prospectus relates to a share exchange transaction, or the Share Exchange, wherein the preferred shares of Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A., or RIPI, Distribuidora de Produtos de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A., or DPPI, and Companhia
Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga, or CBPI, will be exchanged for preferred shares of Ultrapar Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es S.A., or Ultrapar. In addition, as part of the Share Exchange, all remaining outstanding common shares of RIPI, DPPI and
CBPI will be exchanged for Ultrapar preferred shares. The Share Exchange is part of a multi-step acquisition, or the Transaction, by Ultrapar of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI, which together with their subsidiaries make up the Ipiranga Group. The Transaction
is being conducted by Ultrapar on its own behalf and on behalf of Petr&oacute;leo Brasileiro S.A., or Petrobras, and Braskem S.A., or Braskem, and following completion of the Transaction, Ultrapar, Petrobras and Braskem will divide among themselves
all of the Ipiranga Group&#146;s assets and operations, including those of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As discussed herein, RIPI, DPPI and
CBPI have each called extraordinary shareholders meetings for the purpose of allowing their respective common shareholders to determine whether to approve the Share Exchange. Since Ultrapar currently holds more than a majority of each of RIPI, DPPI
and CBPI&#146;s common shares, the Share Exchange will be approved at such shareholders&#146; meetings. Holders of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI preferred shares are not entitled to vote at meetings of the shareholders of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI. Accordingly,
once the RIPI, DPPI and CBPI common shareholders approve the Share Exchange, your only alternatives prior to the Share Exchange will be (i)&nbsp;to hold your RIPI, DPPI or CBPI preferred shares and participate in the Share Exchange, (ii)&nbsp;to
dispose of your RIPI, DPPI or CBPI preferred shares or (iii) if you are a RIPI or DPPI preferred shareholder to exercise appraisal rights pursuant to Brazilian law and request that RIPI or DPPI, as applicable, purchase your preferred shares, as
explained further in this prospectus. According to Brazilian Law, holders of CBPI shares, which are highly liquid, are not entitled to appraisal rights. Your right to exercise appraisal rights will be triggered by publication of the approval of the
Share Exchange at RIPI&#146;s and DPPI&#146;s respective extraordinary shareholder meetings. Once you notify the company whose shares you hold that you wish to exercise your appraisal rights, such request is irrevocable. </FONT></P>  <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In connection with the Share Exchange, Ultrapar will issue 54,704,948 new preferred shares, which includes 1,043,359 preferred shares issued to the common
shareholders RIPI, DPPI and CBPI. Each RIPI, DPPI and CBPI preferred share will be exchanged for Ultrapar preferred shares in accordance with the ratio of 0.79850, 0.64048 and 0.41846 Ultrapar preferred shares for each RIPI, DPPI and CBPI preferred
share, respectively. On March&nbsp;16, 2007, the last full trading day in S&atilde;o Paulo prior to the announcement of the Transaction, the implied value of the consideration per share of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI preferred stock was R$39.36, R$31.57 and
R$20.63, respectively, and on November 9, 2007, the latest practicable date prior to the date of this document, the implied value of the consideration per share of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI preferred stock was R$53.45, R$42.85 and R$27.99, respectively.
Ultrapar&#146;s preferred shares are listed on the BOVESPA stock exchange in Brazil under the ticker symbol &#147;UGPA4.&#148; American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, representing Ultrapar&#146;s preferred shares are listed on the New York Stock

intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.&nbsp;142, or SFAS No.&nbsp;142, the amount of goodwill will be evaluated for impairment annually, and, if an impairment exists, its
recorded value will be adjusted accordingly. Purchase price includes direct costs of acquisition. If assets other than cash are distributed as part of the purchase price, such assets should be valued at fair value. When securities traded in the
market are issued as part of the purchase price by the acquiring entity, the market price for a reasonable period before and after the date the terms of the acquisition are agreed to and announced should be considered in the determining purchase
price. Under SFAS No.&nbsp;141, any excess of net assets of the purchase price is first allocated to reduce the allocated amount of long-term assets, and any unallocated amount is recognized as an extraordinary gain in the statement of operations.

strategic alignment to their respective assets. In addition, we believe that the Acquiring Companies will be able to make higher levels of investments in the Ipiranga Group assets they acquire and therefore develop their businesses to a greater

shares&#146; high level of liquidity and the dispersion of CBPI&#146;s shareholder base. CBPI&#146;s preferred shares are included in the IBOVESPA stock index, which is the most actively traded in Brazil. Under Brazilian law, when such conditions
are met, as in the case of CBPI&#146;s preferred shares, shareholders do not have appraisal rights. RIPI and DPPI shareholders&#146; appraisal rights may be exercised only by owners of record of RIPI and DPPI shares as of the last trading date prior
to the first public announcement relating to the Share Exchange, which was March 19, 2007. Holders of DPPI preferred shares who exercise their appraisal rights may choose to receive an amount per share based on book value or liquidation value
because the exchange ratio calculated with reference to liquidation value is more favorable to DPPI shareholders than the exchange ratio offered by Ultrapar (which was calculated based on economic value). RIPI shareholders may exercise their
appraisal rights based on book value only. Book values to be paid to RIPI and DPPI shareholders will&nbsp;be R$19.50&nbsp;per RIPI share and R$25.13&nbsp;per DPPI share and are based on RIPI&#146;s balance sheet as&nbsp;of December&nbsp;31,

through DPPI and CBPI as discussed below, had a significant presence in the petrochemical market, with the production of 650&nbsp;thousand tons of petrochemical resins a year. The Ipiranga Group conducted its petrochemical business through IQ and
IPQ and a 29.5% interest in Copesul (with Braskem owning another 29.5%), a petrochemical company that produces basic petrochemicals, such as ethylene, from naphtha, located in the southern petrochemical complex, which is Brazil&#146;s second-largest

the Ipiranga Group. As of December 31, 2006, RIPI&#146;s nominal capacity was 17,000 barrels per day, and its principal products include gasoline, diesel, naphtha, fuel oil, LPG and kerosene. During 2006, RIPI faced difficulties in keeping its
operations at full capacity due to an increase in international oil prices, to which its costs are linked, without a corresponding increase in oil derivatives prices in Brazil. This led RIPI to suspend its operations for five months during the year.
In 2006, the average production of the refinery was 7,158 barrels per day, which represented 42% of the refinery&#146;s nominal capacity, and RIPI&#146;s market share reached 0.4% of the Brazilian market. </FONT></P> <P

their preferred shares to RIPI at their book value. In the Share Exchange, DPPI preferred shareholders&#146; appraisal rights will provide them the right to sell their preferred shares to DPPI at either book value or the liquidation value, at their
sole discretion, because the exchange ratio calculated with reference to the liquidation value is more favorable than the exchange ratio offered by Ultrapar, which was calculated with reference to the economic value of such shares. </FONT></P> <P

them that they intend to exercise their appraisal rights. Upon receipt of the notice, RIPI and DPPI are bound to buy the preferred shares, and the shareholder is bound to sell them, unless the management of Ultrapar, RIPI or DPPI decides to
reconsider the Share Exchange, as explained below. The exercise of appraisal rights is irrevocable. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>RIPI Will Hold Its Extraordinary

that the Transaction or part of the Transaction has a material adverse effect on competition in Brazil, it may require that Ultrapar, Braskem or Petrobras divest all or part of the assets acquired in the Transaction. In light of the fact that the
assets we are acquiring in the Transaction relate to industries in which we have not historically operated, we do not believe that we will be required to divest any of such assets as a result of the review of the Transaction by the Brazilian

actually have been if the proposed transaction had in fact occurred on the dates indicated below. Consequently, you are cautioned not to base investment decisions on the pro forma financial statements. Furthermore, there can be no certainty that the
proposed transaction will be completed in the manner described herein, if at all. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The unaudited pro forma financial information was
prepared in accordance with Brazilian GAAP, which differs in certain material respects from U.S. GAAP. The unaudited pro forma financial information includes a pro forma reconciliation of shareholders&#146; equity and net income from Brazilian GAAP

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On March&nbsp;19, 2007, Ultrapar, Petrobras and Braskem announced their intent to acquire the Ipiranga Group and on March&nbsp;18, 2007, Ultrapar entered into, and Petrobras and Braskem acknowledged, a Share Purchase
Agreement, or the SPA, with the Key Shareholders of the principal companies comprising the Ipiranga Group: RIPI, DPPI and CBPI. As discussed further below, in connection with the Transaction, Ultrapar is acting on its own behalf and on behalf of
Petrobras and Braskem pursuant to the Transaction Agreements. See &#147;&#151;Transaction Agreements.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To finance part of the
Ipiranga Group acquisition, on April&nbsp;11, 2007, we completed an offering of unsecured debentures in the aggregate principal amount of R$889 million, in two series. The first series, in the aggregate amount of R$675 million, was issued on
April&nbsp;11, 2007. The second series, in the aggregate amount of R$214 million, was issued on October 22, 2007. The debentures have a term of one year, and a coupon rate of 102.5% of the interbank deposit certificates index, or CDI. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">After the completion of the Transaction, the businesses of the Ipiranga Group will be divided among Petrobras, Ultrapar and Braskem. Ultrapar will retain
the fuel and lubricant distribution businesses located in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil, as well as the logistics and chemical business of the Ipiranga Group; Petrobras will receive the fuel and lubricant distribution businesses located
in the North, Northeast and Central West regions of Brazil; and Petrobras and Braskem will receive the petrochemical business, in the proportion of 60% for Braskem and 40% for Petrobras. RIPI&#146;s oil refining operations will be shared equally
among Petrobras, Ultrapar and Braskem. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Transaction is divided into five phases: (1)&nbsp;the acquisition by Ultrapar of the RIPI, DPPI
and CBPI shares held by the Key Shareholders which closed on April&nbsp;18, 2007; (2)&nbsp;the mandatory tender offers (pursuant to tag along rights held by common minority shareholders under Brazilian Corporate Law and CVM rules) for the
acquisition of the remaining common shares of RIPI, DPPI, CBPI and IPQ; (3)&nbsp;the tender offer by Braskem for the delisting of Copesul&#146;s common shares from the BOVESPA; (4)&nbsp;exchange of the remaining common and preferred shares of RIPI,
DPPI and CBPI for preferred shares of Ultrapar, of which the Share Exchange forms a substantial part; and (5)&nbsp;separation of the Target Companies&#146; assets. The completion of the Transaction is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2007.

CBPI preferred shares certain historical, pro forma and pro forma-equivalent per share financial information. The pro forma and pro forma-equivalent per share information gives effect to the Transaction as if the Share Exchange had been effective on
January 1, 2006, in the case of the basic earnings, diluted earnings and dividends data. The pro forma data in the tables assume that the Transaction is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and represents a current estimate based on
available information of the Combined Company&#146;s results of operations. The information in the following table is based on, and should be read together with, the financial information included in this prospectus and in our 2006 Form 20-F, which
is included as Annex A hereto. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Transaction is anticipated to provide Ultrapar with financial benefits that include reduced operating
expenses and revenue enhancement opportunities. While the pro forma information is helpful in illustrating Ultrapar&#146;s financial performance under one set of assumptions, it does not reflect the impact of possible revenue enhancements, expense
efficiencies, asset dispositions and share repurchases, among other factors, that may result as a consequence of the Transaction and, accordingly, does not attempt to predict or suggest future results. It also does not necessarily reflect what the
historical results of Ultrapar following the Transaction would have been had the companies been combined during these periods. Following the closing of the SPA on April&nbsp;18, 2007, whereby Ultrapar acquired a controlling interest in the Target
Companies, Ultrapar has included in its consolidated financial statements the portion of the Target Companies&#146; financial results that Ultrapar will retain following completion of the Transaction. </FONT></P>  <P

courts. Such complaints may cause interruptions and delays in the Share Exchange and in the completion of the Transaction as envisioned by Ultrapar. The complaints filed with the CVM to date focused on the level of disclosure and certain of the
projections, assumptions and comparable companies used by Deutsche Bank in its valuation report. Deutsche Bank amended its report to comply with requests for additional explanatory disclosure from the CVM. No changes were made to the quantitative
information included in this report as a result of the complaints or the CVM review. The final copy of the report is included as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. </FONT></P> <P

spin-offs of CBPI, DPPI and RIPI. See &#147;The Transaction.&#148; The alternative corporate reorganization selected may not provide you with the same economic benefits, as a holder of RIPI, DPPI or CBPI preferred shares, as you would receive in the

<P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Background of the Transaction </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultrapar&#146;s
board of directors has from time to time engaged Ultrapar&#146;s senior management in strategic discussions and has considered ways to continue growing and enhancing Ultrapar&#146;s performance and prospects in light of competitive and other
relevant developments. Ultrapar&#146;s growth strategy has focused on organic expansion and acquisition opportunities in the businesses in which it operates or in complementary ones. </FONT></P>  <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In September 2006, Ultrapar hired Est&aacute;ter Assessoria Financeira Ltda. to advise and help it to evaluate the Target Companies, conduct the
discussions with the Key Shareholders, structure the Transaction and prepare a binding offer. We also hired Machado, Meyer, Sendacz e Opice Advogados as our Brazilian legal counsel and Davis Polk&nbsp;&amp; Wardwell as our U.S. legal counsel. In
parallel, we engaged in conversations with Braskem and Petrobras that led to the execution of the Investment Agreement based upon such companies&#146; interests in keeping the Ipiranga Group&#146;s Petrochemical Business and part of its fuel
distribution business. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The price established for the acquisition of the RIPI, DPPI and CBPI shares was the result of a complex negotiation
process. The negotiation was particularly complex due to the large number of parties involved. On the one hand, there were three purchasing parties&#151;Ultrapar, Petrobras and Braskem&#151;each of which was interested in different parts of Grupo
Ipiranga&#146;s businesses; and on the other hand, there were 67 individuals as selling shareholders, each of whom owned different interests in each of the three Target Companies. Each one of these parties had its own vision of the Ipiranga
Group&#146;s businesses, of the value of the assets being acquired and, most importantly, had an independent right to decide whether or not to enter into the SPA. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As a result, the price established for the acquisition of the RIPI, DPPI and CBPI shares does not represent the vision of one party or group of parties, but rather reflects a series of compromises necessary for all of
the parties to reach a mutually satisfactory agreement. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On March&nbsp;15, 2007, Ultrapar&#146;s board of directors approved
(i)&nbsp;a binding offer for the purchase of the shares of the Target Companies owned by the Key Shareholders and (ii)&nbsp;the execution by Ultrapar&#146;s executive officers of all documents related to the Transaction. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The offer was presented to the Key Shareholders on March&nbsp;17, 2007 and accepted on March&nbsp;18, 2007. The Share Purchase Agreement and other
related documents were executed on March&nbsp;18, 2007, and the Transaction was announced in press releases issued by Ultrapar, Braskem, Petrobras, and the Target Companies on March&nbsp;19, 2007. </FONT></P>  <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On November 9, 2007, the management of Ultrapar and each of the Target Companies entered into the Protocol and Justifications, in which they each agreed
to recommend to their respective boards of directors that such boards approve the Share Exchange and call meetings of shareholders required for the common shareholders of each company to approve the Share Exchange. The Protocol and Justifications
describe the material reasons each of the management of Ultrapar and the Target Companies determined that it was in the best interests of each of their respective companies to recommend to the respective boards of directors that they approve the
Share Exchange. See &#147;Transaction Agreements&#151;Protocol and Justifications&#148; for more information regarding these agreements and the matters described therein. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Through the Transaction, Ultrapar is participating in an important step in the reorganization and consolidation of sectors that are fundamental to the
growth of the Brazilian economy. Ultrapar believes the division of the Ipiranga Group&#146;s assets among Ultrapar, Braskem and Petrobras will benefit the Brazilian economy because the Acquiring Companies will be in a position to provide focus,
specialized management and strategic alignment to their respective assets. In addition, we believe that the Acquiring Companies will be able to make higher levels of investments in the Ipiranga Group assets they acquire and therefore develop their
businesses to a greater extent than under the former owners, thereby stimulating growth in these key areas of the Brazilian economy. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The
Ipiranga Group, one of Brazil&#146;s largest and most well-established corporate conglomerates, operated in the same segments as Petrobras, Ultrapar and Braskem. In 2006, the Ipiranga Group was Brazil&#146;s second-largest fuel distributor, with a
network of 4,240 service stations. It also had a significant share of the petrochemical market, with the production of 650,000 tons of petrochemical resins through IPQ, and shared joint control with Braskem of Copesul, a petrochemical company that
produces basic petrochemicals, such as ethylene, from naphtha, located in the southern petrochemical complex, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The consolidated net revenues of the Ipiranga Group in 2006 amounted to R$31 billion and net income
amounted to R$534 million. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Following the Transaction, Ultrapar, already the largest LPG distributor in Brazil, became the second-largest
group in the fuel distribution business in Brazil, with approximately 15% market share. Ultrapar believes that fuel distribution is a natural extension of LPG distribution because it has similar profitability drivers: logistics efficiency,
management of a dealer network and leveraging a renowned brand. In addition, Ultrapar believes that the fuel distribution business presents attractive growth prospects in light of increased fuel consumption in Brazil in the past several years,
principally due to increased national income and availability of credit. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Operational growth&#151;already the leader in LPG

acquisition of the Ipiranga Group allowed Ultrapar to expand its operations in the oil-based fuel distribution business. Operating in Brazil since 1937, Ultragaz introduced LPG for domestic cooking and has become the Brazilian market leader in LPG,
with a 24% market share, according to Sindigas - <I>Sindicato Nacional das Empresas Distribuidoras de G&aacute;s Liq&uuml;efeito de Petr&oacute;leo</I> (the National Association of Liquid Petroleum Gas Distributors). As a result of Ultragaz&#146;
leadership position and the worldwide LPG market&#146;s maturity, Ultrapar feels that increasing its portfolio of products is important and fuel distribution is a natural extension of its LPG business. After closing of the SPA, in addition to being
Brazil&#146;s leading LPG distributor, Ultrapar has become Brazil&#146;s second largest distributor of fuels and lubricants, with a market share of approximately 15%, based on information provided by ANP - <I>Ag&ecirc;ncia Nacional de

We believe such brands are associated with quality, safety and efficiency. These brands&#146; reputations, combined with Ultrapar&#146;s ability to invest, positions Ultrapar to benefit from growth opportunities through the supply of high-quality
products and services and the introduction of new services and distribution channels. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Accelerate investments in the growth of

efficient decision-making processes together with its solid financial position to leverage investment in Ipiranga and to thereby accelerate expansion through organic growth and acquisitions, in order to strengthen its market share in the regions in
which it operates and to expand further into the rest of Brazil. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Potential growth in Brazilian consumption</I>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Recent economic indicators, including from IBGE -<I> Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estat&iacute;stica</I>, or the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, have shown a decrease in Brazilian unemployment from 10% in September 2006 to 9%
in September 2007. IBGE indicators have also shown an improvement in Brazilian GDP, which increased by 5% in the first half of 2007, compared to the same period in 2006. These factors, together with greater credit availability, as indicated by the
25% increase in the total amount of credit in the Brazilian financial system in the eight-month period ended August 2007, compared to the same period in 2006, according to the Brazilian Central Bank, have resulted in record levels of vehicle sales
in the first half of 2007, which increased 25.7% in terms of new vehicles registered compared to the same period in 2006. Despite record car sales, however, Brazil&#146;s current fleet is small compared to other Latin American countries, with 8
inhabitants per vehicle, whereas Argentina and Mexico have 5 inhabitants per vehicle, according to ANFAVEA - <I>Associa&ccedil;&atilde;o Nacional dos Fabricantes Ve&iacute;culos Automotores</I> (Brazilian Association of Vehicle Producers).
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Based on the current expansion in the economy and recent increases in the availability of credit, together with the low ratio of
inhabitants per vehicle, Ultrapar believes the outlook for increased Brazilian fuel consumption is positive in the near-term. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Potential
growth in the biofuel market.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A highlight of the Brazilian automotive sector in 2007 was an increase in the number of flex-fuel vehicles, which run on engines adapted to function using either gasoline or ethanol, or any
combination of the two. Currently flex-fuel vehicles account for approximately 11% of Brazil&#146;s fleet, with the potential to increase to more than 50% in the next 5 years, according to Anfavea&#146;s forecast (Ag&ecirc;ncia Nacional dos
Fabricantes de Ve&iacute;culos Automotores). </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Consistently strong financial position.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ultrapar has a
consistent track record of growth focused on fiscal discipline. In part as a result of its solid financial position, Standard&nbsp;&amp; Poor&#146;s assigned the company a credit rating of brAA+ on a national scale (equivalent to Brazilian sovereign
risk) and BB+ on a global scale, one grade below investment grade, which ratings were reassigned after the announcement of the Transaction. Ultrapar&#146;s strong financial position allows it to increase its investments without compromising its
solid financial position. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultrapar acquired a controlling interest in the common shares of the Target Companies in connection with the SPA. We believe the Key Shareholders agreed
to enter into the SPA and sell their controlling interest in the Target Companies to Ultrapar because they considered the price offered for their securities to be attractive and they had an interest in monetizing their shareholdings. </FONT></P>

SIZE="2"><B><I>Overview </I></B></FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On March&nbsp;19, 2007, Ultrapar, Petrobras and Braskem announced their intent to acquire the Ipiranga
Group and that on March&nbsp;18, 2007, Ultrapar entered into, and Petrobras and Braskem acknowledged, a Share Purchase Agreement, or the SPA, with the Key Shareholders of the principal companies comprising the Ipiranga Group: RIPI, DPPI and CBPI. As
discussed further below, in connection with the Transaction, Ultrapar is acting on its own behalf and on behalf of Petrobras and Braskem pursuant to the Transaction Agreements. See &#147;&#151;Transaction Agreements.&#148; </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To finance part of the Ipiranga Group acquisition, we issued unsecured debentures in the aggregate principal amount of R$889 million, in two series. The
first series, in the aggregate amount of R$675 million, was issued on April&nbsp;11, 2007. The second series, in the aggregate amount of R$214 million, was issued on October 22, 2007. The debentures have a term of one year, and a coupon rate of
102.5% of the interbank deposit certificates index, or CDI. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">After the completion of the Transaction, the businesses of the Ipiranga
Group will be divided among Petrobras, Ultrapar and Braskem. Ultrapar will retain the fuel and lubricant distribution businesses located in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil, as well as the logistics and chemical business of Ipiranga Group;
Petrobras will receive the fuel and lubricant distribution businesses located in the North, Northeast and Central West regions of Brazil; and Petrobras and Braskem will receive the petrochemical business, in the proportion of 60% for Braskem and 40%
for Petrobras. RIPI&#146;s oil refining operations will be shared equally among Petrobras, Ultrapar and Braskem. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Before the
Transaction there was no corporate relationship among Ultrapar, Braskem and Petrobras. Petrobras and Braskem, however, are principal suppliers to Ultrapar&#146;s subsidiaries Ultragaz and Oxiteno: Petrobras supplies LPG to Ultragaz and Braskem is
one of the principal suppliers of ethylene to Oxiteno. Considering the type and size of the different businesses operated by the Ipiranga Group and in light of the interests of Petrobras and Braskem to expand in the petrochemical sector, as well as
Petrobras&#146; desire to expand its fuel distribution business in Brazil, Ultrapar, Petrobras and Braskem decided to undertake the Transaction together. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT

acquisition by Ultrapar of the RIPI, DPPI and CBPI shares held by the Key Shareholders, which closed on April&nbsp;18, 2007; (2)&nbsp;the mandatory tender offers (pursuant to tag along rights held by common minority shareholders under Brazilian
Corporate Law and CVM rules) for the acquisition of the remaining common shares of RIPI, DPPI, CBPI and IPQ, or the Mandatory Tender Offers, which were completed on November 8, 2007; (3)&nbsp;the tender offer by Braskem for the delisting of
Copesul&#146;s common shares from the BOVESPA, or the Public Tender Offer, which occurred on October 17, 2007; (4)&nbsp;exchange of the remaining common and preferred shares of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI for preferred shares of Ultrapar, or the Share
Exchange; and (5)&nbsp;separation of the Target Companies&#146; assets, or the Separation of Assets. The completion of the Transaction is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2007. </FONT></P>  <P

N&ordm; 361, Ultrapar filed on May&nbsp;2, 2007 with the CVM a request to register the Mandatory Tender Offers. Under Brazilian law, the price per share we are required to offer in the Mandatory Tender Offers must equal at least 80% of the price
paid to the Key Shareholders. On September&nbsp;14, 2007, the CVM approved the registration of the Mandatory Tender Offers for RIPI and DPPI&#146;s common shares. On the same date, in connection with its review of the registration of the Mandatory
Tender Offer for CBPI&#146;s common shares, the CVM, through the Securities Registry Department, or SRE, determined that Ultrapar must carry out the Mandatory Tender Offer for CBPI&#146;s common shares at a price of R$64.43 per common share, and not
R$58.10, which was the price per share originally offered by Ultrapar. The SRE stated that it believed R$64.43 per share was the appropriate price to offer the remaining holders of CBPI common shares. The increase in the per share purchase price
requested by the SRE increased the expected total cost of the CBPI Mandatory Tender Offer from R$175 million to R$194 million. The SRE&#146;s decision was subject to appeal. However, in light of our obligation to avoid excessive delays in completing
the Transaction and our focus on not delaying payments to CBPI&#146;s minority common shareholders, we decided not to appeal the decision and adopted the price of R$64.43 per CBPI common share for the CBPI Mandatory Tender Offer. The registration of

out a mandatory tender offer for the purchase of common shares held by the minority shareholders of IPQ. However, given the small number of minority shareholders of IPQ, the CVM waived the requirement for a mandatory tender offer. Accordingly,
Braskem and Petrobras negotiated directly with the minority shareholders of IPQ and purchased their common shares on June 28, 2007, without a formal tender offer. In connection with these direct purchases, 2,427,807,049 shares were purchased
from&nbsp;minority shareholders, representing 7.61% of the capital stock of IPQ, at R$0.05 per share, or R$118&nbsp;million for all shares acquired. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

purchased 34,040,927 shares, which corresponds to 99% of the total shares registered for the auction of the offer. The minimum percentage of shares required to be purchased for the delisting of Copesul was 67%. The delisting of Copesul&#146;s common

