Considerations on the financial and operational information
Standards and criteria adopted in preparing the information
Ultrapar's financial statements for the quarter ending March 31st, 2009 were prepared in accordance with the accounting directives set out in the Brazilian Corporate Law being adopted the alterations introduced by Law 11,638/07, Provisional Measure 449/08, as well as the CVM standards, instructions and guidelines, which regulate them. In order to provide comparability of financial statements, the figures presented in this document for the first and fourth quarters of 2008 consider such changes and, therefore, are different from the figures previously reported in the respective results release. In order to provide a better understanding of the effects of the new legislation, it is presented on pages 13 and 14 a statement with the impacts derived from the changes introduced by Law 11,638/07 and Provisional Measure 449/08 in the main accounts of the financial statements in the first and fourth quarters of 2008, compared to the figures previously reported. Additional information regarding effects of the new legislation are available on the accompanying notes 2 and 3 of the audited financial statements for the year ended on December 31st, 2008 and financial statements for the quarter ended on March 31st, 2009, both available at Ultrapar’s website (www.ultra.com.br).
Separately, Ultragaz reclassified the volumes sold between the bottle and bulk segments to reflect the current structure and management responsibility between geographies and segments. This reclassification between segments corresponds to approximately 1% of Ultragaz’s total volume and net sales in 2008. In order to provide comparability, Ultragaz’s information on volume and net sales for the bottled and bulk segments presented in this document and in the company’s website were reclassified retroactively to 1Q08 based on the new criteria adopted.
Effect of the acquisition of União Terminais
In June 2008, Ultrapar, through Ultracargo, signed the sale and purchase agreement for the acquisition of 100% shares of União Terminais e Armazéns Gerais Ltda., a company involved in the storage and handling of bulk liquids, previously held by Unipar – União das Indústrias Petroquímicas S.A. with operations in the ports located in Santos (in the state of São Paulo), Rio de Janeiro and Paranaguá (in the state of Paraná - through a 50% stake in União/Vopak Armazéns Gerais Ltda.). In October 2008, Ultrapar announced to the market that it had closed the purchase of the port terminals in Santos and Rio de Janeiro and, in November 2008, the closing of the acquisition of the port terminal in Paranaguá. The results of the businesses acquired were consolidated in Ultrapar's financial statements after their respective closing dates. Ultrapar's financial statements in periods prior to 4Q08 do not include the results of the businesses acquired. The total acquisition amounted to R$ 519 million, including in this figure the assumption of R$ 32 million in net debt.
Effect of the acquisition of Texaco
In August 2008, Ultrapar announced the signing of the sale and purchase agreement for the acquisition of Texaco’s fuel distribution business in Brazil. On March 31st, 2009, Ultrapar closed the acquisition of Texaco through the disbursement of R$ 1,106 million, in addition to the US$ 38 million deposit made to Chevron in August 2008. The results of the business acquired will be consolidated in Ultrapar's financial statements from April 1st, 2009 on.

Highlights

| Ø | Closing of Texaco’s acquisition – On March 31st, 2009, Ultrapar closed, through its subsidiary Sociedade Brasileira de Participações Ltda., the acquisition of 100% of the shares of Chevron Brasil Ltda. (“CBL”) and Sociedade Anônima de Óleo Galena Signal (“Galena”), subsidiaries of Chevron Latin America Marketing LLC and Chevron Amazonas LLC (together “Chevron”) that held the Texaco-branded fuels marketing business in Brazil (“Texaco”). Prior to the closing, Chevron’s lubricant and oil exploration activities in Brazil were spun-off from CBL and Galena to other Chevron’s legal entities.

| Ø | Acquisition value – The amount disbursed on March 31st, 2009 was R$ 1,106 million, in addition to the US$ 38 million deposit made to Chevron on August 2008. The terms of the acquisition do not include the assumption of Texaco’s net debt. Working capital adjustments or any net debt that might exist on March 31st, 2009 will be verified within 60 days, and will be settled with Chevron thereafter.

| Ø | Strategic rationale and expected benefits - Texaco’s acquisition is part of Ultrapar’s strategy to increase its operational scale in the fuels marketing business and expand its operations to the Mid-West, Northeast and North regions of Brazil. In 2008 Texaco sold 7 million cubic meters of diesel, gasoline, ethanol and natural gas for vehicles, which represented an approximately 8% market share in Brazil. The combination with Texaco will create a nationwide fuels marketing business, with a network of more than five thousand service stations and approximately 22% market share, strengthening its competitiveness through the increase of the operational scale and the implementation of Ipiranga’s business model in the combined network, with a broad range of products and services availability at the service stations which benefits consumers and resellers. Through these elements, Ultrapar aims to generate profitability in the combined business at least at the current levels of Ipiranga, which, in 2008, reported EBITDA of R$ 50/m³. Additionally, the acquisition of Texaco leaves Ipiranga in a better position to grow, initiating its expansion into the Mid-West, Northeast and North regions of Brazil, regions with fuel consumption growth above the national average, and brings new commercial opportunities arising from the nationwide coverage.

| Ø | Identification of the Ipiranga brand in the acquired network – On April 1st, 2009, when we started to manage and consolidate Texaco’s results, we have also started the process of converting the acquired network to the Ipiranga brand. The process consists of altering the visual identity of the Texaco’s service stations to Ipiranga’s standards, by painting, replacing banners and logos, among others. Image substitution costs are estimated at approximately R$ 35 thousand per service station, about 30% less than initially expected, also allowing the conversions to be completed sooner and accelerating the process of implementing Ipiranga’s business model in the acquired network. About one thousand service stations of the acquired network, representing about 75% of Texaco service stations in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil, are expected to have their brands switched to Ipiranga’s during 2009. Part of these disbursements, originally wholly included in Ipiranga’s 2009 investment budget of R$ 239 million, will be recorded as expenses, with an estimated effect of R$ 32 million in 2009. Therefore, Ipiranga’s and Ultrapar’s initially expected investments were reduced by R$ 32 million, and the investment budget for the year 2009 will then be R$ 207 million for Ipiranga and R$ 496 million for Ultrapar.

