverse effect on our financial expenses since a significant part of our debt (BNDES loans, Agribusiness Credit Receivable Certificates - CRA and Export Prepayment Facilities) is linked to these rates. On the other hand, a significant reduction in the CDI rate could adversely impact our financial revenues derived from investment activities, since a material portion of our cash is invested in Brazilian money market instruments that are linked to the CDI rate.

On July 27, 2017, the head of the Financial Conduct Authority (the “ FCA ”) announced the FCA’s intention to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. Because the statement made by the head of the FCA was recent, there is no definitive information regarding the future utilization of LIBOR or of any particular replacement rate. As such, the potential effect of any such event on our financial expenses cannot yet be determined and, at this time, it is not possible to predict the effect of establishing any alternative reference rates or any other reforms to LIBOR that may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. Uncertainty as to the nature of such potential changes, the impact of using alternative reference rates or the content of other reforms may adversely affect our financial expenses or have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.

Investments by our competitors to enhance pulp production capacity in the following years may adversely affect our results.

At moments of prospective future overspending, it is common for competitors to announce new capacity projects. If a significant part of those projects are confirmed and such investments are made, there may be an imbalance between supply and demand that may cause a reduction in pulp prices. Investments in new capacity by third parties may have a significant impact on pulp prices and, consequently, on our operational margins, profitability and ROIC. Further, due to an increased pulp supply in the market, we may be forced to adjust, even if temporarily, our production volume, to adapt to a decreased product demand.

We face significant competition in some of our lines of business, which may adversely affect our market share in the pulp and paper industries and our profitability.

The pulp and paper market is extremely competitive. We face substantial competition in both domestic and international markets from a large number of companies, some of which have extensive access to financial resources and low capital costs. In the domestic market, we face competition from national products, produced by companies of Brazilian and international groups, and imported products. In the international market, we compete against companies with large production and distribution capacities, significant consumer base and great variety of products.

32

Table of Contents

Pulp imports do not presently represent serious competition for us in the domestic market due to the low logistical and production costs of local producers. However, the oversupply of coated paper in the world market, the antidumping measures adopted in other countries and the use of imported coated paper for alternative purposes, especially during periods of prolonged appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar, may increase competition in Brazil from producers of imported paper. Additionally, if the Brazilian federal government were to decrease import taxes, or in the event of sustained appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar, competition in Brazil from international producers may increase. The occurrence or continuation of any of the foregoing events could adversely affect us.

Additionally, the pulp and paper markets are served by numerous companies located in different countries. If we are unable to remain competitive against these producers in the future, our market share may be adversely affected. There is a continuous need for reduction in the production costs of pulp and paper so that we can follow the volatility of prices, with smaller impacts on our profitability.

Liquidity restriction periods may increase our costs, limit the terms or even preclude the funding in the market, which may adversely affect our operations.

Brazilian paper and pulp companies have made significant investments during the last few years in order to compete more efficiently and on a larger scale in the international market. This trend towards consolidation has enhanced the need for resources and diversification of financing sources among national and foreign financial institutions.

In this context, we depend on third-party capital to conduct our business, by means of financing transactions to support our investments and working capital. In liquidity restriction periods, such as the ones of 2008 and 2009 that occurred due to the international financial crisis, credit lines may become excessively short, expensive or even unavailable. Under these circumstances, there is a higher risk of not achieving success in financing and refinancing transactions, meaning that there is a higher possibility of failure in obtaining financing in the market in order to pay down existing indebtedness, as well as a higher risk of raising these funds at an elevated cost, which may adversely affect our results.

Social crisis in the relationship with communities and class entities may affect the regular use, cause damage, or deprive us of the use of or fair value compensation of our properties.

Activist groups in Brazil advocate for land reform and property redistribution by invading and occupying rural areas, which can interrupt our industrial activities and, consequently, negatively affect our production and operational results. In addition, our land may be subject to expropriation by the Brazilian federal government. Under Brazilian law, the federal government, upon payment of compensation, may expropriate land that is not in compliance with mandated local “social functions,” including rational and adequate exploitation of land, adequate use of available natural resources, preservation of the environment and compliance with labor laws, among others. If the Brazilian federal government expropriates part of our properties, our results of operations may be adversely affected to the extent that the government’s compensation proves to be inadequate. Moreover, we may be forced to accept public debt bonds, which have limited liquidity, instead of cash as compensation for expropriated land.

Any deterioration of labor relations among our employees could adversely affect us.

We depend on intensive use of labor in our activities. Most of our employees are represented by unions, and their employment contracts are regulated by collective bargaining agreements. New collective bargaining agreements may have shorter terms than our previous agreements, and, if we are not able to negotiate collective bargaining agreements on acceptable terms to us, we may be subject to a significant increase in labor costs, deterioration of employee relations, slowdowns or work stoppages, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

33

Table of Contents

Additionally, changes in safety and outsourcing regulations may result in an increase in our labor-related costs. We may be considered secondarily liable for any employment obligations relating to such employees or a direct employment relationship may be established by the labor courts with the outsourced employees and us, according to the current regulation in force.

The introduction of a stricter legal framework regarding the use of outsourced employees or third-party subcontractors, and/or the imposition of additional obligations on the contractor of outsourced services, may increase our labor-related costs and may adversely affect our business and operations.

In accordance with existing labor laws and regulations, we are required to provide and ensure the proper use of safety equipment for our employees and other individuals working on our worksites. If we fail to provide all necessary safety equipment and ensure the proper use of the safety equipment, or if we work with companies that are not sufficiently committed to ensuring the safety of their own employees, we may be held liable for any accidents that take place at our worksites. Any accidents at our worksites may expose us to the payment of indemnifications, fines and penalties. The number of accidents in our facilities have been decreasing, amounting to 98, 87 and 66 in 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

In addition, any changes to existing safety regulations may impose additional obligations on us and result in an increase in our expenses with respect to safety equipment and procedures. For instance, changes imposing a reduced workday for safety reasons may result in reduced productivity, forcing us to hire additional staff. Similarly, provisions requiring us to install or buy additional safety equipment could increase our labor-related costs and adversely affect our operating costs and results.

More stringent environmental regulation could increase our expenditures.

Our activities are subject to extensive environmental regulation, including in relation to gas emissions, liquid effluents and solid residues disposal, reforestation and odor control, and maintenance of a land reserve and permanent preservation areas. Furthermore, our activities, both industrial and forestry, require periodic renewal of environmental permits.

Environmental standards that are applicable to us are issued at the federal, state and municipal levels, and changes in the laws, rules, policies or procedures adopted in the enforcement of the current laws may adversely affect us. In Brazil, violations of environmental laws, regulations and authorizations could result in administrative, civil or criminal penalties for us, our management and our employees, including fines, imprisonment, interruption of our activities and dissolution of our corporate entity.

Governmental agencies or other competent authorities may provide new rules or additional regulations even stricter than the ones in force, or they may pursue a stricter interpretation of the existing laws and regulations, which could require us to invest additional resources in environmental compliance or to restrict our ability to operate as currently done. Additionally, noncompliance with or a violation of any such laws and regulations could result in the revocation of our licenses and suspension of our activities or in our responsibility for environmental remediation costs, which could be substantial. Moreover, failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations could restrict our ability to obtain financing from financial institutions.

In December 2015, several countries (including Brazil) signed the Paris Agreement, a new global environmental agreement adopting the Intended Nationally Determined Contributions, or “INDCs”, as the measures taken to reduce its emissions after 2020. The INDC that applies to Brazil provides for an increase in the share of sustainable biofuels and other sources of renewable energy in the Brazilian national energy mix, as well as zero deforestation, reforestation, forest restoration and enhancement of the native forest management. We may be materially affected by the regulation related to greenhouse gases and climate change, which causes an increase in capital expenditures and investments to comply with such laws, and indirectly, by changes in prices for transportation, energy and other inputs. In addition, the physical effects of climate change also may materially

34

Table of Contents

and adversely affect our operations, such as by changing air temperature and water levels, and subjecting us to unusual or different weather related risks. Both the regulations related to climate change and the changes in existing regulations, as well as the physical effects of climate change generally, could result in increased liabilities and capital expenditures, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Failure to obtain the necessary permits and licenses could adversely affect our operations.

We depend on the issuance of permits and licenses from various governmental agencies in order to undertake certain activities. In order to obtain licenses for certain activities that are expected to have a significant environmental impact, certain investments in conservation are required to offset such impact. Furthermore, we have licenses to operate our plants, which are usually valid for five years from the date of issuance and may be renewed for equal periods. The operational licenses require, among other things, that we periodically report our compliance with emissions standards set by environmental agencies.

Failure to obtain, renew or comply with our operating licenses as applicable may cause delays in our deployment of new activities, increased costs, monetary fines or even suspension of the affected activity.

Global economic conditions and events may adversely affect the demand for and the price of our products.

Demand for pulp and paper is directly related to the growth of the world economy and economic conditions. Currently, Europe, North America and China are the main consumer markets of the industry. Any slowing of economic growth in these regions could adversely affect the price and volume of our exports and thus impact our operating performance and our financial results until such excess volume of supply can be allocated to other markets.

Our exports are subject to special risks that may adversely affect our business.

We export to different regions of the world, which makes us subject to special political and regulatory risks, including currency controls in countries where we have payments receivable, possible formal or informal trade barriers and incentive policies and subsidies favoring local producers in many regions.

Thus, our future financial performance will depend on the economic, political and social conditions of our main export markets (Europe, Asia and North America). Thus, our future financial performance will depend on the economic, political and social conditions of our main export markets (Europe, Asia and North America). As a result, factors that are beyond our control include:

• imposition of barriers to trade or the granting of commercial incentives in favor of local producers;

• changes in economic policies and/or conditions of the countries to which we export, which may affect our export capacity and, consequently, our business and operating results;

• logistics costs, including disruptions in shipping or reduced availability of freight transportation;

• significant fluctuations in global demand for pulp products, which could impact our sales, operating income and cash flows;

• the deterioration of global economic conditions, which could impair the financial condition of some of our customers or foreign suppliers, thereby increasing bad debts or non-performance by our foreign suppliers;

• changes in revenues due to variations in foreign currency exchange rates;

• controls on currency exchange; and

• adverse consequences deriving from the need to comply with more stringent regulatory requirements in foreign countries, including environmental rules, regulations and certification requirements.

35

Table of Contents

More stringent trade barriers in key export markets may adversely affect us.

The competitiveness of Brazilian companies has led certain countries to establish trade barriers to limit the access of Brazilian companies to their markets or even to subsidize local producers. Some countries may impose quotas on Brazilian products, and delays in allocating these quotas or changes in laws or policies regarding these quotas can adversely affect our exports.

Any of the aforementioned restrictions may affect our export volume and, as a result, our sales from export markets and our financial condition. In the case of newly created trade barriers in our key export markets, it may be difficult for us to sell our products in other markets at favorable conditions, which may cause a material adverse effect on us.

Economic and market conditions in other countries, including in the United States and emerging market countries, may materially and adversely affect the Brazilian economy and, therefore, our financial condition.

The market for securities issued by Brazilian companies is influenced by economic and market conditions in Brazil, and, to varying degrees, market conditions in other countries, whether emerging market countries or not. Although economic conditions are different in each country, the reaction of investors to developments in one country may cause the domestic or international capital markets to fluctuate. Developments or conditions in other countries have at times significantly affected the availability of credit in the Brazilian economy and resulted in considerable outflows of funds and reductions in the amount of foreign currency invested in Brazil, as well as limited access to international capital markets, all of which may materially and adversely affect our ability to borrow funds at an acceptable interest rate or to raise equity capital when and if we should have such a need. We depend on third-party financing to carry out our activities, especially to finance our capital expenditures and working capital. In circumstances of limited liquidity, credit availability may be scarce, expensive or nonexistent, and we may face difficulties in our regular activities and in honoring our financial commitments.

We are highly dependent on our planted forest areas for the supply of wood, which is essential to our production processes, and any damage to our forest areas may adversely affect us.

Most of the wood used in our production processes is supplied by our own forestry operations, which include planted forest areas located in close proximity to our production facilities. The wood market in Brazil is very limited, as most pulp and paper producers utilize wood extracted from their own planted forests to meet their wood requirements. In addition, in acquiring land for our forests, we compete with cultivators of other crops, which could ultimately raise the purchase price of land or make it more difficult to hire third parties to cultivate the eucalyptus required to meet our production needs. Still, our planted forests are subject to natural threats, such as drought, fire, pests and diseases, which may reduce our supply of wood or increase the price of wood we acquire.

Our planted forest areas are also subject to other threats, considering their wide territorial coverage and proximity to a significant number of neighbors and local communities. A poorly managed relationship (reactive, rather than preventative) can intensify social occurrences, such as loss of possession due to social unrest or squatter invasion, theft of our timber, or arson. Therefore, any action that is not taken through the means of a respectful, harmonious and transparent relationship with the local community may result in real damage to our planting and transit areas and may significantly adversely affect our operating results.

Risks Relating to Brazil

Brazilian economic and political conditions and perceptions of these conditions in the international market have a direct impact on our business and our access to international capital and debt markets, and could adversely affect our business, financial position and operating results.

We conduct a substantial amount of our operations in Brazil, and we sell part of our products to customers in the domestic market. For the year ended December 31, 2017, 30.5% of our net revenues were derived from

36

Table of Contents

Brazil. Accordingly, our financial condition and results of operations are substantially dependent on economic conditions in Brazil. Brazil’s gross domestic product, or GDP, decreased in real terms by 3.8% in 2015 and 3.6% in 2016. In 2017, real Brazilian GDP grew by 1.0% compared to 2016. We cannot guarantee that GDP will increase or remain stable in the future. Future developments in the Brazilian economy may affect Brazil’s growth rates and, consequently, the consumption of our products. As a result, these developments could impair our business strategies, results of operations or financial condition.

The Brazilian economy has been characterized by frequent, and occasionally drastic, intervention by the Brazilian federal government, which has often changed monetary, credit and other policies to influence Brazil’s economy. The Brazilian federal government’s actions to control inflation and other policies have often involved wage and price controls, depreciation of the real , controls on remittances abroad, fluctuations of the Central Bank of Brazil’s base interest rate, as well as other measures. We have no control over, nor can we foresee, any measures or policies that the Brazilian federal government may adopt in the future. We may be materially adversely affected by changes in the policies of the Brazilian federal government, in addition to other general economic factors, including, without limitation:

• political, economic and social instability;

• monetary policies;

• political elections;

• inflation;

• exchange rate fluctuations;

• exchange controls and restrictions on remittances abroad;

• tax policy and amendments to the tax legislation;

• interest rates;

• liquidity of domestic and foreign capital and lending markets;

• government control of the production of our products;

• restrictive environmental and real estate laws and regulations; and

• other political, social and economic policies or developments in or affecting Brazil.

Uncertainty as to whether the Brazilian federal government will implement changes in policy or regulations affecting these or other factors in the future may contribute to economic uncertainty in Brazil and to heightened volatility in the Brazilian securities markets and the securities issued by Brazilian companies.

More recently, Brazil has experienced a severe political crisis and the Brazilian markets have been experiencing heightened volatility due to the uncertainties derived from the ongoing Car Wash (Lava Jato ) investigation, which is being conducted by the Office of the Brazilian Federal Prosecutor, and its impact on the Brazilian economy and political environment. As a result of the ongoing Car Wash investigation, a number of senior politicians, including congressmen and officers of some of the major state-owned companies in Brazil have resigned or been arrested. Other senior elected officials and other public officials in Brazil are being investigated for allegations of unethical and illegal conduct identified during the Car Wash investigation. Further, in 2015, Brazilian prosecutors announced Operation Zelotes , an investigation into large corporations and banks that are alleged to have bribed tax officials to reduce their assessments. The matters that have come, and may continue to come, to light as a result of, or in connection with, the Car Wash or Zelotes investigations and related anti-corruption inquiries have adversely affected, and we expect that they will continue to adversely affect, the Brazilian markets and trading prices of securities issued by Brazilian issuers. Please see “Information About Suzano—Business—Legal and Administrative Proceedings—Brazilian Press Reports of Alleged Tax Investigations” for information about allegations made in the Brazilian press regarding our alleged involvement in Operation Zelotes .

The Brazilian Congress also opened impeachment proceedings against President Dilma Rousseff on December 2, 2015 for allegedly breaking budget laws as she increased economic stimulus during her reelection campaign last year. On April 17, 2016, the Brazilian Lower House of Representatives voted in favor of the admissibility of the impeachment proceedings and the Brazilian Senate voted in favor of commencing the impeachment process on May 12, 2016, removing Ms. Rousseff from the presidency for up to 180 days to defend herself in her impeachment trial. Brazil’s Vice President, Michel Temer, was named Acting President of Brazil on May 12, 2016, in response to Ms. Rousseff’s temporary removal from office. On August 31, 2016, the Brazilian Senate voted in favor of the impeachment, thereby definitively removing Ms. Rousseff from office through the end of her term, and Mr. Temer was sworn in as the country’s new president. Mr. Temer will remain in office until January 2019, when the next President is sworn following the presidential election scheduled for October 2018. The impeachment proceedings have resulted in volatility, and we expect that there may be continued volatility in the Brazilian markets, affecting the trading prices of securities issued by Brazilian issuers during Mr. Temer’s term. Mr. Temer himself had corruption charges levied against him with the Supreme Court on June 26, 2017 by then-Prosecutor-General Rodrigo Janot. On August 2, 2017, the Brazilian House of Representatives voted to temporarily interrupt the investigation of such corruption charges against the President while he holds office. We cannot predict the effects of these recent developments and the current ongoing political uncertainties on the Brazilian economy.

Further, the Brazilian economy has experienced a sharp downturn in recent years due, in part, to the interventionist economic and monetary policies of the Brazilian federal government and the global drop in commodities prices. As of this date, Brazil’s government has proposed to loosen its budget targets for all years through 2020, but it is uncertain whether the acting government will be able to gather the required support in the Brazilian Congress to pass the reform. Citing political challenges and primary deficits, on September 9, 2015, S&P downgraded Brazil to non-investment grade status with a negative outlook. Furthermore, on September 10, 2015, as a result of the downgrade of Brazil, S&P downgraded the ratings of more than 30 Brazilian companies. On February 17, 2016, S&P further downgraded Brazil’s credit ratings. On August 15, 2017, S&P removed Brazil from CreditWatch and affirmed its ‘BB’ rating and ‘negative’ outlook. On January 11, 2018, S&P reduced its rating of Brazil from BB to BB-, and, on February 23, 2018, Fitch reduced its rating of Brazil from BB to BB-. These and other future developments in the Brazilian economy and governmental policies may materially adversely affect us.

Uncertainty over whether the acting Brazilian federal government will implement changes in policy or regulation affecting these or other factors in the future may contribute to economic uncertainty in Brazil and to heightened volatility in the securities issued abroad by Brazilian companies. Historically, the political scenario in Brazil has influenced the performance of the Brazilian economy; in particular, political crises have affected the confidence of investors and the public in general, which adversely affected economic development in Brazil.

Changes in Brazilian fiscal policies and tax laws may adversely affect us.

The Brazilian federal government has frequently implemented and may continue to implement changes in its fiscal policies, including, but not limited to, changes to tax rates, fees, sectoral charges and occasionally the collection of temporary contributions. Some of these measures may result in tax hikes that may negatively affect our business. Increases in taxes could also materially adversely impact industry profitability and the prices of our services, restrict our ability to do business in our existing and target markets and cause our financial results to be negatively impacted. If we are unable to pass on the additional costs associated with such fiscal policy changes to our clients through the prices we charge for our services, we may be adversely affected.

Risks Relating to Our Shares and ADSs

Exchange controls and restrictions on remittances abroad may adversely affect holders of the Suzano ADSs.

Brazilian laws provide that whenever a serious imbalance in Brazil’s balance of payments exists or is anticipated, the Brazilian federal government may impose temporary restrictions on the repatriation by foreign

38

Table of Contents

investors of the proceeds of their investment in Brazil and on the conversion of Brazilian currency into foreign currency. For example, for six months in 1989 and early 1990, the Brazilian federal government restricted all fund transfers that were owed to foreign equity investors and held by the Central Bank of Brazil, in order to preserve Brazil’s foreign currency reserves. These amounts were subsequently released in accordance with Brazilian federal government directives. Although the Brazilian federal government has never exercised such a prerogative since, we cannot guarantee that the Brazilian federal government will not take similar actions in the future.

You may be adversely affected if the Brazilian federal government imposes restrictions on the remittance to foreign investors of the proceeds of their investments in Brazil and, as it has done in the past, on the conversion of the real into foreign currencies. These restrictions could hinder or prevent the conversion of dividends, distributions or the proceeds from any sale of shares, as the case may be, into U.S. dollars and the remittance of U.S. dollars abroad. We cannot assure that the government will not take this measure or similar measures in the future. Holders of the Suzano ADSs could be adversely affected by delays in, or a refusal to grant, any required governmental approval for conversion of real payments and remittances abroad in respect of the shares, including the shares underlying the ADSs. In such a case, our ADS depositary will distribute reais or hold the reais it cannot convert for the account of the ADS holders who have not been paid.

Holders of the Suzano ADSs may face difficulties in serving process on or enforcing judgments against us and other persons.

We are organized under and are subject to the laws of Brazil and all our directors and executive officers and our independent registered public accounting firm reside or are based in Brazil. Substantially all of our assets and those of these other persons are located in Brazil. As a result, it may not be possible for holders of the ADSs to effect service of process upon us or these other persons within the United States or other jurisdictions outside Brazil or to enforce against us or these other persons judgments obtained in the United States or other jurisdictions outside Brazil. Because judgments of U.S. courts for civil liabilities based upon the U.S. federal securities laws may only be enforced in Brazil if certain conditions are met, our ADS holders may face greater difficulties in protecting their interests due to actions by us, our directors or executive officers than would shareholders of a U.S. corporation.

The relative volatility and illiquidity of the Brazilian securities markets may adversely affect holders of the Suzano Shares and the Suzano ADSs.

Investments in securities, such as our common shares or ADSs, of issuers from emerging market countries, including Brazil, involve a higher degree of risk than investments in securities of issuers from more developed countries. The Brazilian securities market is substantially smaller, less liquid, more concentrated and more volatile than major securities markets in the United States and other jurisdictions, and may be regulated differently from the ways familiar to U.S. investors. There is also significantly greater concentration in the Brazilian securities market than in major securities markets in the United States. These features may substantially limit the ability to sell the Suzano Shares, including the Suzano Shares underlying the Suzano ADSs, at a price and time at which holders wish to do so. A liquid and active market may never develop for the Suzano Shares or the Suzano ADSs, and as a result, the ability of holders of the Suzano Shares or the Suzano ADSs to sell at the desired price or time may be significantly hindered.

Holders of the Suzano ADSs may face difficulties in protecting their interests because we are subject to different corporate rules and regulations than a U.S. company and holders of the Suzano Shares and the Suzano ADSs may have fewer and less well-defined rights.

Holders of ADSs are not direct shareholders of our Company and are unable to enforce the rights of shareholders under our bylaws and Brazilian law, and holders of Suzano Shares are generally required under our bylaws to resolve any disputes with us through arbitration. Our corporate affairs are governed by our bylaws and

39

Table of Contents

Brazilian law, which differ from the legal principles that would apply if we were incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States, or elsewhere outside Brazil. Although insider trading and price manipulation are crimes under Brazilian law, the Brazilian securities markets are not as highly regulated and supervised as the U.S. securities markets or the markets in some other jurisdictions. In addition, rules and policies against self-dealing or for preserving shareholder interests may also be less well-defined and enforced in Brazil than in the United States and certain other countries, which may put holders of the Suzano Shares or the Suzano ADSs at a potential disadvantage. The disclosure required of public companies in Brazil may also be less complete or informative than that required of publicly held companies in the United States or in certain other countries.

Holders of the Suzano ADSs do not have the same voting rights as our shareholders.

Holders of the Suzano ADSs do not have the same voting rights as holders of the Suzano Shares. Holders of the Suzano ADSs are entitled to the contractual rights set forth for their benefit under the Suzano Deposit Agreement (as defined herein). ADS holders exercise voting rights by providing instructions to the Suzano Depositary (as defined herein), as opposed to attending shareholders meetings or voting by other means available to shareholders. In practice, the ability of a holder of ADSs to instruct the depositary as to voting will depend on the timing and procedures for providing instructions to the depositary, either directly or through the holder’s custodian and clearing system.

An exchange of ADSs for shares risks the loss of certain foreign currency remittance and Brazilian tax advantages.

The ADSs benefit from the certificate of foreign capital registration, which permits our depositary to convert dividends and other distributions with respect to common shares into foreign currency, and to remit the proceeds abroad. Holders of Suzano ADSs who exchange their Suzano ADSs for Suzano Shares will then be entitled to rely on the depositary’s certificate of foreign capital registration for five business days from the date of exchange. Thereafter, they will not be able to remit non-Brazilian currency abroad unless they obtain their own certificate of foreign capital registration, or unless they qualify under Resolution No. 4,373/2014 of the CMN, which entitles certain investors to buy and sell shares on Brazilian stock exchanges without obtaining separate certificates of registration. If holders of ADSs do not qualify under Resolution No. 4,373/2014, they will generally be subject to less favorable tax treatment on distributions with respect to our common shares. There can be no assurance that the certificate of registration of our depositary, or any certificate of foreign capital registration obtained by holders of ADSs, will not be affected by future legislative or regulatory changes, or that additional Brazilian law restrictions applicable to their investment in the ADSs may not be imposed in the future. Holders of Suzano Shares will be subject to, and holders of Suzano ADSs could be subject to, Brazilian income tax on capital gains from sales of shares or ADSs.

Brazilian Law No. 10,833/03 provides that gains on the disposition of assets located in Brazil by non-residents of Brazil, whether to other non-residents or to Brazilian residents, will be subject to Brazilian taxation. The Suzano Shares are expected to be treated as assets located in Brazil for purposes of the law, and gains on the disposition of Suzano Shares, even by non-residents of Brazil, are expected to be subject to Brazilian taxation. In addition, the Suzano ADSs may be treated as assets located in Brazil for purposes of the law, and therefore gains on the disposition of Suzano ADSs by non-residents of Brazil may be subject to Brazilian taxation. Although the holders of Suzano ADSs outside Brazil may have grounds to assert that Law No. 10,833/00 does not apply to sales or other dispositions of ADSs, it is not possible to predict whether that understanding will ultimately prevail in the courts of Brazil given the general and unclear scope of Law No. 10,833/03 and the absence of judicial court rulings in respect thereof.

Holders of the Suzano ADSs may not be able to exercise the preemptive rights relating to the Suzano Shares.

Holders of the Suzano ADSs may not be able to exercise the preemptive rights relating to the Suzano Shares underlying their Suzano ADSs unless a registration statement under the Securities Act is effective with respect to

40

Table of Contents

the rights or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available. We are not obligated to file a registration statement with respect to the shares or other securities relating to these preemptive rights, and we cannot assure holders of the Suzano ADSs that we will file any such registration statement. Unless we file a registration statement or an exemption from registration applies, holders of the Suzano ADSs may receive only the net proceeds from the sale of their preemptive rights by the depositary or, if the preemptive rights cannot be sold, the rights will be allowed to lapse. For a more complete description of preemptive rights with respect to the common shares, see “Description of Suzano Shares and Suzano Bylaws—Rights of Holders of our Common Shares—Preemptive Rights”.

Our future issuances of new securities may result in a dilution of our shareholders’ stake.

We may seek to raise additional capital in the future through public or private issuances of shares or securities convertible into shares. According to Article 172 of the Brazilian Corporation Law, we may not be required to grant preemptive rights to our shareholders in the event of a capital increase through a public offering of shares or securities convertible into shares, which may result in a dilution of our current shareholders’ stake in our company.

The holders of the Suzano Shares (including the Suzano Shares underlying the Suzano ADSs) may not receive dividends or interest on own capital.

According to our bylaws, our shareholders are entitled to receive a mandatory minimum annual dividend of the lower of (i) 25% of our annual net profit, calculated and adjusted under the terms of the Brazilian Corporation Law, or (ii) 10% of our operating cash generation in the corresponding fiscal period, which is calculated by subtracting the amount of the investments in maintenance of the respective fiscal year from the Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in our bylaws. Our bylaws allow for the payment of intermediary dividends, to the retained earnings account or the existing earnings reserves in the last yearly or six-month balance, by means of the annual dividend. We may also pay interest on own capital, as described by Brazilian law. The intermediary dividends and the interest on own capital declared in each fiscal period may be imputed to the mandatory dividend that results from the fiscal period in which they are distributed. At the general shareholders meeting, shareholders may decide on the capitalization, on the offset of our losses or on the net profit retention, as provided for in the Brazilian Corporation Law, with the aforementioned net profit not being made available for the payment of dividends or interest on own capital.

Our management is strongly influenced by our controlling shareholders and their interests may conflict with the interests of the other shareholders.

Our controlling shareholders have the power to, among other things, appoint a majority of the members of our board of directors and to decide any matters requiring shareholder approval, including related-party transactions, corporate reorganizations and disposals, and the timing and payment of any future dividends, subject to the requirements of mandatory dividends under the Brazilian Corporation Law. Our controlling shareholders may have an interest in making acquisitions, disposals of assets, partnerships, seeking financing or making other decisions that may conflict with the interests of the other shareholders.

As part of the negotiations regarding the terms of the Merger, our controlling shareholders entered into the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement with BNDESPAR, which, among other terms, provides for the right by BNDESPAR to nominate one independent member of our board of directors and for the requirement that Suzano comply with certain company leverage limitations. These requirements apply for so long as BNDESPAR maintains a certain specified minimum ownership in Suzano, which will be reached following the completion of the Merger. BNDESPAR also is a wholly owned subsidiary of, with separate operations from, the Brazilian development bank (“ BNDES ”), which has provided financing to Suzano. See “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Sources and Uses of Funds—Debt—BNDES Financing”.

41

Table of Contents

The provisions of the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement do not provide BNDESPAR with any rights that would result in it being deemed a controlling shareholder nor do they affect our controlling shareholders’ power to control the company. However, the provisions of the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement will limit our ability to increase our leverage and increase the independence requirements for our board members. See “Transaction Documents—BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement”.

Judgments of Brazilian courts with respect to our shares will be payable only in reais .

If proceedings are brought in the courts of Brazil seeking to enforce our obligations in respect of the Suzano Shares, we will not be required to discharge our obligations in a currency other than reais . Under Brazilian exchange control limitations, an obligation in Brazil to pay amounts denominated in a currency other than reais may only be satisfied in Brazilian currency at the exchange rate, as determined by the Central Bank of Brazil, in effect on the date the judgment is obtained, and such amounts are then adjusted to reflect exchange rate variations through the effective payment date. The then-prevailing exchange rate may not afford non-Brazilian investors with full compensation for any claim arising out of or related to our obligations under the Suzano Shares or the Suzano ADSs.

As a foreign private issuer, we have different disclosure and other requirements than U.S. domestic registrants.

As a foreign private issuer, we may be subject to different disclosure and other requirements than domestic U.S. registrants. For example, as a foreign private issuer, in the United States, we are not subject to the same disclosure requirements as a domestic U.S. registrant under the Exchange Act, including the requirements to prepare and issue quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or to file current reports on Form 8-K upon the occurrence of specified significant events, the proxy rules applicable to domestic U.S. registrants under Section 14 of the Exchange Act or the insider reporting and shortswing profit rules applicable to domestic U.S. registrants under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we rely on exemptions from certain U.S. rules which will permit us to follow Brazilian legal requirements rather than certain of the requirements that are applicable to U.S. domestic registrants.

Furthermore, foreign private issuers are required to file their annual report on Form 20-F within 120 days following the end of each fiscal year, while U.S. domestic issuers that are accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 75 days following the end of each fiscal year. As a result of the above, even though, following the declaration of effectiveness of the registration to which this prospectus is attached, we will be required to make submissions on Form 6-K disclosing the information that we have made or are required to make public pursuant to Brazilian law, or are required to distribute to shareholders generally, and that is material to us, you may not receive information of the same type or amount that is required to be disclosed to shareholders of a U.S. company.

COMPARATIVE HISTORICAL AND UNAUDITED PRO FORMA PER SHARE DATA

The following comparative historical and unaudited pro forma per share data table should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information included elsewhere in this prospectus, together with Fibria’s year-end and interim financial statements incorporated by reference into this prospectus. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information below is presented using the same underlying assumptions as those used in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information. This information is presented for illustrative purposes only and based on assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The actual adjustments to our consolidated financial statements for future periods will depend upon a number of factors and additional information that will be available on or after the Closing Date. Accordingly, the actual adjustments that will appear in our consolidated financial statements for future periods will differ from these pro forma adjustments, and those differences may be material. You should not rely on this information as being indicative of the actual results that the combined businesses of our company and Fibria will experience after the Merger.

The following tables present historical, unaudited pro forma and unaudited pro forma equivalent per share data assuming the completion of the Merger. The amounts presented reflect the following:

• Pro forma book value per share data assumes that the Merger was consummated on December 31, 2017 and on June 30, 2018, respectively. Pro forma earnings per share data and net income for the period per share assume that the Merger was consummated on January 1, 2017.

• Book value per share is computed by dividing total shareholders’ equity by the number of historical shares outstanding as of December 31, 2017 and as of June 30, 2018, respectively. Pro forma book value per share is computed by dividing total pro forma shareholders’ equity by the number of pro forma shares outstanding as of December 31, 2017 and as of June 30, 2018, respectively.

• Cash Dividends per share data is calculated by dividing total dividends paid by us by the total historical number of shares outstanding during as of December 31, 2017 and as of June 30, 2018, respectively. Pro forma dividends per share data is the same as the historical since no change in dividend policy is expected as a result of the Merger.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Set forth below are the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017 (together with the related notes, the “ Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information ”). The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information combines the historical consolidated balance sheets of Suzano and Fibria giving effect to the proposed Merger described below. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information has been derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of Suzano, which is the acquirer for accounting purposes as well, which are included elsewhere in this prospectus.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information has been presented for informational purposes only. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information does not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or the consolidated financial position of Suzano would have been if the proposed Merger had occurred on the dates assumed, nor is it necessarily indicative of future consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

On March 15, 2018, Suzano Holding S.A., together with the other Suzano Controlling Shareholders, entered into the Voting Agreement with the Fibria Controlling Shareholders, and Suzano as an intervening party, by which the Suzano Controlling Shareholders and the Fibria Controlling Shareholders agreed to exercise their voting rights so as to effect the combination of the operations and the shareholdings of Fibria and Suzano, by means of a merger of shares ( incorporação de ações) under Brazilian law.

As part of the Merger:

• Suzano will contribute capital to a wholly owned subsidiary, Holding, in cash totaling R$ 29.0 billion, resulting in the issuance of 29 billion new shares, all owned by Suzano. Each share has a par value of R$ 1.00;

• The shares of Fibria will be merged into Holding, which will issue 553,183,624 common shares and 553,183,624 redeemable preferred shares (assuming no further issuance of Fibria or Suzano shares prior to the completion of the Merger). One common share and one redeemable preferred share of Holding will be exchanged for each share of Fibria. As a result of such merger of shares, Fibria will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Holding;

• Immediately after issuance of common and redeemable preferred shares, all redeemable preferred shares issued by Holding will be redeemed for R$ 52.50 in cash (as adjusted prior to the Closing Date as described herein) per share and immediately cancelled;

• At the same time each common share of Holding will be exchanged for 0.4611 shares of Suzano, resulting in the issuance of 255 million shares of Suzano;

• Thereafter, Holding will legally merge into Suzano and cease to exist. The share price that will be used to value the consideration will be based on the market price at the time of the acquisition. For the purposes of the June 30, 2018 pro forma balance sheet, we used the June 30, 2018 share price of R$ 44.97 per share;

• After the conclusion of the Merger, Suzano will be the sole shareholder of Fibria; and

• Following the completion of the Merger, Suzano intends to merge Fibria into Suzano as soon as practicable, subject to receipt of the requisite regulatory or other approvals and consents and completion of required procedures customary for such a transaction, after which Fibria would cease to exist and all of Fibria’s rights and obligations would be succeeded to by Suzano, pursuant to Brazilian law.

Table of Contents

All of the foregoing steps will occur substantially simultaneously and will be conditioned on the effectiveness of each of the other steps. The Merger will result in: (a) Suzano owning all the share capital of Fibria; and (b) Fibria’s shareholders receiving, in exchange for each common share of Fibria, (i) R$ 52.50 in cash, which will be adjusted in accordance with fluctuations in CDI from March 15, 2018 to the Closing Date, to be paid in one installment on the Closing Date; and (ii) 0.4611 Suzano Shares to be delivered on the Closing Date.

Suzano has executed binding commitments with certain international financial institutions to provide financing lines in an aggregate amount of up to US$ 9.2 billion, which amount was reduced to US$ 6.7 billion on July 31, 2018, the disbursement of which is conditioned, among other customary conditions, on the completion of the Merger. The proceeds of such financing and other financings obtained by the Suzano, such as R$ 4,661.0 million of debentures (see note 1.1 (a) of Suzano’s unaudited condensed interim financial information), will be used to finance part of the cash consideration paid to current shareholders of Fibria, as well as for general corporate purposes, including exports of Suzano.

Holders of Fibria ADSs will have the right to receive, in exchange for each Fibria ADS, (i) R$ 52.50 in cash, which will be adjusted in accordance with fluctuations in CDI from March 15, 2018 to the Closing Date; and (ii) 0.23055 Suzano ADSs (representing 0.4611 Suzano Shares), in each case to be delivered as soon as practicable following the Closing Date. In connection with the completion of the Merger, Suzano will take the necessary actions to (i) register the Suzano Shares with the SEC and (ii) list Suzano ADSs on the NYSE.

Upon the completion of the Merger, the Fibria Shares and the Fibria ADSs will cease to be traded on the B3 and on the NYSE, respectively.

1. Basis of Presentation

The pro forma condensed financial information has been derived from the audited historical consolidated financial statements of Suzano and Fibria for the year ended December 31, 2017, and from the unaudited historical consolidated interim financial statements of Suzano and Fibria as of June 30, 2018 and for the six-month period then ended, for both Suzano and Fibria. The historical financial statements of Suzano are included elsewhere in this prospectus, the historical financial statements of Fibria are incorporated by reference elsewhere in this prospectus, and the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, such historical financial statements and the related notes contained therein. The pro forma adjustments are based upon currently available information and certain estimates and assumptions, and actual results may differ from the pro forma adjustments. However, management believes that these estimates and assumptions provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects of the contemplated transactions and that the pro forma adjustments are factually supportable and give appropriate effect to those estimates and assumptions.

The pro forma adjustments have been prepared as if the Closing Date had taken place on June 30, 2018, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet, and on January 1, 2017, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed statements of income.

2. Pro Forma Adjustments and Assumptions

The unaudited pro forma condensed financial information is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or the consolidated financial position of Suzano would have been had the proposed Merger been completed on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

Suzano has performed a preliminary valuation analysis of the fair market value of Fibria’s assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed. Using the total consideration for the Merger, Suzano has estimated the allocations to such assets and liabilities. The following table summarizes the allocation of the preliminary purchase price as if the Closing Date had been June 30, 2018 (in millions of reais ):

Cash consideration (1) 29,582.8
Suzano Shares issue (255 million shares at R$ 44.97 per share) 11,467.4
Total consideration 41,050.1 (a )
Book value of Fibria’s shareholders’ equity 15,005.4
Elimination of book value of existing goodwill (4,230.5 )
Book value of Fibria’s shareholders’ equity, net of goodwill 10,775.0
Fair value adjustments
Inventories 567.6
Property, plant and equipment 6,866.7
Customer relationships 3,600.0
Possible loss contingencies (975.3 )
Loans and financing (96.0 )
Deferred Taxes 663.9
Total fair value impacts 10,627.0
Total pro forma goodwill 19,648.1

Table of Contents

(1) The cash consideration will be adjusted in accordance with the fluctuation in CDI from March 15, 2018 to the Closing Date. At June 30, 2018, the adjustment was R$ 534 million using a CDI rate increase of 1.84% and is reflected above. However, if the acquisition were to be delayed one year the CDI impact would be 4.9% based on the average actual CDI rate for the 12 months ending June 30, 2018.

This preliminary purchase price allocation has been used to prepare pro forma adjustments in the pro forma balance sheet and income statement. The final purchase price allocation will be determined when Suzano has completed the detailed valuations and necessary calculations. The final allocation could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in the pro forma adjustments. The final allocation may include (1) changes in the value of the consideration paid, (2) changes in fair values of property, plant and equipment, (3) changes in allocations to intangible assets such as contracts with customers and suppliers, technology and customer relationships as well as goodwill and (4) other changes to assets and liabilities.

The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information and certain estimates and assumptions and, therefore, the actual effects of these transactions will differ from the pro forma adjustments. We have only included material adjustments that are directly attributable to the proposed Merger, factually supportable and, with respect to the statement of income, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results. A general description of the Merger and adjustment is provided as follows:

(a) Consideration paid was estimated based on the terms of the transaction considering that all holders of Fibria Shares will receive Suzano Shares and cash as offered in the Merger. Dissenting Fibria shareholders have the right to withdraw their shares for a cash payment. However, such cash payment would be less than the amount that would be received by not withdrawing. Thus, it is assumed that no holders of Fibria Shares will exercise their withdrawal rights. Consideration will consist of R$ 29,582.8 million to be paid in cash plus 255 million Suzano Shares to be issued on the Closing Date. In this Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information, the Suzano Shares to be issued have been valued using the June 30, 2018 quoted market price of R$ 44.97 per share. Actual consideration will be based on share price on the Closing Date.

• If the Suzano quoted market price per Suzano Share on the Closing Date had increased/decreased by 10% compared to the June 30, 2018 quoted market price, the consideration paid would have increased/decreased by approximately R$ 1,146.7 million, and, as a consequence, goodwill would have increased/decreased by the same amount.

(b) The adjustment represents the adjustment of Fibria’s inventory to fair value at June 30, 2018 of R$ 567.6 million. The fair value calculation is preliminary and subject to change. The fair value was determined based on the estimated selling price of the inventory less selling expenses and a normal profit margin on those manufacturing and selling efforts. We do not expect the increase to have a continuing impact; therefore, fair value adjustment is not included in statement of income.

(c) The adjustment represents the adjustment of Fibria’s property, plant and equipment to fair value on June 30, 2018 in the amount of R$ 6,866.7 million. The fair value calculation is preliminary and subject to change. The land was valued using the market approach method based on price generated by market transactions. The other fixed assets were valued using the cost method, which is based on the principle of substitution, using the cost to replace assets adjusted to inflation rate as an indicator of their fair value. The related increase in depreciation expense, assuming a remaining depreciation expense of R$ 208.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and R$ 104.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, is allocated as Cost of Sales. The depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated

55

Table of Contents

remaining useful lives of the related property, plant and equipment disclosed in Fibria’s annual financial statements. The calculation of the depreciation expense adjustment is as disclosed below:

Fair value adjustment Useful lives (in years) Year Ended December 31, 2017 Six-month Period Ended June 30, 2018
Buildings 1,109.5 25.00 44.4 22.2
Machinery, equipment and facilities 2,991.1 18.18 164.5 82.2
208.9 104.4

The market prices and general inflation rate were used in the calculation above. However, specialized indexes may be applicable depending on the nature of the property, plant and equipment rates reflected, which were double the general inflation rate used above; in addition, prices may vary upon the finalization of the purchase price allocation. If the amount of the fair value adjustment related to Fibria’s property, plant and equipment were to increase by a further R$ 6,866.7 million, goodwill would reduce by such amount and the related increase in depreciation would be R$ 417.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and R$ 208.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018.

(d) The adjustment reflects the net increase in goodwill at June 30, 2018 consisting of the elimination of the book value of Fibria’s existing goodwill in the amount of R$ (4,230.5) million plus the goodwill generated by the Merger of R$19,648.1 million. The adjustment on deferred taxes of R$663.9 million represents the reversal of the deferred tax liability of the eliminated Fibria’s goodwill. It is worth noting that the calculation is a preliminary estimate and the final amount of goodwill may change upon finalization of the purchase price allocation, as disclosed. The factors that make up the final goodwill amount are expected to include mostly synergies from combining operations for cost savings in fields such as forestry, logistics, selling, general and administrative expenses and procurement, which will increase the parties’ competitiveness both in Brazil and overseas. The Company believes that all these initiatives could generate synergies and cash saving in the amount close to the goodwill.

(e) The adjustment represents R$ 3,600.0 million due to recognition of the fair value of major customer relationships at June 30, 2018 and related amortization expense of R $240.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and R$ 120.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, the amortization is allocated in Selling Expense. As disclosed in Fibria’s December 31, 2017 financial statements, its client base is concentrated, with approximately 46% of revenue generated by sales to three major clients. Accordingly, valuation of the major customer relationships was calculated using estimated discounted cash flows. If we used a different assumption, the adjustment could differ significantly. The amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the expected life of the customer relationship (15 years).

• If Suzano had considered 100% of Fibria’s customer list instead of 46% as described above, the value of Fibria’s customer relationships would have been increased by approximately R$ 4,226.1 million, goodwill would have been reduced by such amount and the related increase in amortization would have been R$ 281.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and R$ 140.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018.

(f) Represents the liability for payment of estimated transaction costs of R$ 105.5 million related to the Merger. The historical consolidated balance sheet and income statement of Suzano and Fibria do not reflect any transaction costs related to the Merger for the periods presented.

(g) It is assumed that as of June 30, 2018 the cash consideration of R$ 29,582.8 million will be paid as follows (in millions of reais ):

Cash and cash equivalents 2,000.0
Financial investments 2,661.0
Loans and financing (using part of the US$ 6.7 billion credit line 24,921.8
29,582.8

56

Table of Contents

The cash and cash equivalent of R$ 2,000.0 million and the financial investments of R$ 2,661.0 million shown above were received on June 29, 2018 due to the issuance of a debenture of R$ 4,661.0 million (see note 1.1 (a) of Suzano’s unaudited condensed interim financial information).