SIZE="2"><B></B><B></B>CVM Rule No. 361/02 requires that one of three basic methodologies be used in preparation of a valuation report: economic value, market value or book value. Deutsche Bank believes that the economic value analysis based on
discounted cash flow (&#147;DCF&#148;) is the most appropriate methodology for valuing Ultrapar, RIPI, DPPI and CBPI because the DCF analysis takes into consideration the future unlevered free cash flows of such companies and accounts for the time
value of money by calculating the present value of the future cash flows, providing a more detailed picture of the investment to be valued by allowing the evaluator to consider a larger amount of information and a longer timeframe in its analysis.
For certain business lines and subsidiaries of the Ipiranga Group, representing less than 10% of Ipiranga Group&#146;s consolidated value, Deutsche Bank believes that&nbsp;an economic value analysis based on comparable multiples is the most

involved comparing certain financial information and commonly used valuation measurements for the applicable business line to corresponding information and measurements for a publicly traded company or a group of publicly traded companies in the
same industry. The comparable public company analyses were conducted on a comparison of multiples for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, for 2006, except for certain petrochemical business lines for which a
normalized average EBITDA (based on a three to five-year period) was used. The companies comprising each comparison group were chosen primarily because Deutsche Bank believed they share similar business characteristics to the respective business

operations, target customers, product offerings, financial and operating metrics or other characteristics differ substantially from the analyzed business lines. The companies were selected based on their similarities to the businesses developed by
each of the Ipiranga Group Companies, with special attention to value drivers, growth potential and margins. Deutsche Bank used comparable transactions when they were available, and reviewed trading public companies that most closely replicated the
business of the company being assessed. Deutsche Bank excluded from the sample companies or transactions that were not sufficiently comparable to the company being assessed. RIPI Opco was valued based on comparisons with Alon USA, Delek US Holdings
and Frontier Oil. IQ and IASA were valued based on precedent transaction multiples as set forth in Apendix II of the Deutsche Bank Valuation Report. EMCA was valued based on commodity and specialty listed companies multiples as set forth in Apendix
II of the Deutsche Bank Valuation Report. AM/PM was valued based on Pao de Acucar&#151;CBD&#146;s trading multiples. Isa-Sul was valued based on the implied multiple derived from the DCF valuation of DPPI. </FONT></P>  <P

this and basic accounting principles, the methodology used presumes book value of a company&#146;s assets minus the book value of its liabilities is equal to the book value of its net equity. This methodology first considers the book value of the
assets and liabilities, and requires adjustments to a few of these items, so as to reflect their likely liquidation values. The result of this method may&nbsp;give an initial base to estimate a company&#146;s value, and a useful base to compare the
results of other methodologies. The asset approach attempts to determine a company&#146;s value by adjusting the book values (net balance) to their respective fair market values. The assets and liabilities deemed relevant are evaluated by their fair
market value, comparing this value to its book value (net balance). </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The general appraisal criteria used to adjust the assets subject

Ultrapar and the Ipiranga Group, but it does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses performed by Apsis. The preparation of the valuation report is a complex process involving technical judgments and is not necessarily adequately
represented by partial analyses or summary description. Accordingly, Apsis believes that its analyses, and the summary set forth above, must be considered as a whole, and that selecting portions of the analyses, without considering all of the
analyses and factors, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying the analyses conducted by Apsis and its valuation report. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In its analyses, Apsis made numerous assumptions with respect to Ultrapar, RIPI, DPPI and CBPI, their respective subsidiaries, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters, many of
which are beyond the control of Ultrapar, the Ipiranga Group and Apsis. Any estimates contained in Apsis&#146; analyses are not necessarily indicative of actual values or predictive of future results or values, which may be significantly more or
less favorable than those suggested by these analyses. Estimates of the values of Ultrapar and the Ipiranga Group do not purport to be appraisals or necessarily to reflect the prices at which Ultrapar and the Ipiranga Group may actually be sold.
Because these estimates are inherently subject to uncertainty, none of Ultrapar, RPI, DPPI, CBPI, Apsis, their respective affiliates or any other person assumes responsibility if future results or actual values differ materially from the estimates.

company engaged in, among others, the valuation of companies and other businesses and their securities in Brazil and elsewhere in connection with mergers and acquisitions, restructurings, leveraged buyouts, negotiated underwritings, competitive
biddings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and valuations for corporate and other purposes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Credit Suisse

Corporate Law (<I>Lei das Sociedades An&ocirc;nimas</I>), the Share Exchange constitutes a stock merger (<I>incorpora&ccedil;&atilde;o de a&ccedil;&otilde;es</I>), whereby all shares of a target company are transferred to an acquiring company. The
shareholders of the target company receive shares in the acquiring company in exchange for their shares in the target company. The result of the stock merger is that the target company becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of the acquiring company, and
the shareholders of the target company become shareholders of the acquiring company. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In order for a stock merger to be carried out,
general meetings of the shareholders of both the target and acquiring companies must be held and the shareholders of the two companies must approve the stock merger. Only holders of common shares have the right to vote at shareholders&#146;
meetings. Preferred shareholders do not have the right to vote. In accordance with Brazilian Corporate Law a stock merger becomes mandatory for all shareholders, even the preferred shareholders who do not have the right to vote, if approved at the
relevant shareholders meeting. When the Share Exchange is approved, shareholders who dissent from the decision have the right to exercise appraisal rights against their company, according to the Brazilian Corporate Law. </FONT></P>  <P

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In connection with the Share Purchase Agreement, which closed on April&nbsp;18, 2007, Ultrapar acquired a controlling interest in the common shares of
each of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI. On the same date, Ultrapar, Braskem and Petrobras executed two shareholders&#146; agreements, one for RIPI, and the other for DPPI, CBPI, ICQ and IPQ, which established the rights and obligations among Ultrapar,
Petrobras and Braskem relating to the management and control of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI during the period in which the Transaction is being completed. These agreements were signed in order to ensure that (i)&nbsp;Ultrapar fulfills its obligations owed
to Petrobras and Braskem, including those established under the Investment Agreement, and (ii)&nbsp;Petrobras and Braskem are each entitled to manage, during the period in which the Transaction is being completed, the assets of RIPI, DPPI and CBPI
that each such company will receive in the separation of assets that will occur in connection with the completion of the Transaction. For the closing of the SPA Ultrapar received funds from Braskem and Petrobras which were recorded as a liability,
with an offsetting asset, since the net assets acquired for Braskem and Petrobras under the commission agreement are not controlled by, and will not remain with, Ultrapar. As a result, for the portion of the Target Companies&#146; net assets that
will be transferred to Braskem and Petrobras, the net effect in Ultrapar&#146;s financial statements under Brazilian GAAP and U.S.&nbsp;GAAP is zero. For the portion of the Target Companies&#146; net assets that will remain with Ultrapar, the
difference between the price paid for them and their Brazilian GAAP book value was recorded as goodwill and is being amortized over 10 years. Under U.S.&nbsp;GAAP we adopted the purchase method of accounting for a step acquisition under the
provisions of SFAS 141 &#147;Business Combination&#148;. Goodwill was recognized based on the excess of Ultrapar&#146;s acquisition cost over the net amounts assigned to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is subject

to Braskem and Petrobras in exchange for the funds received in steps 1 and 2 and will receive cash from Braskem and Petrobras for the portion of assets acquired by Ultrapar in the Share Exchange. In light of the accounting of each of the previous

distributions.</I> Distributions paid with respect to preferred shares will be includable in the income of a U.S. Holder as ordinary dividend income to the extent paid out of current or accumulated earnings and profits of Ultrapar, as determined for
U.S. federal income tax purposes. As discussed in the following two sentences, although the matter is not free from doubt, under current law, dividends paid to non-corporate U.S. Holders on preferred shares in taxable years beginning before
January&nbsp;1, 2011, will generally be taxable at a maximum rate of 15%, provided that certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied. Current law requires that to qualify for the lower 15% rate, dividends must be paid in respect of
stock that is readily tradable on a securities exchange in the United States. Notwithstanding the fact that our ADSs are currently listed on the New York Stock Exchange, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service could argue that dividends
paid in respect of our preferred shares do not qualify for the lower 15% rate. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of this lower tax rate in their particular circumstances. For purposes of these rules, the
amount of any distribution of property other than cash will be the fair market value of such property on the date of distribution. In addition, the taxable amount of any distribution will include the amount of Brazilian tax withheld on the amount
distributed, if any, and the amount of a distribution paid in reais will be measured by reference to the exchange rate for converting reais into U.S. dollars in effect on the date the distribution is received by the U.S. Holder. The U.S. Holder may
have foreign currency gain or loss if the amount of such dividend is not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of its receipt. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Dividends
paid by us generally will be treated as foreign source dividend income to U.S. Holders and will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction. Subject to certain limitations, Brazilian withholding tax, if any, paid in connection with any
distribution with respect to preferred shares may be claimed as a credit against the U.S. federal income tax liability of a U.S. Holder if such U.S. Holder elects for that year to credit all foreign income taxes; otherwise, such Brazilian
withholding tax may be taken as a deduction. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the availability and
utilization of the foreign tax credit. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Sale and other disposition of our preferred shares.</I> Gain or loss realized by a U.S. Holder

share and the U.S. Holder&#146;s tax basis in the preferred share. The gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder&#146;s holding period in the preferred share exceeds one year. If a Brazilian income tax is imposed on the
sale or disposition of preferred shares, and the U.S. Holder does not receive significant foreign source income from other sources, the U.S. Holder may not be able effectively to credit such Brazilian tax against its U.S. tax liability. U.S. Holders
should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal tax treatment of capital gains, which may be taxed at lower rates than ordinary income for individuals, and losses, the deductibility of which is subject to limitations. </FONT></P> <P

purposes and we do not expect to be a PFIC in the foreseeable future. However, since PFIC status depends upon the composition of a company&#146;s income and assets and the market value of its assets (including, among others, goodwill and less than
25 percent owned equity investments) from time to time, there can be no assurance that we will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

Holder&#146;s holding period for the preferred shares. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other exchange and to any year before we become a PFIC will be taxable as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable
year will be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for that year for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, and an interest charge will be imposed on the amount allocated to such taxable year. Further, any distribution in respect of the
preferred shares in excess of 125 percent of the average of the annual distributions on preferred shares received by the U.S. Holder during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder&#146;s holding period, whichever is shorter, will be subject to
taxation as described above. Certain elections may be available (including a mark-to-market election) to U.S. persons that may mitigate the adverse consequences resulting from PFIC status. </FONT></P> <P

Brazilian corporations may make payments to shareholders characterized as interest on capital as an alternative to making dividend distributions. The rate of interest may not be higher than the federal government&#146;s long-term interest rate, or
the TJLP, as determined by the Central Bank from time to time. The total amount distributed as interest on capital may not exceed the greater of (i)&nbsp;50% of net income (before taking the distribution and any deductions for income taxes into
account) for the year in respect of which the payment is made or (ii)&nbsp;50% of retained earnings for the year prior to the year in respect of which the payment is made. Payments of interest on capital are approved by the shareholders on the basis
of recommendations of the company&#146;s board of directors. Usually the board of directors approves the payment of interest on capital, subject to ratification by the general meeting. </FONT></P>  <P

Brazilian corporate tax purposes, within the limits referred above. Payments to non-Brazilian holders are subject to Brazilian withholding tax at the rate of 15%. If the recipient of the payment is domiciled in a tax haven jurisdiction (i.e., a
country that does not impose any income tax or that imposes tax at a rate of less than 20%), the rate will be 25%. The tax treatment of interest on capital at the recipient level varies according to such recipient&#146;s jurisdiction. You should
consult with your own tax advisor regarding the tax treatment applicable to you. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Amounts paid as interest on capital (net of

in Brazil have been historically high, but the monetary authorities have gathered success in diminishing it in a consistent manner during recent years. In 2003, there was a significant monetary tightening in which the basic rate was elevated to

acceleration and to heating in the trade area. Now, once the inflation has been controlled, the basic rate was reduced to 11.25%&nbsp;per year on September 2007. The main interest rate risk in Ultrapar arises from the possibility of incurring losses

However, appreciation of the <I>real</I> compared to the U.S. dollar has partially offset the increase in international LPG prices, decreasing the discrepancy between LPG prices in Brazil and in the international markets. We cannot guarantee that
this trend will continue. Any sharp increase in LPG prices charged to LPG distributors could have an impact on Ultragaz&#146;s results, should it not be able to pass on such cost increase to its customers. </FONT></P> <P

substitute in the bulk segment. This announcement created uncertainties related to the supply of natural gas in Brazil given that a significant portion of the natural gas consumed in Brazil is supplied by Bolivia. Uncertainties regarding natural gas
supply in Brazil have positively influenced the Brazilian LPG market such that bulk clients have begun to reconsider switching from using LPG to using natural gas as an energy source. A shortage in natural gas supply in Brazil could have a positive
influence on Brazilian LPG market demand, thus increasing the volume Ultragaz sells in the future, but we cannot guarantee that this trend will continue. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

following discussion is based on and should be read in conjunction with RIPI&#146;s unaudited interim financial information for the nine-month periods ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006 and the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 and
the audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, as well as their respective notes, included in this prospectus, and the sections &#147;Other Information&#148; and &#147;Selected Historical
Financial Data of RIPI&#148; and other financial information presented elsewhere in this prospectus.</I> </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Under the terms of the
Transaction Agreements executed by Ultrapar, Braskem and Petrobras, Braskem controls the petrochemical business of the former Ipiranga Group, represented by IQ, IPQ and IPQ&#146;s stake in Copesul. Thus RIPI is no longer consolidating the
Petrochemical Business under its Brazilian GAAP financial statements since Ultrapar acquired the shares held by the Key Shareholders. See &#147;The Transaction&#151;Description of the Transaction&#148; and &#147;Financial Information&#148;. </I>

RIPI&#146;s actual results may differ significantly from those discussed in these estimates and forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, without limitation, those described in &#147;Cautionary Statement Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements&#148; and &#147;Risk Factors.&#148; </I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>A. Operating Results </B></FONT></P>  <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Overview </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">RIPI operates an oil refinery located in the
Southern region of Brazil, with the capacity to process 17&nbsp;thousand barrels per day, which, in December 2006, corresponded to 0.4% of the total refining capacity in Brazil, according to ANP data. RIPI sells oil byproducts such as gasoline,
diesel, and naphtha, among others. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Petrobras is the main oil refining company in Brazil, with integrated operations in the oil and
oil-based products chain ranging from the exploration and production of oil and natural gas to distribution to end consumers. As of December 2006, Petrobras was responsible for 92.9% of the total refining capacity in Brazil. Thus, Petrobras supplies
a major portion of the Brazilian oil derivatives markets and has a large influence over these product prices in Brazil. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Until 2005, the
prices of certain oil byproducts, especially gasoline and diesel, were being periodically updated by Petrobras to minimize discrepancies between Brazilian and international prices. Petrobras has not updated these prices since September 2005.
International oil prices have been influenced by the increase in worldwide demand for oil and political instability in producing countries, which has led to an increase in average oil prices from US$44 per barrel in January 2005 to US$62 per barrel
in December 2006 and US$71 per barrel in June 2007, based on the price of Brent Crude Oil, one of the major worldwide classifications of oil.<B></B> These combined factors have caused an inconsistency between international oil prices and oil
byproduct prices in Brazil. We can not predict if or when gasoline and diesel prices in Brazil will be adjusted to international prices. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">RIPI&#146;s economic performance in oil refining in 2005 and 2006 reflected difficulties caused by the incompatibility between oil prices in the international market and certain oil byproduct prices in Brazil since RIPI&#146;s cost of raw
materials follows international prices, while its selling prices follow the Brazilian market prices. In order to minimize operating losses and as happened in most part of 2005, Refinaria Ipiranga&#146;s management interrupted the production from
June to October of 2006 but has been consistent since then. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As part of the actions to ensure continuity of operations of Refinaria de
Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A., RIPI&#146;s management intensified contacts and negotiations with the regulatory agencies of the industry, Brazilian Federal Government and the Rio Grande do Sul State Government. In July 2006, RIPI and the Rio Grande

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Government started to study the possibility of producing petrochemical naphtha in order to have an alternative that allowed the operational continuity of
RIPI and an increase in tax collection for Rio Grande do Sul State. Naphtha prices in Brazil are indexed to international prices, which are highly correlated to international oil prices. <B></B>Based on this, RIPI&#146;s management believes that by
selling petrochemical naphtha, it would be able to maintain reasonable operating margins. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On November&nbsp;1, 2006, Decree No. 44,714 was
published in the Official Gazette of Rio Grande do Sul State, permitting the use, as a deemed tax credit, of up to 8.5% of the ICMS (state VAT) levied on petrochemical naphtha produced in facilities located in the Southern region of Rio Grande do
Sul State and sold in the same state, according to the agreement signed in November&nbsp;27, 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Therefore, operations were resumed
according to the agreement signed with Rio Grande do Sul State Government. As a consequence of the initiatives taken, RIPI&#146;s economic performance in the first half of 2007 reflected the operational continuity of the oil refinery during the
period. In addition, despite the increase in oil prices in the first half of 2007 compared to 2006, RIPI&#146;s results improved due to higher volumes and prices of naphtha sold and the Brazilian currency appreciation against the U.S. dollar, which
partially offset the increase in oil prices. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Brazilian Economic Background </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Since RIPI&#146;s operating businesses are located substantially in Brazil, RIPI is significantly affected by Brazil&#146;s economic and social
conditions, including, but not limited to, gross domestic product, or GDP, interest rates, the domestic rate of inflation and exchange rate fluctuations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Gross domestic product </I></B></FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As government became more confident regarding inflation trends,
interest rates were lowered, and Brazilian GDP grew by 4.9% in 2004. However, in order to meet inflation targets, the Central Bank increased interest rates again in 2005, and GDP growth decreased to 2.3% in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2005.
During 2006, the Brazilian economy presented the same trend shown in the previous year and GDP grew by 2.9%. In the first half of 2007, Brazilian GDP grew by 4.8%, compared to the same period in 2006. This growth was mainly influenced by the
improved performance of the industrial sector as a result of lower interest rates, greater credit availability and expansion in Brazilian household income. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Inflation and currency fluctuations </I></B></FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">RIPI&#146;s cash operating expenses are substantially
in <I>reais</I> and tend to increase with inflation. In 2004, the <I>real</I> appreciated further against the U.S. dollar and IGP-M for the year was 12.4%. In 2005, 2006 and the first half of 2007 , the <I>real</I> continued to appreciate against
the U.S. dollar, which, together with the increased average interest rates, resulted in an inflation rate of 1.2%, 3.9% and 1.5%, respectively, as measured by the IGP-M. Future governmental actions, including actions to adjust the value of the
<I>real</I> in relation to the dollar, may increase inflation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The principal foreign exchange risk RIPI faces arises from certain U.S.
dollar-denominated debt. On June&nbsp;30, 2007 the exchange rate exposure amounted to US$51,748. Hence, RIPI is exposed to foreign exchange rate risks which could negatively impact RIPI&#146;s businesses, financial situation and operating results as
well as the capacity to service its debt. See Note 22 to RIPI&#146;s consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The table below shows the

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Interest rates in Brazil has been historically high, but the monetary authorities have gathered success in diminishing it in a consistent manner during recent years. In 2003, there was a significant monetary
tightening in which the basic rate was elevated to 26%&nbsp;per year, as a reply to the inflation bubble of the previous year. However, the interest rate was rapidly diminished yet during 2003 to 16%. Between 2004 and mid-2005, there was another
tightening, as a reply to a quick inflation acceleration and to heating in the trade area. Now, once the inflation has been controlled, the basic rate was reduced to 11.25%&nbsp;per year on September 2007. The main interest rate risk in RIPI arises
from the possibility of incurring losses due to interest rate fluctuations that increase interest expenses on loans and financing. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:6px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

the subsequent inability of RIPI&#146;s customers to make required payments. The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded in an amount RIPI consider sufficient to cover any probable losses on realization of its accounts receivable from its
customers, as well as other receivables, and is included in RIPI&#146;s results of operations as selling expenses; no adjustment is made to net sales and services revenue. In order to establish the allowance for doubtful accounts, RIPI&#146;s
management constantly evaluates the amount and characteristics of its accounts receivable. When significant delays occur and the likelihood of receiving these payments decreases, a provision is made. In case receivables in arrears are guaranteed or
there are reasonable grounds to believe they will be paid, no provision is made. If the financial conditions of RIPI&#146;s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be
required in future periods. However, because RIPI cannot predict with certainty the future financial stability of its customers, RIPI cannot guarantee that its reserves will continue to be adequate. Actual credit losses may be greater than the
allowance RIPI has established, which could have a significant impact on our selling expenses. See Note 22(b) to RIPI&#146;s financial statements for additional information about our credit risk. </FONT></P>  <P

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">reviews the deferred tax assets for recoverability and establishes a valuation allowance, as required, based on historical taxable income, projected future
taxable income, and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. In the event RIPI or one of its subsidiaries operates at a loss or is unable to generate sufficient future taxable income, or if there is a material change
in the actual effective tax rates or time period within which the underlying temporary differences become taxable or deductible, RIPI evaluates the need to establish a valuation allowance against all or a significant portion of its deferred tax
assets, resulting in an increase in its effective tax rate, thereby decreasing net income. If RIPI determines that it can realize a deferred tax in excess of its net recorded amount, it decreases the valuation allowance, thereby increasing net
income. Significant management judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance. The principal uncertainty relates to the likelihood of future taxable income from the subsidiary that generated the deferred tax asset. A change in
RIPI&#146;s projections of profitability could result in the need to record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, resulting in a negative impact of future results. See Note 11(a)&nbsp;to RIPI&#146;s unaudited interim consolidated
financial statements for additional information on deferred taxes. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Contingent liabilities </I></B></FONT></P>  <P

RIPI&#146;s financial statements. We believe that the extent to which these contingencies are recognized in RIPI&#146;s financial statements is adequate. It is RIPI&#146;s policy to record accrued liabilities in respect of contingencies that can be
reasonably estimated and could have a material adverse impact on the results of RIPI&#146;s operations or its financial condition and that are probable to occur in the opinion of its management, based on information available to RIPI including
information obtained from its legal advisors. Future results of operations for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially affected by changes in RIPI&#146;s assumptions, by the effectiveness of its strategies relating to these
proceedings, by future developments in each matter being discussed or by changes in approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT

relating to RIPI&#146;s pension plan and certain insurance benefits for RIPI&#146;s employees and their dependents involves the use of actuarial assumptions. These include estimates of future mortality, withdrawal, changes in compensation and the
discount rate used to reflect the time value of money as well as the rate of return on plan assets. These assumptions are reviewed at least annually and may differ materially from actual results due to changing market and economic conditions,
regulatory events, judicial ruling, higher or lower withdrawal rates or longer or shorter life spans of participants. In case actual results differ from the assumptions adopted, there may be a significant impact on the amount of pension liability

95% to R$611.5 million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 from R$313.5 million for the same period of 2006. This increase in net sales comes from higher sales volume of more than 85% (as the refinery was not fully operating in the
nine months of 2006), following the agreement with the Rio Grande do Sul tax authorities in November 2006, which allowed for more stability of operating margins. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

financial expense by 206% to R$7.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from R$2.3 million for the same period of 2006. This increase of R$4.9&nbsp;million was primarily driven by an increase in net debt position, mainly derived from
a new debt raised to finance RIPI&#146;s working capital. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Non-operating income (expense), net</I>. The refining business operated by
RIPI recorded a non-operating gain of R$0.4 million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, compared to zero for the same period of 2006, primarily due to the sale of fixed assets in 2007. </FONT></P> <P

million, compared to a gain of R$131.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This increase is mainly due to the fact that the results of the chemicals and petrochemicals businesses operated by the affiliate IQ and its subsidiaries
presented an improvement in their operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Income and social contribution taxes</I>. The refining business operated by RIPI
registered an income and social contribution tax expense of zero for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, compared to an expense of R$1.0 million for the same period of 2006, primarily due to the benefit of the payment of interest on
capital in 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Profit sharing</I>. Profit sharing for the refining business operated by RIPI remained constant at zero for the nine

period of 2006. This increase in net sales is derived from a higher sales volume of naphtha and diesel of more than 21% (as the refinery was not fully operating in the first half of 2006), following the agreement with the Rio Grande do Sul tax
authorities in November 2006, which allowed the operational continuity of RIPI in 2007. <B></B> </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Cost of sales and services.</I> Cost of
sales and services for the period ended June 30, 2007 decreased by 32%, to R$1,140.4 million from R$1,670.8 million in the semester ended June 30, 2006. This was due to the end of the consolidation of the chemical and petrochemical businesses from
the acquisition onwards. The refining business operated by RIPI increased 40% to R$392.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from R$279.3 million for the same period of 2006, in line with sales growth. </FONT></P> <P

acquisition onwards. The refining business operated by RIPI increased 23% in the comparison between semesters, to R$17.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from R$14.3 million in the same period of 2006. This increase reflects (i) higher
freight expenses due to an increase in volume sold and (ii) an increase in provisions for labor contingencies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Other operating
income.</I> Other operating income for the period ended June 30, 2007 presented an expense of R$6.2 million compared to a gain of R$10.5 million in the semester ended June 30, 2006. This was mainly due to the increase in provisions for contingencies
recorded by IPQ for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 amounting to R$3.2 million, and to the reversal of the provision for contingencies recorded by Copesul which positively impacted June 30, 2006 figures in an amount of R$6.6 million. The
refining business operated by RIPI had no other operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to R$0.5 million income for the same period of 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

refining business operated by RIPI decreased its net financial expense by 52% to R$1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from R$2.0 million for the same period of 2006. This improvement was primarily driven by a decrease in indebtedness

for the six-months ended June 30, 2007, compared to zero for the same period of 2006, primarily due to the sale of fixed assets in 2007. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

ended June 30, 2007 amounted to a gain of R$69.1 million, compared to a gain of R$10.3 million for the semester ended June 30, 2006. This is mainly due to the fact that the results of the chemicals and petrochemicals businesses operated by the
affiliate IQ and its subsidiaries began being accounted for through the equity method in April 2007, in light of the change of control brought about by the Transaction. Until the end of the first quarter of 2007, IQ and its subsidiaries were

2006. This increase is mainly related to an improvement in Copesul&#146;s gross profit due to a higher level of exports sales. The refining business operated by RIPI recorded an income and social contribution tax expense of zero in the six months
ended June 30, 2007, compared to an expense of R$2.7 million in the same period of 2006, primarily due to the benefit of the payment of interest on capital in 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

alternative that allowed both the operational continuity of Refinaria Ipiranga and an increase in tax collection for Rio Grande do Sul State. This agreement was signed in November, 2006. Naphtha prices in Brazil are referenced to international
prices, which are highly correlated to international oil prices. Should petrochemical naphtha prices not follow international oil price rises in the future, the Company believes this could have a negative impact on RIPI&#146;s profitability.