Executive Summary of the Results for the Quarter

During the first quarter 2009, the worsening of the global crisis and its consequences on credit availability, consumers’ confidence and foreign demand continued to affect the Brazilian economy. This downturn could be seen in the three economic sectors, particularly industry, reflecting the continued adjustments of inventory levels to the new economic reality. On the other hand, measures have been taken to minimize the effects of the crisis in Brazil, through monetary policy actions that culminated in a cumulative 2.5% decrease in the Selic rate, currently at 10.25%, in the last two meetings of the Monetary Policy Committee of the Central Bank of Brazil (COPOM), and tax policy actions, such as the tax reduction for vehicles (IPI), positively impacting the automotive industry. The global economic crisis also continued to affect commodities prices, notably oil prices, which remained below US$ 50/barrel during 1Q09, and foreign capital flow, resulting in an average exchange rate of R$ 2.31/US$ in 1Q09, a 33% depreciation compared to the average exchange rate in 1Q08.
IPI tax reduction for vehicles was the key driver for the 4% growth in the number of light vehicles registered in 1Q09 compared to the same period in 2008, thus keeping last year’s fleet growth pace. This growth and the improvements in legislation and inspection of the fuel sector contributed to the 9% growth in Ipiranga’s combined sales of fuel for passenger cars (gasoline, ethanol and NGV) in the first quarter 2009. Diesel sales, in turn, which are strongly correlated to economic performance, reduced by 3%. The strong growth in sales of fuel for passenger cars combined with lower diesel sales resulted in a 2% increase in Ipiranga’s total sales. Ipiranga’s EBITDA amounted to R$ 144 million in 1Q09, 11% higher than that reported in 1Q08.
In the first quarter 2009, Ultragaz's sales volume remained almost stable compared to the same period of 2008, with a 1.5% increase in sales volume in the bottled segment, offset by a 5.0% reduction in the bulk segment, derived from the lower level of economic activity in 1Q09. Despite the sales volume stability, cost and expense reduction initiatives implemented by Ultragaz in the last 12 months allowed its EBITDA to reach R$ 52 million in 1Q09, 29% higher than that of the 1Q08.
Oxiteno reported a 9% decrease in sales volumes for 1Q09 compared to 1Q08 as a result of the de-stocking process in the value chain in many sectors of the economy and higher glycol sales in 1Q08. EBITDA totalled R$ 46 million in 1Q09, a 2% decrease compared to the same period of the previous year due to lower sales, higher costs and expenses resulting from expansions, and historical costs of goods sold significantly higher than current replacement costs. Oxiteno estimates that the effect arising from the difference between historical and replacement costs was R$ 33 million.
Ultracargo reported a 46% increase in effective storage compared to 1Q08, result of the consolidation of União Terminais from 4Q08 and the expansion of the Aratu terminal. As a consequence, EBITDA in 1Q09 reached R$ 24 million, 137% higher than that reported in 1Q08.
Ultrapar’s consolidated EBITDA totalled R$ 274 million, a 21% increase compared to 1Q08, as a result of the increases in Ipiranga’s, Ultragaz’s and Ultracargo’s EBITDA. Net earnings for 1Q09 reached R$ 91 million, in line with the net earnings for 1Q08.

Operational Performance

Ultragaz – According to the Brazilian National Oil Agency (ANP), the Brazilian LPG market decreased by 3.0% in 1Q09 compared to the same period of the previous year. In 1Q09, Ultragaz's sales volume reached 364 thousand tons, a 0.5% decrease in comparison to 1Q08. In the bottled segment, Ultragaz’s sales volume amounted to 257 thousand tons, 1.5% higher than the figure in 1Q08. The growth in the bottled segment for 1Q09 is similar to that of recent quarters and was the result (i) of the resilient demand in the segment, as it is good of first necessity, and (ii) of commercial initiatives implemented by the company, including new markets. Ultragaz's sales in the bulk segment (UltraSystem) decreased by 5.0% in 1Q09, reflecting the lower level of economic activity in 1Q09. Compared to 4Q08, Ultragaz's sales volume decreased by 6.9%, mainly as a consequence of seasonality between quarters.
Sales Volume – Ultragaz (‘000 tons)
Ipiranga – Ipiranga’s sales volumes totalled 2,770 thousand cubic meters, a 2% increase compared to 1Q08. Fuel sales volume for passenger cars (gasoline, ethanol and NGV) grew 9%, mainly as a consequence of the increase in light vehicles fleet during the last 12 months and investments in new Ipiranga service stations in 2008. Diesel sales volume totalled 1,507 thousand cubic meters in 1Q09, a 3% decrease compared to 1Q08, following the lower level of economic activity. Compared to 4Q08, Ipiranga reported an 11% reduction in sales volume, reflecting basically the typical seasonality between periods.
Sales Volume – Ipiranga (000 m³)
- 6 -

Oxiteno – Oxiteno's sales volume totalled 124 thousand tons, 9% lower than in 1Q08, as a consequence of the de-stocking process in the value chain of many economic sectors and higher levels of glycol sales in 1Q08, taking advantage of the restricted international supply of this product at that time. The variation between 1Q09 and 1Q08 is lower than the 24% decrease reported between 4Q08 and 4Q07, indicating an evolution in the de-stocking process and the replacement of imports by the company’s clients. The sales mix also showed an improvement, with sales of specialty chemicals rising from 90% of total sales in 1Q08 to 93% in 1Q09. Compared to 4Q08, Oxiteno’s sales volume was down by 7%, basically due to seasonality between quarters.
Sales Volume – Oxiteno (000 tons)
Ultracargo – Ultracargo reported a 46% increase in average storage measured in cubic meters compared to 1Q08 as a consequence of the consolidation of União Terminais from 4Q08 on and the expansion of the Aratu terminal. Compared to 4Q08, Ultracargo’s average storage measured in cubic meters decreased by 1% as a result of a reduction in ethanol handling due to the inter-harvest season in the first quarter, partially offset by a 6% higher occupancy rate at União Terminais’ terminals. In the transportation segment, total kilometrage travelled was down by 22% and 26% compared to 1Q08 and 4Q08, respectively, due to Ultracargo’s decision to reduce its presence in the packed cargo segment and the lower level of economic activity in 1Q09.

Economic-Financial Performance

Net Sales and Services – Ultrapar’s net sales and services amounted to R$ 6,411 million in 1Q09, up 8% on 1Q08, as a consequence of the growth seen in all of the company's business units. Compared to 4Q08, Ultrapar's net sales and services decreased by 16% as a consequence of seasonality in its businesses.
Net Sales and Services (R$ million)
Ultragaz – Ultragaz's net sales and services amounted to R$ 765 million in 1Q09, a 3% increase on 1Q08, mainly due to the rise in the cost of LPG used in the bulk segment in 2008. Compared to 4Q08, net sales and services were down 7%, in line with the seasonally lower volume.
Ipiranga – Ipiranga's net sales and services amounted to R$ 5,114 million in 1Q09, 9% higher than the net sales and services in 1Q08, basically as a consequence of a 2% increase in sales volume in the period, the increase in the cost of diesel in 2008, and measures implemented to improve legislation and inspection of the fuel sector. Compared to 4Q08, net sales and services were 17% lower, basically as a result of typical seasonality between periods.
Net sales breakdown by product – Ipiranga
Oxiteno – Net sales and services of Oxiteno totalled R$ 460 million in 1Q09, 10% higher than in 1Q08, despite the reduction of 9% in the volume sold, as a consequence of the 33% weaker Brazilian Real. Compared to 4Q08, net sales and services fell by 19% as a result of the seasonally lower volumes sold and a 14% decrease in average prices in dollar terms, particularly international glycol prices.
- 8 -