For purposes of the pro forma income statement, financial expenses was calculated for the total of the consideration paid:

Debentures issued June 29, 2018 4,661.0
Loans and financing (using part of the US$ 6.7 billion credit line 24,921.8
29,582.8

The related financial expense was R$ 1,287.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and R$ 643.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018. It is assumed that the secured credit line would bear interest at LIBOR plus approximately 2.0% p.a. in USD which is assumed equivalent to a nominal interest rate of 4.4% p.a., without considering any exchange rate variation impacts for the variation of the real (the Company’s functional currency) against the USD. For the year ended December 31, 2017, if the USD had weakened/strengthened by 1% against the real with all other variables held constant, the pro forma financial income/expenses would have been increased by approximately R$ 308.7 million due to the foreign exchange impacts from translation of the USD-denominated long-term debt. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 if the USD had weakened/strengthened by 1% against the real with all other variables held constant, the pro forma financial income/expenses would have been increased by approximately R$ 154.3 million, due to the foreign exchange impacts from translation of USD-denominated long-term debt. Additionally, the amount of R$ 96.0 million reflects the adjustment to the fair value of loans and financing, defined as disclosed in Fibria’s Unaudited Interim Financial Statements.

(h) The adjustment reflects the preliminary estimation of the fair value of legal proceedings disclosed as being possible losses by Fibria’s management. Management estimates that 10% of the total amount disclosed as possible losses at June 30, 2018 represents the fair value estimate of the possible loss contingencies considering the probability of the loss and experience of actual payments. However, any liability recognition for possible losses will depend on Suzano’s ability to make a reliable estimate of the fair value of the related contingencies based on the information available, including the ability to define probabilities of the different potential outcomes, the related cash flows and discount rates. Due to the high level of subjectivity around the realization of such contingencies based on the information currently available, no related amounts have been recorded in the pro forma condensed income statements. Suzano is required to recognize a contingent liability assumed in a business combination at the acquisition date, even if it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Based on that

57

requirement, in the preliminary assessment for the preparation of the pro forma Suzano management identified significant possible loss contingencies disclosed in Fibria’s December 31, 2017 Financial Statements.

Possible tax contingencies
Claim to reimburse development agency tax incentive 142.6
Offset of 1997 income tax losses which was only partially approved 233.6
Income tax assessment - swap of industrial and forestry assets 2,225.2
Income tax assessment - income from Fibria Trading International II 382.6
Income tax assessment - disallowance of depreciation, amortization and depletion expenses -
2010 673 . 7
Income tax assessment – on income of foreign subsidiaries in 2011 64.3
Income tax assessment – for joint-operated entity, Veracel 116.9
Other tax liabilities (706 tax claims) 3,657.0
Subtotal - tax 7,495.9
Possible civil contingencies
Company’s trucks from causing damage to federal highways 1,771.8
Others (620 claims) 484.9
Subtotal - civil 2,256.7
Total possible tax contingencies 9,752.6

Suzano believes that this adjustment is factually supportable based on the following:

i. The total amount of possible loss contingencies are those described in Fibria’s financial statements as of December 31, 2017, which is the latest information available. Fibria’s Management states in their June 30, 2018 interim financial statements that no material change occurred from the December 31, 2017 position.

ii. Amounts disclosed are those related to possible losses, in which case the probability of loss must be considered to be higher than remote as defined by IAS 37 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.” Management assumes that potential contingent losses with a probability of occurrence below 10% would be considered remote and that the possible losses disclosed thus have at least a 10% probability of occurrence. An analysis of the probability of the loss has not been concluded. The probability of loss will depend on a detailed evaluation of the specific facts of the claim including documentation, interpretation of the applicable regulation, applicable due process, among others. In the case of the probability of a possible loss of 30%, the adjustment would have been R$ 2,925 million.

iii. Amounts disclosed in the financial statements of Fibria are the amounts of the legal cases as of the balance sheet date that are subject to interest rates through settlement, normally using rates determined through the Sistema Especial de Liquidação e Custódia (Special System for Settlement and Custody, or SELIC), the settlement system for most of the Brazilian central government’s domestic securities, which are also assumed to be a reasonable estimate of the rate which would be used to discount future cash flows to present value. Thus the disclosed amounts are assumed to be discounted present values.

(i) Represents the elimination of Fibria’s shareholders equity plus the issuance of 255 million shares of Suzano at R$ 44.97 per share (note a) plus transaction costs (note f).

Table of Contents

(j) Reflects the income tax effect in the pro forma income statements based on the statutory rate of Brazilian income tax and social contribution of 34%. No deferred tax balances are reflected in the June 30, 2018 pro forma condensed balance sheet as Suzano has a viable tax plan that it intends to implement which will permit the tax and accounting basis to be the same after acquisition.

(k) The basic and diluted earnings per share were adjusted considering the issuance of 255 million shares of Suzano, as shown below:

Six-month Period Ended June 30, 2018 Year Ended December 31, 2017

THE FIBRIA EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS MEETING

Suzano is providing this prospectus to holders of Fibria Shares (including the Fibria Shares underlying the Fibria ADSs) in advance of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting that Fibria has called for the purpose of approving the Merger. This prospectus contains information that you need to know about the Merger and the proposals to be voted on at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting, in order to be able to vote, or instruct your vote, as applicable, to be cast at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting.

Date, Time and Place of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting

The extraordinary general shareholders meeting of Fibria will be held on September 13, 2018, at 9:30 am, Brasília Time (BRT), at Fibria’s head office in São Paulo, SP, Brazil. Fibria’s headquarters is located at the following address: Rua Fidêncio Ramos, 302, 3rd and 4th (part) floors, Torre B, Edifício Vila Olímpia Corporate, Bairro Vila Olímpia, São Paulo, State of São Paulo, Brazil, 04551-010.

Purpose of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting

At the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting, holders of Fibria Shares will be asked to consider and vote upon the following proposals (collectively, the “ Merger Proposal ”):

• the approval of the Merger, pursuant to which Fibria will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Suzano, as provided for in the Merger Agreement;

• the approval of the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement;

• the approval of the waiver of a mandatory tender offer as provided for by article 33 of the bylaws of Fibria;

• the authorization for the subscription by Fibria’s executive officers on behalf of Fibria’s shareholders of new shares to be issued by Holding, as well as any additional actions required to implement the Merger Agreement and the Merger;

• the approval of an increase in the annual remuneration amount approved in Fibria’s ordinary shareholders meeting for the year of 2018; and

• the approval of the election of two alternate members of the Fibria Board of Directors.

All of the above proposals are connected to the completion of the Merger. You should carefully read this prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the Merger.

The mandatory tender offer (“MTO”) provided for in article 33 of the bylaws of Fibria, the waiver of which is part of the Merger Proposal, provides that any person that becomes the holder of an equity stake in Fibria representing 25% or more of the Fibria Shares is required to launch a tender offer to acquire all of the remaining Fibria Shares in accordance with the provisions of the applicable regulations of the CVM and the B3 and Fibria’s bylaws. The mandatory tender offer is required to be made within 60 days from the date of the event on which title to the qualifying equity stake is acquired.

The vote on each item of the Merger Proposal at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting is interconnected and dependent on the vote of the other items thereof. Therefore, by approving the Merger and accepting to no longer be shareholders of Fibria, each Fibria shareholder will be waiving the MTO provided for in article 33 of the bylaws of Fibria. The approval of the Merger Proposal (which includes the waiver of the MTO provision) is a condition for the Merger provided for in the Merger Agreement.

In connection with the Merger, Fibria Controlling Shareholders have entered into the Voting Agreement, in which they have agreed to vote in favor of the Merger Proposal and all other matters presented by the Fibria

60

Table of Contents

Board of Directors in connection with the Merger. The Fibria Controlling Shareholders hold approximately 58.5% of the aggregate voting power of all Fibria Shares as of the date hereof. On March 27, 2018, the Fibria Board of Directors, including the independent members thereof, resolved to approve, without restrictions or reservations, the adhesion of Fibria to the Voting Agreement for the fulfillment of the obligations applicable to Fibria. For more information, see “The Transaction Documents—Voting Agreement”.

Record Date; Shares Entitled to Vote

All holders of Fibria Shares as of the close of business on the date of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting are entitled to vote on the Merger Proposal at such meeting. All holders of Fibria ADSs outstanding as of the ADS Record Date are entitled to give voting instructions in accordance with the voting procedures of the Fibria Deposit Agreement. Each Fibria Share outstanding as of the date of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting, and each Fibria ADSs outstanding as of the ADS Record Date, is entitled to one vote on the Merger Proposal presented for consideration at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. As of April 30, 2018, there were 553,201,072 Fibria Shares (including Fibria Shares held by the Fibria Depositary) issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting.

If you are a holder of Fibria Shares, you are entitled to attend and vote at the meeting. If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs, you are not entitled to attend the meeting, but you may communicate your voting instructions to the Fibria Depositary in accordance with the voting procedures set forth in the Fibria Deposit Agreement. As a holder of Fibria ADSs, in order for the Fibria Shares underlying your Fibria ADSs to be voted in accordance with your voting instructions, you must give timely instructions to the Fibria Depositary in accordance with the Fibria Deposit Agreement and any notices or information distributed by the Fibria Depositary.

If you are a holder of Fibria Shares, you may be required under the Brazilian Corporation Law to show documents proving your identity to gain admittance to the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. If you grant a proxy to someone to act for you at the meeting, your proxy will be required to show original or certified copies of the documents that grant him or her powers of representation. The proxy must be deposited at or mailed to the head office of Fibria no later than September 10, which is 3 business days before the meeting. The failure to comply with this requirement will not prevent the proxy from attending the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting so long as he or she presents the originals of the documents evidencing his or her powers.

Quorum

In order to validly hold an extraordinary general shareholders meeting of Fibria, in general, the holders of at least 25% of Fibria’s issued and outstanding voting capital must be present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting following first call to constitute a quorum. If that quorum is not reached on first call, any percentage of holders must be present or represented at the meeting following second call. You must be present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting in order to be considered part of the quorum at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. Because there were 553,201,072 Fibria Shares outstanding and entitled to vote as of April 30, 2018, at least 138,300,268 Fibria Shares would have to be present in person or represented by proxy at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting for a quorum to be formed following first call, and any amount of holders of the Fibria Shares would have to be present following second call.

Abstentions from voting by shareholders attending the meeting will be counted for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

Required Vote

In order to effect the Merger, holders of Fibria Shares must adopt the decision to merge Fibria and Suzano as contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The decision to merge requires the affirmative vote of at least 50% of

61

Table of Contents

Fibria’s issued and outstanding voting capital, at an extraordinary general shareholders meeting duly called under Brazilian law. The approval by the holders of Fibria Shares of the Merger Proposal is a condition to the completion of the Merger. If the Merger Proposal is not approved, the Merger will not be completed.

The Fibria Controlling Shareholders, which together hold approximately 58.5% of the issued and outstanding Fibria Shares as of the date hereof, have entered into the Voting Agreement (as defined herein) with the Suzano Controlling Shareholders, which hold approximately 50.8% of the issued and outstanding Suzano Shares as of the date hereof, with Suzano as intervening party. Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Fibria Controlling Shareholders and the Suzano Controlling Shareholders agreed to exercise their voting rights with respect to the Fibria Shares and Suzano Shares, respectively, in favor of the Merger at the Fibria Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting and the Suzano shareholders meeting, respectively. Assuming quorum requirements are met and the meetings are validly held in accordance with Brazilian law, upon the exercise by the Fibria Controlling Shareholders and the Suzano Controlling Shareholders of their voting rights in compliance with the terms of the Voting Agreement, we expect that the shareholders of Fibria and Suzano, respectively, will vote to approve the Merger at their respective meetings. For more information on the Voting Agreement, see the section entitled “The Transaction Documents—Voting Agreement”.

Treatment of Abstentions; Failure to Vote

An abstention occurs when a shareholder attends a meeting, either in person or by proxy, but abstains from voting. At the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting at which shareholders will consider the Merger Proposal, abstentions will be counted in determining whether a quorum is present.

Abstentions and a failure to vote your Fibria Shares will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Merger Proposal.

Absence of Quorum

If a quorum is not present following first call of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting, Fibria will notify holders of Fibria Shares of a subsequent date on which the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting will be convened on second call.

Voting by Directors and Executive Officers of Fibria

As of the date hereof, the Fibria directors and executive officers have the right to vote approximately 57,413 Fibria Shares, representing 0.01% of the Fibria shares then outstanding and entitled to vote. None of the directors or executive officers of Fibria has entered into any agreements obligating them to vote in favor of the Merger Proposal.

Manner of Voting

Holders of Fibria Shares

If you are a holder of Fibria Shares on the date of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting, you may vote your Fibria Shares by attending the meeting in person or, to ensure that your Fibria Shares are represented at the meeting, you may authorize a proxy to vote your Fibria Shares. This prospectus does not constitute a proxy statement. Neither Suzano nor Fibria is asking you for a proxy, and you are requested not to send Suzano or Fibria a proxy.

Holders of Fibria Shares attending the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting must deliver proof of their status as shareholders and proof that they hold the Fibria Shares they intend to vote by delivery of proper identification and a receipt issued by the custodian agent of Fibria Shares.

62

Table of Contents

Holders of Fibria Shares wishing to authorize a proxy to vote their Fibria Shares may do so by mailing the proxy instruments to Fibria’s head office, which instruments must be received by Fibria at least 3 business days in advance of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. Fibria does not accept electronic proxies. The failure to comply with this requirement will not prevent the proxy from attending the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting so long as he or she presents the originals of the documents evidencing his or her powers.

To be valid, the proxy must be appointed less than one year before the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. For legal entities that hold Fibria Shares, any proxy duly constituted in accordance with applicable law and such legal entities’ corporate documents may represent the shareholder at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. However, an investment fund must be represented by its investment fund officer. For individuals who hold Fibria Shares, the proxy must be either a shareholder, an executive officer of Fibria, a lawyer or a financial institution.

Holders of Fibria ADSs

If you are a registered holder of Fibria ADSs, you will receive instructions from the Fibria Depositary with respect to the voting of the Fibria Shares underlying your Fibria ADSs, including any deadlines for the Fibria Depositary to receive voting instructions from you. If you hold Fibria ADSs in an account with a broker or other securities intermediary, you will receive notice and instructions from your securities intermediary, and you must give your instructions in the manner and within the deadline set forth in those instructions. Your instructions will be forwarded to the Fibria Depositary.

Under the Fibria Deposit Agreement, you may only vote to approve or disapprove the Merger Proposal by giving the Fibria Depositary your voting instructions, and you are not entitled to attend the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting. As set forth in the Fibria Deposit Agreement, if the Fibria Depositary timely receives your voting instructions, it will endeavor to vote the Fibria Shares represented by your Fibria ADSs in accordance with such voting instructions. If the Fibria Depositary does not timely receive your voting instructions or if the Fibria Depositary receives timely voting instructions that fail to specify the manner in which the Fibria Shares represented by your Fibria ADSs are to be voted, the Fibria Depositary will deem that you have instructed the Fibria Depositary to cause the Fibria Shares underlying such Fibria ADSs to be voted in favor of the Merger. The Fibria Depositary may set a deadline for the receipt of voting instructions that is earlier than the date of the Fibria extraordinary shareholders meeting. If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs, you must follow the procedures specified by the Fibria Depositary in the applicable notice to holders of Fibria ADSs in order to ensure that your voting instructions are timely received.

Tabulation of Votes

Among other functions, the person appointed as secretary at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting will be responsible for determining the number of Fibria Shares represented at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting to confirm the existence of a quorum, as well as for counting the votes cast at the meeting.

Solicitation of Proxies

Fibria intends to use absentee ballots ( boletim de voto a distância ) to solicit proxies from its shareholders so that they may exercise their voting rights at Fibria’s extraordinary general shareholders meeting. In addition, holders of Fibria Shares can still be represented by proxy in accordance with the Brazilian Corporation Law.

Negotiations and Agreements between the Fibria Controlling Shareholders and the Suzano Controlling Shareholders Regarding the Merger

On February 7, 2018, representatives of Suzano initiated contact with representatives of each of the Fibria Controlling Shareholders to present a verbal indicative, non-binding offer to merge Fibria into Suzano in exchange for a combination of cash and shares of Suzano. At this point, only financial terms were part of the informal discussions. The Fibria Controlling Shareholders and Suzano agreed that discussions involving non-financial terms would require the participation of counsel for the parties to determine the most effective structure for the potential transaction. Suzano decided to present such offer because, as Suzano and Fibria are both leading Brazilian producers and sellers of pulp, it believes that a business combination of these two companies will reduce operating costs and generate substantial synergies in forestry, logistics and overhead costs, enhance stability of supply and continuity in service to customers, and generally increase the combined companies’ competitiveness in the global markets. Suzano did not consider alternative transaction structures or other potential targets prior to presenting such verbal indicative non-binding offer to the Fibria Controlling Shareholders.

In the parties’ discussions on February 7, 2018, Suzano offered a price of 0.6417 Suzano Shares per Fibria Share and a cash payment of R$ 38.30 per Fibria Share, plus R$ 10 per Fibria Share tied to earnout provisions, without interest, through closing of the Merger. The initial offer price was determined based on Suzano’s internal assessments and represented a premium of 31% over Fibria’s share price at the time. The portion of the consideration consisting of Suzano Shares was determined taking into account Suzano’s assessment of its intrinsic value.

From February 7 through February 23, 2018, representatives of Suzano met several times with representatives of the Fibria Controlling Shareholders to explain the rationale for and provide further details on the financial terms of Suzano’s indicative non-binding offer.

On February 16, 2018, news of the potential transaction first leaked to the markets and Suzano responded with a notice to the market filed on the B3 on February 19, 2018, confirming that preliminary discussions were taking place with representatives of the Fibria Controlling Shareholders, but clarifying that, at that point, there was no definition of structure or format for the potential transaction under discussion.

On February 23, 2018, Suzano and the Fibria Controlling Shareholders reached a preliminary agreement on the key economic terms of the transaction. From Suzano’s initial non-binding offer up to the final offer made by Suzano and accepted by the Fibria Controlling Shareholders, the cash component increased, including through Suzano’s agreement to pay interest through closing and the removal of the earnout condition to part of the cash. The parties also began discussions of a possible transaction structure for the transaction, to be implemented through a cash and stock merger, and designated negotiating teams to negotiate the definitive documentation for the Merger and to determine the final structure of the transaction. From February 23, 2018 onwards, the Suzano negotiating team met on a consistent basis with the BNDESPAR and Votorantim negotiating teams to negotiate the definitive agreements relating to the Merger. Because the definitive agreements were negotiated to reflect the material terms that had already been agreed by the parties on February 23, 2018, no material changes were made

65

Table of Contents

to the key economic terms of the Merger Agreement and the other definitive agreements relating to the Merger as a result of the negotiations of these agreements from February 23, 2018 onwards.

On March 12, 2018, Suzano was informed by representatives of each of BNDESPAR and Votorantim that BNDESPAR had received a competing indicative non-binding intention for the acquisition of Fibria from Paper Excellence Group, as disclosed through Fibria’s submission on Form 6-K furnished to the SEC on March 13, 2018. However, the Fibria Controlling Shareholders also confirmed to Suzano that they remained interested in pursuing a transaction with Suzano on basis of the key economic terms already agreed upon by the parties. Accordingly, the parties continued to negotiate the definitive agreements relating to the Merger through March 15, 2018, the date on which the Voting Agreement was signed by each of Suzano and the Fibria Controlling Shareholders. As disclosed in Fibria’s submission on Form 6-K furnished to the SEC on March 13, 2018, Paper Excellence made a competing non-binding and unsolicited offer conditioned on the occurrence of a number of events, each of which had unpredictable results. BNDESPAR therefore had a number of follow-up questions and requests for clarifications with respect to Paper Excellence’s competing offer. As reported by Brazilian media at the time, one of the key conditions of Paper Excellence’s offer was its ability to raise financing to pay for the acquisition of Fibria. Paper Excellence did not clarify whether this particular condition would be met.

In parallel, beginning in early March, Suzano entered into discussions with BNDESPAR to enter into a separate agreement with BNDESPAR to address BNDESPAR’s goals, as a state-owned development bank, of ensuring good governance and a sustainable financial and capital structure for the combined companies. Pursuant to this separate agreement, Suzano would agree to certain governance commitments, financial ratios and other policy commitments that would be effective following the completion of the Merger. While the parties agreed that these provisions would only apply while BNDESPAR’s shareholdings in Suzano remained above a certain threshold, the premise for these negotiations was that any governance and policy requirements in the resulting agreement would be of general benefit for all shareholders in Suzano, and would not result in the inclusion of BNDESPAR in Suzano’s “control group” under Brazilian law.

On March 15, 2018, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders entered into the Voting Agreement with the Fibria Controlling Shareholders, and Suzano as an intervening party, which sets forth the terms of the Merger and the agreement by the Suzano Controlling Shareholders and the Fibria Controlling Shareholders to exercise their voting rights so as to effect the combination of the operations and the shareholdings of Fibria and Suzano, by means of a merger of shares ( incorporação de ações ) under Brazilian law. On the same date, Suzano and BNDESPAR entered into the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement on March 15, 2018. See “The Transaction Documents—BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement”.

On March 27, 2018, the Fibria Board of Directors resolved to approve the adhesion of Fibria to the Voting Agreement for the fulfillment of the obligations applicable to Fibria.

In accordance with the terms of the Voting Agreement, the Fibria Controlling Shareholders shall refrain from negotiating or engaging in any discussions with any third party, in whatever form, aiming at implementing any transaction equal or similar to the Merger, or which might affect or frustrate the completion of the Merger. In addition, during the term of the Voting Agreement, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders and the Fibria Controlling Shareholders undertake not to sell or in any form dispose of the Suzano Shares and Fibria Shares that are subject to the Voting Agreement, as applicable. The Fibria Controlling Shareholders and the Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed that their commitments under the Voting Agreement to vote for and support the Merger will expire 18 months from March 15, 2018, unless such date is extended by mutual agreement of the parties.

Financing Obtained by Suzano for the Merger

Suzano has executed binding commitments with certain international financial institutions to provide financing lines in an aggregate amount of up to US$ 9.2 billion, which amount was reduced to US$6.7 billion on July 31, 2018, the disbursement of which is conditioned, among other customary conditions, on the completion of the Merger. The proceeds of such financing, as well as other financings obtained by Suzano, including the local debentures described elsewhere in the prospectus, will be used to finance part of the cash consideration paid to current shareholders of Fibria, as well as for general corporate purposes, including exports of Suzano.

In connection with the Merger, Suzano has entered into certain commitment letters with a syndicate of lenders, including BNP Paribas, Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A., JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Mizuho Bank,

66

Table of Contents

Ltd., which also acted as lead arrangers and the joint bookrunners. Subject to the terms and conditions of these commitment letters, the lenders committed to provide (i) US$ 6.9 billion under a bridge loan, or the “Bridge Loan”, and (ii) US$ 2.3 billion under an export prepayment facility, or the “EPP” and, collectively with the Bridge Loan, the “Facilities.” The lenders’ commitments are subject to certain conditions, including the execution and delivery of the definitive financing documentation for the Facilities. On July 31, 2018, the

commitment letters were amended to reduce the aggregate commitments under the Bridge Loan from US$ 6.9 billion to US$ 4.4 billion.

Borrower and Guarantors . The borrower under both Facilities will be Suzano Pulp and Paper Europe S.A., a trading company incorporated in Switzerland and wholly owned by Suzano, and the Facilities will be guaranteed by Suzano, Suzano Trading Ltd., Fibria, Fibria International Trade GmbH and any subsidiary of Suzano that, at the time of determination, meets certain asset and revenue thresholds set forth in the agreements. Fibria, Fibria International Trade GmbH and other subsidiaries of Fibria will become guarantors within 30 days of the Closing Date. Suzano has the right, subject to certain conditions, to cause the borrower under each of the Facilities to be replaced by a qualified wholly owned subsidiary of Suzano.

Availability period . The commitments are available from March 15, 2018 through March 15, 2019 or, in the event that any governmental authority approval required in connection with the Merger has not been obtained prior to such date, September 15, 2019.

Use of proceeds . The proceeds of the Bridge Loan must be used, together with cash on hand of Suzano and/or other available financing resources, to finance the cash portion of the purchase price payable pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and to pay fees, commissions and expenses in connection therewith. The proceeds of the EPP must be used for debt refinancing and financing of pre-export transactions, including expected pre-export transactions of Fibria or subsidiaries of Fibria that will become subsidiaries of Suzano upon consummation of the Merger.

Interest. Loans outstanding under the Facilities will bear interest at LIBOR for the relevant interest period plus margin determined based on the credit ratings for long-term foreign currency denominated debt of Suzano. The interest rate on the Bridge Loan is subject to a 0.25% increase of the applicable margin then in effect on the 180th day following the borrowing date and every 90th day thereafter.

Maturity. Subject to the terms and conditions of the commitment letters, the Bridge Loan will mature on March 15, 2021. The EPP will mature on the earlier date of (a) six years after March 15, 2018 and (b) five years following the borrowing date.

Prepayments and Redemptions. Except in certain circumstances and subject to certain procedural requirements, voluntary reductions of the unutilized commitments and prepayments of borrowings under the Facilities will be permitted at any time, in minimum principal amounts, without premium or penalty.

The commitments under the Bridge Loan will be permanently reduced out of the proceeds of debt or equity issuances of the borrower or the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. Also, any loans under the Bridge Loan must be prepaid in case of certain dispositions of assets, incurrence of certain debt (not including borrowings under pre-existing credit facilities, certain debt denominated in Brazilian reais , working capital facilities, ordinary course capital leases, purchase money and equipment financings or certain refinancing debt), or in case of termination of the Merger Agreement.

Security. The Bridge Loan will be senior unsecured obligations of the borrower and the guarantors. The EPP will be secured by a lien on certain qualified receivables of the borrower and certain collateral accounts in which the proceeds of such receivables are deposited.

Covenants. The Facilities will contain a number of affirmative and negative covenants, including:

• Obligation to comply with certain reporting requirements;

67

Brazilian Corporation Law Aspects Relating to the Merger

Each of Fibria and Suzano is a Brazilian company. Therefore Brazilian law and the rules of the CVM govern the shareholder approvals required to authorize the Merger, which shareholders are entitled to vote with respect to the Merger and how shareholder voting takes place. Brazilian law and the rules of the CVM also govern the duties and obligations of each of Fibria and Suzano and each of the Fibria Board of Directors and Suzano Board of Directors in connection with the Merger. The duties of a board of directors of a Brazilian company registered with the CVM, which includes both Fibria and Suzano, are:

(a) a duty of care and diligence. A director shall make informed decisions (using information reasonably needed to make the decision), thorough decisions (analyzing different alternatives and possible consequences) and unbiased decisions (without resulting in direct or indirect personal benefit to the director), and generally perform their duties as would reasonably be performed by an active and honest person dealing with his/her own business;

(b) a duty of compliance/best interests. A director shall perform his/her duties in the company’s best interests even if the scope of the company’s purpose differs from the interests of the shareholder that elected such director;

(c) a duty of loyalty. A director shall serve the company with loyalty and treat company affairs with strict confidentiality. A director shall keep confidential any information not disclosed to the public, obtained as a result of the director’s position and that may influence the value of the company’s securities;

(d) a duty to avoid conflicts of interest. A director shall not actively participate in any transaction where his/her interests conflict with those of the company and shall refrain from voting in any resolution taken by other directors related to such a matter. A director may enter into agreements with the company only on reasonable and equitable terms, equivalent to those prevailing in the market or that the company would enter into with third parties; and

(e) a duty to inform. A director shall disclose to the market any material fact involving the company.

Under Brazilian law, an extraordinary general shareholders meeting must be held to consider and vote upon certain transactions such as the Merger. Although under the Brazilian Corporation Law, all shareholders may attend any shareholders’ meeting, only common shareholders generally have full voting rights, including in connection with resolutions to approve corporate restructuring transactions, such as the Merger.

The Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting will be held on September 13, 2018. The Suzano extraordinary general shareholders meeting will be held on September 13, 2018. If the Merger is approved by the Fibria shareholders and the Suzano shareholders, no further shareholder approvals are required under Brazilian law to complete the Merger. NEITHER SUZANO NOR FIBRIA IS ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND SUZANO OR FIBRIA A PROXY.

Under Brazilian law, in corporate reorganizations involving controlling and controlled companies, the constituent companies are required to provide disclosure to shareholders with respect to the calculation of the exchange ratio used to affect the reorganization, with reference to market prices (as if the controlled company had been sold). These disclosure requirements are designed to provide noncontrolling shareholders with a parameter against which to evaluate the proposed transaction and to decide whether to approve the proposed transaction. Brazilian law does not (1) establish any specific, minimum or maximum exchange ratio, (2) require that the board of directors of either of the constituent companies formally determine that the terms of the proposed transaction are “fair,” either procedurally or financially, to its noncontrolling shareholders, (3) require the establishment of any special independent committee or otherwise alter the corporate governance rules in connection with the proposed transaction or (4) impose any prohibition or limitation on the voting rights of the controlling shareholder.

Reasons for the Merger

We believe that the Merger will enable the creation of a solid company with top-notch, strategically located assets that is equipped to supply clients with its products on all continents in an efficient manner. We expect the Merger to reduce operating costs and generate substantial synergies in our areas of forestry, logistics and overhead, which will increase our competitiveness both in Brazil and overseas. We believe the Merger will also enhance our stability of supply, and customers will benefit from continuity in service, through a greater portfolio of resources in relation to forestry, manufacturing sites and logistical options. We anticipate that the combination of our operations and shipping volumes with those of Fibria will allow us to ship products globally more efficiently and become an even more reliable supplier. Finally, we expect the Merger to the Merger will result in substantial positive externalities in the form of environmental and social benefits, as a result of our activities and our commitment to meet, and exceed, environmental standards and reduce CO 2 emission rates.

Suzano’s management analyzed the expected synergies from the Merger based on past comparable transactions, such as the merger of Aracruz Celulose S.A. and Votorantim Celulose e Papel, S.A. in Brazil, and data from market experts in the fields of logistics and forestry. Independent market analysts estimated that the Merger could generate a present value of approximately R$ 8 billion to R$ 10 billion related to forestry, logistics, procurement and administrative activities. Suzano’s initial estimates of expected synergies were at the time of the announcement of the Merger, and continue to be, in line with the range estimated by independent market experts (which is based, in turn, on publicly available information of both companies). However, Suzano’s internal assessment of the synergies expected from the Merger is ongoing, and no assurances can be given that such estimates will not change or that such synergies can be achieved. Actual results of the combined companies following the Merger could differ greatly from any such estimates.

Despite the expected benefits of and reasons for the Merger, the following factors will affect the holders of Fibria Securities and Suzano Securities:

• the aforementioned anticipated synergies resulting from the Merger may not materialize (see “Risk Factors”);

• as a result of dilution attributable to the relative equity values of the companies involved in the Merger and the fact that a significant portion of the Merger Consideration is being paid in cash, holders of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs will have a lower ownership percentage in Suzano than they currently have in Fibria, as a result of the issuance of the new Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs in the Merger (see “Risk Factors”);

• the Suzano Securities that holders of Fibria Securities will receive in the Merger will represent an investment in a different business enterprise from that in which holders of Fibria Securities originally invested as a current holder of Fibria Securities;

• while it is expected that the Suzano ADSs will be listed and traded as ADSs on the NYSE, there can be no assurance that such listing will occur in a timely fashion, if at all; and

• Suzano will be more leveraged than Fibria is currently (see “Risk Factors”).

Transaction Structure and Merger Consideration

The following is a summary of the material terms of the Merger:

• each common share of Fibria will be exchanged for 0.4611 common share, no par value, of Suzano, plus R$ 52.50 in cash (as adjusted prior to the Closing Date in accordance with fluctuations in CDI);

• each Fibria ADS will be exchanged for 0.23055 Suzano ADSs (each Suzano ADS representing the right to receive two Suzano Shares and each Fibria ADS representing the right to receive one common share of Fibria), plus R$ 52.50 in cash (as adjusted prior to the Closing Date in accordance with fluctuations in CDI and any changes that may be made to the share-to-ADS ratio of our ADS program after the date of this prospectus);

70

Table of Contents

• holders of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs will receive cash in lieu of any entitlements to fractional Suzano Shares or fractional Suzano ADSs, as applicable, to which they would be entitled as a result of the Merger;

• holders of Fibria Shares that do not vote in favor of, or vote against, the Merger Proposal will have withdrawal rights;

• the Suzano common shares issued as part of the completion of the Merger will be registered under the Securities Act and Suzano will file Annual Reports on Form 20-F and make submissions on Form 6-K with the SEC;

• the Suzano Shares, including those to be issued as part of the completion of the Merger, are listed on the B3;

• Suzano will apply to have the Suzano ADSs issued as part of the completion of the Merger listed on the NYSE;

• Fibria is expected to be deregistered under the Exchange Act and Fibria will no longer file Annual Reports on Form 20-F or make submissions on Form 6-K with the SEC;

• the Fibria ADSs will be delisted from the NYSE, the Fibria Shares will be delisted from the B3 and Fibria will be deregistered from the CVM; and

• any dividends to holders of Fibria Shares or Suzano Shares (including the common shares underlying the Fibria ADSs and the Suzano ADSs, respectively) with respect to fiscal years after the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 will be paid in accordance with the bylaws ( estatuto social ) of Suzano and Brazilian law, as described in “Description of Suzano Shares and Suzano Bylaws—Dividends”.

The Merger Consideration was determined through a negotiation process, and includes both cash and a share component in order to offer holders of Fibria Shares the benefit of synergies. The portion of the Merger Consideration consisting of Suzano Shares was determined in consideration of Suzano’s indebtedness policy, which provides for a maximum leverage ratio.

Distribution of the Merger Consideration and Receipt of the Suzano Shares, Suzano ADSs and Cash Consideration

As a result of the Merger, without any action by you, each common share of Fibria will become 0.4611 common share, no par value, of Suzano. Because the Suzano Shares and Fibria Shares are book-entry shares, an entry or entries will be made in the share registry of Suzano to evidence the Suzano Shares received by you in the Merger. Neither you nor any other person will receive certificates evidencing Suzano Shares.

We will deliver Suzano Shares, Suzano ADSs and the cash consideration in connection with the Merger as promptly as practicable on or after the Closing Date. Prior to the Closing Date, the Fibria Shares and the Suzano Shares are expected to continue to trade on the B3, and the Fibria ADSs are expected to continue to trade on the NYSE, under their existing ticker symbols.

If holders of Fibria Shares (including the Fibria Shares underlying the Fibria ADSs) are entitled to fractional Suzano Shares, the fractional interests in the Suzano Shares will be sold and the cash distributed to holders. If holders of Fibria ADSs are entitled to fractional Suzano ADSs, the fractional interests in the Suzano ADSs will be sold and the cash distributed to holders.

Receipt of Suzano ADSs

As a holder of Fibria ADSs, for each Fibria ADS that you hold, you will receive 0.23055 Suzano ADSs (representing 0.4611 Suzano Shares), adjusted prior to the Closing Date in accordance with any changes that may be made to the share-to-ADS ratio of our ADS program after the date of this prospectus. On the Closing Date, Suzano will deposit with the custodian in Brazil for the Fibria Depositary Suzano Shares issuable in respect of the Fibria Shares then held in the Fibria ADS program. The Fibria Depositary will then deposit those Suzano Shares into the Suzano ADS program by depositing the Suzano Shares with the Suzano custodian in Brazil, and the Suzano Depositary will issue and deliver new Suzano ADSs representing those Suzano Shares, in accordance with the Suzano Deposit Agreement to the Fibria Depositary. Upon receipt of such Suzano ADSs, the Fibria Depositary will deliver such Suzano ADSs to holders of Fibria ADSs in exchange for their Fibria ADSs, subject to the procedures set forth below and in the Fibria Deposit Agreement. Upon receipt of your Suzano ADSs, if you so desire, you will be able to withdraw in Brazil the Suzano Shares underlying your new Suzano ADSs in the same manner as current Suzano ADS holders are able to do so.

If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs and you hold Fibria ADSs through a broker or other securities intermediary, no further action by you is required in order to receive your Merger Consideration. The whole Suzano ADSs and cash consideration that you are entitled to receive as a result of the Merger will automatically be credited to your account as promptly as practicable on or after the Closing Date.

If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs and you hold as a registered holder of uncertificated Fibria ADSs, no further action by you is required in connection with the Merger. The whole Suzano ADSs to which you are

72

Table of Contents

entitled will be registered in your name and you will receive a confirmation of that registration. You will also receive a check for the cash consideration and your share of the net proceeds of a sale of your entitlement to any fraction of a Suzano ADS.

If you are a holder of Fibria ADSs and you are a registered holder of certificated Fibria ADSs, to receive your Suzano ADSs, you must surrender your Fibria ADSs to the Fibria Depositary, complete the Letter of Transmittal, sent to you by the Fibria Depositary, and comply with the procedures described in the Letter of Transmittal, in order to exchange your Fibria ADSs for Suzano ADSs. The whole Suzano ADSs to which you are entitled will be registered in your name on an uncertificated basis and you will receive a confirmation of that registration. You will also receive a check for the cash consideration and your share of the net proceeds of a sale of your entitlement to any fraction of a Suzano ADS.

If you hold Fibria ADSs and the product of the applicable exchange ratio and the number of Fibria ADSs you hold is not a whole number, the number of Suzano ADSs you will receive in the Merger will be rounded down to the largest whole number. The Fibria Depositary will attempt to sell on the open market the entitlement to fractional Suzano ADSs to which you would otherwise be entitled. You will receive cash instead of any entitlement to fractional Suzano ADSs you are entitled to receive based on any net proceeds (after deducting applicable fees, taxes and expenses, including sales commissions) from any sale on the NYSE of the aggregate number of fractional entitlements to Suzano ADSs. Payments for fractional Suzano ADS entitlements will be available to registered holders approximately two business days after the Fibria Depositary completes sales of the aggregated fractional Suzano ADSs on the NYSE.

You do not have to pay in cash any fees or commissions to Suzano, Fibria, or to the Fibria Depositary, for the sale of your fractional entitlements to Suzano Shares or Suzano ADSs, since the applicable fees and expenses will be deducted from any amounts you receive. If you hold Fibria ADSs, you will have to pay fees for the cancellation of your Fibria ADSs that you surrender in connection with the Merger, in the amount of US$ 0.05 per Fibria ADS cancelled (which will be deducted from the cash portion of the ADS Merger Consideration). However, you will not have to pay any ADS issuance fees for the Suzano ADSs issued to you in exchange for your Fibria ADSs, as set forth in the Suzano Deposit Agreement.

You will not have to pay any brokerage commission if your Fibria Shares or Fibria ADSs are registered in your name. However, if your securities are held through a bank or broker or a custodian linked to a stock exchange, you should consult with them as to whether or not they charge any transaction fee or service charges in connection with the Merger. The sale of fractional entitlements to Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs will be subject to brokerage commissions to be deducted from the sale proceeds.

Listing of Suzano’s ADSs

Following the approval by the Fibria shareholders and the Suzano shareholders of the Merger and the Merger Agreement, we will apply to list on the NYSE the Suzano ADSs to be issued in connection with the Merger, effective as of the Closing Date. There can be no assurance that the NYSE will accept the listing of the Suzano ADSs, however.

Delisting and Deregistration of Fibria Shares and ADSs

After the Merger is completed, the Fibria Shares will be delisted from the B3, the Fibria ADSs will be delisted from the NYSE, Fibria will be deregistered under the Exchange Act and Fibria will be registered from the CVM.

Withdrawal Rights in the Merger

Holders of Fibria Shares who vote to approve the Merger Proposal will not have withdrawal rights under the Brazilian Corporation Law. Holders of Fibria Shares who vote against the approval of the Merger Proposal, or

73

Table of Contents

who do not vote on the approval of the Merger, will have withdrawal rights under the Brazilian Corporation Law. Holders of Fibria ADSs will not be able to exercise withdrawal rights, even if they give instructions to the Fibria Depositary (as defined herein) to vote against the Merger Proposal. Holders of Fibria ADSs who wish to assert withdrawal rights will need to become shareholders of Fibria in Brazil, in accordance with the procedures for withdrawing Fibria Shares under the Fibria Deposit Agreement, prior to September 13, 2018 and take all requisite actions to assert withdrawal rights as Fibria shareholders in Brazil within the time period set forth above. Other than the withdrawal rights described herein, and subject to the conditions described herein, holders of Fibria Securities do not have appraisal or dissenters’ rights under Brazilian law.

Withdrawal rights must be exercised within 30 days of the publication by Fibria of the minutes of Fibria’s extraordinary general shareholders meeting at which the Merger Proposal is approved. If any holders of Fibria Shares exercise this right, they will receive from Fibria a cash amount for their Fibria Shares equal to R$ 26.36 per share, calculated in accordance with the Brazilian Corporation Law, based on the book value per share of Fibria’s shareholders’ equity as set forth in Fibria’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2017, without prejudice to the right of such holders to request the preparation of a special balance sheet. Holders of Fibria Shares that exercise their withdrawal rights will receive the cash amount on the Closing Date.

Under the Brazilian Corporation Law, if the Fibria Board of Directors believes that the total value of the withdrawal rights exercised by the holders of Fibria Shares may place at risk the financial stability of Fibria, the Fibria Board of Directors may reconsider the Merger within ten days after the end of the withdrawal rights exercise period. If the Fibria Board of Directors elects to reconsider the Merger, the Merger will not be consummated and the payment relating to the exercise of withdrawal rights will not become due. Payment relating to the exercise of the withdrawal rights will not be due if the Merger is not completed.

Immediately following the Merger, the composition of the board of directors and the executive officers of Suzano will remain the same as the ones currently in place.

However, within 90 days following the completion of the Merger, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders are required to cause an extraordinary general shareholders meeting of Suzano to be called to decide on the appointment of the BNDESPAR member of the board of directors. Under the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed to vote in favor of the candidate proposed by BNDESPAR, subject to meeting the independence qualifications set forth therein, up until (and including) the

75

Table of Contents

annual shareholders meeting in 2020, when the candidate proposed by BNDESPAR for election to the Suzano Board of Directors will be one of the candidates proposed by the management of Suzano. See “Suzano—Management and Compensation” and “The Transaction Documents—BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement”.

Management of Fibria Following the Merger

Currently no decisions have been made to implement any changes to the management of Fibria following the completion of the Merger.

Accounting Treatment of the Merger

Under IFRS as issued by the IASB, the acquisition of the Fibria Shares will be accounted for through the application of the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total consideration paid is allocated to an acquired company’s tangible and intangible assets, liabilities and any noncontrolling interest based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date.

Shareholder Approvals Required for the Merger

Approval by the holders of Fibria Shares

The Merger requires the approval of Fibria’s shareholders. The Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting is scheduled for September 13, 2018. In order to approve the Merger, at least 50% of Fibria’s issued and outstanding voting capital must vote in favor of the Merger Proposal. See “The Fibria Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting”.

Approval by the holders of Suzano Shares

The Merger also requires the approval of Suzano’s shareholders. The Suzano extraordinary general shareholders meeting is scheduled to be held on September 13, 2018, at 9:30 am, Brasília Time (BRT), at Suzano’s head office in Salvador, State of Bahia, Brazil. At the Suzano extraordinary general shareholders meeting, our shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

• the ratification of the capital increase of Holding, in an amount equal to the redemption amount of the Holding Redeemable Preferred Shares, which will be the total amount of the cash consideration;

• the approval of the Merger Agreement;

• the ratification of the independent auditor responsible for preparing the valuation report on the net book value of Holding, for the purposes of the merger of Holding with Suzano;

• the approval of the valuation report of Holding;

• the approval of the Merger (including the merger of Holding into Suzano), as contemplated by the Merger Agreement;

• the approval of the capital increase of Suzano as a result of the merger of Holding, with the subscription, by Holding’s executive officers on behalf of Holding’s shareholders, of new shares to be issued by Suzano; and

• the amendment to Suzano’s bylaws to reflect the increase of the share capital corresponding to the issuance of the new shares, as well as to adjust the wording of the bylaws regarding Suzano’s authorized capital and regarding the maximum number of members of the Board of Directors.

We must receive the approval of at least a majority of the votes cast at our extraordinary general shareholders meeting, where at least two-thirds (2/3) of the issued share capital of Suzano is present or

76

Table of Contents

represented at the meeting, in order to complete the Merger. The Suzano Controlling Shareholders, which hold approximately 50.8% of the issued and outstanding Suzano Shares as of the date hereof, have entered into the Voting Agreement, pursuant to which they have agreed to vote in favor of the Merger at the Suzano shareholders meeting at which the Merger is presented for the approval of shareholders. Assuming quorum requirements are met and the meeting is validly held in accordance with Brazilian law, upon the exercise by the Suzano Controlling Shareholders of their voting rights in compliance with the terms of the Voting Agreement, we expect that the shareholders of Suzano will vote to approve the Merger. See “The Fibria Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting—Required Vote”.

Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger

Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, Suzano is required to submit the Merger for the review of CADE, ANEEL and ANTAQ within 45 days of March 15, 2018, which is the date of execution of the Voting Agreement, subject to any additional 60-day cure period. Even though it is mentioned in the Voting Agreement, the parties have jointly determined that the prior approval from ANEEL is not required. As of the date of this prospectus, Suzano has already submitted the Merger for review by CADE and ANTAQ. If CADE does not approve the Merger, the Merger will not be completed. If CADE imposes remedies as a condition to its approval of the Merger, or if ANTAQ does not approve the Merger, it is possible that the Merger may not be completed.

Suzano is also required to submit the Merger for consideration to the Antitrust Government Authorities of various countries in which Suzano and Fibria operate, within 60 days of the date of execution of the Voting Agreement, subject to an additional 60-day cure period. These authorities are the FTC and/or the DOJ, as applicable, in the United States of America, the European Commission in the European Union and MOFCOM in the People’s Republic of China. The implications of the restrictions required by these Antitrust Government Authorities or negotiated by Suzano with these Antitrust Government Authorities will depend on the aggregate size of the assets to be divested. More information can be found in “Regulatory Matters”.

