Rio de Janeiro, July 29, 2015 – The first one will become a large sports and educational complex in the Barra da Tijuca and Jacarepaguá area for public school students and high-performance athletes, sharing the space for social projects and events. The other, in Deodoro, will be an X-Park open to the population, which will serve about 1.5 million people from 10 neighborhoods and three neighboring municipalities in a region with a high concentration of youngsters lacking recreational areas.

Rio de Janeiro City Hall announces today how the Olympic Park, the heart of the Rio 2016 Games, and the Deodoro X-Park will be used after the biggest sporting event on the planet, enabling educational background with emphasis on sports, access to the population for leisure purposes and legacy for high-performance athletes. The projects embody the commitment of the City Hall to generate a significant social and sporting legacy from the Games and prevent 'white elephants'.

One of the highlights is the transformation of the Carioca Arena 3 - which will host taekwondo, fencing and Paralympic judo - into an Olympic Experimental School (GEO, its acronym in Portuguese) for 850 students, sharing full-time elementary education with 10 sports disciplines. The goal is to follow suit - adapting the project to our reality - of host cities that created an

important legacy, benefiting its population, such as Munich (1972), Barcelona (1992), Sydney (2000) and London ( 2012). Thus will be possible to turn into reality the motto of the mayor of Barcelona in 1992, Pasqual Maragall: "The Games must serve the city, and should not be served by the city".

Built in its majority with private funds, through a Public-Private Partnership (PPP), the Olympic Park was designed to meet requirements of the Olympic and Paralympic Games and also to provide a rational and effective use after the events. Located in an area of 1.18 million square meters, 60% of the Olympic Park will become public area and 40% will be dedicated for residential and commercial projects executed by the private partner.

Ernst & Young (EY), official supporter of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games and exclusive supplier of consultancy services for the mega event, is responsible for the economic and financial modeling and governance of the legacy of the Olympic arenas. After a detailed study of the organizational structure of similar facilities, the consultancy will develop a business and management model to ensure that high-performance sports and social and educational goals for the Olympic arenas are achieved and maintained in the long run. This process will be enabled through the combination of public and private efforts, ensuring the socio-economic sustainability of this important legacy of the Rio 2016 Games.

The shared use with high-performance sports was designed and will be implemented in partnership with the Brazilian Olympic Committee (COB), holder of knowledge for the development and management of activities related to this segment of sports. In addition to serving for training of top athletes, some facilities may host international sports competitions. For the City Hall part - educational and community use - it will use the valuable experience gained from managing the units of Experimental Olympic Schools, Olympic Villages and the Rio em Forma Olímpico program.

Out of the nine venues that comprise the Olympic Park, seven will remain after 2016: Carioca Arenas 1, 2 and 3, Maria Lenk Aquatic Park, Rio Arena, Velodrome and Tennis Center. After the Games, an Olympic-standard athletics track and two beach volleyball courts, as well as dormitory for high-performance and amateur athletes, will be added to the Park.

At the Deodoro X-Park - which will host canoe slalom, BMX cycling and mountain biking competitions during the Games - extreme sports equipment will be offered to the public after 2016, in a huge leisure area, the second largest in the city.

The existing venues prior to the Olympic Games - Shooting Center, Equestrian Center, Field hockey Centre and Modern Pentathlon Aquatics Center - will remain under the responsibility of

the Brazilian Army, as well as the Youth Arena, a new venue that will host women's basketball and fencing of the modern pentathlon competitions during the Games. As it already happened before Rio became the Olympic Host City, these facilities under the military administration will not have restricted military use: they will continue to welcome high-performance Brazilian teams and to host national and international competitions.

See below the planning for each arena:Carioca Arena 3 - During the Games it will host fencing, taekwondo and Paralympic judo. Afterwards it will become an Experimental Olympic School (GEO), a place dedicated to sports, for 850 students – it will be the largest unit of this model in the city. The Olympic Park GEO will have 24 classrooms, science and media laboratories and two multipurpose rooms. It will offer judo, wrestling, table tennis, futsal, badminton, basketball, handball, volleyball, swimming and athletics (these last two, respectively, in the Maria Lenk Aquatic Park and on a track yet to be built behind the Rio Arena).