Ultracargo – Ultracargo’s net sales and services totalled R$ 82 million in 1Q09, a 36% increase compared to 1Q08, as a result (i) of higher average storage as a consequence of the consolidation of União Terminais from 4Q08 on and the expansion of the Aratu terminal and (ii) contract fee adjustments. Compared to 4Q08, Ultracargo’s net sales and services fell by 6% as a result of the seasonal reduction in ethanol handling and a decrease in the kilometrage travelled, which were partially offset by higher revenues from the acquired terminals of União Terminais.
Cost of Goods Sold – Ultrapar's cost of goods sold amounted to R$ 5,885 million in 1Q09, up 8% on 1Q08. Compared to 1Q08, Ultrapar’s cost of goods sold fell by 16%.
Ultragaz – The cost of goods sold at Ultragaz reached R$ 654 million in 1Q09, up 1% on 1Q08, as a consequence of increases in the ex-refinery price of LPG for use in the bulk segment during 2008, partially offset by cost reduction initiatives implemented during the last 12 months. Compared to 4Q08, Ultragaz's cost of goods sold was down by 9%, higher than the seasonal volume variation, as a consequence of cost reduction initiatives implemented.
Ipiranga – Ipiranga's cost of goods sold amounted to R$ 4,822 million in 1Q09, up 9% on 1Q08, as a consequence of a 2% increase in sales volume, the increase in the diesel ex-refinery price in May 2008, and the obligatory increase in the amount of biodiesel added to diesel. Compared to 4Q08, the cost of goods sold was down by 17%, mainly as a result of the typical seasonality between periods.
Oxiteno – Oxiteno's cost of goods sold in 1Q09 amounted to R$ 376 million, a 12% increase on 1Q08, despite the 9% drop in sales volume, as a consequence of the 33% weaker Brazilian Real and higher fixed and depreciation costs as a result of the start-up of the expanded operations in 4Q08. Compared to 4Q08, Oxiteno’s cost of goods sold decreased by 9% due to a 7% reduction in sales volume and a 10% reduction in the variable cost in dollars per ton. This reduction in the variable cost in dollars per ton, reported in the financial statements was significantly lower than, for example, the 48% reduction in international ethylene prices, due to the process of realization of Oxiteno’s inventories with historical costs higher than replacement costs.
Ultracargo – Ultracargo's cost of services provided in 1Q09 amounted to R$ 48 million, a 24% increase on 1Q08, as a consequence of the consolidation of the cost of services provided by União Terminais from 4Q08 on. Compared to 4Q08, Ultracargo’s cost of services provided decreased by 11% as a result of lower ethanol handling and a decrease in the kilometrage travelled.
Sales, General and Administrative Expenses – Sales, general and administrative expenses at Ultrapar amounted to
R$ 353 million in 1Q09, up 6% on 1Q08 and down 12% on 4Q08.
Ultragaz – Ultragaz's sales, general and administrative expenses amounted to R$ 87 million in 1Q09, 2% and 3% up on 1Q08 and 4Q08, respectively, as a consequence of higher expenses related to sales campaigns, partially offset by lower indemnification expenses and by expense reduction initiatives implemented in 2008.
Ipiranga – Ipiranga's sales, general and administrative expenses (including employees statutory interest) amounted to R$ 178 million in 1Q09, up 7% on 1Q08 and down 6% on 4Q08. Sales expenses rose by 2% compared to 1Q08 and fell by 9% compared to 4Q08, as a consequence of the variation in sales volume in the respective periods. Compared to 1Q08, general and administrative expenses (including employees statutory interest) increased by 13% as a result of (i) higher depreciation expenses, (ii) higher personnel expenses as a consequence of the annual collective wage agreement, (iii) expenses with the installation of CTF (Fleet Control System) in the Texaco’s and Ipiranga’s service stations, and (iv) higher environment-related expenses. Compared to 4Q08, Ipiranga’s general and administrative expenses (including employees statutory interest) decreased by 3%.
Oxiteno – Sales, general and administrative expenses of Oxiteno amounted to R$ 63 million in 1Q09, up 26% on 1Q08, mainly as a consequence of (i) higher freight unit cost, as a consequence of the weakening in the Brazilian Real and the rise in diesel prices, (ii) the increase in personnel expenses as a result of the annual collective wage agreement and a variation in variable compensation and (iii) higher expenses related to Oxiteno’s operations outside Brazil. Compared to 4Q08, sales, general and administrative expenses at Oxiteno fell by 20%, as a consequence of lower sales volume and a decrease in variable compensation.
- 9 -

Ultracargo – Ultracargo's sales, general and administrative expenses amounted to R$ 23 million in 1Q09, up 17% compared to 1Q08, due to the consolidation of sales, general and administrative expenses from União Terminais from 4Q08 on and an increase in personnel expenses as a result of the annual collective wage agreement. Compared to 4Q08, sales, general and administrative expenses at Ultracargo fell by 26% as a consequence of the goodwill amortization from the acquisition of União Terminais in 4Q08. Excluding the goodwill amortization from União Terminais in 4Q08, sales, general and administrative expenses at Ultracargo remained stable in 1Q09 compared to 4Q08.
EBITDA – Ultrapar reported earnings before interest, tax depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of R$ 274 million in 1Q09, up 21% compared to 1Q08, as a consequence of EBITDA growth in Ipiranga, Ultragaz and Ultracargo. Compared to 4Q08, Ultrapar's EBITDA decreased by 18% mainly as a consequence of a seasonal volume drop in its businesses.
EBITDA (in R$ million)
Ultragaz – Ultragaz reported EBITDA of R$ 52 million in 1Q09, up 29% and 5% on 1Q08 and 4Q08, respectively, despite the decrease in sales volume, mainly as a result of cost and expense reduction initiatives implemented during the last 12 months.
Ipiranga – Ipiranga reported EBITDA of R$ 144 million in 1Q09, up 11% on 1Q08, mainly as a consequence of (i) a 2% increase in sales volume, and (ii) measures implemented to improve legislation and inspection of the fuel sector. Compared to 4Q08, EBITDA decreased by 18%, mainly as a consequence of the seasonal volume drop.
Oxiteno – Oxiteno’s EBITDA amounted to R$ 46 million in 1Q09, a 2% decrease compared to 1Q08, mainly as a result of the decrease in sales volume and higher fixed costs due to the start-up of expanded operations in 4Q08. Compared to 4Q08, Oxiteno’s EBITDA reduced by 50% due to the same reasons mentioned above, in addition to the benefit of the 22% depreciation of the Brazilian Real during 4Q08, compared to a stable exchange rate in 1Q09, and the difference between historical costs and replacement costs in 1Q09. Oxiteno estimates that the effect from the difference between historical and replacement costs was R$ 33 million.
Ultracargo – Ultracargo reported EBITDA of R$ 24 million, R$ 14 million higher than in 1Q08, as a consequence of the consolidation of União Terminais’ EBITDA from 4Q08 on and the expansion of the Aratu terminal. Compared to 4Q08, Ultracargo’s EBITDA increased by 15% due to the EBITDA growth from its terminals, particularly those from União Terminais.
Depreciation and Amortization – Total depreciation and amortization costs and expenses in 1Q09 were R$ 96 million, R$ 9 million higher than those in 1Q08 due to the addition of the depreciation of União Terminais, Oxiteno’s expanded operations from 4Q08 on and investments in new and re-branded service stations at Ipiranga, partially offset by the elimination of goodwill amortization expenses starting on January 1st, 2009. Compared to 4Q08, total depreciation and amortization costs and expenses decreased by R$ 12 million as a consequence of the elimination of goodwill amortization expenses starting on January 1st, 2009.
Financial result – Ultrapar reported net financial expense of R$ 59 million in 1Q09, R$ 22 million higher than that in 1Q08. The increase in net financial expense in 1Q09 reflects (i) an increase in Ultrapar’s net debt and (ii) higher interest

