MANAGEMENT REPORT 2014
Dear Shareholders:
The Management of ULTRAPAR PARTICIPAÇÕES S.A. (Ultrapar) hereby submits for your appreciation the Management Report and Financial Statements for the fiscal year 2014. This information is accompanied by an independent auditors report with an unqualified opinion, which was discussed and reviewed by the Management.
COMPANY PROFILE
Ultrapar operates nationwide through its five business units, with a widespread presence in retail and distribution through Ipiranga, Ultragaz and Extrafarma - the latter was merged into Ultrapar in January 2014 - and solid positions in its specialty chemicals operations through Oxiteno and storage of liquid bulk through Ultracargo. It also operates outside Brazil through Oxiteno, which has production units in Mexico, United States, Uruguay and Venezuela. The combination of resilience and leverage on the economic growth in its businesses units places Ultrapar in a privileged position, establishing a unique multi-business company.
Since 1999, Ultrapar's shares have been listed at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), with ADRs level III, and at the BM&FBOVESPA (São Paulo Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange), and since 2011 in the Novo Mercado listing segment.
ULTRAPAR IN 2014
In 2014 Ultrapar completed 15 years as a publicly-traded company, with a history marked by large investments, pioneer spirit in corporate governance and robust and solid growth. During these 15 years, Ultrapar’s EBITDA and net earnings presented average growth of 20% and 23% per year, despite the different conditions of the Brazilian economy and the global scenario. The resilience of our businesses and our planning and execution capability acquired over the years proved to be instrumental in a more challenging environment, such as in 2014, which was characterized by a sharp slowdown in the economic activity, soaring inflation and interest rates. These fundamentals also allowed us to maintain our solid financial position, with net debt at the end of 2014 corresponding to 1.3 times EBITDA for the last 12 months, the same level presented at the end of 2013.
Ultrapar has a clear view on the factors it seeks in each initiative. Resilient demand, significant scale of operations, scope for differentiation through the offering of services and potential for consolidation are factors pursued in every investment decision. The discipline to identify these factors, combined with careful planning and execution, are elements that define the company's strategic vision.
All these factors are present in the fifth business unit added to the company in 2014, the retail pharmacy business, in which Ultrapar started to operate through Extrafarma. In January 2014, Ultrapar concluded the merger of Extrafarma, one of the leaders in its business segment in the North and Northeast regions in Brazil. The integration process of the new business unit into Ultrapar's structure and corporate culture was carried out throughout the year, as well as the process to prepare Extrafarma to accelerate the expansion in the number of stores from 2015 onwards.
With an expansion strategy of service stations based on the continued growth of the light vehicle fleet and on market consolidation opportunities, Ipiranga ended the year with 7,056 service stations, a 5% increase over 2013. This strategy has been focused mainly on the Midwest, Northeast and North regions of Brazil, where Ipiranga's network grew 12% in 2014, and where the growth in demand for fuels is greater than that observed in other regions of Brazil. Additionally, the volume sold by unbranded service stations in those regions corresponds to a larger market share compared to other regions, thus offering increased potential to expand through the conversion of unbranded service stations and the opening of new ones.
As part of a strategy of differentiation and customer loyalty, Ipiranga increased the offering of convenience and services, strengthening the marketing position of "A complete place waiting for you." The am/pm network, the largest convenience store chain in Brazil, continued its vigorous expansion, with a 9% growth in total stores, reaching 1,708 units in 2014, of which 360 include bakeries. Jet Oil network increased 8% to 1,337 franchises. The Km de Vantagens program, the largest loyalty program in Brazil, was strengthened as an important platform for customer relationship and for other initiatives of Ipiranga. In 2014, we also saw a significant growth of ConectCar, an electronic payment means for tolls, parking lots and service stations, which reached approximately 350 thousand customers, and is now available in almost all toll roads in Brazil. These initiatives contribute to the generation of increased flow at service stations. The end consumer has products and services with higher value added, the reseller enjoys an additional source of revenue and a differentiated positioning, maximizing the profitability of the chain as a whole, including Ipiranga.
Oxiteno continued with a strategy based on innovation, proximity to the customer and the growing use of renewable raw materials. In its international operations, Oxiteno continued with the expansion of its specialty chemicals plant in Mexico, strengthening its leading position in the local market.

Ultragaz took another step towards its strategy based on the growth and improvement of its reseller network, on differentiating its services with the support of innovation and also on creating new marketing channels. As an example, Ultragaz Connect was created in 2014, an application that allows the purchase of LPG bottles through smartphones and generates greater speed and safety for the consumer, as well as cost reductions for resellers. In the bulk segment, Ultragaz developed an optimized format for implementing new tank installations. The redesigned process reduces, on average, one third of the time of installation, with significant cost savings for the company and agility for the customer.
Ultracargo took advantage of the investments made in previous years in the expansion and acquisition of terminals, which ensured a better positioning to capture the accelerated growth in North and Northeast regions of Brazil. These investments have enabled Ultracargo to operate in response to an increased demand for handling automotive fuels and fuel oil.
Ultrapar invested R$ 1.2 billion in its businesses units over 2014, despite the signs of an economic slowdown. Our investments and initiatives allow us to look at the future in a realistic and, at the same time, optimistic way, even considering the impacts of a lower economic activity on the company's prospects. We plan to continue investing in 2015 at levels similar to 2014. Therefore, we reaffirm the commitment of Ultrapar, through its business activities, to continue growing and bringing prosperity to its customers, shareholders, suppliers and employees. Above all, the commitment to promote growth and grow with Brazil.