Under Brazilian law, there are no further conditions for the completion of the Merger other than approval by holders of Fibria Shares and Suzano Shares, which will be solicited at Fibria’s and Suzano’s respective extraordinary general shareholders meetings. While the approval by the NYSE of the listing of the Suzano ADSs to be delivered in connection with the Merger, for which we will apply, must be obtained for the Suzano ADSs to be traded by their holders on the NYSE, this approval is not a condition to the completion of the Merger.

Voting by Directors and Executive Officers

As of the date hereof, the Fibria directors and executive officers have the right to vote approximately 57,413 Fibria Shares, representing 0.01% of the Fibria shares then outstanding and entitled to vote. None of the directors or executive officers of Fibria has entered into any agreements obligating them to vote in favor of the Merger Proposal.

Restrictions on Resales of Suzano Shares Received in the Merger

Suzano Shares received by holders of Fibria Shares in connection with the Merger will be registered under the Securities Act and will be freely transferable under the Securities Act, except for Suzano Shares issued to any holder of Fibria Shares who may be deemed to be an “affiliate” of Suzano for purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Persons who may be deemed to be affiliates include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with Suzano and may include Suzano’s executive officers, directors and significant shareholders. This prospectus does not cover any resales of Suzano Shares received by any person upon completion of the Merger, and no person is authorized to make use of this prospectus in connection with any such resale.

On March 27, 2018, the Fibria Board of Directors, including the independent members thereof, resolved to approve, without restrictions or reservations, the adhesion of Fibria to the Voting Agreement for the fulfillment of the obligations applicable to Fibria, and on March 29, 2018, Holding became party to the Voting Agreement, in each case as required by the agreement.

Regulatory Restrictions on the Merger

In the event one or more Antitrust Government Authorities imposes requirements or restrictions as a condition to approval of the Merger, the Voting Agreement provides for agreed parameters for any required asset divestiture. Those are:

• if the required divestiture is in respect of assets with a capacity of up to and including 1.1 million tons of Fibria’s total installed pulp production capacity, Suzano will be required to comply with the condition or offer to divest assets with such capacity as required to achieve the required regulatory approvals; and

• if the required divestiture is in respect of assets with a capacity of greater than 1.1 million tons of Fibria’s total installed pulp production capacity, Suzano will not be required to offer to divest assets with such capacity and to complete the Merger. However, in the event that Suzano decides (a) to not make an offer to comply with the restrictions, (b) to make an offer to comply with the restrictions that is not accepted by the relevant Antitrust Government Authorities, or (c) to not comply with measures unilaterally imposed by the Antitrust Government Authorities, thus preventing the completion of the Merger, then Suzano will be required to pay the Termination Fee to Fibria. For more information, see “—Effectiveness and Termination”, above.

BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement

Overview

The Voting Agreement and Other Covenants ( Acordo de Voto e Outras Avenças ) (the “ BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement ”) was entered into by the Suzano Controlling Shareholders and BNDESPAR, with Suzano as intervening party, on March 15, 2018. Pursuant to the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders and BNDESPAR agreed on certain rights and obligations of the parties with respect to their holdings of Suzano Shares and the governance of Suzano, which will take effect upon the completion of the Merger.

Policy for Appointing Independent Members of the Suzano Board of Directors

Under the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders and BNDESPAR have agreed to implement a new policy for the nomination of independent members of the Suzano Board of Directors. According to the policy, the Suzano Board of Directors must have at least two members (or 20% of its members, whichever is greater) that are independent members, as defined in the listing rules applicable to the Novo Mercado listing segment (“ Novo Mercado Listing Rules ”) and Instruction No. 461/07 of the CVM. The policy sets forth additional circumstances under which the independence of such member may be compromised, including where the member acts or has acted as an officer or an employee of Suzano, Suzano’s subsidiaries or the controlling shareholder group of Suzano. In addition, the policy requires the formation of an “eligibility committee”, which also must be majority-independent, which will evaluate and certify candidates to be nominated as independent members of the Suzano Board of Directors.

Any amendment to, or revocation of, the independent director policy requires the approval of at least 60% of the members of the Suzano Board of Directors, with at least one of the affirmative votes being cast by an independent member of the Suzano Board of Directors. The Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed to instruct the members of the Suzano Board of Directors appointed by them not to approve any change to this threshold until BNDESPAR holds Suzano Shares representing 5% or less of Suzano’s outstanding capital stock.

Subject to the completion of the Merger and to compliance with the provisions of the Brazilian Corporation Law, applicable regulations and Suzano’s bylaws, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed to instruct the members of the Suzano Board of Directors appointed by them that are not deemed independent members of the Suzano Board of Directors, pursuant to the Novo Mercado Listing Rules, to take such measures in order for the new policy to be approved by the Suzano Board of Directors within 90 days following the completion of the Merger, as well to be adopted by Suzano’s Shareholders at the first annual shareholders’ meeting at which members of the Suzano Board of Directors are elected following completion of the Merger.

BNDESPAR Right to Nominate Members of the Suzano Board of Directors

Subject to the completion of the Merger and for so long as BNDESPAR holds Suzano Shares representing at least 10% of Suzano’s capital stock, BNDESPAR will have the right to appoint one member of the Suzano Board of Directors, provided that any such proposed member must qualify as independent under the independent director policy to be adopted by Suzano following completion of the Merger. Under the independent director policy, among other restrictions, such directors may not act or have acted as an officer or employee of the company or its controlling shareholders: however, the policy does not require the member appointed by BNDESPAR to be independent from BNDESPAR. Nevertheless, Suzano has been informed by BNDESPAR that its current practice is to appoint members who can vote independently from the guidance provided by BNDESPAR. As of the date hereof, BNDESPAR is expected to hold Suzano Shares representing approximately 11.1% of Suzano’s capital stock following completion of the Merger. See “—Policy for Appointing Independent Members of the Suzano Board of Directors”. Such member may only be removed, directly or indirectly, by BNDESPAR. Within 90 days following the completion of the Merger, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders shall cause an extraordinary general shareholders meeting of Suzano to be called to decide on the appointment of the

84

Table of Contents

BNDESPAR member to the Suzano Board of Directors. Under the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed to vote in favor of the candidate proposed by BNDESPAR, subject to meeting the independence qualifications, up until (and including) the annual shareholders meeting in 2020, when the candidate proposed by BNDESPAR for election to the Suzano Board of Directors will be part of the candidates proposed by the management of Suzano.

The Suzano Controlling Shareholders may exercise their voting rights to amend Suzano’s bylaws in order to increase the maximum number of members of the Suzano Board of Directors from nine to 10. If the Suzano Controlling Shareholders opt to do so, they shall notify BNDESPAR thereof within 30 days after the completion of the Merger. BNDESPAR has agreed to exercise its voting right to approve this amendment to Suzano’s bylaws upon the receipt of such written communication.

Limitations on Indebtedness and BNDESPAR Advance Statement Rights

The BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement sets forth certain limitations regarding Suzano’s indebtedness. These limitations require Suzano to maintain a ratio of Net Debt/EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA of 3.5:1 or lower. If Suzano is not in compliance with the foregoing ratio, Suzano may not (i) approve the distribution of proceeds in an amount higher than the minimum mandatory dividend, as set forth in Suzano’s bylaws in effect on the date of execution of the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement and (ii) approve new investments for expansion or acquisitions in excess of 10% of Suzano’s Adjusted EBITDA for the prior 12 months. These requirements are applicable until the earlier of December 31, 2021 and the date on which BNDESPAR holds Suzano Shares representing 5% or less of Suzano’s outstanding capital stock.

For as long as the financial obligations set forth above remain in force, BNDESPAR shall be entitled to make a statement in advance on any proposal for the distribution of dividends or investments, in the event that the target indebtedness threshold is exceeded or would be exceeded by such distribution.

Subject to the completion of the Merger and to compliance with the provisions of the Brazilian Corporation Law, applicable regulations and Suzano’s bylaws, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed to instruct the members of the Suzano Board of Directors appointed by them to approve, and to comply with, the foregoing limitations with respect to Suzano’s indebtedness. Such obligation by the Suzano Controlling Shareholders will terminate on the earlier of December 31, 2021 and the date on which BNDESPAR holds Suzano Shares representing 5% or less of Suzano’s outstanding capital stock.

Any amendment to, or revocation of, the agreed restrictions on financial obligations requires the approval of at least 60% of the members of the Suzano Board of Directors, with at least one of the affirmative votes being cast by an independent member of the Suzano Board of Directors. The Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed to instruct the members of the Suzano Board of Directors appointed by them not to approve any change to this threshold until BNDESPAR holds Suzano Shares representing 5% or less of Suzano’s outstanding capital stock.

Socio-Environmental Policies

The Suzano Controlling Shareholders have further agreed to exercise their voting rights and to instruct the members of the Suzano Board of Directors nominated by them to maintain substantially the same socio-environmental policies and practices of Suzano and, following completion of the Merger, Fibria as those that were in force on the date of execution of the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement. This obligation will automatically terminate as soon as BNDESPAR holds Suzano Shares representing 5% or less of Suzano’s capital stock.

Lock-up – Suzano Shares

Subject to the completion of the Merger, the Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed to a lock-up period (the “ Post -Merger Suzano Share Lock -up ”) that will begin on the Closing Date and terminate on December 31, 2019, during which they are prevented from selling or otherwise transferring the Suzano Shares (or any rights related thereto), or creating liens or other encumbrances on the Suzano Shares, in each case held by them and subject to the Post-Merger Suzano Lock-up. Under the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement, the Suzano Shares subject to the Post-Merger Suzano Lock-up are the following: (i) 100% of the Suzano Shares held by Suzano Holding as of the date of the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement; and (ii) approximately 70% of the Suzano Shares held individually by David Feffer, Daniel Feffer, Jorge Feffer and Ruben Feffer as of the date of the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement.

The Post-Merger Suzano Share Lock-up does not apply to share transfers made to affiliates of the Suzano Controlling Shareholders, so long as such affiliate agrees to be bound by the Post-Merger Suzano Share Lock-up.

Lock-up – Fibria Shares

Subject to the completion of the Merger, Suzano has agreed to a lock-up period (the “ Post -Merger Fibria Share Lock -up ”) that will begin on the Closing Date and terminate on December 31, 2019, during which Suzano is prevented from selling or otherwise transferring any Fibria Shares (or any rights related thereto).

The Post-Merger Fibria Share Lock-up does not apply to any sale or transfer made in connection with a corporate reorganization of Suzano and/or Fibria involving: (i) the merger of Fibria into Suzano or the merger of Suzano into Fibria or (ii) other corporate reorganizations that result in a sale of assets by Fibria and/or Suzano in order to comply with restrictions or conditions imposed by or agreed with antitrust authorities and/or within the scope of or for the purposes of complying with the financial policy.

Effectiveness and Termination

The effectiveness of the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement is subject to the completion of the Merger. Once effective, the BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement will remain in force for as long as any of the voting and lock-up obligations of the Suzano Controlling Shareholders under the agreement, as described above, remain outstanding.

Governing Law

The BNDESPAR Shareholders Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil.

The Merger Agreement

Overview

The Merger Agreement contains the terms and conditions by which Fibria will merge with, and become a wholly owned subsidiary of, Suzano. The Merger Agreement was approved by both the Fibria Board of Directors and the Suzano Board of Directors, pursuant to Brazilian law and the provisions of Fibria’s and Suzano’s bylaws, respectively, on July 26, 2018. Both the Fibria Board of Directors and the Suzano Board of Directors have approved the execution of the Merger Agreement and the submission of the Merger Proposal to Fibria’s shareholders and Suzano’s shareholders, and the Merger Agreement was entered into by Fibria, Holding and Suzano on July 26, 2018.

Table of Contents

Structure of the Merger

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Merger will be carried out in the following steps, which will occur on the same date:

• First , Holding will effect a capital increase through the issuance of new common shares, with no par value, which will be fully subscribed and paid by Suzano, either directly or through any of its affiliates, in Brazilian reais , until the Closing Date, for the total issuance price equal to the redemption amount of the Holding Redeemable Preferred Shares, which will be the total amount of the cash consideration. To the extent that any of the Holding shares are held by an affiliate of Suzano, such shares will be transferred to Suzano on or prior to the Closing Date.

• Second , all Fibria Shares will be merged into Holding, for their economic value, resulting in the issuance by Holding of common shares (“ Holding Common Shares ”) and redeemable preferred shares (“ Holding Redeemable Preferred Shares ”) to holders of Fibria Shares. For each Fibria Share, holders of Fibria Shares will receive one Holding Common Share and one Holding Redeemable Preferred Share. This exchange ratio will be adjusted by any and all stock splits, reverse stock splits and bonus stock with respect to Fibria (but not Holding) that occur from and including March 15, 2018. Following the merger of Fibria Shares into Holding, Fibria will continue its corporate existence and will continue to own its assets and liabilities as a wholly owned subsidiary of Holding.

• Third , all Holding Redeemable Preferred Shares will be redeemed. For each Holding Redeemable Preferred Share, holders of Holding Redeemable Preferred Shares will receive R$ 52.50. Following such redemption, the Holding Redeemable Preferred Shares will be cancelled against share capital reserves.

• Fourth , Holding will be merged into Suzano. The merger of Holding into Suzano will be carried out in accordance with Holding’s book value (having taken into account the effect of the aforementioned capital increase, the merger of Fibria Shares into Holding and the redemption of Holding Redeemable Preferred Shares). Consequently, Holding will cease to exist and Suzano will succeed to all of Holding’s assets, rights and liabilities, and all Fibria shareholders will be migrated to Suzano’s shareholder base. As a result, Fibria will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Suzano.

All of the foregoing steps are part of one single transaction, and the effectiveness of each step is conditioned on each of the other steps also becoming effective. Therefore, the Merger may not be partially approved at the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting or partially implemented.

The foregoing steps are subject to the receipt of corporate approvals, including (i) the holding of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting, at which the Merger Agreement, the merger of Fibria Shares into Holding and the waiver of the mandatory tender offer provided for by article 33 of the Fibria bylaws must be approved; (ii) the holding of the Holding extraordinary general shareholders meeting, at which the Merger Agreement, the capital increase, the merger of Fibria Shares into Holding, the redemption of the Holding Redeemable Preferred Shares and the merger of Holding into Suzano will be approved, and (iii) the holding of the Suzano extraordinary general shareholders meeting, at which the Merger Agreement and the merger of Holding into Suzano will be approved. Such corporate approvals are interdependent and therefore must occur on the same date. Under the Merger Agreement, Fibria, Suzano and Holding have agreed to use best efforts to cause such meetings to be held as soon as possible and no later than 45 days following the date of declaration of effectiveness by the SEC with respect to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. See “The Fibria Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting—Purpose of the Fibria extraordinary general shareholders meeting” and “The Merger—Approval by the holders of Suzano Shares”.

Suzano intends to merge Fibria into Suzano as soon as practicable following the Merger, subject to receipt of requisite regulatory or other approvals and consents and completion of required procedures customary for such a transaction. No assurance can be given as to when or whether any of these approvals and consents will be

87

Table of Contents

obtained or when such procedures will be concluded, and, as a result, no assurance can be given as to the eventual merger of Fibria into Suzano, after which Fibria would cease to exist and all of Fibria’s rights and obligations would be succeeded to by Suzano, pursuant to Brazilian law.

The completion of the Merger is also subject to various conditions precedent. See “—Conditions Precedent to the Completion of the Merger”.

Timeline for the Merger

Following satisfaction of the conditions precedent and subsequent notice to the market, as described below, the Merger is required to be completed on the 45th day (or, if not a business day, the next following business day) following the publication of such notice. Such date is referred to herein as the Closing Date. On the business day immediately prior to the Closing Date, Suzano and Fibria will inform the market of the record date to be used to determine the holders of Fibria Shares who will receive Suzano Shares, as well as the final amount of the Cash Installment and the final exchange ratio of Suzano Shares for Fibria Shares.

If all requisite corporate approvals have been obtained, but the Merger is not completed within 18 months of March 15, 2018, and such failure to complete the Merger is due to a breach in the obligations set forth in the Merger Agreement by Fibria, Suzano or Holding, including misrepresentation, which has not been cured within 60 days of notice thereof, the non-defaulting party may terminate the Merger and file a claim for damages (if applicable).

Merger Consideration

The holders of Fibria Shares as of the record date set in accordance with the Merger Agreement will receive, for each Fibria Share held by them:

• a cash payment of R$ 52.50 (the “ Cash Installment ”). The Cash Installment (including any increase therein due to the following adjustments) will be adjusted in accordance with fluctuations in CDI from March 15, 2018 to the Closing Date. In addition, the Cash Installment will be reduced by (i) the amount of any dividends, interests on equity and other proceeds approved or paid by Fibria from and including March 15, 2018 and that have a shareholder base record date prior to and including the Closing Date and (ii) if applicable, any taxes withheld solely as a result of the redemption of the Holding Redeemable Preferred Shares. In the event that any dividends, interests on equity and other proceeds are approved or paid by Suzano from and including March 15, 2018 and have a shareholder base record date prior to and excluding the Closing Date, the amount of the Cash Installment shall be increased to reflect the amount corresponding to the dividends that Fibria shareholders would have received if the Merger had been completed prior to the date of payment of such dividend or distribution. For purposes of the foregoing adjustments, the minimum mandatory dividends (i) proposed by Fibria management on January 29, 2018 in the amount of R$ 257,750,384.59, and (ii) proposed by Suzano management on February 7, 2018 in the amount of R$ 380,114,504.56 shall be disregarded; and

• 0.4611 Suzano Shares, which amount will be adjusted by any and all stock splits, reverse stock splits and bonus stock with respect to Fibria or Suzano that occur from and including March 15, 2018.

After the Closing Date, any fractional Suzano Shares issued by Suzano will be grouped into whole numbers and sold on the open market managed by B3. The net proceeds from the sale of the fractional shares will be distributed on a pro rata basis to the former Fibria shareholders who held fractional Suzano Shares. No additional consideration in cash or in kind will be paid by Suzano to Fibria shareholders in connection with the Merger. The consideration payable to holders of Fibria Shares will be paid on the Closing Date.

As a consequence of the Merger, the capital stock of Suzano will be increased in the amount of R$ 14,745,264,887.17, from the amount of R$ 6,241,753,032.16 to the amount of R$ 20,987,017,919.33, through

88

Table of Contents

the issuance of 255,081,014 new Suzano Shares, subject to the adjustments provided for in the Merger Agreement. Based on the number of Fibria Shares issued on the date hereof, after the Merger, former Fibria shareholders will hold approximately 18.91% of the Suzano Shares outstanding.

The Suzano Shares to be issued in the Merger will have the same rights (including the right to receive dividends) as the Suzano Shares outstanding prior to the Merger, as set forth in Suzano’s bylaws ( estatuto social ).

Conditions Precedent to the Completion of the Merger

Under the Merger Agreement, the completion of the Merger will be subject to compliance with the conditions precedent set forth as follows:

• receipt of the following approvals from governmental authorities:

• approval of the Merger by the Antitrust Government Authorities; and

• approval of the Merger by ANTAQ and ANEEL, although the parties have jointly determined that prior approval from ANEEL is not required;

• compliance by each of Fibria and Suzano with their respective material obligations set forth in the Merger Agreement; and

The condition related to the absence of a Material Adverse Effect may be waived at any time in writing by Suzano. The conditions related to compliance with obligations and representations and warranties may be waived by written notice from the non-defaulting party.

After the foregoing conditions have been satisfied or waived, as applicable, any of Fibria, Suzano or Holding may notify the other parties as to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent, and the parties will then notify the market containing, at a minimum, the date on which the Merger will be completed and the date following which the Fibria Shares will no longer be listed on the B3.

Withdrawal Rights

Holders of Fibria Shares who vote against the approval of the Merger Proposal, or who do not vote on the approval of the Merger Proposal, will have withdrawal rights under the Brazilian Corporation Law. In order to exercise such withdrawal rights, holders of Fibria Shares must give notice thereof within 30 days of the publication by Fibria of the minutes of extraordinary general shareholders meeting at which the Merger Proposal is approved. Holders of Fibria ADSs will not be able to exercise withdrawal rights, even if they give instructions to the Fibria Depositary (as defined herein) to vote against the Merger Proposal. Other than the withdrawal rights described herein, holders of Fibria Shares do not have appraisal or dissenters’ rights under Brazilian law. See “The Merger—Withdrawal Rights in the Merger”.

Holders that intend to exercise their withdrawal rights must continue to hold their Fibria Shares until the Closing Date. The amount payable as reimbursement for the value of the Fibria Shares will correspond to the

As of the date of this prospectus, Suzano has submitted the Merger for review by CADE and ANTAQ. If CADE does not approve the Merger, the Merger will not be completed.

This summary describes material U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the exchange of Fibria Shares and Fibria ADSs, which we refer to as the Fibria Securities, pursuant to the Merger and to the ownership and disposition of Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs, which we refer to as the Suzano Securities, for a U.S. holder (as defined below). This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “ Code ”), as amended, its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations promulgated thereunder, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in effect. These authorities are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. In addition, this summary assumes the deposit agreements governing the Suzano ADSs, and all other related agreements, will be performed in accordance with their terms. This summary does not describe any state, local or non-U.S. tax law considerations, or any aspect of U.S. federal tax law other than income taxation; U.S. holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding such matters.

This summary is not a comprehensive discussion of all of the tax considerations that may be relevant to a U.S. holder in connection with the Merger or the ownership and disposition of Suzano Securities. In particular, this summary is directed only to U.S. holders that hold Fibria Securities and Suzano Securities as capital assets and does not address tax consequences to U.S. holders who may be subject to special tax rules, such as banks, brokers or dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities electing to mark to market, financial institutions, life insurance companies, tax exempt entities, entities that are treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes (or partners therein), holders that own or are treated as owning 10% or more of our ordinary shares, by vote or value, persons holding Fibria Securities or Suzano Securities as part of a hedging or conversion transaction or a straddle, persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, U.S. expatriates, U.S. holders that exercise withdrawal rights in connection with the Merger, and persons that acquired Fibria Securities or Suzano Securities in a compensation transaction. Moreover, this summary does not address state, local or foreign taxes, the U.S. federal estate and gift taxes, or the Medicare contribution tax applicable to net investment income of certain non-corporate U.S. holders, or alternative minimum tax consequences of acquiring, holding or disposing of Fibria Securities or Suzano Securities.

As used below, a “U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of Fibria Securities or Suzano Securities that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a citizen or individual resident of the United States or a U.S. domestic corporation or that otherwise is subject to U.S. federal income taxation on a net income basis in respect of such securities.

You should consult your own tax advisors about the consequences of the disposition of Fibria Securities pursuant to the Merger as well as the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the Suzano Securities, including the relevance to your particular situation of the considerations discussed below and any consequences arising under foreign, state, local or other tax laws.

Nature of Suzano ADSs for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes

In general, a holder of Suzano ADSs will be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as the beneficial owner of the underlying shares that are represented by those ADSs.

Merger

The exchange of Fibria Securities for Suzano Securities and cash pursuant to the Merger should constitute a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, each U.S. holder of Fibria Securities will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the cash consideration (including cash in lieu of fractional shares) and the fair market value of the Suzano Securities received therefor, pursuant to the Merger and (ii) the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Fibria Securities disposed of pursuant to the Merger.

92

Table of Contents

Provided that Fibria is not a passive foreign investment company (as defined in “—Passive Foreign Investment Company Status”, below), gain or loss will generally be treated as capital gain or loss, which will be long term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period with respect to its Fibria Securities is more than one year at the time of the Merger. Long term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. holders (including individuals) are generally eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital loss is subject to limitations. A U.S. holder’s tax basis in the Suzano Securities received pursuant to the Merger will equal the fair market value of such Suzano Securities on the date of receipt, and a U.S. holder’s holding period for such Suzano Securities will commence on the day after the date of receipt.

Gain, if any, realized by a U.S. holder on the exchange generally will be treated as U.S. source income for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Consequently, if a Brazilian withholding tax is imposed on the exchange, a U.S. holder that does not receive significant foreign source income from other sources may not be able to derive effective U.S. foreign tax credit benefits in respect of such Brazilian taxes. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of the foreign tax credit rules to their participation in the Merger.

In the case of a U.S. holder who exchanges Fibria Securities pursuant to the Merger, the cash component of the amount realized generally will be the U.S. dollar value of the reais received at the spot rate on the date of the exchange (or, if the Fibria Securities are traded on an established securities market at such time, in the case of cash basis and electing accrual basis U.S. holders, the settlement date). An accrual basis U.S. holder that does not elect to determine the amount realized using the spot exchange rate on the settlement date will recognize foreign currency gain or loss equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the amount received based on the spot exchange rates in effect on the date of the exchange and the settlement date. A U.S. holder will have a tax basis in the reais received equal to the U.S. dollar value of the reais received at the spot rate on the settlement date. Any currency gain or loss realized on the settlement date or the subsequent sale, conversion, or other (including, in the case of Fibria ADSs, a conversion by the depositary) of the reais received for a different U.S. dollar amount generally will be U.S.-source ordinary income or loss, and will not be eligible for the reduced tax rate applicable to long-term capital gains. If an accrual basis U.S. holder makes the election described in the first sentence of this paragraph, it must be applied consistently from year to year and cannot be revoked without the consent of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “ IRS ”). A U.S. holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the treatment of any foreign currency gain or loss realized with respect to reais received in exchange for Fibria Shares.

Ownership and Disposition of Suzano Securities

Taxation of Dividends

Subject to the discussion below under “—Passive Foreign Investment Company Status”, the gross amount of any distribution of cash or property with respect to Suzano Securities that is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes) will generally be includible in your taxable income as ordinary dividend income on the day on which you receive the dividend, in the case of Suzano Shares, or the date the depositary receives the dividends, in the case of Suzano ADSs, and will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code.We do not expect to maintain calculations of our earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. U.S. holders therefore should expect that distributions generally will be treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If you are a U.S. holder, dividends paid in a currency other than U.S. dollars generally will be includible in your income in a U.S. dollar amount calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the day you receive the dividends, in the case of Suzano Shares, or the date the depositary receives the dividends, in the case of Suzano ADSs. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisers regarding the treatment of foreign currency gain or loss, if any, on any foreign currency received that is converted into U.S. dollars after it is received.

93

Table of Contents

Subject to certain exceptions for short-term positions, the U.S. dollar amount of dividends received by an individual with respect to the Suzano Securities will be subject to taxation at a preferential rate if the dividends are “qualified dividends”. Dividends paid on the Suzano Securities will be treated as qualified dividends if:

• the Suzano Securities are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States; and

• we were not, in the year prior to the year in which the dividend was paid, and are not, in the year in which the dividend is paid, a passive foreign investment company (a “ PFIC ”).

Suzano will apply to list the Suzano ADSs on the NYSE, effective as of the Closing Date, and the Suzano ADSs should qualify as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States so long as they are so listed and remain so listed. As described in more detail under “—Passive Foreign Investment Company Status”, below, based on our audited financial statements and relevant market and shareholder data, we believe that we were not treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to our prior taxable year and will not be a PFIC in our current taxable year or in the foreseeable future. Holders should consult their own tax advisers regarding the availability of the reduced dividend tax rate in light of their own particular circumstances.

Because the Suzano Shares are not themselves listed on a U.S. exchange, dividends received with respect to Suzano Shares may not be treated as qualified dividends. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the potential availability of the reduced dividend tax rate in respect of Suzano Shares.

Dividend distributions with respect to Suzano Securities generally will be treated as “passive category” income from sources outside the United States for purposes of determining a U.S. holder’s U.S. foreign tax credit limitation. Subject to the limitations and conditions provided in the Code and the applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations, a U.S. holder may be able to claim a foreign tax credit against its U.S. federal income tax liability in respect of any Brazilian income taxes withheld at the appropriate rate applicable to the U.S. holder from a dividend paid to such U.S. holder. Alternatively, the U.S. holder may deduct such Brazilian income taxes from its U.S. federal taxable income, provided that the U.S. holder elects to deduct rather than credit all foreign income taxes for the relevant taxable year. The rules with respect to foreign tax credits are complex and involve the application of rules that depend on a U.S. holder’s particular circumstances. Accordingly, U.S. holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

U.S. holders that receive distributions of additional Suzano ADSs or Suzano Shares or rights to subscribe for Suzano ADSs or Suzano Shares as part of a pro rata distribution to all our shareholders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax in respect of the distributions, unless the U.S. holder has the right to receive cash or property, in which case the U.S. holder will be treated as if it received cash equal to the fair market value of the distribution.

Taxation of Dispositions of Suzano Securities

Subject to the discussion below under “—Passive Foreign Investment Company Status”, if a U.S. holder realizes gain or loss on the sale, exchange or other disposition of Suzano Securities, that gain or loss will be capital gain or loss and generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the Suzano Securities have been held for more than one year. Long—term capital gain realized by a U.S. holder that is an individual generally is subject to taxation at a preferential rate. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Gain, if any, realized by a U.S. holder on the sale or other disposition of Suzano Securities generally will be treated as U.S. source income for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Consequently, if a Brazilian withholding tax is imposed on the sale or disposition of the Suzano Securities, a U.S. holder that does not receive significant foreign source income from other sources may not be able to derive effective U.S. foreign tax credit benefits in respect of such Brazilian taxes. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of the foreign tax credit rules to their investment in, and disposition of, the Suzano Securities.

94

Table of Contents

If a U.S. holder sells or otherwise disposes of Suzano Securities in exchange for currency other than U.S. dollars, the amount realized generally will be the U.S. dollar value of the currency received at the spot rate on the date of sale or other disposition (or, if the Suzano Securities are traded on an established securities market at such time, in the case of cash basis and electing accrual basis U.S. holders, the settlement date). An accrual basis U.S. holder that does not elect to determine the amount realized using the spot exchange rate on the settlement date will recognize foreign currency gain or loss equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the amount received based on the spot exchange rates in effect on the date of the sale or other disposition and the settlement date. A U.S. holder will have a tax basis in the currency received equal to the U.S. dollar value of the currency received at the spot rate on the settlement date. Any currency gain or loss realized on the settlement date or the subsequent sale, conversion, or other disposition of the non-U.S. currency received for a different U.S. dollar amount generally will be U.S.-source ordinary income or loss, and will not be eligible for the reduced tax rate applicable to long-term capital gains. If an accrual basis U.S. holder makes the election described in the first sentence of this paragraph, it must be applied consistently from year to year and cannot be revoked without the consent of the IRS. A U.S. holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the treatment of any foreign currency gain or loss realized with respect to any currency received in a sale or other disposition of the Suzano Securities.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Status

Special U.S. tax rules apply to companies that are considered to be PFICs. Suzano will be classified as a PFIC in a particular taxable year if, either:

• 75 percent or more of our gross income for the taxable year is passive income; or

• the average percentage of the value of our assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income is at least 50 percent.

We believe, and the following discussion assumes, that we were not a PFIC for our taxable year ending December 31, 2017 and that, based on the present composition of our income and assets and the manner in which we conduct our business, we will not be a PFIC in our current taxable year or in the foreseeable future. Whether we are a PFIC is a factual determination made annually, and our status could change depending, among other things, upon changes in the composition of our gross income and the relative quarterly average value of our assets. If we were a PFIC for any taxable year in which you hold Suzano Shares or Suzano ADSs, you generally would be subject to additional taxes on certain distributions and any gain realized from the sale or other taxable disposition of the Suzano Shares or Suzano ADSs regardless of whether we continued to be a PFIC in any subsequent year, unless you elect to mark your Suzano Shares or Suzano ADSs to market for tax purposes on an annual basis. You are encouraged to consult your own tax advisor as to our status as a PFIC and the tax consequences to you of such status.

Foreign Financial Asset Reporting

Certain U.S. holders that own “specified foreign financial assets” with an aggregate value in excess of US$ 50.0 million are generally required to file an information statement along with their tax returns, currently on Form 8938, with respect to such assets. “Specified foreign financial assets” include any financial accounts held at a non-U.S. financial institution, as well as securities issued by a non-U.S. issuer that are not held in accounts maintained by financial institutions. The understatement of income attributable to “specified foreign financial assets” in excess of US$ 5.0 million extends the statute of limitations with respect to the tax return to six years after the return was filed. U.S. holders who fail to report the required information could be subject to substantial penalties. Holders are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible application of these rules, including the application of the rules to their particular circumstances.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Dividends paid on, and proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, the Fibria Securities or the Suzano Securities to a U.S. holder generally may be subject to the information reporting requirements of the Code and

95

Table of Contents

may be subject to backup withholding unless the U.S. holder provides an accurate taxpayer identification number and makes any other required certification or otherwise establishes an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a U.S. holder will be allowed as a refund or credit against the U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.

A holder that is a foreign corporation or a non-resident alien individual may be required to comply with certification and identification procedures in order to establish its exemption from information reporting and backup withholding.

Material Brazilian Tax Considerations

General

The following discussion summarizes the principal Brazilian tax consequences of the transactions described in this prospectus to a holder not deemed to be domiciled in Brazil for Brazilian tax purposes, referred to herein as a “ Non -Brazilian Holder ”. There is currently no treaty in place for the avoidance of double taxation between Brazil and the United States.

This discussion does not address all possible Brazilian tax consequences relating to the Merger and does not address all the Brazilian tax considerations that may be applicable to any particular Non-Brazilian Holder. This material does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant for analysis of particular cases. It is based on Brazilian tax legislation as in effect on the date of this filing, which is subject to change and to differing interpretations, and which may result in different tax consequences than those described below. Investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax treatment applicable to their particular investment circumstances.

Taxation on Gains – the Merger

Brazilian Law No. 10,833/03 provides that gains on the disposition of assets located in Brazil by a Non-Brazilian Holder, whether distributed to other non-residents or to Brazilian residents, are subject to Brazilian taxation. Fibria Shares are expected to be treated as assets located in Brazil, and, as a result, gains on disposition of the Fibria Shares are expected to be subject to Brazilian income tax, in accordance with Brazilian Law 13,259/16, at progressive rates ranging from 15% to 22.5% (15% for the part of the gain that does not exceed R$ 5.0 million, 17.5% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 5.0 million but does not exceed R$ 10.0 million, 20% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 10.0 million but does not exceed R$ 30.0 million and 22.5% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 30.0 million), or they may be subject to Brazilian income tax at a flat rate of 25% if the Non-Brazilian Holder is a resident of or domiciled in a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction.

There is no clear rule regarding how a disposition of ADSs will be treated under Brazilian tax law. Although arguments exist to support the view that ADSs should not fall within the definition of assets located in Brazil for the purposes of Law No. 10,833, in which case the disposition of Fibria ADSs would not be subject to Brazilian taxation, considering the general and unclear scope thereof and the lack of any definitive judicial court ruling in respect thereof, we are unable to provide any assurances that courts will agree that Fibria ADSs are not assets located in Brazil for purposes of Law No. 10,833. If ADSs are considered assets located in Brazil, gains on disposition of Fibria ADSs by a Non-Brazilian Holder to a Brazilian resident or even to a non-resident may be subject to income tax in Brazil according to the tax rules applicable to common shares, as explained above.

Taxation on Gains - Future Disposals of Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs received in the Merger

Disposal of Suzano Shares

This material does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant for the analysis of particular cases. It is based on Brazilian tax legislation as currently in effect, which

96

Table of Contents

are subject to change and to differing interpretations, which may result in different tax consequences than those described below. Investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax treatment applicable to their particular investment circumstances.

Gains realized on disposition of common shares are subject to income tax in Brazil regardless of whether the sale or the disposition is made by a Non-Brazilian Holder to a resident or person domiciled in Brazil, in accordance with the rules described below.

Under Brazilian law, income tax on such gains can vary depending on the domicile of the non-resident holder, the type of registration of the investment by the non-resident holder with the Central Bank of Brazil and how the disposition is carried out, as described below.

Gains, for purposes of taxing gains earned in a sale or disposition of common shares carried out on a Brazilian stock exchange (including transactions carried out on organized over-the-counter markets):

• are exempt from income tax when assessed on a Non-Brazilian Holder that (1) has registered its investment in Brazil with the Central Bank of Brazil under the rules of CMN Resolution No. 4,373/2014, and (2) is not a resident of or domiciled in a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction; or

• in all other cases, including gains realized by a Non-Brazilian Holder that is not a 4,373 holder and/or is a resident of or domiciled in a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction, subject to income tax at a 15.0% rate. In such cases, a withholding income tax at a rate of 0.005% will be applied and can later be offset with the eventual income tax due on the capital gain.

Gains assessed on disposition of common shares not carried out on a Brazilian stock exchange are subject to income tax at progressive rates ranging from 15.0% to 22.5% (15% for the part of the gain that does not exceed R$ 5.0 million, 17.5% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 5.0 million but does not exceed R$ 10.0 million, 20% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 10.0 million but does not exceed R$ 30.0 million and 22.5% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 30.0 million), except for Non-Brazilian Holders resident of or domiciled in a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction which would be subject to income tax at a flat rate of 25.0%. In case such gains are related to transactions conducted on the Brazilian non-organized over-the-counter market with intermediation, the withholding income tax of 0.005% shall also be applicable and can be offset with the eventual income tax due on the capital gain.

For Brazilian purposes, as of January 2009, a “ No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction ” is considered a regime: (i) which does not impose income tax or does so at a rate of 20.0% or lower, or (ii) where applicable local legislation imposes restrictions on the disclosure of the composition of shareholders, the ownership of investments or on the ultimate beneficiary of the income derived from transactions carried out and attributable to a Non-Brazilian Holder. A regulation issued by the Brazilian tax authorities on November 28, 2014 (Ordinance 488, of 2014) decreased this minimum threshold from 20.0% to 17.0% for certain specific cases. The 17.0% threshold applies only to countries and regimes aligned with international standards of fiscal transparency. Under Brazilian law, the aforementioned commitment to international standards of fiscal transparency is present if the relevant jurisdiction (i) has entered into (or concluded the negotiation of) an agreement or convention authorizing the exchange of information for tax purposes with Brazil and (ii) is committed to the actions discussed in international forums on tax evasion in which Brazil has been participating, such as the Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information. Nevertheless, as of the date of this filing, there has been no amendment to Normative Ruling No. 1,037/2010 to reflect such threshold modification. See “—Discussion of No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdictions”.

In the case of redemption of securities or capital reduction by a Brazilian corporation, such as ourselves, the difference between the amount effectively received by the Non-Brazilian Holder and the corresponding acquisition basis cost is treated, for tax purposes, if positive, as a capital gain derived from disposition of

97

Table of Contents

common shares not carried out on a Brazilian stock exchange. It is therefore subject to income tax at the progressive rates of 15.0% to 22.5% or to the flat rate of 25.0%, as the case may be.

There is no assurance that the current preferential treatment for holders of ADSs and Non-Brazilian Holders of common shares under CMN Resolution No. 4,373/2014 will not be changed in the future. Reductions in the rate of tax provided for by Brazil’s tax treaties usually do not apply to the tax on gains realized on sales or exchange of common shares, except in relation to the tax treaty signed between Brazil and Japan, Article 12 (3) of which attributes exclusive taxing rights over capital gains to the state of residence.

Sale of Suzano ADSs by Non-Brazilian Holders

Gains realized outside Brazil by a Non-Brazilian Holder on the disposition of ADSs should not be subject to Brazilian tax. As mentioned above, pursuant to Law No. 10,833/2003, the disposition of assets located in Brazil by a Non-Brazilian Holder, whether to another Non-Brazilian Holder or rather to Brazilian holders, may become subject to taxation in Brazil. Although we believe that the ADSs should not fall within the definition of assets located in Brazil for the purposes of Law No. 10,833, based on the fact that the ADSs are issued and registered abroad, considering the general and unclear scope of Law No. 10,833and the lack of any controlling judicial court ruling in respect thereto, we are unable to predict whether such understanding will ultimately prevail in Brazilian courts.

In the event that the ADSs are considered assets located in Brazil, gains on disposition of ADSs by a Non-Brazilian Holder to a Brazilian resident or non-Brazilian may be subject to income tax in Brazil according to the rules described below for ADSs or the tax rules applicable to common shares, as applicable.

Exchange of Suzano ADSs for common shares

Although there is no clear regulatory guidance, the withdrawal of ADSs in exchange for common shares should not be subject to Brazilian income tax, to the extent the argument prevails that ADSs do not fall within the definition of assets located in Brazil for the purposes of Law No. 10,833, as described above.

Upon receipt of the underlying common shares in exchange for ADSs, Non-Brazilian Holders may also elect to register with the Central Bank of Brazil the U.S. dollar amount of such preferred shares or common shares as a foreign portfolio investment under Resolution No. 4,373/2014 or as a foreign direct investment under Law No. 4,131/1962.

Exchange of common shares for Suzano ADS

With respect to the deposit of common shares in exchange for ADSs, the difference between the acquisition cost of the common shares and the market price of the common shares may be subject to Brazilian income tax at progressive rates ranging from 15.0% to 22.5% (15% for the part of the gain that does not exceed R$ 5.0 million, 17.5% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 5.0 million but does not exceed R$ 10.0 million, 20% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 10.0 million but does not exceed R$ 30.0 million and 22.5% for the part of the gain that exceeds R$ 30.0 million) or to a flat rate of 25%, in case the Non-Brazilian Holder is a resident of or domiciled in a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction. In some circumstances, there may be arguments to claim that this taxation is not applicable in the case of a Non-Brazilian Holder that is a 4,373 Holder and is not a resident in a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction.

Discussion of No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdictions

On June 24, 2008, Law No. 11,727/2008 was enacted, defining the concept of a “privileged tax regime” in connection with transactions subject to transfer pricing and thin capitalization rules. Under this definition, privileged tax regimes are defined by a more rigorous standard than low-tax jurisdictions. A “privileged tax

98

Table of Contents

regime” is considered to be a jurisdiction which: (i) does not tax income or taxes income at a maximum rate lower than 20.0%; (ii) grants tax advantages to non-resident entities or individuals (a) without requiring substantial economic activity in the jurisdiction of such non-resident entity or individual or (b) to the extent such non-resident entity or individual does not conduct substantial economic activity in the jurisdiction of such non-resident entity or individual; (iii) does not tax income generated abroad, or imposes tax on income generated abroad at a maximum rate lower than 20.0%; or (iv) restricts disclosure about ownership of assets, ownership rights or economic transactions.

On June 7, 2010, the Brazilian Tax Authorities enacted Normative Ruling No. 1,037, as amended, listing (i) the countries and jurisdictions considered to be No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction and (ii) the privileged tax regimes.

On November 28, 2014, the Ministry of Finance issued Ordinance No. 488 which reduced the rate threshold from 20% to 17% if the relevant jurisdiction has committed to adopt international standards on tax transparency.

Notwithstanding the fact that the “privileged tax regime” concept was enacted in connection with Brazilian transfer pricing and thin capitalization rules, there is no assurance that Brazilian tax authorities will not attempt to apply the concept of privileged tax regimes to other types of transactions, such as investments in the Brazilian financial and capital markets. Currently, the understanding of the Brazilian tax authorities is that the rate of 15% withholding of income tax applies to payments made to beneficiaries resident in Privileged Tax Regimes (Answer to Advance Tax Ruling Request COSIT n. 575, of December 20, 2017). In any case, if Brazilian tax authorities determine that payments made to a Non-Brazilian Holder under a Privileged Tax Regime are subject to the same rules applicable to payments made to a Non-Brazilian Holder located in a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction, the withholding of tax applicable to such payments could be assessed at a rate of up to 25%.

We recommend that prospective investors consult their own tax advisors for more thorough analysis of whether they could face any possible tax consequences from Law No. 11,727/2008.

Taxation of the Ownership of Suzano Shares and Suzano ADSs

Taxation of Dividends

As a result of the tax legislation adopted on December 26, 1995, dividends based on profits generated after January 1, 1996, including dividends paid in kind, which are payable by us in respect of common shares or ADSs, are exempt from withholding income tax. Dividends relating to profits generated prior to January 1, 1996 may be subject to Brazilian withholding income tax at varying rates, depending on the year the profits were generated.

Beginning in 2008, Brazilian accounting rules were significantly modified in order to align them with IFRS. After the issuance of new rules to this end, a transitory tax regime ( regime tributário de transição ), or RTT, was created in large part to ensure the neutrality of the new accounting rules in connection with the calculation and payment of corporate taxes on income. Thus, according to the RTT, solely for purposes of calculating their taxable profit, Brazilian companies had to use the accounting rules and criteria that existed until December 2007.

As a result of the application of the RTT, the accounting profit of a Brazilian company might be significantly higher (or lower) than its taxable profit. Although this specific matter has not been expressly regulated by law, the Brazilian tax authorities issued a normative instruction stating that the amount of dividends paid in excess of the profit of a company determined as per the accounting rules and criteria that existed until December 2007 should be subject to taxation.

On April 14, 2014, Law No. 12,973 was issued to, among other issues, terminate the transitory tax regime (RTT) and regulate how corporate taxable income should be assessed taking as a starting point the accounting

99

Table of Contents

profit calculated according to the new accounting rules introduced in 2008. Law No. 12,973 states that dividends related to all accounting profits generated between January 2008 and December 31, 2013 in excess of the established methods and criteria in force on December 31, 2007, are not subject to withholding tax, and does not integrate the calculation of income tax and social contribution on net profits. With respect to 2014, the law is unclear, but tax authorities state that dividends paid in excess of the profit of a company determined as per the accounting rules and criteria that existed until December 2007 should be subject to withholding income tax at the rate of 15.0%, or 25.0% if the Non-Brazilian Holder is a resident of or domiciled in a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction. As of 2015, in light of the termination of the RTT, there would be no difference between accounting and taxable profit, so that dividends generated since 2015 should be fully paid and not subject to any Brazilian withholding tax.