rates. Compared to 4Q08, the financial expense decreased by R$ 40 million as a result of lower interest rates and the effect of the 22% depreciation of the Brazilian Real during 4Q08 on the net short exposure in foreign currency, compared to a stable exchange rate in 1Q09.
As of March 31st, 2009, Ultrapar had a net exposure in foreign currency short in US$ 27 million, compatible with Oxiteno’s short-term sales flow in foreign currency. Ultrapar closed 1Q09 with gross debt of R$ 4,139 million, including the R$ 500 million loan from Caixa Econômica Federal in March 2009, and net debt of R$ 2,562 million, compared to a net debt of R$ 806 million at the end of 1Q08 and R$ 1,538 million at the end of 4Q08, as a consequence of disbursements for the acquisition of União Terminais in October 2008 and Texaco in March 2009.
Other revenues and expenses (former "Non-Operating Results") – In 1Q09 Ultrapar reported other revenues of R$ 3 million mainly due to the sale of trucks in 1Q09, compared to other revenues of R$ 6 million in 1Q08 related to the result from the sale of Ipiranga’s headquarters building in the city of São Paulo. In 4Q08, Ultrapar reported other expenses in the amount of R$ 8 million, mainly due to the write-off of certain studies and projects.
Net Earnings – Ultrapar’s net consolidated earnings in 1Q09 amounted to R$ 91 million, in line with the figure in 1Q08, due to a 21% growth in Ultrapar’s EBITDA, offset by a higher net debt and an increase in depreciation. Compared to 4Q08, net earnings increased by 34%, mainly as a consequence of a decrease in net financial expenses.
Investments – Total investments, net of disposals and repayments, amounted to R$ 1,291 million in 1Q09, allocated as follows:

· | At Ultragaz, R$ 27 million were invested mainly on the renewal and replacement of LPG bottles and tanks.

· | At Ipiranga, R$ 25 million were invested. The investments were directed to re-branding and new service stations, renewal of contracts and improvements in service stations and distribution facilities, with R$ 29 million related to additions to property, plant and equipment, reduced by R$ 4 million related to financing repayments and bonuses to clients¹, net of new disbursements.

Outlook

With the integration of Texaco from April 1st on, we have started the process of implementing our business plan, which includes the integration of the acquired business into Ultrapar and the implementation of Ipiranga’s business model, focusing on the realization of estimated synergies and the capture of benefits arising from increased scale and nationwide coverage. Simultaneously, we expect to continue improving our results, based on a combination of the resilient nature and financial soundness of our businesses with the benefits derived from investments made over the last years. At Ipiranga, in addition to Texaco’s results, the sale of fuels for passenger vehicles is bound to keep its positive growth trend based on the higher vehicle fleet. At Ultragaz, the continuation of the Ultralevel and Ultraflex operational efficiency improvement programs, which contributed to the costs and expenses optimization in the last quarters, will allow further growth in results in 2009. At Oxiteno, we have seen a gradual recovery of sales volume, mainly as a result of the replacement of imports, allowing the company to capture the benefits of lower raw material costs over time. At Ultracargo, we will continue to focus on capturing the benefits from the acquisition of União Terminais.

| c. | Tax exemption

The following subsidiaries are entitled to partial or total exemption from IRPJ under the government’s program for development of Northeastern Brazil:

Subsidiary |  | Units |  | Incentive - % |  | Expiration
Oxiteno Nordeste S.A. Indústria e Comércio |  | Camaçari plant |  | 75 |  | 2016
Bahiana Distribuidora de Gás Ltda. |  | Mataripe base |  | 75 |  | 2013

Terminal Químico de Aratu S.A. – Tequimar |  | Aratu terminal |  | 75 |  | 2012
|  | Suape terminal |  | 75 |  | 2015

| (*) | Tax exemption of the Suape base expired in December 2007, and a request was filed with the Agency for the Development of the Northeast (ADENE), responsible for managing this incentive plan, asking for 75% tax relief until 2017. If this 75% relief is not granted, the subsidiary will file another request with ADENE for 12.5% relief until 2013, to which it is entitled because it is located in an incentive area and is considered a priority economic activity for the development of the region.

| (**) | Due to the upgrade of the Aracaju base, the Agency for the Development of the Northeast (ADENE) approved an increase in the income tax relief from 25% to 75% until 2017, through a report issued on December 19, 2008. On January 20, 2009, the tax benefit report was submitted to the Federal Revenue Service for approval within 120 days. If this 75% benefit is not approved, the subsidiary will continue to be entitled to a 12.5% relief until 2013.

| • | Supervision and monitoring of compliance with the principles, guidelines and standards of the Policy is the responsibility of the Risk and Investment Committee, set up more than 10 years ago and composed of members of the Company’s Executive Board (“Committee”). The Committee holds regular meetings and is in charge, among other responsibilities, of discussing and monitoring the financial strategies, existing exposures, and significant transactions involving investment, fund raising, or risk mitigation. The Committee monitors the risk standards established by the Policy through a monitoring map on a monthly basis.

| • | Changes in the Policy or revisions of its standards are subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors.

| • | Continuous enhancement of the Policy is the joint responsibility of the Board of Directors, the Committee, and the Financial Area.