</B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Since all of DPPI&#146;s operating businesses are located in Brazil, it is significantly affected by Brazil&#146;s economic and social
conditions, including, but not limited to, gross domestic product, or GDP, Brazilian population income, credit availability, interest rates, the domestic rate of inflation and exchange rate fluctuations. </FONT></P> <P

government became more confident regarding inflation trends, interest rates were lowered, and Brazilian GDP grew by 4.9% in 2004. However, in order to meet inflation targets, the Central Bank increased interest rates again in 2005, and GDP growth
decreased to 2.3% in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2005. During 2006, the Brazilian economy presented the same trend shown in the previous year and GDP grew by 2.9%. DPPI&#146;s operations, especially sales of fuels, are significantly impacted by
Brazilian GDP growth. In addition, the level of Brazilian population income, which often bears a relation to GDP performance, also affects the sales of fuels. In the first half of 2007, Brazilian GDP grew by 4.8%, compared to the same period in
2006. This growth was mainly influenced by the improved performance of the industrial sector as a result of lower interest rates, greater credit availability and increases in average household income in Brazil. </FONT></P>  <P

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">DPPI&#146;s cash operating expenses are substantially in <I>reais</I> and tend to fluctuate with inflation. In 2004, the <I>real</I> appreciated against the U.S. dollar and the IGP-M for the year was 12.4%. In 2005,
2006 and the first half of 2007 the <I>real</I> continued to appreciate against the U.S. dollar, which, together with the increased average interest rates, resulted in an inflation rates of 1.2%, 3.9% and 1.5% respectively, as measured by the IGP-M.
Future governmental actions, including actions to adjust the value of the <I>real</I> in relation to the U.S. dollar, may increase inflation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">The principal foreign exchange risk DPPI faces arises from certain U.S. dollar-denominated debt. On June&nbsp;30, 2007, the exchange rate exposure amounted to US$62.5 million. Hence, DPPI&#146;s exposed to foreign exchange rate risks which
could negatively impact its businesses, financial situation and operating results as well as its capacity to service its debt. See Note 21 to DPPI&#146;s consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P>  <P

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Interest rate in Brazil has been historically high, but the monetary authorities have gathered success in diminishing it in a consistent manner during
recent years. In 2003, there was a significant monetary tightening in which the basic rate was elevated to 26%&nbsp;per year, as a reply to the inflation bubble of the previous year. However, the interest rate was rapidly diminished yet during 2003
to 16%. Between 2004 and mid-2005, there was another tightening, as a reply to a quick inflation acceleration and to heating in the trade area. Now, once the inflation has been controlled, the basic rate was reduced to 11.25%&nbsp;per year in
September 2007. The unemployment rate in Brazil dropped from a 12% level to 10% in the past two years. Despite the relatively high unemployment rate, the average worker income has been constantly increasing since the end of 2003. The greater
availability of credit derived from the lower interest rate and the improvement in Brazilian population income largely explain the increase in internal demand, including the record levels of vehicle sales in the first half of 2007, amounting to
1,082&nbsp;million vehicles registered, including cars, trucks and buses. This is a 25.7% increase compared to the first half of 2006, according to figures published by the National Vehicle Registry (Renavam). This growth has been having a positive
influence on demand for fuels. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The main interest rate risk DPPI faces derives from interest rate fluctuations that might increase its
interest expenses on loans and financing. DPPI continuously monitors interest rates in the market in order to evaluate the need for hedging against the volatility of these rates. </FONT></P> <P

The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded in an amount DPPI consider sufficient to cover any probable losses on realization of its accounts receivable from its customers, as well as other receivables, and is included as selling expenses; no
adjustment is made to net sales and services revenue. In order to establish the allowance for doubtful accounts, DPPI&#146;s management constantly evaluates the amount and characteristics of its accounts receivable. When significant delays occur and
the likelihood of receiving these payments decreases, a provision is made. In case receivables in arrears are guaranteed or there are reasonable grounds to believe they will be paid, no provision is made. If the financial conditions of DPPI&#146;s
customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required in future periods. However, because DPPI cannot predict with certainty the future financial stability of its
customers, it cannot guarantee that its reserves will continue to be adequate. Actual credit losses may be greater than the allowance we have established, which could have a significant impact on its selling expenses. See Note 21(b) to DPPI&#146;s
consolidated financial statements for additional information about DPPI&#146;s credit risk. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Deferred Taxes </I></B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">DPPI recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities which do not expire, arising from tax loss carry forwards, temporary add-backs, revaluation of
property, plant and equipment and other procedures. DPPI periodically review the deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation allowance, as required, based on historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, and the
expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. In the event DPPI or one of its subsidiaries operates at a loss or is unable to generate sufficient future taxable income, or if there is a material change in the actual effective
tax rates or time period within which the underlying temporary differences become taxable or deductible, DPPI evaluate the need to establish a valuation allowance against all or a significant portion of its deferred tax assets, resulting in an
increase in its effective tax rate, thereby decreasing net income. If DPPI determines that it can realize a deferred tax in excess of its net recorded amount, DPPI decreases the valuation allowance, thereby increasing net income. Significant
management judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance. The principal uncertainty relates to the likelihood of future taxable income from the subsidiary that generated the deferred tax asset. A change in DPPI&#146;s projections of
profitability could result in the need to record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, resulting in a negative impact of future results. See Note 10(a)&nbsp;to DPPI&#146;s consolidated financial statements for additional information on
deferred taxes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Contingent liabilities </I></B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">DPPI is currently involved in certain legal and administrative proceedings that arise from its normal course of business as described in Note 16 to DPPI&#146;s consolidated financial statements. DPPI believes that the
extent to which these contingencies are recognized in DPPI&#146;s consolidated financial statements is adequate. It is DPPI&#146;s policy to record accrued liabilities in regard to contingencies that can be reasonably estimated and could have a
material adverse impact on the result of its operations or its financial condition and that are probable to occur in the opinion of DPPI&#146;s management, based on information available to it, including information obtained from its legal advisors.
Future results of operations for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially affected by changes in DPPI&#146;s assumptions, by the effectiveness of its strategies relating to these proceedings, by future developments in each
matter being discussed or by changes in approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Pension and

Brasileiro de Geografia e Estat&iacute;stica</I> (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics), have shown a decrease in the unemployment levels from 10% in September 2006 to 9% in the September 2007. IBGE indicators have also shown an
improvement in the Brazilian economy, as GDP increased by 5% in the first half of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. This, together with greater credit availability, as shown by the 25% increase in the total stock of credit in the Brazilian
financial system in the eight-month period ended August, 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006, according to Brazilian Central Bank data, has resulted in record levels of vehicle sales in the first half of 2007 (growth of 25.7% in the number
of new vehicles registered as compared to 2006) and consequently an increased demand for fuel. Despite record car sales, however, Brazil&#146;s current fleet is small compared to other Latin American countries, with 8 inhabitants per vehicle,
whereas Argentina and Mexico have 5 inhabitants per vehicle, according to ANFAVEA - <I>Associa&ccedil;&atilde;o Nacional dos Fabricantes Ve&iacute;culos Automotores</I> (Brazilian Association of Vehicle Producers). </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Based on the current expansion in the economy and credit availability, together with the low ratio of inhabitants per vehicle, Ultrapar believes the
outlook for increased Brazilian fuel consumption is positive for the coming years. The increase in fuel consumption could have a positive effect on the future volume sold by the company. </FONT></P> <P

prices of certain oil byproducts, especially gasoline and diesel, were being periodically updated by Petrobras to reduce the differences between prices in Brazil and prices prevailing in the international markets. However, since September 2005,
these prices have not been updated by Petrobras. On the other hand, oil prices in the international markets have been influenced by the increase in worldwide demand for oil and the instability in producing countries, which led to an increase of the
average oil prices from US$44 per barrel in January 2005 to US$62 per barrel in December 2006 and US$71 per barrel in June 2007, based on the price for Brent Crude Oil, one of the major worldwide classifications of oil. This combination of factors
caused an incompatibility between oil prices in the international markets and oil byproducts prices in Brazil. We can not predict if and when gasoline and diesel prices will be adjusted to prices in the international markets. The adjustment in the
gasoline and diesel prices to international prices could have an impact on the company&#146;s profitability in the future. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>E. Tabular Disclosure

</B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Since all of CBPI&#146;s operating businesses are located in Brazil, we are significantly affected by Brazil&#146;s economic and social
conditions, including, but not limited to, gross domestic product, or GDP, Brazilian population income, credit availability, interest rates, the domestic rate of inflation and exchange rate fluctuations. </FONT></P> <P

the government became more confident regarding inflation trends, interest rates were lowered, and Brazilian GDP grew by 4.9% in 2004. However, in order to meet inflation targets, the Central Bank increased interest rates again in 2005, and GDP
growth decreased to 2.3% in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2005. During 2006, the Brazilian economy presented the same trend shown in the previous year and GDP grew by 2.9%. In the first half of 2007, Brazilian GDP grew by 4.8%, compared to the
same period in 2006. This growth was mainly influenced by the improved performance of the industrial sector as a result of lower interest rates, greater credit availability and expansion in the Brazilian population income. CBPI&#146;s operations,
especially sales of fuels, are significantly impacted by Brazilian GDP growth. In addition, the level of Brazilian population income, which often bears a relation to GDP performance, also affect the sales of fuels. </FONT></P>  <P

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">CBPI&#146;s cash operating expenses are substantially in <I>reais</I> and tend to fluctuate with inflation. In 2004, the <I>real</I> appreciated against the U.S. dollar and the IGP-M for the year was 12.4%. In 2005,
2006 and the first half of 2007, the <I>real</I> continued to appreciate against the U.S. dollar, which, together with increased average interest rates, resulted in inflation rates of 1.2%, 3.9% and 1.5%, respectively, as measured by the IGP-M.
Future governmental actions, including adjustments to the value of the <I>real</I> in relation to the U.S. dollar, may increase inflation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">The principal foreign exchange risk CBPI faces arises from certain U.S. dollar-denominated debt. On June&nbsp;30, 2007, exchange rate exposure totaled US$64.1&nbsp;million. Hence, CBPI is exposed to foreign exchange rate risks which could
negatively impact its businesses, financial situation and operating results, as well as its capacity to service its debt. See Note 21 to CBPI&#146;s consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P>  <P

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Interest rates in Brazil have been historically high, but monetary authorities there have had success in controlling them in a consistent manner during
recent years. In 2003, there was a significant monetary tightening in which the basic rate was increased to 26%&nbsp;per year, as a response to the inflation bubble of the previous year. However, the rate dropped further during 2003 to 16%. Between
2004 and mid-2005, there was another tightening of rates, as a reply to a quick acceleration of inflation. Now, as inflation has been controlled, the basic rate was reduced to 11.25%&nbsp;per year in September 2007. The unemployment rate in Brazil
dropped from 12% to 10% in the past two years. Despite the relatively high unemployment rate, the average worker&#146;s income has been constantly increasing since the end of 2003. The greater availability of credit due to lower interest rates and
improvement in Brazilian population income largely explain the increase in internal demand, including the record levels of vehicle sales in the first half of 2007, amounting to 1.082&nbsp;million vehicles registered, including cars, trucks and
buses. This is a 25.7% increase compared to the first half of 2006, according to figures published by the National Vehicle Registry (Renavam). This growth has been having a positive influence on demand for fuels. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The main interest rate risk CBPI faces derives from interest rate fluctuations that might increase its interest expenses on loans and financing. CBPI
continuously monitors interest rates in the market in order to evaluate the need for hedging against the volatility of these rates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities which do not expire, arising from tax loss carry-forwards, temporary add-backs, revaluation of property, plant and equipment and other procedures. CBPI periodically reviews the deferred tax assets for
recoverability and establishes a valuation allowance, as required, based on historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. In the event CBPI or one of its
subsidiaries operates at a loss or is unable to generate sufficient future taxable income, or if there is a material change in the actual effective tax rates or time period within which the underlying temporary differences become taxable or
deductible, CBPI evaluates the need to establish a valuation allowance against all or a significant portion of its deferred tax assets, resulting in an increase in its effective tax rate, thereby decreasing net income. If CBPI determines that it can
realize a deferred tax in excess of its net recorded amount, CBPI decreases the valuation allowance, thereby increasing net income. Significant management judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance. The principal uncertainty relates
to the likelihood of future taxable income from the subsidiary that generated the deferred tax asset. A change in CBPI&#146;s projections of profitability could result in the need to record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets,
resulting in a negative impact on future results. See Note 10(a)&nbsp;to CBPI&#146;s consolidated financial statements for additional information on taxes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT

proceedings that arise from its normal course of business as described in Note 16 to CBPI&#146;s consolidated financial statements. CBPI believes that the extent to which these contingencies are recognized in CBPI&#146;s consolidated financial
statements is adequate. It is CBPI&#146;s policy to record accrued liabilities in regard to contingencies that can be reasonably estimated and could have a material adverse impact on the results of CBPI&#146;s operations or its financial condition
and that are probable to occur in the opinion of its management, based on information available to CBPI, including information obtained from its legal advisors. Future results of operations for any particular quarterly or annual period could be
materially affected by changes in CBPI&#146;s assumptions, by the effectiveness of CBPI&#146;s strategies relating to these proceedings, by future developments in each matter being discussed or by changes in approach, such as a change in settlement

assets. These assumptions are reviewed at least annually and may differ materially from actual results due to changing market and economic conditions, regulatory events, judicial rulings, higher or lower withdrawal rates or longer or shorter life
spans of participants. In case actual results differ from the assumptions adopted, there may be a significant impact on the amount of pension liability and post-retirement health care and expenses CBPI records. See Note 18 to CBPI&#146;s

increased by 4% to R$11,128.1 million from R$10,677.5 million for the semester ended June&nbsp;30, 2006. The increase in net sales was driven by a 5% growth in sales volume, particularly in ethanol and diesel volumes. </FONT></P> <P

increased by 2% to R$397.0 million for the semester ended June&nbsp;30, 2007 from R$388.6 million for the semester ended June&nbsp;30, 2006. This increase reflects (i)&nbsp;non-recurring expenses as a result of laying off the corporate staff that

R$66.1&nbsp;million for the semester ended June&nbsp;30, 2007, a 46% increase compared to the semester ended June&nbsp;30, 2006. The increase is mainly due to an increase in the results of operation in the affiliate IQ. </FONT></P> <P

levels of vehicle sales in the first half of 2007 (growth of 25.7% in the number of new vehicles registered as compared to 2006) and consequently an increased demand for fuel. Despite record car sales, however, Brazil&#146;s current fleet is small
compared to other Latin American countries, with 8 inhabitants per vehicle, whereas Argentina and Mexico have 5 inhabitants per vehicle, according to ANFAVEA - <I>Associa&ccedil;&atilde;o Nacional dos Fabricantes Ve&iacute;culos Automotores</I>
(Brazilian Association of Vehicle Producers). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Based on the current expansion in the economy and credit availability, together with the low
ratio of inhabitants per vehicle, Ultrapar believes the outlook for increased Brazilian fuel consumption is positive for the coming years. The increase in fuel consumption could have a positive effect on the future volume sold by the company.

SIZE="2">Until 2005, the prices of certain oil byproducts, especially gasoline and diesel, were being periodically updated by Petrobras to reduce the differences between prices in Brazil and prices prevailing in the international markets. However,
since September 2005, these prices have not been updated by Petrobras. On the other hand, oil prices in the international markets have been influenced by the increase in worldwide demand for oil and the instability in producing countries, which led
to an increase of the average oil prices from US$44 per barrel in January 2005 to US$62 per barrel in December 2006 and US$71 per barrel in June 2007, based on the price of Brent Crude Oil, one of the major worldwide classifications of oil. This
combination of factors caused an incompatibility between oil prices in the international markets and oil byproducts prices in Brazil. We can not predict if and when gasoline and diesel prices will be adjusted to prices in the international markets.
The adjustment in the gasoline and diesel prices to international prices could have an impact on the company&#146;s profitability in the future. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>F.

notes issued by the Austrian Government. As of June&nbsp;30, 2007, funds in the amount of R$ 248.6 (R$ 553.1 as of December&nbsp;31, 2006), raised through notes issued by the subsidiary of LPG International Inc. were invested in certificates of
deposit (Dual Currency Deposits) denominated in U.S. dollars issued by foreign banks of good standing. The decrease in the Dual Currency Deposits balance was due to their maturity in June 2007. Dual Currency Deposits are investments whose yield can
be in US dollars or Brazilian reais, depending on the U.S. dollar rate as of the maturity date. If the U.S. dollar rate is lower than the strike rate on the maturity date, the yield of this operation will be in US dollars plus interest of
7.5%&nbsp;per year; otherwise, it will be in Brazilian reais plus average interest of 16.2%&nbsp;per year. The subsidiary records the investment at the lower of the two alternative yields, which until June&nbsp;30, 2007 was represented by the US
dollar. Up to June&nbsp;30, 2007 the exchange rate always remained below the strike rate. Long-term investments are mainly represented by a debt security of an European corporation denominated in U.S. dollars, bearing interest of six-month LIBOR
plus interest of 3.25%&nbsp;per annum and maturing on September&nbsp;27, 2009. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In April 2006, subsidiary Oxiteno Overseas Corp., owner of
notes in the amount of US$ 60&nbsp;million issued by Companhia Ultragaz S.A. in the international market in 1997 (Original Notes), sold these Original Notes to a foreign financial institution. Concurrently, subsidiary Oxiteno Overseas Corp. acquired
from this financial institution a credit linked note backed by the Original Notes. This transaction provides a financial gain for the Company corresponding to the difference between the interest rate paid for the credit linked note and the Original
Notes, as mentioned in Note 14.b). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

credits of the Cama&ccedil;ari (Bahia State) plant of the subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste S.A. Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio, which was affected by measures taken by Bahia State Authorities, that made it difficult to utilize credits for import
payment or to transfer them to third parties. The total balance of credits from the Cama&ccedil;ari plant corresponds to R$ 66.3 as of June&nbsp;30, 2007 (R$ 50.2 as of December&nbsp;31, 2006) of which R$ 27.6 have already been reviewed by the tax
authorities and are awaiting release by the state finance department of Bahia for commercialization. In addition to these credits, the subsidiary&#146;s management is working on a series of measures for realization of the plant&#146;s ICMS balance.
The allowance for loss of the plant&#146;s credits was recognized on the basis of the maximum discount expected on their commercialization. The PIS and COFINS credits are being utilized to offset other federal taxes, mainly income and social
contribution taxes on income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prepaid expenses </B></FONT></P> <P

Petrochemical Industry Labor Union, of which the employees of Oxiteno Nordeste S.A. Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio are members, filed a lawsuit against the subsidiary in 1990, demanding compliance with the adjustments established in collective
labor agreement, in lieu of the salary policies effectively followed. At the same time, the employers&#146; association proposed a collective bargaining for the interpretation and clarification of the fourth clause of the agreement. Based on the
opinion of its legal counsel, who analyzed the last decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) on the collective bargaining, as well as the status of the individual lawsuit of the subsidiary, management believes that an accrual for a potential loss
is not necessary as of June&nbsp;30, 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The subsidiaries Companhia Ultragaz S.A. and SPG&aacute;s Distribuidora de G&aacute;s Ltda. are
parties to an administrative proceeding at the SDE (Economic Law Department), linked to CADE (Administrative Council for Economic Defense), under the allegation of anticompetitive practice in certain municipalities of the State of Minas Gerais in
2001. In September 2005, the SDE issued a technical notice recommending to CADE a ruling against the companies involved in this proceeding. In their defense, the subsidiaries&#146; arguments, among others, are that: (i)&nbsp;under the terms of the
notice issued by the Company&#146;s chief executive officer on July&nbsp;4, 2000, the subsidiaries&#146; employees were forbidden to discuss with third parties matters related to prices; and (ii)&nbsp;no consistent proof was attached to the
proceeding&#146;s records. In view of the arguments presented, the fact that the technical notice has no binding effect on CADE&#146;s decision, and their legal counsel&#146;s opinion, the subsidiaries did not record a provision for this issue.
Should CADE&#146;s decision be unfavorable, the subsidiaries could still discuss the issue at the judicial level. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The subsidiary Companhia
Ultragaz S.A. is a defendant in lawsuits relating to damages caused by an explosion in 1996 in a shopping mall in the city of Osasco, State of S&atilde;o Paulo. Such lawsuits involve: (i)&nbsp;individual suits filed by victims of the explosion
claiming damages from Ultragaz for the loss of economic benefit and for pain and suffering, (ii)&nbsp;reimbursement of expenses from management of the shopping mall and its insurance company, and (iii)&nbsp;a class action lawsuit seeking
indemnification for material damages and pain and suffering for all the victims injured and deceased. The subsidiary believes that it has presented evidence that defective gas pipes in the shopping mall caused the accident and that Ultragaz&#146;s
on-site LPG storage facilities did not contribute to the explosion. Of the 58 lawsuits judged so far, a favorable judgment was obtained for 57, and out of these 19 have already been dismissed; only 1 had an unfavorable decision, which is still
subject to appeal, and whose amount, should the decision be upheld, is R$ 0.017. Three lawsuits have not yet been judged. The subsidiary has insurance coverage for these lawsuits, and the uninsured contingent amount is R$ 23.6 as of June&nbsp;30,
2007. The Company has not recorded any provision for this amount, since it believes the probability of loss is remote. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company and its
subsidiaries obtained injunctions to pay PIS and COFINS (taxes on revenues) without the changes introduced by Law No.&nbsp;9718/98 in its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of these taxes on sources of income other than
revenues. Recently the STF has decided the matter favorable to the taxpayer. Although it is a precedent, the effect of this decision does not automatically apply to all the companies, since they have to await judgment of their own lawsuit. In the
first semester of 2007 final decisions were rendered for the Company and its subsidiaries which reversed the accrual previously recorded, in the amount of R$ 12.8 (in the first semester of 2006&#151;R$ 17.2 of accrual reversal and R$ 26.2 of
recovery of amounts paid in previous periods), net of attorney&#146;s fees, as financial income in the statement of income for the period. The Company has other subsidiaries whose lawsuits have not yet been judged in the amount of R$ 28.9, net of
attorney&#146;s fees. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

Governador Eraldo Gueiros, in connection with their port facilities in Aratu and Suape, respectively. Such contracts establish minimum cargo movement of 1,000,000 tons per year for Aratu, effective through 2022, and 250,000 tons per year for Suape,
effective through 2027. If annual movement is less than the established minimum, the subsidiary is required to pay the difference between the actual movement and the minimum contractual movement using the port rates in effect at the date of payment.
As of June&nbsp;30, 2007, such rates were R$ 4.59 and R$ 3.97&nbsp;per ton for Aratu and Suape, respectively. The subsidiary has met the minimum cargo movement limits since inception of the contracts. At June&nbsp;30, 2007, future minimum lease
payments under these operating leases are: R$ 5.6 in 2007, R$ 5.6 in 2008, R$ 5.6 in 2009, R$ 5.6 in 2010, R$ 5.6 in 2011 and thereafter R$ 63.4. A substantial part of these leases are paid directly to the port authorities by Tequimar&#146;s
customers. The part of such lease expenses paid by Tequimar amounted to R$ 0.8 as of June&nbsp;30, 2007 and R$ 1.1 as of June&nbsp;30, 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

those prescribed by Brazilian corporate law and specific standards established by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM). Note&nbsp;3 to the consolidated interim financial statements summarizes the accounting policies adopted by the Company.
Accounting policies, which differ significantly from U.S.&nbsp;GAAP, are summarized below. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>a) Inflation accounting </B></FONT></P> <P

Under U.S. GAAP, Brazil was considered to be a highly inflationary economy until July&nbsp;1, 1997, and the effect of inflation was recognized until December&nbsp;31, 1997. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In determining amounts under U.S. GAAP, the effects of inflation for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 1996 and 1997 were determined using the
&#147;&Iacute;ndice Geral de Pre&ccedil;os -Disponibilidade Interna&#151;IGP-DI&#148; index, which is widely-accepted and respected index published monthly by the Funda&ccedil;&atilde;o Get&uacute;lio Vargas. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Through December&nbsp;31, 1995, the Company used indexes established by the government to restate balances and transactions for purposes of its corporate

of its availability, for U.S. GAAP purposes the Company adopted the IGP-DI for restatement of its financial statements through December&nbsp;31, 1995, replacing the government mandated index. This procedure is consistent with the recommendation by
the Brazilian Task Force (organized under the AICPA International Practices Task Force to review the issue of the appropriate index to be used for preparing price-level adjusted financial statements of Brazilian companies filing with the SEC) of
using the IGP-M or IGP-DI for such purposes. Thus, all nonmonetary assets and liabilities were restated using the IGP-DI since the inception of the Company, through December&nbsp;31, 1997. </FONT></P> <P

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under IBRACON NPC 26 the Company has accounted for the plan administered by FFMB (and to which several Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies contribute) by
recognizing a percentage attributed to the Company of the funded status and of the cost of the plan. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under U.S. GAAP, considering that the
financial information of the Company does not consolidate all the sponsors of the FFMB and such financial information does not represent the financial statements of the parent company of the Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies, the Company has
accounted for its participation in the pension plan administered by FFMB as if it were a multi-employer plan. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As a result, the
reconciliation presents: (a)&nbsp;the reversal of the pension plan asset/liability recognized for Brazilian GAAP as of each reporting date and the reversal of the related pension cost, and (b)&nbsp;the recognition as expense of the contribution due
to the plan over the corresponding period. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>t.2) Other post-retirement benefits </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As explained in Note 18, the accompanying financial statements account for other post-retirement benefits following IBRACON NPC 26. Other post-retirement
benefits are unfunded and are the sole responsibility of each Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga company. Under IBRACON NPC 26 actuarial gains and losses are deferred and recognized in income over the estimated remaining service period of the employees to the
extent that those actuarial gains and losses exceed 10% of the higher of the plan assets and the projected benefit obligation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under U.S.
GAAP such benefits are accounted for following SFAS No.&nbsp;106 &#147;Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions&#148; and, as from December&nbsp;31, 2006, following SFAS 158 &#147;Employers&#146; Accounting for Defined
Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans&#151;an amendment of FASB Statements No.&nbsp;87, 88, 106 and 132(R)&#148;. Under SFAS 158 the funded status of the other postretirement benefits must be recognized as a liability with an offsetting
amount in accumulated other comprehensive income. As required by SFAS 158, provisions of SFAS 158 were applied effective on December&nbsp;31, 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Although projected benefit obligations are the same under Brazilian GAAP and U.S. GAAP, differences arise in the amounts recorded in the financial statements as result of: (i)&nbsp;that, for periods before implementation of SFAS 158, the
amount of unrealized gains and losses for U.S. GAAP and BR GAAP differ as result of the fact that for BR GAAP purposes other post-retirement benefits are being accounted for under NPA 26 as from January&nbsp;1, 2001 and after implementation of SFAS
158 unrealized gains and losses for U.S. GAAP are recognized against other comprehensive income, and (ii)&nbsp;the recognition as from December&nbsp;31, 2006, as a liability for U.S. GAAP purposes of the funded status against accumulated other
comprehensive income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The projected benefit obligation as of June&nbsp;30, 2007 has been determined based on the employees that will be
transferred to Company as a result of the fuel and lubricant business acquired. The fair value of the plan assets is determined based on the proportion of the contribution made by each Ipiranga&#146;s group companies, as the plan is a multi-employer
benefit plan. Should changes occur to the plan status, these will be adjusted to goodwill. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>u) Accounting for refunds </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company and its subsidiary CBPI offer to certain of their customers refunds in cash if they meet a specified cumulative volume of sales over a
specified period of time. Under Brazilian GAAP, the refund is recognized as an expense when the cumulative volume of sales has been met. Such refunds are offered to a reduced group of customers and have begun to be offered recently. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under U.S. GAAP, EITF 01-9, &#147;Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of the Vendor&#146;s
Products)&#148;, a Company should recognize a liability based on a systematic and rational allocation of the cost of honoring the commitment in each of the underlying transactions that result in progress toward earning the refund. Considering the
reduced customers to which the refund is offered and the reduced historical experience, the Company believes that it cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate amount that will be earned by customers. As a result, under U.S. GAAP a liability is
recognized for the maximum potential amount of the refund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

customers of specialty chemicals comprise a variety of industrial and commercial enterprises. No single customer or group accounts for more than 10% of total revenue. Management believes that by distributing its products to a variety of markets it
is able to protect itself, to a certain extent, from the effects of negative trends in any particular market. Oxiteno acts as a member of a Credit Committee of the Brazilian chemical manufacturers which meets monthly to review the financial position
of clients showing past-due accounts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Historically, the Company has not experienced significant losses on trade receivables. </FONT></P>

accounted for approximately 77% and 72% of cost of sales and services, respectively. The Company is dependent on the ability of its suppliers to provide products on a timely basis and on favorable pricing terms. The loss of certain principal

ratified in up to 120 days, that expired on October&nbsp;31, 2007. Thus the subsidiary will record in October of 2007 the reduction value in its results, with retroactive effect to January&nbsp;1, 2007, in the amount of R$ 15.4. </FONT></P> <P

the Cama&ccedil;ari (Bahia State) plant of the subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste S.A Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio, due to measures taken by the Bahia State, which made it difficult to utilize credits for import payment or to transfer them to third
parties. The total balance of credits from this plant corresponds to R$ 76,036 as of September&nbsp;30, 2007 (R$ 66,334 as of June&nbsp;30, 2007), of which R$ 37,337 have already been reviewed by the tax authorities and are awaiting release by the
state finance department of Bahia for commercialization. In addition to these credits, the subsidiary&#146;s management is working on a series of additional measures for consumption of the plant&#146;s ICMS balance. The allowance for loss of the
plant&#146;s credits was recognized on the basis of the maximum discount expected on their commercialization. The PIS and COFINS credits are being utilized to offset other federal taxes, mainly income and social contribution taxes on income.

