“PROPOSAL FOR THE DESTINATION OF NET INCOME FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016. Dear Members of the Board of Directors, The Board of Executive Officers of Vale S.A. (“Vale” or “Company”), in lieu with Article 192 of Law #6,404 (as amended by Laws #10,303 and #11,638) and Articles 41 to 44 of Vale’s Bylaws, hereby presents to the Board of Directors the proposal for the destination of net income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. The net income for the year, according to the Income Statement, amounted to R$13.311.455.285,00 (thirteen billion, three hundred and eleven million, four hundred and fifty five thousand, two hundred and eighty five

Brazilian reais), accounted as standards and pronouncements issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (“CVM”) and by the Accounting Standards Committee (“CPC”), for which the following destination is hereby proposed: I - LEGAL RESERVE: To this reserve must be allocated 5% of net income of the year up to the limit of 20% (twenty percent) of the Social Capital by force of Article 193 of Law #6,404 and in the Article 42 of Vale’s Bylaws, that is, R$665,572,764.25 (six hundred and sixty five million, five hundred and seventy two thousand, seven hundred sixty-four Brazilian reais and twenty-five cents. The allocation to this reserve may not be recorded in the year in which the balance of the legal reserve plus the amount of capital reserves (Article 182 of Law #6,404/76) exceeds 30% of the social capital which has been not reached yet. II - TAX INCENTIVE RESERVES: Vale is entitled to an income tax reduction on profits arising from exploration profits granted, as defined: (a) establishment report #023/2007 issued by the Agência de Desenvolvimento da Amazônia — ADA, currently known as Superintendência de Desenvolvimento da Amazônia - SUDAM (Amazonian Development Institution) related to tax incentives granted to copper extraction in the State of Pará; (b) establishment report #058/2015 related to tax incentives granted for the extraction of iron ore in the State of Pará; (c) establishment report #40/2011 issued by the Superintendência de Desenvolvimento da Amazônia - SUDAM related to tax incentives granted to pelletizing plant of São Luiz in the State of  Maranhão and (d) establishment report #074/2014 related to tax incentives granted to the extraction of nickel at Ourilândia do Norte in the State of Pará. Vale also benefits from a reinvestment benefit issued by SUDAM and SUDENE (Northeaster Superintendence) which allows the entity to reinvest part of the income tax due in the acquisition of new equipment for the operational plants located in areas where SUDAM and SUDENE act upon. According to the article #545 of the Income Tax Regulation the amount benefited and not paid to ITR is not available to shareholders and must be accounted in a specific reserve in the shareholders’ equity, to be used exclusively for capital increase or to absorb losses. Based in article 195-A of Law#6,404, included by  #11,638, we propose the allocation in the amount of R$884,532,313.90 (eight hundred and eighty four million, five hundred and thirty two thousand, three hundred and thirteen Brazilian reais and ninety cents) for that reserve, in which is equivalent to total tax not benefited by Vale, resulting from the following incentives in the area of SUDAM: (a) R$762,774,678.73 (seven hundred and sixty two million, seven hundred and seventy four thousand, six hundred and seventy eight Brazilian reais and seventy three cents) as income tax reductions due in 2016; (b) R$48,875,990.97 (forty eight million, eight hundred and seventy five thousand, nine hundred and ninety Brazilian reais and ninety seven cents) as reinvestments in the year-base 2016; (c) R$72,881,644.20 (seventy two million, eight hundred and eighty one thousand, six hundred and forty four Brazilian reais and twenty cents) as reinvestments in the year-base 2012. Based in article 30 of law #12,973 of 2014, we also propose the allocation in the amount of R$343,037,863.83 (three hundred and forty three million, thirty seven thousand, eight hundred and sixty three Brazilian reais and eighty three cents) for that reserve, in which is equivalent to total reconstitution of tax incentive reserve used to absorb losses for the year of 2015, and refers to the following source of incentives: (a) R$124,918,106.24 (one hundred and twenty four million, nine hundred and eighteen thousand, one hundred and six Brazilian reais and twenty four cents) as income tax reductions due in the year-base 2016 — SUDAM; (b)