Currency risk
Most transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries are located in Brazil and, therefore, the reference currency for currency risk management is the Real. Currency risk management is guided by neutrality of currency exposures and considers the transactional, accounting, and operational risks of the Company and its subsidiaries and their exposure to changes in exchange rates. The Company considers as its main currency exposures the assets and liabilities in foreign currency and the short-term flow of net sales in foreign currency of Oxiteno.
The subsidiaries of the Company use exchange rate hedging instruments (especially between the Real and the U.S. dollar) available in the financial market to protect their assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency, in order to reduce the effects of changes in exchange rates on its results and cash flows in Reais within the exposure limits under its Policy. Such foreign exchange hedging instruments have amounts, periods, and rates substantially equivalent to those of assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency to which they are related. Assets and liabilities in foreign currency are stated below, translated into Reais as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008:

Based on the net liability position of R$ 63.6 million in foreign currency shown above, we estimate that a 10% devaluation (valuation) of the Real would produce a total effect of R$ 6.4 million, of which R$ 11.5 million of financial expense (revenue) and R$ 5.1 of gain (loss) directly recognized in the shareholders’ cummulative translation adjustments (see Note 3.n).
Interest rate risk
The Company and its subsidiaries adopt conservative policies for fund raising and use of financial resources and capital cost minimization. The financial investments of the Company and its subsidiaries are primarily held in transactions linked to the interest rate for Interbank Certificate of Deposit (CDI), as set forth in Note 5. Fund raising primarily results from financing from BNDES and other development agencies, promissory notes and funds raised in foreign currency, as shown in Note 16.
The Company does not actively manage risks associated with changes in the level of interest rates and attempts to maintain its financial interest assets and liabilities at floating rates. As of March 31, 2009, the Company and its subsidiaries did not have derivative financial instruments for interest rate risk management linked to domestic loans.
Credit risks
The financial instruments that would expose the Company and its subsidiaries to credit risks of the counterparty are basically represented by cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and accounts receivable.
Credit risk of financial institutions - Such risk results from the inability of financial institutions to comply with their financial obligations to the Company and its subsidiaries due to insolvency. The Company and its subsidiaries regularly conduct a credit review of the institutions with which they hold cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and hedging instruments through various methodologies that assess liquidity, solvency, leverage, portfolio quality, etc. Cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and hedging instruments are held only with institutions with a solid credit history, chosen for safety and soundness. The volumes of cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and hedging instruments are subject to maximum limits by institution and, therefore, require diversification of counterparty.
Government credit risk - The Company and its subsidiaries have financial investments in federal government bonds of Brazil and countries rated AAA or Aaa by specialized credit rating agencies. The volumes of financial investments are subject to maximum limits by country and, therefore, require diversification of counterparty.
Customer credit risk - Such risks are managed by each business unit through specific criteria for acceptance of customers and credit rating and are additionally mitigated by diversification of sales. A Oxiteno S.A. Indústria e Comércio and its subsidiaries maintained, as of March 31, 2009, R$ 2,407 (R$ 2,263 as of December 31, 2008), the subsidiaries Bahiana Distribuidora de Gás Ltda. and Companhia Ultragaz S.A. maintained, R$ 9,339 (R$ 9,007 as of December 31, 2008), Ipiranga/Refining maintained, R$ 48,266 (R$ 46,960 as of December 31, 2008), and the subsidiaries of Ultracargo Operações Logísticas e Participações Ltda. maintained, R$ 1,593 (R$ 1,548 as of December 31, 2008) as a provision for potential loss on their accounts and assets receivables.

Selection and use of financial instruments
In selecting financial investments and hedging instruments, an analysis is conducted to estimate rates of return, risks involved, liquidity, calculation methodology for the carrying value and fair value, and documentation applicable to the financial instruments. The financial instruments used to manage the financial resources of the Company and its subsidiaries are intended to preserve value and liquidity.
The Policy contemplates the use of derivative financial instruments only to cover identified risks and in amounts consistent with the risk (limited to 100% of the identified risk). The risks identified in the Policy are described in the above Sections of this Note 21 and, therefore, are subject to risk management. In accordance with the Policy, the Company and its subsidiaries can use forward contracts, swaps, options, and futures contracts to manage identified risks. Leveraged derivative instruments or instruments with a margin call are not permitted. Because the use of derivative financial instruments is limited to the coverage of identified risks, the Company and its subsidiaries use the term “hedging instruments” to refer to derivative financial instruments.
As mentioned in the section Risk management and financial instruments – Governance of this Note 21, the Committee monitors compliance with the risk standards established by the Policy through a risk monitoring map, including the use of hedging instruments, on a monthly basis.

The fair value of financial instruments, including currency and interest hedging instruments, was determined as follows:

| • | The fair values of cash on current account are identical to the carrying values.

| • | Financial investments in investment funds are valued at the value of the fund unit as of the date of the financial statements, which correspond to their fair value.

| • | Financial investments in CDBs and similar investments offer daily liquidity through repurchase in the yield curve and, therefore, the Company believes their fair value corresponds to their carrying value.

| • | The fair value of other financial investments and financing was determined using calculation methodologies commonly used for marking-to-market, which consist of calculating future cash flows associated with each instrument adopted and adjusting them to present value at the market rates as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. For some cases where there is no active market for the financial instrument, the Company and its subsidiaries used quotes provided by the transaction counterparties.

The interpretation of market information on the choice of calculation methodologies for the fair value requires considerable judgment and estimates to obtain a value deemed appropriate to each situation. Consequently, the estimates presented do not necessary indicate the amounts that may be realized in the current market.
Sensitivity analysis
The Company and its subsidiaries use derivative financial instruments only to hedge against identified risks and in amounts consistent with the risk (limited to 100% of the identified risk). Thus, for purposes of sensitivity analysis of market risks associated with financial instruments, the Company analyzes the hedging instrument and the hedged item together, as shown on the charts below.
For the sensitivity analysis of foreign exchange hedging instruments, Management adopted as a likely scenario the Real/U.S. dollar exchange rates at maturity of each swap, projected by dollar futures contracts quoted on BM&FBovespa as of March 31, 2009. As a reference, the exchange rate for the last maturity of foreign exchange hedging instruments is R$ 2.66 in the likely scenario. Scenarios II and III were estimated with a 25% and 50% additional devaluation, respectively, of the Real in the likely scenario.