seeking a 75% income tax reduction until 2016, which was granted on May&nbsp;25, 2007. On July&nbsp;3, 2007, the benefit analysis report issued by ADENE was directed to the Federal Revenue Service to be ratified in up to 120 days that expired on

against the subsidiary in 1990, demanding compliance with the adjustments established in a collective labor agreement, in lieu of the salary policies effectively followed. At the same time, the employers&#146; association proposed a collective
bargaining for the interpretation and clarification of the fourth clause of the agreement. Based on the opinion of its legal counsel, who analyzed the last decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) on the collective bargaining, as well as the
status of the individual lawsuit of the subsidiary, management believes that a reserve is not necessary as of September&nbsp;30, 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The
subsidiaries Companhia Ultragaz S.A. and SPG&aacute;s Distribuidora de G&aacute;s Ltda. are parties to an administrative proceeding at CADE (Administrative Council for Economic Defense), under the allegation of anticompetitive practice in
municipalities of a region of the State of Minas Gerais in 2001. In September 2005, the SDE (Economic Law Department) issued a technical notice recommending to CADE a ruling against the companies involved in this proceeding. In their defense, the
subsidiaries&#146; arguments, among others, are that: (i)&nbsp;under the terms of the notice issued by the Company&#146;s chief executive officer on July&nbsp;4, 2000, the subsidiaries&#146; employees were forbidden to discuss with third parties
matters related to prices; and (ii)&nbsp;no consistent evidence was attached to the proceeding&#146;s records. In view of the arguments presented, the fact that the technical notice has no binding effect on CADE&#146;s decision, and their legal
counsel&#146;s opinion, the subsidiaries did not record a provision for this issue. Should CADE&#146;s decision be unfavorable, the subsidiaries can still discuss the issue at the judicial level. </FONT></P> <P

Osasco, State of S&atilde;o Paulo. Such lawsuits involve: (i)&nbsp;individual suits filed by victims of the explosion claiming damages from Ultragaz for the loss of economic benefit and for pain and suffering; (ii)&nbsp;lawsuit for reimbursement of
expenses by the administration company of the shopping mall and its insurance company; and (iii)&nbsp;class action suit seeking indemnification for property damage and pain and suffering for all the victims injured and deceased. The subsidiary
believes that it has presented evidence that defective gas pipes in the shopping mall caused the accident and that Ultragaz&#146;s on-site LPG storage facilities did not contribute to the explosion. Of the 58 lawsuits judged thus far, a favorable
judgment was obtained for 57, and of these 20 have already been dismissed; only 1 had an unfavorable decision, which is still subject to appeal, and whose amount, should the decision be upheld, is R$ 17. Three lawsuits have not yet been judged. The
subsidiary has insurance coverage for these lawsuits, and the uninsured contingent amount is R$ 23,595. The Company has not recorded any provision for this amount, since it believes the probability of loss is remote. </FONT></P> <P

its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of these taxes on sources other than revenues. Recently the STF has decided the matter favorable to the taxpayer. Although it is a precedent, the effect of this decision does not
automatically apply to all companies, since they must await judgment of their own lawsuits. In the first semester of 2007, final decisions were rendered for the Company and its subsidiaries which reversed the accrual previously recorded, in the
amount of R$ 12,759 (in the first semester of 2006&#151;R$ 17,217 of accrual reversal and R$ 26,225 of recovery of amounts paid in previous periods), net of attorney&#146;s fees. The Company has other subsidiaries whose lawsuits have not yet been
judged. Should there be final favorable outcomes for the subsidiaries in all lawsuits still not judged, the Company estimates that the total positive effect in income before income and social contribution taxes should reach R$ 29,300, net of
attorney&#146;s fees. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

respectively. Such contracts establish minimum cargo movement of 1,000,000 tons per year for Aratu, effective through 2022, and 250,000 tons per year for Suape, effective through 2027. If annual movement is less than the minimum required, the
subsidiary is required to pay the difference between the actual movement and the minimum contractual movement, using the port rates in effect at the date established for payment. As of September&nbsp;30, 2007, such rates were R$ 4.59 and R$
3.97&nbsp;per ton for Aratu and Suape, respectively. The subsidiary has met the minimum cargo movement limits since inception of the contracts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

SIZE="2">As mentioned in Note 3, in April of 2007, Ultrapar acquired the control of certain companies of Ipiranga Group. The acquisition process was structured in four phases. The first phase was concluded on April&nbsp;18 with the transfer of
control of the Ipiranga Group. The second phase of the acquisition, which comprises mandatory tender offers (tag along) by Ultrapar for the common shares of Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (RPI), Distribuidora de Produtos de
Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (DPPI) and Companhia Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga (CBPI), is scheduled to be completed shortly. RPI and DPPI tender offers were carried on October&nbsp;22, 2007. Ultrapar acquired 1,274,718 shares of DPPI,
equivalent to 77% of the shares subject to such tender offer and 2,771,781 shares of RPI, equivalent to 82% of the shares subject to such tender offer. The total disbursement in the RPI and DPPI tender offers was R$ 441 million. Of this amount
Ultrapar was responsible for a disbursement of R$ 122 millions, financed through the issuance of a second series of nonconvertible debentures, yielding 102.5% of CDI and maturing in one year from the issuance (see Note 15.e.2). The mandatory tender
offer for CBPI common shares is scheduled to happen on November&nbsp;8, 2007. The maximum disbursement by Ultrapar in the CBPI tender offer will be R$ 54 millions, of a total amount of R$ 194 millions. </FONT></P> <P

the agency in charge of managing this incentive program, a 75% income tax reduction until 2016, which was granted on May&nbsp;25, 2007. On July&nbsp;3, 2007, the benefit analysis report issued by ADENE was directed to the Federal Revenue Service to
be ratified. Such ratification should have occurred in 120 days from the date the request was filed. Such term expired on October&nbsp;31, 2007. Therefore the subsidiary will record in October of 2007 a reduction in its results, with retroactive
effect to January&nbsp;1, 2007, in an amount of R$ 15,418. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:24px;margin-bottom:0px" ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>OTHER INFORMATION CONSIDERED MATERIAL BY THE COMPANY </B></FONT></P> <P

totalled 411,000 tons, a 1% growth over the volume sold in 3Q06. Ultragaz&#146; sales in the bulk gas segment showed a 4% increase (5,000 tons) in 3Q07, compared to 3Q06, as a consequence of winning new clients as well as the improved Brazilian
economic scenario. In the bottled segment Ultragaz&acute;s volume sold remained stable in comparison to 3Q06, in 279,000 tons. Compared to 2Q07, sales volume at Ultragaz rose by 2% due to seasonally stronger sales between the periods. In 9M07
Ultragaz reported total sales volume of 1,181,000 tons, 2% higher than in the same period in 2006. Net sales and services at Ultragaz amounted to R$ 809.4&nbsp;million in 3Q07, down 1% compared to 3Q06, as a consequence of the increased competition
in the LPG market in this third quarter. Compared to 2Q07, net sales showed an increase of 1%, basically as a consequence of the seasonal increase in sales volume. In 9M07, Ultragaz&#146;s net sales amounted to R$ 2,342.4&nbsp;million, up 2%

the sector, for example ANP resolution N&ordm; 07, the implementation of CODIF/Passe Fiscal and the addition of colorant to anhydrous ethanol, all had a positive influence on Ipiranga&#146;s sales volume, which amounted to 2,860,000 cubic metres in
3Q07, up 6% compared to 3Q06 pro-forma figures. Main highlights in 3Q07 were (i)&nbsp;the volume of gasoline, ethanol and NGV (natural gas for vehicles), which showed a 12% increase (110,000 cubic metres) as a result of the expansion in
Brazil&#146;s vehicle fleet, particularly of flex-fuel vehicles, the improvements implemented in the sector and the investments made by the company in the expansion of its NGV service stations network and (ii)&nbsp;the volume of diesel, which
increased by 2% in the period (39,000 cubic metres), as a consequence of increased economic activity. Compared to 2Q07, Ipiranga showed a 4% increase in sales volume (107,000 cubic metres), reflecting the seasonal variation between the periods and
the 30% increase (58,000 cubic meters) in ethanol sales, the latter related to improvements made to legislation in the sector and the record sugarcane harvest in 2007. In 9M07 pro-forma Ipiranga&#146;s total sales amounted to 8,187,000 cubic metres,
5% higher than in the same period in 2006. Net sales at Ipiranga amounted to R$ 4,877.5&nbsp;million in 3Q07, stable when compared to Ipiranga pro-forma net sales in 3Q06, but down 2% when compared to 2Q07. Despite the increase in sales volume net
sales were impacted by the variation in the prices of anhydrous and hydrated ethanol, as a consequence of the record Brazilian sugarcane harvest in 2007, as well as the reduction in the rate of ICMS (Brazilian value added tax) in the state of Rio
Grande do Sul. In 9M07 pro-forma, net sales for Ipiranga totalled R$ 14,382.3&nbsp;million, a 2% increase compared to the pro-forma net sales figures for Ipiranga in 9M06. </FONT></P> <P

the increase in specialty chemicals sales volume in the domestic market, which were 15% and 9% higher than the volumes in 3Q06 and 2Q07, respectively, as a result of investments made in production capacity expansions. Increase in specialty chemicals

the development of new products. Sales of commodities were down 73% (18,000 tons) and 70% (16,000 tons) when compared to 3Q06 and 2Q07, respectively, as a result of the interruption in operations of two PET industrial plants in Brazil, leading to a

basically as a result of higher glycol exports and to a lesser extent to the increase in sales by Oxiteno Mexico and the acquisition of Oxiteno Andina. For 9M07 Oxiteno reported total sales volume of 453,000 tons, up 10% on the same period in 2006.
Oxiteno&#146;s net sales amounted to R$ 421.2&nbsp;million in 3Q07, down 3% compared to 3Q06. The 8% increase in volume sold and the increased proportion of specialty chemicals were offset by the appreciation of 12% of the Brazilian Real against the
US Dollar. In addition revenues in 3Q06 were benefited by an extraordinary gain of R$ 3.3&nbsp;million, as a result of technology sales. Compared to 2Q07, net sales were up 9% as a consequence of the 10% increase in sales volume&#151;the 3%
appreciation of the Brazilian Real was partially offset by the increase in average prices in US dollars. Net sales in 9M07 amounted to R$ 1,205.1&nbsp;million, a 4% increase when compared to 9M06. </FONT></P> <P

utilization at TIS. Total kilometrage travelled was down 17% compared to 3Q06, basically as a consequence of Ultracargo&#146;s decision to concentrate its operations on the provision of differentiated services. Compared to 2Q07, total kilometrage
travelled remained practically unchanged. In 9M07, Ultracargo recorded an overall increase of 17% in average storage volume, as measured in cubic metres, and a 25% reduction in total kilometrage travelled. Ultracargo reported net revenue of R$
59.3&nbsp;million in 3Q07, up 7% and 1% compared to 3Q06 and 2Q07, as a consequence of (i)&nbsp;the expansion in storage operations at the Suape, Aratu and Santos terminals and (ii)&nbsp;the new internal logistics operations, with Petrolog

audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results
of their operations and their changes in financial position for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 in conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. </FONT></P> <P

procedures described above to the statement of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 and, in our opinion, it is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole. </FONT></P> <P

international market and by-products prices in Brazil, in the prior year. In order to minimize operating losses management interrupted production for a significant part of 2005 and from June to October 2006. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As part of the actions to ensure continuity of the oil refining operations, Company&#146;s management intensified contacts and negotiations with the

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On January&nbsp;1, 2003, the subsidiary Ipiranga Petroqu&iacute;mica S.A. (IPQ) changed the criteria to
tax unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses from the accrual basis to the cash basis. Considering the foreign currency exposure of IPQ, the foreign exchange variation significantly influenced the determination of taxable income in prior
periods. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Considering the change in the taxation criteria and also considering the then existing economic scenario, the exposure of IPQ to
several international market conditions, as well as the operating and business cycles of the petrochemical industry (which has presented significant changes in profit margins in periods which are shorter than most of other industry segments), IPQ
management concluded that income projections for periods longer than 3 years may have uncertainty concerning the realization of its assumptions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">As a result of the above, as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 and 2005 IPQ limited the amounts of deferred tax assets recognized to the amount considered probable to be recovered which was determined to be the amounts to be realized over the
subsequent 3 years based on projections of taxable income as of each respective date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, due to the improvement
of macroeconomic condition in Brazil and more accurate projections of the domestic and foreign market variables in the petrochemical industry, management of IPQ reviewed the initial estimate and decided to recognize as deferred tax assets an amount
equal to the amounts expected to be realized over the subsequent 10 years based on projections of taxable income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Recognition of deferred
taxes is based on several factors including history of profitability of subsidiaries and budgets, approved by management, which estimates future income for the realization of this asset. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

Brazilian GAAP. The modification of the terms of the debentures and the issuance of warrants in October 2005 did not have any impact in the accounting for the debentures (which were originally convertible and in October 2005 were modified to
non-convertible) under Brazilian GAAP which continued to be accounted for at its cost plus accrued interest and warrants issued by IQ are not accounted for. For U.S. GAAP purposes, the Company has concluded that the elimination of the conversion
feature previously included in the debentures results in a substantial modification under EITF 06-06 &#147;Debtor&#146;s Accounting for a Modification (or Exchange) of Convertible Debt Instruments&#148;. The Company has concluded that the warrant
does not qualify to be accounted for as equity and should be accounted for as liability. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Upon modification the Company recognized a
liability for the estimated fair value of the warrant as of the date of modification and recognized a discount, for the same amount, on the non-convertible debenture issued at such time. The discount is recognized as expense over the period until
the stated settlement date of the non-convertible debenture. Warrants are subsequently recognized at fair value. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The U.S. GAAP
reconciliation as of dates after October 2005 includes a reconciling item for the recognition of the discount on the modified debt and for the fair value of the warrant liability. </FONT></P> <P

and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

statements referred to in the first paragraph, prepared in conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. The consolidated statement of cash flows, which provides supplemental information about the Company and its subsidiaries, is not a
required component of the financial statements. We also applied the audit procedures described above to the statement of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 and, in our opinion, it is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Accounting practices adopted in Brazil vary in certain significant

the conclusion of lawsuits filed against the Company seeking repossession of a property of the Company and a claim of damages. In December 2006 property returned to the Company and the courts decided that no damages would be paid by the Company and
the lawsuits were concluded. Another factor that led to the decrease refers to the revaluation of the likelihood of loss of the damage claim, considering the consolidation of previous court decisions favorable to the position of the Company.

Substitution on interstate sales to end consumers under ICMS Agreement No.&nbsp;105/92, subsequently amended by Agreement No.&nbsp;112/93, in which the STF (Federal Supreme Court) resolved the matter, defining that the ICMS on fuel belongs to the

allowed the maintenance of the credit and which was suspended by an injunction granted by the STF; and (4)&nbsp;assessments due to undue deduction of discounts from the ICMS tax basis, in Minas Gerais State, owed on a tax substitution basis.

2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, of changes in financial position and of changes in shareholders&#146; equity for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of

our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their changes in financial position for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 in conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. </FONT></P> <P

with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. The consolidated statement of cash flows, which provides supplemental information about the Company and its subsidiaries, is not a required component of the financial statements. We also applied the audit

convertible debentures, consisting of 11,000 Series A debentures, with face value of R$ 10 each, amounting to R$ 110,000, and 80,000 Series B debentures, with face value of R$&nbsp;1&nbsp;each, amounting to R$&nbsp;80,000. Both series of debentures
mature on June&nbsp;1, 2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On June&nbsp;12, 2003, DPPI fully subscribed the Series A and the Company fully subscribed the Series B.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The subscribed debentures pay interest based on the CDI interest rate, plus spread subject to renegotiation every 6 months (for Series A)
and every 5 months (for Series B) as established by the indenture dated June&nbsp;1, 2003. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The spread for Series A debentures, for the most
part of 2005, was 1.5%&nbsp;per year, and changed to 1.0%&nbsp;per year on December&nbsp;1, 2005, remaining the same for 2006. The spread for Series B debentures was 1.0%&nbsp;per year in 2005 remaining the same for 2006. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Debentures are convertible into common shares of Ipiranga Qu&iacute;mica S.A. at any time after its issuance and until its maturity or redemption at the
option of the holder. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The conversion price is a fixed amount established in the Indenture of the debentures. However, the quantity of
common shares to be received upon conversion will be higher than the amount determined as face value of the debentures divided by the conversion price if they are converted before June&nbsp;1, 2007. The quantity of additional shares to be received
will be 25% if converted up to June&nbsp;1, 2004, 18.2177% if converted before June&nbsp;1, 2005, 11.8034% if converted before June&nbsp;1, 2006 and 5.7371% if converted before June&nbsp;1, 2007. </FONT></P> <P

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The shareholders&#146; meetings of Ipiranga Petroqu&iacute;mica S.A. (&#147;IPQ&#148;, a subsidiary of IQ) held on April&nbsp;28, 2006 approved the payment of supplementary dividends and a capital reduction, scheduled
for June&nbsp;13, 2006 and July&nbsp;31, 2006, respectively. Considering that IQ, due to its interest in IPQ, received funds on said dates, the Board of Directors of IQ, at a meeting held on May&nbsp;2, 2006, resolved that IQ would partially early
redeem its debentures, which were issued on June&nbsp;1, 2003 due to the financial cost of this debt. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As a result, in 2006, IQ partially
amortized 71.6% of the Series B debentures, subscribed by CBPI, in the amount of R$ 101,062&nbsp;thousand (there was no amortization in 2005). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

signed on October&nbsp;3, 2005, the Company, DPPI and Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (the controlling shareholder of IQ) agreed to hold an Extraordinary Shareholders&#146; Meeting of IQ to approve a change in the type of debentures,
issued by IQ on June&nbsp;1, 2003. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The changes approved on the meeting held on October&nbsp;6, 2005 were: (i)&nbsp;to change the debentures
from convertible to nonconvertible without making any other change in the terms or conditions of the debentures, and (ii)&nbsp;the issuance of warrants to the holders of the debentures, without any charge, replacing the conversion right established
for the debentures; the terms of the warrants allow their holder to purchase common shares of IQ in exactly the same terms than the conversion features originally included in the debentures. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Subsequently, on December&nbsp;1, 2005, a Sale Agreement was signed whereby DPPI sold for R$ 29&nbsp;million to Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A.
the warrants it has obtained. The amount for the sale of the warrants is payable on October&nbsp;3, 2007, and carries interest at the CDI interest rate. </FONT></P>

Obligations&#148;. Asset retirement obligations correspond to the legally required obligation to remove fuel tanks upon retirement. Under SFAS No.&nbsp;143, the fair value of asset retirement obligations are recorded as liabilities on a discounted
basis when they are incurred, which is typically at the time the related assets are installed. Amounts recorded for the related assets will be increased by the amount of these obligations and depreciated over the related useful lives of such assets.
Over time, the amounts recognized as liabilities will be accreted for the change in their present value until the related assets are retired or sold. </FONT></P>   <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT

non-convertible; no other terms of the debentures have been modified. At the same moment, IQ issued to the holders of the debentures, detachable warrants which allow the holders of the warrants to acquire shares of IQ in the exact same terms as the
previously existing non-detachable conversion option included in the debentures. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under Brazilian GAAP, warrants are not separately
recorded. The modification of the terms of the debentures and the issuance of warrants in October 2005 did not have any impact in the accounting for the debentures (which were originally convertible and in October 2005 were modified to
non-convertible) under Brazilian GAAP which continued to be accounted for at its cost plus accrued interest and warrants issued by IQ are not accounted for. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

non-convertible debenture received approximates the fair value of the convertible debenture prior to modification. Therefore, upon modification the Company recorded the warrant and debt at their fair values with no gain or loss recognized.
</FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">After the modification, the Company continued to mark to market the non-convertible debt instrument with charges to the statement of

, a Company should recognize a liability based on a systematic and rational allocation of the cost of honoring the commitment in each of the underlying transactions that result in progress toward earning the refund. Considering the reduced customers
to which the refund is offered and the reduced historical experience, the Company believes that it cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate amount that will be earned by customers. As a result, under U.S. GAAP a liability is recognized for the
maximum potential amount of the refund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>(l) Goodwill and business combinations </B></FONT></P> <P

an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the purchase price such amount is used to reduce the carrying value of long-term assets. As from January&nbsp;1, 2002 goodwill is not amortized but is tested, at least annually, for impairment.

the criteria to tax unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses from the accrual basis to the cash basis. Considering the foreign currency exposure of IPQ, the foreign exchange variation significantly influenced the determination of taxable income
in prior periods. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Considering the change in the taxation criteria and also considering the then existing economic scenario, the exposure
of IPQ to several international market conditions, as well as the operating and business cycles of the petrochemical industry (which has presented significant changes in profit margins in periods which are shorter than most of other industry
segments), IPQ management concluded that income projections for periods longer than 3 years may have uncertainty concerning the realization of its assumptions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

realized over the subsequent 3 years based on projections of taxable income as of each respective date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, due
to the improvement of macroeconomic condition in Brazil and more accurate projections of the domestic and foreign market variables in the petrochemical industry, management of IPQ reviewed the initial estimate and decided to recognize as deferred
tax assets an amount equal to the amounts expected to be realized over the subsequent 10 years based on projections of taxable income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

<TD ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, tax lawsuit of IPQ included in this classification refers to IRRF (withholding income tax) levied on dividends received from a subsidiary in 1994 and
1995 for which the Company formalized a refund request to the Federal Revenue Service (SRF) since at that time there were no objective conditions for offset since: (i)&nbsp;dividends were no longer subject to taxation beginning January&nbsp;1, 1996,
and (ii)&nbsp;it was not possible to pay dividends up to calendar year 2004 due to accumulated deficit. The SRF, by means of Regulatory Instruction No.&nbsp;12/99, regulated the matter and started to allow the offset of said IRRF against tax payable
on interest on capital paid by the IPQ to its shareholders. Based on income for 2005 and 2006, IPQ paid interest on capital to its shareholders and offset, in 2006, the prepaid IRRF tax asset against the IRRF levied on interest on capital.
Considering that the IRRF asset was considered contingent, IPQ&#146;s management recognized a provision for contingencies related to the amount of IRRF subject to offset and, simultaneously, maintains the discussion about the matter at the
administrative level. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="font-size:18px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

U.S.&nbsp;GAAP, are summarized below: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>a) Inflation accounting </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under Brazilian GAAP, the Company accounts for the effects of inflation in its financial statements prepared in accordance with Brazilian GAAP through
December&nbsp;31, 1995. Through December&nbsp;31, 1995, the Company used for this remeasurement the Fiscal Reference Unit (UFIR), the index established by the tax authorities for preparation of financial statements under Brazilian Corporate Law as
well as the index selected by the CVM. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The reconciliation presents the effect of adjusting property, plant and equipment for U.S. GAAP
purposes through December&nbsp;31, 1997. Under U.S. GAAP, management of the Company considers that Brazil was considered to be a highly inflationary economy until December&nbsp;31, 1997 and, as such, property, plant and equipment should be adjusted
for inflation through such date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In determining amounts under U.S. GAAP, the effects of inflation for the years ended December&nbsp;31,
1996 and 1997 were determined using the &#147;&Iacute;ndice Geral de Pre&ccedil;os-Disponibilidade Interna-IGP-DI&#148; index, which is a widely-accepted and respected index published monthly by the Funda&ccedil;&atilde;o Get&uacute;lio Vargas.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because the Company&#146;s management believes that the IGP-DI is an appropriate and consistent measure of the general price inflation in
Brazil and because of its availability, for U.S. GAAP purposes the Company adopted the IGP-DI for restatement of its financial statements also for periods through December&nbsp;31, 1995, replacing the Government mandated index. As a result,
property, plant and equipment have been monetarily adjusted for inflation using the IGP-DI since its acquisition through December&nbsp;31, 1997. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

expenses incurred in the construction or expansion of a new facility until the facility begins commercial operations. Deferred charges are amortized over 10 years and are recorded under deferred charges and other current assets. </FONT></P> <P

Biofuel Agency-ANP) was in effect and, although the freight reimbursements have always been made by DNC without the ICMS amount, previous court decisions have been unfavorable to the Company&#146;s arguments; (2)&nbsp;requirement of ICMS/Tax
Substitution on interstate sales to end consumers under ICMS Agreement No.&nbsp;105/92, subsequently amended by Agreement No.&nbsp;112/93, in which the STF (Federal Supreme Court) resolved the matter, defining that the ICMS on fuel belongs to the
State that consumes the fuel, even if the fuel is sold to the end consumer; (3)&nbsp;requirement of reversal of credits for ICMS, in Minas Gerais State, on interstate shipments made pursuant to article 33 of ICMS Agreement No.&nbsp;66/88, which
allowed the maintenance of the credit and which was suspended by an injunction granted by the STF; and (4)&nbsp;assessments due to undue deduction of discounts from the ICMS tax basis, in Minas Gerais State, owed on a tax substitution basis.