Corporate governance, strategy and value creation
The company's corporate governance structure has been designed to create an increasingly solid, profitable and long-lasting company. This structure is marked by the alignment of interests between shareholders and managers of the various corporate levels, engaged in the continuous generation of value, in a process that began in the 1980's when Pery Igel, the then manager and main shareholder, granted shares for some executives, linked to their retention for 20 years in the company, reinforcing meritocracy and business-owner mentality. Ultrapar always had the capital markets as an important ally to enable the growth of the company, not only as a provider of funds for investments but also as a source of development and consolidation of a shared responsibility culture, based on meritocratic management and alignment of interests.
As an example, in 2014 we completed the association with Extrafarma, a transaction made possible through an exchange of shares, which enabled the integration of Extrafarma’s management team and better alignment for the purposes of this project.
Social and environmental philosophy, innovation and operational excellence
Ultrapar consolidated a vision of sustainability that, throughout its history, has become one of the company's main pillars. The strategy includes, inter alia, accountable businesses conduction and the continuous dialogue with its stakeholders. The social and environmental responsibility has always been a guideline in the evolution of Ultrapar's operations, materialized in different operational excellence programs, adapted to the respective products and services, as well as social and environmental initiatives related to work, education and culture addressed to the communities in the regions it operates.
Posto Ecoeficiente (Eco-Efficient service station), developed by Ipiranga, is one of the projects which best reflects the philosophy adopted by Ultrapar. The initiative mixes the adoption of innovative measures with the pursue for sustainability, increasing the profitability of enterprises. Postos Ecoeficientes stations add a set of solutions adopted in the construction and operation of fuel stations, which result in better use of resources, such as water and electricity, and a reduction of waste and residues. In 2014, 436 new service stations were added to the Postos Ecoeficientes network, totaling 924 service stations.
With the same perspective, in 2014 Oxiteno brought an emulsifier made from vegetable oils to the agrochemicals market, reducing the environmental impact. As differentials, the new product features, in addition to the presence of natural inputs among its ingredients, greater physical and chemical stability and lower foam generation in its application. Thus, the product increases the efficiency of agricultural defensives in citrus crops.
In the social field, in the headquarters located at Bairro Bela Vista in São Paulo, 124 employees volunteer as educators, mentors, supervisors or monitors of Ultra Formare, a program of vocational education offered free of charge to public school students in the region. The goal is to promote professional qualification through a 33-week course in order to facilitate the integration of young people into the labor market to work as commercial and administrative assistants. In 2014, Ultra Formare organized the 13th class of students, being responsible for the qualification of 233 young people since the project began, in 2002.
People
The development of human capital, one of Ultrapar's main corporate guidelines, is grounded on meritocracy and the alignment of interests. The people management model adopted by the company favors the development of leaderships, with the establishment of challenging goals and the creation of new professional growth opportunities within the various business units and areas.
The stimulus to the promotion and the job-rotation of professionals has achieved positive results in the development process of different careers and allowed the retention of talents by the company. In 2014, around one thousand employees were transferred internally between areas of the same business unit or to another within Ultrapar, expanding the scope of practice of the professionals and promoting the exchange of best practices. More than 300 thousand hours of training were also provided to Ultrapar’s employees.