Based on the balances of the hedging instruments and hedged items as of March 31, 2009, the exchange rates were replaced, and the changes between the new balance in Reais and the balance in Reais as of March 31, 2009 were calculated in each of the three scenarios. The table below shows the change in the values of the main derivative instruments and their hedged items, considering the changes in the exchange rate in the different scenarios:

(3)+(4) |  | Net Effect |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |

For the sensitivity analysis of the interest rate hedging instrument, the Company used the future LIBOR curve (BBA – British Bankers Association) as of March 31, 2009 at maturity of the swap and of the syndicated loan (hedged item), which occurs in 2011, in order to define the likely scenario. Scenarios II and III were estimated with a 25% and 50% deterioration, respectively, in the estimate of the likely LIBOR.
Based on the three interest rate scenarios, Management estimated the values of its loan and of the hedging instrument by calculating the future cash flows associated with each instrument adopted according to the projected scenarios and adjusting them to present value by the rate in effect on March 31, 2009. The result is stated on the table below:

|  |  | Scenario I |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| Risk |  | (likely) |  |  | Scenario II |  |  | Scenario III |

22 | Contingencies and commitments (Consolidated)

| a. | Civil, tax and labor proceedings

In 1990, the Union of Workers in Petrochemical Plants, of which the employees of the subsidiaries Oxiteno Nordeste S.A. Indústria e Comércio and Empresa Carioca de Produtos Químicos S.A. are members, filed an action against the subsidiaries to enforce adjustments established under a collective labor agreement, in lieu of the salary policies actually implemented. At the same time, the Employers’ Association proposed a collective bargaining for interpretation and clarification of Clause Four of the agreement. Based on the opinion of its legal counsel, who reviewed the latest decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) in the collective bargaining and the position of the individual action of the subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste S.A. Indústria e Comércio, Management of the subsidiaries did not deem it necessary to record a provision as of March 31, 2009.
Subsidiary Companhia Ultragaz S.A. is facing an administrative case pending before the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) for alleged anticompetitive practice in cities in the Triângulo Mineiro region in 2001. Recently, the CADE entered a decision against Companhia Ultragaz S.A. imposing a penalty of 1% of the annual gross revenue for 2001 (which was R$ 1,475 million), excluding taxes and adjusted by IPCA-e. This administrative decision has not yet become final and can still be appealed administratively. If the adverse decision is administratively upheld, then its execution may be stayed and the merits reconsidered in court. Based on the above elements and on the opinion of its legal counsel, the subsidiary’s Management did not record a provision.
Subsidiary Companhia Ultragaz S.A. is the defendant in legal proceedings for damages arising from an explosion in 1996 in a shopping mall located in the City of Osasco, State of São Paulo. Such proceedings involve: (i) individual proceedings brought by victims of the explosion seeking compensation for loss of income and pain and suffering (ii) request for compensation for expenses of the shopping mall administrator and its insurer; and (iii) class action seeking economic and non-economic damages for all victims injured and dead. The subsidiary believes that it produced evidence that the defective gas pipelines in the shopping mall caused the accident, and Ultragaz’s local LPG storage facilities did not contribute to the explosion. Out of the 62 actions decided to date, 61 were favorable, of which 25 are already shelved; only 1 was adverse in the second instance, which can still be appealed, and if such decision is upheld, the value is R$ 17. There are 3 actions yet to be decided. The subsidiary has insurance coverage for these legal proceedings, and the value not insured is R$ 16,524. The Company did not record any provision for this value because it considers the chances of realization of this contingency as essentially remote.

The Company and its subsidiaries obtained injunctions to pay PIS and COFINS contributions without the changes introduced by Law 9718/98 in its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of theses taxes on sources other than revenues. In 2005, the STF decided the question in favor of the taxpayer. Although it has set a precedent, the effect of this decision does not automatically apply to all companies, since they must await judgment of their own legal lawsuits. The Company has subsidiaries whose lawsuits have not yet been decided. If all ongoing lawsuits are finally decided in favor of the subsidiaries, the Company estimates that the total positive effect on income before income tax and social contribution will reach R$ 33,226, net of attorney’s fees.
Based on the favorable jurisprudence and the opinion of its legal counsel, the subsidiaries Oxiteno Nordeste S.A. Indústria e Comércio and Oxiteno S.A. Indústria e Comércio filed, on September 16 and October 1, 2008, respectively, lawsuits to obtain preliminary injunctions to exclude export revenues from the tax base for Social Contribution on Profit. The injunction was granted to Oxiteno Nordeste, and the subsidiary will make judicial deposits of the amounts due; the subsidiary Oxiteno S.A. awaits judgment of appeal against the decision which denied the requested injunction.
Subsidiary Utingás Armazenadora S.A. is defending itself against notices of assessment of Service Tax (ISS) issued by the Municipal Government of Santo André. The position of the subsidiary’s legal counsel is that the risk is low since a significant portion of the administrative decisions was favorable to the subsidiary. The thesis defended by the subsidiary is supported by the opinion of a renowned tax specialist. The unprovided for contingency, adjusted as of March 31, 2009, is R$ 47,457 (R$ 46,916 as of December 31, 2008).
On October 7, 2005, the subsidiaries Companhia Ultragraz S.A. and Bahiana Distribuidora de Gás Ltda. filed for and obtained an injunction to offset PIS and COFINS credits against other taxes administered by the Federal Revenue Service, notably IRPJ and CSLL. The decision was confirmed by a trial court judgment on May 16, 2008. Under the injunction obtained, the subsidiaries have been making judicial deposits for these debits in the accumulated amount of R$ 123,037 as of March 31, 2009 (R$ 117,679 as of December 31, 2008) and have recorded a corresponding liability.
Subsidiaries Companhia Ultragaz S.A., Utingás Armazenadora S.A., Terminal Químico de Aratu S.A. - Tequimar, Transultra - Armazenamento e Transporte Especializado Ltda. and Ultracargo Operações Logísticas e Participações Ltda. have filed actions with a motion for injunction seeking full and immediate utilization of the supplementary monetary adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index (IPC)/National Treasury Bonds (BTN) for 1990 (Law 8200/91) and maintain a provision of R$ 14,853 (R$ 14,575 as of December, 2008) to cover any contingencies if they lose such actions.