Interest Attributed to Shareholders’ Equity

According to Brazilian laws and our bylaws, we may opt to distribute income as interest attributed to shareholders’ equity as an alternative to the payment of dividends.

Distribution of an interest on own capital charge attributed to shareholders’ equity (with respect to common shares or ADSs) is subject to Brazilian withholding income tax at the rate of 15.0%, or 25.0% in case of a No Taxation or Low Taxation Jurisdiction holder.

Such payments, subject to certain limitations and requirements, are deductible for Brazilian income tax purposes. This interest is limited to the daily pro rata variation of the Federal Government’s long-term interest rate, as determined by the Central Bank of Brazil from time to time, and cannot exceed the greater of:

(a) 50.0% of net income (after the social contribution on net profits, and before the provision for corporate income tax and the amounts attributable to shareholders as interest on net equity) for the period with respect to which the payment is made; or

(b) 50.0% of the sum of retained earnings and earnings reserves as of the date of the beginning of the period with respect to which the payment is made.

Tax on foreign exchange transactions (“ IOF/Exchange ”)

Pursuant to Decree No. 6,306/2007, dated December 14, 2007, as amended, or Decree No. 6,306/2007, the conversion of Brazilian currency into foreign currency (e.g., for purposes of paying dividends and interest) and the conversion of foreign currency into Brazilian currency may be subject to the tax on foreign exchange transactions (the “ IOF/Exchange Tax ”). Currently, for most exchange transactions, the rate of IOF/Exchange Tax is 0.38%. However, exchange transactions carried out to bring a foreign investor’s funds (including a Non-Brazilian Holder’s funds, as applicable) into Brazil for investments in the Brazilian financial and capital market are subject to IOF/Exchange Tax at a 0% rate. The IOF/Exchange Tax rate will also be 0% for the outflow of funds from Brazil related to these types of investments, including payments of dividends and interest on shareholders’ equity and the repatriation of funds invested in the Brazilian market.

The Brazilian federal government may increase the rate of the IOF/Exchange Tax to a maximum of 25.0% of the amount of the foreign exchange transaction at any time, but such an increase would not apply retroactively.

Tax on transactions involving bonds and securities (“ IOF/Bonds Tax ”)

The Brazilian tax on financial operations (or “ IOF ”) may also be imposed on any transactions involving bonds and securities, including those carried out on Brazilian futures and commodities stock exchanges. As a general rule, the rate of this tax for transactions involving common shares or ADSs is currently zero. The executive branch, also by a Presidential Decree, may increase the IOF rate by up to 1.5% per day, but only with respect to future transactions.

INFORMATION ABOUT SUZANO

History and Development

We are incorporated under the laws of Brazil under the name Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A., as a corporation with unlimited duration. We have the legal status of a sociedade por ações , or a stock corporation, under the Brazilian Corporation Law. Our principal place of business is located at Avenida Brigadeiro Faria Lima, 1355, 8th floor, São Paulo, SP, 01452-919, Brazil (telephone: +55 11 3503-9000). Our website address is http://ir.suzano.com.br. Investor information can be found on our website under the caption of “Investor Relations”. Information contained on our website is, however, not incorporated by reference in, and should not be considered a part of this registration statement.

Our activities began in 1924, when Leon Feffer, our founder, first entered the paper business to resell national and imported paper used for business cards, writing pads and stationery. In the late 1930s, with the purchase of its first machine, the Suzano Group began to produce its own paper. In the 1950s, Companhia Suzano was formed, becoming what we believe to be the first global industrial-scale producer of eucalyptus pulp. In the mid-1960s, Companhia Suzano became the first paper producer to use 100% eucalyptus pulp in the production of printing and writing paper, according to “The History of the Pulp and Paper Industry in Brazil” (“ A História da Indústria de Celulose e Papel no Brasil ”), published by the Brazilian Technical Association of Paper and Pulp ( Associação Brasileira Técnica de Papel e Celulose ), or the ABTCP, in 2004.

On December 8, 1987, we were incorporated under the name Bahia Sul Celulose S.A., or Bahia Sul, as a joint venture between Companhia Vale do Rio Doce - CVRD (currently Vale S.A.), or Vale, and Companhia Suzano. In 2001, Companhia Suzano acquired all of the shares of Bahia Sul that were previously held by Vale, increasing its ownership interest to 100% of our voting stock and 73% of our total stock. In 2002, Companhia Suzano held an exchange offer of preferred shares without voting rights issued by Bahia Sul for new preferred shares without voting rights issued by us, in order to acquire all outstanding preferred shares of Bahia Sul. Upon completion of the exchange offer, Companhia Suzano’s share in Bahia Sul’s capital stock increased to 93.9%.

In 2004, Companhia Suzano merged into Bahia Sul, with the resulting entity named Suzano Bahia Sul Papel e Celulose S.A. In the same year, we listed our shares on the Level 1 segment of the BM&FBOVESPA, thus guaranteeing transparency in our operations and accountability to our shareholders. In July 2006, our corporate name was changed to our current name, Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A.

In 2012, we completed a R$ 1.5 billion capital increase through a public offering of new shares in the market. The proceeds of the capital increase were used, in part, to finance the construction of our new pulp production unit in the state of Maranhão, which began operations in March 2013.

In 2015, we announced a new three-pillar business strategy: structural competitiveness, adjacent businesses and reshaping the industry. As part of our structural competitiveness strategy, we announced investments to modernize and increase the capacity of our mills and to increase and locate the forest base closer to our mills. In addition to an expected increase in total production capacity, we believe that these projects have been contributing to an approach focused on cost structure optimization. Our adjacent businesses strategy seeks new uses of our asset base and diversification of our products. In 2015, we commenced the production of fluff pulp and announced investments in lignin and the tissue segment. As part of our strategy to reshape the industry, we explore new paths and seek opportunities for reducing our business exposure to market volatility.

In September, 2017, we approved the admission of our shares for trading on the listing segment called Novo Mercado of B3, followed by the conversion of the preferred shares issued by us into common shares at the ratio of one preferred share, class “A” or class “B”, for one common share. In addition, we also approved the restatement of our bylaws to adapt them to Novo Mercado rules and a change of our methodology to calculate mandatory dividends, also reflecting best corporate governance practices. We concluded the migration to Novo Mercado segment of B3 in November 2017.

Industry

Pulp can be either recycled or virgin pulp. Recycled pulp is made from used materials such as printing and writing papers, newsprint, packaging and other types of carton board. Virgin pulp can be manufactured from a number of raw materials, such as wood, bagasse and bamboo, and it is classified based on the type of wood or fiber derived from the corresponding raw material as well as the processing system used and whether the pulp will be bleached. Bleached pulp is used for several purposes, including printing and writing, specialty and tissue papers. Unbleached pulp has a brown color and is used in the production of packages, corrugated board, paperboard, packaging papers and bags.

The most common raw material that we use to produce paper is wood pulp. Different tree species yield different fiber characteristics and, consequently, different paper attributes such as strength, softness and opacity.

There are two types of wood pulp: hardwood pulp and softwood pulp. Hardwood pulp is produced using hardwood trees, such as eucalyptus, aspen, birch and acacia, which have shorter fibers and are generally better suited to manufacture coated and uncoated printing and writing paper, tissue paper, specialty papers such as image paper, décor laminate paper as well as packaging paperboard. Short fibers are generally best suited for the manufacture of wood-free paper with good printability, smoothness, brightness and uniformity. Softwood pulp is produced using softwood trees, such as pine, spruce and fir, and it is used to manufacture papers that require greater durability and strength, such as kraftliner, newsprint, catalogues, boards and lightweight coated paper.

Pulp can be produced by integrated paper producers companies or by market pulp producers who sell the pulp to non-integrated or semi-integrated paper producers. In 2016, approximately 36% of global pulp virgin fiber production was “market pulp”; that is, pulp sold by pulp mills and bought by paper mills (Hawkins Wright—The Outlook for Market Pulp (August 2017)). This percentage is increasing expansion of market pulp producers, such as Suzano. We produce only hardwood pulp from our renewable forests of planted eucalyptus trees. Eucalyptus pulp is widely accepted among producers of printing and writing paper and tissue papers worldwide because of its properties, and it has represented an increasing percentage of the world production of hardwood pulp. Moreover, eucalyptus trees have a shorter growth cycle than other hardwood trees (seven years in Brazil), higher yield productivity per planted hectare and normally only require a small amount of space between them to grow.

Business

Overview

We believe we are one of the largest vertically integrated producers of pulp and paper in Latin America. We operate mainly in the pulp (paper grade and fluff) and paper (paperboard and printing and writing) segments, and we have over 90 years of experience in the pulp and paper industry.

We are the second largest producer of eucalyptus pulp in the world and the fifth largest producer of market pulp in the world, according to Hawkins Wright. We believe we are one of Brazil’s largest paper producers, and based on data from the Brazilian Tree Industry Association ( Indústria Brasileira de Árvores ) (“ IBÁ ”), we accounted for nearly 38% of the printing and writing paper and 26% of the paperboard produced in Brazil in 2017.

Our structure includes administrative offices in Salvador and São Paulo, two integrated pulp and paper production facilities in the state of São Paulo (Suzano and Limeira Units), a non-integrated paper production facility in the state of São Paulo (Rio Verde Unit), an integrated pulp, paper and tissue facility in the state of

108

Table of Contents

Bahia (Mucuri Unit), an integrated pulp and tissue facility in the state of Maranhão (Imperatriz Unit), and FuturaGene, a biotechnology research and development subsidiary. We own one of the largest distribution structures for paper and graphic products in South America.

Our eucalyptus pulp production satisfies 100% of our requirements for paper production, and we sell the remaining production as market pulp. As of December 31, 2017, our total eucalyptus pulp installed production capacity was 4.6 million tons per year, and our total sales volume was 4.8 million tons, of which 3.6 million tons were sold as market pulp and the remainder was used for the production of 1.2 million tons of paper and paperboard.

In 2015, we announced a R$ 30 million investment to adapt one of the printing and writing machines in the Suzano Unit for the production of fluff pulp, and, as a result, we believe we became a pioneer in the use of hardwood for the production of this type of pulp. Operations started in December 2015, and we have the flexibility to produce up to 100,000 tons of either fluff pulp or printing and writing paper.

The scale of our production capacity, the proximity of our planted forests to our mills and the integration of our pulp and paper production process allow us to benefit from substantial economies of scale and low production costs. Our Limeira, Suzano and Rio Verde Units are primarily focused on the domestic market and are located near the City of São Paulo, the largest consumer market in Brazil according to data from IBÁ and RISI, Inc., an information provider for the global forest products industry (“RISI”), located approximately 90 km from the Port of Santos, an important export hub, and approximately 190 km from our planted forests. Our Mucuri Unit is focused primarily on export markets, and is located approximately 320 km from the Port of Vitória, approximately 250 km from Portocel, a port specialized in exporting pulp and paper located in the State of Espírito Santo, and approximately 74 km from our planted forests. The Imperatriz Unit, in Maranhão, is also focused primarily on export markets and is located approximately 600 km from the Port of Itaqui and approximately 184 km from our planted forests. Exports are carried from the unit to the port by rail, allowing for very competitive transportation costs. The relatively short distances between our planted forests, our mills and most of our domestic customers or export facilities provide us with relatively low transportation costs, which in turn results in lower total production costs.

Our shares are traded on the special listing segment of the B3 (Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão), which demands high levels of corporate governance.

We make statements in this registration statement about a number of estimates, including market estimates, historical and predicted characteristics of several types of products, sales in the pulp and paper industry, and our competitive position and market share in the pulp and paper industry in Brazil and abroad. Information on the Brazilian and international pulp and paper industry and market presented herein is based on reports prepared by the independent consulting firms Hawkins Wright Ltd., or Hawkins Wright; Jaakko Pöyry NLK Inc., or Pöyry; Pulp and Paper International; and publications and information disclosed by IBÁ, the PPPC, and RISI.

Our Corporate Structure

The following shows our corporate structure as of April 30, 2018.

Following the Merger, Fibria will become our direct wholly owned subsidiary. As described herein, we intend to merge Fibria into Suzano as soon as practicable following the completion of the Merger, subject to receipt of the requisite regulatory and other approvals and completion of required procedures customary for such a transaction.

Pulp and Paper

We produce a variety of eucalyptus pulp and paper products, including pulp used in our paper production processes, as well as market pulp. We sell pulp to the domestic market and to the export market. We produce coated and uncoated printing and writing paper, paperboard, tissue paper, market pulp and fluff pulp. Within the printing and writing paper category, we produce products of different sizes and shapes, such as cut paper for general purposes (cut-size), folio size and reels. Our sales are not concentrated in any specific customer, in either the domestic or the export markets. For the year ended December 31, 2017, no single customer accounted for more than 15.0% of our consolidated net sales revenue.

Pulp and Paper Production Process

We have a three-stage paper production process: (i) planting and harvesting forests; (ii) pulp manufacturing; and (iii) paper manufacturing. Consistent with our strategy of conducting our business in accordance with the highest environmental standards, we use plantation and harvesting techniques that are environmentally friendly, such as minimum-impact cultivation and soil preparation techniques that avoid erosion and maintain more humidity in the soil, which promote high levels of efficiency and productivity.

Planting and Harvesting Forests

The development of our planted forests starts in our nurseries, where we use the most modern cloning technology available, and in third-party nurseries that use our genetic materials. The saplings we produce in our

110

Table of Contents

nurseries are a variety of eucalyptus that increases the production of pulp and are well suited for the climate and other geographic aspects of the micro-regions in which they will be planted. A harvester is used to cut, de-limb and de-bark the trees, and to cut them into logs. Part of the bark and leaves of the harvested trees is left in the planted forests. A forwarder carries the logs to the edge of the planting area, where a loader loads the logs onto a truck for transportation to the mill.

The management of our forests is the base that sustains our business, based on the planting and management of renewable forests, targeting of a competitive supply of wood through long-term planning and development and application of genetic improvements. As of December 31, 2017, we owned or leased approximately 1.2 million hectares of land, of which approximately 587 thousand hectares were used for eucalyptus cultivation and the balance for forestry reserves, ensuring compliance with Brazilian law that determines the percentage of area required for legal and permanent preservation reserves, located mainly along the rivers. Our production units are in compliance with or exceed environmental standards – both Brazilian and international – for the production of pulp and paper.

Given the high degree of integration between the production of pulp and paper, we have a low conversion cost of pulp to paper.

Several factors account for our competitive advantage with regard to the cost of wood for the production of pulp: favorable topographic, climate and soil conditions in the regions of Brazil where we operate; advanced genetic improvement and harvesting technology; low average distances between our planted forests and mills, which are among the shortest in the world; our clone selection system, which improves our forests’ yield and industrial performance, integrating our forestry and industrial activities; and our advanced techniques to maximize soil potential, such as mosaic plantation and minimum environmental impact cultivation techniques. Together, these factors enable us to enjoy: a high and increasing average volume of wood per planted hectare; a higher concentration of fibers per ton of harvested wood; the sustainable development of our operations; relatively low operating costs; and eucalyptus tree harvest rotations of approximately seven years, a period shorter than the harvest rotation periods in other regions of the world.

Pulp Manufacturing

The pulp manufacturing process takes place in two stages:

The “Kraft” Cooking Process. The logs received in our pulp mills are further de-barked, if necessary, and fed through chipping machines. The wood chips are then transferred by a conveyor system to the digester where they are “cooked” with sodium sulphate and caustic soda. This “kraft” cooking process is known for minimizing damage to the pulp fibers, thereby preserving their uniformity and strength. During the cooking process, the cellulose fibers are separated from lignin and resins to produce unbleached pulp. In a pre-bleaching stage, the unbleached pulp is then washed and subjected to an oxygen delignification process that, combined with the kraft process, removes approximately 95.0% of the lignin. At this point, a small portion of the pulp fiber that was produced is used to make certain types of paperboard. The lignin and by-products of the kraft process form a substance known as “black liquor” and are separated and piped to evaporators, to increase the concentration of solids. Thereafter, the black liquor is sent to recovery boilers. In the recovery boilers, the black liquor is used as fuel to produce steam and electricity for the production process, and approximately 99.0% of the chemicals used in the kraft cooking process are recovered for reuse.

Bleaching. The next stage in manufacturing bleached pulp is the chemical bleaching process. Our current bleaching complex consists of a series of medium-density bleaching towers through which the delignified pulp passes. Each bleaching tower contains a different mixture of bleaching agents. Production of conventional bleached pulp employs a process that utilizes chlorine, chlorine-dioxide and caustic soda, while our elemental chlorine free bleaching process does not use elemental chlorine. At the end of this stage, the bleached pulp, still in its liquid state, is transferred to storage towers. Thereafter, the bleached pulp may be transferred directly to our

111

Table of Contents

paper production facilities in our Mucuri, Suzano and Limeira Units, by truck to our Rio Verde Unit or, in the case of market pulp, to drying machines where the pulp will be dried, molded into sheets, cut and baled.

Paper Manufacturing

We produce (i) uncoated woodfree printing and writing paper at our Mucuri Unit, Limeira Unit, Suzano Unit and Rio Verde Unit; (ii) coated woodfree printing and writing paper at our Suzano Unit and Limeira Unit; and (iii) paperboard at our Suzano Unit. We start the paper production process by sending the pulp to refiners, which increases the fibers’ resistance. The pulp slurry is then fed into the paper mill, where it is mixed with fillers and additives to provide the necessary properties required by the end users. These additives include synthetic sizing, precipitated calcium carbonate (the alkaline process), optical dyes, and others. During the paper and paperboard production process, the sheet is formed, pressed and dried. At the end of the process, jumbo rolls are converted into reels, folio sheets and cut-size paper. In the case of coated paper, the paper is subjected to further treatments, including coating one or both sides of the paper with ink, depending on the type of product and finishing, before being cut to the specifications of the customer or the converter.

We monitor production through a computerized system, which controls each stage of the production process. Our production, marketing and sales personnel manage the programming and control of our paper production process. In this manner, we are able to plan, optimize and customize different product runs and to anticipate, respond and adapt to seasonal variations and customer preferences.

Pulp and Paper Production Schedule

Our integrated pulp and paper mills operate three shifts, 24 hours a day, every day of the year, with the exception of scheduled maintenance periods. The dates of these maintenance periods are flexible and may be moved as a result of factors such as production, market conditions and supply of materials. We keep an inventory of certain spare parts that we consider critical to the production process or that are difficult to replace. We have also developed a close relationship with our suppliers to ensure access to spare parts.

Pulp Production and Sales

Pulp Production

We produce eucalyptus pulp to supply our paper production operations and for sale as market pulp. We produced 3.5 million tons, 3.5 million tons and 3.4 million tons of market pulp in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our pulp production in the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 accounted for 18.2%, 18.5% and 19.6%, respectively, of the total pulp produced in Brazil during these periods, according to IBÁ.

The following table sets forth our total eucalyptus pulp production, total Brazilian pulp production and our eucalyptus pulp production as a percentage of total Brazilian pulp production for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015.

Pulp Customers

We have long-term relationships with substantially all of our market pulp customers in the domestic and export markets. On average, our contracts with these customers have a three-year term. Our sales contracts typically provide for the sale of our market pulp at prices announced each month, based on the prices announced by several independent suppliers of eucalyptus pulp in Brazil (including us), Chile and Europe.

These prices may vary among the different geographic regions in which our customers are located. Usually the price arrangements under our sales contracts are consistent with prices for our other sales within the same region. Our sales contracts provide for early termination in the event of a material breach, insolvency of one of the parties or a force majeure event of an extended duration.

Our customers generally purchase our products using commercial credit provided by us. We have a diversified customer base for our pulp products We believe we have a good knowledge base to manage our credit risk portfolio through financial (letters of credit and insurance) and non-financial instruments (guarantees).

Paper Production and Sales

We sell our paper products in Brazil and abroad. The markets we seek to serve are large and very competitive. Although price is very important in these markets, we believe that customers that have high-quality standards prefer our products due to the value and quality our paper imparts to their final products. This preference is shared among customers of all segments, from producers of notebooks and non-promotional materials, to more sophisticated customers, such as producers of promotional materials, high-quality packaging, food packaging and art books.

Forest products, such as pulp and paper products, are typically cyclical. Changes in inventories are usually important in price determination. Furthermore, paper demand depends largely on general economic conditions, since production capacity slowly adjusts to changes in demand. Therefore, we can expect seasonal changes in paper net revenues in Brazil depending on such factors. Changes in production capacity may also affect prices. In Brazil, specifically, paper demand increases in the second half of the year, mainly due to the production of notebooks and books for the beginning of a new school year, which begins in February, and governmental programs such as the National Didactic Book Program ( Programa Nacional do Livro Didático ).

Compared to the pulp market, the market for paper has a larger number of producers and consumers and greater product differentiation. Although the price of paper is cyclical and historically tied to the price of pulp, with a slight time difference, it is generally considered less volatile than the price of pulp. The main factors affecting the price of paper are economic activity, ability to expand production and fluctuation in exchange rates.

Nevertheless, seasonality has not caused significant impacts on us over the last three years. For this reason, we do not measure the impacts of seasonality in our results.

Raw Materials

The principal raw materials used in pulp and paper production are described below.

Wood

We use fibers from three primary sources for the production of our paper: (i) our pulp; (ii) recycled paper; and (iii) mechanical pulp. Recycled paper and mechanical pulp are used in the interior layers of certain types of paperboard. We use eucalyptus trees for the production of all of our pulp.

Table of Contents

The management of our planted forests is a key resource for wood. As of December 31, 2017, we owned or leased a total of approximately 1.2 million hectares of land in the States of Bahia, Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, Tocantins, Pará, Piauí, Maranhão and São Paulo.

Recycled Paper and Mechanical Pulp

Pre- and post-consumption recycled paper and mechanical pulp are used in the production of the interior layers of certain types of paperboard. Recycled paper is also the raw material used in the production of our Reciclato ® paper, which, when production began in 2001, was the first recycled uncoated printing and writing paper produced on an industrial scale in Brazil. In 2017, 71.0% of revenue from paper sales came from domestic sales.

Energy

We use several sources of energy. Our primary source of energy, steam, is derived from our pulp and paper production process and is generated by burning black liquor in the recovery boiler. See “—Pulp and Paper Production Process—Pulp”. A secondary source of energy, also derived from our pulp and paper production process, involves the burning of wood waste (bark and thin wood) in auxiliary boilers. Our auxiliary boilers can also generate energy by burning natural gas and oil.

We aim to reduce our energy consumption and increase our self-sufficiency. At our Mucuri Unit and our Imperatriz Unit, we produce 100% of the energy consumed, mostly by means of renewable sources including wood waste reuse. This is possible because of the kraft chemical recovery process adopted in our mills, which allows us to recover chemicals used in the pulp production process and to use the wood residues from wood cooking to generate power. See “—Pulp Manufacturing—The “Kraft” Cooking Process”. At a later stage, the chemical recovery process is completed with quicklime that along with sodium sulphate and caustic soda form green liquor and white liquor, which is then reapplied to the wood cooking process with minimum make up. Therefore, our chemical recovery process allows us to generate power in an environmentally friendly manner.

In 2014, we began the production of energy for exportation at the Mucuri Unit though optimization of steam generation in boilers. This additional volume, added to the surplus energy generated by the Maranhão Unit, almost meets our demand for energy for our paper factories. The missing volume is purchased on the energy market in long and short-term contracts according to our strategy and price attractiveness.

Chemicals

A variety of chemicals, including sodium sulphate, sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), sodium chlorate, chloride, hydrogen peroxide and oxygen, are utilized in the paper production process, mainly in the pulp production phase. In the production of coated paper, we use various additives, primarily kaolin, calcium carbonate, latex, starch, bleaches and binders. The chemicals used in the pulp production process are recovered and recycled within our pulp mills.

All chemical waste is treated in order to conform to the most current standards and practices of the pulp and paper industry worldwide. The chemicals used in the pulp and paper industry are commonly used in a variety of other industrial activities and do not present a uniquely hazardous threat. Notwithstanding this fact, we strictly adhere to all safety rules and regulations related to the transport, storage and production of chemical products. In addition, we maintain an insurance policy to cover liability in the event of an accident in the transportation, storage or production of chemical products.

Transportation

An important component of our competitive position is our low transportation costs, particularly with respect to: (i) the cost of transporting logs from our planted forests to the pulp mills and (ii) the cost of

115

Table of Contents

transporting pulp and paper to the consumer market. In the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, logistics costs accounted for 14.9%, 14.4% and 14.0% of our cost of goods sold, respectively.

Our scale of production, the proximity of our planted forests to our pulp mills and our planted forests in relation to our factories and the integration of the processes of pulp and paper production give us substantial economies of scale and lower production costs. Our Suzano and Rio Verde Units, in the State of São Paulo, are strategically located near our major customers for paper products and approximately 90 kilometers from the Port of Santos, and are located at an average distance of 190 kilometers from our planted forests. Our Limeira Unit also has these advantages. Our Mucuri Unit, which primarily services the external market, is strategically located at an average distance of 74 kilometers from our planted forests and is approximately 250 kilometers from Portocel, a port that specializes in the exportation of paper and pulp, and approximately 320 kilometers from the Port of Vitória. The Imperatriz Unit, in Maranhão, which also primarily services the external market, is located approximately 600 kilometers from the port of Itaqui, and the associated planted forests are located an average of 184 kilometers from the port. The proximity of our forests, factories, domestic clients and ports allows us to enjoy relatively low transportation costs, which, in turn, provides a competitive cost structure for exports.

Marketing and Distribution

We have our own sales teams for our pulp and paper business units, which sell our products in both the domestic and international markets, to final consumer or distribution intermediaries. We sell our products in both the domestic and export markets. In the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015, 69.5%, 66.7% and 69.5%, respectively, of our net sales revenue from market pulp and paper products were attributable to sales made outside of Brazil. Domestically, we have a sales staff consisting of employees operating in various regions of Brazil.

Pulp

Our pulp business unit’s commercial strategy is based on three pillars: strong relationships, long-term partnerships and differentiated services. To ensure proximity with our national and international customers and to ensure that our products are tailored to their needs, we use a Brazilian sales team, which services Latin America, and local sales teams in the United States, Switzerland and China. In Brazil and in each one of our international offices, we have technical assistance departments that focus on our customers’ needs, with the purpose of providing our customers with smart technical solutions for their transition from other types of fiber to eucalyptus fiber. We organize annual technical workshops, in Brazil and in each of the countries where we operate, to share with our customers and international offices our innovative initiatives, technical developments and market strategy.

Paper

In 2017, 71.0% of our paper sales were made in Brazil. In order to better serve this market, we have divided it into seven segments, designing different commercial and marketing strategies for each segment:

• Packaging : this is the main end use of our paperboard sales and involves production of packaging for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, tobacco, toys, clothing, shoes, food, beverage, hygiene and cleaning industries;

• Promotional: this segment mainly involves coated paper sales and production of promotional flyers, catalogues, displays and signs;

• Editorial: this segment accounts for the production of books, magazines and newspapers and involves the sale of all of the paper types that we produce (coated, uncoated and paperboard);

• Notebooks: this segment involves the production of notebooks and diaries in both the local and export markets, and uses uncoated paper and paperboard;

116

Table of Contents

• Mailing: this segment mainly involves the production of forms and invoices, which use uncoated paper;

• Office: this segment encompasses three sub-segments (copying, competition and corporate) and involves the commercialization of uncoated paper in cut-size format, mainly A4; and

• Retail: this segment involves the commercialization of uncoated paper in cut-size format, mainly A4, in stationery stores, self-service businesses and convenience stores.

In order to serve the first five segments listed above, we combine different distribution channels: large paper volumes are sold directly to publishers and converters and small paper volumes are sold through publishing distributors. In the office and retail segments, sales are made indirectly, through paper distributors.

We own distributors for our paper and graphic products, one in Brazil and one in Argentina, Stenfar S.A.I.C. Importadora y Exportadora and Stenfar. For domestic distribution, we rely on four regional distribution centers: two in São Paulo, one in Serra (Espírito Santo) and one in São José dos Pinhais (Paraná), as well as our local distribution centers, in the cities of Campinas and Ribeirão Preto (State of São Paulo), Belém (State of Pará), Brasília (Federal District), Campo Grande (State of Mato Grosso do Sul), Londrina (State of Paraná), Fortaleza (State of Ceará), Goiânia (State of Goiás), Manaus (State of Amazonas), Porto Alegre (State of Rio Grande do Sul), Recife (State of Pernambuco), Rio de Janeiro (State of Rio de Janeiro), Salvador (State of Bahia) and Uberlândia (State of Minas Gerais).

Other than distributing our own line of paperboard and printing and writing paper, we also distribute other product lines to reach the graphics, editorial and consumer segments and to public agencies. Stenfar is a company-owned distributor of paper and computer supplies operating in Argentina through which we conduct such distribution operations. Stenfar has been operating for more than 58 years and has an important and active presence in the market. Stenfar has three subsidiaries in Buenos Aires, Córdoba and Mar del Plata. Stenfar services the graphics, editorial and consumer segments and public agencies, working with printing and writing paper, paperboard and computer supplies. According to market estimates on paper and computer supplies distribution, we believe Stenfar is one of the largest distributors in its market in the area.

In addition to providing our customers a more complete portfolio of services and products, our distribution operations in Brazil and Stenfar’s distribution operations in Argentina reinforce our commitment to strengthen our distribution channels, enlarging our network and directly benefiting our clients through greater proximity and agility in serving them.

In addition to our own lines of paperboard and writing and printing paper, we also distribute other product lines, for the graphics, publishing, consumer, converter and government entities segments.

Competition

The pulp industry is highly competitive. The top 20 producers currently supply approximately 75% of the global market. We face substantial competition from numerous producers of paper and hardwood market pulp, including major Brazilian producers, such as Fibria, Eldorado, CMPC and Celulose Nipo Brasileira S.A. (Cenibra). Many factors influence competitive position, including mill efficiency and operating rates and the availability, quality and cost of wood, energy, water, chemicals, logistics and labor, and exchange rate fluctuations. Latin American pulp producers have structural cost advantages over other global competitors, mainly in North America and Europe, due to their shorter harvest periods and higher land productivity, which is only partially offset by geographical distance from the end markets of North America and Europe. As such, Latin American pulp producers are our biggest competitors and key competitive factors are operational efficiency and exchange rate fluctuations. Many of our competitors enjoy cost advantages similar to ours, including low production costs, and have access to similar sources of funding to finance their expansion projects. The international pulp and paper markets are highly competitive and involve a large number of producers worldwide.

117

Table of Contents

As a vertically integrated pulp and paper producer, we compete not only with other vertically integrated pulp and paper producers, but also with companies that produce only pulp or paper. Many of these producers have greater financial resources than we do and enjoy lower financing costs. However, as the second largest producer of eucalyptus pulp, we maintain our competitive advantage by keeping production costs low, maintaining long-term contracts with our customers and vertically integrating our operations.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, of our total net revenues from sales of paper, 16.6% came from South and Central American clients (excluding Brazil), making up more than half of our total net revenues from exports to foreign markets. Our net revenues from sales of paper within the Brazilian domestic market constituted 71.0% of our total net revenues from sales of paper for the year ended December 31, 2017. Of our total net revenue for paper exports, revenue from South and Central American sales (excluding Brazil) represented 57.3%, 50.6% and 49.4% of our total net revenues from exports of paper in 2017, 2016, 2015, respectively. Revenue from European sales represented 13.1%, 12.7% and 11.0% of our total net revenues from exports of paper in 2017, 2016, 2015, respectively, and revenue from North American sales represented 24.0%, 29.2% and 27.9% of our total net revenues from exports of paper in 2017, 2016, 2015, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Eucalyptus Planted Forests

General

One of our greatest strengths is that we are a fully integrated low-cost producer of pulp and paper. That is due, in part, to the low cost of cultivating and processing eucalyptus trees compared to other species. As shown in the illustration below, the short growth cycle of our eucalyptus trees — seven years — presents a significant competitive advantage in relation to the costs associated with other fibers. For more information about our low wood costs, see “—Raw Materials—Wood”.

Our planted forests along with those of our partners are concentrated in the south of the State of Bahia, in the north of the State of Espírito Santo, in the State of São Paulo, in the east of the State of Minas Gerais, the states of Tocantins, Pará and in southwest of the State of Maranhão, and in north and east of the State of Maranhão and Piauí.

The table and chart below set forth the location and capacity of our planted eucalyptus forests as of December 31, 2017:

Location — States of Bahia, Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais 279 196
State of São Paulo 193 132
States of Tocantins, Maranhão, Pará, and Piauí 730 258
Total 1,203 587

On July 2, 2018, we exercised an option to acquire from Duratex S.A. (“Duratex”) approximately 20,000 acres of rural land and 5.6 million cubic meters of forest assets, for a price of R$ 749.4 million. The option to purchase was set forth in the Purchase and Sale Commitment of Rural Properties, Purchase Option and Other Covenants, with Conditions Precedent, between Suzano and Duratex, which was announced to the market on February 5, 2018.

Assisted Growth

For new plantings, we use both seeds and clones selected for their characteristics, such as height and diameter, productivity per hectare, lack of branches below the crown, suitability to local soil and climate conditions, and resistance to disease. Saplings grown from selected seeds and clones are initially cultivated inside climate-controlled greenhouses for 30 days. These saplings are then transferred to outdoor nurseries, where they are allowed to grow for another 70 to 90 days, after which they are moved to be planted.

We conduct research specific to each of our growing regions, utilizing general concepts of plant physiology and genetics. In the future, our productivity may increase through cloned hybrid cuttings or selected seeds. The research program also continues to seek ways to improve the uniformity of wood quality and maintain ecological balance by studying the soil, plant nutrition and pest control.

Ecological Balance

Since the adoption of minimum-impact cultivation techniques in 1989, there has been an increase in the organic material present in our planted areas and subsequent improvement in water retention and soil fertility. Moreover, our policy is to plant eucalyptus interspersed with native species in mosaic development in order to preserve biodiversity. Of the total planted area, approximately 14.3% is harvested yearly, all of which is replanted thereafter. We seek to protect our planted forests from disease by establishing biological reserves and from fire by keeping the lanes between our production units of eucalyptus trees unobstructed and by maintaining a fire brigade.

Harvesting

Eucalyptus trees are harvested by our employees and by independent contractors through an automated system and, in some cases, manually. Logs are generally transported to our pulp mills as needed and we store

119

Table of Contents

small amounts of logs at all of our production facilities. Logs to be used in our production facilities in São Paulo are currently stored in the forests for an average of two to five months to allow them to dry before transportation. In Bahia, logs are transferred to the mill 40 days after harvesting.

Plant Locations and Capacity

General

We produce pulp and paper products from five modern operating facilities consisting of: two integrated pulp and paper production facilities in the state of São Paulo (the Suzano and Limeira Units), a non-integrated paper production facility in the state of São Paulo (the Rio Verde Unit), an integrated pulp, paper and tissue facility in the state of Bahia (the Mucuri Unit); and an integrated pulp and tissue facility in the state of Maranhão (the Imperatriz Unit). The following table identifies our pulp and paper mills and sets forth the nominal capacity of and the products produced at each mill, as of December 31, 2017.

Research and Development

Our research and development activities, which employ natural resource specialists, are principally directed at increasing eucalyptus wood productivity and optimizing industrial processes, making our production more

120

Table of Contents

efficient and developing new products through: (i) improving the use of eucalyptus fiber in the manufacture of pulp, paper and paperboard; (ii) developing new applications for eucalyptus fiber including nanomaterials; (iii) conducting environmental research; and (iv) developing a eucalyptus bio-refinery to obtain renewable base chemicals. Our researchers in the industrial and natural resources areas work in close coordination with each other and with production, marketing and sales personnel. Our research and development facilities are located in the States of São Paulo and Bahia. Our policy is to continue to make investments in these kinds of research and development projects.

Our main forestry research focuses on natural growth, assisted growth, soil, nutrition and handling. Several research activities are developed in our own laboratories located in the States of São Paulo and Bahia. We have also developed several projects in partnership with research institutes and universities in Brazil and abroad. We direct our research and development activities at techniques to improve the productivity of eucalyptus trees, aimed at obtaining a more efficient production and supporting the development of new products. We try to identify the characteristics of wood and pulp that are essential to the production of high-quality paper.

In addition, we develop planted forest handling activities, through research on different types of soil, by checking the soil nutrition in order to seek greater levels of productivity and a more efficient forestry culture. We also invest in biotechnology related to the culture of tissues and mapping of molecular markers, and we maintain a close relationship with several universities and private research institutes both in Brazil and abroad that actively research these fields.

We are also participating in two eucalyptus genome projects. The first project, named Forest, is sponsored by the Eucalyptus Genome Consortium, a consortium of Brazilian pulp and paper product companies, and by the State of São Paulo Research Foundation ( Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo ), or FAPESP. The second project, named Genolyptus, is sponsored by the Brazilian Ministry of Science and Technology ( Ministério da Ciência e Tecnologia ).

Our main industrial research focuses on new applications for eucalyptus fiber. An example of this platform was the launch of our innovative Eucafluff in November 2015, which was the first application of eucalyptus fiber for market fluff. Regarding bio-refinery platform, we began eucalyptus lignin production in a pilot plant in December 2011 and we will start an operation of a demonstration plant, on an industrial scale, with a capacity of 20,000 thousand tons/year. This will be the first eucalyptus lignin plant in the world.

In 2015, we received approval from CTNBio through FuturaGene for the commercial use of genetically modified eucalyptus. Field experiments conducted in several Brazilian regions showed that this eucalyptus would allow for a 20% increase in wood volume when compared to the conventional clone. The FuturaGene’s GMO eucalyptus was the first clone approved for commercial purposes by CTNBio and represents the most significant benchmark in the wood industry since the adoption of the clonal technology. This approval also marks the beginning of a new phase of sustainable forest management, with Brazil becoming the first country to conclude the development cycle of this technology, which allows for more production with fewer resources.

Regarding nanotechnology, we built and have operated a nanofiber pilot plant since 2012, developing some marketing applications. We plan to build an industrial plant soon. We also have developed technologies to transform industrial waste grits and dregs, into market products, according to our environmental research platform. Biofuels are also included in this initiative.

Environmental Matters

General

We are committed to produce pulp and paper with a minimum of waste production and with the lowest impact on natural resources and the environment. Our continuing goal is to avoid and mitigate adverse impacts

121

Table of Contents

on the environment by controlling our emissions into the air and water, preserving biodiversity and by fully complying with Brazilian environmental regulations and recognized international environmental standards. In 1996, we were the first pulp and paper company in the world, and the first company in Brazil, to obtain the International Organization for Standardization 14001 (ISO 14001) certification for our planted forests in the State of Bahia. Our forests are also certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). Our environmental protection investments in 2017 totaled R$ 76.2 million in respect of our industrial units and R$ 13.0 million in respect of our forestry units. Our environmental policy seeks to:

• contribute to social and economic development while supporting environmental protection by the adoption of innovative management procedures and remaining a benchmark reference on environmental protection;

• prevent pollution, from research through installation, operation and commercialization of our products;

• develop and stimulate environmental education in a systemic and participative manner in order to promote environmental consciousness among our partners, collaborators and community;

• promote protection of water resources, seeking sustainable atmospheric and soil conditions and biodiversity conservation in the areas in which we operate; and

• extend and share our preservation and sustainable management programs among our community and organized sectors of society.

We are also committed to respect and preserve the environment, through reducing our consumption of natural resources and mitigating the impacts of our activities. At the forestry unit, R$ 27.2 million have been invested in monitoring and conserving natural resources and biodiversity, restoration projects, discussions with organized segments of civil society regarding best management practices, meeting certification demands, environmental education programs and sustainable development of local communities, among others.

Our environmental policy and environmental management system are aligned with the most advanced international standards. In 2017, costs incurred for compliance with environmental law were approximately R$ 11 .0 million. We have the ISO 14001 certification, which attests to our environmental management system, at all our industrial units, and our Mucuri Unit was the first in the pulp and paper sector globally to obtain this certification in 1996. We also have received other certifications, including ISO 9001, OHSAS 18001, CERFLOR/PEFC (Program Endorsement Forest Council) and FSC (Forest Stewardship Council), which attests that our forest management is environmentally correct and socially just. The FSC seal, created by different multisector international organizations, has strong international recognition and is also labeled in several of our products and our clients’ products. We operate, therefore, under strict compliance with environmental laws and regulations.

Our environmental commitments are also supported and monitored by relevant organizations and coalitions, including the Global Pact for the Environment, the Fundação Getulio Vargas /Centro de Estudos em Sustentabilidade (FGV-CES) and Coalizão Brasil Clima, Floresta e Agricultura (Climate, Forest and Agriculture Brazilian Coalition). In addition, we maintain a strong partnership with recognized forums and organizations to discuss and share knowledge on sustainability, including the World Wildlife Fund-Brazil, the World Wildlife Fund / New Generation Plantation, The Nature Conservancy, CI (International Conservation), The Forest Dialogue, Diálogos Florestais Nacionais (Brazilian Forest Dialogue), Fórum Florestal (Forest Forum), IBÁ (Brazilian Tree Industry Association), Instituto Ethos (Ethos Institute), the Brazilian Corporate Council for Sustainable Growth ( Conselho Empresarial Brasileiro para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável) and the GHG Protocol Brazil.

We also have a strong commitment to community service and participate in and fund a variety of projects, including projects supported by the Instituto Ecofuturo, a non-governmental organization that we have created

122

Table of Contents

and sponsor, whose purpose is to generate and share knowledge and practices that contribute to creating a culture of sustainability. In 2017, we invested R$ 3.5 million on its maintenance.

Water

Our proactive management of water use and reuse utilizes tools and technologies that allow rational use of water resources, essential for the production of pulp and paper, both in terms of industrial operation and for forest productivity. We have been granted rights for water collection from rivers, wells and reservoirs for use in our unit’s mills and forests. We have a permanent commitment to increase the efficiency of operations and consequently reduce consumption – which has occurred every year through internal reuse and improvement of industrial processes.

In 2017, we leveraged our initiatives through important partnerships such as The Nature Conservancy, the world’s largest environmental organization. Through the “Nascentes do Rio Mucuri Project”, we commenced activities aimed at promoting the sustainability of the river, as well as encouraging initiatives to protect natural springs and restore native vegetation. The region chosen for this work has Atlantic Forest remnants, one of the most biodiverse biomes on the planet, and currently occupies only 12% of its original area in Brazil.

We also invested in the installation of new equipment and processes, such as the new effluent treatment station (using activated sludge technology, which reduces the organic load launched in the Mucuri River) in Mucuri. On this project alone, we invested over R$ 100.0 million as a demonstration of our strong commitment for a better and more sustainable environment.

Solid Waste and Wastewater

Waste management is present in our processes and operations, both industrial and forestry. Wastewater treatment at all industrial sites takes place in our own Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs), and includes the primary treatment (physical) and secondary treatment (biological), a stage in which oxygen and nutrients are added, and pH is controlled. At the Limeira and Maranhão units, activated sludge technology is used for secondary treatment, while aerated lagoons are used at the Suzano and Mucuri units. We have composting plants at the Limeira, Suzano and Rio Verde units. In addition, as members of the IBÁ and the Business Commitment to Recycling (Cempre), we participate in discussions about the industry’s plans under the National Solid Waste Plan, established by the federal government.

In respect of residues and effluents from our industrial units, we carry out a broad management program aimed at reducing such residues and controlling and reducing potential risks to the environment. Moreover, we have established partnerships with third parties for the use of these residues as fertilizer and other recycled materials. Consequently, we now generate revenue from what previously were expenses, in addition to helping the environment. In 2009, the Environmental Company of the State of São Paulo ( Companhia Ambiental do Estado de São Paulo ), or Cetesb granted us a license to use the biomass ashes from the boilers in our Suzano Unit as fertilizers in our forests in São Paulo, the first time such a license was granted in the industry.

Biodiversity

Our forestry practices reflect our concern for biodiversity, from planning to implementation. Today we plan and implement our forest management operations using the mosaic landscapes approach, where eucalyptus stands are intermingled with native vegetation. We seek to connect the main native fragments, forming ecological corridors, contributing to the preservation of fauna and flora. Furthermore, we also work with minimal cultivation, where planting is done with low soil interference (crop residues - twigs, leaves and bark - are kept on the ground, contributing to fertility and protecting against erosion). This model provides a suitable environment for conserving and maintaining biodiversity.

123

Table of Contents

We reserve approximately 44.7% of our total land, or 538,168 hectares as environmental preservation areas. This total includes permanent preservations areas (i.e. riparian forests), legal reserves, high-value conservation areas, and other natural areas dedicated to environmental preservation, which exceed the requirements set by Brazilian law and global practice in the pulp and paper industry. We carry out periodic monitoring of fauna and flora in order to ensure its perpetuity. This monitoring has occurred since 2008 in Bahia, and since 2013 in São Paulo and Maranhão.

We continued our partnership with The Nature Conservancy (TNC), a non-governmental organization, to craft biodiversity conservation plans, which cover the remaining forest biomes in the Atlantic Forest, Cerrado and Caatinga, resulting in the Conservation Area Plan (PCA), which sets strategies for conserving biodiversity. We also continued our partnership with World Wildlife Fund-Brasil Corporate Partnership, where companies from a variety of industries exchange ideas and tools on how to improve their environmental management. We are the only company in the pulp and paper sector involved in the partnership.

Climate Change

The issue of climate change incorporates our continuous search to adopt best practices in the management of greenhouse gas (“ GHG ”) emissions, consisting of pillars of quantification, reduction and compensation.

In 2008, as one of the founding members, we began a partnership with FGV in the Brazilian program GHG Protocol, which aims to identify and account for emissions from the production process considering the direct emissions from our operational control sources (scope 1), indirect emissions from electricity consumption (scope 2) and activities associated with its production chain, but not controlled by us (scope 3). This tool is designed in accordance with the GHG Protocol methodology of the World Resources Institute (WRI).