To become a GEO, the arena with a capacity of 10,000 during the Games, will have their temporary stands removed and will undergo adaptations. After dismantling the stands, for example, classrooms and training areas will be constructed on the slabs. But the new GEO structure will not only serve the students. It will also be used for social projects, from a plan that will consider schedules, and get young people enrolled in social programs who want to practice badminton, judo, wrestling, table tennis, archery, handball, futsal, basketball, volleyball, artistic, trampoline and rhythmic gymnastics, as well as weight lifting training. In total, the structure of the GEO can be used by almost 9.500 people per month.

Carioca Arena 2 - The arena will host judo, greco-roman wrestling, wrestling and Paralympic boccia in 2016 and will be dedicated exclusively to high-performance sports after the Games. With a capacity of 10,000 people during the event, it will have its temporary grandstands removed and, like on Carioca Arena 3, will house training rooms to be built on slabs. The competitions played there will be: weight lifting, judo, wrestling, badminton, fencing, rhythmic gymnastics, trampoline gymnastics and table tennis. There will also be locker rooms, rooms for coaches and a big store of sporting material.

Carioca Arena 1 - The biggest of the Cariocas Arenas, with a capacity of 16,000 people to watch the basketball and wheelchair rugby games during the Olympics, will be aimed at high-performance sport and the promotion of various events. Connected to the Carioca Arena 2, the gym will have its high-performance wing implemented in the area adjacent to the neighboring facility, in order to form a set of equipment serving the best boxing and taekwondo fighters in

the country. There will also be dressing rooms and a big facility for the practice of weight training and aerobic conditioning exercises.

Part of its grandstands will be dismantled after the Games and will have 7,500 permanent seats after 2016. The goal is to host events such as concerts, fairs, exhibitions and sporting competitions. If necessary, the capacity can be further expanded with the installation of temporary structures for the public.

Velodrome - With 5,000 seats, the Velodrome will have multiple functions allowing full use of its spaces. The venue, which will be the most modern in the country for the sport, will welcome the best cyclists from Brazil for technical improvement and also host classes linked to social sporting projects as well as international competitions and other sporting events. The core of the track will receive equipment for the practice of other four sports: taekwondo, fencing, boxing and weightlifting. In all, for this purpose, the Velodrome may have 740 students per month linked to social projects.

Tennis Center - The complex will have 16 courts during the Rio 2016 Games. It will be reduced after the event, but will keep welcoming high-performance athletes and will receive young people enrolled in tennis academies. With a capacity of 19,750 people in its 10 game courts - the other six are for training and warm-up - the Tennis Center will have three arenas during the Games: for 10,000, people, 5,000 people and 3,000 people.

The main arena for 10,000 people and eight other courts will remain after the Games. The Tennis Center, although smaller than the one used in the Games, will keep a structure capable of hosting international tournaments, such as Rio Open. Thus, besides the permanent structure in the main court, it will be possible to build temporary grandstands in other courts.

Maria Lenk Aquatic Park - Used for the 2007 Pan-American Games and for local training of high-performance athletes, in addition to hosting competitions such as the Troféu Maria Lenk, the Aquatic Park will host diving and synchronized swimming competitions during the 2016 Games. After the event, it will maintain its usage for high-performance athletes, but its role will be expanded to offer places for 800 youngsters from social projects. For this audience, it will be possible to train four Olympic aquatic disciplines: swimming, water polo, synchronized swimming and diving. Students from the neighboring GEO will also use the Maria Lenk Aquatic Center for swimming lessons. As from its inauguration, the venue will continue to host national and international competitions.

Athletics track, beach volleyball courts and accommodation (nomadic architecture) - The athletics track will be one of the biggest sporting legacies of the Games for the city. It will be

4

built after the Games with the official size of 400 meters and will be placed right next to the Carioca Arena 2, enabling the practice of all types of track and field competitions. As with other facilities of the Olympic Park, it will have shared use among high-performance athletes, GEO students and social project members. In the latter two groups, it will assist circa 1,080 people. Between the athletics track and the Rio Arena there will be a dormitory following the concept, which is a milestone in the organization of the Rio 2016 Games: the nomadic architecture, also used in the Future Arena, which will be transformed into four municipal schools, and the Aquatic Stadium, which will be turned into two aquatic centers. Regarding the dormitory, it will arise from the technical galleries’ structure from the International Broadcast Centre (IBC), which will be dismantled after the Paralympic Games. The accommodation building will have 116 rooms with two beds each, cafeteria, auditorium, physical therapy rooms and a restaurant. The high-level accommodations will house foreign delegations of various modalities in Rio de Janeiro for internships and trainings on the site that will have hosted the Olympic and Paralympic Games. At the other end of the athletics track, opposite to the dormitory, there will be two beach volleyball courts, which may also be used by professional players and social project members.