December&nbsp;31, 1995. Through December&nbsp;31, 1995, the Company used for this remeasurement the Fiscal Reference Unit (UFIR), the index established by the tax authorities for preparation of financial statements under Brazilian corporate law as
well as the index selected by the CVM. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The reconciliation presents the effect of adjusting property, plant and equipment for U.S. GAAP
purposes through December&nbsp;31, 1997. Under U.S. GAAP, management of the Company considers that Brazil was considered to be a highly inflationary economy until December&nbsp;31, 1997 and, as such, property, plant and equipment should be adjusted
for inflation through such date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In determining amounts under U.S. GAAP, the effects of inflation for the years ended December&nbsp;31,
1996 and 1997 were determined using the &#147;&Iacute;ndice Geral de Pre&ccedil;os&#151;Disponibilidade Interna&#151;IGP-DI&#148; index, which is a widely-accepted and respected index published monthly by the funda&ccedil;&atilde;o Get&uacute;lio
Vargas. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because the Company&#146;s management believes that the IGP-DI is an appropriate and consistent measure of the general price
inflation in Brazil and because of its availability, for U.S. GAAP purposes the Company adopted the IGP-DI for restatement of its financial statements also for periods through December&nbsp;31, 1995, replacing the Government mandated index. As a
result, property, plant and equipment have been monetarily adjusted for inflation using the IGP-DI since its acquisition through December&nbsp;31, 1997. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT

1996 the Company was not required to capitalize the interest cost of borrowed funds as part of the cost of the related asset. Under U.S. GAAP, capitalization of borrowed funds during construction of major facilities is recognized as part of the cost
of the related assets. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under U.S. GAAP, interest on construction-period financing denominated in foreign currencies is capitalized using

obligations for Brazilian GAAP should be accounted for following CVM Instruction No.&nbsp;371/00, which requires the mandatory application of Brazilian Accounting Standard IBRACON NPC 26. Under IBRACON NPC 26 the Company has accounted for the plan
administered by FFMB (and to which several Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies contribute) by recognizing a percentage attributed to the Company of the funded status and of the cost of the plan. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under U.S. GAAP, considering that the financial information of the Company does not consolidate all the sponsors of the FFMB Benefit Plan and such
financial information does not represent the financial statements of the parent company of the Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies, the Company has accounted for its participation in the pension plan administered by FFMB, as if it were a
multi-employer plan. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As a result, the reconciliation presents: (a)&nbsp;the reversal of the pension plan asset/liability recognized for

the new debt instrument received as a trading security under FAS 115. In addition, the Company has concluded that the fair value of the warrant and non-convertible debenture received approximates the fair value of the convertible debenture prior to
modification. Therefore, upon modification the Company recorded the warrant and debt at their fair values. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Contemporaneously with the
modification of the terms of the debenture and the issuance of warrants, the Company sold the warrants received to RPI for R$ 29 million. This amount approximates the fair value of the warrants at the date of modification of the convertible
debentures and issuance of warrants, so no gain or loss was recorded by the Company upon sale under U.S. GAAP. Under Brazilian GAAP no value was recognized for the warrant received and therefore, a gain for the sales price of R$ 29&nbsp;million was
recognized. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The U.S. GAAP reconciliation reflects the difference in the mark to market of the convertible debt instrument through the date
of modification, compared to the amortized cost value recorded for Brazilian GAAP purposes. The U.S. GAAP reconciliation also reverses the $29 million gain for the sale of the warrants recognized under Brazilian GAAP. </FONT></P> <P

Company and its subsidiary CBPI offer to certain of its customers refunds in cash if they meet a specified cumulative volume of sales over a specified period. Under Brazilian GAAP, the refund is recognized as an expense when the cumulative volume of
sales has been met. Such refunds are offered to a reduced group of customers and have begun to be offered recently. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under U.S. GAAP, EITF
01-9, &#147;Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of the Vendor&#146;s Products)&#148;, a Company should recognize a reduction in sales and a liability based on a systematic and rational allocation of the
cost of honoring the commitment in each of the underlying transactions that result in progress toward earning the refund. Considering the reduced number of customers to which the refund is offered and the reduced historical experience, the Company
believes that it cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate amount that will be earned by customers. As a result, under U.S. GAAP a liability is recognized for the maximum potential amount of the refund. </FONT></P> <P

referred mainly to: (1)&nbsp;requirement of reversal of credits for ICMS on the provision of proper transportation services during the period the system of freight reimbursement by DNC (currently National Oil, Natural Gas and Biofuel
Agency&#151;ANP) was in effect and, although the freight reimbursements have always been made by DNC without the ICMS amount, previous court decisions have been unfavorable to the Company&#146;s arguments; (2)&nbsp;requirement of ICMS/Tax
Substitution on interstate sales to end consumers under ICMS Agreement No.&nbsp;105/92, subsequently amended by Agreement No.&nbsp;112/93, in which the STF (Federal Supreme Court) resolved the matter, defining that the ICMS on fuel belongs to the
State that consumes the fuel, even if the fuel is sold to the end consumer; (3)&nbsp;requirement of reversal of credits for ICMS, in Minas Gerais State, on interstate shipments made pursuant to article 33 of ICMS Agreement No.&nbsp;66/88, which
allowed the maintenance of the credit and which was suspended by an injunction granted by the STF; and (4)&nbsp;assessments due to undue deduction of discounts from the ICMS tax basis, in Minas Gerais State, owed on a tax substitution basis.

December&nbsp;31, 1995. Through December&nbsp;31, 1995, the Company used for this remeasurement the Fiscal Reference Unit (UFIR), the index established by the tax authorities for preparation of financial statements under Brazilian corporate law as
well as the index selected by the CVM. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The reconciliation presents the effect of adjusting property, plant and equipment for U.S. GAAP
purposes through December&nbsp;31, 1997. Under U.S. GAAP, management of the Company considers that Brazil was considered to be a highly inflationary economy until December&nbsp;31, 1997 and, as such, property, plant and equipment should be adjusted
for inflation through such date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In determining amounts under U.S. GAAP, the effects of inflation for the years ended December&nbsp;31,
1996 and 1997 were determined using the &#147;&Iacute;ndice Geral de Pre&ccedil;os&#151;Disponibilidade Interna&#151;IGP-DI&#148; index, which is a widely-accepted and a respected index published on a monthly basis by the Funda&ccedil;&atilde;o
Get&uacute;lio Vargas. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because the Company&#146;s management believes that the IGP-DI is an appropriate and consistent measure of the
general price inflation in Brazil and because of its availability, for U.S. GAAP purposes the Company adopted the IGP-DI for restatement of its financial statements also for periods through December&nbsp;31, 1995, replacing the Government mandated
index. As a result, property, plant and equipment has been monetarily adjusted for inflation using the IGP-DI since its acquisition through December&nbsp;31, 1997. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT

Plans&#151;an amendment of FASB Statements No.&nbsp;87, 88, 106 and 132(R)&#148;. Under SFAS No.&nbsp;158, the funded status of the other postretirement benefits must be recognized as a liability with an offsetting amount in accumulated other

The changes approved were: (i)&nbsp;to change the debentures from convertible to nonconvertible without making any other change in the terms or conditions of the debentures, and (ii)&nbsp;the issuance of warrants to the holders of the debentures,
without any charge, replacing the conversion right established for the debentures; the terms of the warrants allow their holders to purchase common shares of IQ under exactly the same terms as the conversion features originally included for the
debentures. Subsequently, on December&nbsp;1, 2005, a Sale Agreement was signed whereby DPPI sold for R$ 29&nbsp;million to Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. the warrants it had obtained. The amount for the sale of the warrants is payable
on October&nbsp;3, 2007, and bears interest at the CDI interest rate. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="font-size:4px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

The acquisition process is structured in four stages. The first stage was concluded on April&nbsp;18 with the control transference. Currently the second stage of the process is being concluded, which is the accomplishment of tag along public
offering (OPA) by Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (RPI), Distribuidora de Produtos de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (DPPI) and Companhia Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (CBPI). On October&nbsp;22, the auctions were made
through public offering by DPPI and RPI. A total of 1,274,718 shares were acquired by DPPI, equivalent to 77% of the shares offered by the target and 2,771,781 shares by RPI, equivalent to 82% of the shares offered by the target. The auction of OPA

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies have an insurance and risk management program that enables coverage and protection for all their insurable assets, including insurance coverage for risks of disruption to
production, by means of an operational risk policy traded in the domestic and foreign insurance markets through the Brazilian Reinsurance Institute (IRB). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The insurance coverage and limits are based on a detailed study of risks and losses performed by local insurance brokers, and the insurance contracted is considered sufficient to cover possible losses, considering the

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As mentioned in Note 9, in April 2007 Ultrapar acquired the control of certain companies from the Ipiranga Group. The acquisition process is structured in
four stages. The first stage was concluded on April&nbsp;18 with the control transference. Currently the second stage of the process is being concluded, which is the accomplishment of the tag along public offering (OPA) by Refinaria de
Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (RPI), Distribuidora de Produtos de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (DPPI) and Companhia Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (CBPI). On October&nbsp;22, the auctions were held for the public offering of DPPI and
RPI. A total of 1,274,718 shares in DPPI were acquired, equivalent to 77% of the shares offered and 2,771,781 shares in RPI, equivalent to 82% of the shares offered, resulting in a total disbursement of R$ 441 million. The corresponding amount for
Ultrapar was R$ 122&nbsp;million, financed through the issuance of a second series of single debentures, non convertible, with a yield of 102.5% of CDI, maturing in one year (see Note 15 and 2). The auction of the OPA by CBPI is anticipated for
November&nbsp;8, 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px" ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * </FONT></P> <P

2006 and 2005, and the related carve-out statements of operations, of changes in financial position and of changes in net assets for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004. These carve-out financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company&#146;s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these carve-out financial statements based on our audits. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We
conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and its changes in financial position for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 in conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. </FONT></P> <P

conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. The carve-out statement of cash flows, which provides supplemental information about the Oil Refining Business of Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A., is not a required component of the
financial statements. We also applied the audit procedures described above to the carve-out statement of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 and, in our opinion, it is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to
the financial statements taken as a whole. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Accounting practices adopted in Brazil vary in certain significant respects from accounting

of two series of private convertible debentures, consisting of 11,000 Series A debentures, with face value of R$ 10 each, amounting to R$ 110,000, and 80,000 Series B debentures, with face value of R$ 1 each, amounting to R$&nbsp;80,000. Both series
of debentures mature on June&nbsp;1, 2008. On June&nbsp;12, 2003, Distribuidora de Produtos de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga fully subscribed the Series A and Cia Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga fully subscribed the Series B. The subscribed
debentures pay interest based on the CDI interest rate, plus spread subject to renegotiation every 6 months (for Series A) and every 5 months (for Series B) as established by the indenture dated June&nbsp;1, 2003. The spread for Series A debentures,
for the most part of 2005, was 1.5%&nbsp;per year, and changed to 1.0%&nbsp;per year on December&nbsp;1, 2005 remaining the same in 2006. The spread for Series B debentures was 1.0%&nbsp;per year in 2005. </FONT></P> <P

December&nbsp;31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated carve-out statements of income, of changes in financial position and of changes in net assets for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004. These carve-out consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company&#146;s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these carve-out financial statements based on our audits. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In our opinion, the carve-out consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the South Fuel and Lubricant Distribution Business of Distribuidora de Produtos de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their changes in financial
position for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 in conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our audits were
performed for the purpose of issuing an opinion on the financial statements referred to in the first paragraph, prepared in conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. The consolidated statement of cash flows, which provides supplemental
information about the Company and its subsidiaries, is not a required component of the financial statements. We also applied the audit procedures described above to the statement of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004
and, in our opinion, it is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Accounting
practices adopted in Brazil vary in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in Note 25 to the

Agreement (&#147;SPA&#148;), with the Key Shareholders of the principal companies of the Ipiranga Group which comprised Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (&#147;RPI&#148;), Distribuidora de Produtos de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (the
&#147;Company&#148;) and Companhia Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga (&#147;CBPI&#148;). As discussed further below, in connection with the Acquisition, Ultrapar is acting on its own behalf and on behalf of Petrobras and Braskem pursuant to the
agreements of the transaction. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">After completion of additional steps of the transaction (which include, among others, public offers to
acquire shares held by minority shareholders of the companies acquired and exchange offers to other minority shareholders of RPI, DPPI and CPBI into Ultrapar) the businesses of Ipiranga Group will be divided among Petrobras, Ultrapar and Braskem.
Ultrapar will retain the fuel and lubricant distribution businesses located in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil (the &#147;South and Southeast Distribution Business&#148;). </FONT></P> <P

periods presented the Company had a majority of voting shares of CBPI, which results in the Company controlling CBPI. Whereas DPPI only operates in parts of the South region of Brazil, CBPI has operations in all regions of the country, with
exception of those covered by DPPI. Both are public companies with separate and different minority shareholder bases. Although the Company had a controlling interest over CBPI, the former shareholders operated the two companies on a completely
independent basis so that they were managed by different executives, pursued different strategies and possessed different information and accounting systems. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

differ from the consolidated financial statements of the Company for statutory and regulatory purposes because they exclude the investment of the Company in CBPI. The investment in CBPI is consolidated in the consolidated financial statements of the
Company for statutory and regulatory purposes. In this carve-out financial statements the Company does not present the investment in CBPI. All the business carried out by the Company are part of the South Distribution Business acquired by Ultrapar

December&nbsp;31, 2006, the only accrued civil lawsuit of the Company involved an indemnity claim. The reduction in provision for civil contingencies in 2006 is due mainly to the conclusion of lawsuits filed against the Company seeking repossession
of a property of the Company and a claim of damages. In December 2006 property returned to the Company and the courts decided that no damages should be paid by the Company and the lawsuits were concluded. Another factor that led to the decrease
refers to the revaluation of the likelihood of loss of the damage claim, considering the consolidation of previous court decisions favorable to the position of the Company. </FONT></P> <P

entity that manages and operates pension plans for the employees of Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">FFMB Benefit Plan was created in
1993. Initially, only the &#147;basic benefit&#148; was established (a defined benefit plan) and in July 1998 the &#147;supplementary benefit&#148; (structured as a defined contribution plan in the phase of capitalization of estimated benefits) was
implemented, whose contribution percentage is applicable to possible variable compensation. The pension plan is funded by the sponsors and participants. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On August&nbsp;31, 2005, the SPC (Secretariat for Pension Plan), through Official Letter No.&nbsp;1003/SPC/DETEC/CGAT, approved the new Ruling of FFMB Benefit Plan. New regulations were introduced related to
portability, deferred proportional benefit, self-sponsorship and redemption provided for in CGPC (Supplemental Pension Management Council) Resolution No.&nbsp;6, of October&nbsp;30, 2003, as well as changes in the calculation of benefits, new GAM-83
life expectancy table and change in the actuarial method from unit credit to projected unit credit became effective as actuarial adjustments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">The main changes in the calculations of benefits, approved in the new regulation, refer to the adjustment of the employee salary, gradual elimination of bonus for length of service credited for the purpose of calculating benefits and the
increase in the percentage of reduction of the early retirement basic benefit. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">These changes reduced the plan&#146;s total cost for the
sponsors by 36%, as defined by the actuary based on the percentage of the participants&#146; payroll for 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In 2006, SPC, by means of
CGPC Resolution No.&nbsp;18, of March&nbsp;28, 2006, established new technical/actuarial parameters for private pension plan entities. Therefore, the minimum life expectancy table that will be adopted is AT-1983, increasing the life expectancy of
active participants by approximately 2 years. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>(b) Other post-employment benefits </B></FONT></P> <P

related to bonus for length of service, FGTS (severance pay fund), health-care plan and life insurance for eligible retirees. Other post-employment benefits are unfunded and are provided directly by the Company and each of its subsidiaries of the

March&nbsp;18, 2007, Ultrapar Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es S.A. (&#147;Ultrapar&#148;) entered into, and Petr&oacute;leo Brasileiro S.A. -Petrobras (&#147;Petrobras&#148;) and Braskem S.A. (&#147;Braskem&#148;) acknowledged, a Stock Purchase
Agreement, (&#147;SPA&#148;), with the Key Shareholders of the principal Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies which comprise Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga (&#147;RPI&#148;), Distribuidora de Produtos de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga
(&#147;DPPI&#148;) and Companhia Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga (&#147;CBPI&#148;). As discussed further below, in connection with the acquisition, Ultrapar is acting on its own behalf and on behalf of Petrobras and Braskem pursuant to the
agreements of the transaction. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">After completion of additional steps of the transaction (which include, among others, public offers to
acquire shares held by minority shareholders of the companies acquired and exchange offers to other minority shareholders of RPI, DPPI and CPBI into Ultrapar) the businesses of the Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies will be divided among Petrobras,
Ultrapar and Braskem. Ultrapar will retain the fuel and lubricant distribution businesses located in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil; Petrobras will receive the fuel and lubricant distribution businesses located in the North, Northeast and
Central-West regions of Brazil; and Petrobras and Braskem will receive the petrochemical business, in the proportion of 60% for Braskem and 40% for Petrobras. RPI&#146;s oil refining business will be shared equally among Petrobras, Ultrapar and
Braskem. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The fuel and lubricant distribution business of the Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga was operated through two companies: DPPI and CBPI.
For all periods presented DPPI had a majority of voting shares of CBPI, which results in DPPI controlling CBPI. Whereas DPPI only operates in parts of the South region of Brazil, CBPI has operations in all regions of the country, with exception of
those covered by DPPI. Both are public companies with separate and different minority shareholder bases. Although DPPI had a controlling interest over CBPI, the Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies operated the two companies on a completely
independent basis so that they were managed by different executives, pursued different strategies and possessed different information and accounting systems. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The fuel and lubricant distribution businesses located in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil operated by CBPI (&#147;South and Southeast Distribution Business&#148; or the &#147;Business&#148;) have not been
managed as a stand-alone business or a separate entity, subsidiary or division of the Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies or of CBPI, and, consequently, its financial statements have never previously been prepared. Neither the Petr&oacute;leo
Ipiranga companies nor CBPI have ever allocated certain corporate expenses to the Business, including interest expense, corporate overhead expenses and income taxes. This information is not otherwise readily available and any allocation would be
subjective and may not be relevant due to differences in corporate structures between the structure existing when the Business was operated by the Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga companies and the planned structure for operating the business by Ultrapar.

countrywide business lines (aggregated under retail and large consumer operations), as opposed to a segmentation based on geographical regions. Consequently, an important set of information relating to profit from operations was not segmented by
geographical region and items such as property, plant and equipment not directly related to revenue generating activities, overhead expenses, debt and related costs and cash balances, among others, were recorded on Company wide basis. As a result
the following items were excluded from the financial information: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:6px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">FFMB Pension Plan was created in 1993. Initially, only the &#147;basic benefit&#148; was established (a
defined benefit plan) and in July 1998 a &#147;supplementary benefit&#148; (structured as a defined contribution plan in the phase of capitalization of estimated benefits) was implemented, whose contribution is computed as a percentage over variable
compensation. The pension plan is funded by the sponsors and the participants. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On August&nbsp;31, 2005, the SPC (Secretariat for Pension
Plan), through Official Letter No. 1003/SPC/DETEC/ CGAT, approved the new Ruling of the FFMB Benefit Plan. New regulations related to portability, deferred proportional benefit, self-sponsorship and redemption provided for in CGPC (Supplemental
Pension Management Council) Resolution No.&nbsp;6 of October&nbsp;30, 2003 were introduced, and changes in the calculation of benefits, new GAM-83 life expectancy table and change in the actuarial method from unit credit to projected unit credit
became effective as actuarial adjustments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The main changes in the calculations of benefits, approved in the new regulation, refer to the
adjustment of the employee salary, gradual elimination of bonus for length of service credited for the purpose of calculating benefits and the increase in the percentage of reduction of the early retirement basic benefit. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">These changes in the FFMB Pension Plan reduced the plan&#146;s total cost for the sponsors by 36%, as defined by the actuary based on the percentage of
the participants&#146; payroll for 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In 2006, SPC, by means of CGPC Resolution No.&nbsp;18, of March&nbsp;28, 2006, established new
technical/actuarial parameters for private pension plan entities. Therefore, the minimum life expectancy table that was adopted is AT-1983, which results in increasing life expectancy of active participants by approximately two years. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The amounts related to supplementary benefits and pension plan were calculated annually by independent actuaries and are recognized in the financial

corresponding to bonus for length of service, FGTS (severance pay fund), health-care plan and life insurance for eligible retirees. Other post-employment benefits are unfunded and are provided directly by the Business and each of its subsidiaries of
the Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga Group. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The reconciliation of pension and other post-retirement benefit liabilities of the Business as of

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultrapar is one of Brazil&#146;s largest corporate groups and a leader in the distribution of liquefied petroleum gas, or LPG, production of chemicals, and the provision of integrated logistics services. Our wholly
owned subsidiary, Ultragaz, is the largest LPG distributor in Brazil, with a national market share of approximately 24%. In the chemicals business, our wholly owned subsidiary, Oxiteno, is the largest producer of ethylene oxide and its principal
derivatives in South America and a major producer of specialty chemicals. Through our wholly owned subsidiary, Ultracargo, we believe we are a leading provider of integrated road transport, storage, handling and logistics planning services for
special bulk cargo. On April&nbsp;18, 2007, Ultrapar expanded its distribution operations, having closed the acquisition of Ipiranga Group, the second largest Brazilian fuel distributor. </FONT></P> <P

<TD ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The inclusion of adjusted EBITDA information is to provide a measure of assessing our ability to generate cash from our operations. Adjusted EBITDA is equal to operating income
before financial items plus depreciation and amortization. In managing our business we rely on adjusted EBITDA as a means of assessing our operating performance and a portion of our management&#146;s compensation and employee profit sharing plan is
linked to adjusted EBITDA performance. Because adjusted EBITDA excludes non-operating expenses (income), interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, it provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by debt
restructurings, fluctuations in interest rates or effective tax rates, or levels of non-operating expenses (income), depreciation and amortization. Accordingly, we believe that this type of measurement is useful for comparing general operating
performance from period to period and making certain related management decisions. We also calculate adjusted EBITDA in connection with covenants related to some of our financings. We believe that adjusted EBITDA enhances the understanding of our
financial performance and our ability to satisfy principal and interest obligations with respect to our indebtedness as well as to fund capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance
under U.S. GAAP or Brazilian GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net income, as a measure of operating performance, as a substitute for cash flows from operations or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted
EBITDA has material limitations that impair its value as a measure of a company&#146;s overall profitability since it does not address certain ongoing costs of our business that could significantly affect profitability such a financial expenses and
income taxes, depreciation or capital expenditures and associated charges. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

measure of financial performance or liquidity under U.S. GAAP or Brazilian GAAP. In managing our business we rely on net cash (debt) as a means of assessing our financial condition. We believe that this type of measurement is useful for comparing
our financial condition from period to period and making related management decisions. Net cash (debt) is also used in connection with covenants related to some of our financings. The table below provides a reconciliation of our consolidated balance

rate exchange market and the floating rate exchange market were unified in a sole exchange market, effective as of March&nbsp;14, 2005. The new resolution allows, subject to certain procedures and specific regulatory provisions, the purchase and

1994 and through 1998, the Central Bank maintained a band system exchange rate, under which the exchange rate between the <I>real</I> and the U.S. dollar would fluctuate within a pre-established moving band. In January 1999, due to market pressures,
the Central Bank abolished the band system and allowed the <I>real</I>/U.S. dollar exchange rate to float freely. Since then, the exchange rate has been established by the market and has fluctuated considerably, reporting a maximum quotation of
R$3.955 per US$ 1.00 on October&nbsp;22, 2002. Since the liberalization of the exchange rate, the Central Bank has intervened occasionally to control unstable movements in the foreign exchange rate. It is not possible to predict whether the Central
Bank will continue to let the <I>real</I> float freely or whether the <I>real</I> will remain at its present level. Accordingly, it is not possible to predict what impact the Brazilian government&#146;s exchange rate policies may have on us. The
Brazilian government could impose a band system in the future or the <I>real</I> could devalue or appreciate substantially. See &#147;Item 3.D. Key Information &#151; Risk factors &#151; Risks Relating to Brazil.&#148; </FONT></P> <P

Natural gas is currently less expensive than LPG for industrial consumers who purchase large volumes, but more expensive for residential consumers. In addition, supply of natural gas requires significant investments in pipelines. The development of

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">All second generation petrochemical producers in Brazil that use ethylene as their key raw material, including Oxiteno, our subsidiary involved in the production and sale of chemical and petrochemical products,
purchase ethylene from Brazilian suppliers. Approximately 25% of our net sales are derived from the sale of chemical products that require ethylene. Oxiteno purchases ethylene from two of Brazil&#146;s three naphtha crackers, which are the sole
sources of ethylene in Brazil. Braskem S.A., or Braskem, supplies all of our ethylene requirements at our plant located at Cama&ccedil;ari pursuant to a long-term contract, and Petroqu&iacute;mica Uni&atilde;o S.A., or PQU, supplies all of our
ethylene requirements at our plant located at Mau&aacute;. Oxiteno, like other purchasers from PQU, does not have a long-term contract for the purchase of ethylene from PQU. Because of its characteristics, ethylene is difficult and expensive to
store and transport, and cannot be easily imported into Brazil. Therefore, Oxiteno is almost totally dependent on ethylene produced at Braskem and PQU for its supply of ethylene. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, Brazilian ethylene imports
totaled approximately 1.4 tons, representing less than 0.01% of Brazil&#146;s installed capacity. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Due to ethylene&#146;s chemical
characteristics, Oxiteno does not store significant quantities of ethylene, and reductions in supply from Braskem and PQU would have an immediate impact on our production and results of operations. We are currently investing in the ethylene oxide
production capacity expansion and we have agreed with Braskem and PQU the additional ethylene supply for this expansion. See &#147;Item 4.A. Information on the Company &#151; History and Development of the Company &#151; Investments.&#148; If we
further expand our production capacity, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional ethylene from Braskem and PQU. In addition, Petrobras is the principal supplier of naphtha to crackers in Brazil, and any interruption in the

SIZE="2">The international petrochemical market is cyclical in nature, with alternating periods of tight supply, increased prices and high margins, and overcapacity, declining prices and low margins. The decrease in Brazilian tariff rates on
petrochemical products, the increase in demand for such products in Brazil, and the ongoing integration of regional and world markets for commodities, among other factors, have contributed to the increasing integration of the Brazilian petrochemical
industry into the international petrochemical marketplace. As a consequence, events affecting the petrochemical industry worldwide could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. </FONT></P> <P

the past experienced extremely high rates of inflation. Inflation and some of the Brazilian government&#146;s measures taken in an attempt to curb inflation have had significant negative effects on the Brazilian economy. Since the introduction of
the <I>real</I> in 1994, Brazil&#146;s inflation rate has been substantially lower than in previous periods. However, inflationary pressures persist, and actions taken in an effort to curb inflation, coupled with speculation about possible future
governmental actions, have contributed to economic uncertainty in Brazil and heightened volatility in the Brazilian securities market. According to the &Iacute;ndice Geral de Pre&ccedil;os-Mercado, or IGP-M, a general price inflation index, the
Brazilian general price inflation rates were 8.7%, 12.4%, 1.2% and 3.9% in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Brazil may experience