Regarding the reduction of emissions, several continuous improvement campaigns are deployed in industrial plants and in forest areas, as well as technological investments in order to reduce the generation of greenhouse gases, increase environmental gains and meet the demands of customers, investors and consumers.

In 2010, we were the first pulp and paper company in Brazil to calculate our carbon footprint by measuring the gas emission throughout our products’ entire life cycle, from raw materials production and distribution through sale, use and disposal, which represents a broader exercise than the greenhouse gases inventory that we have been doing since 2003.

In order to act more strategically, in 2017 we resumed our life cycle analysis studies and began a low carbon strategic assessment. This study seeks to identify and analyze the main value attributes that connect climate change to competitive management, as well as producing strategic guidelines for our climate governance.

We have also adopted a policy to reuse the energy resulting from our production process. Our industrial units produce a significant portion of their energy requirements, and currently approximately 85% comes from renewable fuels (such as black liquor and biomass), and the remaining 15% from non-renewable resources (such as natural gas and fuel oil). Our Mucuri and Imperatriz Units are also almost self-sufficient in energy. In fact, currently both units are selling energy to the grid. In 2016 and in 2017, we added 700,000 MWh and 689,000 MWh to the public grid, respectively.

Brazilian Environmental Regulation

The Brazilian federal constitution assigns to the federal government, the states, the federal district and the municipalities the responsibility for environmental protection and preservation of Brazilian fauna and flora. The authority to enact laws and issue regulations with respect to environmental protection is exercised concurrently by the federal government, the states and the municipalities. The municipalities have authority to enact laws and issue regulations only with respect to matters of local interest or to supplement federal and state laws.

124

Table of Contents

The National Environmental Policy has established that the regular operation of activities that cause actual or potential pollutants, that use natural resources or that, in any manner, result in environmental degradation are subject to prior environmental licensing requirements. This procedure is necessary both for the initial installation of the facility and for any expansion of such facilities. The environmental licensing process basically follows three consecutive stages: preliminary license, installation license and operating license.

Regarding licensing procedures, municipalities have the jurisdiction to license facilities that only have a local environmental impact. Where the environmental impact of the facility is more widespread but still confined to one state, state governments have the jurisdiction to license such facilities. But if a facility generates an environmental impact on more than one state or involves a strategic interest (such as nuclear plants or indigenous lands), the federal government has jurisdiction to license the facilities.

Our activities are currently licensed by the following state agencies: (i) the São Paulo State Secretariat for the Environment ( Secretaria Estadual de Meio Ambiente de São Paulo ), or SMA and the Environmental Company of the State of São Paulo ( Companhia Ambiental do Estado de São Paulo ), or CETESB; (ii) the State Council for Environmental Policy ( Conselho Estadual de Política Ambiental ), or COPAM and the State Foundation for the Environment ( Fundação Estadual do Meio Ambiente ), or FEAM, in the State of Minas Gerais; (iii) the State Council for the Environment ( Conselho Estadual de Meio Ambiente ), or CEPRAM and the State of Bahia Environmental Institute ( Instituto de Meio Ambiente da Bahia ), or IMA, in the State of Bahia; (iv) the State of Espírito Santo Environmental Institute ( Instituto do Meio Ambiente do Espírito Santo ), in the State of Espírito Santo, (v) the State Secretariat for the Environment and Renewable Resources ( Secretaria Estadual de Meio Ambiente e Recursos Naturais ), or SMA, in the State of Maranhão; (vi) the Nature Institute ( Instituto da Natureza ), or NATURANTINS, in the State of Tocantins; and (vii) the State Secretariat for the Environment and Water Resources ( Secretaria Estadual de Meio Ambiente e Recursos Hídricos ), or SEMAR, in the State of Piauí.

The preparation of an environmental impact study and its corresponding environmental impact report, or EIA/RIMA, is required for purposes of licensing activities with significant environmental impact. In any such event, investments are required in order to compensate for negative environmental impacts. The amount of investment made to compensate for the environmental impact must be up to 0.5% of the total cost of the development. Since our principal activities began before the environmental compensation law, we were not required to invest to compensate for the environmental impact for projects performed before the year 2000, as set forth in the law that established the National System of Conservation Units – SNUC. However, new activities started after the institution of SNUC are subject to environmental compensation, which may result in new investments to compensate for the environmental impact of new projects.

We have licenses for the operation of our plants, which are generally valid for five years from date of issuance and may be renewed for additional five-year periods. The operating permits require, among other things, that we periodically report our compliance with certain emissions standards set forth by the appropriate environmental agencies. With regard to our plans, we are currently either (i) in compliance with all operating and environmental licenses or (ii) in the process of renewing these licenses.

Our forestry activities are concurrently regulated by the federal government and the state governments of the States of São Paulo, Bahia, Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, Piauí, Tocantins and Maranhão. The planting and harvesting of trees can only be done in accordance with a plan previously approved by the state agencies, except for the State of São Paulo, where a forestry license is not required. Furthermore, in observance of the new Forestry Code (Federal Law n. 12.561/2012), in general, we must keep at least 20% of our landholdings covered with native forests or replanted with indigenous tree species as a legal reserve ( reserva legal ). Legal reserves must be registered with a new program named the Rural Environmental Registration ( CAR – Cadastro Ambiental Rural ). In such system, the land owners shall provide information on all the environmentally protected areas to the environmental agency. However, this restriction increases to 35% in the northern region savannah and up to 80% in the Amazon forest. Also, according to federal law, native vegetation from areas along rivers and other

125

Table of Contents

water bodies as well as steep slopes and hilltops are to be treated as permanent preservation areas, which are essential to the conservation of water resources, scenery, animal, human and plant health, biodiversity and soil in the area. Our forestry operations are in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. See “—Environmental Matters”.

Our operations are subject to various environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to air emissions, effluent discharges, solid waste, odor and reforestation. In Brazil, individuals or legal entities that violate environmental laws can be punished by criminal sanctions that range from fines, imprisonment and confinement, in the case of individuals, or dissolution, in the case of legal entities. In addition, administrative sanctions that can be imposed include, among others:

• fines that may reach up to R$ 10 million if operating without a license and R$ 50 million in the case of severe environmental damages;

• partial or total suspension of activities;

• forfeiture or restriction of tax incentives or benefits; and

• forfeiture or suspension of participation in credit lines with official credit establishments.

In addition to criminal and administrative sanctions, pursuant to Brazilian environmental laws, the violator must also provide compensation and reimbursement for the damage that was caused to the environment and third parties. At the civil level, there is joint and strict liability for environmental damages. This means that the obligation to compensate for the damage caused to the environment may affect each and every individual or legal entity directly or indirectly involved, regardless of the existence of actual fault by the agents. Therefore, the engagement of third parties to carry out any intervention in our operations, such as the final disposal of waste, does not exempt the contracting party from eventual damages to the environment caused by the contractor. In addition, environmental laws provide for the possibility of piercing the corporate veil, in relation to the controlling shareholder, whenever such corporate veil is an obstacle for the reimbursement of damages caused to the environment.

Using advanced technology, our operations comply with all applicable Brazilian laws and regulations, and we believe that we also meet all recognized international standards to which we or Brazil are signatories. In the past five years, we have not received any administrative penalties or warnings that might be considered relevant or material fines in respect of violations of Brazil’s environmental laws or policies.

Intellectual Property

In spite of our research and development activities and investment in trademarks, we are not dependent on any particular patent, trademark, license, royalty agreement, industrial agreement or new production process.

Trademarks

We have registered many of our trademarks, including, as the case may be, our multipurpose paper trademark “Report®,” in countries across five continents, including, among others, the United States and Canada, countries that form part of the European Union, and countries located in Latin America, Africa, Asia and Oceania.

More specifically in Brazil, we have registered, or are applying for registration, with the National Industrial Property Institute ( Instituto Nacional da Propriedade Industrial ), or INPI several of our trademarks, including Report®, Paperfect®, Suzano®, Cartão Supremo®, Artwork®, Reciclato®, Pólen®, Alta Alvura®, Super 6®, Couché Suzano®, Suzano Pulp®, EucaFluff and Max Pure® and Mimmo®.

Table of Contents

Patents

We have applied for registration or have registered the patents covering the following main processes with the INPI:

• process for obtaining special board with security features for pharmaceutical packages and others (board “F”);

• method for genetic transformation of plant cells;

• machinery for production of cellulose pads;

• reversible process for conversion of paper pulp production into dissolving pulp production and process for production of dissolving pulp;

• lignin static mixer; and

• process for production of calcium chloride and carbon dioxide.

Insurance

We believe that we maintain adequate insurance coverage for our facilities with respect to our operational and commercial risks. Consistent with industry norms and practice in Brazil, we do not maintain insurance coverage for fire and other risks to our planted forests. Nonetheless, we adopt a series of measures, such as, maintenance of a firefighting brigade and keeping the lanes between our production units of eucalyptus trees unobstructed, which historically has significantly prevented the spread of fires. We use the amounts we would otherwise pay as premiums for fire insurance to implement preventive and safety measures, such as installing fire towers and fire control equipment and training firefighting personnel. It is our policy to maintain insurance coverage for our inventory of wood.

Employees

General

As of December 31, 2017, we employed a total of 7,830 employees, distributed as follows:

Management 577
Specialists/Engineers 1,060
Administrative 1,096
Operations 5,097
Total 7,830

As of December 31, 2017, we used 12,221 workers employed by third-party subcontractors and service providers, for many of our operations and for substantially all of the transportation of wood, pulp and other raw materials. Approximately 50.1% of the workers employed by third parties work in our forestry operations, 49% in our industrial operations and the remaining in other operational and administrative functions. In the years 2015, 2016 and 2017, the number of accidents in our facilities have been decreasing, amounting to 98, 87 and 66, respectively.

Our relationship with our employees is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in each of the collective labor agreements executed by us with the local unions to which our employees belong.

Compensation

In addition to receiving a fixed salary, our employees participate in a profit-sharing program based on the achievement of certain personal and corporate targets, which seek to stimulate our employees to effectively

127

Table of Contents

contribute to our growth. We also provide the following benefits to our employees, among others: life insurance, health care plans, day-care allowance, dental care, meal vouchers, cafeteria, food vouchers, transportation vouchers, Christmas food basket or voucher, toys or toy vouchers for employees with children up to 12 years old, educational support for our employees’ children, support for our employees with children with special needs, payroll loans, private pension plan and awards for period of service.

The compensation of the members of our board of directors and board of executive officers is determined annually at our ordinary shareholders’ meeting, in accordance with our bylaws. Our board of directors is responsible for the distribution of such amount between its members and the members of our board of executive officers. Our shareholders’ meeting held on April 26, 2018 approved the global compensation for the members of our board of directors, fiscal council and board of executive officers for the fiscal year of 2018 in the amount of up to R$ 60.4 million. For more information on the compensation of Suzano’s board of directors, board of executive officers and fiscal council, see “Suzano—Management and Compensation—Compensation”.

Phantom Shares Plan

Our phantom shares plan is settled in cash and based on the market price of our shares. Annually, if certain performance targets established by our Management Committee are met, our main executives are granted “phantom shares” in the amount resulting from the division of their salaries by the average market price of our shares at closing in the 90 trading days prior to the grant date. We grant the phantom shares in addition to the salaries of our executives. The phantom shares vest within three years of working at the Company; after such period, they can be redeemed by the executive at an exercise price corresponding to a given percentage over the average market price of our shares at closing in the 90 trading days prior to the exercise date.

Stock Option Plan

On August 29, 2008, our shareholders approved our share-based payment plan, establishing the main terms regarding stock options for the acquisition of our class A preferred shares for our officers, directors and other employees. The terms and conditions to grant such stock options were approved by the board of directors, assisted by a special committee. The options granted under such plan may not exceed 2% of our paid in capital stock. Certain executives currently receive part of their compensation pursuant to this share-based payment plan.

On January 18, 2013, 9 million stock options were granted, divided into five tranches of 1,800,000 options each. The vesting period for each of the tranches depends on the performance of the beneficiary during the vesting period, meaning that such vesting period can be anticipated if the relevant performance goals are achieved.

The options are vested as follows: (i) the first tranche is vested within 24 months, and may have vesting reduced to 12 months; (ii) the second tranche is vested within 36 months, and may have vesting reduced to 24 months; (iii) the third tranche is vested within 60 months, and may have vesting reduced to 36 months; (iv) the fourth tranche is vested within 72 months, and may have vesting reduced to 48 months; and (v) the fifth tranche is vested within 84 months, and may have vesting reduced to 60 months. Once the options are vested, the beneficiary has 90 days to exercise the options.

On November 10, 2017, we converted our class A preferred shares into common shares, as approved by the shareholders on September 29, 2017 by both the extraordinary general shareholders meeting and the special class A shareholders meeting.

Share Appreciation Rights Plan

Since 2014 we make available to certain of our executives and employees a Share Appreciation Rights Plan, under which the payment, in cash, is linked to the price of our shares. The difference between this plan and the Phantom Shares Plan is the fact that there is a minimum appreciation requirement for vesting.

128

Table of Contents

The options have an exercise price (or minimum level of share appreciation) that represents the average of the last 90 trading days prior to the grant date. The plan is composed of one tranche with a vesting period ending three years after the grant and maturing six months after the end of the vesting period. After 5 years, the options are exercised automatically.

The beneficiary is invited to participate in the plan. The acceptance by the beneficiary requires the investment of an amount equivalent to 5% of the grant at the date of the grant, and 20% at the end of the vesting period, which must be deposited in our bank account.

The beneficiary’s gain varies depending on the performance of our shares and may vary up to 25% more depending of the relative performance of our shares and the competing shares. This percentage is calculated based on our performance for the relevant period in comparison with our competitors’ performance, and may vary between 75% and 125%.

Material Agreements

Financing Agreements

For a description of the main agreements comprising our short and long-term indebtedness as of June 30, 2018, see “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Sources and Uses of Funds—Indebtedness”.

Legal and Administrative Proceedings

Overview

We are party to a large number of legal actions arising from our normal business activities, including general civil, tax and employee litigation and administrative and environmental proceedings. The liability that could arise with respect to these actions is described below, according to each of their natures. Although the amounts of any liability that could arise with respect to these actions cannot be accurately predicted, in our opinion, except as described below, such actions, if decided adversely, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

Tax Proceedings

As of June 30, 2018, we were involved in approximately 551 administrative and judicial tax-related proceedings, 384 as defendants and 167 as plaintiffs. These claims involve matters of Social Integration Program ( PIS ), Tax for Social Security Financing ( COFINS) , tax on manufactured products ( IPI) , Tax on sale of goods and services ( ICMS) , Tax on services ( ISS) , income tax and contribution on net profits ( IRPJ/CSLL) , and Social security contributions (INSS).

As of June 30, 2018, we had provisions of R$ 281.8 million related to tax claims for which our legal counsel considers that the likelihood of loss is probable. This total amount includes provisions for tax matters related to PIS and COFINS credits that are not related to ongoing tax claims.

In addition, the total amount related to proceedings in which we are defendants, and for which our legal counsel considers the likelihood of loss possible, is approximately R$ 1,040.0 million. As of June 30, 2018, there are no provisions accrued regarding such claims.

As of June 30, 2018, we were not defendants in any tax and social security contributions claims in which the individual amount in dispute was considered relevant (higher than 0.5% of our net equity with the likelihood of loss probable or possible).

129

Table of Contents

Labor Proceedings

As of June 30, 2018, we were involved in 3,511 labor proceedings and we had provisions in a total amount of R$ 45.4 million for probable losses in connection with these proceedings. In addition, the total amount related to labor claims in which we are defendants, and for which our legal counsel considers the likelihood of loss possible, is R$ 22.3 million, and, as of June 30, 2018, there were no provisions accrued regarding such claims.

The labor claims involve matters usually challenged by industrial employees, such as overtime, termination payments, requests for additional compensation for allegedly unsafe labor conditions, in addition to lawsuits filed by outsourced and third party employees claiming that we are secondarily or jointly liable for compensation owed to them by their original employers.

We are the defendant in six material labor claims, of which (i) four were filed by employees’ representative unions from the regions where our employees are established, claiming for the payment of allegedly unsafe labor conditions premium to employees listed by the employees’ representative unions in such claims, and (ii) two were filed by the Labor Public Prosecutors’ Office, discussing allegedly outsourcing irregularities.

As of June 30, 2018, the total amount under dispute in three of the material labor claims filed by employees’ representative unions was approximately R$ 32.3 million. For one of these claims, we provisioned the amount of R$ 9.1 million, which we classify as probable loss. For the other two claims, the amount under dispute is approximately R$ 23.2 million, which we classify as possible loss and, as such, we had no provisions in connection with these two proceedings. With respect to the fourth claim filed by employees’ representative unions, we have no estimated amount under dispute and we classify the risk of loss as possible.

With respect to the two labor claims filed by the Labor Public Prosecutors’ Office, we classify the risks associated with these claims as possible. As of the date of this registration statement, it is not possible to determine the amount under dispute, since these actions are in their early stages and there are no reliable and objective parameters available to estimate the amount under dispute.

Civil Proceedings

As of June 30, 2018, we were involved in 438 judicial civil proceedings. We had provisioned R$ 3.5 million for contingencies related to probable losses in these cases. There are also civil proceedings, for which the probability of losses is possible and that are not recognized in the provision for contingencies, involving a total amount in dispute of approximately R$ 102.9 million. These proceedings refer mainly to indemnification claims, real estate possession challenges and claims for the revision of contractual provisions.

We have four relevant civil legal lawsuits, which are related to environmental disputes and were all filed by the Federal Public Prosecution Office challenging the jurisdiction of the municipal or State agency authorities to grant environmental licenses. The Federal Public Prosecution Office alleges that the environmental licensing proceeding should be carried out by the Brazilian Federal Environmental Agency – IBAMA. Our counsel deems the risks associated with such cases to be remote, since IBAMA does not acknowledge having jurisdiction to perform the licensing proceedings and there is no clear legal ground to sustain such jurisdiction. The risks involved in such cases are the creation of unfavorable precedents, delays in our plantation schedule and the suspension of the Maranhão unit activities for a period of time. We are waiting for the superior court’s pronunciation.

We are involved in a civil lawsuit related to differences of operation fees in a port area. The first instance court rendered a decision, based on a technical document issued by an specialist, deeming the claims filed by the Federal Public Prosecution Office groundless. Our counsel deems the risks associated with such case to be remote. The Federal Public Prosecution Office filed an appeal against such court decision and we are waiting for the second instance court’s decision.

Table of Contents

We are also involved in a dispute alleging that our trucks are overweight and may have caused damage to federal roads. An unfavorable decision may impact our transportation logistics. We and our external lawyers deem the risks associated with such case to be remote. We are waiting for the lower court’s pronunciation.

In addition, we are involved in a dispute related to possible environmental damage in Cubatão a city in the State of São Paulo, allegedly caused by Cia Santista, a company that was acquired by Ripasa, which in turn was acquired by us in 2008. This lawsuit has lasted for over 30 years and involves 46 other companies. The lawsuit is a dispute seeking reparation for the environmental damage to Serra do Mar’s State Park (an especially protected area) allegedly caused by several companies that maintained activities in the industrial district of Cubatão until the 1990s.

On September 2017, the lawsuit was ruled in favor of the plaintiff, sentencing the defendant companies to recover the damages allegedly caused or, should the environment be already recovered, to pay a compensation of equal value of the cost of the recovery. This compensation would be allocated to expand Serra do Mar’s State Park. The ruling, however, did not determined the amount that should be paid as compensation, leaving the definition of this value to a latter procedural stage.

This ruling was contested by the companies by means of Embargos de Declaração , appeals that aimed to obtain reconsideration of the decision from the Judge. These appeals were rejected in January 2018. The companies then appealed to the state supreme court. As of this date, a ruling on this appeal remains pending.

Brazilian Press Reports of Alleged Tax Investigations

There have been reports in the Brazilian press alleging that we and certain other Brazilian companies have made payments to companies held by officials of the Brazilian Board of Tax Appeals ( Conselho Administrativo de Recursos Fiscais ), or CARF. In light of such press reports, we performed an internal assessment of our payments, which did not reveal any wrongdoing or violation of applicable laws. As of the date of this registration statement, we have not received any notice or summons from any government authority involving any investigation related to improper payments to any such officials. Nonetheless, we cannot assure you that we are not currently under an investigation of which we have not yet been notified, or that we will not face potential lawsuits, liability and/or damage to our reputation from such allegations or any such investigation, if commenced or notified.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

The following discussion of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 presented in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), included in this prospectus, and with our unaudited consolidated interim financial information as of and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 presented in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by IASB, and the corresponding notes thereto, in addition to the information under “Selected Financial Data”.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from those discussed in the forward-looking statements for several reasons, including, without limitation, the risks described in “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors”.

Overview

We believe we are one of the largest vertically integrated producers of pulp and paper in Latin America, with over 90 years of experience in the pulp and paper industry. We operate mainly in the pulp (paper grade and fluff) and paper (paperboard and printing and writing) segments.

We are the second largest producer of eucalyptus pulp in the world and the fifth largest producer of market pulp, according to Hawkins Wright. We believe we are one of Brazil’s largest paper producers, and, based on data from IBÁ, we accounted for nearly 38% of the printing and nearly 26% of the writing paper and paperboard produced in Brazil in 2017.

Our structure includes administrative offices in Salvador and São Paulo, two integrated pulp and paper production facilities in the state of São Paulo (the Suzano and Limeira Units), a non-integrated paper production facility in the state of São Paulo (the Rio Verde Unit), an integrated pulp, paper and tissue facility in the state of Bahia (the Mucuri Unit); an integrated pulp and tissue facility in the state of Maranhão (the Imperatriz Unit), and FuturaGene. We own one of the largest distribution structures for paper and graphic products in South America. Further, we maintain representative offices in China and England, subsidiaries in the U.S., Switzerland, Argentina and Austria and research labs in Israel, China and Brazil. For more information on Suzano’s businesses, see “Information About Suzano—Business—Overview” and “Information About Suzano—Business—Our Corporate Structure”.

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies

When preparing our consolidated financial statements, our management used estimates, judgments and accounting assumptions about the future affecting the application of our accounting policies and our assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from such estimates.

We review our estimates and assumptions continuously and any change thereof will be prospectively recognized.

See below information on judgments and assumptions used while applying accounting policies that have significant effects on the amounts recognized in our financial statements and which have significant risk of causing material adjustment:

Financial Instruments

The fair values of quoted financial instruments are based on current market prices. If the market for financial instruments is not active, we establish the fair value using valuation techniques. These techniques

132

Table of Contents

include recent arm’s length transactions, reference to other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis, and option pricing models that adopt maximum use of market inputs and rely to a lesser extent on entity-specific inputs (see note 4 to our financial statements).

Biological Assets

The discounted cash flow methodology is used to calculate the fair value of forest biological assets, whereby several critical economic and forest assumptions are made with a high level of judgment (see notes 3.1.6 and 13 to our financial statements).

Useful life and recoverable value of tangible and intangible assets

The useful life of our relevant tangible assets was defined by our management and is considered in the specifications of machine and equipment manufacturers, at the operational level of industrial units, and the quality of preventive and corrective maintenance. Our intangible assets with defined useful life are defined by our management. These estimates involve a high degree of judgment and uncertainties. In the event of changes and circumstances indicating that the book value of one of our assets or group of assets may not be recoverable, our management will re-evaluate and adjust the useful life of our assets according to the new outlook (see notes 15 and 16 to our financial statements).

Deferred income tax

The recognition and amount of deferred tax assets depend on the future generation of taxable income, which requires the use of estimates related to our future performance.

These estimates are part of a long-term plan, which is reviewed annually by our management and submitted to our board of directors for approval. This long-term plan is designed using several macroeconomic variables, such as exchange and interest rates; variables applicable to our market segment, such as curves of expected offer/supply and projected sale prices; operating variables, such as expected production costs and volumes. This set of variables evidences our judgment regarding the expected materialization of these assumptions and uncertainties.

Our management understands that, based on projected results and recorded results, the realization of deferred credit assets is probable (see note 12 to our financial statements).

Actuarial liability

We have actuarial commitments of post-employment benefits related to health insurance for former employees. These commitments and costs depend on a series of economic and demographic assumptions, mainly discount rates, long-term inflation, variation in medical and hospital costs, and variability in the actuarial table used, which imply some level of judgment regarding the assumptions adopted.

These estimates are reviewed annually by our management and may differ from our actual results due to changes in market and economic conditions (see note 22 to our financial statements).

Contingencies

We are currently involved in certain labor, civil and tax proceedings. The provision for legal proceedings is recorded based on our management’s evaluation and on the advice of internal and external legal counsel, and are subject to a high level of judgment (see note 21 to our financial statements).

New standards, revisions and interpretations not effective yet

IASB issued and approved the following accounting standards/interpretations that are not yet effective and we did not early adopt them for the preparation of this interim information.

133

Table of Contents

Our management evaluated or is evaluating and measuring the impacts of adopting the following standards/interpretations:

• IFRS 16 – Leases – It replaces IAS 17 and essentially requires that lessees recognize future payments in their liabilities and the right to use a leased item in assets for practically all lease agreements. Therefore, financial lease and operating lease agreements receive similar accounting treatment, although certain short-term leases or those for small amounts are outside the scope of this standard. This standard will be effective as of January 1, 2019.

Based on preliminary assessments, we believe that the biggest impact produced by this standard is related to the recognition in the balance sheet of the lease agreements of land used to plant eucalyptus forests, with terms of up to 3 cycles of forest formation, for around 21 years (see note 20.2 to our unaudited consolidated interim financial information). However, as of the date hereof, we were still analyzing these and other lease agreements, as well as the transition criterion to be adopted to implement the new standard.

• IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments – Clarifies the accounting of tax positions that have not yet been accepted by tax authorities. Both IAS 12/CPC 32 income taxes and the new interpretation IFRIC 23 apply only to income tax and social contribution. IFRIC 23 does not introduce new disclosures, but rather reinforces the need to comply with certain reporting requirements on (i) judgments made; (ii) assumptions or other estimates used; and (iii) potential impact of uncertainties that are not reflected in the financial statements. This standard will be effective as of January 1, 2019.

We are assessing the changes introduced by this new interpretation and, based on the analysis conducted made until the date hereof, we did not identify any major changes that cause any significant impact.

Principal Factors Affecting Our Revenues and Operating Results

Principal Operating Factors

Our results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 have been influenced, and our results of operations will continue to be influenced, by a variety of operating factors, including:

• capacity and production volumes;

• volume of pulp sales;

• allocation of our pulp exports per region;

• volume of paper sales;

• allocation of our paper sales between local and international markets;

• wood supply;

• cost of raw materials;

• energy matrix;

• list processes; and

• logistics costs.

Principal Macroeconomic Factors

Volatility of Currency Exchange Rates

The variation of the real against the U.S. dollar has affected and will continue to affect our financial condition and consolidated operating results when expressed in reais , in addition to impacting our revenues, expenses and assets denominated in foreign currency.

134

Table of Contents

Sales revenues from exports and, therefore, our operating cash flow, are directly affected by the variation of the average exchange rate between the real and the U.S. dollar. In the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, net sales revenue derived from exports represented 69.5%, 66.7% and 69.5%, respectively. Our exports sales are mainly denominated in U.S. dollars. The depreciation of the real causes an increase in such revenues when expressed in reais , while the appreciation of the real results in lower sales revenue from exports. Revenues in the domestic market are indirectly influenced by the variation of the exchange rate, given that the imported paper quoted in U.S. dollars gains or loses competitiveness in the domestic market depending on the exchange rate.

Our costs and operating expenses, such as freight and insurance costs related to exports and costs of chemicals used as raw materials, among others, are also affected by currency fluctuations. Therefore, the depreciation of the real results in increases in such costs and expenses, when expressed in reais , while the appreciation of the real results in the reduction of costs and expenses.

Our consolidated balance sheet items indexed in foreign currency, especially short- and long-term loans and financing, foreign accounts and accounts receivable from clients and inventory abroad, are also directly affected by variations in exchange rates.

The current and non-current portions of our consolidated indebtedness denominated in foreign currency totaled R$ 8.6 billion, or 70.5% of our gross indebtedness as of December 31, 2017. This amount is almost entirely tied to the U.S. dollar and therefore the exchange rate variations directly affect our results at the end of each fiscal year.

Inflation

Our financial condition and results of operations are also affected by inflation. Costs and expenses, with the exception of certain U.S. dollar-denominated expenses (such as those related to export sales and chemical raw material purchases), are generally incurred in reais and tend to reflect the effects of inflation. See “– Brazil” for further information on the inflation.

Interest Rates

Exposure to interest rate fluctuations is essentially related to:

• fluctuations in LIBOR, which affect our loans denominated in U.S. dollars; and

• fluctuations in the TJLP and the CDI, which affects investments and loans denominated in reais .

The interest rate applicable to our financial investments denominated in reais is based on the CDI. Our financial investments denominated in U.S. dollars earn interest based on rates tied to U.S. Treasury notes.

Brazil

We are a Brazilian company with significant operations in Brazil, and accordingly our financial condition and results of operations are influenced by the Brazilian macroeconomic environment. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Brazil”. After recording strong to moderate growth in prior years, the Brazilian economy began to stall in 2014 due to a number of factors, including weak fiscal policies, lower commodity prices, decreased internal consumption and reduced foreign investment resulting from increased political and market instability. Accordingly, Brazil’s GDP grew by only 0.50% in 2014 (compared to 3.00% in 2013), and decreased in real terms by 3.55% and 3.46% in 2015 and 2016, respectively. In 2017, Brazilian GDP grew by 1.0% due to substantial increase in family consumption.

135

Table of Contents

The inflation rate index for consumer goods ( Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo ), or the IPCA, as published by the IBGE, was 5.91%, 6.41%, 10.67%, 6.29% and 2.95% in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

During 2013, the real continued to depreciate against the U.S. dollar by 12.8%, reaching an exchange rate of R$ 2.34 per US$ 1.00 as of December 31, 2013. As a result of the political and economic instability, the real also continued its decline against the U.S. dollar in 2014 and 2015, reaching R$ 2.66 per US$ 1.00 on December 31, 2014 and R$ 3.9048 per US$ 1.00 on December 31, 2015. In early 2016, the real faced continuing fluctuations, primarily as a result of Brazil’s political instability, and appreciated against the U.S. dollar from March 2016 until early 2017. For most of 2017, the real continued to fluctuate, and has depreciated against the U.S. dollar since the beginning of 2018. As of December 31, 2017, the real /U.S. dollar exchange rate was R$ 3.3080 per US$ 1.00. On June 30, 2018, the real /U.S. dollar exchange rate was R$ 3.856 per US$ 1.00. There can be no assurance that the real will not depreciate or appreciate further against the U.S. dollar. The real may fluctuate against the U.S. dollar substantially in the future.

To control inflation during 2013, the Central Bank of Brazil gradually raised the Sistema Especial de Liquidação e Custódia , or SELIC, rate to 10.00% in December. The Central Bank of Brazil continued to raise the SELIC rate to 11.75% in December 2014 and 14.25% in July 2015. On December 2017, the SELIC rate was lowered to 7.0%.

Global Market

While our operating results for our business segments are driven by a number of business-specific factors, changes in our operating results are closely tied to changes in general economic conditions in the markets we operate, including in particular North America, Europe and China. Factors that impact the demand for our products include income per capita, growth in developing economies, especially China, substitution with other products, such as plastic and digital products. Product prices are affected by general economic trends, inventory levels, currency exchange rate movements and worldwide capacity utilization.

The international market prices of our pulp have fluctuated significantly, and we believe that they will continue to do so in light of supply and demand balance such as the increase in demand for pulp in China or new projects being developed and possible expansions.

Significant increases in the international market prices of our products, and consequently, the prices that we are able to charge, would likely increase our net revenues and our results of operations to the extent that we are able to maintain our operating margins and increased prices do not reduce sales volumes of our products. Conversely, significant decreases in the international market prices of our products, and consequently, the prices that we charge, would likely reduce our net revenues and our results of operations if we are unable to increase our operating margins or these reduced prices do not result in increased sales volumes of our products.

World pulp prices are cyclical because demand for paper depends heavily on general economic conditions and because production capacity adjusts slowly to changes in demand. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, BEKP average reference prices in North America, Europe and Asia were U.S.$ 1,215, U.S.$ 1,027 and U.S.$ 764 per ton, respectively.

We have long-term sales relationships with substantially all of our pulp and paper customers in the domestic and the export markets. These contracts generally provide for the sale of our market pulp at prices we announce each month. These prices may vary among the different geographic areas where our customers are located. The price arrangements under our long-term contracts are generally consistent with prices for our other sales within the same region and follow the established list price of BEKP announced by major global pulp producers.

Tax Incentives and Tax Credits

The Brazilian federal government has granted tax incentives to develop industrial activities in certain regions. In the northeast of Brazil, the Superintendence for Development of the Northeast ( Superintendência do Desenvolvimento do Nordeste ), or SUDENE, and the RFB, play an important role in managing such tax incentives connected with industrial activities in the north-eastern area. In general, tax incentives managed by SUDENE and RFB (i) apply only to the income tax and surtax, but not to the social contribution tax; (ii) are usually valid for 10 years; (iii) usually relate to the expansion, modernization and/or diversification of industrial projects; and (iv) must be reinvested in operating activities by the companies that receive the tax incentives.

Our Imperatriz and Mucuri Units received this tax benefit granted by SUDENE and RFB, which results in a 75.0% reduction of the income tax applicable to the pulp and paper activities operated by such units. The benefit is applicable for the production line number 2 of the Mucuri Unit until December 31, 2018 and for the production line number 1 of the Mucuri and Imperatriz Units until December 31, 2024.

The tax reduction resulting from 75% income tax reduction is not accounted for as revenue in our consolidated income statement. However, at the end of each fiscal year, after we determine our consolidated net income, the tax reduction for each year is partially allocated to our capital reserve as a tax incentive reserve, in accordance with the obligation under Brazilian law to not distribute the tax benefit as dividends. Our tax reduction for the period ended June 30, 2018 amounted to R$ 95.1 million.

In addition, we are allowed to carry out accelerated depreciation of the assets until December 31, 2018, which consists of full depreciation of assets related to our Imperatriz and Mucuri units, in the same year of

acquisition or up to the fourth year following the acquisition for income tax purposes. Furthermore, we are also a beneficiary of federal tax benefits programs that grant the suspension of social contribution taxes ( Programa de Integração Social, or “ PIS ”, and Contribuição para Financiamento da Seguridade Social, or “ COFINS ”) on internal purchases and imports of raw materials, intermediate products, packaging materials and certain assets. As of June 30, 2018, these benefits totaled R$ 65.7 million.

With respect to our exports, we are a beneficiary of a special regime for the reintegration of tax values for exporting companies, called Reintegra ( Regime Especial de Reintegração de Valores Tributários para as Empresas Exportadoras ), which is a program created by the Brazilian federal government to encourage the export of manufactured products. The amount available for compensation in 2018 is R$ 47.8 million (credits are recognized in our results as “cost of goods sold”). In 2016 and 2017, the rates on export revenue were 0.1% and 2%, respectively. From January 2018 until May 2018, the rate was 2% and, starting June 2018 up to December 2018, the rate is 0.1%.

Whenever we record a tax loss carryforward in a particular fiscal year, such loss is not subject to an expiration date and can be offset only against future taxable income, up to the limit of 30.0% of such taxable income.

As for state taxes, the state of Maranhão grants a state tax benefit, called “PROMARANHAO,” according to which the tax on consumption of goods and services ( serviços imposto sobre operações relativas à circulação de mercadorias e sobre prestações de serviços de transporte interestadual e intermunicipal e de comunicação , or ICMS) due on acquisitions of inputs, imported inputs and assets within the state of Maranhão is deferred. In June 2018, our balance of ICMS credit in Maranhão was R$ 148.4 million. Maranhão Unit also has R$ 24.3 million of deferred ICMS credits related to fixed assets. We expect that the sale of energy in our plant and our new line of paper ( tissue ) will consume part of this credit. Additionally, we signed an agreement with the state of Maranhão granting a transfer of our accumulated ICMS to third parties, which should speed up the consumption of our ICMS credit. In the event that we reach a negative balance of ICMS credit, the amount owed to tax authorities in the state of Maranhão should be discounted by 75%, due to the local tax benefit.

In addition, our Bahia Unit benefits from another state tax benefit, the “Desenvolve Program,” which defers ICMS due on acquisitions of inputs, imported inputs and assets within the state of Bahia. In June 2018, our balance of ICMS credit in Bahia totaled R$ 3.9 million. This Unit also has R$ 20.3 million in deferred ICMS credit related to fixed assets. Our cut size project and our new tissue line in Mucuri are initiatives developed to benefit from these credits. Additionally, we signed an agreement with the state of Bahia to monetize accumulated ICMS credit by transferring such credit to third parties. We expect that transfers to third parties will speed up our consumption of credits. In the event that we reach a negative balance of ICMS credit, the amount owed to the tax authorities in the state of Bahia would be discounted by 70% to 80%, due to the local tax benefit.

Net sales revenue

Net sales revenue increased 28.0%, or R$ 1,359.0 million, from R$ 4,849.7 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 6,208.7 million in the corresponding period in 2018, mainly due to higher hardwood pulp list prices in USD (average FOEX in Europe in the six month period ended June 30, 2018 of U.S.$ 1,027, compared to U.S.$ 732 in the six month period ended June 30, 2017), a weaker real currency and by the higher price of paper sold in both the export and local markets.

Net sales revenue from pulp increased 33.0%, or R$ 1,050.0 million, from R$ 3,181.8 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 4,231.8 million in the corresponding period in 2018, due to an increase in pulp prices. Net sales revenue from pulp represented 65.6% of total net sales revenue in the six month period ended June 30, 2017, compared to 68.2% in the corresponding period in 2018.

Table of Contents

Net sales revenue from pulp exports increased 35.1%, or R$ 1,012.9 million in 2018, from R$ 2,888.0 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 3,900.9 million in the corresponding period in 2018. Pulp exports represented 62.8% of net revenues in the six month period ended in 2018 (47.4% from Asia, 35.9% from Europe, 16.2% from North America and 0.5% from South and Central America).

Our average international net sales price of pulp in 2018 increased 35%, or U.S.$ 193/ton, from U.S.$ 551/ton in the six month period ended June 30, 2017 to U.S.$ 744/ton in the corresponding period in 2018. In the domestic market, the average net pulp sales price increased 54%, or R$ 787/ton, from R$ 1,469/ton in the six month period ended in June 30, 2017 to R$ 2,256/ton in the corresponding period in 2018.

Net sales revenue from paper increased 18.5%, or R$ 309.0 million, from R$ 1,667.9 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 1,976.9 million in the corresponding period in 2018. Net sales revenue from paper represented 34.4% of total net sales in the six month period ended June 30, 2017, compared to 31.8% in the corresponding period in 2018. The increase in net sales revenue from paper in the six month period ended June 30, 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017 is largely due to a combination of higher sales volume and price increase. Net revenue from paper exports represented 9.7% of our net sales revenues in the six month period ended June 30, 2018 (57.7% from South and Central America, 18.9% from Europe, 12.7% from North America and 10.6% from Asia and Africa). Net sales revenue from paper in the domestic market increased 16.4%, or R$ 193.5 million, from R$ 1,180.0 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 1,373.4 million in the corresponding period in 2018, impacted mainly by price increase.

The average international net paper sales price in 2018 increased 10.7%, or U.S.$ 85/ton, from U.S.$ 872/ton in the six month period ended June 30, 2017 to U.S.$ 957/ton in the corresponding period in 2018. In the domestic market, the average net pulp sales price increased 12.0%, or R$ 393/ton, from R$ 3,173/ton in the six month period ended in June 30, 2017 to R$ 3,566/ton in the corresponding period in 2018.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales increased 4.6%, from R$ 3,125.3 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 3,268.5 million in the corresponding period in 2018, primarily (i) as a result of an increase in other costs, such as a higher cost with maintenance stops on the first half of 2018, and (ii) an increase of the prices of our industrial supplies and of wood. The unit of cost of goods sold increased 2.9%, from R$ 1,328/ton in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 1,367/ton in the corresponding period in 2018 in line with period inflation of 4.4%.

Gross profit

Gross profit increased 70.5%, or R$ 1,215.8 million, from R$ 1,724.4 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 2,940.2 million in the corresponding period in 2018, due to the factors mentioned above. Our gross margin for the six month period ended June 30, 2018 was 47.4% compared to 35.6% in the corresponding period in 2017. This increase is mainly due to higher list prices for hardwood pulp and a weaker real currency.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling expenses increased 32.6%, or R$ 66.9 million, from R$ 205.3 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 272.3 million in the corresponding period in 2018. The main variation is due to an increase of R$ 39.0 million in the consumer goods business, and higher logistics expenditures due to an increase of the distribution freight rate.

General and administrative expenses increased 51.1%, or R$ 118.7 million, from R$ 232.3 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 351.0 million in 2018. The variation is due to higher expenses with personnel expenses and compensation plans based on net income, and an increase of R$ 13.0 million in the consumer goods business.

Other operating income (expenses), net

Other operating income (expenses), net was a loss of R$ 10.5 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2018, compared to a net loss of R$ 4.4 million in the same period in 2017. For the six month period ended June 30, 2018, the amount mainly related to the result from sales of other products, property, plant, equipment and biological assets and provisions for losses and write-off of assets.

Operating profit before net financial income (expenses)

Operating profit before net financial income (expense) increased 79.2%, or R$ 1,019.0 million, from R$ 1,287.3 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to R$ 2,306.3 million in the corresponding period in 2018, due to higher pulp list price, the weaker BRL and the higher paper prices in the domestic and export market. Our operating margin for the six month period ended June 30, 2018 was 37.1% compared to 26.5% in the corresponding period in 2017.

Net financial income (expenses)

Net financial income decreased to a loss of R$ 4,127.0 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, from a loss of R$ 552.7 million in the same period in 2017. This was largely due to (i) an increase in a loss recorded for monetary and exchange variation in the period amounting to R$ 989.6 million, and (ii) an increase in a loss generated by derivatives operations in the amount of R$ 2,485.1 million (of which R$ 1,574.7 million related to hedging operations entered into in connection with the financing of the Merger with Fibria).

Net income (loss) before taxes

Net income (loss) before taxes decreased R$ 2,555.2 million, from a gain of R$ 734.5 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to a loss of R$ 1,820.7 million in the same period in 2018.

Income taxes

Income taxes decreased R$ 865.3 million, from an expense of R$ 79.1 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017, as compared to an income of R$ 786.2 million during the corresponding period in 2018. This resulted from the decrease of net income (expense) before taxes, partially offset by an increase in the use of tax benefits related to the increase of taxable income. The increase of taxable income was primarily due to the increase of temporary adjustments of hedge and foreign exchange expenses.

Net income (loss) for the period

Net income decreased R$ 1,690.0 million, from net income of R$ 655.5 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 to a net loss of R$ 1,034.5 million during the corresponding period in 2018.

Net sales revenue

Net sales revenue increased 7.5%, or R$ 741.5 million, from R$ 9,839.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 10,580.7 million in the corresponding period in 2017, mainly due to an increase in the list price of hardwood pulp (average FOEX in Europe in 2017 was US$ 819 compared to US$ 696 in 2016) and an increase in volume sold (4.8 million tons in 2017 compared to 4.7 million tons in 2016). These gains were partially offset by the 8.5% appreciation of the real in 2017 and an 8.5% reduction in prices of paper exported .

Net revenue from sales in the domestic market decreased 1.7% or R$ 54.1 million, from R$ 3,276.2 million in December 31, 2016 to R$ 3,222.2 million in 2017, impacted mainly by the macroeconomic scenario in Brazil, while net revenue from exports increased 12.1% or R$ 795.6 million, from R$ 6,562.9 million in December 31, 2016 to R$ 7,358.5 million in 2017, reflecting a decline in international paper prices.

Net sales from pulp increased 12.6%, or R$ 776.4 million, from R$ 6,144.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 6,920.5 million in 2017, due to the increase in international pulp prices, partially offset by the real appreciation . Net sales revenue from pulp represented 62.4% of total net sales in the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to 65.4% in the corresponding period in 2017.

Net revenue from pulp exports increased 15.7%, or R$ 855.9 million in 2017, from R$ 5,440.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 6,296.2 million in 2017. Pulp exports represented 91.0% of net revenues in 2017 (43.0% from Asia, 32.7% from Europe, 14.0% from North America and 1.3% from South and Central America.) The average net pulp sales price in 2017 increased 19.9%, or US$ 99/ton, from US$ 499/ton in the year ended December 31, 2016 to US$ 598/ton in 2017. In the domestic market, the average net pulp sales price increased 9.7%, or R$ 168/ton, from R$ 1,740/ton in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 1,908/ton in 2017.

Net sales revenue from paper decreased 0.9%, or R$ 34.8 million, from R$ 3,695.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 3,660.2 million in 2017 due to the lower sales volume and the effects of exchange variation on exports to foreign markets. Foreign markets represented 29.0% of total net sales revenues for paper in 2017. Of our total net revenues for sales of paper, 16.6% came from South and Central America, excluding Brazil, 7.0% from North America, and 5.4% from Asia, Europe and Africa, while 71.0% came from domestic sales to customers in Brazil.

The average international net paper sales price in 2017 was stable in relation to 2016, from US$ 889/ton in the year ended December 31, 2016 to US$ 889/ton in 2017. In the domestic market, the average net pulp sales price increased 1.4%, or R$ 44/ton, from R$ 3,140/ton in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 3,184/ton in 2017.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales decreased 1.0%, or R$ 66.8 million, from R$ 6,563.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 6,496.3 million in the corresponding period in 2017. The unit of cost of goods sold decreased 3.3%, from R$ 1,391/ton on December 31, 2016 to R$ 1,345/ton in 2017 due to (i) an increase on sales of electric energy and (ii) an increase of the nominal rate in 2017 of the Regime Especial de Reintegração de Valores Tributários para as Empresas Exportadoras – Reintegra benefit (a special tax credit benefit for exporting companies allowing for tax credit relating to a percentage of revenues originated from exports) impacting cost of our goods sold.