Rio Arena - Also used in the 2007 Pan-American Games, the Rio Arena has established itself in the cultural and sporting landscape of the city as a stage of big concerts, NBA basketball games and MMA fights. In January this year, the Gymnastics Training Center was opened, with 1,400 square meters, which is run by COB and will remain after the Games. In 2016, the Arena will host the Olympic competitions of artistic, rhythmic and trampoline gymnastics and wheelchair basketball.

Olympic Way - Vertically cutting the Olympic Park with curves inspired by the Copacabana beach sidewalk, the Olympic Way will be the path that will lead viewers to the venues. After 2016, it will be transformed into 890 meter long public park with 47,000 square meters of total area, including five terraces and two kiosks. The Way begins at the entrance gate, at Embaixador Abelardo Bueno Avenue, runs through the center of the Park and ends on the banks of the Jacarepaguá Lagoon, joining the Live Site. Designed with inclination of up to 3.9°, below the legal requirement, it ensures comfort to the public, especially to people with disabilities.

After 2016, it will become a big public park, with boulevards, squares, bike lanes, leisure areas and sports courts, with free access for sports practitioners. Divided in four sectors, the Olympic Way will be will offer a wide green area, with typical species of tropical vegetation, park for children, picnic tables, recreational area with seats and exercising equipment.

Following by the winding road, you arrive to the Olympic Way Park, which will be divided in two areas: sportive and civic. The first will have several facilities, a park for children, a kiosk and an esplanade that will give access to the multi sports courts and ping-pong tables. Between the courts - surrounded by protection nets and painted in different colors to signalize the lines of the various sports that may be practiced - there will be tree-lined boulevards, bicycle paths and bike racks. In its upper part, opposite the future GEO, the Olympic Way will be nearly 10 meters above the ground, which will provide a privileged view of the park.

At the second part of the Olympic Park Way, in the civic area, the public will enjoy various gardens of diverse features and plenty of shady areas, one dedicated for children, leisure spaces for art installations and small events as well as kiosks and areas for picnics.

Closing the Olympic Way is the South Park where, during the Games, the Live Site will be installed. With 30.000 square meters, the space will be a large recreation area with ramps for skateboarding practice, gardens, open lawn for leisure activities with family and friends. The site may also house restaurants, cafes and shops.

LEGACY OF TEMPORARY FACILITIES OF THE OLYMPIC PARK - NOMADIC ARCHITECTURE

At the time of the bid for the Rio 2016 Games, studies were conducted to identify which Olympic Park facilities would be permanent and which would be temporary. When permanent, the correct dimensioning for future use was broadly analyzed, so in some cases the capacity of the plant was reduced in the Legacy Mode in comparison to the Games Mode. The three Carioca Arenas, the Velodrome and the existing facilities (Maria Lenk Aquatic Park and Rio Arena) will be permanent. The Tennis Center will have seven of its 16 courts removed, remaining the main permanent court with 10,000 seats, and eight others, where is possible to eventually build temporary bleachers to host major competitions.

The Aquatic Stadium and the Future Arena will be temporary. Regarding the non-permanent arenas, it was developed the concept of nomadic architecture. The Aquatic Stadium and the Future Arena are being built according to this concept. After the Games, the Aquatic Stadium will be turned into two aquatic centers, one of them with a covered Olympic swimming pool (50 m) and a grandstand with seating for 6.000 spectators, and the other with an Olympic pool and a grandstand with seating for 3.000 people. As for the Future Arena, it will be dismantled and transformed into four municipal schools, each one with capacity for 500 students.