Indústria e Comércio, Companhia Ultragaz S.A. and Transultra Armazenamento e Transporte Especializado Ltda. filed for an injuction seeking the deduction of ICMS from the PIS and COFINS tax basis. Oxiteno Nordeste S.A. Indústria e Comércio obtained an injuction and is paying the disputed amounts into judicial deposits, as well as recording the respective provision in the amount of R$ 27,365 (R$ 24,255 as of December, 2008). The other subsidiaries did not obtain an injunction and are awaiting the outcome of an appeal lodged with Tribunal Regional Federal (TRF) for the 3rd Region. On August 19, 2008, the subsidiaries Companhia Brasileira de Petróleo Ipiranga, Refinaria de Petróleo Riograndense S.A., Tropical Transportes Ipiranga Ltda. and Empresa Carioca de Produtos Químicos S.A. also filed for injuctions seeking the same benefit, and are awaiting the judgment of these lawsuits.
The Company and some of its subsidiaries have filed actions with a motion for injunction against the application of the law restricting offset of tax losses (IRPJ) and negative tax bases (CSLL) determined as of December 31, 1994 to 30% of the income for the year. As a result of the position of the Federal Supreme Court (SFT) and based on the opinion of its legal counsel, a provision was recorded for this contingency in the amount of R$ 6,882 (R$ 6,804 as of December 31, 2008).
In 2007, based on recent jurisprudence, the position of its legal counsel, and the increase in the amounts involved in transactions, the Company and its subsidiaries began to record a provision for PIS and COFINS on credits of interest on capital. The total amount accrued as of March 31, 2009 is R$ 22,420 (R$ 21,943 as of December 31, 2008).
Regarding Ipiranga/Refining, the main additional contingencies provided for, relate to: (i) requirement for the reversal of ICMS credits on transportation services taken during the freight reimbursement system established by the DNC (currently ANP – National Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuel Agency), R$ 7,324; (b) requirement for the reversal of ICMS credits, in the State of Minas Gerais, on interstate outflows carried under Article 33 of ICMS Convention 66/88, which allowed maintenance of credits and was suspended by an injunction issued by the STF, R$ 28,617; (c) assessments for deduction of unconditional discounts from the tax base for ICMS due to tax substitution, in the State of Minas Gerais, R$ 16,419; (d) litigation on clauses of contracts with customers; and (e) claims made by former employees and subcontractors on salary allowances.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)
The main tax contingences of Ipiranga/Refining that were considered to pose a possible risk of loss relate to ICMS and total R$ 147,296, and based on this position, have not been provided for in the financial statements, consisting primarily of: (a) requirement for the reversal of credits resulting from excess taxation on acquisition of products in the petroleum refinery under the tax substitution regime; (b) requirement for the ICMS on acquisition of basic oils; (c) assessments in the State of Rio de Janeiro requiring reversal of ICMS credits on interstate outflows made under Article 33 of ICMS Convention 66/88, which allowed maintenance of credits and was suspended by an injunction issued by the STF; (d) requirement for the reversal of presumed credit on interstate transfers of hydrated fuel ethanol in the State of Santa Catarina; (e) notices of assessment issued in Minas Gerais for alleged miscalculation of the tax base for ICMS, since the amount of the tax itself on interstate transactions with petroleum byproducts to end consumer was not included in such tax base; and (f) notice of assessment regarding transactions for return of anhydrous ethanol loan.
In addition, the subsidiary CBPI and its subsidiaries have tax assessments concerning non-homologation of IPI credits originated in acquisitions of products whose subsequent sales had no taxation. The amount of the unprovided for contingency, adjusted as of March 31, 2009, is R$ 42,266 (R$ 40,430 as of December 31, 2008).
The Company and its subsidiaries have other pending administrative and legal proceedings, which were estimated by their legal counsel as possible and/or remote risk, and the related potential losses were not provided for by the Company and its subsidiaries based on these opinions. The Company and its subsidiaries also have litigations for recovery of taxes and contributions, which were not recorded in the financial statements due to their contingent nature.
Movements in provisions, net of amounts in escrow, are as follows:

23 | Employee benefits and private pension plan (Consolidated)

| a. | ULTRAPREV- Associação de Previdência Complementar

The Company and its subsidiaries offer a defined-contribution pension plan to their employees, which is managed by Ultraprev - Associação de Previdência Complementar. Under the plan, the basic contribution of each participating employee is calculated by multiplying a percentage ranging from 0% to 11%, which is annually defined by the participant based on his/her salary. The sponsor companies match the amount of the basic contribution paid by the participant. As the participants retire, they choose to receive monthly either: (i) a percentage, ranging from 0.5% to 1.0%, of the fund accumulated for the participant with Ultraprev; or (ii) a fixed monthly amount that will exhaust the fund accumulated for the participant within a period ranging from 5 to 25 years. Thus, the Company and its subsidiaries do not assume responsibility for guaranteeing amounts and periods of pension benefits. As of March 31, 2009, the Company and its subsidiaries contributed R$ 2,227 (R$ 1,499 as of March 31, 2008) to Ultraprev, which amount is recorded as expense in the income statement for the period. The total number of employees participating in the plan as of March 31, 2009 was 7,126 active participants and 21 retired participants. In addition, Ultraprev had 1 active participant and 30 former employees receiving benefits under the previous plan whose reserves are fully constituted.

1 | Operations

Ultrapar Participações S.A. (“Company”), with headquarters in the City of São Paulo, engages in the investment of its own capital in commercial and industrial activities and related businesses, including the subscription or acquisition of shares of other companies.
Through its subsidiaries, it operates in the segment of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) distribution (“Ultragaz”), light fuel & lubricant distribution, and related business in Southern and Southeastern Brazil (“Ipiranga”), production and marketing of chemicals (“Oxiteno”), and provision of integrated logistics solution services for special bulk cargo (“Ultracargo”). The Company also operates in the petroleum refining business through its investment in Refinaria de Petróleo Riograndense S.A. (“Refining”).

2 | Initial implementation of Law 11638/07 and summary of significant accounting policy changes

Law 11638/07 was enacted on December 28, 2007 and Provisional Measure 449/08 was issued on December 3, 2008, both amending and repealing existing provisions and adding new provisions to Law 6404/76 (Brazilian Corporate Law) to adapt the accounting policies adopted in Brazil to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). In order to regulate these changes, the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) issued a set of Resolutions during 2008, whose main effects on the interim financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are summarized below.
Resolution CVM 565 of December 17, 2008 – deals with the initial implementation of Law 11638/07 and Provisional Measure (MP) 449/08.
As permitted by this Resolution, the Company decided to adopt January 1, 2008 as the date of transition. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries started to use the equity method of accounting for the company Metalúrgica Plus S/A. and consolidate the company SERMA – Associação dos Usuários de Equipamentos de Processamento de Dados e Serviços Correlatos in their interim financial statements (see Notes 4 and 12). The information presented herein for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, differs from the one previously disclosed because the Company retroactively applied to them the new accounting standards issued during the year, as established by CVM. In the following table the effects on consolidated net income as of March 31, 2008 related to the adoption of Law 11638/07 and 449/08 MP are shown.

Certain financial lease contracts where substantially all the risks and benefits associated with the ownership of an asset are transferred to the Company and its subsidiaries were recorded in the financial statements as finance leases, net of tax effects.