Customers, resellers and suppliers
At Ultrapar, the passion and respect for the customer is a philosophy of work that has guided the company. Besides that, Ultrapar maintains a strong partnership with its extensive network of suppliers and resellers based on ethical principles and on a management focused on sustainable financial results. These characteristics contribute to the longevity of its businesses, in addition to benefits extended to its partners.
Km de Vantagens maintained its position as the largest loyalty program in the Brazilian market, in 2014, with 18 million participants who have joined the program during the last five years. Consequently, it became the main relationship platform for Ipiranga, fostering a great evolution of the company's actions and communication with end customers. The partnership members also kept expanding throughout the year, exceeding the number of 70 partner companies, including cinemas, airlines, restaurants, soccer clubs, parks, performance venues and sports stores. Km de Vantagens program has registered, to date, 345 million transactions, a number that has been growing annually. More than 100 million items have been redeemed since its beginning.
Keeping the tradition of innovating in the customer relationship, Ultragaz has developed and brought to market in 2014 an application that allows consumers to order the LPG bottles by mobile phones. The novelty brought numerous benefits: for the reseller, the use of the application represents a reduction in fuel costs, higher productivity of the delivery teams and access to logistical and business management tools; for the consumer, the application reduces expenses with telephone calls and provides convenience, quality and excellence in serving their demands. Seeking greater customer loyalty, Ultragaz launched a partnership with Ipiranga to offer the Km de Vantagens to their consumers, who will enjoy the benefits already earned by Ipiranga consumers.
Extrafarma offers Club Extra, a relationship program provided to clients on the network that already has 2.4 million participants registered in its base. The initiative aims at recognizing the loyalty of its customers and to allow Extrafarma to better understand the consumption habits of its audience.
Shareholders' return and capital markets
Ultrapar ended 2014 with a market value of R$ 29 billion. At BM&FBOVESPA, Ultrapar's shares ended 2014 quoted at R$ 51.45, with an accumulated depreciation of 8% in 2013, despite the 8% growth in the EBITDA and 2% growth in net earnings, while Ibovespa index depreciated by 3%. At the NYSE, Ultrapar's shares depreciated by 19%, influenced by the devaluation of the Real against the US dollar, while the Dow Jones appreciated by 8%, as a result of signs of recovery of U.S. economy. Since its IPO, in 1999, Ultrapar’s shares recorded total shareholder return of 22% per year.
The year 2014 was marked by the sharp increase in trading liquidity of the company's shares. Ultrapar's average daily trading volume in 2014 totaled R$ 89 million/day, 27% above the average amount registered in 2013, considering the combined trading of the company's shares on the BM&FBOVESPA and the NYSE.
For the year 2014, Ultrapar declared dividends of R$ 779 million, an increase of 5% compared to the previous year. This amount represents a dividend yield of 3% on the average share price in 2014. In December 2014, a repurchase program of Ultrapar's shares of up to 6,5 million common shares was approved, representing 1.2% of the total shares outstanding of Ultrapar.
Relationship with Independent Auditors
The policies of Ultrapar and its subsidiaries in hiring the services of independent auditors aim to ensure there is no conflict of interest and loss of independence or objectivity and are based on principles that preserve the auditor's independence.
In the year ended December 31, 2014, Ultrapar and its subsidiaries did not hire from their independent auditors any job not directly related to the auditing of the financial statements. The total amount of fees to the independent auditors regarding audit services related to the financial statements of 2014 was R$ 4.6 million.
Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu began its external audit services for Ultrapar in 2012.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE IN 2014
Standards and criteria applied in the preparation of the information
The financial information presented in this document has been extracted from the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), and according to the pronouncements issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee ("CPC"), and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission ("CVM"). The financial information of Ultrapar corresponds to the company's consolidated information. Information of Ipiranga, Oxiteno, Ultragaz, Ultracargo and Extrafarma is reported without elimination of intercompany transactions. Therefore, the sum of such information may not correspond to the consolidated information of Ultrapar. In addition, the financial and operational information presented in this document is subject to rounding off and, consequently, the total amounts presented in the tables and charts may differ from the direct sum of the amounts that precede them.
In September 2013, Ultrapar entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma. The transaction was closed on January 31, 2014 upon the approval of the association by the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. Extrafarma's results were consolidated in Ultrapar's financial statements as from February 1, 2014. Consequently, Ultrapar's financial statements for the periods prior to February 1, 2014 do not include Extrafarma's results and its operational data included in this release refer, for the year 2014, exclusively to the months from February to December 2014. With the purpose of providing a comparison basis for analysis of the evolution in the performance of Extrafarma, we present its results for 2013 including the months from February to December 2013.
EBITDA – Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, and EBIT – Earnings Before Interest and Taxes, are presented in accordance with CVM Instruction No. 527, issued by CVM on October 4, 2012. The calculation of EBITDA from net earnings is presented below:

R$ million | 2014 | 2013 | D (%)
2014x2013
Net income | 1,251 | 1,229 | 2%
(+) Income tax and social contribution | 573 | 573 |
(+) Net financial expense (revenue) | 445 | 338 |
(+) Depreciation and amortization | 888 | 779 |
EBITDA | 3,158 | 2,918 | 8%

The EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) presented in this document represents the net income before (i) income and social contribution taxes, (ii) net financial expense (income) and (iii) depreciation and amortization, presented in accordance with ICVM 527. The purpose of including EBITDA information is to provide a measure used by the management for internal assessment of our operating results, besides being a directly or indirectly related measure to a portion of our employee profit sharing plan. It is also a financial indicator widely used by investors and analysts to measure our ability to generate cash from operations and our operating performance. We also calculate EBITDA in connection with covenants related to some of our financing, as described in note 14 to the financial statements. We believe EBITDA allows a better understanding not only of our financial performance but also of our capacity of meeting the payment of interest and principal from our debt and of obtaining resources for our investments and working capital. Our definition of EBITDA may differ from, and, therefore, may not be comparable with similarly titled measures used by other companies, thereby limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because EBITDA excludes net financial expense (income), income tax and social contribution, depreciation and amortization, it provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by debt restructurings, fluctuations in interest rates or changes in income tax and social contribution, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting practices adopted in Brazil or IFRS. 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. EBITDA has material limitations that impair its value as a measure of a company’s overall profitability since it does not address certain ongoing costs of our business that could significantly affect profitability such as financial expenses and income taxes and depreciation and amortization.