Throughout this period, the Brazilian government has implemented various economic plans and utilized a number of exchange rate policies, including sudden devaluations, periodic mini-devaluations during which the frequency of adjustments has ranged
from daily to monthly, floating exchange rate systems, exchange controls and dual exchange rate markets. Although over long periods depreciation of the Brazilian currency generally has correlated with the rate of inflation in Brazil, devaluation
over shorter periods has resulted in significant fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Brazilian currency and the U.S. dollar and other currencies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

elections and the global economic slowdown. Although the <I>real</I> has appreciated since then (18.2% in 2003, 8.1% in 2004, 11.8% in 2005, 8.7% in 2006 and an additional 4.9% from January to April 2007), no assurance can be given that the
<I>real</I> will not depreciate or be devalued against the U.S. dollar again. See &#147;Item 3.A. Key Information &#151; Selected Consolidated Financial Data &#151; Exchange Rates.&#148; </FONT></P> <P

SIZE="2">Depreciations of the <I>real</I> relative to the U.S. dollar also create additional inflationary pressures in Brazil that may negatively affect us. Depreciations generally curtail access to foreign financial markets and may prompt
government intervention, including recessionary governmental policies. Depreciations also reduce the U.S. dollar value of distributions and dividends on the ADSs and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the market price of our preferred shares and, as a
result, the ADSs. On the other hand, appreciation of the <I>real</I> against the U.S. dollar may lead to a deterioration of the country&#146;s current account and the balance of payments, as well as to a dampening of export-driven growth.

that there will be a serious imbalance in the future, the Brazilian government can impose temporary restrictions on remittances of income on investments by non-Brazilian investors in Brazil. The probability that the Brazilian government might impose
such restrictions is related to the level of the country&#146;s foreign currency reserves, the availability of currency in the foreign exchange markets on the maturity date of a payment, the amount of the Brazilian debt servicing requirement in
relation to the economy as a whole, and the Brazilian policy towards the International Monetary Fund, among other factors. We are unable to give assurances that the Central Bank will not modify its policies or that the Brazilian government will not

Federative Republic of Brazil. We have a significant market presence in the business areas in which we operate. We are the leader in LPG distribution in Brazil through Ultragaz with a 24% market share and one of the largest independent distributors
in the world in terms of volume sold. We deliver LPG to an estimated 10&nbsp;million households using our own vehicle fleet and also approximately 4,000 independent retailers. We are the largest producer of ethylene oxide and its principal
derivatives in South America, with an extensive business in the domestic and international markets. Through Ultracargo, we are a leading provider of integrated logistics for special bulk cargo in Brazil. We offer integrated multimodal
transportation, loading and unloading services and the management of third-party fleets. Our high-storage capacity, together with the strategic location of our assets, facilitates product movement along an integrated multimodal logistics system.
With the acquisition of Ipiranga&#146;s fuel distribution business in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil we became the second largest Brazilian fuel distributor with approximately 15% market share. In 2006, we estimate that the Target

back to 1937, when Ernesto Igel founded Companhia Ultragaz S.A and brought LPG to be used as cooking gas in Brazil using cylinders acquired from Companhia Zeppelin. The gas stove began to replace the traditional wood stove and, to a lesser degree,
kerosene and coal, which dominated Brazilian kitchens at the time. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In 1966, Transultra Armazenamento e Transporte Especializado Ltda, or

specialty chemical production, in the modernization of its industrial plants and in the development of new products. Ultracargo has invested in storage facilities and in the truck fleet in response to strong demand for a better logistics
infrastructure in Brazil, deregulation of the oil and oil products industry and the strong growth in the international trade of vegetable oils and alcohol. We have invested in information technology at all our businesses for integrating processes,

distribution operations of Royal Dutch/Shell N.V. The operations of Shell G&aacute;s have been fully integrated into our LPG distribution business. In addition, we entered the petrochemical production market in Mexico through the acquisition of
CANAMEX, a specialty chemicals company, in December 2003, for $10.3 million, and the acquisition of the operating assets of Rhodia Especialidades Mexico for US$2.7 million in June 2004. In April 2007, we acquired the sulfates and sulfonates
operating assets of Uni&oacute;n Qu&iacute;mica S.A. de C.V., in San Juan del R&iacute;o, Mexico. These investments were motivated by our desire to establish a presence in the Mexican petrochemical market as a platform for production and

investment plan for 2007 has a total budget of R$546 million, R$414 million to be invested in Oxiteno, R$100 million in Ultragaz and R$31 million in Ultracargo. Investments at Oxiteno constitute (i)&nbsp;the completion of the fatty alcohols plant,
whose opening is scheduled for late 2007, (ii)&nbsp;expansion of the ethylene oxide production capacity &#151; a significant part of the expansion in the unit of Mau&aacute; and the start of expansion in Cama&ccedil;ari &#151; and
(iii)&nbsp;expansion in the production capacity of specialty chemicals. At Ultragaz, in addition to the investments started in 2006, other investments will be made in information technology to support its distribution structure review program. At
Ultracargo, investments will be allocated to the expansion of assets, particularly the Aratu terminal in Bahia, which will store palm kernel oil, the main raw material for Oxiteno&#146;s new fatty alcohols plant. Ultracargo will also continue to
invest in information technology. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Investment in fatty alcohols plant</I></B>. On February&nbsp;16, 2005, we announced the investment
in the construction of a fatty alcohols plant, through our subsidiary Oxiteno, with co-production of fatty acids and glycerin. The total investment is estimated to be US$120 million, of which US$34 million had been invested as of December&nbsp;31,
2006. This plant will be a pioneer unit in Latin America for the production of fatty alcohols. Fatty alcohols are raw materials used in the production of specialty chemicals derived from ethylene oxide, widely used in personal care products and for
various applications in domestic cleaning products, agrichemicals and textiles, among others. Fatty alcohols and its derivatives are currently imported and already widely used in Oxiteno&#146;s surfactant line. We are the largest consumer of fatty
alcohols in Brazil and we estimate that 30% of the total volume produced by the new plant will be used by us. Total production capacity should amount to approximately 100,000 tons per year, considering the entire product line. Besides adding value
to the existing surfactants product line, this new plant is expected to generate additional net sales of US$80 million per year when running at full capacity. Oxiteno&#146;s fatty alcohols plant will use vegetable oils as feedstock, especially palm
kernel oil. We expect that the plant will be operational in late 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

for cooking. The use of LPG for domestic heating in Brazil is immaterial compared with its use in other developed and emerging countries, primarily because of Brazil&#146;s generally warm climate. Consequently, consumer seasonality throughout the
year is significantly smaller. In addition, because LPG is not used to a significant extent for domestic heating in Brazil, overall consumption of LPG per capita is lower in Brazil compared to countries where domestic heating is a major element of
LPG demand, making low distribution costs a major competitive differential in the market for Brazilian LPG. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Prior to 1990, extensive
governmental regulation of the LPG industry essentially limited the use of LPG to domestic cooking. Since 1990, regulations have permitted the use of LPG for certain commercial and industrial uses, and the use of LPG has increased accordingly.

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Currently, the LPG distribution industry in Brazil consists of 16 LPG distribution companies or groups of
companies, and is regulated by the National Oil Agency, or ANP, which reports to the Ministry of Mines and Energy. The LPG distribution industry includes purchasing LPG from Petrobras, filling LPG cylinders and bulk delivery trucks at filling
stations, selling LPG to dealers and end users, controlling product quality and providing technical assistance to LPG consumers. See &#147;Item 4.B, Business&#146;s Overview &#151; The role of the ANP.&#148; </FONT></P> <P

Petrobras&#146; production and storage facilities to filling stations maintained by LPG distributors. The balance is imported by Petrobras into Brazil and stored in large storage facilities maintained by Petrobras. The imported LPG is then

at filling stations, transported to customers and pumped into a bulk storage tank located at the customer&#146;s premises. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>The role
of the Brazilian government</I></B>. The Brazilian government historically regulated the sale and distribution of LPG in Brazil. The period from 1960 to 1990 was characterized by heavy governmental regulation, including price controls, regulation of
the areas in which each LPG distributor could operate, regulation of the services offered by distributors and governmental quotas for the LPG sold by distributors, thus restricting the growth of larger LPG distributors. In 1990, the government
started a deregulation process with the purpose of establishing a largely unregulated LPG market. This process included easing the requirements for the entry into the market of new distribution companies, reducing certain administrative burdens and
removing restrictions on the areas in which distributors could conduct their business and on sales quotas. There are currently no restrictions on foreign ownership of LPG companies. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Since May 2001, distributors have been allowed to freely establish retail prices, which were previously set by the government. Until the end of 2001, the
LPG refinery price, which is charged by Petrobras to all LPG distributors, was determined by the government and was the same for all LPG distributors in all regions of Brazil. Historically, refinery prices have been subsidized by the government. In
January 2002, the government abolished subsidies to refinery prices and created a new tax system, the CIDE, which equalized the tax charges on the local market with the imported product in order to open up the market for LPG. Consequently, from
January 2002, Petrobras started to freely price LPG in the domestic market, adopting the international price plus surcharges as its benchmark. However, the Petrobras price of LPG is still subject to government intervention when the government deems
appropriate, such as occurred between August and October of 2002. Prices of LPG in <I>reais</I> have been unchanged since May 2003. In 2006, Petrobras&#146; average refinery price was approximately US$431 per ton compared with the average
international price of US$534 per ton. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>The role of Petrobras</I></B>. Petrobras, Brazil&#146;s national oil and oil products
company, had a legal monopoly in the exploration, production, refining, importing and transporting of crude oil and oil products in Brazil and Brazil&#146;s continental waters since its establishment in 1953. This monopoly was confirmed in
Brazil&#146;s federal constitution enacted in 1988. As a result, Petrobras was historically the sole supplier in Brazil of oil and oil-related products, including naphtha and LPG. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In November 1995, Petrobras&#146; monopoly was removed from the federal constitution by a constitutional
amendment approved by the Brazilian Congress. According to this amendment, other state and private companies would be able to compete with Petrobras in virtually all fields in which Petrobras operated. This amendment was implemented through Law
No.&nbsp;9,478, dated August&nbsp;6, 1997, which effectively allowed Petrobras&#146; monopoly to continue for a maximum period of three years. Law No.&nbsp;9,478 prescribed that the termination of Petrobras&#146; monopoly would be accompanied by the
deregulation of prices for oil, gas and oil products, and created a new regulatory agency, the ANP, to oversee oil-related activities. However, in practice, Petrobras still remains the sole LPG supplier in Brazil, even though there are no legal
restrictions to the operation of other suppliers. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On June&nbsp;25, 2004, Petrobras entered the LPG distribution market in Brazil through

distributors must satisfy regulatory authorities that the operation, maintenance and reclaiming of facilities are in compliance with regulations and are not prejudicial to the environment. In addition, regulations establish standard procedures for

Ultragaz is the leading company by sales volume in the Brazilian LPG market. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultragaz operates nationwide in the distribution of both
bottled and bulk LPG, including the most highly populated states in Brazil, such as S&atilde;o Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Bahia, and sells bottled LPG through its own retail stores and through independent dealers as well as its own truck fleet, which
operates on a door-to-door basis. Bulk LPG is serviced through its own truck fleet. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In August 2003, Ultragaz acquired Shell G&aacute;s,
Royal Dutch/Shell N.V.&#146;s LPG operations in Brazil, for a total price of R$170.6 million. Shell G&aacute;s had about a 4.5% market share in Brazilian LPG distribution, selling approximately 287,400 tons of LPG in 2002. With this acquisition,
Ultragaz has become the Brazilian market leader in LPG with a 24% share of the Brazilian market at the date of the acquisition and has also improved its economies of scale for distribution and reduced its logistics cost. </FONT></P> <P

(National Oil Agency) approved cylinders. In the case of Ultragaz, the cylinders are painted blue, which we believe is an important element in recognizing the &#147;Ultragaz&#148; brand. Ultragaz&#146; operating margins for bottled LPG vary from
region to region and reflect market share and the distribution channel in the region. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Until recently, Ultragaz&#146; sales strategy for
bottled LPG delivery was to increase market share through geographical expansion as well as protecting and incrementing market participation in regions where it already operated. With the acquisition of Shell G&aacute;s, Ultragaz became the
Brazilian market leader in LPG, and the focus of its strategy evolved to investing in the brand and protecting market share. The LPG bottled market in Brazil is a mature one and Ultragaz believes that growth in demand will be a function of an
increasing number of households consuming the product as well as an increasing level of household income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Distribution of bulk LPG is
largely carried out through 190 kg storage tanks installed on its clients&#146; premises. Since 1994, Ultragaz has been investing in small- and medium-sized bulk delivery facilities and in bob-tail trucks, known together as UltraSystem, which
deliver LPG in bulk to commercial clients. Ultragaz&#146; clients in the commercial sector include shopping centers, hotels, residential buildings, restaurants, laundries and hospitals. Ultragaz&#146; trucks supply client&#146;s stationary tanks
using a system that is quick, safe and cost effective. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultragaz&#146; industrial clients consist mostly of companies in the food,
metallurgical, steel and ceramics industries that have large fixed tanks at their plants and consume monthly volumes in excess of 5 tons of LPG. These clients represent a very small portion of Ultragaz&#146; sales volume since, in the case of large
volume consumers, Ultragaz is competing with other highly competitive energy sources such as natural gas. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultragaz supplies its bulk delivery clients on the basis of supply contracts with terms ranging from two
to five years. This type of contract limits fluctuations in sales given that the installation of the tanks is carried out by Ultragaz, and any change in supplier would imply the client&#146;s reimbursing Ultragaz&#146; investments. The contract also
requires that any tank supplied by Ultragaz may only be filled with LPG delivered by the company. When the bulk delivery contract expires, it can be renegotiated or the tank is removed. Since the installation of the tank represents a significant
investment for Ultragaz, it seeks to achieve a return on its investment within the term of the contract. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultragaz&#146; strategy for bulk
LPG distribution is to continue its process of product and service innovation and to increase the profile of its trademark. Ultragaz also has a team to identify the needs of each bulk LPG client and develop practical solutions for using LPG as an

vehicles with Ultragaz&#146; logo. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultragaz delivers bottled LPG using a distribution network, which in 2006 included 84 company-owned
retail stores, and approximately 4,000 independent dealers. In 2006, Ultragaz had a fleet of 661 vehicles for delivering gas cylinders to homes and commercial establishments. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Bottled sales capacity derives from the number of cylinders owned by Ultragaz and the number of cylinders owned by its independent dealers. Ultragaz
estimates that as of December&nbsp;31, 2006, there were some 20&nbsp;million 13kg Ultragaz cylinders in the market. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Independent
dealers</I></B>. Ultragaz&#146; independent distribution network ranges from large dealers, which carry out extensive home delivery, to single retail stores, which sell small quantities of LPG cylinders. Until the enactment of ANP Rule 297 on
November&nbsp;18, 2003, independent dealers needed only to be registered with ANP for the sale of LPG cylinders. No licenses were required except for those required by the fire department and the municipal authorities. Rule 297 established that the
independent dealers must be registered with ANP and comply with a list of prerequisites contained in such rule, as well as those required by law for the storage of cylinders up to 90 kg. Also, each municipality sets forth its own safety regulations
applicable to stores that sell LPG, including a minimum distance from certain locations, such as schools. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, approximately 90% of Ultragaz&#146; bottled LPG sales were made through independent dealers.

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Institute of Industrial Property (INPI &#151; Instituto Nacional de Propriedade Industrial). All contracted dealers are Ultragaz&#146; exclusive
representatives. Under the terms of the respective contracts, each dealer agrees not to deliver non-Ultragaz LPG cylinders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In order to
strengthen the relationship with its network of independent dealers, Ultragaz has created Project SOMAR (Marketing Solutions Applied to Independent Dealers), as part of which it recommends changes to dealers&#146; operating procedures, helps to
improve the efficiency of their operations and encourages their adoption of best practices. Ultragaz believes that improving the efficiency of independent dealers is a key factor in improving the profitability of the distribution chain of LPG.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Distribution channels to bulk consumers</I></B>. Large bulk distribution, classified by Ultragaz as consumption of more than five
tons per month and constituted almost exclusively of industrial users, is made by tanker trucks that deliver the LPG directly to the storage tanks located at the customers&#146; premises. Small bulk distribution, classified by Ultragaz as
consumption of between 0.5 and five tons per month and constituted of commercial users and smaller industrial users, is made primarily by bob-tail trucks, to enable delivery to be made to commercial users whose tanks are not readily accessible by
traditional bulk delivery equipment. Ultragaz uses the UltraSystem trade name in connection with its small bulk distribution through bob-tail trucks. Ultragaz makes bulk sales directly to customers using its own fleet and transportation provided by
Ultracargo and by third-party transportation companies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Payment terms</I></B>. Ultragaz&#146; sales through its retail stores and

STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Cylinder swapping centers</I></B>. Pursuant to the Self-Regulatory Code, the LPG distributors have established sixteen operating swapping centers
to facilitate the return of third-party cylinders to the appropriate distributor. Under the Self-Regulatory Code, while LPG distributors may pick up any empty LPG cylinders tendered by customers in exchange for full LPG cylinders, whether or not
such empty cylinders were put in circulation by that distributor, after October 1997, LPG distributors were not permitted to refill third-party cylinders. Accordingly, LPG distributors may deliver third-party cylinders to a swapping center where
such cylinders may be exchanged for cylinders placed in circulation by such LPG distributor. The swapping centers currently charge a fee of R$0.21 per exchanged LPG cylinder. In areas where only one LPG distributor has a sizable market share, it is
customary to use the facilities of that distributor as an unofficial swapping center for which that distributor may charge an additional fee. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Prior to the establishment of the swapping centers, Ultragaz incurred significant costs associated with the return of its cylinders, as it did not follow the widespread industry practice of filling third-party cylinders. As the swapping
centers&#146; costs are shared amongst LPG distributors, Ultragaz&#146; costs from the return of cylinders were significantly reduced when the swapping centers were created, but have since then increased due to Ultragaz&#146; geographic expansion.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Requalification of cylinders</I></B>. The useful life of a cylinder varies depending on a number of factors, the two most important
of which are the extent to which the cylinder has been exposed to corrosion from the atmosphere and whether the cylinder has been damaged. The Self-Regulatory Code provides that all cylinders must be requalified after their first 15 years&#146; use,
and every ten years thereafter. Each cylinder is visually inspected for damage and corrosion to determine if it can be requalified or if it should be discarded as scrap metal. In the case of cylinders which pass the quality and safety checks,
several procedures are followed before the cylinders are stamped with the year of requalification and the next year in which they are due for requalification. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

LPG from Petrobras are generally common to all LPG distributors, including Ultragaz, which basically consists of sending an estimate of our needs to Petrobr&aacute;s four months in advance and a more precise estimate of our needs one month in
advance. There have been no significant interruptions in the supply of LPG by Petrobras to the distributors with the exception of an interruption in 1995 due to a 15-day strike by Petrobras employees. </FONT></P> <P

Based on its 2006 average LPG sales, Ultragaz could store approximately two days&#146; supply of LPG. Petrobras maintains approximately two days&#146; supply of LPG at its refineries and other facilities. Accordingly, any interruption in the

its LPG sales for each Brazilian geographic region in which it operated. These limits impacted the growth of larger LPG distributors and limited competition among LPG distributors. These restrictions were removed as part of the deregulation process,
resulting in a substantial increase in competition among domestic LPG distributors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The bottled market for LPG is a mature market with
relatively low consumption growth and thus competition is largely based upon attempts by LPG distributors to increase market share at the expense of their competitors. LPG distributors in the bottled market compete primarily on brand awareness and
reliability of delivery and the service provided to customers. Ultragaz believes that it is competitive in these aspects. Since per capita consumption is small, low distribution costs is the critical factor in dictating profitability. Therefore, LPG
distributors largely compete on the basis of efficiencies in distribution and delivery as all LPG distributors currently purchase all of their LPG requirements from Petrobras, and as Petrobras&#146; refinery price charged to the distributors is the
same to all LPG distributors. Ultragaz&#146; principal markets, including the cities of S&atilde;o Paulo, Salvador and Curitiba, contain heavy concentrations of residential consumers and therefore distribution to this market can be carried out with
great economies of scale resulting in lower distribution costs to Ultragaz. Additionally, Ultragaz enjoys low bulk LPG distribution costs through UltraSystem. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition to competing with other LPG distributors, Ultragaz competes with companies that offer
alternative energy sources to LPG, mainly natural gas, and other sources such as wood, diesel, fuel oil and electricity. Natural gas is currently the principal source of energy against which we compete. Natural gas is currently less expensive than
LPG for industrial consumers who purchase large volumes, but more expensive for residential consumers. In addition, supply of natural gas requires significant investments in pipelines. While fuel oil is less expensive than LPG, LPG has performance
and environmental advantages over fuel oil in industrial use. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">From January 2002, the LPG refinery price charged by Petrobras to its
distributors was set at international market levels. This change has meant that domestic prices may be affected by the fluctuations in prices on the overseas market as well as foreign exchange rate variation. The <I>real</I>&#146;s depreciation
against the U.S. dollar increased the ex-refinery price of LPG by approximately 123% in 2002, resulting in a 5% decline in consumption in the Brazilian market in the same year. This increase in LPG prices during 2002 continued to impact sales volume
in 2003, which together with the average loss in disposable incomes in Brazil, translated into a 6% decline. Ultragaz posted a 5% growth in sales volumes during 2003, principally due to the acquisition of the LPG distribution business of Shell in
Brazil in August 2003. Ignoring the additional volume from the acquisition of Shell G&aacute;s, Ultragaz posted an approximately 4% decline in sales volume. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, growth in the Brazilian economy, improvement in
personal incomes among the population and the enhanced stability of the LPG price charged by Petrobras contributed to the increase of the LPG sales in the Brazilian market, which reported an increase of approximately 3% compared to 2003. For this
period, Ultragaz&#146; sales volume increased 14% compared to 2003, due to the acquisition of Shell G&aacute;s in August 2003 and growth in the LPG market. In the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2005, the weaker performance of the Brazilian economy,
driven by high interest rates, led to a 1% decline in both the LPG market and Ultragaz sales. In 2006, the Brazilian LPG market grew by 1%, substantially as a result of the intensification by the Brazilian Government of social programs, which
contributed to an increase in Brazilian income. Additionally, the nationalization of the natural gas reserves in Bolivia generated uncertainties related to the natural gas supply from Bolivia to Brazil. </FONT></P> <P

oil or natural gas into widely used consumer and industrial goods. The Brazilian petrochemical industry is generally divided in three sectors, depending on the stage of transformation of the petrochemical raw material. The companies that operate in
these different stages are known as first, second and third generation companies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>First generation companies</I></B>. Brazil&#146;s
first generation companies, which are referred to as &#147;crackers,&#148; break down or &#147;crack&#148; naphtha (a by-product of the oil refining process), their principal feedstock, into basic petrochemicals. In Brazil, the crackers supply their
naphtha requirements from Petrobras and through imports. Currently, Petrobras is the major Brazilian producer of naphtha. The basic petrochemicals produced by the crackers include olefins, primarily ethylene, propylene and butadiene, and aromatics,
such as benzene, toluene and xylenes. Braskem S.A, Companhia Petroqu&iacute;mica do Sul, known as Copesul, and Petroqu&iacute;mica Uni&atilde;o, known as PQU &#151; Brazil&#146;s three crackers &#151; sell these basic petrochemicals to second

SIZE="2">Oxiteno exports a wide variety of chemical products including glycols, MEK, ethoxylated alkylphenols, glycol ether acetates, glycol ethers, ethanolamines, ethoxylated fatty amines and other ethoxylated products. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">With the acquisition in December 2003 of CANAMEX, a Mexican specialty chemicals company, Oxiteno expects to establish a growing presence in the Mexican
market for specialty chemicals and create a distribution platform for its product sales to the United States. CANAMEX has two production units, manufacturing principally ethoxylates, which were operating at 25% production capacity on the acquisition
date due to serious financial difficulties being faced by CANAMEX. Currently, most of CANAMEX&#146;s sales are destined to the domestic Mexican market, largely for the food, agrichemical, oil and textile segments. The remaining sales volume is
exported, mainly to the United States. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, CANAMEX&#146;s sales volume of 28,461 tons was
incorporated in Oxiteno&#146;s results. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In most cases, Oxiteno&#146;s sales prices for its commodity chemicals in the export markets are
based on international contract prices rather than international spot prices. International contract prices are fixed by reference to published data regarding the price at which industry participants have sold the relevant product. In general,
Oxiteno&#146;s operating margins on products sold in the international market are lower than operating margins for similar products sold in the domestic market. Nevertheless, Oxiteno deems it important to maintain a presence in international
markets. Oxiteno intends to shift sales to the domestic market as local demand for its products increases, but will continue to export and will maintain its presence in the international market. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Customers</I></B>. Oxiteno&#146;s most important customers for its commodity chemicals are chemical companies, surface coating producers and
polyester producers. In turn, the customers for specialty chemicals constitute a variety of industrial and commercial enterprises including brake fluid distributors, agrochemical producers, manufacturers of food additives and manufacturers of
detergents and cosmetics. Oxiteno believes that by distributing its products to a variety of markets it is able to protect itself, to a certain extent, from the effects of a decrease in economic activity in any particular market. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Oxiteno&#146;s principal customers in the domestic market include Mossi-Ghisolfi (formerly Rhodia Ster), which principally purchases ethylene glycols,
Monsanto, which principally purchases ethanolamines, Clariant S.A., which principally purchases ethylene oxide and ethoxylated products, Ind&uacute;strias Gessy Lever Ltda (Unilever), which principally purchases surfactants, and Braskem S.A., which
principally purchases ethylene glycol. In the international market, Oxiteno sells both to industrial customers, including Manufacturas de Fibras Sint&eacute;cticas S.A. (Mafissa), Voridian Argentina S.R.L., Unilever de Argentina S.A. and Cognis
S.A., as well as trading companies and other third-party distributors. Oxiteno&#146;s largest customer in the international market is Oxyde Chemicals, Inc., a major European trading company for glycol, which accounted for approximately 3% of
Oxiteno&#146;s total revenues in 2006. In 2006, Oxiteno&#146;s ten largest customers accounted for 35% of its net sales. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of Oxiteno&#146;s net sales in such year. </FONT></P> <P