Gross profit

Gross profit increased 24.7%, or R$ 808.3 million, from R$ 3,276.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 4,084.4 million in the corresponding period in 2017, due to the factors mentioned above. Our gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2017 was 38.6% compared to 33.3% in the corresponding period in 2016. This increase is mainly due to higher list prices for hardwood pulp, which was partially offset by the stronger real currency. For the paper segment (32.9% in 2016 to 30.1% in 2017), this margin reduction is mainly due to higher cost of production and the real currency appreciation.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling expenses increased 1.7%, or R$ 7.0 million, from R$ 416.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 423.3 million in 2017. The main variation is due to an increase in logistic costs in the amount of R$ 22.0 million. Selling expenses as a ratio of net revenue remained stable at 4.0%.

General and administrative expenses increased 23.9%, or R$ 101.9 million, from R$ 427.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to R$ 529.0 million in 2017. The variation is due to the increase in variable compensation. Administrative expenses as a ratio of net revenue increased 0.6%, from 4.4% in the year ended December 31, 2016 to 5.0% in 2017.

Other operating income (expenses), net

Other operating income (expenses), net was R$ 140.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to other loss, net of R$ 1,150.6 million in 2016 affected primarily by the adjustment to fair value of

biological assets, which amounted to R$ 192.5 million (non-cash). The adjustment is mainly related to the higher gross wood price in the states of Maranhão and Pará, which was partially offset by a reduction in forest productivity, as well as by other operating and economic factors, such as changes in planted area, inflation, discount rate, future costs with forest formation, among others.

Net financial income (expenses)

Net financial income (expenses) decreased to a loss of R$ 1,018.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2017, from a gain of R$ 1,121.7 million in the same period in 2016. This decrease was largely due to the effects of exchange rate and monetary variations and the results with derivatives.

Monetary and exchange rate variations generated a negative impact of R$ 179.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to a gain of R$ 1,367.3 million in 2016. Contributing to this result was the effect from exchange variation on balance sheet exposure between the opening and closing balances of the year, with an accounting effect on the mark-to-market adjustment of the portion of debt in foreign currency, though with cash effects limited only to debt maturities or amortizations. Derivative transactions recorded a gain of R$ 73.3 million in 2017, compared to a gain of R$ 528.8 million in 2016.

Financial expenses increased 20.9% or R$ 241.7 million, from R$ 1,156.2 million in December 31, 2016 to R$ 1,397.9 million in 2017. Excluding non-recurring effects from debt pre-payments, our financial expenses would have been R$ 1,054.6 million, a decrease of 3.3% comparing to the 2016 recorded net financial expenses, as a result of our lower leverage ratio and the effect of liability management operations, which reduced the cost of our outstanding debt.

Net income before taxes

Net income before taxes decreased R$ 137.1 million, from a gain of R$ 2,396.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to a gain of R$ 2,259.6 million in the same period in 2017.

Income taxes

Income taxes decreased 39.0% or R$ 280.3 million, from an expense of R$ 718.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, as compared to an expense of R$ 438.6 million in 2017. This resulted mainly from the adoption starting on January 1, 2017 of new methodology for the recognition of exchange variation for tax purposes.

Net income for the year

Net income increased 8.5%, or R$ 143.2 million, from a net income of R$ 1,677.8, million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to net income of R$ 1,821.0 million in 2017.

Net sales revenue

Net sales revenue decreased 3.2%, or R$ 322.9 million, from R$ 10,162.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to R$ 9,839.2 million in the corresponding period in 2016, mainly due to the increase in pulp and paper sales (as described below), increased paper prices in the domestic market, which was partially offset by a decrease in pulp prices (reflecting the appreciation of the real and the decreased list prices in U.S. dollar), and the appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar, which had a negative impact on our export revenue.

Net sales revenue from pulp decreased 6.5%, or R$ 427.9 million, from R$ 6,572.0, million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to R$ 6,144.1 million in 2016. Net sales revenue from pulp represented 64.7% of total net sales in the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to 62.4% in the corresponding period in 2016. Our average domestic and international net sales price of pulp in the year ended December 31, 2016 was R$ 1,740/ton, a 13.3% decrease from the price of R$ 2,006/ton in 2015, reflecting the appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar, which resulted in lower list prices in U.S. dollars.

Net sales revenue from paper increased 2.9%, or R$ 104.9 million, from R$ 3,590.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to R$ 3,695.0 million in 2016. Net sales revenue from paper represented 35.2% of

145

Table of Contents

total net sales in the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to 37.6% in the corresponding period in 2016. The increase in net revenue from paper in the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the corresponding period in 2015 is largely due to the increase in the price of paper and the higher sales volume. Our average domestic and international net sales price of paper in the year ended December 31, 2016 was R$ 3,128/ton, 6.3% higher than in the corresponding period in 2015 of R$ 2,944/ton.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales increased 6.8%, from R$ 6,147.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to R$ 6,563.1 million in the corresponding period in 2016, primarily as a result of the increase in the volume of pulp sales, the effect of exchange rate variation on raw materials linked to the U.S. dollar and lower energy sales. The main variation is related to other costs of R$ 284.9 million, due to (i) an increase in the purchase of third party inputs for fluff manufacturing, at the time a new product within our pulp segment; and (ii) a reduction of the nominal rate in 2016 of the Regime Especial de Reintegração de Valores Tributários para as Empresas Exportadoras – Reintegra benefit (a special tax credit benefit for exporting companies allowing for tax credit relating to a percentage of revenues originated from exports) impacting cost of our goods sold.

Gross profit

Gross profit decreased 18.4%, or R$ 738.6 million, from R$ 4,014.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to R$ 3,276.1 million in the corresponding period in 2016, due to the factors mentioned above. Our gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2016 was 33.3% compared to 39.5% in the corresponding period in 2015. This reduction is mainly due to the significant decline in the gross margin of the pulp segment (44.9% in 2015 to 33.6% in 2016), affected by the 14% drop in the average exchange rate in 2016, when compared to 2015, since most sales in the pulp segment are made to the foreign market. In addition, there was a negative variation in the average unit cost affected by general stoppages, leading to a loss in cost efficiency. For the paper segment (29.7% in 2015 to 32.9% in 2016), we improved our profitability through a policy of price increases in 2016 in the domestic market, where the largest sales for the paper segment are concentrated.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling expenses increased 1.5%, or R$ 6.3 million, from R$ 410.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to R$ 416.3 million in 2016. The main variation is due to an increase in personnel expenses in the amount of R$ 14.3 million and R$ 14.8 million of other expenses, partially offset by decrease in logistics costs in the amount of R$ 10.9 million and R$ 11.9 million services expenses.

General and administrative expenses decreased 6.3%, or R$ 28.5 million, from R$ 455.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to R$ 427.1 million in 2016. The variation is due to the decrease in personnel expenses in the amount of R$ 40.1 million partially offset by an increase of other expenses in the amount of R$ 13.3 million.

Other operating income (expenses), net was R$ 1,150.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to a net loss of R$ 104.5 million in 2015. For 2016, the amount mainly related to a R$ 780.7 million adjustment to fair value of biological assets, a provision of R$ 276.9 million for impairment of lands and forests in the State of Piauí and a partial loss of R$ 78.8 million of intangible assets.

Operating profit before net financial income (expenses)

Net financial income (expenses)

Net financial income increased to a gain of R$ 1,121.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, from a loss of R$ 4,409.6 million in the same period in 2015. This increase was largely due to the effects of exchange rate variations. Monetary and exchange rate variations generated a positive impact of R$ 1,367.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to a loss of R$ 2,828.4 million in 2015, due to the impact of the appreciation of the real of 19.3% between January 1, 2016 (R$ 4.0387 to US$ 1.00) and December 31, 2016 (R$ 3.2591 to US$ 1.00), which resulted in a decrease of debt in real terms recorded on our balance sheet.

Income taxes

Income taxes resulted in a benefit of R$ 435.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2015, as compared to an expense of R$ 718.9 million in 2016. This resulted from the significant increase in income before income tax, which was a loss of R$ 1,365.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 and a profit of R$ 2,396.7 million in the same period ended 2016, as we were able to apply tax loss carry forward in 2015 but not in 2016, leading to an increase in the deferred portion of these taxes. Additionally, we used the tax benefit granted by SUDENE, in the amount of R$ 124.1 million calculated based on exploration profit at our Mucuri/BA and Imperatriz/MA units.

Net income (loss) for the year

Net income increased R$ 2,607.5 million, from a net loss of R$ 929.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to net income of R$ 1,677.8 million in 2016.

Acquisition Financing

In connection with the Merger, Suzano has entered into certain commitment letters with a syndicate of lenders, including BNP Paribas, Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A., JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Mizuho Bank, Ltd., which acted as lead arrangers on the financing facilities related to the Merger. Subject to the terms and conditions of these commitment letters, the lenders committed to provide (i) US$4.4 billion under a bridge loan, or the “Bridge Loan”, and (ii) US$2.3 billion under an export prepayment facility, or the “EPP” and, collectively with the Bridge Loan, the “Facilities.” The lenders’ commitments are subject to certain conditions, including the execution and delivery of the definitive financing documentation for the Facilities. In July 2018, the commitment letters were amended to reduce the aggregate commitments under the Bridge Loan from US$6.9 billion to US$4.4 billion. The proceeds of such financing will be used to finance part of the cash consideration paid to current shareholders of Fibria, as well as for general corporate purposes, including exports of Suzano.

In June 2018, Suzano also issued debentures in the Brazilian market to finance a portion of the cash consideration for the Merger, with a maturity in 2026, half of the payments in 2025, a yield of 112.5% of CDI p.a., in the amount of R$ 4,681.1 million (U.S.$ 1,214.0 million). The notes have semiannual interest payments. For more information, see “The Merger—Financing Obtained by Suzano for the Merger” and “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Sources and Uses of Funds—Debt—New Transactions.”

Covenants

Currently, only the financing facilities from the Export Credit Agency have financial covenants. The agreements establish minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios measured in December and June each year. At December 31, 2017, we were in compliance with all covenants, which are required under certain long-term borrowings.

New Transactions

On July 31, 2018, the Company obtained financing from Safra Bank SA in the form of an Export Credit Note in the amount of R$ 770,600.00, maturing in July 2026, with an interest rate of 0.99% per annum plus CDI, which will be paid semi-annually. The net proceeds will be fully used to finance the Company’s exports. For the resources obtained, denominated in reais, the Company has already contracted a cross-currency interest rate swap to fix the interest cost in US dollars plus 5.71%.

For information on research and development, please see “Information about Suzano– Research and Development”.

Trends

We do not foresee any significant increase in the worldwide supply of wood pulp for the next 24 months, given that new capacities take at least 30 months to be constructed and we are not aware of any project with significant scale currently being developed. On the demand side, we expect the market to remain at current levels or slightly increase 1.4 million tons of pulp per year, resulting from stronger economic activity and a greater degree of substitution from recycled to virgin fibers and from long to short fibers. Assuming global pulp supply and demand trends during 2018 are in line with expectations, as noted above, we expect pulp prices to remain stable with a potential tendency for increase resulting from the expected growth in demand. However, unexpected shifts in global economic activity could lead to lower demand for pulp, which could have a negative effect on worldwide pulp prices and, accordingly, on our results of operations.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2018, and we did not have any such arrangements for the year ended December 31, 2017, other than as described in “— Contractual Obligations.”

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure of Market Risks

We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, correction indexes and prices of commodities that may affect the financial results of Suzano. In order to manage the impacts in the results in adverse scenarios, the Company has provided procedures for the monitoring of political exposure for the implementation of risk management.

The policies establish the limits and instruments to be implemented with the goal of: (i) protection of cash flow due to currency devaluation, (ii) interest rate exposure mitigation, (iii) reduction in the impacts of commodity price fluctuation and (iv) exchange of debt indexes.

In the process of market risk management, the identification, evaluation and implementation, as well as the contracting of financial instruments for risk protection are performed. The development management area accompanies the fulfillment of the limits established in the Company policies.

Exchange Rate Risk

As a predominantly exporting company, our results are exposed to exchange variations. As such, fluctuations in the exchange rate, especially with regards to the U.S. dollars, may impact operating results.

We issue debt securities in the international markets as an important part of the capital structure that is also exposed to fluctuations in the exchange rate. The mitigation of these risks comes from our own exports, which creates a natural hedge. Furthermore we employ dollar sales in futures markets, including strategies with options, as a way to ensure attractive levels of operating margins for a portion of our income. The sales in futures markets are limited to a percent of the currency over the 18-month horizon and, as such, are dependent on the availability of exchange ready for sale in the short-term.

The net exposure of assets and liabilities in foreign currency, which is substantially in U.S dollars, is set forth below:

Sensitivity Analysis – Foreign Exchange Exposure

For purposes of risk analysis, we use scenarios to evaluate the sensitivity that the variations in active and passive positions, indexed in foreign currency, may suffer. We take as a base case the values recognized in accounting on June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and, from there onwards, appreciations and depreciations

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to commodity prices reflected primarily in the sale price of cellulose in the international market. Increases and decreases in production capacities in the global market, as well as the macroeconomic conditions may impact our operational results.

It is not possible to guarantee that prices will remain at levels that are beneficial to our results. We may use financial instruments to mitigate the sales price of part of the production, but in certain cases the employment of price protection for cellulose may not be available.

We are also exposed to international oil prices, reflected in the logistical costs of transportation and commercialization.

Sensitivity analysis – Exposure to Commodity Prices

We did not have open assets indexed to commodities in 2017.

Annually, if certain performance targets established by our Management Committee are met, our main executives are granted “phantom shares” in the amount resulting from the division of their salaries by the average market price of our shares at closing in the 90 trading days prior to the grant date. We grant the phantom shares in addition to the salaries of our executives. The phantom shares vest within three years of working at the Company and, after such period they can be redeemed by the executive at an exercise price corresponding to a given percentage over the average market price of our shares at closing in the 90 trading days prior to the exercise date.

Stock Option Plan

On August 29, 2008, our shareholders approved our share based payment plan, establishing the main terms regarding stock options for the acquisition of our class A preferred shares for our officers, directors and other employees. The terms and conditions to grant such stock options were approved by the board of directors, assisted by a special committee. The options granted under such plan may not exceed 2% of our paid-in capital stock. Certain executives currently receive part of their compensation pursuant to this share based payment plan.

On January 18, 2013, 9 million stock options were granted, divided into five tranches of 1,800,000 options each. The vesting period for each of the tranches depends on the performance of the beneficiary during the vesting period, meaning that such vesting period can be anticipated if the relevant performance goals are achieved.

The options are vested as follows: (i) the first tranche is vested within 24 months, and may have vesting reduced to 12 months; (ii) the second tranche is vested within 36 months, and may have vesting reduced to 24 months; (iii) the third tranche is vested within 60 months, and may have vesting reduced to 36 months; (iv) the fourth tranche is vested within 72 months, and may have vesting reduced to 48 months; and (v) the fifth tranche is vested within 84 months, and may have vesting reduced to 60 months. Once the options are vested, the beneficiary has 90 days to exercise the options.

On November 10, 2017, we converted our class A preferred shares into common shares, as approved by the shareholders on September 29, 2017 by both the extraordinary general shareholders meeting and the special class A shareholders meeting.

Share Appreciation Rights Plan

Since 2014 we make available to certain of our executives and employees a Share Appreciation Rights Plan, under which the payment, in cash, is linked to the price of our shares. The difference between this plan and the Phantom Shares Plan is the fact that there is a minimum appreciation requirement for vesting.

The options have an exercise price (or minimum level of share appreciation) that represents the average of the last 90 trading days prior to the grant date. The plan is composed of one tranche with a vesting period ending three years after the grant and maturing six months after the end of the vesting period. After 5 years, the options are exercised automatically.

The beneficiary is invited to participate in the plan. The acceptance by the beneficiary requires the investment of an amount equivalent to 5% of the grant at the date of the grant, and 20% at the end of the vesting period, which must be deposited in our bank account.

The beneficiary’s gain varies depending on the performance of our shares and may vary up to 25% more depending of the relative performance of our shares and the competing shares. This percentage is calculated based on our performance for the relevant period in comparison with our competitors’ performance, and may vary between 75% and 125%.

Note on Calculations:

The average annual remuneration of each body was calculated by dividing the total amount of annual compensation (fixed, variable, indirect benefits and charges) for each body by the number of remunerated members in the respective body.

The lowest annual individual remuneration (fixed, variable, indirect benefits and charges) of each body excludes all members of the respective body who have held the position for less than 12 months.

The highest annual individual remuneration (fixed, variable, indirect benefits and charges) of each body makes no exclusions, considering all remuneration received by the respective member for functions exercised in the last 12 months.

Share Ownership

As of April 30, 2018, the members of our board of directors and our executive officers, other than members of the Feffer family, as a group, directly owned less than 1.0 % of our common shares. See “Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions”.

DESCRIPTION OF SUZANO SHARES AND SUZANO BYLAWS

The following information describes our common stock and provisions of our bylaws, the Brazilian Corporation Law, the CVM rules and B3 rules regarding the capital stock, reporting and disclosure requirements, as well as other corporate matters with respect to us. This description is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to provisions of our bylaws, the Brazilian Corporation Law and the rules and regulations of the CVM and the Novo Mercado . You should read and refer to our bylaws filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

As our common shares are listed on the Novo Mercado , we may not issue common shares without voting rights or with restrictions on voting rights. As long as we are listed on the Novo Mercado , we may not issue preferred shares. In order to delist from the Novo Mercado , we must conduct a public offering. See “—Delisting from the Novo Mercado ”.

Share Capital

As of the date hereof, our outstanding, fully paid-in share capital is R$ 6,241.8 million, comprised of 1,105,826,145 registered, book-entry common shares, with no par value. There have been no increases or reductions in the total amount of our share capital in the last three years.

In September, 2017, we approved the admission of our shares for trading on the listing segment called Novo Mercado of B3, followed by the conversion of the preferred shares issued by us into common shares at the ratio of one preferred share, class “A” or class “B”, for one common share. In addition, we also approved the restatement of our bylaws to adapt them to Novo Mercado rules and the change of the methodology to calculate mandatory dividends, also reflecting best corporate governance practices. We concluded the migration to Novo Mercado segment of B3 in November 2017 and the conversion of the preferred shares issued by us into common shares became effective.

The rights attributed to the new common shares (converted from our preferred shares) are identical to the rights previously granted to our then existing common shares. The rights attributed to the new common shares include: (i) the right to vote in our shareholders’ meetings; (ii) the right to receive 100% of the amount paid per voting share in the controlling block in the event our control is sold; (iii) the right to receive dividends and interest on own capital declared by us. For further information, see “—Rights of Holders of Common Shares”.

Dividends

The Brazilian Corporation Law and our bylaws require that we distribute annually to our shareholders a mandatory minimum dividend, which we refer to as the mandatory dividend, equal to at least 25% of our net income after taxes, after certain deductions, including accumulated losses and any amounts allocated to employee and management participation, any amount allocated to our legal reserve, and any amount allocated to the contingency reserve and any amount written off in respect of the contingency reserve accumulated in previous fiscal years, in each case in accordance with Brazilian law.

In accordance with article 26 of our bylaws, the minimum mandatory dividend corresponds to the lower of: (i) 25% of the adjusted net profits, and (ii) 10% of the Operating Cash Flow Generation in the relevant fiscal year. The Operating Cash Flow Generation (“ GCO ”) is calculated using the following formula: GCO = Adjusted EBITDA – Maintenance Capex, where “ EBITDA ” means the net profits before income tax and social contribution on net profits, financial income and expenses, depreciation and amortization (including goodwill amortization), gains (losses) arising from changes in fair value, less estimated realized and unrealized costs of sale of the biological assets. “ Adjusted EBITDA ” means EBITDA excluding non-recurring items and/or non-cash items. “ Maintenance Capex ” means the amount of investments in maintenance carried out in the fiscal year.

Table of Contents

Dividends must be distributed within 60 days from the annual shareholders’ meeting in which the distribution was approved, unless a shareholders’ resolution determines another date, not later than the end of the fiscal year in which such dividend was declared. The Brazilian Corporation Law permits, however, a company to suspend the mandatory distribution of dividends if its board of directors reports to the shareholders’ meeting that the distribution would be incompatible with the financial condition of the company, subject to approval by the shareholders’ meeting and review by the fiscal council. Net income not distributed due to the suspension mentioned here must be attributed to a special reserve and, if not absorbed by subsequent losses, must be paid as dividends as soon as the financial situation of the company permits.

The amounts available for distribution are determined on the basis of financial statements prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Brazilian Corporation Law. In addition, amounts arising from tax incentive benefits or rebates are appropriated to a separate capital reserve in accordance with the Brazilian Corporation Law. This investment incentive reserve is not normally available for distribution, although it can be used to absorb losses under certain circumstances, or be capitalized. Amounts appropriated to this reserve are not available for distribution as dividends.

The Brazilian Corporation Law permits a company to pay interim dividends out of preexisting and accumulated profits for the preceding fiscal year or semester, based on financial statements approved by its shareholders. We may prepare financial statements semiannually or for shorter periods. Our board of directors may declare a distribution of dividends based on the profits reported in semiannual financial statements. Our board of directors may also declare a distribution of interim dividends based on profits previously accumulated or in profits reserve, which are reported in such financial statements or in the last annual financial statement approved by resolution taken at a shareholders’ meeting.

In general, shareholders who are not Brazilian residents must register their equity investment with the Central Bank of Brazil to have dividends, sales proceeds or other amounts with respect to their shares eligible to be remitted outside of Brazil. The common shares underlying the ADSs are held in Brazil by Banco Itaú S.A., also known as the custodian, as agent for the depositary, which is the registered owner on the records of the registrar for our shares.

Payments of cash dividends and distributions, if any, are made in reais to the custodian on behalf of the depositary, which then converts such proceeds into U.S. Dollars and causes such U.S. Dollars to be delivered to the depositary for distribution to holders of ADSs. In the event that the custodian is unable to convert immediately the foreign currency received as dividends into U.S. Dollars, the amount of U.S. Dollars payable to holders of ADSs may be adversely affected by devaluations of the Brazilian currency that occur before the dividends are converted. Under the Brazilian Corporation Law, dividends paid to persons who are not Brazilian residents, including holders of ADSs, will not be subject to Brazilian withholding tax.

Brazilian law allows the payment of dividends only in reais limited to the unappropriated retained earnings in our financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. At December 31, 2017, in our financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, we had retained earnings of R$ 2,922.8, million. Retained earnings as reported in accordance with IFRS may be used to make additional discretionary dividend payments, but we cannot assure you that we will make dividend payments out of these unappropriated retained earnings in the foreseeable future. No dividend distribution can be made if an accumulated deficit is reported in accordance with IFRS, unless the negative balance is eliminated by the reversal of other reserves.

Payment of dividends

In accordance with the Brazilian Corporation Law and our bylaws, we paid R$ 570.6 million in 2017, R$ 299.9 million in 2016 and R$ 269.9 million in 2015.

Rights of Holders of Common Shares

Each of our common shares entitles its holder to one vote at our annual or extraordinary general shareholders’ meetings ( assembleia geral ordinária or assembleia geral extraordinária ). Pursuant to our bylaws and our B3 listing agreement in connection with the listing of the common shares on the Novo Mercado , we cannot issue shares without voting rights or with restricted voting rights. As long as we are listed on the Novo Mercado , we may not issue preferred shares. In addition, our bylaws and the Brazilian Corporation Law provide that holders of our common shares are entitled to dividends or other distributions made in respect of our common shares in accordance with their respective participation in our capital. See “Description of Suzano ADSs and Suzano Deposit Agreement—Dividends and Distributions” for a more complete description of payment of dividends and other distributions of our common shares. In addition, in the event of our liquidation and following the payment of all our outstanding liabilities, holders of our common shares are entitled to receive their pro rata interest in any remaining assets, in accordance with their respective participation in our capital. The shareholders have preemptive rights to subscribe for new shares issued by us, pursuant to the Brazilian Corporation Law, but are not obligated to subscribe for future capital increases.

Pursuant to the Novo Mercado rules, our common shares have tag-along rights which enable their holders, upon the sale of a controlling interest in us, to receive in exchange for their shares 100% of the price paid per common share for the controlling block.

Pursuant to the Brazilian Corporation Law, neither our bylaws nor actions taken at a shareholders’ meeting may deprive a shareholder of: (1) the right to participate in the distribution of net income; (2) the right to participate equally and proportionally in any residual assets in the event of liquidation of our company; (3) preemptive rights in the event of issuance of new shares, convertible debentures or subscription warrants, except in some specific circumstances under the Brazilian Corporation Law; (4) the right to hold our management accountable in accordance with the provisions of the Brazilian Corporation Law; and (5) the right to withdraw from us in the cases specified in the Brazilian Corporation Law, including merger or consolidation, which are described in “Description of Suzano Shares and Suzano Bylaws—Dividends—Right of Withdrawal” and “Description of Suzano Shares and Suzano Bylaws—Dividends—Redemption”.

Neither our bylaws, nor the Brazilian Corporation Law, contain any restriction on voting by Non-Brazilian Holders of our common shares.

Public Tender Offer Upon Sale of Control

Holders of common shares shall be entitled to receive a price for their shares equal to that received by the selling controlling shareholders through a mandatory public tender offer required to be conducted upon a sale of control of our company pursuant to article 254-A of the Brazilian Corporation Law and articles 37 and 38 of the Novo Mercado Listing Rules.

Allocation of Net Income

At each annual shareholders’ meeting, our bylaws require our board of directors to recommend that net income for the preceding fiscal year from which income tax has already been deducted be allocated as follows:

• 5% for a legal reserve that will not exceed 20% of our paid-in capital;

• an amount for a contingency reserve;

• the lower of: (i) 25% of the annual net profit adjusted in accordance with section 202 of the Brazilian Corporation Law or (ii) 10% of the Operating Cash Flow Generation (as defined in our by-laws) in the respective fiscal year (see “—Dividends”); and

• any balance to be allocated in the manner determined by the shareholders, according to our by-laws and the Brazilian Corporation Law.

172

Table of Contents

Under the Brazilian Corporation Law, payment of the mandatory dividend is not required if the board of directors has formally declared such distribution to be inadvisable in view of our financial condition and has provided the shareholders at the annual general shareholders’ meeting with an opinion to that effect, which has been reviewed by our fiscal council and reported to the CVM five days following such meeting. See “—Dividends”.

Preemptive Rights

Each of our shareholders has a general preemptive right to subscribe for shares or convertible securities in any capital increase, in proportion to its shareholding, except (i) in the event of the grant and exercise of any stock option to acquire or subscribe for shares of our capital stock; and (ii) in the context of a capital increase derived from merger, merger of shares and/or spin-off implemented according to the Brazilian Corporation Law. A minimum period of 30 days following the publication of notice of the issuance of shares or convertible securities is allowed for exercise of the right, and the right is negotiable. However, according to our bylaws, our board of directors can eliminate this preemptive right or reduce the 30-day period in the event we issue debentures that are convertible into shares, warrants ( bônus de subscrição ) or shares within the limits authorized by the bylaws: (i) through a stock exchange or through a public offering or (ii) through an exchange of shares in a public offering to acquire control of another publicly-held company.

Except as described above, in the event of a capital increase that would (i) maintain the proportion of capital represented by common and preferred shares, the holders of common and preferred shares would have preemptive rights to subscribe to our newly issued shares in proportion to their shareholdings in each class of shares; (ii) modify the proportion of capital represented by common and preferred shares, the holders of common and preferred shares would have preemptive rights to subscribe to our newly issued common and preferred shares, respectively, in proportion to their shareholdings, and to the other class of shares only to the extent necessary to prevent dilution of their interest in their shares; and (iii) create a new class or type of shares, all shareholders have preemptive rights to subscribe to our newly issued shares of such new class or type, in proportion to their shareholdings. Investors may not be able to exercise the preemptive rights relating to the preferred shares underlying your ADSs unless a registration statement under the Securities Act is effective with respect to the shares to which the rights relate or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available and the Suzano Depositary determines to make the rights available to you.

Arbitration

In accordance with the regulations of the Novo Mercado and our bylaws, we, our shareholders, our executive officers, our directors and fiscal council members are required to resolve through arbitration any disputes or controversies, including those related to or arising out of the application, validity, effectiveness, interpretation and violation, among others, of the provisions of the Brazilian Corporation Law, our bylaws, the rules published by the CMN, the Central Bank of Brazil, the CVM and other rules applicable to the Brazilian capital markets in general, as well as those set forth in the Novo Mercado Listing Regulations, in the Novo Mercado Listing Agreement and in other rules issued by B3, and such arbitration is the exclusive means to settle such disputes with our shareholders. As the holders of our ADSs are not direct shareholders of Suzano, these arbitration requirements do not apply to such ADS holders; however, because the Suzano Depositary is a holder of our shares, it would be bound by these mandatory arbitration provisions if it sought to exercise remedies against Suzano under Brazilian law.

Liquidation

Suzano shall be liquidated upon the occurrence of certain events provided for in the Brazilian Corporation Law, whereupon a meeting of the shareholders shall determine the form of liquidation, electing the liquidators and the members of our fiscal council, which must operate on a mandatory basis during the liquidation period. Any surplus in the event of liquidation will be divided among shareholders.

173

Table of Contents

Redemption

According to the Brazilian Corporation Law, we may redeem our common shares subject to the approval of our shareholders at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting where shareholders representing at least 50% of the shares that would be affected are present. The share redemption may be paid with our retained earnings, income reserves or capital reserves, with the exception of the legal reserve.

If the share redemption is not applicable to all shares, the redemption will be made by lottery. If custody shares are picked in the lottery and there are no rules established in the custody agreement, the financial institution will specify on a pro rata basis, the shares to be redeemed.

Right of Withdrawal

The Brazilian Corporation Law provides that, under certain circumstances, a shareholder has the right to withdraw its equity interest from the company and to receive payment for the portion of shareholders’ equity attributable to its equity interest. Withdrawal rights may be exercised by dissenting or non-voting shareholders, if a vote of at least 50% of voting shares authorizes us:

• to establish new shares or to disproportionately increase an existing class of preferred shares relative to the other classes of shares, unless such action is provided for or authorized by the bylaws (our bylaws currently authorize such action);

• to modify a preference, privilege or condition of redemption or amortization conferred on one or more classes of preferred shares, or to create a new class with greater privileges than the existing classes of preferred shares;

• to reduce the mandatory distribution of dividends;

• to merge with another company (including if we are merged into one of our controlling companies) or to consolidate, except as described in the fourth paragraph following this list;

• to approve our participation in a centralized group of companies, as defined under the Brazilian Corporation Law, and subject to the conditions set forth therein, except as described in the fourth paragraph following this list;

• to change our corporate purpose;

• to terminate a state of liquidation of the corporation;

• to dissolve the corporation;

• to transfer all of our shares to another company or in order to make us a wholly owned subsidiary of such company, known as a merger of shares ( incorporação de ações) , except as described in the fourth paragraph following this list;

• to approve the acquisition of control of another company at a price which exceeds certain limits set forth in the Brazilian Corporation Law, except as described in the fourth paragraph following this list; or

• to conduct a spin-off that results in (a) a change of our corporate purposes, except if the assets and liabilities of the spinoff company are contributed to a company that is engaged in substantially the same activities, (b) a reduction in the mandatory dividend or (c) any participation in a centralized group of companies, as defined under the Brazilian Corporation Law.

In addition, in the event that the entity resulting from incorporação de ações , or a merger of shares, a consolidation or a spinoff of a listed company fails to become a listed company within 120 days of the shareholders’ meeting at which such decision was taken, the dissenting or non-voting shareholders may also exercise their withdrawal rights.

174

Table of Contents

Only holders of shares adversely affected by the changes mentioned in the first and second items above may withdraw their shares. The right of withdrawal lapses 30 days after publication of the minutes of the relevant shareholders’ meeting. In the first two cases mentioned above, however, the resolution is subject to confirmation by the preferred shareholders, which must be obtained at a special meeting held within one year. In those cases, the 30-day term is counted from the date the minutes of the special meeting are published. We would be entitled to reconsider any action giving rise to withdrawal rights within 10 days following the expiration of such rights if the withdrawal of shares of dissenting shareholders would jeopardize our financial stability.

The Brazilian Corporation Law allows companies to redeem their shares at their economic value, subject to certain requirements. Since our bylaws currently do not provide that our shares be subject to withdrawal at their economic value, our shares would be subject to withdrawal at their book value, determined on the basis of the last balance sheet approved by the shareholders. If the shareholders’ meeting giving rise to withdrawal rights occurs more than 60 days after the date of the last approved balance sheet, a shareholder may demand that its shares be valued on the basis of a new balance sheet that is of a date within 60 days of such shareholders’ meeting.

Pursuant to the Brazilian Corporation Law, in events of consolidation, merger, incorporação de ações , participation in a group of companies, and acquisition of control of another company, the right to withdraw does not apply if the shares meet certain tests relating to liquidity and dispersal of the type or class of shares on the market. In such cases, shareholders will not be entitled to withdraw their shares if the shares are a component of a general securities index in Brazil or abroad admitted to trading on the securities markets, as defined by the CVM, and the shares held by persons unaffiliated with the controlling shareholder represent more than half of the outstanding shares of the relevant type or class.

Registration of Shares

Our common shares are held in book-entry form with Itaú Corretora de Valores S.A. Transfer of our common shares is carried out by means of an entry by Itaú Corretora de Valores S.A. in its accounting system, debiting from the depositing shareholders’ account and crediting the buyers’ account, upon a written order of the transferor or a judicial authorization or order.

Form and Transfer

Because our shares are in registered book-entry form, the transfer of shares is made under article 35 of the Brazilian Corporation Law, which determines that a transfer of shares is effected by an entry made by the registrar, by debiting the share account of the transferor and crediting the share account of the transferee. Banco Itaú S.A. performs safe- keeping, share transfer and other related services for us.

Transfers of shares by a foreign investor are made in the same way and executed by that investor’s local agent on the investor’s behalf except that, if the original investment was registered with the Central Bank of Brazil, pursuant to Resolution No. 4,373/2014 of the Central Bank of Brazil, the foreign investor, through its local agent, should also seek amendment, if necessary, of the electronic certificate of registration to reflect the new ownership.

The B3 operates a central clearing system. A holder of our shares may choose, at its discretion, to hold our shares through this system and all shares elected to be put into the system will be deposited in custody with the relevant stock exchange (through a Brazilian institution duly authorized to operate by the Central Bank of Brazil having a clearing account with the relevant stock exchange). The fact that those shares are subject to custody with the relevant stock exchange will be reflected in our register of shareholders. Each participating shareholder will, in turn, be registered in our register of beneficial shareholders maintained by the relevant stock exchange and will be treated in the same way as a registered shareholder.

Shareholders’ Meetings

Pursuant to the Brazilian Corporation Law, our shareholders are generally empowered to take any action relating to our corporate purposes and to pass resolutions that they deem necessary. Shareholders at our annual general shareholders’ meeting, which is required to be held within 120 days of the end of each year, have the exclusive right to approve our audited financial statements and our management accounts, as well as to determine the allocation of our net income and the distribution of dividends with respect to the fiscal year ended immediately prior to the date of the relevant shareholders’ meeting and to elect the members of our board of directors and fiscal council (if the establishment of the board of directors has been required under applicable law, as it is in the case of publicly traded companies).

An extraordinary shareholders’ meeting may be held at any time during the year, including concurrently with the annual shareholders’ meeting.

The following matters, among others, may be resolved only at a shareholders’ meeting:

• amendment of our bylaws;

• election and dismissal of the members of our board of directors and fiscal council, whenever requested by our shareholders;

• approval of management accounts and of our audited financial statements on a yearly basis;

• authorization of issuance of debentures by us, except for issuances which our board of directors has been authorized to decide pursuant to a previous decision of our shareholders;

• suspension of the exercise of a shareholder’s rights in the event of non-compliance with the Brazilian Corporation Law or our bylaws;

• approval of valuation reports of assets offered by a shareholder to us as payment for the subscription of shares of our capital stock;

• approval of issuance of shares in excess of the limit of our authorized capital;

• determination of the annual compensation of our executive officers, board of directors and fiscal council;

• approval of any transaction involving our transformation into a limited liability company, consolidation, merger or spin-off;

• approval of any transaction involving our dissolution or liquidation, the appointment and dismissal of the respective liquidator and the official review of the reports prepared by it;

• authorization to delist from B3 Novo Mercado and to become a private company, as well as to retain a specialist firm to prepare a valuation report with respect to the value of our common shares, in such event;

• authorization to our directors and officers to petition for bankruptcy or file a request for judicial or extra-judicial restructuring;

• stock option plans for officers, employees, excluding shareholder preemptive rights; and

• transfer, sale, loan, pledge or any disposition of a significant amount of the assets of our company or any of our subsidiaries.

Quorum

As a general rule, the Brazilian Corporation Law provides that the quorum for purposes of a shareholders’ meeting consists of shareholders representing at least 25% of our issued and outstanding share on first call, and,

176

Table of Contents

if that quorum is not reached, any percentage on second call. If our shareholders meet to amend our bylaws, a supermajority quorum of shareholders representing at least two-thirds of our issued and outstanding shares shall be required on first call, and any percentage will be sufficient on second call.

According to Suzano’s bylaws effective on the date hereof, if we cancel our registration with the CVM as a publicly held company and delist from the Novo Mercado , our shareholders will have the right to select a specialized firm to prepare a valuation report with respect to our common shares. The quorum for a shareholders’ meeting to authorize such report consists of shareholders representing at least 20% of our issued and outstanding shares on first call and, if that quorum is not reached, any percentage on second call.

A shareholder may be represented in a shareholders’ meeting by an attorney-in-fact appointed no more than one year prior to the date of the relevant shareholders’ meeting. The attorney-in-fact must be a shareholder, director or executive officer of our company, lawyer or a financial institution registered by their manager.

Generally, the affirmative vote of shareholders representing at least the majority of our issued and outstanding shares present in person, or represented by proxy, at a shareholders’ meeting is required to approve any proposed action, with abstentions not taken into account. Exceptionally, according to the Brazilian Corporation Law, the affirmative vote of shareholders representing not less than one-half of our issued and outstanding shares is required to, among other measures:

• reduce the percentage of mandatory dividends;

• change our corporate purpose;

• consolidate with or merge us into another company;

• engage in a spin-off transaction;

• approve our participation in a group of companies (as defined in the Brazilian Corporation Law);

• apply for cancellation of any voluntary liquidation;

• approve our dissolution;

• approve the merger of all of our common shares into another Brazilian company;

• to establish new classes of shares or to disproportionately increase an existing class of preferred shares relative to the other classes of shares, unless such action is provided for or authorized by the bylaws (our bylaws currently authorize such action); and

• to modify a preference, privilege or condition of redemption or amortization conferred on one or more existing classes of preferred shares, or to create a new class with greater privileges than the existing classes of preferred shares.

Location of a Shareholders’ Meeting

Our shareholders’ meetings take place at our headquarters in the city of Salvador, State of Bahia, Brazil. The Brazilian Corporation Law allows our shareholders to hold meetings in another location in the event of a force majeure, provided that the meetings are held in the city of Salvador and the relevant notice includes a clear indication of the place where the meeting will occur. All information relating to shareholders’ meetings will be available at (i) our headquarters, in the city of Salvador, State of Bahia, Brazil, at Av. Professor Magalhães Neto, No. 1752 – 10º andar, Zip Code 41810-012, and (ii) on the internet at our website (http://www.suzano.com.br/), the website of the CVM (www.cvm.gov.br) and the website of B3 (www.b3.com.br). The information included on these websites does not form part of this prospectus and is not incorporated by reference herein.

Table of Contents

Who May Call a Shareholders’ Meeting

The shareholders’ meetings may be called by our board of directors and by:

• any shareholder, if our board of directors fails to call a shareholders’ meeting within 60 days after the date which it is required to do so under applicable law and our bylaws;

• shareholders holding at least five percent of our capital stock, if our board of directors fails to call a meeting within eight days after receipt of a justified request to call the meeting by those shareholders indicating the proposed agenda;

• shareholders holding at least five percent of our capital stock if our board of directors fails to call a meeting within eight days after receipt of a request to call the meeting for the creation of the fiscal council; or by

• our fiscal council, if one is created, if the board of directors fails to call an annual shareholders’ meeting within one month after the date it is required to do so under applicable law and our bylaws, or if the fiscal council believes that there are important or urgent matters to be addressed.

Exceptionally, the chairman of our board of directors may also call a shareholders’ meeting, within two days of a determination by the B3 that the prices of our securities must be disclosed separately or regarding the suspension of trading of our common shares on the Novo Mercado , due to our non-compliance with the Novo Mercado regulations. All members of our board of directors must be replaced at such shareholders’ meeting.

Notice of a Shareholders’ Meeting

According to the Brazilian Corporation Law, all notices of general meetings must be published at least three times in the Diário Oficial do Estado da Bahia , as well as in the newspapers indicated in our registration form, which are currently “A Tarde” and “Valor Econônomico”. The first notice must be published no earlier than 15 days before the date of the first call of the meeting, and no later than eight days before the date of second call of the meeting. However, in certain circumstances, and upon the request of any shareholder, the CVM may require that the first notice be published 30 days prior to the meeting. The first notice must also be published 30 days prior to the meeting in the event that there are depositary receipts or securities traded abroad. The CVM may also, upon the request of any shareholder, terminate, up to 15 days, the period for calling the extraordinary general meeting, in order to understand and analyze the proposals to be submitted to the specific meeting. The notice must include, in addition to the place, date and time, the agenda of the meeting and, in the case of a proposed amendment to our bylaws, a description of the subject matter of the proposed amendment.

Conditions of Admission to Our Shareholders’ Meeting

In order to attend a shareholders’ meeting, shareholders must prove their status as shareholders and their ownership of shares to exercise the voting right by presenting his or her identity card and proof of deposit issued by the financial institution responsible for the bookkeeping of our common shares.

A shareholder may be represented at a shareholders’ meeting by a proxy, appointed less than one year before the meeting, who must be one of our shareholders, or one of our officers or directors, a lawyer or a financial institution represented by their manager.

Delisting From the Novo Mercado

At any time, we may delist our common shares from the Novo Mercado provided that shareholders representing the majority of our common shares approve the delisting and that we give at least 30 days’ written notice to the B3. The resolution must specify if the delisting will occur because the securities will no longer be traded on the Novo Mercado , or because we are going private. Our delisting from the Novo Mercado will not necessarily result in the loss of our registration as a public company on the B3.

If we delist from the Novo Mercado , by resolution taken at a shareholders’ meeting or if we are set to delist from Novo Mercado due to the implementation of a corporate restructuring transaction, in which the surviving company is not listed on the Novo Mercado within 120 days after the date of the shareholders’ meeting that approved such transaction, any controlling shareholder or group of controlling shareholders must conduct a tender offer for the acquisition of our outstanding shares, at a price per share that shall be no less than the economic value of those common shares as determined in a valuation report prepared by a specialized and independent company of recognized experience, which will be chosen at a shareholders’ meeting from a list of three institutions presented by our board of directors.

Where, absent a controlling shareholder, (1) at a shareholders’ meeting, a decision to delist from Novo Mercado is taken in order to permit our common shares to be traded outside the Novo Mercado or (2) if we delist as a result of a corporate reorganization, in which the surviving company is not listed on the Novo Mercado within 120 days after the date of the shareholders’ meeting that approved such transaction, the delisting will be contingent on a tender offer being launched. The same shareholders’ meeting shall define the party or parties responsible for launching the tender offer, which party or parties, attending the meeting will be required to undertake an express commitment to launch such tender offer. Absent such a decision, in case we delist as a result of a corporate reorganization, the shareholders who voted to approve such reorganization transaction will be responsible for conducting the tender offer.

The delisting due to violation of the provisions of applicable Novo Mercado listing rules is conditioned upon the launch of a public tender offer by the controlling shareholders for the acquisition of all outstanding shares at a price at least equivalent to its economic value. Where, absent a controlling shareholder, the delisting from Novo Mercado is due to a decision of our shareholders taken at a shareholders’ meeting, the shareholders voting to approve such decision shall be required to conduct the public tender offer.

Where, absent a controlling shareholder, the delisting from Novo Mercado is ordered due to a violation of the provisions of applicable Novo Mercado listing rules, resulting from an act of the management, the B3 shall require that our management call a shareholders’ meeting to decide on how to remedy the violation of the provisions of applicable Novo Mercado listing rules or to decide upon the delisting of our company from Novo Mercado . In case the shareholders decide for the delisting from de Novo Mercado , the shareholders at the shareholders’ meeting that approved such decision shall determine the responsibility for conducting the public tender offer and will be required to undertake an express commitment to launch such public tender offer.

The quorum for a shareholders’ meeting resolving such matter consists of shareholders representing at least 25% of our issued and outstanding shares on first call and, if that quorum is not reached, any percentage on second call. The decision must be made by an absolute majority of the votes of our outstanding shares of the shareholders present at the meeting, excluding, for such purposes, blank votes. All the expenses and costs incurred in connection with the preparation of the valuation report must be paid by the offeror.

The public offering notice must be communicated to the B3 and immediately disclosed to the market after the shareholders’ meeting which approved the delisting.

According to the Novo Mercado listing regulations and CVM regulations, in the event of a transfer of our shareholding control within 12 months following our delisting from the Novo Mercado , the selling controlling shareholder and the buyer, jointly and severally, must offer to acquire the remaining shares for the same price and terms offered to the selling controlling shareholder, adjusted for inflation, or, alternatively, must offer to pay the difference, if any, between the tender offer price obtained by the former shareholder, adjusted for inflation, and the price obtained by the controlling shareholder when selling her or his shares.