ECONOMIC AND OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT
Deterioration of macroeconomic environment continued in 2014, as in 2013. The scenario was formed by the combination of inflation above the target, weak economic activity, expansionary fiscal policy and rising interest rates. With the purpose of curbing the growing inflation rates verified over the year, the Brazilian Central Bank raised the basic interest rate of the economy, from 10% at the end of 2013 to 11.75% at the end of 2014. GDP growth expectations in 2014, measured by the Central Bank’s Focus report, started the year with a perspective of 2.0% and are currently pointing towards a negative progression. Despite the weak performance of the Brazilian economy, in contrast to a rebound of the U.S. economy, the Real remained relatively stable against the dollar until third quarter, when the devaluation started. The average Real to dollar exchange rate in 2014 was R$ 2.35/US$ compared to R$ 2.16/US$ in 2013, but reaching R$ 2.66/US$ by the end of 2014. The number of light vehicles licensed totaled 3.3 million in 2014, which lead to a 6% growth of the fleet in 2014. Sales in the retail pharmacy sector, according to data from members of Abrafarma, grew 13% in 2014, continuing the growth seen in recent years.
Operational performance
At Ipiranga, the volume sold in 2014 increased by 3.5% over 2013, totaling 25,614 thousand cubic meters. In 2014, sales volume of gasoline, ethanol and natural gas for vehicles (Otto cycle) increased by 8% compared to 2013, as a result of an estimated 6% growth of the light vehicles fleet and investments made in new service stations and conversion of unbranded service stations. The total volume of diesel remained stable, with an increase of 3% in the reseller segment, which is the result of investments for the expansion of the network, offset by the weak performance of the economy. At Oxiteno, specialty chemicals sales reached 673 thousand tons in 2014, a 2% drop compared to the previous year, mainly due to the slowdown of the Brazilian economy and the decision to reduce the level of operations in Venezuela since the beginning of 2014, as a result of the limitations in importing raw material in that country. The reduction in specialty chemicals was offset by the increase of 21% in sales of glycols, and Oxiteno's total volume sold remained stable compared to 2013. The growth in the volume of glycols is mainly derived from a lower level of sales of this product in 2013, due to a scheduled stoppage in the Camaçari petrochemical complex in the second semester of 2013. Ultragaz's sales volume reached 1,711 thousand tons in 2014, an increase of 1% over 2013, due to growth of 2% in the bottled segment and growth in small- and medium-business and residential condominiums, due to commercial initiatives focused on convenience and services. Ultracargo's average storage grew 3% compared to 2013, driven by higher demand of fuel oil for thermoelectric plants and automotive fuels, which were made possible by investments made in recent years. Extrafarma ended the year with 223 stores in the North and Northeast regions, a 14% growth compared to the end of 2013.

Net revenue from sales and services
Ultrapar's net revenue from sales and services totaled R$ 67,736 million in 2014, an 11% growth over 2013. In the same comparison, Ipiranga's net sales and services increased by 10% due to (i) increased sales volume, (ii) the rise in diesel, gasoline and, consequently, ethanol costs, (iii) improved sales mix, resulting from investments in the expansion of the service station network, which enabled an increased share of Otto cycle and of diesel sold through the reseller segment and (iv) the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience in the service station, generating greater customer satisfaction and loyalty. Oxiteno reported growth of 4% in net sales and services, primarily due to the 9% weaker Real, partially offset by the increased share of commodities in sales mix and lower international prices of glycols.

Ultrapar Participações S.A.
São Paulo - SP

(the “Company”), identified as Parent and Consolidated, respectively, which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2014, and the statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management’s responsibility for the financial statements
Company’s Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the individual and consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil and in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards - IFRSs, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB, and for such internal control as Management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Brazilian and international standards on auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion
In our opinion, the individual and consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the individual and consolidated financial position of Ultrapar Participações S.A. as of December 31, 2014, its individual and consolidated financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil and with IFRSs, as issued by the IASB.
Other matters
Statements of value added
We have also audited the individual and consolidated statements of value added (“DVA”) for the year ended December 31, 2014, prepared under the responsibility of the Company’s Management, the presentation of which is required by Brazilian corporate law for publicly-traded companies, and as supplemental information for IFRSs, that do not require the presentation of DVA. These statements were subject to the same auditing procedures described above and, in our opinion, are fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
The accompanying financial statements have been translated into English for the convenience of readers outside Brazil.