R$36,851,970.35 (thirty six million, eight hundred and fifty one thousand, nine hundred and seventy Brazilian reais and thirty five cents) as reinvestments in the year-base 2014 — SUDAM; (c) R$ 174,213,784.09 (one hundred and seventy four million, two hundred and thirteen thousand, seven hundred and eighty four Brazilian reais and nine cents) as reinvestments in the year-base 2011- SUDAM; (d) R$7,054,003.15 (seven million, fifty four thousand and three Brazilian reais and fifteen cents) as part of the outstanding balance of the income tax reductions due in the year-base 2012 — SUDAM.. III - INVESTMENT RESERVES: To this reserve must be allocated the amount necessary to ensure the maintenance and development of the Company’s main activities, up to the limit of 50% of net income for the year based in article 40 and pursuant to item II, article 43 of the Company’s Bylaws. Therefore, we propose to allocate to this reserve the amount of R$5,894,586,907.98 (five billion, eight hundred and ninety four million, five hundred and eighty six thousand, nine hundred and seven Brazilian reais and ninety-eight cents).IV - REMUNERATION TO SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY: Pursuant to Article 42 of Vale’s Bylaws, after establishing the legal and tax incentive reserves, the proposed allocation of the remaining amount of the net income at the end of each fiscal year shall be submitted to the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting by the Board of Directors, considering that the amount of interest paid or accrued as interest on shareholders’ equity, according to Article 9, Paragraph 7 of Law #9,249, and the applicable laws and regulations, may be attributed to the mandatory dividend and the minimum annual dividend for preferred shares, which shall integrate the amount of dividends distributed by the company for all legal effects. Pursuant to Article 44 of the Bylaws, at least 25% of the net income of the year, adjusted under the legislation shall be allocated to payment of dividends. The adjusted net income of the year of 2016 was R$11,761,350,206.85 (eleven billion, seven hundred and sixty one million, three hundred and fifty thousand, two hundred and six Brazilian reais and eighty five cents), in which corresponds to the net income of the year of R$13.311.455.285,00 (thirteen billion, three hundred and eleven million, four hundred and fifty five thousand, two hundred and eighty five Brazilian reais), reduced by the amount of the constituted legal reserve of R$665,572,764.25 (six hundred and sixty five million, five hundred and seventy two thousand, seven hundred and sixty four Brazilian reais and twenty five cents), and the allocation to the tax incentive reserve of R$884,532,313.90 (eight hundred and eighty four million, five hundred and thirty two thousand, three hundred and thirteen Brazilian reais and ninety cents). Therefore, the minimum mandatory remuneration of 25% of the adjusted net income as dividends amounts to R$3,459,223,253,25 (three billion, four hundred and fifty nine million, two hundred and twenty three thousand, two hundred and fifty three Brazilian reais and twenty five cents), which corresponds to R$0.671253946 per outstanding common or preferred share. Pursuant to Article 5, Paragraph 5 of the Bylaws, the holders of preferred classes A and golden shares are  entitled to participate in the dividend to be distributed, calculated in accordance with Chapter VII of the Bylaws as per the following criteria: (a) priority to receive dividends corresponding to (i) at least 3% (three percent) of the shareholders’ equity share value, calculated based on the financial statements used as reference for the payment of dividends or (ii) 6% (six percent) calculated over the part of capital represented by this class of shares, whichever is the higher between them; (b) right to participate in the profits distributed, on equal terms with common shares after assured to them a dividend equal to the

minimum annual dividend established in accordance with the paragraph “a” above. As of December 31, 2016, the reference value for the minimum mandatory remuneration of the preferred shares, based on (a) 6% on preferred capital per outstanding preferred share is R$ 1,792,763,468.29 (one billion, seven hundred and ninety two million, seven hundred and and sixty three thousand, four hundred and and sixty eight Brazilian reais and twenty nine cents), corresponding to R$0.911085781 per outstanding preferred share or (b) 3% of the shareholders’ equity per outstanding preferred share, is R$1.487.342.569,74 (one billion, four hundred and eighty seven million, three hundred and forty two thousand, five hundred and sixty nine Brazilian reais and seventy four cents), corresponding to R$0.755870304, per outstanding preferred share. Considering the total balance of mandatory remuneration related to the fiscal year of 2016, as noted, the prerogative to pay interest on shareholders’ equity, based on Articles 42, sole paragraph and 45 of  the Bylaws, Vale´s actual financial position, according to the balance sheet related to the 2016 and the option by equal shareholders’ treatment, the Board of Executive Officers hereby proposes the shareholders’ distribution the total gross amount of R$5,523,725,435.04 (five billion, five hundred and twenty three million, seven hundred and twenty five thousand, four hundred and thirty five Brazilian reais and four cents) as interest on shareholders’ equity, under the terms stated in sequence. The ratification of the distribution of interest on shareholders’ equity based on the Board of Executive Officers proposal, as approved by the Board of Directors, at the meeting held on November 28, 2016, in the total gross amount of R$856,975,000.00 (eight hundred and fifty six million and nine hundred and seventy five Brazilian reais), equivalent to R$0.166293936 per outstanding common or preferred share, paid at  December 16, 2016, relative to advances of distribution of net income of the year of 2016. Therefore, the mandatory dividend has not been fully paid, as there is an additional amount to be distributed refers to net income for the year of 2016, in the amount of R$4,666,750,435.04 (four billion, six hundred and sixty six million, seven hundred and fifty thousand, four hundred and thirty five Brazilian reais and four cents), equivalent to R$0.905571689 per outstanding share, common or preferred share, to be paid until April 30, 2017. Therefore, the mandatory dividend for the year of 2016 has not yet been fully distributed, with an additional amount to distribute. As a consequence, the gross amount of R$ 4,666,750,435.04 (four billion, six hundred and sixty six million, seven hundred and fifty thousand, four hundred and thirty five Brazilian reais and four cents) will be submitted to the Board of Directors and to the Annual General Meeting for approval in the form of interest on capital, in which is equivalent to the gross amount of R$ 0.905571689 per outstanding common or preferred share, subject to the incidence of income tax at the current rate, to be paid until April 30, 2017.
