Data consulted on 02/10/2026.

## Basis
- [Law No. 11.101/2005 (Planalto, in Portuguese)](https://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/_ato2004-2006/2005/lei/l11101.htm): Arts. 33 and 34 establish personal notification immediately after appointment, a 48-hour deadline to sign the commitment term at the court's headquarters, and the consequences of non-signature by the judicial administrator.

## How it applies
This requirement applies immediately after the appointment of the judicial administrator and Committee of Creditors members. They receive personal notification and have 48 hours to appear at the court's headquarters and sign the commitment term, assuming all responsibilities inherent to the position of faithfully and diligently performing their duties. If the judicial administrator fails to sign the term within the specified deadline, the judge will appoint another judicial administrator, as expressly provided in the governing legislation.

## Limits
- This record is limited exclusively to the deadline and consequences of signing the commitment term by the appointed individuals, as per the consulted source.
- The analyzed text of Law No. 11.101/2005 does not detail individual consequences for each Committee member who fails to sign, limiting itself to providing for the appointment of another judicial administrator in case of non-signature within the deadline.
- Subsequent changes in legislation must be verified directly in the official publications of Planalto.