The Company’s individual and consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil.
The accounting practices adopted in Brazil comprise the Brazilian Corporate Law and the Pronouncements, Guidelines and Interpretations issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (“CPC”) and approved by the Federal Accounting Council (“CFC”) and the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (“CVM”).
The presentation currency of the Company’s individual and consolidated financial statements is the Brazilian Real (“R$”), which is the Company’s functional currency.
The accounting policies described below were applied by the Company and its subsidiaries in a consistent manner for all years presented in the individual and consolidated financial statements.

a. | Recognition of Income

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of sales returns, discounts, and other deductions, if applicable.
Revenue from sales of fuels and lubricants is recognized when the products are delivered to gas stations and to large consumers. Revenue from sales of LPG is recognized when the products are delivered to customers at home, to independent dealers and to industrial and commercial customers. Revenue from sales of pharmaceuticals is recognized when the products are delivered to end user customers in own drugstores and when the products are delivered to independent resellers. Revenue from sales of chemical products is recognized when the products are delivered to industrial customers, depending of the freight mode of delivery. The revenue provided from storage services is recognized through the performance of services. Costs of products sold and services provided include goods (mainly fuels, lubricants, LPG, and pharmaceutical products), raw materials (chemicals and petrochemicals) and production, distribution, storage, and filling costs.

b. | Cash and Cash Equivalents

Includes cash, banks deposits, and 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 4 for further details on cash and cash equivalents of the Company and its subsidiaries.

c. | Financial Assets

In accordance with IAS 32, IAS 39, and IFRS 7 (CPC 38, 39 and 40 (R1)), the financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries are classified in accordance with the following categories:

• | Measured at fair value through profit or loss: financial assets held for trading, that is, acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term, and derivatives. The balances are stated at fair value. The interest earned, the exchange variation, and changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss.

(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)

• | Held to maturity: non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments, and fixed maturities for which the entity has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. The interest earned and the foreign currency exchange variation are recognized in profit or loss, and balances are stated at acquisition cost plus the interest earned, using the effective interest rate method.
• | Available for sale: non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sale or that are not classified into other categories at initial recognition. The balances are stated at fair value, and the interest earned and the foreign currency exchange variation are recognized in profit or loss. Differences between fair value and acquisition cost plus the interest earned are recognized in cumulative other comprehensive income in the shareholders’ equity portion of the balance sheet. Accumulated gains and losses recognized in the shareholders’ equity are reclassified to profit or loss in case of prepayment.
• | Loans and receivables: non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments or receipts, not quoted in an active market, except: (i) those which the entity intends to sell immediately or in the near term and which the entity classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss; (ii) those classified as available for sale; or (iii) those for which the Company may not recover substantially all of its initial investment for reasons other than credit deterioration. The interest earned and the foreign currency exchange variation are recognized in profit or loss. The balances are stated at acquisition cost plus interest, using the effective interest rate method. Loans and receivables include cash and banks, trade receivables, dividends receivable, and other trade receivables.

The Company and its subsidiaries use derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes, applying the concepts described below:

• | Hedge accounting - fair value hedge: derivative financial instruments used to hedge exposure to changes in the fair value of an item, attributable to a particular risk, which can affect the entity’s profit or loss. In the initial designation of the fair value hedge, the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item is documented, including the objectives of risk management, the strategy in conducting the transaction, and the methods to be used to evaluate its effectiveness. Once the fair value hedge has been qualified as effective, the hedge item is also measured at fair value. Gains and losses from hedge instruments and hedge items are recognized in profit or loss. The hedge accounting must be discontinued when the hedge becomes ineffective.
• | Hedge accounting - cash flow hedge: derivative financial instruments used to hedge the exposure to variability in cash flows that is attributable to a risk associated with an asset or liability or highly probable transaction that may affect the income statements. The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be effective relating to the effects of exchange rate effect, is recognized directly in equity in accumulated other comprehensive income as “Valuation adjustments” while the ineffective portion is recognized in profit or loss. Gains or losses on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of this hedge that had been recognized directly in accumulated other comprehensive income shall be recognized in profit or loss in the period in which the hedged item is recognized in profit or loss in the same line of the income statement that the hedged item is recognized. The hedge accounting shall be discontinued when (i) the Company cancels the hedging relationship; (ii) the hedging instrument expires; and (iii) the hedging instrument no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. When hedge accounting is discontinued, gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the period which the hedged item is recognized in profit or loss. If the transaction hedged is canceled or is not expected to occur, the cumulative gains and losses in other comprehensive income in equity shall be recognized immediately in profit or loss.
• | Hedge accounting - hedge of net investments in foreign operation: derivative financial instruments used to hedge exposure on net investments in foreign subsidiaries due to the fact that the local functional currency is different from the functional currency of the Company. The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be effective, referring to the exchange rate effect, is recognized directly in equity in accumulated other comprehensive income as cumulative translation adjustments, while the ineffective portion and the operating costs are recognized in profit or loss. The gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized directly in accumulated other comprehensive income shall be recognized in income upon disposal of the foreign operation.