In order to enable the transformation of an Olympic facility into four new schools, the construction of the Future Arena is being fully implemented in accordance to the post-2016 use. The specifications were determined since the process of choosing the company responsible for the project development. Precast ramps and stairs of the arena will be reused in the access and circulation areas of the schools. The roof structure is made up of metal beams and tiles

with standard size for reuse on the roofs of the schools. There will also be standardization of the dimensions from the panels of internal closures and front of the arena.

DEODORO X-PARK

Located on the border of the North and the West zones, Deodoro gathers many Army facilities in an area with the highest concentration of youngsters lacking leisure options in the city. Surrounded by the neighborhoods of Anchieta, Campo dos Afonsos, Deodoro, Guadalupe, Jardim Sulacap, Magalhães Bastos, Parque Anchieta, Realengo, Ricardo de Albuquerque and Vila Militar, the Deodoro Complex borders three populated municipalities in the metropolitan region - Nilópolis, Nova Iguaçu and Mesquita - which will also be benefitted by the legacy left from the Games at the X-Park. In 2016, the Deodoro Sports Complex will be the second largest competition cluster of the Games, with 11 Olympic and four Paralympic sports. The X-Park will be almost 500 square meters large, will offer various choices of recreation and sports activities - including a bike path - and will be the second largest leisure area of the city, after the Flamengo Park.

Plans for the full utilization of the X-Park, which will host the canoe slalom, BMX and mountain bike competitions, divide the area into four sectors, according to each of their profiles. In sector 1, which includes the canoe slalom circuit and the BMX track, the idea is to have combined use among the population and the high-performance athletes. The canoe slalom venue will become a large pool. The obstacles that increase the difficulty of the athletes during the Games will be removed and will make way to a recreational lake and a canal for swimming or sliding.

The Olympic BMX Track will remain, with its challenging waves, for the best BMX practitioners in the world. At the ground next to it will be installed multi sports courts.

The sector 2 will be the one most dedicated to nature, with eco trails, fitness equipment - including for Senior Citizens - and places for rest and contemplation, with seats, kiosks and gardens.

The third sector foresees one more radical equipment and will be a meeting point for families, with leisure places with grills and trails. An observation deck will provide broad view of the park. In this sector there will be a mini mountain bike track for those who like to venture out for more radical tracks.

Other sports courts, a bike path, a skating rink and other BMX track, for beginners, make up the sector 4 of the X-Park.

The sector 5 will be dedicated to citizens, with community service offer. The intention is to install an on-site Knowledge Center, a Family Clinic and environmental education equipment.

OLYMPIC PARK HISTORY: GAMES MODE

The Rio 2016 Olympic Park is considered to be the heart of the Olympic and Paralympic Games. It occupies an area of 1.18 million square meters that will host competitions of 16 Olympic sports (basketball, track cycling, artistic gymnastics, trampoline gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, handball, judo, greco-roman wrestling, wrestling, synchronized swimming, swimming, water polo, diving, taekwondo, fencing and tennis) and nine Paralympic (wheelchair basketball, boccia, cycling, football 5-a-side, goalball, judo, swimming, wheelchair rugby and wheelchair tennis).

In August 2011 it was completed the international architectural competition for the choice of the general plan of the Olympic Park. The winner was the English office AECOM, who participated in the Olympic Park project in London. In addition to contemplate the definition of public spaces (streets, open spaces, accesses etc.) on Games and Legacy modes, the urban proposal predicted the transition between the two scenarios. There were 60 entries, 41 with the participation of international architects. The location of the Rio 2016 Olympic Park was proposed in the 2016 Dossier for Rio de Janeiro's Candidature to the Games in 2016. The area was proposed to be a public land with the required dimensions to house the sports facilities and for being next to the Athletes’ Village and Riocentro (where will also be played Olympic and Paralympic sports). The buildings of the Olympic Park and Athletes’ Village in these specific areas represent savings of public funds because, besides allowing private participation in the construction of buildings and structures of the Athletes' Village, are being executed on land belonging to the Municipality, which enabled the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) of the Olympic Park.

