MATERIAL FACT


RUMO LOGÍSTICA OPERADORA MULTIMODAL S.A. (BM&FBOVESPA: RUMO3) ("Rumo" or

"Company") announces to its shareholders and the general market that, in a meeting held on the date hereof, the Board of Directors of the Company considered the following matters:


  1. Over the last week, strong instability was observed in local and international stock markets, which led to a sharp drop in the price of the stock of the Company traded on the São Paulo Stock Exchange (BM&FBOVESPA).


  2. Although no significant change in the activities of the Company or in its fundamentals were observed between the approval of the capital increase, on December 23, 2015, and the date hereof, this macroeconomic scenario poses a potential risk to achieving the minimum participation required for the partial approval of the capital increase. Accordingly, the Board of Directors decided to recommend the cancellation of the transaction currently being carried out and to call in the coming days a new Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting to approve said cancelation.


  3. The management of the Company has already begun new studies to identify a new funding transaction at market conditions that both meets its short and long-term operating needs and balances its capital structure, in accordance with the recommendation of the Board. In this regard, management believes that an increase in the value of the new funding currently under analysis is probable, which would enable the Company both to change the profile of the portion of its bank debt maturing in fiscal years 2016, 2017 and 2018 and to conclude negotiations with the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) of a financing facility for the project to expand and refurbish the rail networks operated by the Company, thus advancing the business plan announced to the market.