For further detail on financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries, see Notes 4, 14, and 22.

d. | Trade Receivables

Trade receivables are recognized at the amount invoiced, adjusted to present value if applicable, and includes all direct taxes attributable to the Company and its subsidiaries. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based on estimated losses and is set at an amount deemed by management to be sufficient to cover any probable loss on realization of trade receivables (see Notes 5 and 22 - Customer Credit Risk).

e. | Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of acquisition cost or net realizable value (see Note 6). The cost value of inventory is measured using the weighted average cost and includes the costs of acquisition and processing directly related to the units produced based on the normal capacity of production. Estimates of net realizable value are based on the average selling prices at the end of the reporting period, net of applicable direct selling expenses. Subsequent events related to the fluctuation of prices and costs are also considered, if relevant. If net realizable values are below inventory costs, a provision corresponding to this difference is recognized. Provisions are also made for obsolescence of products, materials, or supplies that (i) do not meet the Company and its subsidiaries’ specifications, (ii) have exceeded their expiration date, or (iii) are considered slow-moving inventory. This classification is made by management with the support of its industrial and operations teams.

f. | Investments

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method of accounting in the individual financial statements of the parent company.
Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for under the equity method of accounting in the individual and consolidated financial statements (see Note 11).
An associate is an investment, in which an investor has significant influence, that is, has the power to participate in the financial and operating decisions of the investee but without exercise control.
A joint venture is an investment in which the shareholders have the right to net assets on behalf of a joint control. Joint control is the agreement which establish that decisions about the relevant activities of the investee require the consent from the parties that share control.
Other investments are stated at acquisition cost less provision for losses, unless the loss is considered temporary.

g. | Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment is recognized at acquisition or construction cost, including financial charges incurred on property, plant, and equipment under construction, as well as maintenance costs resulting from scheduled plant outages and estimated costs to remove, to decommission, or to restore assets (see Notes 2.m and 18).
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method, for the periods mentioned in Note 12, taking into account the useful life of the assets, which are reviewed annually.
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the lease contract term and useful life of the property.

h. | Leases

• Finance Leases
Certain 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 capitalized at lease commencement at their fair value or, if lower, present value of the minimum lease payments under the contracts. The items recognized as assets are depreciated and amortized using the lower of the straight-line method based on the useful lives applicable to each group of assets or the contract terms, as mentioned in Notes 12 and 13. Financial charges under the finance lease contracts are allocated to profit or loss over the lease contract term, based on the amortized cost and the effective interest rate method of the related lease obligation (see Note 14.j).

(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)
• Operating Leases
There are lease transactions where the risks and benefits associated with the ownership of the asset are not transferred and where there is no purchase option, or 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 cost or expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease contract (see Note 23.g).

i. | Intangible Assets

Intangible assets include assets acquired by the Company and its subsidiaries from third parties, according to the criteria below (see Note 13):

| • | Goodwill is carried net of accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2008, when it ceased to be amortized. Goodwill generated since January 1, 2009 is shown as intangible assets corresponding to the positive difference between the amount paid or payable to the seller and the fair value of the identified assets and liabilities assumed of the acquired entity, and is tested annually for impairment. Goodwill is allocated to the respective cash generating units (“CGU”) for impairment testing purposes.
| • | Bonus disbursements as provided in Ipiranga’s agreements with reseller service stations and major consumers are recognized as distribution rights when paid and amortized using the straight-line method according to the term of the agreement.
| • | Other intangible assets acquired from third parties, such as software, technology, and commercial property rights, are measured at the total acquisition cost and amortized using straight-line method, for the periods mentioned in Note 13, taking into account their useful life, which is reviewed annually.

The Company and its subsidiaries have not recognized intangible assets that were created internally. The Company and its subsidiaries have not recognized other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life, except for goodwill, the “am/pm” brand and “Extrafarma” brand acquired in 2014 (see Note 3.a).

j. | Other Assets

Other assets are stated at the lower of cost and realizable value, including, if applicable, 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 2.u).

k. | Financial Liabilities

The Company and its subsidiaries’ financial liabilities include trade payables and other payables, loans, debentures, and hedging instruments. Financial liabilities are classified as “financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” or “financial liabilities at amortized cost”. The financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss refer to derivative financial instruments, subscription warrants, and financial liabilities designated as hedged items in a fair value hedge relationship upon initial recognition (see Note 2.c – Fair Value Hedge). The financial liabilities at amortized cost are stated at the initial transaction amount plus related charges and transaction costs, net of amortization. The charges are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest rate method.
Transaction costs incurred and directly attributable to the activities necessary for contracting loans or for issuing bonds, as well as premiums and discounts upon issuance of debentures and other debt, are allocated to the instrument and amortized to profit or loss over its term, using the effective interest rate method (see Note 14.k). Transaction costs incurred and directly attributable to the issue of shares or other equity instruments are recognized in equity and are not amortized.

l. | Income and Social Contribution Taxes on Income

Current and deferred income tax (“IRPJ”) and social contribution on net income tax (“CSLL”) are calculated based on their current rates, considering the value of tax incentives. Taxes are recognized based on the rates of IRPJ and CSLL provided for by the laws enacted on the last day of the reporting period. The current rates in Brazil are 25% for income tax and 9% for social contribution on net income tax. For further details about recognition and realization of IRPJ and CSLL, see Note 9.

