23. Information on Braskem is available on the PORTAL for different audiences, depending on their nature, and is intended for shareholders or investors, suppliers, clients, or other stakeholders in general. Access is restricted in some areas of the site. To access those areas, you must have a user name ("LOGIN") and password ("PASSWORD"), which are both personal and confidential. You are solely responsible for keeping them that way, and assume all liability for their misuse or giving others access to them.
24. Braskem will provide a LOGIN and "admin password" to a member/employee named in a registered letter from the client/company to Braskem as the individual chiefly responsible for having free access to restricted areas. The administrator appointed by the client/company shall sign a receipt for delivery of a temporary password for first-time use (referencing these Terms of Use), and from then on create their own passwords without the knowledge or control of Braskem. This "admin password" will be the responsibility of the client/company and the member/employee appointed by the company, who will manage the creation and distribution of access profiles and passwords to other members/employees of that company. The "admin password" will also allow the user to edit and block access profiles. Braskem does not have any knowledge of or monitor the security policies and practices adopted by the client/company. The user of the "admin password" can create up to 10 (ten) profiles and distribute them among their company's members/employees. Therefore, Braskem is not responsible for their company's creation and internal distribution of passwords and access profiles, or their use, upgrading, maintenance, and safety or the blocking of those profiles. At any time, Braskem may block the client/company's access, including that of the system administrator and/or any other member/employee for any reason that comes to its attention.

In case of violations of the duties mentioned in this item, Braskem may suspend your access to the PORTAL at any time without prior notice.