DESCRIPTION OF SUZANO ADSS AND SUZANO DEPOSIT AGREEMENT

American Depositary Shares

The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary (the “ Suzano Depositary ”), will register and deliver American Depositary Shares, also referred to as Suzano ADSs. Each Suzano ADS will represent two shares (or a right to receive two shares), subject to adjustment prior to the completion of the Merger with respect to the ADS-to-share ratio in effect as of the date of this prospectus, deposited with Itau Unibanco S.A. as custodian for the depositary in Brazil. Each Suzano ADS will also represent any other securities, cash or other property which may be held by the depositary. The deposited shares together with any other securities, cash or other property held by the depositary are referred to as the deposited securities. The depositary’s office at which the Suzano ADSs will be administered and its principal office are located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286.

You may hold Suzano ADSs either (A) directly (i) by having an American Depositary Receipt, also referred to as an ADR, which is a certificate evidencing a specific number of Suzano ADSs, registered in your name, or (ii) by having uncertificated Suzano ADSs registered in your name, or (B) indirectly by holding a security entitlement in Suzano ADSs through your broker or other financial institution that is a direct or indirect participant in The Depository Trust Company, also called DTC. If you hold Suzano ADSs directly, you are a registered Suzano ADS holder, also referred to in this description as an Suzano ADS holder. This description assumes you are an Suzano ADS holder. If you hold the Suzano ADSs indirectly, you must rely on the procedures of your broker or other financial institution to assert the rights of Suzano ADS holders described in this section. You should consult with your broker or financial institution to find out what those procedures are.

Registered holders of uncertificated Suzano ADSs will receive statements from the depositary confirming their holdings.

As a Suzano ADS holder, we will not treat you as one of our shareholders and you will not have shareholder rights. Brazilian law governs shareholder rights. The depositary will be the holder of the shares underlying your Suzano ADSs. As a registered holder of Suzano ADSs, you will have ADS holder rights. A deposit agreement among us, the depositary, Suzano ADS holders and all other persons indirectly or beneficially holding Suzano ADSs sets out ADS holder rights as well as the rights and obligations of the depositary. New York law governs the deposit agreement and the Suzano ADSs.

The following is a summary of the material provisions of the amended and restated deposit agreement that will be entered into by Suzano and the Suzano Depositary prior to the completion of the Merger. For more complete information, you should read the entire amended and restated deposit agreement and the form of ADR. For directions on how to obtain copies of those documents, once Suzano and the Suzano Depositary enter into such documents, see “Where You Can Find More Information”.

Dividends and Other Distributions

How will you receive dividends and other distributions on the shares?

The depositary has agreed to pay or distribute to Suzano ADS holders the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on shares or other deposited securities, upon payment or deduction of its fees and expenses. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of shares your Suzano ADSs represent.

Cash . The depositary will convert any cash dividend or other cash distribution we pay on the shares into U.S. dollars, if it can do so on a reasonable basis and can transfer the U.S. dollars to the United States. If that is not possible or if any government approval is needed and cannot be obtained, the amended and restated deposit agreement allows the depositary to distribute the foreign currency only to those Suzano ADS holders to whom it is possible to do so. It will hold the foreign currency it cannot convert for the account of the Suzano ADS holders who have not been paid. It will not invest the foreign currency and it will not be liable for any interest.

186

Table of Contents

Before making a distribution, any withholding taxes, or other governmental charges that must be paid will be deducted. See “Material Tax Considerations”. The depositary will distribute only whole U.S. dollars and cents and will round fractional cents to the nearest whole cent. If the exchange rates fluctuate during a time when the depositary cannot convert the foreign currency, you may lose some of the value of the distribution.

Shares . The depositary may distribute additional Suzano ADSs representing any shares we distribute as a dividend or free distribution. The depositary will only distribute whole Suzano ADSs. It will sell shares which would require it to deliver a fraction of a Suzano ADS (or Suzano ADSs representing those shares) and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash. If the depositary does not distribute additional Suzano ADSs, the outstanding Suzano ADSs will also represent the new shares. The depositary may sell a portion of the distributed shares (or Suzano ADSs representing those shares) sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in connection with that distribution.

Rights to purchase additional shares . If we offer holders of our securities any rights to subscribe for additional shares or any other rights, the depositary may (i) exercise those rights on behalf of Suzano ADS holders, (ii) distribute those rights to Suzano ADS holders or (iii) sell those rights and distribute the net proceeds to Suzano ADS holders, in each case after deduction or upon payment of its fees and expenses. To the extent the depositary does not do any of those things, it will allow the rights to lapse. In that case, you will receive no value for them. The depositary will exercise or distribute rights only if we ask it to and provide satisfactory assurances to the depositary that it is legal to do so. If the depositary will exercise rights, it will purchase the securities to which the rights relate and distribute those securities or, in the case of shares, new Suzano ADSs representing the new shares, to subscribing Suzano ADS holders, but only if Suzano ADS holders have paid the exercise price to the depositary. U.S. securities laws may restrict the ability of the depositary to distribute rights or Suzano ADSs or other securities issued on exercise of rights to all or certain Suzano ADS holders, and the securities distributed may be subject to restrictions on transfer.

Other Distributions . The depositary will send to Suzano ADS holders anything else we distribute on deposited securities by any means it thinks is legal, fair and practical. If it cannot make the distribution in that way, the depositary has a choice. It may decide to sell what we distributed and distribute the net proceeds, in the same way as it does with cash. Or, it may decide to hold what we distributed, in which case Suzano ADSs will also represent the newly distributed property. However, the depositary is not required to distribute any securities (other than Suzano ADSs) to Suzano ADS holders unless it receives satisfactory evidence from us that it is legal to make that distribution. The depositary may sell a portion of the distributed securities or property sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in connection with that distribution. U.S. securities laws may restrict the ability of the depositary to distribute securities to all or certain Suzano ADS holders, and the securities distributed may be subject to restrictions on transfer.

The depositary is not responsible if it decides that it is unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to any Suzano ADS holders. We have no obligation to register Suzano ADSs, shares, rights or other securities under the Securities Act. We also have no obligation to take any other action to permit the distribution of Suzano ADSs, shares, rights or anything else to Suzano ADS holders. This means that you may not receive the distributions we make on our shares or any value for them if it is illegal or impractical for us to make them available to you .

Deposit, Withdrawal and Cancellation

How are Suzano ADSs issued?

The depositary will deliver Suzano ADSs if you or your broker deposits shares or evidence of rights to receive shares with the custodian. Upon payment of its fees and expenses and of any taxes or charges, such as stamp taxes or stock transfer taxes or fees, the depositary will register the appropriate number of Suzano ADSs in the names you request and will deliver the Suzano ADSs to or upon the order of the person or persons that made the deposit.

187

Table of Contents

How can Suzano ADS holders withdraw the deposited securities?

You may surrender your Suzano ADSs to the depositary for the purpose of withdrawal. Upon payment of its fees and expenses and of any taxes or charges, such as stamp taxes or stock transfer taxes or fees, the depositary will deliver the shares and any other deposited securities underlying the Suzano ADSs to the Suzano ADS holder or a person the Suzano ADS holder designates at the office of the custodian. Or, at your request, risk and expense, the depositary will deliver the deposited securities at its office, if feasible. However, the depositary is not required to accept surrender of Suzano ADSs to the extent it would require delivery of a fraction of a deposited share or other security. The depositary may charge you a fee and its expenses for instructing the custodian regarding delivery of deposited securities.

How do Suzano ADS holders interchange between certificated Suzano ADSs and uncertificated Suzano ADSs?

You may surrender your ADR to the depositary for the purpose of exchanging your ADR for uncertificated Suzano ADSs. The depositary will cancel that ADR and will send to the Suzano ADS holder a statement confirming that the Suzano ADS holder is the registered holder of uncertificated Suzano ADSs. Upon receipt by the depositary of a proper instruction from a registered holder of uncertificated Suzano ADSs requesting the exchange of uncertificated Suzano ADSs for certificated Suzano ADSs, the depositary will execute and deliver to the Suzano ADS holder an ADR evidencing those Suzano ADSs.

Voting Rights

How do you vote?

Suzano ADS holders may instruct the depositary how to vote the number of deposited shares their Suzano ADSs represent. If we request the depositary to solicit your voting instructions (and we are not required to do so), the depositary will notify you of a shareholders’ meeting and send or make voting materials available to you. Those materials will describe the matters to be voted on and explain how Suzano ADS holders may instruct the depositary how to vote. For instructions to be valid, they must reach the depositary by a date set by the depositary. The depositary will try, as far as practical, subject to the laws of Brazil and the provisions of our articles of association or similar documents, to vote or to have its agents vote the shares or other deposited securities as instructed by Suzano ADS holders. If we do not request the depositary to solicit your voting instructions, you can still send voting instructions, and, in that case, the depositary may try to vote as you instruct, but it is not required to do so. Except by instructing the depositary as described above, you won’t be able to exercise voting rights unless you surrender your Suzano ADSs and withdraw the shares. However, you may not know about the meeting enough in advance to withdraw the shares. In any event, the depositary will not exercise any discretion in voting deposited securities and it will only vote or attempt to vote as instructed, as set forth in the amended and restated deposit agreement.

We cannot assure you that you will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that you can instruct the depositary to vote your shares. In addition, the depositary and its agents are not responsible for failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying out voting instructions. This means that you may not be able to exercise voting rights and there may be nothing you can do if your shares are not voted as you requested. In order to give you a reasonable opportunity to instruct the depositary as to the exercise of voting rights relating to securities deposited with the Suzano Depositary as part of our ADR program, if we request the Suzano Depositary to act, we agree to give the depositary notice of any such meeting and details concerning the matters to be voted upon at least 45 days in advance of the meeting date.

The depositary collects its fees for delivery and surrender of Suzano ADSs directly from investors depositing shares or surrendering Suzano ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal or from intermediaries acting for them. The depositary collects fees for making distributions to investors by deducting those fees from the amounts distributed or by selling a portion of distributable property to pay the fees.

The depositary may collect any of its fees by deduction from any cash distribution payable (or by selling a portion of securities or other property distributable) to Suzano ADS holders that are obligated to pay those fees. The depositary may generally refuse to provide fee-attracting services until its fees for those services are paid.

From time to time, the depositary may make payments to us to reimburse us for costs and expenses generally arising out of establishment and maintenance of the Suzano ADS program, waive fees and expenses for services provided to us by the depositary or share revenue from the fees collected from Suzano ADS holders. In performing its duties under the amended and restated deposit agreement, the depositary may use brokers, dealers, foreign currency dealers or other service providers that are owned by or affiliated with the depositary and that may earn or share fees, spreSuzano ADS or commissions.

Table of Contents

The depositary may convert currency itself or through any of its affiliates and, in those cases, acts as principal for its own account and not as agent, advisor, broker or fiduciary on behalf of any other person and earns revenue, including, without limitation, transaction spreSuzano ADS, that it will retain for its own account. The revenue is based on, among other things, the difference between the exchange rate assigned to the currency conversion made under the amended and restated deposit agreement and the rate that the depositary or its affiliate receives when buying or selling foreign currency for its own account. The depositary makes no representation that the exchange rate used or obtained in any currency conversion under the amended and restated deposit agreement will be the most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or that the method by which that rate will be determined will be the most favorable to Suzano ADS holders, subject to the depositary’s obligations under the amended and restated deposit agreement. The methodology used to determine exchange rates used in currency conversions is available upon request.

Payment of Taxes

You will be responsible for any taxes or other governmental charges payable on your Suzano ADSs or on the deposited securities represented by any of your Suzano ADSs. The depositary may refuse to register any transfer of your Suzano ADSs or allow you to withdraw the deposited securities represented by your Suzano ADSs until those taxes or other charges are paid. It may apply payments owed to you or sell deposited securities represented by your American Depositary Shares to pay any taxes owed and you will remain liable for any deficiency. If the depositary sells deposited securities, it will, if appropriate, reduce the number of Suzano ADSs to reflect the sale and pay to Suzano ADS holders any proceeds, or send to Suzano ADS holders any property, remaining after it has paid the taxes.

Tender and Exchange Offers; Redemption, Replacement or Cancellation of Deposited Securities

The depositary will not tender deposited securities in any voluntary tender or exchange offer unless instructed to do by an Suzano ADS holder surrendering Suzano ADSs and subject to any conditions or procedures the depositary may establish.

If deposited securities are redeemed for cash in a transaction that is mandatory for the depositary as a holder of deposited securities, the depositary will call for surrender of a corresponding number of Suzano ADSs and distribute the net redemption money to the holders of called Suzano ADSs upon surrender of those Suzano ADSs.

If there is any change in the deposited securities such as a sub-division, combination or other reclassification, or any merger, consolidation, recapitalization or reorganization affecting the issuer of deposited securities in which the depositary receives new securities in exchange for or in lieu of the old deposited securities, the depositary will hold those replacement securities as deposited securities under the amended and restated deposit agreement. However, if the depositary decides it would not be lawful and practical to hold the replacement securities because those securities could not be distributed to Suzano ADS holders or for any other reason, the depositary may instead sell the replacement securities and distribute the net proceeds upon surrender of the Suzano ADSs.

If there is a replacement of the deposited securities and the depositary will continue to hold the replacement securities, the depositary may distribute new Suzano ADSs representing the new deposited securities or ask you to surrender your outstanding ADSs in exchange for new ADSs identifying the new deposited securities.

If there are no deposited securities underlying Suzano ADSs, including if the deposited securities are cancelled, or if the deposited securities underlying Suzano ADSs have become apparently worthless, the depositary may call for surrender or of those Suzano ADSs or cancel those Suzano ADSs upon notice to the Suzano ADS holders.

Amendment and Termination

How may the amended and restated deposit agreement be amended?

We may agree with the depositary to amend the amended and restated deposit agreement and the ADRs without your consent for any reason. If an amendment adds or increases fees or charges, except for taxes and other governmental charges or expenses of the depositary for registration fees, facsimile costs, delivery charges or similar items, or prejudices a substantial right of Suzano ADS holders, it will not become effective for outstanding Suzano ADSs until 30 days after the depositary notifies Suzano ADS holders of the amendment. At the time an amendment becomes effective, you are considered, by continuing to hold your Suzano ADSs, to agree to the amendment and to be bound by the ADRs and the amended and restated deposit agreement as amended .

How may the amended and restated deposit agreement be terminated?

The depositary will initiate termination of the amended and restated deposit agreement if we instruct it to do so. The depositary may initiate termination of the amended and restated deposit agreement if:

• 60 days have passed since the depositary told us it wants to resign but a successor depositary has not been appointed and accepted its appointment;

• we delist our shares from an exchange on which they were listed and do not list the shares on another exchange;

• we appear to be insolvent or enter insolvency proceedings;

• all or substantially all the value of the deposited securities has been distributed either in cash or in the form of securities;

• there are no deposited securities underlying the Suzano ADSs or the underlying deposited securities have become apparently worthless; or

• there has been a replacement of deposited securities.

If the amended and restated deposit agreement will terminate, the depositary will notify Suzano ADS holders at least 90 days before the termination date. At any time after the termination date, the depositary may sell the deposited securities. After that, the depositary will hold the money it received on the sale, as well as any other cash it is holding under the amended and restated deposit agreement, unsegregated and without liability for interest, for the pro rata benefit of the Suzano ADS holders that have not surrendered their Suzano ADSs. Normally, the depositary will sell as soon as practicable after the termination date.

If the depositary is advised by counsel that it could be subject to material legal liability because Suzano failed to provide information required by Brazilian regulators, the depositary may terminate the amended and restated deposit agreement on as little as 15 days’ notice.

After the termination date and before the depositary sells, Suzano ADS holders can still surrender their Suzano ADSs and receive delivery of deposited securities, except that the depositary may refuse to accept a surrender for the purpose of withdrawing deposited securities or reverse previously accepted surrenders of that kind if it would interfere with the selling process. The depositary may refuse to accept a surrender for the purpose of withdrawing sale proceeds until all the deposited securities have been sold. The depositary will continue to collect distributions on deposited securities, but , after the termination date, the depositary is not required to register any transfer of Suzano ADSs or distribute any dividends or other distributions on deposited securities to the Suzano ADSs holder (until they surrender their Suzano ADSs) or give any notices or perform any other duties under the amended and restated deposit agreement except as described in this paragraph.

Limitations on Obligations and Liability

Limits on our Obligations and the Obligations of the Depositary; Limits on Liability to Holders of Suzano ADSs

In the amended and restated deposit agreement, we and the depositary agree to indemnify each other under certain circumstances.

Requirements for Depositary Actions

Before the depositary will deliver or register a transfer of Suzano ADSs, make a distribution on Suzano ADSs, or permit withdrawal of shares, the depositary may require:

• payment of stock transfer or other taxes or other governmental charges and transfer or registration fees charged by third parties for the transfer of any shares or other deposited securities;

• satisfactory proof of the identity and genuineness of any signature or other information it deems necessary; and

• compliance with regulations it may establish, from time to time, consistent with the amended and restated deposit agreement, including presentation of transfer documents.

Table of Contents

Your Right to Receive the Shares Underlying your Suzano ADSs

Suzano ADS holders have the right to cancel their Suzano ADSs and withdraw the underlying shares at any time except:

• when temporary delays arise because: (i) the depositary has closed its transfer books or we have closed our transfer books; (ii) the transfer of shares is blocked to permit voting at a shareholders’ meeting; or (iii) we are paying a dividend on our shares;

• when you owe money to pay fees, taxes and similar charges; or

• when it is necessary to prohibit withdrawals in order to comply with any laws or governmental regulations that apply to Suzano ADSs or to the withdrawal of shares or other deposited securities.

This right of withdrawal may not be limited by any other provision of the amended and restated deposit agreement.

Pre-release of Suzano ADSs

The amended and restated deposit agreement permits the depositary, under certain circumstances, to deliver Suzano ADSs before deposit of the underlying shares. This is called a pre-release of the Suzano ADSs. The depositary may also, under certain circumstances, deliver shares upon cancellation of pre-released Suzano ADSs (even if the Suzano ADSs are canceled before the pre-release transaction has been closed out). A pre-release is closed out as soon as the underlying shares are delivered to the depositary. The depositary may receive Suzano ADSs instead of shares to close out a pre-release. The depositary may pre-release Suzano ADSs only under the following conditions: (1) before or at the time of the pre-release, the person to whom the pre-release is being made represents to the depositary in writing that it or its customer owns the shares or Suzano ADSs to be deposited; (2) the pre-release is fully collateralized with cash or other collateral that the depositary considers appropriate; and (3) the depositary must be able to close out the pre-release on not more than five business days’ notice. In addition, the depositary will limit the number of Suzano ADSs that may be outstanding at any time as a result of pre-release, although the depositary may disregard the limit from time to time if it thinks it is appropriate to do so.

Direct Registration System

In the amended and restated deposit agreement, all parties to the amended and restated deposit agreement acknowledge that the DTC’s Direct Registration System, also referred to as DRS, and the Profile Modification System, also referred to as Profile, will apply to the Suzano ADSs. DRS is a system administered by DTC that facilitates interchange between registered holding of uncertificated Suzano ADSs and holding of security entitlements in Suzano ADSs through DTC and a DTC participant. Profile is feature of DRS that allows a DTC participant, claiming to act on behalf of a registered holder of uncertificated Suzano ADSs, to direct the depositary to register a transfer of those Suzano ADSs to DTC or its nominee and to deliver those Suzano ADSs to the DTC account of that DTC participant without receipt by the depositary of prior authorization from the Suzano ADS holder to register that transfer.

In connection with and in accordance with the arrangements and procedures relating to DRS/Profile, the parties to the amended and restated deposit agreement understand that the depositary will not determine whether the DTC participant that is claiming to be acting on behalf of an Suzano ADS holder in requesting registration of transfer and delivery as described in the paragraph above has the actual authority to act on behalf of the Suzano ADS holder (notwithstanding any requirements under the Uniform Commercial Code). In the amended and restated deposit agreement, the parties agree that the depositary’s reliance on and compliance with instructions received by the depositary through the DRS/Profile system and in accordance with the amended and restated deposit agreement will not constitute negligence or bad faith on the part of the depositary.

In the event that there is no controlling shareholder and the violation resulting in the delisting results from an act or failure to act of Fibria’s management, the Fibria Board of Directors must call a shareholders’ meeting to consider remediation of that violation or delisting from the Novo Mercado segment. If the shareholders’ meeting approves the delisting, it must determine the party or parties responsible for making the public tender offer. In addition, in the event that there is no controlling shareholder, if the B3 determines the suspension for trading of Fibria securities or that the quotation of Fibria securities be separately disclosed or due violation of the obligations provided in the Novo Mercado Listing Rules by act or failure to act of Fibria’s management, the President of the Fibria Board of Directors must call a shareholders’ meeting, within two days following the event, to consider remediation of that violation or, as applicable, the substitution of all members of the Fibria Board of Directors and/or the delisting from the Novo Mercado segment.

REGULATORY MATTERS

The completion of the Merger is conditioned on the receipt of approvals from various regulatory authorities in several jurisdictions, as described herein. The Fibria Controlling Shareholders and the Suzano Controlling Shareholders have agreed to certain terms with respect to the conditions precedent related to regulatory approvals. See “The Transaction Documents—The Merger Agreement—Conditions Precedent to the Completion of the Merger”. The discussion that follows provides information regarding the status of the filings with these regulators.

Although Suzano believes that it will be able to obtain the requisite consents, orders and approvals in a timely manner, neither Suzano nor Fibria can predict when or if they will do so, or if the required consents, orders and approvals will contain terms, conditions or restrictions that will adversely affect the Merger itself, Suzano, Fibria or their respective subsidiaries after the Merger is completed.

Antitrust Approvals Required for the Merger

Antitrust Clearance in Brazil

Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, Suzano is required to submit the Merger for the review of the Brazilian Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) of the Merger pursuant to the Law No. 12,529 of 2011. Under Brazilian antitrust law, Suzano is not permitted to consummate the acquisition of control of Fibria prior to receiving the final approval from the CADE. The CADE will determine whether our acquisition of Fibria’s control negatively impacts competitive conditions in the markets in which we and Fibria compete or adversely affects consumers in these markets. Although we believe that the CADE’s consideration of our acquisition of Fibria’s control will determine that there are no adverse effects to those competitive conditions or consumers, we can offer no assurances that the CADE will approve our acquisition of Fibria’s control or that the CADE will not impose conditions on the referred acquisition. Suzano officially filed the Merger for the approval of the CADE on June 29, 2018.

If the CADE, or any of the regulators mentioned below, require the sale of assets with capacity higher than 1.1 million tons of Fibria’s total installed pulp production capacity, Suzano will not be bound to make a sale offer at those levels in order to consummate the Merger. If these regulators require the sale of assets with capacity of up to 1.1 million tons (inclusive) of Fibria’s total installed pulp production capacity, Suzano will be bound to comply with the imposed restriction and to make the offer of assets with such capacity to win these approvals, and will also be bound to consummate the Merger, provided that the other applicable conditions to closing in the Voting Agreement have been met.

Antitrust Clearance in Jurisdictions Other Than Brazil

Suzano and Fibria derive revenues in other jurisdictions where merger or acquisition control filings or clearances are required, including, among others, approvals in the European Union, in China and in the United States. The Merger cannot be consummated until the closing conditions relating to applicable filings or clearances under the antitrust laws in the foregoing jurisdictions have been satisfied or waived.

United States

Pursuant to the Voting Agreement and as required by the HSR Act, each of Suzano and Fibria is required to file a pre-merger notification and report form with the DOJ and the FTC. We filed with the HSR on May 9, 2018, and on May 31, 2018, the FTC issued an early termination notice confirming that the transaction was cleared without restrictions in the United States of America.

203

Table of Contents

European Union

Pursuant to the Voting Agreement and to Council Regulation (EC) No. 139/2004, Suzano and Fibria are required to submit a draft notification to the European Commission of the Merger. We pre-filed with the European Commission on May 25, 2018.

China

Pursuant to the Voting Agreement and Chinese Antimonopoly Law of 2008, Suzano and Fibria are required to pre-notify the State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) of the Merger. We officially filed with the SAMR on July 2, 2018.

Other Jurisdictions

Suzano and Fibria will make merger or acquisition control filings in Turkey and Argentina. Clearance from the relevant antitrust authorities in Turkey will be required in order to complete the Merger, while completion of the Merger is not conditioned on clearance from Argentina having been achieved or waived.

Commitments by Suzano and Fibria to Obtain Regulatory Approvals

For a discussion on the commitments made by Suzano and Fibria in the Voting Agreement and the Merger Agreement to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals for the Merger, see “The Transaction Documents—The Merger Agreement—Conditions Precedent to the Completion of the Merger” and “The Transaction Documents—The Voting Agreement—Filing with the Antitrust and Regulatory Authorities”.

Other Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger

In addition to the antitrust approvals described herein, Suzano and Fibria is required to receive the approval, as applicable, of ANTAQ, which is the Brazilian regulatory agency that regulates aquatic transportation. This agency will assess if Suzano fulfills all of the financial, accounting, legal and technical requirements to operate the regulated assets currently owned by Fibria. Suzano and Fibria are required to communicate the closing to ANEEL, which is the Brazilian regulatory agency that regulates electric power.

LEGAL MATTERS

We will receive an opinion from Cescon, Barrieu, Flesch & Barreto Advogados, São Paulo, Brazil, with respect to the validity under Brazilian law of the Suzano Shares to be issued in connection with the Merger. We were advised as to certain matters of U.S. law by Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, New York, New York.

206

Table of Contents

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

We are incorporated under the laws of Brazil. Substantially all of our and our subsidiaries’ assets are located outside the United States. All of our directors and all our officers reside in Brazil. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon us or such persons or to enforce against them or us judgments obtained in U.S. courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.

We have been advised by our Brazilian counsel, Cescon, Barrieu, Flesch & Barreto Advogados, that a judgment of a U.S. court for civil liabilities predicated upon the federal securities laws of the United States may be enforced in Brazil, subject to certain requirements described below. A judgment against Suzano, Fibria, their respective directors and their respective officers and advisors named herein obtained in the United States, including, without limitation, any final judgment for payment of a sum certain of money rendered by any such court, would be enforceable in Brazil upon recognition thereof by the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice ( Superior Tribunal de Justiça , or “ STJ ”). Such recognition ( homologação ) will only occur if the U.S. judgment:

• fulfills all formalities required for its enforceability under the laws of the country where the foreign judgment is granted;

• is issued by a court of competent jurisdiction after proper service of process on the parties, which services must comply with Brazilian law if made in Brazil, or after sufficient evidence of the parties’ absence has been given, as established pursuant to applicable law;

• is effective under the laws of the country where the foreign judgment is granted, as provided for in Articles 961, §1º and 963, III of the Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure;

• is not contrary to Brazilian national sovereignty, public policy or public morality and does not violate human dignity (as provided for in Article 963 of the Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure);

• does not violate a final and unappealable decision issued by a Brazilian court;

• does not violate the exclusive jurisdiction of Brazilian courts; and

• is authenticated by a Brazilian consulate in the United States or, if the place of signing is contracting state to the Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents dated October 5, 1961, apostilled, and, in either case, is accompanied by a sworn translation into Portuguese, unless an exemption is provided by an international treaty to which Brazil is signatory.

The confirmation process may be time-consuming and may also give rise to difficulties in enforcing a foreign judgment in Brazil. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that confirmation of any judgment would be obtained or that the confirmation process would be conducted in a timely manner.

We also have been advised by our Brazilian counsel that original actions in connection with this prospectus predicated solely on the federal securities laws of the United States in Brazilian courts may be brought in Brazilian courts and that, subject to applicable law, Brazilian courts may enforce liabilities in such actions against us or the directors and officers and certain advisors named herein (provided that provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States do not contravene Brazilian public policy, good morals or national sovereignty). Although pursuant to our bylaws disputes between us and our shareholders are required to be resolved through arbitration, this mandatory arbitration requirement does not apply to actions against us, whether by holders of our shares or of our ADSs, that are predicated on U.S. federal securities laws, nor does our mandatory arbitration provision waive the rights of our U.S. shareholders or ADS holders to bring claims under the U.S. federal securities laws. See “Description of Suzano Shares and Suzano Bylaws—Arbitration”.

We have been further advised that a plaintiff, whether Brazilian or non-Brazilian, who resides outside Brazil during the course of litigation in Brazil must provide a bond to guarantee the payment of the court expenses and

207

Table of Contents

the defendant’s legal fees, if the plaintiff does not own real property in Brazil that could secure the payment. This bond of guarantee must have a value sufficient to satisfy the payment of court fees and defendant attorney’s fees, as determined by the relevant Brazilian court. This requirement does not apply (1) when an exemption is provided by an international agreement or treaty to which Brazil is signatory; (2) in the case of claims for collection on a título extrajudicial ; (3) in the case of enforcement of judgments (including foreign judgments that have been duly recognized by the STJ); or (4) counterclaims.

CHANGE IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

On August 18, 2016, our board of directors approved the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores Independentes (“ PwC ”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 and dismissed KPMG upon completion of its audit of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the two years ended December 31, 2016 and the issuance of its report thereon dated as of February 8, 2017. The decision to change accountants was made in compliance with Brazilian law, which requires rotations of auditors. On April 19, 2018, KPMG was appointed as our independent registered public accounting firm solely for the purpose of issuing an opinion as of and for the years referred to above in accordance with the audit standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB).

KPMG’s reports on our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the year ended December 31, 2015 and through May 16, 2018, there were no disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to KPMG’s satisfaction, would have caused KPMG to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in any of the reports it would have issued.

During the year ended December 31, 2015 and through May 16, 2018, there were no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of Form 20-F.

On September 5, 2016, we entered into a contract with PwC under which PwC was engaged to provide audit services for the fiscal years 2017, 2018 and 2019. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and through August 18, 2016, we did not consult with PwC regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction or regarding the type of audit opinion that might be rendered by PwC on our financial statements. Further, PwC did not provide any written or oral advice that was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to any such accounting, auditing or financial reporting matter or any matter being the subject of disagreement or defined as a “reportable event” or any other matter as defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of Form 20-F.

1.1 Major events in the six-month period ended June 30, 2018

a) Operational events

i) Debentures

On June 29, 2018, the Company issued R$ 4,681,100 in 6 th issue, single series, non-convertible debentures maturing in June 2026 with interest rate of 112.50% of Interbank Deposit Certificates (“CDI”).

The net proceeds will be fully used to partially pay the cash portion of the acquisition of the common shares of Fibria’s (Note 1.1 b) i)). For this debenture issue, denominated in Brazilian Real, the Company has already contracted a cross currency interest rate swap to fix the interest cost in US$ dollars plus 5.74%.

ii) Trucker´s strike

In May 2018, a general strike of truck drivers across Brazil interrupted the transportation of goods and products across the country for a few days, resulting in shortages of fuel and other products, causing a temporary suspension of production in most industries. Despite efforts to minimize the adverse impact of the strike, the Company’s production operations were suspended for a few days, resulting in a loss of production volume of approximately 80,000 tons of pulp and approximately 25,000 tons of paper. As of June 1 st , 2018, operations at Suzano’s plants were gradually resumed.

iii) Acquisition of land and forests in the state of São Paulo

On February 5, 2018, Suzano entered into an Agreement for the Purchase of Forestry Assets, Purchase of Rural Properties, Purchase Option and Other Covenants, with Conditions Precedent, with Duratex S.A. (“Duratex”), through itself and its affiliates, under which:

(i) it acquired around nine thousand and five hundred (9,500) hectares of rural land and one million and two hundred thousand cubic meters (1,200,000 m³) of forests, which reflects the potential of production of

F-8

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information as of June 30, 2018 . (In thousands of R$, unless otherwise stated)

existing and already implemented forests in the areas acquired, in the central region of the state of São Paulo, for R$ 308.1 million; and (ii) it acquired an option to purchase approximately twenty thousand (20,000) hectares of rural properties in the same region and five million and six hundred thousand (5,600,000) cubic meters of forests, which reflects the potential of production of existing and already implemented forests in the properties subject-matter of the portion, for the price of R$ 749.4 million, which was exercised by Suzano on July 2, 2018, as mentioned in Note 32 (i).

The financial settlement of the transaction occurred as follows:

1 st tranche – R$ 308,100: (i) R$ 157,800 on the closing date of the agreement (February 5, 2018); and (ii) R$ 150,300 to be paid on December 20, 2018 updated by the Extended Consumer Price Index (“IPCA”).

2 nd tranche – R$ 749,400: (i) R$ 347,700 on the closing date of the agreement; and (ii) R$ 347,700 to be paid on July 2, 2019 updated by the IPCA.

Brazil’s antitrust authority CADE approved the operation on April 4, 2018.

iv) Export prepayment facility

On February 8, 2018, the Company contracted, through its wholly owned subsidiary Suzano Pulp and Paper Europe S.A. (“Suzano Europe”), an export prepayment facility, structured in a syndicated form, amounting to US$ 750 million, with final maturity of 5 years and grace period of 3 years, which has Suzano and Suzano Trading Ltd. (“Suzano Trading”), another subsidiary of Suzano, as guarantors.

The proceeds will be used to settle the export prepayment transaction contracted on May 14, 2015, in the amount of US$ 600 million and to finance export operations.

The new operation reduces borrowing cost in U.S. dollar, extending the average debt term and eliminates financial covenants.

b) Corporate events

i) Voting Commitment and assumption of obligations

On March 15, 2018, Suzano Holding S.A., jointly with other controlling shareholders of the Company (collectively, the “Controlling Shareholders of the Company”), entered into with the controlling shareholders of Fibria Celulose S.A. (“Fibria” and, jointly with Suzano, the “Companies”), Votorantim S.A. and BNDES Participações S.A. – BNDESPAR (“BNDESPAR”) (collectively the “Controlling Shareholders of Fibria”), with Suzano as intervening consenting party, a Commitment to Vote and Assumption of Obligations, whereby the Controlling Shareholders of the Company and the Controlling Shareholders of Fibria agreed to exercise their voting rights to combine the operations and shareholding base of the Company and of Fibria, through corporate restructuring.

A corporate restructuring will be submitted to the shareholders of the Companies, which will result in the following: (a) the ownership, by Suzano, of all the shares issued by Fibria; and (b) in the receipt by the shareholders of Fibria, for each common share issued by Fibria, of (i) fifty-two reais and fifty centavos (R$ 52.50), restated at the variation of the CDI rate from March 15, 2018 to the effective payment date, to be paid in a single installment on the date of consummation of the operation; and (ii) 0.4611 common shares of Suzano, to be delivered on the date of consummation of the operation.

Shareholders of Fibria holding American Depositary Receipts (“ADR”) will be entitled to receive Suzano ADRs, observing the same exchange ratio. To do so, Suzano will adopt measures to (i) register the operation

F-9

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information as of June 30, 2018 . (In thousands of R$, unless otherwise stated)

(or its exemption, as applicable) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; and (ii) list the ADRs of Suzano in the same listing segment with the New York Stock Exchange where Fibria’s ADRs are currently listed.

Once the operation is consummated, the shares and ADRs issued by Fibria will no longer be traded on B3 S.A. and the New York Stock Exchange, respectively.

In accordance with the Voting Commitment, if any restrictions imposed by antitrust authorities in Brazil and/or other countries are too burdensome, Suzano may choose not to consummate the operation, upon payment to Fibria of a break-up fee equivalent to R$ 750 million. The break-up fee may entail certain other conditions of non-consummation of the operation, as expressly envisaged in the Voting Commitment.

In the context of the transaction and subject to the closing of the transaction, on March 15, 2018, the Controlling Shareholders of the Company entered into a Voting Agreement and other covenants with BNDES (“BNDESPAR Voting Agreement”), establishing certain governance commitments, financial and environmental policies of the Company, and limiting the transfer of the shares in the Company held by the Controlling Shareholders of the Company.

Suzano secured firm commitments from certain international financial institutions to contract financing facilities, in the total amount of US$ 9.2 billion, whose disbursement is conditioned, among other things, on the consummation of the operation. Proceeds from said financing will be used to finance a part of the installment in cash and combined exports of the companies. In order to obtain the credit facilities, the Company paid the bank a fee of US$ 51.750 (corresponding to R$ 172.006), this amount will be amortized up to the date of completion of the operation and the corresponding balance is classified under the heading of other accounts receivable.

On June 1, 2018, the Company received notice of the Federal Trade Commission, a competitive authority in the United States, granting early conclusion of the transaction analysis between Suzano and Fibria, which represents the authorization of the unrestricted operation in the United States of America.

Consummation of the operation is subject to typical conditions for operations of this nature, including approval by antitrust authorities in Brazil, China, European Union and other countries that come forward to examine the transaction.

ii) Acquisition of company in Tissue segment (Facepa)

On January 19, 2018, Brazil’s antitrust agency CADE approved without restrictions the acquisition of around 92.84% of the total capital of the mill of Facepa – Fábrica de Papel da Amazônia (“Facepa”) by Suzano.

On March 1, 2018, once all the conditions precedent were implemented and all the approvals obtained from competent government authorities, the direct and indirect acquisition of approximately 92.84% of the total capital and 99.99% of the common capital of Facepa was concluded. Suzano acquired 100% of the control of AGFA - Comércio, Administração e Participações Ltda. (“AGFA”), which holds 28.8% of Facepa, and directly acquired 64.0% from the controlling shareholders of Facepa, thus totaling 92.84%. AGFA is a company with no commercial operation and whose balance sheet basically includes the investment in Facepa. The Facepa’s equity in February, 2018 was R$ 122.6 million, of which 113.8 million represents Suzano’s interest and R$ 8.8 million refers to the non-controlling interest.

With the acquisition, in addition to Facepa’s units in Belém (PA) and Fortaleza (CE), the Company already operates its own sanitary paper units in Mucuri (BA) and Imperatriz (MA).

The amount paid for the acquisition was R$ 267,876, made on the date of the acquisition and a contingent amount of R$ 40,000, which is conditioned on the non-materialization of indemnifiable losses by the sellers, totaling R$ 307,876.

The Company did not finalize the identification and measurement of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in this business combination and recognized the consideration transferred preliminarily as intangible assets.

iii) Acquisition of company in the energy segment (PCH Mucuri)

On February 19, 2018, after the fulfillment of all the conditions precedent and after approval was obtained from competent government authorities, the operation with Queiroz Galvão Energia S.A. for the acquisition of all the shares issued by Mucuri Energética S.A. (“PCH Mucuri”) was concluded. PCH Mucuri owns a small hydroelectric plant located in the cities of Carlos Chagas and Pavão in the State of Minas Gerais.

2 Presentation of the Unaudited condensed consolidated interim

2.1 Preparation basis and presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information was prepared and is presented in accordance with international standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (“IASB”).

The interim information was prepared using the historical cost as the basis of value, except for certain financial assets and liabilities and biological assets that are measured at fair value.

The Company affirms that all the information relevant to its interim information is reported and that it corresponds to that used by the Management for its administration.

2.1.1 Condensed consolidated

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information was prepared based on the information provided by Suzano and its subsidiaries on the reporting date, as well as in accordance with consistent accounting practices and policies, except for Facepa, whose reporting date is May 31, 2018, but whose information does not have significant impact on consolidated result.

The subsidiaries are consolidated as from the date of ownership control up to the date control ceases to exist. In the case of joint control (joint venture) with other companies, these investments are measured by the equity method for the consolidated interim information.

In the consolidation process, the balances in the balance sheet and income statement accounts corresponding to the transactions carried out with subsidiaries are eliminated, as well as the unrealized gains and losses and the investments in these subsidiaries and their respective equity accounting results.

2.2 Revised of comparative figures

The financial statements as of December 31, 2017, presented for comparison purposes, were revised to reflect the reclassifications of advances for the acquisition of wood, in the amount of R$ 12,870, from Other

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information as of June 30, 2018 . (In thousands of R$, unless otherwise stated)

Accounts Receivable to Advances to Suppliers. The adjustment was a reclassification between items of Current Assets, did not change the total of this group, and also do not change the total of the Assets. The Company concluded the revision is not relevant to the financial statements.

3 Accounting polices

The interim financial information was prepared using accounting practices consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial statements at December 31, 2017, except for the application of the new accounting standards as of January 1 st , 2018, although, despite the application, there was no material impact on the interim information, as mentioned in the financial statements as of December 31, 2017. This interim financial information should be considered jointly with the annual financial statements.

3.1 Accounting policies adopted

3.1.1 Financial instruments – IFRS 9

IFRS 9 replaces the provisions of IAS 39 that relate to the recognition, classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, derecognition of financial instruments, impairment of financial assets and hedge accounting. The Company opted for the modified transition method that comparative figures have not been restated.

The adoption of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments from January 1 st , 2018 resulted in changes in accounting policies however considering the assessment made by Company there was no material impact or adjustments in January 1 st , 2018 due to the new standard.

(i) Classification and measurement

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: (a) amortized cost and (b) at fair value through profit or loss. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired as explained below:

(a) Amortized cost

Are financial assets held by the Company (i) in order to receive their contractual cash flow and not to sell to realization a profit or loss and (ii) whose contractual terms give rise, on specified dates, to cash flows that exclusively, payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

It includes the balance of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. Any changes are recognized in income statement under “Financial income” or “Financial expenses”, depending on the outcome.

(b) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

That are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories.

Are the balance of financial investments and derivative financial instruments. Any changes are recognized in the income statement under “Financial income” or “Financial expenses”, depending on its outcome.

(ii) Impairment of financial assets

The Company revised its impairment methodology under IFRS 9. On January 1 st , 2018, the Company started to apply IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade accounts receivable. The total impact of the change in impairment methodology on January 1 st , 2018 was not material.

3.1.2 Revenue recognition – IFRS 15

The Company has adopted IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers on January 1 st , 2018 which resulted in changes in accounting policies, opting the modified transition method that comparative figures have not been restated.

The Company recognizes revenues from contracts with customers as at which the products to customers transfer of control, represented by the ability to determine the use of products and obtain substantially all the remaining benefits from the products.

The Company follows the conceptual framework of the standard, based on the five-step model: (i) identification of contracts with customers; (ii) identification of performance obligations under contracts; (iii) determining the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligation provided for in the contracts and (v) recognition of revenue when the performance obligation is met.

The transaction confirmation is based on the parameters provided by the corresponding Incoterms (International Commercial Terms) and credit confirmation to the completion of the transaction. Revenue is the net sales revenue, net of taxes, discounts and returns. The revenue is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised good or service to a costumer (which is when the costumer obtains control of that good or service).

(a) Sale of products

The recognition of revenue for domestic and export pulp and paper sales is based on the following principles:

(i) Domestic market - sales are mainly made on credit. Revenue is recognized when the customer receives the product, whether on the carrier’s premises or at its own premises, at which rewards of ownership are transferred and the performance obligation is satisfied.

(ii) Export market - export orders are normally supplied from third party warehouses located near strategic markets; sales are mainly made on credit. Revenue is recognized as per the Incoterm parameters.

3.2 New standards, revisions and interpretations not yet in force

IASB issued and approved the following accounting standards/interpretations that are not yet effective and the Company did not early adopt them for the preparation of this interim information.

The Management evaluated or is evaluating and measuring the impacts of adopting the following standards/interpretations:

i) IFRS 16 – Leases – It replaces IAS 17 and essentially requires that lessees recognize future payments in their liabilities and the right to use a leased item in assets for practically all lease agreements. Therefore, financial lease and operating lease agreements receive similar accounting treatment, although certain short-term leases or those for small amounts are outside the scope of this standard. This standard will be effective as of January 1 st , 2019.

The Company, based on preliminary assessments, believes that the biggest impact produced by this standard is related to the recognition in the balance sheet of the lease agreements of land used to plant eucalyptus forests, with terms of up to 3 cycles of forest formation, around 21 years (Note 20.2), but for the reporting date, the Company was still analyzing these and other lease agreements, as well as the transition criterion to be adopted to implement the new Standard.

F-13

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information as of June 30, 2018 . (In thousands of R$, unless otherwise stated)

ii) IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments – Clarifies the accounting of tax positions that have not yet been accepted by tax authorities. Both IAS 12/CPC 32 Income Taxes and the new interpretation IFRIC 23 apply only to Income Tax and Social Contribution. IFRIC 23 does not introduce new disclosures, but reinforces the need to comply with certain reporting requirements on (i) judgments made; (ii) assumptions or other estimates used; and (iii) potential impact of uncertainties that are not reflected in the financial statements. This standard will be effective as of January 1 st , 2019.

The Company is assessing the changes introduced by this new interpretation and, based on preliminary analyses made until the closing of this interim information, estimates that there will be no significant impact on its interim information.

Liability exposure (9,885,452 ) (6,857,245 )

Foreign denominated balances are primarily denominated in US Dollars.

Sensitivity analysis – foreign exchange exposure

For market risk analysis, the Company uses scenarios to jointly evaluate the long and short positions in foreign currency, and the possible effects on its results. The probable scenario represents the amounts already booked, as they reflect the translation into Brazilian reais on the base date of the balance sheet.

The other scenarios were created considering the depreciation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar at the rates of 25% and 50%.

4.4.2 Interest rate risk

Fluctuations in interest rates could result in increase or decrease in costs of new financing and operations already contracted.

The Company constantly seeks alternatives to use financial instruments in order to avoid negative impacts on its cash flows.

Sensitivity analysis – exposure to interest rates

For market risk analysis, the Company uses scenarios to evaluate the sensitivity that variations in operations impacted by the rates: Interbank Deposit Rates (“CDI”) , Long Term Interest Rate (“TJLP”) and London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) may have on its results. The probable scenario represents the amounts already booked, as they reflect the best estimate of the Management.

Fair value does not represent an obligation for immediate disbursement or cash receipt, given that such effect will only occur on the dates of contractual fulfillment or on the maturity of each transaction, when the result will be determined, depending on the case and market conditions on agreed dates.

Contracts outstanding on June 30, 2018 are over-the-counter operations without any margin or early settlement clause imposed due to mark-to-market variations.

As mentioned in Note 1.1 b) i) related to the corporate reorganization transaction with Fibria, the Company obtained firm commitments from certain international financial institutions to contract financing, totaling US$ 9.2 billion, whose disbursement is conditional, among others. other conditions, to the consummation of

the transaction. The proceeds of such financing will be used to settle part of the cash portion of this transaction determined in Reais-R $. In order to mitigate the currency risk between the origin of dollar resources and the commitment in Reais, the Company increased the use of the currency hedge derivatives in the period.