m. | Provision for Asset Retirement Obligation – Fuel Tanks

The Company and its subsidiaries have the legal obligation to remove Ipiranga’s underground fuel tanks located at Ipiranga-branded service stations after a certain period. The estimated cost of the obligation to remove these fuel tanks is recognized as a liability when tanks are installed. The estimated cost is recognized in property, plant, and equipment and depreciated over the respective useful life of the tanks. The amounts recognized as a liability are monetarily restated using the National Consumer Price Index - IPCA until the respective tank is removed (see Note 18). An increase in the estimated cost of the obligation to remove the tanks could result in negative impact in future results. The estimated removal cost is reviewed and updated annually or when there is significant change in its amount and change in the estimated costs are recognized in income when they become known.

n. | Provisions for Tax, Civil, and Labor Risks

A provision for tax, civil and labor risks is recognized for quantifiable risks, when the chance of loss is more-likely-than-not in the opinion of management and internal and external legal counsel, and the amounts are recognized based on evaluation of the outcomes of the legal proceedings (see Note 23 items a,b,c,d).

o. | Post-Employment Benefits

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 (see Note 24.b). The actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in the statement of shareholders’ equity. Past service cost is recognized in the income statement.

p. | Other Liabilities

Other liabilities are stated at known or measurable amounts plus, if applicable, related charges, monetary restatement, and changes in exchange rates incurred. When applicable, other liabilities are recognized at present value, based on interest rates that reflect the term, currency, and risk of each transaction.

q. | Foreign Currency Transactions

Foreign currency transactions carried out by the Company or its subsidiaries are remeasured into their functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of each transaction. Outstanding monetary assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. The effect of the difference between those exchange rates is recognized in profit or loss until the conclusion of each transaction.

r. | Basis for Translation of Financial Statements of Foreign Subsidiaries

Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries, denominated in currencies other than that of the Company (functional currency: Brazilian Real), which have administrative autonomy, are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate of each period and shareholders’ equity is translated at the historic exchange rate of each transaction affecting shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized in the statement of shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments and will be recognized in profit or loss if these investments are disposed of. The balance in cumulative other comprehensive income and presented in the shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments, net of the exchange rate effect of hedge of net investments, in 2014 was a gain of R$ 43,192 (gain of R$ 38,076 in 2013).
The foreign subsidiaries with functional currency different from the Company and which have administrative autonomy are listed below:

Subsidiary | Functional currency | Location
Oxiteno México S.A. de C.V. | Mexican Peso | Mexico
Oxiteno Servicios Corporativos S.A. de C.V. | Mexican Peso | Mexico
Oxiteno Servicios Industriales de C.V. | Mexican Peso | Mexico
Oxiteno USA LLC | U.S. Dollar | United States
Oxiteno Andina, C.A. | Bolivar | Venezuela
Oxiteno Uruguay S.A. | U.S. Dollar | Uruguay

(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)
The subsidiary Oxiteno Uruguay S.A. (“Oxiteno Uruguay”) determined its functional currency as the U.S. dollar (“US$”), as its sales, purchases of goods, and financing activities are performed substantially in this currency.
According to IAS 29, Venezuela is classified as a hyperinflationary economy. As a result, the financial statements of Oxiteno Andina, C.A. (“Oxiteno Andina”) were adjusted by the Venezuelan Consumer Price Index.
Until December 31, 2014 Venezuela had three spot exchange rates:
a) CENCOEX - Centro Nacional de Comercio Exterior en Venezuela: Bolivar (“VEF”) is traded at a fixed exchange rate of 6.30 VEF/US$. The applicant makes the request for authorization of payment and receipt of priority transactions. There is no deadline for approval by CENCOEX;
b) SICAD-I - Sistema Cambiario Alternativo de Divisas I: Bolivar is traded at variable exchange rate of approximately 12.00 VEF/US$. There are a number of requirements for the approval of the transactions traded using this rate, which is the most likely exchange rate for the payment of dividends and repatriation of capital; and
c) SICAD-II - Sistema Cambiario Alternativo de Divisas II: Bolivar is traded at variable exchange rate of approximately 50.00 VEF/US$. Other transactions may be realized by SICAD-II.
For the consolidation of the Oxiteno Andina in the Company, the amounts in Bolivar have been translated to the U.S. dollar at the exchange rate of SICAD-I and subsequently translated into Brazilian Reais using the official exchange rate published by the Central Bank of Brazil. In management's judgment, the use of SICAD-I is the most suitable for conversion, since the exchange rate is the most likely rate for the payment of dividends and repatriation of capital.
On February 10, 2015, the Venezuelan Central Bank issued Foreign Exchange Regulation No. 33 altering the Venezuelan foreign exchange markets. The Company analyzed this new regulation and concluded that there should be no impact on the translation of the financial statements of its subsidiary Oxiteno Andina.
Assets and liabilities of the other foreign subsidiaries, which do not have administrative autonomy, are considered an extension of the activities of their parent company and are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized as financial income or loss. The gain recognized in income in 2014 amounted to R$ 2,906 (R$ 4,845 gain in 2013).