In March 2012, the concessionaire Rio Mais won the bid of the Olympic Park PPP. The government counterpart was the municipal land itself in which the Olympic Park is being built, in addition to resources of the Municipal Treasury. Rio Mais will receive allotments that can be used after the Games, when the temporary structures are removed. At these allotments will be built housing and commercial buildings that will develop a new residential neighborhood (open, without barriers) of equivalent size to the Leme neighborhood. It will be a neighborhood with new energy-efficient components, sustainability and accessibility and served by two BRT lanes, the Transolímpica and Transcarioca. The land where there are the permanent gyms, the live site (recreation area where the public can watch the events), public areas and the ecological park that will be built on the shores of the lagoon (area of the Marginal Strip Protection) are not part of the counterpart allotments.

They will be a part of the Olympic Park in the post-Games mode and represent 60% of the total land of Rio 2016 Olympic Park.

In order to enable the construction of the Aquatic Stadium, the Tennis Centre, the Velodrome and the Future Arena, the City signed a technical cooperation agreement with the Federal Government. The Union contributed with the resources for the works and the municipal government funded the basic and executive projects, besides taking responsibility for the execution of works.

OLYMPIC EXPERIMENTAL SCHOOLS

One of the legacies of the 2016 Olympic Games in Education, the Experimental Olympic Schools program (GEO) aims to provide opportunities for students with sports skills from the 6th to 9th grades of the municipal net to develop their potential while receiving quality education. The program has already opened three units - Santa Teresa, Guaratiba and Caju - and 1.207 students were benefited.

In the three GEOs currently in operation, the sports offered are athletics, table tennis, volleyball, handball, judo, chess, wrestling, football and badminton. Besides these disciplines, the units of Santa Teresa and Pedra de Guaratiba also offer swimming. In order to join the GEO, the student must take a physical fitness test.

In addition to the practice routine, at least two daily hours of sports activities and participation in various competitions, students have Portuguese, Mathematics, Science and English classes, tutoring and the obligation to get good grades to continue training. In addition to academic excellence, support to the life project of the student and the values for education also form the basis of the education program of these units.

The program's first school, in Santa Teresa, is named after the former IOC president Juan Antonio Samaranch, who died in April 2010. The unit started operating in early 2012 and already serves 525 students. In 2013 were inaugurated the Olympic Schools Dr. Sócrates, in Pedra de Guaratiba, currently with 353 students, and Félix Mielli Venerando, at Caju, with 329.

Educational Results

The GEO Samaranch, in Santa Teresa, opened in 2012, was among the top 10 results of the educational network in IDERio in Final Years (6th to 9th grade), with an average grade of 7.4. Published in 2015, the index used to measure the quality of teaching was based on the evaluation of the Rio Exam of 2014.

Sports ResultsThe GEOs have featured in various disciplines and received numerous awards in sports competitions. The wrestling team of GEO Felix Mielli Venerando in Caju Neighborhood, opened in 2013, was champion in all events in which they participated. Among them, two stages of the Wrestling State Champions League of Rio de Janeiro State and the Student Games of the Rio de Janeiro State. In addition, two school students were classified to the national stage of the Youth Games (COB).

In 2014, GEO Santa Teresa was the first public educational unit to win the Intercollegiate in history, a competition between private and public schools of Rio State. The Municipal Education Department partners with the Olympic Committee of the Netherlands since 2013, allowing sports missions to be made with Olympic and Paralympic athletes to workshops with students and teachers of GEOs Juan Samaranch, Felix Mielli and Dr. Socrates. Visits are made twice a year.

OLYMPIC VILLAGES

The Municipal Secretariat of Sports and Leisure (SMEL, its acronym in Portuguese) develops the practice of physical activities and sports in their 21 Olympic Villages around the city. There are 100 free activities among Olympic, non-Olympic, Paralympic, recreational and cultural assisting more than 30.000 children and adults of all ages enrolled in activities with set schedules and guided by skilled professionals.

The Olympic Villages are located throughout the city as follows: nine in the North Zone (Mangueira, Vila Isabel, two in Ramos, Maré, Encantado, Penha, Honório Gurgel and Acari), seven in the West Zone (Jacarepaguá, Vila Kennedy, Padre Miguel, Campo Grande, Santa Cruz, Pedra Guaratiba and Deodoro), four Downtown (Center, Gamboa, Santo Cristo and Caju) and one in the South Zone (Vidigal).