As the business under acquisition is usually precified in US$ and the guaranteed credit line obtained is also in US$, management strategy was to hedge the final consideration to be paid in US$, entering into derivative contracts. The results with these derivatives are as follows: (i) Zero-cost collar (R$ vs US$) in the amount of US$ 1.3 billion (notional in US$) representing R$ 288,088 at fair value; (ii) NDF (R$ vs US$) in the amount of US$ 3.5 billion (notional in US$) representing R$ 1,144,479 at fair value; and (iii) Swap CDI vs Fixed (US$) in the amount of US$ 1.25 billion (notional in US $) representing R$ 142,115 at fair value, totaling an accumulated financial loss with derivatives of R$ 1,574,682 for the period.

Based on the calculation above, the amount of R$ 351,513 was considered as minimum mandatory dividends for fiscal year 2017, of which the net amount of R$169,860 was paid as interest on own capital, with the balance of R$ 181,653 remaining payable. The difference of R$ 1,373 between the amount previously disclosed in December 31, 2017 (R$ 180,28) and the minimum dividend calculated in accordance with article 26, c), item ii) of the Bylaws off the Company was deemed immaterial by the Management and therefore the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 will not be restated.

Even though the minimum mandatory dividend amounted R$ 351,513, Management submitted to the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 26, 2018, and approved the proposal for total dividends related to the fiscal year of 2017 in the amount of R$ 380,115, which was paid on December 11, 2017 by interest on equity the amount of R$ 199,835 and on May 9, 2018 the remaining balance.

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

3.1 Principal accounting policies

3.1.1 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes balances of cash, banks and highly liquid investments maturing within 90 days from their initial contracting date, which are subject to insignificant risk of change in their value.

3.1.2 Financial assets and liabilities

a) Overview

Financial instruments are recognized as of the date the Company becomes party of financial instruments contractual provisions. These are initially recorded at their fair value, plus transaction costs which are directly attributable to their acquisition or issuance, except for the financial assets and liabilities classified under the fair value through profit or loss category, where these costs are directly recorded as financial income. Their subsequent measure occurs every balance sheet date according to IFRS standards for each type of financial assets and liabilities category.

The Company does not adopt hedge accounting.

The fair value of financial instruments actively traded on the organized markets is determined based on the market quotes on the balance sheets closing dates. In the lack of an active market, the fair value is determined through valuation techniques, which include the use of recent market arm’s length transactions, benchmark to the fair value of similar financial instruments, discounted cash flows analysis or other valuation models.

In the absence of a quoted price, the gain or loss after the initial recognition arising from the difference between the fair value and present value of cash flow is recognized in the statement of income (loss).

b) Financial assets

Financial assets are classified in the categories below according to the purpose to which they were acquired or issued:

i. Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss

This category includes financial assets held for trading, assets designated in the initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss and derivatives. They are classified as held for trading if originated with the purpose of sale or repurchase in the short term and measured at their fair value at every balance sheet date. Interest rates, exchange variation and those variations deriving from fair value valuation are recognized as financial income or expenses in the income statement when incurred.

ii. Loans and receivables

This category includes non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments, but not quoted on the active market. After initial recognition, they are measured by the amortized cost through the effective interest rate method. Interest rates, exchange variation, less impairment, when applicable, are recognized as financial income or expenses in the income statement when incurred.

The Company does not hold financial assets that would be classified in the held-to-maturity investments category.

c) Financial liabilities

F-79

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

Financial liabilities are classified between the categories below according to the nature of financial instruments contracted or issued:

i. Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss

These include financial liabilities usually traded before maturity, liabilities designated in the initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss and derivatives. They are measured by their fair value at every balance sheet date. Interest rates, monetary restatement, exchange variation and those variations deriving from fair value valuation, where applicable, are recognized in the income statement when incurred.

ii. Other liabilities

Other liabilities are initially recognized at fair value, net of any attributable transaction costs and, subsequently, stated at the amortized cost through the effective interest rate method. The interest rates, and exchange variation, when applicable, are recognized in the income statement when incurred.

3.1.3 Trade accounts receivable

Trade accounts receivable from customers are recorded at the nominal amount on the sale date in the normal course of the Company’s activities, plus exchange rate variation in case of amounts denominated in foreign currency. Considering the short average term for receipt of accounts receivable, their amount corresponds to fair value. If the receivables term is equivalent to one year or less, receivables are classified under current assets, otherwise they are presented as non-current assets.

Based on an individual analysis, an impairment is accrued in an amount considered sufficient by Management to support losses in the accounts receivable. The expense is recognized in the income statement as “Selling Expenses”.

3.1.4 Inventories

Inventories are shown at the lowest value between average acquisition or production cost, net of recoverable taxes, and its net realizable value. Imports in transit are presented at the cost incurred until the balance sheet date. Cost of wood transferred from biological assets is equivalent to its fair value plus harvest and freight costs.

The balance of inventories is presented net of estimated losses established to support impairment losses identified or estimated by Management.

3.1.5 Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets held for sale are classified as such if it is highly probable that they will be recovered primarily through sale instead of their continuous use and when sale is highly probable.

They are measured by the lowest amount between their book value and their fair value less selling expenses.

Possible impairment loss is initially allocated to goodwill, in the case of investment, and then to remaining assets and liabilities. Losses arising from this valuation are recognized in profit or loss. Once classified as held for sale, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are no longer amortized or depreciated.

F-80

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

3.1.6 Biological assets

Biological assets (reforestation eucalyptus forests, with a seven-year growth cycle from planting to harvest) are measured at fair value, less estimated sales costs during the cutting process. Fair value was calculated using the discounted cash flow method in accordance with the yield cycle of these assets.

Significant assumptions in calculating the fair value of biological assets are shown in Note 13. The fair value of biological assets is detailed calculated semiannually, however in a quarterly basis the Company evaluated the main assumptions to confirm that is no significant difference that could impact the fair value of biological assets registered in prior period.

Gain or loss from changes in fair value of biological assets is recognized in the period they occur, in other operating income/expenses. The depletion value of the biological assets is based on harvest of wood and included the previous recognized fair value.

3.1.7 Investments

Investments are represented by the Company’s interest in other associates or in jointly-controlled companies (joint venture) and measured by the equity method of accounting.

3.1.8 Business combination

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method when control is transferred to the Company. The cost of an acquisition is measured by the sum of consideration transferred, measured at fair value on the acquisition date. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition are recorded as expense when incurred.

Initially, the goodwill is measured as the surplus of the consideration transferred in relation to the net assets acquired at fair value. After initial recognition, the goodwill is measured at cost, less any accumulated impairment.

3.1.9 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment items are recorded at the cost of acquisition or construction, net of recoverable taxes, including interest and other financial charges incurred during the project design or development, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated probable impairment losses, when incurred.

Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method in the profit or loss statement of the year, based on the economic-useful life of each item (Note 15).

Property, plant and equipment from financial lease agreements are recognized by the lower amount between the present value of minimum lease payments and the fair value of the related assets, plus, when applicable, initial direct costs incurred in the transaction. Depreciation is based on the estimated useful life of the asset.

Annually, the Company revised the useful life of its assets based on use and estimated use of assets and did not identify the need for adjustments to the used economic useful life.

Maintenance and repair expenses of key industrial equipment that do not significantly increase the useful life of these assets, referred to as General Stoppage costs, are recorded directly is the income statement in the year when they are incurred in costs of goods sold.

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

3.1.10 Intangible assets

i) Goodwill based on expected future profitability

Goodwill is the positive difference between the amount transferred for acquisition and the net fair value of assets acquired from a company. Goodwill should be attributed to one or more Cash Generating Units (”CGU’s”), which are subject to impairment tests at least once a year and it’s not amortized.

ii) Intangible assets with defined useful life

Other intangible assets acquired by the Company that have defined useful lives are measured at cost, less amortization based on the useful lives and accumulated impairment losses, when incurred.

3.1.11 Impairment of non-financial assets

Assets with indefinite useful life, such as goodwill, are not subject to amortization and are tested annually to identify possible need for impairment. Goodwill impairment is reviewed annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate possible impairment.

Assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value cannot be recovered. An impairment loss is recognized when the book value of an asset exceeds its recoverable value, which is the highest between the fair value of an asset less its disposal costs and value in use.

For the purposes of impairment assessment assets are grouped in the lowest levels for which cash in flows are identified separately CGU. For this test, goodwill is allocated to the CGU or groups of CGU that should benefit from the business combination from which the goodwill originated, and are identified according to the operating segment.

Non-financial assets, except goodwill, which have been adjusted for impairment, are reviewed subsequently for analysis of a possible reversal of impairment on the balance sheet date. Goodwill impairment recognized in the income statement should not be reversed.

3.1.12 Dividends and interest on own capital

Distribution of dividends or interest on own capital is recognized as liabilities, pursuant to corporate law and the Company’s bylaws, up to the limit of minimum mandatory dividends. Any additional dividend declared by Management is presented under proposed dividends, together with the profit reserves in shareholders’ equity. When approved by the shareholders, the amount is transferred to current liabilities.

3.1.13 Other assets and liabilities (current and non-current)

Assets are recognized only when it is probable that the economic benefit associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and its cost or value can be measured reliably.

A liability is recognized when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation arising from a past event, and it is probable that an economic resource will be required to settle this liability.

3.1.14 Trade accounts payable

Trade accounts payable are obligations payable for goods or services that were acquired in the normal course of business. They are classified as current liabilities if payment is due in up to one year, or non-current liabilities if payable in a longer term.

They are initially recognized at their fair value and, subsequently, measured at amortized cost using the effective tax rate method.

3.1.15 Loans and financing

Loans and financing are initially recognized at their fair value, net of costs incurred in the transaction and are subsequently stated at amortized cost. Any difference between the amounts raised (net of transaction costs) and the total amount payable is recognized in the statement of income during the period in which the loans are outstanding, using the effective tax rate method.

Loans and financiang are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer the settlement of liabilities for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.

General and specific loan costs directly attributed to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualified asset, which is an asset that necessarily demands a substantial period of time to be ready for use or sale, are capitalized as a part of the cost of asset when it is probable that they will result in future economic benefits for the entity and that these costs may be measured with reliability. Other loan costs are recognized as expense in the period they are incurred.

3.1.16 Current and deferred income tax and social contribution

The current and deferred income tax and social contribution are calculated based on the tax laws in force on the balance sheet date in countries where the Company operates, and are recognized in the income statement, except at the proportion they are related with items directly recorded in shareholders’ equity.

Deferred income tax and social contribution are recognized using the balance sheet method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their amounts in the financial statements, except in business combinations whose initial recognition of an asset or liability does not affect the accounting or tax result.

Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented net in balance sheet when there is the legal right and intention to offset them upon the calculation of current assets, and when they are related to the same tax authority and the same legal entity.

Deferred income tax and social contribution arising from recognized for tax losses, tax credits and unused deductible temporary differences are recognized when it is probable that future profits subject to taxation will be available to be used against such assets.

Deferred income tax and social contribution assets are revised at each reporting date and will be derecognized as their realization is no longer probable.

3.1.17 Contingent assets and liabilities

3.1.20 Share based payments

Plan-related expenses are firstly recognized in the income statement as a corresponding entry to financial liabilities during the vesting period (grace period) when services will be rendered. The financial liability is measured by its fair value every balance sheet date and its variation is recorded in the income statement as administrative expenses.

In case of option exercise paid in cash, the Company settles the financial liability.

3.1.21 Government grants and assistance

Government grants and assistance are recognized when it is reasonably certain that the conditions established by the granting governmental authority were observed and that these subsidies will be obtained.

The Company sells, indirectly, the surplus energy produced as a by-product of the industrial process.

c) Financial income

Financial income is recognized according to the term elapsed on an accrual basis using the effective tax rate method.

3.1.24 Leases

The Company leases certain property, plant and equipment items. Leases of property, plant and equipment, in which the Company has substantially all risks and benefits of ownership, are classified as financial leases. These are capitalized at the start of the lease at the lowest value between the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of minimum lease payments.

Each lease installment paid is allocated partially to liabilities and partially to financial charges, thereby obtaining a constant rate on the debt balance payable. The corresponding liabilities, net of financial charges, are included in loans. Interest on financial expenses is recognized in the statement of income during the lease period, to produce a constant periodical interest rate on the balance of liabilities for each period. Depreciation is based on the estimated useful life of the asset.

Payments of operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognized in the statement of income during the lease period.

3.1.25 Related-party transactions

The operations with related parties must observe typical market prices and conditions for similar transaction as well the corporate governance practices adopted by the Company and those recommended and/or required by law.

3.2 Critical estimates, judgments and accounting assumptions

When preparing these financial statements, Management used estimates, judgments and accounting assumptions about the future affecting the application of the Companies’ accounting policies and policies and the amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from such estimates.

The Company reviews its estimates and assumptions continuously and any change thereof is prospectively recognized.

See below information on judgments and assumptions used while applying accounting policies that have significant effects on the amounts recognized in the financial statements and which have significant risk of causing material adjustment:

3.2.1 Financial Instruments

The fair values of quoted financial instruments are based on current market prices. If the market for a financial instruments is not active, the Company establishes the fair value using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm’s length transactions, reference to other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis, and option pricing models making maximum use of market inputs and relying as little as possible on entity-specific inputs. (Note 4)

3.2.2 Biological assets

The discounted cash flow methodology is used to calculate the fair value of forest biological assets, whereby several critical economic and forest assumptions are made with a high level of judgment (Note 3.1.6 and 13).

3.2.3 Useful life and recoverable value of tangible and intangible assets

The useful life of relevant tangible assets was defined by management and in the specifications of machine and equipment manufacturers, at the operational level of industrial units and the quality of preventive and corrective maintenance. The intangible assets with defined useful life are defined by management. These estimated involves a high degree of judgment and uncertainties. In the case of events or changes in circumstances indicanting that the book value of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable, Management will re-evaluate and adjust the asset’s useful life according to the new outlook. (Notes 15 and 16).

3.2.4 Deferred income tax and social contribution

The recognition and amount of deferred tax assets depend on the future generation of taxable income, which requires the use of estimates related to the Company’s future performance.

These estimates are part of a long-term plan, which is reviewed annually by Management and submitted to Board of Directors for the approval. This plan is drawn up using several macroeconomic variables, such as exchange and interest rates; variables in the market segment, such as curves of expected offer/supply and projected sale prices; operating variables, such as expected production costs and volumes. This set of variables evidences the Company’s level of judgment regarding the expected materialization of these assumptions and uncertainties.

F-86

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

Management understands that, based on projected results and recorded results, the realization of deferred credit assets is probable (Note 12).

3.2.5 Actuarial liability

The Company has actuarial commitments of post-employment benefits related to health insurance for former employees. These commitments and costs depend on a series of economic and demographic assumptions, mainly discount rates, long-term inflation, variation in medical and hospital costs, and variability in the actuarial table used, which imply some level of judgment regarding the assumptions adopted.

These estimates are reviewed annually by management and can differ from the actual results due to changes in market and economic conditions (Note 22).

3.2.6 Contingencies

The Company is currently involved in certain labor, civil and tax proceedings. The provision for legal proceeds is recorded based on Management’s evaluation and on the advice of internal and external legal counsel, and are subject to a high level of judgment (Note 21).

3.3 New standards, revisions and interpretations not yet effective

The following standards were issued and approved by IASB, which are not effective yet and the Company has not early adopted while preparing these financial statements.

The Management evaluated or is evaluating and measuring the impacts of the adoption of the following standards:

a) IFRS 9 replaces the provisions of IAS 39 that relate to the recognition, classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, derecognition of financial instruments, impairment of financial assets. IFRS 9 becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018.

The Company evaluated the changes introduced by this new standard and, based on analyses conducted up to the conclusion of these financial statements, concluded that the mapped impact expected on estimated losses with allowance for doubtful accounts will be immaterial in relation to the trade accounts receivables. For other financial instruments, the Company did not identify any impact in relation to its current structure of financial instruments.

b) IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers – It replaces the existing IAS 18 / IAS 11, IFRS 15 mainly determines that revenue should be recognized through transfer of control to the client instead of transfer of risks and benefits. While IAS 18 established that the achievement of performance obligations, recognized over the time or in a certain moment, identified in agreements are crucial for evaluating the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for the control of goods or services, hence the portion of revenue to be recognized. IFRS 15 is effective for the years beginning on January 1, 2018.

The Company evaluated the changes introduced by this new standard and, based on analyses, did not identify any changes that cause any impact on its financial statements, given that: (i) all the revenue recognition criteria are already met; and (ii) the Company does not have performance obligations after the delivery of assets, that is, the Company meets the performance obligation by transferring the asset promised to the customer in a specific moment. This procedure is applicable to the Company for the domestic and export markets.

F-87

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

c) IFRS 16 – Leases – replaces IAS 17 and essentially requires that lessees recognize future payments in liabilities and the right to use a leased item in assets for practically all lease agreements. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. This standard will be effective as of January 1, 2019.

The Company, based on preliminary assessments, believes that the biggest impact of this standard is related to the recognition on the balance sheet of the lease agreements for land used to plant eucalyptus forests, with 3 forest cycles of eucalyptus, approximately 21 years (Note 20.3 i)). However until the reporting date, the Company continues to analyse these and other lease agreements to choose the transition criterion to the new Standard.

d) IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments – Clarifies the accounting of tax positions that have not yet been accepted by tax authorities. Both IAS 12/CPC 32 Income Taxes and the new interpretation IFRIC 23 apply only to Income Tax and Social Contribution. IFRIC 23 does not introduce new disclosures, but reinforces the need to comply with certain reporting requirements on (i) judgments made; (ii) assumptions or other estimates used; and (iii) potential impact of uncertainties that are not reflected in the financial statements. This standard will be effective as of January 1, 2019.

The Company is assessing the changes introduced by this new interpretation and, based on analyses made until the closing of this financial information, did not identify any major changes that cause any impact on its financial information.

4 Financial Instruments and Risks

4.1 Management of financial risks

a) Overview

The Company’s Management is focused on generating consistent and sustainable results over time. Factors of external risk related to fluctuations in market prices, exchange variations and volatility of macroeconomic indexes may introduce an unwelcome level of volatility in the Company’s cash flows and income statement. To manage this volatility, in a way that does not distort or hinder its consistent growth over a long time, Suzano has policies and procedures for managing market risk.

These policies aim to: (i) protect the Company’s cash flows and assets against fluctuations in the market prices of raw material and products, exchange rates and interest rates, price and adjustment indexes, or other assets or instruments traded in liquid or other markets (“market risk”) to which the value of the assets, liabilities and cash flows are exposed; and (ii) optimize the process of contracting financial instruments for protection against exposure to risk, drawing on natural hedges and correlations between the prices of different assets and markets, avoiding any waste of funds used to contract inefficient operations. All financial transactions entered into by the Company have the objective of protecting it against existing exposures, with the assumption of new risks prohibited, except those arising from its operating activities.

The process to manage market risk comprises the following sequential and recurring phases: (i) identification of risk factors and the exposure of the value of the assets, cash flows and results of the Company to market risks; (ii) measuring and reporting the values at risk; (iii) evaluating and formulating strategies for managing market risks; and (iv) implementing and monitoring the performance of strategies.

The Company uses liquid financial instruments: (i) does not contract leveraged operations or other forms of embedded options that change its purpose of protection (hedge); (ii) it does not have double indexed debt or

F-88

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

other forms of implied options; and (iii) does not have any operations that require margin deposits or other forms of collateral for counterparty credit risk.

The main financial risk factors considered by Management are:

• Liquidity risk;

• Credit risk;

• Currency risk;

• Interest rate risks;

• Risk of changes in commodity prices; and

• Capital risk.

The Company does not adopt hedge accounting. Therefore, all results (gains and losses) from derivative operations (settled and outstanding) are fully recognized in the Consolidated Statements of income/(loss), as presented in Note 26.

b) Measurement

All operations with financial instruments are recognized in the Company’s financial statements, as shown below. No reclassifications between categories were made during the fiscal year.

Assets
At fair value through profit or loss
Financial investments 6 1,631,505 2,080,615
Derivative financial instruments (current and non-current) 4.3 133,910 444,180
At amortized cost
Cash and cash equivalents 5 1,076,833 1,614,697
Trade accounts receivable 7 2,297,763 1,548,741
5,140,011 5,688,233
Liabilities
At amortized cost
Trade accounts payable 18 621,179 582,918
Loans and financing 19 12,191,856 14,012,779
Liabilities for assets acquisitions 24 585,986 694,855
At fair value through profit or loss
Derivative financial instruments (current and non-current) 4.5 127,896 471,478
13,526,917 15,762,030

c) Fair value versus book value

Normal purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the trade date – the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognized at fair value plus

F-89

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss, if any, are initially recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement.

In order to determine the fair value of assets or financial instruments traded in liquid and public markets was used the closing market quote on the date of the balance sheet. The fair value of interest rate and index swaps is calculated as the present value of their future cash flows, discounted at the current interest rates available for operations with similar conditions and remaining terms. This calculation is made based on the B3 and Brazilian Financial and Capital Markets Association (ANBIMA) quotes for interest rate operations denominated in Brazilian real, and the British Bankers Association and Bloomberg quotes for operations in London InterBank Offered Rate (“Libor”). The fair value of futures or forward currency contracts is determined using forward currency rates prevailing on the dates of the balance sheet, according to B3 quotes.

In order to determine the fair value of assets or financial instruments traded on the over-the-counter markets or without liquidity, several assumptions and methods are used based on normal market conditions (and not for settlement or forced sale) at each balance-sheet date, including the use of option pricing models, such as Black & Scholes, and estimates of future discounted cash flows. The fair value of agreements for pulp and paper pricing is obtained through the price quotes for corresponding instruments with similar conditions and remaining terms with major players in this market. Finally, the fair value of agreements for bunker oil pricing is based on the Platts index quotes.

The result of financial instruments trading is recognized on the closing or contracting dates of the operations, on which the Company undertakes to buy or sell these instruments. The liabilities deriving from the contracting of financial instruments are eliminated from our financial statements only when these instruments expire or when the risks, obligations and rights deriving therefrom are transferred.

The comparison between the fair value and carrying value of outstanding financial instruments is shown below:

4.2 Liquidity risk

The Company’s guidance is to maintain a strong cash and financial investment position to meet its financial and operating obligations. The amount kept as cash is used for payments expected in the normal course of its operations, while the surplus amount is invested in highly liquid financial investments.

The following are the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date. The amounts are undiscounted, and include contractual interest payments, therefore, may not be reconciled with the amounts disclosed in the balance sheet.

4.3 Credit risk

The Company has sales and credit policies, determined by the Management, which aim to mitigate any risks arising from their clients’ default. This is achieved through meticulous selection of the client portfolio, which takes into account payment capacity (credit analysis) and diversification of sales (risk pooling), as well as the guarantees or financial instruments contracted to reduce these risks, such as credit insurance policies, both for exports and domestic sales.

The Company’s credit evaluation matrix is based on an analysis of the qualitative and quantitative aspects for determining credit limits to clients on an individual basis. After analyses, they are submitted for approval

F-91

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

according to established hierarchy. In some cases, the approval from the management’s meeting and the Credit Committee is applicable.

The Company accrues provisions for all amounts overdue more than 90 days and not renegotiated by clients, and for which there are no real guarantees. The Company also accrues provisions for outstanding amounts from clients under judicial reorganization.

To mitigate credit risk, the Company maintains its financial operations diversified across various banks, with most of these operations concentrated in prime banks rated high grade by the main risk rating agencies.

The book value of financial assets representing the exposure to credit risk on the date of the financial statements was as follows:

Assets
Cash and cash equivalents 5 1,076,833 1,614,697
Financial investments 6 1,631,505 2,080,615
Trade accounts receivable 7 2,297,763 1,548,741
Derivative financial instruments 133,910 444,180
5,140,011 5,688,233

The Other Parties, mostly financial institutions with whom the Company conducts transactions classified under cash and cash equivalents, financial investments and derivatives receivable, are rated by the rating agencies Fitch Ratings, Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s. The risk rating is as follows:

Brazilian Risk Rating Cash and cash equivalents and financial investments — 2017 2016 Derivatives receivable — 2017 2016
AAA 2,168,810 1,559,566 65,510 92,490

(b) Delay between 30 and 90 days

(c) Delay over than 90 days and renegotiated by clients or with guarantees

The amounts do not consider the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts of R$ 38,740 and R$ 44,517 on December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

4.4 Market risk

The Company is exposed to several market risks, the main ones being the variation in exchange rates, interest rates, inflation rates and commodity prices that may affect its results and financial situation.

To reduce the impacts on results in adverse scenarios, the Company has processes to monitor exposures and policies that support the implementation of risk management.

The policies establish the limits and instruments to be implemented for the purpose of: (i) protecting cash flow due to currency mismatch, (ii) mitigating exposure to interest rates, (iii) reducing the impacts of fluctuation in commodity prices, and (iv) change of debt indexes.

The market risk management process comprises identification, assessment and implementation of the strategy, with the actual contracting of adequate financial instruments.

An independent area monitors if the limits established in the Company’s financial policy are met for the maximum volume of operations contracted.

4.4.1. Exchange rate risk

The contracting of financing and the currency derivative policy of the Company are guided by the fact that around 70% of net revenue comes from exports with prices negotiated in U.S. dollar, while most of the production costs is tied to the Brazilian real (BRL). This structure allows the Company to contract export financing in U.S. dollar and to reconcile financing payments with the flows of receivables from sales in foreign market, using the international bond market as an important portion of its capital structure, and providing a natural cash hedge for these commitments.

In addition, the Company contracts short positions in the futures markets, including strategies involving options, to ensure attractive levels of operating margins for a portion of revenue. Sales in the futures market are limited to a percentage of the net surplus foreign currency (net exposure) over an 18-month time horizon and therefore are matched to the availability of currency for sale in the short term.

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

The net exposure of assets and liabilities in foreign currency which is substantially in U.S. dollars, are demonstrated below:

Assets
Cash and cash equivalents 585,541 787,888
Trade accounts receivable 1,544,633 932,269
Derivative financial instruments 133,910 444,180
2,264,084 2,164,337
Liabilities
Trade accounts payable (45,548 ) (24,630 )
Loans and financing (8,616,807 ) (9,367,865 )
Liabilities for asset acquisitions (332,193 ) (354,664 )
Derivative financial instruments (126,781 ) (397,468 )
(9,121,329 ) (10,144,627 )
Liability exposure (6,857,245 ) (7,980,290 )

Foreign denominated balances are primarily denominated in U.S. Dollars.

Sensitivity analysis – foreign exchange exposure

For market risk analysis, the Company uses scenarios to jointly evaluate the long and short positions in foreign currency, and the possible effects on its results. The probable scenario represents the amounts already booked, because they reflect the conversion into Brazilian real on the reporting date.

The other scenarios were created considering the 25% and 50% depreciation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar.

This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant, the following table presents the potential impacts on results assuming these scenarios:

As of Effect on Income
Probable Possible Increase ( D 25%) Remote Increase ( D 50%)
Cash and cash equivalents 585,541 146,385 292,771
Trade accounts receivable 1,544,749 386,187 772,374
Trade accounts payable (45,548 ) (11,387 ) (22,774 )
Loans and financing (8,616,807 ) (2,154,202 ) (4,308,405 )
Liabilities for assets acquisitions (332,193 ) (83,048 ) (166,096 )
Derivatives Swap (18,692 ) (243,371 ) (486,742 )
Derivatives Options 25,821 (320,243 ) (964,545 )

4.4.2 Interest rate risk

Fluctuations in interest rates could result in increase or decrease in costs of new financing and operations already contracted.

The Company constantly seeks alternatives to use financial instruments in order to avoid negative impacts on its cash flows.

Sensitivity analysis – exposure to interest rates

For market risk analysis, the Company uses scenarios to evaluate the sensitivity that variations in operations impacted by the rates: Interbanking Deposit Rates (“ CDI”), Long Term Interest Rate (“TJLP”) and Libor may have on its results. The probable scenario represents the amounts already booked, as they reflect the best estimates of the Management.

This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency exchange rates, remain constant. The other scenarios were developed considering appreciation of 25% and 50% in the market interest rates. The following table shows the potential impacts on the results in the event of these scenarios:

As of Effect on Income and Equity
Probable Possible Increase ( D 25%) Remote Increase ( D 50%)
Interbank deposit certificate (“CDI”)
Cash and cash equivalents 449,254 8,065 16,264
Financial investments 1,673,541 30,042 60,587
Loans and financing (2,907,908 ) (52,201 ) (105,275 )
Derivative Swap (18,692 ) 24,198 48,180
Derivative Options 25,821 (24,908 ) (47,526 )
(14,804 ) (27,770 )
Long-term interest rate (“TJLP”)
Loans and financing (209,954 ) (3,674 ) (7,348 )
(3,674 ) (7,348 )
London InterBank Offered Rate (“Libor”)
Loans and financing (3,701,405 ) (16,086 ) (32,173 )
Derivative Swap (1,116 ) 1,116 1,116
(14,970 ) (31,057 )

4.4.3 Commodity price risk

The Company is exposed to commodity prices that reflect mainly on the pulp sale price in the foreign market. The dynamics of opening and closing production capacities in the global market and the macroeconomic conditions may have an impact on the operating results.

It is not possible to guarantee that the price will be maintained at levels favorable to the results. The Company can use financial instruments to reduce the sale price of a part of its production; however, at times, contracting a hedge for pulp price may not be available.

F-95

The Company is also exposed to international oil prices, which reflects on logistical costs for selling to the export market.

On December 31, 2017, there is no long position in bunker oil (long position of R$ 2,861 on December 31, 2016) to hedge its logistics costs.

4.5 Derivative financial instruments

The Company determines the fair value of derivative contracts and recognizes that these amounts can differ from the amounts realized in the event of early settlement. The amounts reported by the Company are based on an estimate and using data provided from a third party, which is reviewed by management.

a) Outstanding derivatives by type of contract

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

Fair value does not represent an obligation for immediate disbursement or cash receipt, given that such effect will only occur on the dates of contractual fulfillment or on the maturity of each transaction, when the result will be determined, depending on the case and market conditions on the agreed dates.

Contracts outstanding on December 31, 2017 are over-the-counter operations without any margin or early settlement clause imposed due to mark-to-market variations.

Each existing contract and respective protected risks are described bellow:

i) DI vs. US$ Swap: positions in conventional swaps exchanging the variation in the Interbank Deposit (“DI”) rate for a fixed rate in dollars. The purpose is to change the currency of debt indexes from reais to dollars;

ii) DI vs. Libor Swap: positions in conventional swaps exchanging the variation in the Interbank Deposit (“DI”) rate for a floating rate in dollars. The purpose is to change the currency of debt indexes from reais into dollars;

iii) US$ vs. DI Swap: positions in conventional swaps exchanging the variation in the fixed rate in dollars for Interbank Deposit (“DI”) rate. The purpose is to revert debts in dollars to reais;

iv) Libor vs. Fixed Swap: positions in conventional swaps exchanging the floating rate for a fixed rate in dollars. The purpose is to hedge the cash flow from fluctuations in the US interest rate;

v) Coupon vs. US$ Swap: positions in swaps exchanging dollar coupon for a fixed offshore dollar rate in order to reduce debt costs;

vi) Zero-Cost Collar: positions in an instrument consisting of a simultaneous combination of purchase of put options and sale of call options in dollars, with the same principal amount and maturity, in order to hedge cash flows from exports. According to this strategy, a range is fixed where there is no deposit or receipt of a financial margin on position adjustments;

vii) US$ vs. MXN$ NDF: long positions in dollars and short positions in Mexican peso in order to protect the sale of products in the Mexican market;

viii) Bunker (oil): long positions in bunker oil in order to protect logistics costs related to contracting maritime freight.

b) Fair value net by maturity date

Derivatives mature as follows:

Maturity of derivatives Net fair value — 2017 2016
In 2017 — 113,957

The income tax reduction incentive is calculated on the profit from the operations (profit from exploration) and takes into account the allocation of operating profit at the incentivized production levels during the periods defined for the benefit for each product, which in general are 10 years. The Incentive for Lines 1 and 2 of Mucuri expires in 2024 and 2018, respectively.

The DAI Benefit is applicable to acquisitions of property, plant and equipment items from calendar year 2006 to December 31, 2018 and consists of full depreciation of the asset, within the year of acquisition or up to the 4 th year after the acquisition, for the unit in Maranhão, which can be deducted from the income tax calculation basis.

13 Biological assets

Below are the changes in the balances of biological assets in the years ended on the respective dates:

Opening Balances on January 01, 2015 3,659,421

Additions (a) 912,368
Harvests in the year (depletion) (551,135 )
Gain on adjustment to fair value (b) 192,504
Disposal of forests (28,030 )
Other write-offs (c) (49,338 )
Balances on December 31, 2017 4,548,897

(a) Refers to formation and acquisition of forests. In 2016, the Company acquired forests from Queiroz Galvão for approximately R$ 507 million. Leased land costs incurred with subsidiaries in the amount of R$ 22,624 (R$ 21,789 on December 31, 2016) were excluded from the consolidated statements;

(b) The loss recorded in 2016 is manly composed of reduction of Average Annual Growth (“IMA”) in the regions of Bahia and Pará, reduction in the average negotiated market price (gross of taxes) of wood in São Paulo, other economic effects and operating forest turnover. The gain reported in 2017 is mainly due to the gross wood price in the regions of Maranhão and Pará and the maintenance of other assumptions;

(c) Represent operational write-offs of forests during the forest formation period.

The Company’s biological assets are mainly made of eucalyptus forest for reforestation used to supply wood to pulp and paper mills and are located in the states of São Paulo, Bahia, Maranhão, Minas Gerais, Pará and Tocantins. Permanent preservation and legal reserve areas were not included in the calculation of fair value due to its nature.

The fair value of eucalyptus forests is determined semiannually through the income approach method by using the Discounted Cash Flow method.

F-110

Table of Contents

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

The assumptions used in determining the fair value of biological assets were:

i) Average cycle of forest formation of 7 years;

ii) Forests are measured at their fair value as of the plantation year;

iii) Mean annual increment – IMA consists of the estimated volume of production of wood with bark in m 3 per hectare, ascertained based on the genetic material used in each region, forestry policies and forest management, production potential, climate factors and soil conditions;

iv) The estimated average standard cost per hectare includes expenses on forestry and forest management each year of formation of the biological cycle of the forests, plus costs of land lease agreements and own land opportunity cost;

v) The average eucalyptus gross sale prices were based on specialized research on transactions made by the Company with third parties or weighted by the cost of formation plus cost of capital plus estimated margin for regions where there is no market benchmark available;

vi) Discount rate used in cash flows is calculated based on capital structure and other economic assumptions for a participant in the independent business of selling timber (forests).

The pricing model considers net cash flows, after deduction of taxes on profit at the applicable rates.

Main assumptions for calculation of fair value of the biological assets:

Assumptions Used — Planted useful area (hectare) 470,338 450,474 431,677
Mature assets 106,008 84,084 56,863
Immature assets 364,330 366,390 374,814
Average annual growth (IMA) - m /hectare 33.06 33.80 36.50
Average gross sale price of eucalyptus - R$/m3 69.19 53.45 56.36
Utilization cost of Company’s assets that contribute - % 4.44 % 5.00 % 5.00 %
Discount rate - % 9.11 % 10.54 % 10.39 %

The Company manages the financial risks related to agricultural activities in a preventive manner, by reducing risks from edaphoclimatic factors. The weather is monitored through meteorological stations and, in the event of pests and diseases, our Department of Forestry Research and Development, an area specialized in physiological and phytosanitary aspects, has procedures to diagnose and act rapidly against any occurrences and losses.

Sensitivity analysis

The calculation of fair value of the biological assets falls under Level 3 in the hierarchy set forth in IFRS 13 – Measurement of Fair Value, due to the complexity and structure of calculation.

The main assumptions, IMA and Average Price are the most sensitive, given that any increase in these assumptions causes significant gains and any reduction thereof causes significant negative impacts on fair value measurement.

23.1 Phantom Stock Options (“PSO”)

The Company has a long-term remuneration plan for certain executives and Management’s key members linked to the Company share price and paid in cash.

During 2017, the Company granted the Share Appreciation Rights (SAR) and SAR PLUS 2017 Programs of phantom share options. In this program, beneficiaries should invest 5% of the total amount corresponding to the number of options of phantom shares at the grant date and 20% after three years to acquire the option. The Company also granted Long-Term Incentive (LTI) programs to its key members as part of its retention policy. In this program, the beneficiary does not make any investment.

The vesting period of options may vary from 3 to 5 years, as of the grant date, in accordance with the characteristics of each plan.

The price of the share is calculated based on the average share quote of the 90 previous trading sessions starting from the closing quote on the last business day of the month prior to the month of the grant. The installments of these programs will be adjusted by the variation in the price of the Suzano’s shares (SUZB5) between the granting and the payment period. On dates when the SUZB5 stock is not traded, the quote of the previous trading session will be considered.

The phantom share options will only be due if the beneficiary is an employee of the Company on the payment date. In case of termination of the employment by initiative of the Company or by initiative of the beneficiary, before the vesting period is completed, the executive will not be entitled to receive all benefits, unless otherwise established in the agreements.

23.3 Measurement assumptions

In the case of the phantom shares plan, since the settlement is in cash, the fair value of options is remeasured at the end of each period based on the Monte Carlo (MMC) method, which is multiplied by the Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) in the period (which varies between 75% and 125%, depending on the performance of SUZB5 in relation to its peers in Brazil).

The fair value of the Class A common stock option plan of Program III, was estimated based on the binomial probability model, which considers the dividends distribution rate and the following assumptions:

Description of assumptions Indexes
Options
Program III SAR 2014 SAR 2015 SAR 2016 and Plus 2016 SAR 2017 and Plus 2017
Calculation Model Binomial Monte Carlo Monte Carlo Monte Carlo Monte Carlo
Asset base price (per share) R$ 7.73 R$ 18.88 R$ 18.88 R$ 18.88 R$ 18.88
Expectation of volatility (a) 40.47% p.a. 36.82% p.a. 34.77% p.a. 33.85% p.a. 38.35% p.a

Risk-free weighted average interest rate (d) 8.99% 11.90% 12.83% 14.33% 10.23%

(a) The expectation of volatility was calculated for each exercise date, taking into account the remaining time to complete the vesting period, as well as the historical volatility of returns, considering a standard deviation of 745 observations of returns;

(b) The expectation of average life of phantom stocks and stock options was defined by the remaining term until the limit exercise date;

(c) The expectation of dividends was defined based on historical earnings per share of the Suzano;

(d) Risk-free weighted average interest rate used was the BRL yield curve (DI expectation) observed on the open market, which is the best comparison basis with the Brazilian market risk-free interest rates. The rate used for each exercise date changes according to the vesting period.

31 Events subsequent to the reporting date

i) Acquisition of FACEPA – Approval by CADE

On January 19, 2018, Brazil’s antitrust agency CADE approved, without restrictions, the acquisition of around 92.84% of the total capital of FACEPA by Suzano, as mentioned in Note 1.1 b) i). The acquisition was finalized on March 1, 2018 directly and indirectly, of approximately 92.84% of the total capital stock and 99.99% of the ordinary share capital of Facepa. From this date Suzano acquired control over FACEPA operations.

The amount paid for the acquisition was R$ 267,876, made on the date of the acquisition and a contingent amount of R$ 40,000, which is conditioned on the non-materialization of indemnifiable losses by the sellers, totaling R$ 307,876.

The Company did not finalize the identification and measurement of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in this business combination and recognized the consideration transferred preliminarily as intangible assets.

ii) Acquisition of land and forests in the state of São Paulo

On February 5, 2018, the Company entered into an Agreement for the Purchase of Forestry Assets, Purchase of Rural Properties, Purchase Option and Other Covenants, with Conditions Precedent, with Duratex S.A. (“Duratex”), through itself and its affiliates, under which:

(i) it acquired around nine thousand and five hundred (9,500) hectares of rural land and one million and two hundred thousand cubic meters (1,200,000 m³) of forests, which refllects the potential of production of existing and already implemented forests in the areas acquired, in the na central region of the state of São Paulo, for R$ 308.1 million; and (ii) it acquired an option to purchase approximately twenty thousand

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

(20,000) hectares of rural properties in the same region and five million and six hundred thousand (5,600,000) cubic meters of forests, which refelects the potential of production of existing and already implemented forests in the properties subject-matter of the option, for the price of R$ 749,4 million, with the option able to be exercised, at the sole discretion of Suzano, through July 2, 2018.

On April 4, 2018, CADE approved without restrictions the acquisition of land and forests in the State of São Paulo from Duratex

iii) Export prepayment facility

On February 8, 2018, the Company contracted, through its wholly owned subsidiary Suzano Pulp and Paper Europe S.A. (“Suzano Europe”), an export prepayment facility, structured in a syndicated form, amounting to US$ 750 million, with final maturity of 5 years and grace period of 3 years, which has Suzano and Suzano Trading Ltd. (“Suzano Trading”), another subsidiary of Suzano, as guarantors.

The proceeds will be used to settle the export prepayment transaction contracted on May 14, 2015, in the amount of US$ 600 million and to finance export operations.

The new operation reduces borrowing cost in U.S. dollar, extending the average debt term and eliminates financial covenants.

iv) Voting Commitment and Assumption of Obligations

On March 15, 2018, Suzano Holding S.A., jointly with other controlling shareholders of the Company (collectively, the “Controlling Shareholders of the Company”), entered into with the controlling shareholders of Fibria Celulose S.A. (“Fibria” and, jointly with Suzano, the “Companies”), Votorantim S.A. and BNDES Participações S.A. – BNDESPAR (“BNDESPAR”) (collectively the “Controlling Shareholders of Fibria”) and with Suzano as intervening consenting party, a Commitment to Vote and Assumption of Obligations, whereby the Controlling Shareholders of the Company and the Controlling Shareholders of Fibria agreed to exercise their voting rights to combine the operations and shareholding base of the Company and of Fibria, through a corporate restructuring.

The corporate restructuring will be submitted to the shareholders of each of the Companies, which will result in the following: a) the ownership, by Suzano, of all the shares issued by Fibria; and (b) the receipt by the shareholders of Fibria, for each common share issued by Fibria, of (i) fifty-two reais and fifty cents (R$ 52.50), adjusted in accordance with CDI from March 15, 2018 to the effective payment date, to be paid in a single installment on the date of completion of the merger; and (ii) 0.4611 common shares of Suzano, to be delivered on the date of completion of the merger.

Shareholders of Fibria holding American Depositary Shares (“ADS”) will be entitled to receive Suzano ADSs, in accordance with the same exchange ratio.

In connection with the delivery of Suzano shares and Suzano ADSs to holders of Fibria shares and Fibria ADSs, respectively, Suzano will (i) register the Suzano shares to be delivered (unless an exemption from such registration is available) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; and (ii) apply to list the Suzano ADSs on the New York Stock Exchange where Fibria’s ADSs are currently listed.

Once the transaction is consummated, the shares and ADSs issued by Fibria will no longer be traded on B3 S.A. and the New York Stock Exchange, respectively.

Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A. Notes to the Financial Statements At December 31, 2017 (In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated)

In accordance with the Voting Commitment, if any restrictions imposed by antitrust authorities in Brazil and/or other countries are too burdensome, as determined by the production capacity of any required divestiture, Suzano may choose not to consummate the transaction, upon payment to Fibria of a break-up fee equivalent to R$ 750 million. The break-up fee is also payable upon the non-completion of the merger as a result of certain other circumstances, as set forth in the Voting Commitment.

In the context of the transaction and subject to the closing of the transaction, on March 15th, 2018, the Controlling Shareholders of the Company entered into a Voting Agreement and other covenants with BNDESPAR (“BNDESPAR Voting Agreement”), establishing certain governance and financial commitments to be complied with by the Company and limiting the transfer of certain shares issued by the Company and held by the Controlling Shareholders of the Company.

Suzano has secured firm financing commitments from certain international financial institutions for a total amount of US$ 9.2 billion, the disbursement of which is conditioned, among other things, on the completion of the merger. Proceeds from said financing will be used to finance a part of the cash consideration paid to holders of Fibria securities and the combined exports of the companies.

Completion of the merger is subject to typical conditions precedent for transactions of this nature, including approval by antitrust authorities in Brazil and abroad.

v) Acquisition of a company in the energy segment (Mucuri PCH)

On February 19, 2018, after the fulfillment of all the conditions precedent and after approval was obtained from competent government authorities, the operation with Queiroz Galvão Energia S.A. for the acquisition of all the shares issued by Mucuri Energética S.A. (“PCH Mucuri”) was concluded. PCH Mucuri owns a small hydroelectric plant located in the cities of Carlos Chagas and Pavão.

The amount paid for this acquisition was R$ 41,996 at the date of completion of the acquisition. The Company did not finalize the identification and measurement of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in this business combination and recognized the consideration transferred preliminarily as intangible assets.

vi) Approval by CADE of the acquisition of land and forests

On April 4, 2018, CADE approved without restrictions the acquisition of land and forests in the State of São Paulo from Duratex (Note 1.1 a) i). On April 27, 2018 was paid R$ 150,300 related to the first installment for the acquisition.

ITEM 22. Undertakings

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(a) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(1) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(2) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

(3) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

(b) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(c) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering;

(d) To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 need not be furnished provided, that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 or Item 8.A. of Form 20-F if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement;

(e) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(f) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the

II-2

Table of Contents

securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof ;

(g) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(1) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of the registration (i) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(2) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(3) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(4) any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(h) That prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other Items of the applicable form.

(i) That every prospectus (i) that is filed pursuant to paragraph (h)(1) immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(j) To respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means, and (ii) to arrange or provide for a facility in the United States for the purpose of responding to such requests. The undertaking in this paragraph includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

(k) To supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.

(l) That insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or

II-3

Table of Contents

controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
