Notice to Shareholders

Banco Bradesco S.A. (Bradesco or Company) hereby informs its shareholders and the market in general that its Board of Directors, at a meeting held on this date, approved the Board of Executive Officers’ proposal for the extraordinary payment of interest on equity, for the third quarter of 2016, in the total amount of R$3,317,000,000.00, being R$0.571123466 per common share and R$0.628235813 per preferred share, to the Company’s shareholders, as per the terms of the Material Fact published on September 20, 2016.

Shareholders of record on this date will benefit from the payment and shares will be traded “ex-right” on extraordinary interest on shareholders’ equity as of October 3, 2016.

Payment will take place on March 8, 2017 in the net amount of R$0.485454946 per common share and R$0.534000441 per preferred share, following deduction of Withholding Income Tax of fifteen percent (15%),  except Corporate shareholders exempt from said tax, who will receive the full declared amount. Mentioned payment will take place as follows:

·           shareholders whose shares are deposited with the Company and whose registration and bank details are up to date, will have the checking accounts in the financial institutions indicated by them credited. Those whose details are not up to date should go to the Bradesco branch of their choice, bearing their individual taxpayer’s ID (CPF), identity document (RG) and proof of residence, in order to update their registration details and receive the amounts to which they are entitled; and

·           shareholders whose shares are deposited with BM&FBOVESPA S.A. – Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange (BM&FBOVESPA), will receive their payment through the institutions and/or brokers who maintain their positions in custody.

The extraordinary interest on shareholders’ equity approved, net of Withholding Income Tax, represents approximately 33 times the amount of interest on shareholders’ equity paid monthly and will be imputed to the calculation of the mandatory annual dividends envisaged in the Bylaws.

The resolution taken herein does not change the payment schedule of monthly and additional interest on shareholders’ equity, established in the Annual Calendar of Corporate Events, which is available on the websites of Bradesco, the CVM and the BM&FBOVESPA.

The Company may, based on the result for fiscal year 2016, distribute further interest on shareholders’ equity and/or dividends to its shareholders.