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Competition</I></B>. Oxiteno competes in the domestic market largely with imported products. Since
1990, it has had to operate in an increasingly competitive environment due to imports from international and transnational petrochemical industries. As imported products are mostly commodity chemicals, competition is based principally on price.
Importers incur additional costs when selling their products in the Brazilian market, due to import tariffs which generally range between 12% and 14%, and additional freight charges. However, factors such as product quality, timely delivery,
reliability of supply and technical service and support are also important competitive factors. Because it is a local producer, Oxiteno believes it has a particular competitive advantage over imports with regard to timely delivery and reliability of
supply. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the case of specialty chemicals, Oxiteno competes primarily with other Brazilian producers (which buy ethylene oxide from
Oxiteno) and pricing is a less decisive competitive factor than with true commodity chemicals, while conformity with specifications, product performance and reliability of service are comparatively more important. Access to technology, technical
assistance and research and development are important factors with regard to conformity to specifications and product performance, especially in the development of new products to meet customers&#146; needs. Oxiteno&#146;s strategy involves ensuring
access to technology through its own research and development activity, licensing and joint ventures, if appropriate opportunities become available. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Oxiteno&#146;s principal competitors are Shell Brasil Ltda., Exxon Mobil Qu&iacute;mica Ltda., Dow Brasil S.A., Lyondell Qu&iacute;mica do Brasil Ltda., Cognis Brasil Ltda., Clariant S.A. and BASF S.A. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Research and development</I></B>. Oxiteno carries on a wide range of research and development activities, principally related to the application of
specialty chemicals and improvements in production processes. As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, 126 employees of Oxiteno were engaged in research and development and engineering activities. Oxiteno&#146;s research and development expenditures in 2006,
2005 and 2004 were R$18.4 million, R$17.4 million and R$15.4 million, respectively. In 2004, Oxiteno founded its own &#147;Science and Technology Council,&#148; with six of the world&#146;s major specialists in tensoactives being members. The
Council, which first met from December&nbsp;7 to 10, 2004 and again in September 2005 and October 2006, analyzes critically the company&#146;s research and development projects portfolio, as well as the methodology used. These recommendations enable
the company to increase its efficiency in research and development, as well as enlarge its partnerships with international entities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2"><B><I>Raw materials</I></B>. Oxiteno&#146;s principal raw material is ethylene. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, ethylene was responsible for 50% of Oxiteno&#146;s variable costs of production and approximately 44% of its total
cost of sales and services. Among Oxiteno&#146;s other raw materials, the principal include butenes, ethyl, butyl and lauryl alcohols, oxygen and acetic acid. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Supply of ethylene constitutes an entry barrier for new ethylene oxide producers in the country since the current production capacity of ethylene by Brazilian crackers is committed to existing second generation
companies, including Oxiteno, and significant investments are needed for the construction of a new cracker. Ethylene is difficult and expensive to transport and store because it must be kept at a temperature below -200 degrees Fahrenheit (-100
degrees Celsius) during transportation and storage, therefore importing and exporting of ethylene is generally uneconomical. Accordingly, the naphtha crackers, including Braskem and PQU, are largely dependent for their sales upon the second
generation petrochemical companies, such as Oxiteno, located in the respective petrochemical complexes. However, ethylene oxide derivatives are regularly imported by the major international petrochemical companies and by international and domestic
trading companies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Ethylene supply</I>. Ethylene is used for the production of ethylene oxide at the Cama&ccedil;ari plant and the
Mau&aacute; plant. Braskem and PQU supply all of Oxiteno&#146;s ethylene requirements for the Cama&ccedil;ari plant and Mau&aacute; plant, respectively, through pipelines, thus minimizing the costs of delivery of ethylene and helping to ensure the
reliability of supply. See &#147;Item 4.B. Business Overview &#151; Petrochemicals and Chemicals &#151; Overview of the sector and applicable regulations.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In August 2006, Oxiteno signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Braskem amending the existing ethylene supply contract. According to this Memorandum of Understanding, Oxiteno is required to purchase at least 190,000
tons of ethylene per year, and Braskem is required to supply Oxiteno with up to 210,000 during 2007 and 2008. From 2009 to 2021, Braskem is required to supply Oxiteno with up to 265,000 tons of ethylene per year. Prior </FONT>

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">to the signing of this Memorandum of Understanding, Braskem was required to supply Oxiteno with up to 197,000 tons of ethylene per year. The newly agreed

supply from PQU, Oxiteno, like other purchasers from PQU, does not have a formal long-term contract relating to the volume or price of ethylene. However, PQU has made a formal commitment for the ethylene supply volume for Oxiteno. </FONT></P> <P

on Oxiteno&#146;s production. The last unexpected interruption in the ethylene supply was in 1993, due to a pipeline fire that affected the naphtha delivery from Petrobras to Braskem, which caused a shutdown in the naphtha cracking operations,
resulting in a 14-day shutdown in the Cama&ccedil;ari plant&#146;s operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">First generation petrochemical companies undergo scheduled
maintenance stoppages. Oxiteno anticipates these stoppages by building up inventory. Oxiteno also uses these planned stoppages for regular maintenance work on its own plants or eventual substitution of catalysts or for expansion of installed

The price of ethylene supplied by Braskem to Oxiteno for the production of goods to be sold in Brazil is indexed to ethylene prices on international markets as from August 2006. Until July 2006, the price of ethylene supplied by Braskem was
determined by a margin sharing mechanism established in March 1997. Prior to March 1997, the price of ethylene was negotiated between Braskem and its ethylene customers on a monthly basis. </FONT></P> <P

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As naphtha is the main raw material for the production of ethylene in Brazil, fluctuations in the price
of naphtha strongly influence fluctuations in the price of ethylene. Because the main determinant of the price of naphtha is the price of crude oil, the price of naphtha, and thus ethylene, is subject to fluctuations based on changes in the
international oil price. The increases in the price of ethylene could affect Oxiteno&#146;s competitiveness in the petrochemical market. See &#147;Item 3.D. Key Information &#151; Risk Factors &#151; Risks Relating to Ultrapar and Its
Industry.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Other raw materials</I>. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, other raw materials, principally oxygen, lauryl
alcohol, ethanol, C4, butyl alcohol, acetic acid, nonene, phenol, primary fatty amine, fuel oil and LAB accounted for approximately 30% of Oxiteno&#146;s variable costs and 26% of its total costs of sales and services. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Oxiteno generally obtains these other raw materials from a variety of sources, except for phenol, which Oxiteno purchases principally from a single
supplier, Rhodia Poliamida Especialidades Ltda., and for C4, which is supplied by Copesul. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Utilities</I>. Steam, electric power and
natural gas are the main utilities required for Oxiteno&#146;s production. Part of the electricity and steam used by Oxiteno is generated internally and part is purchased from electricity companies and third-party suppliers of steam in the regions
where Oxiteno&#146;s plants are located. Natural gas is purchased from local companies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Tax exemption status</I></B>. Pursuant to
legislation that provides tax relief for industries located in the northeast region of Brazil, Oxiteno benefited from an income tax exemption on operating profits from sales of its products at the Cama&ccedil;ari plant through 2006. In December
2006, the Cama&ccedil;ari plant&#146;s tax exemption expired and a request was filed with ADENE (Northeast Development Agency), the agency in charge of managing this incentive program, seeking a 75% income tax reduction until 2016. The income tax
reduction was approved by ADENE in May 2007, and Oxiteno is waiting for the ruling of the Brazilian Tax Authorities, which has 120 days to make it. After this period, we expect to record the value of the reduction in its financial statements
retroactively to January&nbsp;01, 2007. Tax exemptions amounted to R$40.5 million, R$56.0 million and R$81.9 million for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. We cannot guarantee that there will be no amendments to the
current tax legislation. For further information see Note 21(d) to our consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Maintenance and quality
control</I></B>. Oxiteno carries out a program of preventive maintenance at each of its plants and uses statistical analysis to help predict production problems. The stoppages due to the maintenance program take place at the same time as the
stoppages for the change of the ethylene oxide catalyst. In the case of the ethylene oxide and ethylene glycol units at the Mau&aacute; and Cama&ccedil;ari plants, which have continuous production processes, maintenance is preferably scheduled for
periods when the relevant cracker, which supplies ethylene to the plant, is scheduled to be shut down for maintenance. Each cracker is typically shut down for maintenance for a period of approximately 20 days every 36 to 48 months. The same happens
to the Triunfo plant, which receives butane from Copesul. In the case of the other production units at such plants and the Trememb&eacute; plants, maintenance is performed during scheduled breaks in production. Oxiteno uses its own employees for
specialized maintenance and uses third-party contractors for routine maintenance. In addition, Oxiteno has a team of employees responsible for quality control that operates continuously. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Health, safety and environmental matters</I></B>. Oxiteno continuously monitors its compliance with federal, state and municipal legislation
applicable to its various places of operation. In accordance with applicable law, Oxiteno is strictly liable for losses and damages of an environmental nature. See &#147;Item 4.B. Business Overview &#151; Distribution of Liquefied Petroleum Gas

Ultracargo&#146;s main differentiating characteristic is its integration of different transport modes &#151; road transportation facilities to storage facilities through warehousing at port terminals and rail junctions for the handling of products
that require special handling. Transportation services include integrated multimodal transportation as well as the receiving and dispatching of customer&#146;s goods. Ultracargo also offers ship loading and unloading services, the operation of
pipelines, logistics programming and installation engineering. Ultracargo is one of the few companies in the Brazilian market to offer integrated transport and storage services to special bulk cargo. Ultracargo&#146;s ten largest clients accounted
for 64% of its revenues in 2006, with its three largest clients, Braskem, Ultragaz and Oxiteno accounting for 20%, 9% and 7%, respectively, of Ultracargo&#146;s revenues. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

Decree 96,044/88 and Portaria 204 of the Ministry of Transportation. According to these regulations, a vehicle transporting hazardous materials must have clear indication of what kind of products they are transporting as well as carry symbols
identifying that the material is inflammable. The vehicle is also subject to INMETRO &#151; Instituto Nacional de Metrologia, Normaliza&ccedil;&atilde;o e Qualidade Industrial &#151; inspection every three years in order to attest that it complies
with the current legislation. The regulation also provides specific rules regarding parking, travel itinerary, documentation and emergency procedures. Violations of the legislation are subject to monetary fines and cancellation of the registry for

the storage tanks into a number of filling heads, which deliver the LPG cylinders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The following table sets forth the total storage

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ethylene oxide is primarily an intermediate material used in the production of ethylene oxide
derivatives &#151; only approximately 3% of Oxiteno&#146;s sales volume in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006 were ethylene oxide. Therefore, Oxiteno&#146;s total production output may not be determined by adding the capacities of ethylene oxide
and its derivatives. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As Oxiteno&#146;s capacity for ethylene oxide derivatives exceeds its ethylene oxide production capacity, Oxiteno
cannot produce the maximum amount of each derivative product in any year and, accordingly, actual production of ethylene oxide derivatives is less than its capacity shown in the tables below. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">However, the excess production capacity of ethylene oxide derivatives provides a degree of operating flexibility that enables the company to switch
production partially to other products and re-manage its ethylene oxide output for derivative products depending on relative demand, thus mitigating the effects of reductions in demand for certain products resulting from downturns in the
petrochemical business cycle. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Cama&ccedil;ari plant</I></B>. The Cama&ccedil;ari plant, located in the Northeast Complex, was built

this plant was completed adding 105&nbsp;thousand tons of ethylene oxide production capacity. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Brazilian economic background </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Since most of our operating businesses are located in Brazil, we are significantly affected by Brazil&#146;s economic and social conditions, including, but not limited to, gross domestic product, or GDP, growth rates,
the domestic rate of inflation and exchange rate fluctuations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Gross domestic product</I></B>. In 2002, Brazil&#146;s GDP grew by
1.5%, as a result of the political instability surrounding the presidential elections of October 2002, which caused foreign exchange rate devaluation, and an increase in interest rates, and undermined consumer confidence. In 2003, the GDP grew 0.5%,
largely a reflection of the economic policy of holding the basic interest rate at high levels throughout the year as a means of controlling inflation. As government became more confident regarding inflation trends, interest rates were lowered, and
Brazilian GDP grew by 4.9% in 2004. However, in order to meet inflation targets, the Central Bank increased interest rates again in 2005, and GDP growth decreased to 2.3% in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2005. During 2006, the Brazilian economy
presented the same trend shown in the previous year and GDP grew by 2.9%. Our operations are significantly impacted by Brazilian GDP growth, specifically, sales of LPG to the commercial and industrial customers, Oxiteno&#146;s sales to the domestic
market and Ultracargo&#146;s logistics operations. In addition, sales of LPG to residential customers are affected by the level of household income, which often bears a relation to GDP performance. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Inflation and currency fluctuations</I></B>. Our cash operating expenses are substantially in <I>reais</I> and tend to increase with inflation.
However, a significant portion of our costs of sales and services rendered are linked to the U.S. dollar and are not substantially affected by the Brazilian inflation rate. In addition, some of our <I>real</I>-denominated debt is indexed to take
into account the effects of inflation. In 2002, the inflation rate as measured by the <I>&Iacute;ndice Geral de Pre&ccedil;os &#151; Mercado</I>, or the IGP-M, increased to 25.3%, reflecting the foreign exchange rate devaluation of 52.3%, largely
due to uncertainties and risks inherent in the Brazilian presidential succession campaign. In 2003, the <I>real</I> appreciated 18% against the U.S. dollar, consequently diminishing inflationary pressures and resulting in an IGP-M of 8.7%. In 2004,
the <I>real</I> appreciated further against the U.S. dollar and IGP-M for the year was 12.4%. In 2005 and 2006, the <I>real</I> continued to appreciate against the U.S. dollar, which, together with the increased average interest rates, resulted in
an inflation rate of 1.2% and 3.9%, respectively, as measured by the IGP-M. Future governmental actions, including actions to adjust the value of the <I>real</I> in relation to the dollar, may increase inflation. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The principal foreign exchange risk we face arises from certain U.S. dollar denominated costs and expenses. Although a substantial part of our debt is
dollar-denominated, it is currently hedged against currency devaluation through the use of various derivative instruments or matching investments in the same currency. Additionally, a significant part of our raw materials is also denominated or
indexed to the U.S. dollar. A large part of our sales is denominated in <I>reais</I>, although prices in the chemical business are benchmarked to prices prevailing in the international markets and denominated in U.S. dollars. Hence, we are exposed
to foreign exchange rate risks which could negatively impact our businesses, financial situation and operating results as well as our capacity to service our debt. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

SIZE="2"><B><I>Allowance for doubtful accounts</I></B>. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the subsequent inability of our customers to make required payments. The allowance for doubtful accounts is
recorded in an amount we consider sufficient to cover any probable losses on realization of our accounts receivable from our customers, as well as other receivables, and is included as selling expenses; no adjustment is made to net sales and
services revenue. In order to establish the allowance for doubtful accounts, our management constantly evaluates the amount and characteristics of our accounts receivable. When significant delays occur and the likelihood of receiving these payments
decreases, a provision is made. In case receivables in arrears are guaranteed or there are reasonable grounds to believe they will be paid, no provision is made. If the financial conditions of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an
impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required in future periods. However, because we cannot predict with certainty the future financial stability of our customers, we cannot guarantee that our reserves will
continue to be adequate. Actual credit losses may be greater than the allowance we have established, which could have a significant impact on our selling expenses. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information about
our allowance for doubtful accounts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Deferred Taxes</I></B>. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities which do not expire,
arising from tax loss carry forwards, temporary add-backs, revaluation of property, plant and equipment and other procedures. We periodically review the deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation allowance, as required, based
on historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. In the event we or one of our subsidiaries operate at a loss or are unable to generate sufficient future

of our deferred tax assets, resulting in an increase in our effective tax rate, thereby decreasing net income. If we determine that we can realize a deferred tax in excess of our net recorded amount, we decrease the valuation allowance, thereby
increasing net income. Significant management judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance. The principal uncertainty relates to the likelihood of future taxable income from the subsidiary that generated the deferred tax asset. A
change in our projections of profitability could result in the need to record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, resulting in a negative impact of future results. See Note 21 to our consolidated financial statements for additional

arise from our normal course of business as described in Note 19 to our consolidated financial statements and &#147;Item 8. Financial Information &#151; Legal Proceedings&#148; We believe that the extent to which these contingencies are recognized
in our consolidated financial statements is adequate. It is our policy to record accrued liabilities in regard to contingencies that can be reasonably estimated and could have a material adverse impact on the result of our operations or our
financial condition, to the extent not covered by insurance, and that are likely to occur in the opinion of our management, based on information available to us including information obtained from our legal advisors. Future results of operations for
any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially affected by changes in our assumptions, by the effectiveness of our strategies relating to these proceedings, by future developments in each matter being discussed or by changes in
approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Fair value of financial instruments</I></B>. We
enter into foreign currency swap agreements in order to hedge our foreign exchange exposure. Under Brazilian GAAP, these swap agreements are recorded at their net settlement prices as determined on each balance sheet date in accordance with their
contractual terms. In applying U.S. GAAP to our swap agreements we adopted SFAS 133, &#147;Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.&#148; The accounting required under SFAS 133 is broader than under Brazilian GAAP, especially
with respect to the overall treatment and definition of a derivative, when to record a derivative, the classification of derivatives, and when to designate a derivative as a hedge. Under this method of accounting we adjusted our foreign currency
swaps to their fair values, with changes in fair values being recognized in earnings. Note 24I (i)&nbsp;to our consolidated financial statements provides additional information regarding the accounting of our swap agreements. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In order to estimate fair values, we consider several variables, such as interest rates, discount rates, foreign exchange rates and future cash flows.
Our most important sources of information concerning these variables are the market projections of future exchange and interest rates provided by the Brazilian Mercantile&nbsp;&amp; Future Exchange (BMF). We believe BMF to be the most adequate and
reliable source of information available for our calculations. However, given the volatility inherent in financial markets, estimates concerning the variables used to calculate fair values are subject to constant change. As a consequence, our
judgment related to, among other issues, the behavior of these variables, the selection of sources of information and the timing of calculation, directly affects the fair values of our swaps and the amount of gains or losses recorded in the income
statement under U.S. GAAP. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Effects on Our Future Results of Operations &#151; Acquisition of the Ipiranga Group </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Ipiranga Group operates a network of approximately 4,200 service stations through its operational companies CBPI and DPPI, and an oil refinery,
through its operational company, RPI. It also has a major share of the petrochemical market, with the production of 650,000 tons of petrochemical resins through Ipiranga Petroqu&iacute;mica S.A., or IPQ, as well as joint control with Braskem of
Copesul, Brazil&#146;s second-largest petrochemical raw materials complex. Due to the nature of the fuel distribution business, fuel distributors generally earn lower margins than companies in Ultrapar&#146;s sectors. Thus, Ipiranga&#146;s EBITDA
margins are lower than Ultrapar&#146;s. In 2006 for example, the consolidated net revenues of DPPI totaled R$25 billion, with EBITDA of R$469 million and net income of R$161 million, whereas Ultrapar&#146;s net revenues, EBITDA and net income were
R$4.8 billion, R$516 million and R$282 million, respectively. As Ipiranga&#146;s results will be consolidated into Ultrapar&#146;s following the Acquisition, we expect Ultrapar&#146;s margins will be lower than those reported for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Results of operations </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

subsidiaries, Ultrapar had filed lawsuits questioning the levy of PIS and COFINS taxes on sources of income other than revenues. The Federal Supreme Court ruled in favor of Ultrapar, resulting in the addition of R$49.7 million to the company&#146;s

engaged in research and development and engineering activities. Oxiteno&#146;s research and development expenditures in 2006, 2005 and 2004 were R$18.4 million, R$17.4 million and R$15.4 million, respectively. In 2004, Oxiteno founded its own
&#147;Science and Technology Council&#148; (the &#147;Council&#148;) with six of the world&#146;s major specialists in tensoactives being members. The Council, which first met from December&nbsp;7 to 10, 2004, analyzed critically the company&#146;s
research and development projects&#146; portfolio, as well as the methodology used. Many of these recommendations will enable the company to increase its efficiency in research and development, as well as enlarge its partnerships with international
entities. The Council met again in September 2005 and October 2006. In December 2005, Oxiteno signed a contract with PMD &#151; Project Management and Development Co., or PMD, a private Saudi-Arabian company with their head-office in the industrial
city of Al Jubail, for the license of technologies for the production of ethanolamines and ethoxylates. The technologies licensed by Oxiteno will be used in the petrochemical complex located in Al Jubail, currently being built by PMD. The plants
that will use the Oxiteno technologies will have a production capacity of 100,000 tons/year of ethanolamines and 40,000 tons/year of ethoxylates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>D.

independent, non-executive members and two were executive officers until December 2006. Our Board of Directors generally meets quarterly or whenever called by its chairman or by any two directors. During 2006, ten board meetings were held. Each
meeting of the Board of Directors requires a quorum of a minimum of three members, including the chairman or the vice-chairman. The Board of Directors is responsible for our general policies, for electing our executive officers and supervising their
management, and for deliberating on capital increases up to the authorized capital, distributions of dividends and interest on shareholders&#146; equity, investments in other companies, our dissolution or incorporation and the appointment of
independent auditors. Pursuant to Brazilian law, each member of the Board of Directors must hold at least one of our common or preferred shares and be elected by the holders of our common or preferred shares at the General Shareholders&#146;

capital stocks have the right to elect one member of our Board of Directors. If minority holders of our voting and preferred shares do not reach the minimum percentage required for the right to elect a member of the Board of Directors in the manners
described above, they may jointly elect a single member to the Board. In this case, such shareholders should jointly represent a minimum of 10% of the corporate capital. Until the general shareholders&#146; meeting of 2005, preferred shareholders
had the right to elect a Board member from a short list of three names drawn up by the controlling shareholder. As from the general shareholders&#146; meeting of 2006, the election of this member will be unrestricted. In 2002, we granted our
minority shareholders the right to elect a member of our Board of Directors, a corporate governance change that Brazilian companies were not required to make until 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

Council is a separate corporate body independent of our management and our external independent registered public accounting firm. According to the Brazilian Corporate Law, the Fiscal Council must meet at least four times per year. Since its
establishment, in July 2005, our Fiscal Council has been meeting on a monthly basis, and in 2006, they held thirteen meetings. Our Fiscal Council is responsible for reviewing the accuracy and integrity of quarterly and annual financial statements in
accordance with applicable accounting, internal control and auditing requirements and in compliance with the provisions of Brazilian corporate law; the forms of the CVM and requirements for listing on the BOVESPA; the rules of the SEC and the
requirements for listing on the New York Stock Exchange. Our Fiscal Council also (1)&nbsp;makes recommendations to our board of directors regarding the appointment, retention and oversight of our independent auditors, (2)&nbsp;discusses matters
related to interim and annual financial statements with the management of the company and the independent auditors, (3)&nbsp;reviews and evaluates the performance of internal auditing and (4)&nbsp;discusses matters related to effectiveness of the
internal controls of the company with management and independent auditors. Our Fiscal Council is supporting the implementation by the company of improved procedures for receiving, retaining and addressing complaints regarding accounting, internal
control and auditing matters, including the submission of confidential, anonymous complaints from employees regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters. Our Fiscal Council may hire outside advisors to assist it with matters related to the
course of their duties, and such expenses are covered by the company. The members of our Fiscal Council are elected by our shareholders at the annual general shareholders&#146; meeting for one-year terms and are eligible for reelection. The terms of
the members of our Fiscal Council expire at the next annual general shareholders&#146; meeting. Under the Brazilian Corporation Law, individuals who are members of our board of directors or our board of executive officers or are employees or spouses
or relatives of any member of our management are not eligible to serve on the Fiscal Council. To be eligible to serve on our Fiscal Council, a person must be a resident of Brazil and either a university graduate or has been a company officer or

each participating employee chooses his or her basic contribution to the plan. Each sponsoring company provides a matching contribution in an amount equivalent to each basic contribution, up to a limit of 11% of the employee&#146;s reference salary,
according to the rules of the plan. As participating employees retire, they may choose to receive either (i)&nbsp;a monthly sum ranging between 0.5% and 1.0% of their respective contribution in Ultraprev or (ii)&nbsp;a fixed monthly amount which
will exhaust their respective contribution over a period of 5 to 25 years. The sponsoring company does not guarantee the amounts or the duration of the benefits received by each employee that retires. The total number of participating employees as

with Ultragaz and Ultracargo trucks. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">There are also approximately 100 claims filed by former employees of Ultragaz, regarding bodily harm
suits in which the plaintiffs are claiming damages for the loss of economic benefit and for pain and suffering arising from labor accidents. According to Ultragaz&#146; estimate, our exposure in any individual suit ranges from R$30,000 to R$250,000.
Such amounts are generally covered by Ultragaz&#146; third-party insurance policies, subject to the terms of such policies. For those suits involving death or permanent disabilities, the value of the claim is established by the courts and is based
on the average salary and age of the victim. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultragaz is a defendant in lawsuits relating to damages caused by an explosion in 1996 in a
shopping mall in the city of Osasco, State of S&atilde;o Paulo. These lawsuits involve: (i)&nbsp;individual suits filed by victims of the explosion claiming damages from Ultragaz for the loss of economic benefit and for pain and suffering,
(ii)&nbsp;indemnifications of management of the shopping mall and its insurance company, and (iii)&nbsp;a class action lawsuit seeking indemnification for material damages and pain and suffering for all the victims injured and deceased. Of the 58
lawsuits adjudicated through December 2006, 57 judgments were rendered in our favor, of which 16 have already been dismissed. The one unfavorable decision, which we may appeal, was for damages in the amount of R$17,000. Ultragaz has insurance
coverage for these lawsuits, and the uninsured contingent amount is R$23.6 million. The Company has not recorded any provision for this amount, since it believes the probability of loss is remote. We believe that we have presented evidence that
defective gas pipes in the shopping mall caused the accident and that Ultragaz&#146; on-site LPG storage facilities did not contribute to the explosion. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

obtained injunctions to pay contributions to PIS and COFINS without the changes introduced by Law 9,718 of November&nbsp;28, 1998 in its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of these taxes on sources of income other than
revenues. The unpaid amounts were recorded in our financial statements, totaling R$14.5 million as of December&nbsp;31, 2006. In </FONT>