3 | Presentation of interim financial statements and significant accounting policies

The individual and consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in conformity with the accounting pratices adopted in Brazil, which include the Brazilian Corporate Law, the Standards, Guidelines and Interpretations issued by the Accounting Standards Committee and the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM).

| a. | Recognition of income

Income is recognized on the accrual basis. Revenues from sales and costs are recognized as income when all risks and benefits associated with the products are transferred to the purchaser. Revenues from services provided and their costs are recognized as income when the services are performed.

| b. | Cash equivalents

Include short-term highly-liquid investments that are readily convertible into a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. See Note 5 for further detail on cash equivalents of the Company and its subsidiaries.

| c. | Financial instruments

In accordance with Resolution CVM 566/08, the financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries were classified into the following categories:

| • | Measured at fair value through income: financial assets held for trading, that is, purchased or created primarily for the purpose of sale or repurchase in the short term, and derivatives. Changes in fair value are recorded as income, and the balances are stated at fair value.

| • | Held to maturity: non-derivative financial assets with fixed payments or determinable payments with fixed maturities for which the entity has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. The interest earned is recorded as income, and balances are stated at acquisition cost plus the interest earned.

| • | Available for sale: non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sale or that were not classified into other categories. The interest earned is recorded as income, and the balances are stated at fair value. Differences between fair value and acquisition cost plus the interest earned are recorded in a specific account of the shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses recorded in the shareholders’ equity are included in income, in case of prepayment.

| • | Loans and receivables: non-derivative financial instruments with fixed payments, receipts or determinable payments not quoted in active markets, except: (i) those which the entity intends to sell immediately or in the short term and which the entity classified as measured at fair value through income; (ii) those classified as available for sale; or (iii) those the holder of which cannot substantially recover its initial investment for reasons other than credit deterioration. The interest earned is recorded as income, and balances are stated at acquisition cost plus the interest earned.

Certain derivative financial instruments used to hedge against changes in interest rates were designated as cash flow hedge for purposes of measuring their fair value. The difference between the fair value of the financial instrument and its value plus interest earned is recognized as a Valuation adjustment in the shareholders’ equity, not affecting the income statement of the Company and its subsidiaries. Gains and losses recorded in the shareholders’ equity are included in income, in case of prepayment.
For further detail on financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries, see Notes 5, 16, and 21.

| d. | Current and non-current assets

Allowance for doubtful accounts is calculated based on estimated losses and is set at an amount deemed by Management to be sufficient to cover any loss on realization of accounts receivable.
Inventories are stated at the lower of average acquisition or production cost, and replacement cost or market value.
The other assets are stated at the lower of cost and realizable value, including, if applicable, the interest earned, monetary changes and changes in exchange rates incurred or less a provision for loss and, if applicable, adjustment to present value (see Note 3.q).

| e. | Investments

Investments in subsidiaries are valued by the equity method of accounting.
Investments in companies on which Management has a significant influence or in which it holds 20% or more of the voting stock, or that are part of a group under common control are also valued by the equity method of accounting (see Note 12).
The other investments are stated at acquisition cost less provision for loss, unless the loss is considered temporary, and also include investments in progress.

| f. | Fixed assets

Recorded at acquisition or construction cost, including financial charges incurred on fixed assets under construction, as well as significant maintenance costs resulting from scheduled plant outages. The Company will maintain the revaluation balances, which were incorporated in the value of the respective assets, until their realization, without, however, accounting for new revaluations.
Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method, at the annual rates stated in Note 13, over the useful/economic life of the property.
Leasehold improvements in service stations are depreciated over the shorter of the contract term and useful/economic life of the property.

| g. | Financial leases

| • | Finance leases

Certain financial lease contracts transfer substantially all the risks and benefits associated with the ownership of an asset to the Company and its subsidiaries. These contracts are characterized as finance leases, and assets thereunder are stated at fair value or present value of the minimum payments under the relevant contracts. The items recognized as assets are depreciated at the depreciation rates applicable to each group of assets in accordance with Note 13. Financial charges under the finance lease contracts are allocated to income over the contract term, based on the amortized cost and actual interest rate method (see Note 16.f).

| • | Operating leases

Are lease transactions where the risks and benefits associated with the ownership of the asset are not transferred and where the purchase option at the end of the contract is equivalent to the market value of the leased asset. Payments made under an operating lease contract are recognized as expenses in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease contract, in accordance with Note 22.d).

| h. | Intangible assets

Intangible assets include assets acquired by the Company and its subsidiaries from third parties, according to the following criteria (see Note 14):

| • | Goodwill is carried at the original value less accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2008, when it closed to be amortized.

| • | Other intangible assets acquired from third parties are measured at the total acquisition cost less accumulated amortization expenses.

The Company and its subsidiaries do not have intangible assets that were created internally or that have an indefinite useful life.

| i. | Deferred charges

Deferred charges include restructuring costs that will produce benefits in future years (see Note 15). The Company and its subsidiaries decided to maintain the balances until they are fully amortized.

| j. | Current and non-current liabilities

Are stated at known or calculable amounts plus, if applicable, related charges, monetary changes and changes in exchange rates incurred until the date of the financial statements and, if applicable, adjustment to present value (see Note 3.q).

| k. | Income tax and social contribution on profit

Current and deferred income tax (IRPJ) and social contribution (CSLL) are calculated based on the current rates of income tax and social contribution on profit, including the value of tax incentives, as stated in Note 10.b).

| l. | Provision for contingencies

The provision for contingencies is created for contingent risks with a “probable” chance of loss in the opinion of managers and internal and external legal counsel, and the values are recorded based on evaluation of the outcomes of the legal proceedings (see Note 22.a).

| m. | Actuarial obligation for post-employment benefits

Reserves for actuarial liabilities for post-employment benefits granted and to be granted to employees, retirees, and pensioners are based on an actuarial calculation prepared by an independent actuary, using the projected unit credit method, as described in Note 23.b).

| n. | Basis for translating financial statements of foreign-based subsidiaries

Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries Oxiteno México S.A. de C.V. and its subsidiaries, located in Mexico (functional currency: Mexican Peso), and Oxiteno Andina, C.A., located in Venezuela (functional currency: Bolivar), denominated in currencies other than that of the Company (functional currency: Real), are translated at the exchange rate in effect on the date of the financial statements. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized in the shareholders’ equity as Cumulative translation adjustments and are recognized as income when these investments are disposed of. The amount recognized in the shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments as of March 31, 2009 was R$ 7,239.
Assets and liabilities of the other foreign subsidiaries, which do not have autonomy, are considered activities of their investor and are translated at the exchange rate in effect on the date of the financial statements. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized as income. The loss recognized as of March 31, 2009 amounted to R$ 428 (R$ 1,183 loss as of March 31, 2008).

| o. | Use of estimates

The preparation of interim financial statements requires the Company’s Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the values of assets and liabilities presented as of the date of the interim financial statements, as well as the values of revenues, costs and expenses for the fiscal years presented. Although these estimates are based on the best information available to Management about present and future events, the actual results may differ from these estimates.

| p. | Impairment of assets

The Company reviews, at least annually, the carrying value of assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use or disposal. In cases where future expected cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of these assets. The factors considered by the Company in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends, and prospects, as well as the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors.
No impairment was recorded in the interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2009.

| q. | Adjustment to present value

The subsidiaries recorded the adjustment to present value of ICMS credit balances on fixed assets (CIAP – see Note 8). The Company and its subsidiaries reviewed all items classified as long-term and, where relevant, short-term assets and liabilities and did not identify the need to adjust other balances to present value.
