MANIFESTAÇÃO DA CONSELHEIRA RITA REBELO DE ASSIS FONSECA NA REUNIÃO DO CONSELHO DA USINAS SIDERÚRGICAS DE MINAS GERAIS S.A. – USIMINAS
DE 27 DE OUTUBRO DE 2016
Eu quero aproveitar a oportunidade para, em linha com o que já foi falado por outros Conselheiros, incluindo o Presidente do Conselho e representante dos empregados, agradecer os serviços prestados pela Diretoria da Usiminas eleita em 25 de maio deste ano, que em curtíssimo prazo obteve resultados muito expressivos. Isso só vem demonstrar que a Companhia é capaz de sair da situação financeira em que se encontra. Assim, conclamo mais uma vez a todos aqui presentes – representantes dos Acionistas, Conselheiros e Diretores – a buscar o entendimento para colocar fim às disputas que afetam os órgãos de administração da Usiminas e tem impedido inclusive a eleição de uma Diretoria definitiva para por fim a uma situação de interinidade que incrivelmente já dura mais de dois anos, o que é motivo de grande preocupação. Compartilho também da preocupação do conselheiro Gesner e de outros que já se manifestaram neste mesmo sentido quanto à necessidade de se buscar uma harmonia e a coesão entre os órgãos de administração, elementos fundamentais como bem disse aquele conselheiro, para a recuperação da Usiminas.

Como é de conhecimento de todos, esta é a primeira vez que este Conselho se reúne
depois da decisão da Décima Primeira Câmara Cível do Tribunal de Justiça do Estado
de Minas Gerais que suspendeu a deliberação deste Conselho que havia eleito
Diretores para cumprir mandato até a assembleia geral de 2018, pondo fim a uma
situação de interinidade que perdurava há mais de dois anos.
Diante disso, em primeiro lugar gostaria de agradecer aos Diretores eleitos na Reunião
de Conselho de Administração de 25 de maio de 2016 por seus serviços e pelos