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">2006 final decisions were rendered in favor of subsidiaries Ultragaz, Transultra-Armazenagem e Transporte Especializado Ltda., Oxiteno and
Ultraqu&iacute;mica Florestal Ltda. (which has been merged into Ultracargo Opera&ccedil;&otilde;es Log&iacute;sticas e Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es Ltda.), and the subsidiaries reversed the existing provisions in the amount of R$15.9 million, R$1.3
million, R$5.7 million and R$0.6 million, respectively, net of attorney&#146;s fees, as financial income in the statement of income for the year. Likewise, a final decision was rendered in the lawsuit related to subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste S.A.
Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio. As this subsidiary had not obtained an injunction, it overpaid PIS and COFINS in prior periods. The amount of R$26.2, related to the favorable outcome of this lawsuit, net of attorney&#146;s fees, was recorded as
financial income and is being used to offset of federal taxes. Although it is a favorable precedent, the decision does not automatically apply to lawsuits filed by other companies, since each company has to await judgment of its own lawsuit. The
Company has other subsidiaries whose lawsuits have not been adjudicated in the amount of R$14.1 million, net of attorney&#146;s fees. Uting&aacute;s has been challenging an ISS (service tax) assessment issued by the municipal government of Santo
Andr&eacute;, in the state of S&atilde;o Paulo. Uting&aacute;s&#146; legal advisors classify the risk as being low, since a significant portion of the lower-court decision on this matter was favorable to Uting&aacute;s. Uting&aacute;s&#146; position
is supported by the opinion of a tax specialist. The updated unprovisioned amount of the contingency as of December&nbsp;31, 2006 was R$33.4 million. We believe that a reserve for a potential loss is not currently necessary. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Oxiteno and its subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste accrued R$15.6 million for ICMS tax assessments that were adjudicated by lower-level administrative courts.
Oxiteno and Oxiteno Nordeste are currently awaiting decision on the appeal. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On October&nbsp;7, 2005, through our indirect subsidiaries in
the LPG business, we filed for and obtained an injunction to support the offset of PIS and COFINS credits against other federal taxes, notably income and social contribution taxes. In accordance with this injunction, these subsidiaries have been
making escrow deposits for these debits and recognizing the corresponding liability for this purpose. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On December&nbsp;29, 2006 the
subsidiaries Oxiteno S.A. Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio, Oxiteno Nordeste S.A. Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio, Companhia Ultragaz and Transultra Armazenamento e Transporte Especializado Ltda filed for an injunction seeking the deduction of
ICMS from their PIS and COFINS tax bases. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ultrapar and its subsidiaries filed a request for injunction seeking not to be subject to the
legislation that restricted the offset of corporate income tax (IRPJ) and social contribution (CSLL) tax loss carryforwards computed through December&nbsp;31, 1994 to 30% of income for the year, as well as petitioning for the full and immediate
utilization of supplementary monetary adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index (IPC)/National Treasury Bonds (BTN) for 1990 (Law No.&nbsp;8.200/91). We believe these to be good precedent for when there is only a postponement of payment of IRPJ
and CSLL for the following years, as is the case with the Company&#146;s subsidiaries. Our legal counsel has advised us that the chances of success of a judicial challenge is possible. The contingency is estimated at R$21.4 million. </FONT></P> <P

administrative proceeding at the SDE (&#147;Secretaria de Direito Econ&ocirc;mico&#148;), one of the Brazilian antitrust authorities, in which they have been accused of engaging in anti-competitive practices in the State of Minas Gerais in 2001. In
September 2005, the SDE issued a technical notice recommending CADE to rule against the companies involved in this proceeding. We believe that there is no evidence to support the allegations of anti-competitive practices. Our defense includes, among
others, that: (i)&nbsp;under the terms of the notice issued by the Company&#146;s chief executive officer on July&nbsp;4, 2000, the subsidiaries&#146; employees were forbidden to discuss with third parties matters related to prices and (ii)&nbsp;no
consistent proof was attached to the proceeding&#146;s records. In view of the arguments presented by Companhia Ultragaz S.A. and SPG&aacute;s Distribuidora de G&aacute;s Ltda., the fact that the technical notice has no binding effect on CADE&#146;s
decision, and our legal counsel&#146;s opinion, the subsidiaries did not record a provision for this issue. Should CADE&#146;s decision be unfavorable, the issue would be brought to judicial courts. </FONT></P> <P

plenary assembly approved a Transaction Reversibility Preservation Agreement (APRO &#150; &#147;Acordo de Preserva&ccedil;&atilde;o de Reversibilidade da Opera&ccedil;&atilde;o&#148;) with Braskem, that set forth that all the assets acquired by
Braskem in the Acquisition will be preserved. With regard to the Ipiraga Group&#146;s fuel distribution business, Petrobr&aacute;s and Ultrapar were requested to present to CADE an alternative management model that would preserve the competition in
the sector. On May&nbsp;16, CADE approved an APRO with Petrobras regarding the fuel distribution business that replaced and revoked the writ of prevention issued on April&nbsp;17, 2007. The APRO requests the nomination of an independent manager to
administrate the distribution business that Petrobras acquired and establishes guidelines for operating the business. The APRO also imposes restrictions on Petrobras including limitations on asset sales, business reorganizations, changes in
commercial policies and lay-offs. The exchange of commercial and strategic data between Ultrapar and Petrobras regarding the fuel distribution business is also restricted in order to protect free competition in the segment. The APRO remains in force
until CADE&#146;s final decision. The APRO does not affect the completion of any of the steps of the Acquisition. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>B. Significant Changes

of June&nbsp;21, 1994, created the Tax on Financial Transactions, or IOF, which may be imposed on any transaction involving bonds and securities, even if the transaction includes Brazilian stock, futures or commodities exchanges. The rate of
IOF/T&iacute;tulos with respect to transactions of preferred shares and ADSs is currently zero, although the executive branch may increase the rate up to 1.5%&nbsp;per day of the terms of the securities, but only with respect to future transactions

currently in effect and changes to any of which may affect the tax consequences described herein, possibly with retroactive effect. In addition, this discussion is based in part on representations of the depositary and assumes that each obligation

SIZE="2">This discussion applies to you only if you are a &#147;U.S. Holder.&#148; For purposes of this discussion, a &#147;U.S. Holder&#148; is a beneficial owner of preferred shares or ADSs that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes (i)&nbsp;a
citizen or resident of the United States of America, (ii)&nbsp;a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation, organized under the laws of the United States of America or any political subdivision thereof or (iii)&nbsp;an estate or trust
the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source. We believe, and this discussion assumes, that we are not, and will not become, a passive foreign investment company (as discussed below). </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In general, U.S. Holders of ADSs will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as owners of the preferred shares underlying the ADSs.
Accordingly, except as noted, the U.S. federal income tax consequences discussed below apply equally to U.S. Holders of ADSs and preferred shares, and references to preferred shares should also be treated as references to ADSs. Exchanges of
preferred shares for ADSs and ADSs for preferred shares will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The U.S. Treasury has expressed
concerns that parties to whom ADSs are pre-released may be taking actions that are inconsistent with the claiming of foreign tax credits by U.S. Holders of ADSs. Such actions would also be inconsistent with claiming the 15% rate applicable to
non-corporate holders. Accordingly, the analysis of the creditability of Brazilian taxes and the availability of the 15% rate received by certain non-corporate holders, each as described below, could be affected by actions that may be taken by the
parties to whom ADSs are pre-released. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Taxation of dividends</I></B>. Distributions paid with respect to preferred shares will be
includable in the income of a U.S. Holder as ordinary dividend income to the extent paid out of current or accumulated earnings and profits of Ultrapar, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Subject to applicable limitations and the
discussion above regarding concerns expressed by the U.S. Treasury, under current law, dividends received by non-corporate U.S. Holders on preferred shares or ADSs may be subject to U.S. federal income tax at lower rates (generally 15%) than other
types of ordinary income. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of this lower tax rate in their particular circumstances. For purposes of these rules, the amount of any distribution of property other than cash
will be the fair market value of such property on the date of distribution. In addition, the taxable amount of any distribution will include the amount of Brazilian tax withheld on the amount distributed, if any, and the amount of a distribution
paid in <I>reais</I> will be measured by reference to the exchange rate for converting <I>reais</I> into U.S. dollars in effect on the date the distribution is received by the depositary, in the case of ADSs, or the U.S. Holder, in the case of
preferred shares directly held by a U.S. Holder. The U.S. Holder may have foreign currency gain or loss if the amount of such dividend is not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of its receipt. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Dividends paid by us generally will be treated as foreign source dividend income to U.S. Holders and will not be eligible for the dividends received
deduction. Subject to certain limitations, and the discussion above regarding concerns expressed by the U.S. Treasury, Brazilian withholding tax, if any, paid in connection with any distribution with respect to preferred shares may be claimed as a
credit against the U.S. federal income tax liability of a U.S. Holder if such U.S. Holder elects for that year to credit all foreign income taxes; otherwise, such Brazilian withholding tax may be taken as a deduction. The limitation on foreign taxes
eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the availability and utilization of the foreign tax credit. </FONT></P> <P

ADS and the U.S. Holder&#146;s tax basis in the preferred share or ADS. The gain or loss will be long term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder&#146;s holding period in the preferred share or ADS exceeds one year. If a Brazilian income tax is
imposed on the sale or disposition of preferred shares or ADS, and the U.S. Holder does not receive significant foreign source income from other sources, the U.S. Holder may not be able effectively to credit such Brazilian tax against its U.S. tax
liability. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal tax treatment of capital gains, which may be taxed at lower rates than ordinary income for individuals, and losses, the deductibility of which is subject to

equity investments) from time to time, there can be no assurance that we will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If we are

Holder&#146;s holding period for the preferred shares. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other exchange and to any year before we become a PFIC will be taxable as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable
year will be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for that year for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, and an interest charge will be imposed on the amount allocated to such taxable year. Further, any distribution in respect of the
preferred shares or ADSs in excess of 125 percent of the average of the annual distributions on preferred shares or ADSs received by the U.S. Holder during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder&#146;s holding period, whichever is shorter,
will be subject to taxation as described above. Certain elections may be available (including a mark-to-market election) to U.S. persons that may mitigate the adverse consequences resulting from PFIC status. </FONT></P> <P

withholding and information reporting</I></B>. Payment of dividends and other proceeds in connection with the preferred shares or ADSs made within the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries generally are subject to

withholding, provides a taxpayer identification number on a properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or a substitute form and certifies that no loss of exemption from backup withholding has occurred. The amount of any backup withholding
is creditable against the U.S. Holder&#146;s federal income tax liability and may entitle the U.S. Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service. </FONT></P> <P

modified to cover all our employees. The objective of this code is (i)&nbsp;to reduce the subjectivity of personal interpretations of ethical principles; (ii)&nbsp;to be a formal and institutional benchmark for the professional conduct of the
employees, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interests, becoming a standard for the internal and external relationship of the Company with its stakeholders, namely: shareholders, clients, employees, partners,

Inc. were invested in certificates of deposit (Dual Currency Deposits) denominated in U.S. dollars issued by foreign banks of good standing. Dual Currency Deposits are investments of the subsidiary Oxiteno Overseas Corp., whose yield can be in US
dollars or Brazilian reais, depending on the US dollar rate as of the maturity date. If the US dollar rate is lower than the strike rate on the maturity date, the yield of this operation will be in US dollars plus interest of 7.5%&nbsp;per year;
otherwise, it will be in Brazilian reais plus average interest of 26%&nbsp;per year. The subsidiary records the investment at the lower of the two alternative yields, which in 2006 was represented by the US dollar. In 2006 the exchange rate always
remained below the strike rate. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Long-term investments are mainly represented by a debt security of an European corporation denominated in

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The increase in the balance of recoverable taxes is mainly due to the increase in ICMS credits of
the Cama&ccedil;ari (Bahia State) plant of the subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste S.A .- Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio and the credit of PIS and COFINS recorded by this same subsidiary. The increase in this plant&#146;s ICMS balance occurred mainly in
the second half of 2006, due to measures by Bahia State, which made it difficult to utilize credits for import payment or to transfer them to third parties. The total balance of credits from the Cama&ccedil;ari plant corresponds to R$50.2 as of
December&nbsp;31, 2006 (R$22.0 in 2005) of which R$22.8 have already been reviewed by the tax authorities and are awaiting release by the state finance department of Bahia for commercialization. In addition to these credits, the subsidiary&#146;s
management is working on a series of measures for realization of the plant&#146;s ICMS balance. The allowance for loss of the plant&#146;s credits was recognized on the basis of the maximum discount expected on their commercialization. The PIS and
COFINS credits arose from the favorable outcome of a lawsuit and can be utilized to offset other federal taxes, as mentioned in Note 19.a). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:18px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

Labor Union, of which the employees of Oxiteno Nordeste S.A.&#151;Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio are members, filed a lawsuit against the subsidiary in 1990, demanding compliance with the adjustments established in collective labor agreement, in
lieu of the salary policies effectively followed. At the same time, the employers&#146; association proposed a collective bargaining for the interpretation and clarification of the fourth clause of the agreement. Based on the opinion of its legal
counsel, who analyzed the last decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) on the collective bargaining, as well as the status of the individual lawsuit of the subsidiary, management believes that an accrual for a potential loss is not necessary as
of December&nbsp;31, 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The subsidiaries Companhia Ultragaz S.A. and SPG&aacute;s Distribuidora de G&aacute;s Ltda. are parties to an
administrative proceeding at the SDE (Economic Law Department), linked to CADE (Administrative Council for Economic Defense), under the allegation of anticompetitive practice in certain municipalities of the State of Minas Gerais in 2001. In
September 2005, the SDE issued a technical notice recommending to CADE a ruling against the companies involved in this proceeding. In their defense, the subsidiaries&#146; arguments, among others, are that: (i)&nbsp;under the terms of the notice
issued by the Company&#146;s chief executive officer on July&nbsp;4, 2000, the subsidiaries&#146; employees were forbidden to discuss with third parties matters related to prices; and (ii)&nbsp;no consistent proof was attached to the
proceeding&#146;s records. In view of the arguments presented, the fact that the technical notice has no binding effect on CADE&#146;s decision, and their legal counsel&#146;s opinion, the subsidiaries did not record a provision for this issue.
Should CADE&#146;s decision be unfavorable, the subsidiaries could still discuss the issue at the judicial level. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The subsidiary Companhia
Ultragaz S.A. is a defendant in lawsuits relating to damages caused by an explosion in 1996 in a shopping mall in the city of Osasco, State of S&atilde;o Paulo. Such lawsuits involve: (i)&nbsp;individual suits filed by victims of the explosion
claiming damages from Ultragaz for the loss of economic benefit and for pain and suffering, (ii)&nbsp;reimbursement of expenses from management of the shopping mall and its insurance company, and (iii)&nbsp;a class action lawsuit seeking
indemnification for material damages and pain and suffering for all the victims injured and deceased. The subsidiary believes that it has presented evidence that defective gas pipes in the shopping mall caused the accident and that Ultragaz&#146;s
on-site LPG storage facilities did not contribute to the explosion. Of the 58 lawsuits judged thus far, a favorable judgment was obtained for 57, and of these 16 have already been dismissed; only 1 had an unfavorable decision, which is still subject
to appeal, and whose amount, should the decision be upheld, is seventeen thousands reais. Two lawsuits have not yet been judged. The subsidiary has insurance coverage for these lawsuits, and the uninsured contingent amount is R$23.6. The Company has
not recorded any provision for this amount, since it believes the probability of loss is remote. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company and its subsidiaries obtained
injunctions to pay PIS and COFINS (taxes on revenues) without the changes introduced by Law No.&nbsp;9718/98 in its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of these taxes on sources of income other than revenues. The unpaid
amounts were recorded in the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, totaling R$14.5 as of December&nbsp;31, 2006 (R$37.0 in 2005). Recently the STF has decided the matter favorable to the taxpayer. Although it is a precedent, the
effect of this decision does not automatically apply to all the companies, since they have to await judgment of their own lawsuit. In 2006 final decisions were rendered on the lawsuits of subsidiaries Companhia Ultragaz S.A.,
Transultra&#151;Armazenagem e Transporte Especializado Ltda., Oxiteno S.A Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio and Ultraqu&iacute;mica Florestal Ltda. (company merged into Ultracargo Opera&ccedil;&otilde;es Log&iacute;sticas e
Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es Ltda.), and the subsidiaries reversed the existing provisions in the amount of R$15.9, R$1.3, R$5.7 and R$0.6, respectively, net of attorney&#146;s fees, as financial income in the statement of income for the year.
Likewise, a final decision was rendered on the lawsuit related to subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste S.A. Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio. As this subsidiary had not obtained an injunction, it paid undue PIS and COFINS in prior periods. The amount of
R$26.2, related to the favorable outcome in this lawsuit, net of attorney&#146;s fees, was recorded as financial income and is being used for offset of federal taxes. The Company has other subsidiaries whose lawsuits have not yet been judged in the
amount of R$14.1, net of attorney&#146;s fees. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company&#146;s subsidiary Oxiteno S.A.&#151;Ind&uacute;stria e Com&eacute;rcio and its

Tax) tax assessments issued by the municipal government of Santo Andr&eacute;. Legal counsel of the subsidiary classifies the risk as low, since a significant portion of the lower-court decisions was favorable to the subsidiary. The thesis defended
by the subsidiary is supported by the opinion of a renowned tax specialist. The unprovisioned updated amount of the contingency as of December&nbsp;31, 2006 is R$33.4 (R$30.0 as of December&nbsp;31, 2005). </FONT></P> <P

and COFINS credits against other federal taxes administered by the Federal Revenue Service (SRF), notably corporate income tax and social contribution taxes. According to the injunction obtained, the subsidiaries have been making escrow deposits for
these debits and recognizing the corresponding liability for this purpose. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On December&nbsp;29, 2006 the subsidiaries Oxiteno S.A

COFINS tax basis. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company and its subsidiaries filed a request for injunction seeking not to be subject to the legislation that
restricted the offset of corporate income tax (IRPJ) and social contribution (CSLL) tax loss carryforwards computed through December&nbsp;31, 1994 to 30% of income for the year, as well as petitioning the full and immediate utilization of
supplementary monetary adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index (IPC)/National Treasury Bonds (BTN) for 1990 (Law No.&nbsp;8.200/91). There are good precedents for these discussions when it is proven that there was only a postponement of payment
of IRPJ and CSLL to the following years, as is the case of the Company&#146;s subsidiaries, and legal counsel understands that the chances of success of the challenge in the judicial sphere is possible. The contingency is estimated at R$21.4.

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under accounting practices adopted in Brazil, the Company used the accrue-in-advance method of accounting for planned major maintenance activities until January&nbsp;1, 2006. In accordance with the provisions
contained in CVM Resolution No.&nbsp;489, dated of October&nbsp;3, 2005 and the Accounting Pronouncement and Standard-NPC 22 about Provisions, Liabilities and Contingencies, issued by the Brazilian Institute of Independent Auditors&#151;IBRACON, the
accrue-in-advance method of accounting for planned major maintenance was prohibited to be used as from January&nbsp;1, 2006. As a result, as from January&nbsp;1, 2006, the Company changed its accounting principle in regards to planned major
maintenance activities and selected to use the deferral method by which the Company capitalizes the amounts expended on the planned major maintenance activities and amortizes them through the period to the next planned major maintenance. The effect
of such change in accounting principle is recorded as a prior year adjustment to retained earnings as of January&nbsp;1, 2006 not restating prior periods. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT

practices adopted in Brazil, the Company early adopted the FSP AUG AIR&#151;Accounting for Planned Maintenance Activities as of January&nbsp;1, 2006. As a result, as from January&nbsp;1, 2006, the Company changed its accounting principle in regards
to planned major maintenance activities and selected to use the deferral method consistently with accounting principles adopted in Brazil. The Company applied the FSP guidance and SFAS No.&nbsp;154 &#147;Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections&#148; to record retrospectively the effect of the change in accounting principle for all periods presented. All effects related to this matter concerns the chemical segment. The table below summarizes this change in accounting

subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment. These laws generally provide for control of air and effluent emissions and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites.
Civil penalties may be imposed for noncompliance. The Company provides for remediation costs and penalties when a loss is probable and the amount is reasonably determinable. It is not presently possible to estimate the amount of all remediation
costs that might be incurred or penalties that may be imposed; however, management does not presently expect that such costs and penalties will have a material effect on the Company&#146;s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Recurring costs associated with managing hazardous substances and pollution in on-going operations, mainly composed of costs for treatment of effluents and for incinerations, amounted to R$4.4, R$3.6 and R$2.7 for the years ended December&nbsp;31,
2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Capital expenditures to limit or monitor hazardous substances and pollutants amounted to R$5.0, R$8.3 and R$4.2 for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. </FONT></P> <P

the growth of its business, based on investments in differentiated products, access to competitive raw materials and increase of the operational leverage. At Oxiteno, ongoing expansion projects of over US$&nbsp;320&nbsp;million, including the first
fatty alcohol production unit in Latin America and a 40% increase in the production capacity of ethylene oxide and other specialty chemicals, will enable increased sales volumes and a growing operational leverage. Additionally, Oxiteno will continue
its internalization process, particularly strengthening its leadership in the Americas whether by opening commercial offices or through acquisitions. At Ultragaz we have planned to invest R$ 50&nbsp;million to strengthen our position in
Brazil&#146;s North and Northeast, selling LPG in certain states where the potential market growth is above the country&#146;s average. At Ultracargo we will invest about R$ 110&nbsp;million between 2008-09 to expand its current liquid storage
capacity by 35% due to the increase in the demand for logistics infrastructure in Brazil, which is related mainly to biofuels and the foreign trade flow. At Ipiranga we will continue to implement our business plan, which is based on enhancing the
investment capacity and significantly increasing volumes, thus generating a growing operational leverage. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the event that the Share
Exchange Transactions are approved and, after the expiration of the legal period, RPI&#146;s, DPPI&#146;s, CBPI&#146;s and Ultrapar&#146;s shareholders, as applicable, do not reconsider the Share Exchange Transactions, it is expected that:
(a)&nbsp;a capital reduction will be performed at RPI and CBPI in order to transfer directly to Ultrapar the petrochemical assets, represented by shares in Ipiranga Qu&iacute;mica S.A., to be subsequently delivered to Braskem and Petrobras pursuant
to the Investment Agreement; and (b)&nbsp;CBPI will be split in order to transfer the fuel and lubricant distribution businesses located in the Northern, Northeastern and Midwestern regions to a company controlled by Petrobras. </FONT></P> <P

the meeting was to deliberate on the exchange of shares issued by Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (&#147;<I>RPI</I>&#148;), by Distribuidora de Produtos de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. (&#147;<I>DPPI</I>&#148;) and by Companhia
Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga (&#147;<I>CBPI</I>&#148;) by ULTRAPAR (&#147;<I>Share Exchange</I>&#148;). The members of the Board of Directors recognized that the Share Exchange is of the interest of ULTRAPAR and its shareholders, in order
to simplify the corporate structure of the Ipiranga Group, concentrating all the shareholders into one publicly-traded company, allowing an alignment of all the shareholders&#146; interests, increasing the market capitalization and share liquidity
of ULTRAPAR and the participation of the shareholders of RPI, DPPI and CBPI in a company that is recognized for its high standards of corporate governance. After the presentation of the necessary clarifications by the Executive Officers, and
receiving a favourable opinion from the Fiscal Council for the Share Exchange, the members of the Board of Directors examined and discussed the documents presented by the directors including the &#147;Protocol and Justification for the Exchange of
Share issued by Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. by Ultrapar Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es S.A.&#148;, the &#147;Protocol and Justification for the Exchange of Shares issued by Distribuidora de Produtos de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. by
Ultrapar Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es S.A.&#148;, the &#147;Protocol and Justification for the Exchange of Shares issued by Companhia Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga by Ultrapar Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es S.A.&#148; and the documents
referring to therein. In particular, considering the position of certain minority shareholders with regard to the intended Share Exchange, they carefully examined and discussed the reports prepared by Deutsche Bank and Credit Suisse according to
which RPI, DPPI, CBPI and ULTRAPAR were evaluated in order to establish the exchange ratio between the shares of RPI, DPPI, CBPI and ULTRAPAR. Based on this examination and discussion, the board members concluded that, in their best judgement, such
reports were prepared according to the concepts and assumptions which these banks used freely and independently in the exercising of their tasks. Thus, exercising their fiduciary duty in the fulfilment of their responsibilities, under the terms of
articles 153, 154 and 155 of Law N&ordm; 6.404/76, and having verified that the documents referred to below and the Share Exchange conform to legal and statutory requirements, decided to submit the proposal for the Share Exchange to the shareholders
of ULTRAPAR under the terms and conditions of the &#147;Protocol and Justification for the Exchange of Shares issued by Refinaria de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga S.A. by Ultrapar Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es S.A.&#148;, and its annexes, signed by the

Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es S.A. (&#147;<I>ULTRAPAR</I>&#148;) (&#147;Share Exchange&#148;). The members of the Board of Directors recognize the Share Exchange is of the interest of CBPI, which will be strengthened together with the other companies
of the Ipiranga Group, and their shareholders, in order to simplify the corporate structure of the Ipiranga Group, concentrating all the shares into one publicly-traded company, permitting an alignment of all its shareholders&#146; interests,
increasing market capitalization and share liquidity and participating in a company recognized for its high standards of corporate governance. After the presentation of the necessary clarifications by the Executive Officers, the members of the Board
of Directors examined and discussed the documents sent by the executive officers, including the &#147;Protocol and Justification for the Exchange of the Shares Issued by Companhia Brasileira de Petr&oacute;leo Ipiranga by Ultrapar
Participa&ccedil;&otilde;es S.A.&#148; and the documents referred to therein. In particular, considering the position of some minority shareholders considering the intended Share Exchange, they carefully examined and discussed the results of the
valuation reports prepared by Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (&#147;Deutsche Bank&#148;) and Credit Suisse according to which CBPI and ULTRAPAR were valuated in order to establish the exchange ratio between the shares of CBPI and ULTRAPAR. Although
the members of the Board had previously discussed with Credit Suisse, they requested additional clarifications to Credit Suisse representatives related to the final version of the document. Subsequently, the members of the Board inquired of the
representatives of Credit Suisse, Apsis and KPMG if they, as specialists on this subject, considered all the pertinent legal requirements on the elaboration of their respective valuation reports, in particular Brazilian Corporate Law, regulations of
the CVM (Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission) and generally accepted accounting practices, to which the representatives of the three companies each individually confirmed the complete conformity of their respective valuation reports to the
legal precepts applicable, with the representatives of Credit Suisse in addition confirming, based on the valuation that they had prepared, that the exchange ratio offered for the Share Exchange is appropriate. . Based on this examination and
discussion and also considering the discussion at the meeting of the Board of Directors on November&nbsp;6, 2007, during which the representatives of Credit Suisse answered to queries and clarified questions of the members present, in accordance
with the minutes of such meeting, the members concluded, in their best judgement, that these valuation reports were prepared according to the concepts and assumptions which these banks used freely and independently in the exercising of their tasks.
Thus, exercising their fiduciary duty in the fulfilment of their responsibilities, under the terms of articles 153, 154 and 155 of Law N&ordm; 6.404/76, and having </FONT>

identified related to the Ipiranga trademark and the franchise agreements relevant to the Southern Distribution Business. The fair values attributed to the Ipiranga trademark and to the franchise agreements were R$413 million and R$95 million,
respectively. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The methodology used to calculate the fair value of the Ipiranga trademark was the &#147;Relief-from-Royalty&#148; approach.
According to this methodology, the fair value of the trademark arises from the incremental cash flow after taxes derived from the fact that the Company is not required to pay royalties to a third party, as it owns the intellectual property rights.
The royalty rate was determined based on royalty analysis in comparable companies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The methodology used to calculate the fair value of the

SFAS 133 &#147;Accounting for derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities&#148; because they will be physically settled and the underlying shares of IQ are not publicly traded, failing to meet conditions of net settlement in paragraph 6.c. and
paragraph 9 of SFAS 133. The Company also concluded that the warrants are not under the scope of EITF 96-11 &#147;Accounting for Forward Contracts and Purchased Options to Acquire Securities Covered by FASB Statement No.&nbsp;115,&#148; because the
underlying shares have no readily determinable market value and are not within the scope of SFAS 115 &#147;Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.&#148; In addition, the Company considered whether the warrants meet the
conditions of in-substance common stock under EITF 02-14 &#147;Whether an Investor Should Apply the Equity Method of Accounting to Investments Other Than Common Stock,&#148; and concluded that the warrants do not carry the risk and rewards of
ownership. Finally, absent any applicable literature, the Company concluded that the warrants should be initially recorded at their fair value and not marked to market, but subject to potential other-than-temporary impairments. This accounting is
supported by the guidance in Question #4 in &#147;Q&amp;A 115&#150;A Guide to Implementation of Statement 115 on Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities: Questions and Answers.&#148; The reconciliations of CBPI and DPPI were
