Project scope and objective

The purpose of the operation with Fundação Butantan (“Client” or “Butantan”) is to finance the construction of two new pharmaceutical manufacturing and processing units: i) the Egg-based Vaccine Research Center (“CPVO II”), which consists of an Influenza vaccine manufacturing plant; and ii) the Final Processing Center for Immunobiologicals (“CPFI”), which consists of a plant for formulating, filling, lyophilizing, crimping, labeling, and packaging pharmaceutical products (“Project”).

 

The operation will be structured in the form of a loan, with a final term of 10 years, including a 3-year grace period. The project will be developed in the City of São Paulo, Brazil, at the same location where Fundação Butantan currently operates.

Addendum: On November 7, a revised version is uploaded for the Environmental and Social Impact Study.