s. | Use of Estimates, Assumptions and Judgments

The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments for the accounting of certain assets, liabilities, and income. Therefore, the Company’s and subsidiaries’ management use the best information available at the time of preparation of the financial statements, as well as the experience of past and current events, also considering assumptions regarding future events. The financial statements therefore include estimates, assumptions, and judgments related mainly to determining the fair value of financial instruments (Notes 4, 14 and 22), the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts (Notes 5 and 22), the determination of provisions for losses of inventories (Note 6), the determination of deferred income taxes amounts (Note 9), the determination of control in subsidiaries (Notes 2.f, 2.r, 3, 3.a, 3.b, and 11.a), the determination of joint control in joint venture (Notes 2.f, 11.a and 11.b), the determination of significant influence in associates (Notes 2.f and 11.c), the useful lives of property, plant, and equipment (Note 12), the useful lives of intangible assets, and the determination of the recoverable amount of goodwill (Note 13), provisions for assets retirement obligations (Note 18), provisions for tax, civil, and labor risks (Note 23 items a,b,c,d), estimates for the preparation of actuarial reports (Note 24.b) and the determination of fair value of subscription warrants – indemnification (Notes 3.a and 22). The actual result of the transactions and information may differ from their estimates.

t. | Impairment of Assets

The Company and its subsidiaries review, at least annually, the existence of any indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is an indication, the Company and its subsidiaries estimate the recoverable amount of the asset. Assets that cannot be evaluated individually are grouped in the smallest group of assets that generate cash flow from continuous use and that are largely independent of cash flows of other assets (CGU). The recoverable amount of assets or CGUs corresponds to the greater of their fair value net of applicable direct selling costs and their value in use.
The fair value less costs of disposal is determined by the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, net of costs of removing the asset, and direct incremental costs to bring an asset into condition for its sale, legal costs, and taxes.

Ultrapar Participações S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Financial Statements
(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)
To assess the value in use, the Company and its subsidiaries consider the projections of future cash flows, trends, and outlooks, as well as the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. Such cash flows are discounted to their present values ​​using the discount rate before tax that reflects market conditions for the period of impairment testing and the specific risks of the asset or CGU being evaluated. In cases where the expected discounted future cash flows are less than their carrying amount, the impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of these assets. Losses for impairment of assets are recognized in profit or loss. In case goodwill has been allocated to a CGU, the recognized losses are first allocated to reduce the corresponding goodwill. If the goodwill is not enough to absorb such losses, the surplus is allocated to the assets on a pro-rata basis. An impairment of goodwill cannot be reversed. For other assets, impairment losses may be reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if the impairment had not been recognized.
No impairment was recognized in the years presented (see Note 13.i).

u. | Adjustment to Present Value

Some of the Company’s subsidiaries recognized a present value adjustment to Tax on Goods and Services (“ICMS”, the Brazilian VAT) credit balances related to property, plant, and equipment (CIAP). Because recovery of these credits occurs over a 48 month period, the present value adjustment reflects, in the financial statements, the time value of the ICMS credits to be recovered. The balance of these adjustment to present value totaled R$ 279 in 2014 (R$ 354 in 2013).
The Company and its subsidiaries reviewed all items classified as non-current and, when relevant, current assets and liabilities, and did not identify the need to recognize other present value adjustments.

v. | Statements of Value Added

As required by Brazilian Corporate Law, the Company and its subsidiaries prepare the individual and consolidated statements of value added (“DVA”) according to CPC 09 – Statement of Value Added, as an integral part of the financial statements as applicable to publicly-traded companies, and as supplemental information for IFRS, which does not require the presentation of DVA.

w. | Adoption of the Pronouncements Issued by CPC and IFRS

The following standards, interpretations and amendments in IFRS issued by IASB are effective on December 31st, 2014 and were adopted by the Company and its subsidiaries:

· | Amendments to IAS 27 – Separate Financial Statements: allows that entities use the equity method to account for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates in their separate financial statements. For IFRS purposes, the effective date is from 2016, with early adoption allowed. For CPC purposes, the effective date is from 2014. The Company already adopted the equity method and after the amendments to IAS 27 the individual financial statements are then presented in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.

· | Amendments to IAS 32 – Financial Instruments Presentation: provides clarifications on the application of offsetting requirements. There was no impact on the financial statements.

· | International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) 21 – Levies: provides guidance when to recognize a liability for levies that are accounted for in accordance with IAS 37 and those where the timing and amount of the levy is certain. There was no impact on the financial statements.

(*) On July 24, 2014, the IASB issued the final version of IFRS 9, with the mandatory effective date set for January 1, 2018.
CPC has not yet issued pronouncements equivalent to IFRS 9 and IFRS 15, but is expected to do so before the date they become effective. The adoption of IFRS pronouncements is subject to prior approval by the CVM. The Company is assessing the potential effects of these standards.

x. | Authorization for Issuance of the Financial Statements

These financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on February 25, 2015.

3. | Principles of Consolidation and Investments in Subsidiaries

The consolidated financial statements were prepared following the basic principles of consolidation established by IFRS 10 (CPC 36 (R3)). Investments of one company in another, balances of asset and liability accounts, and revenues and expenses were eliminated, as well as the effects of transactions conducted between the companies. Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries are presented within consolidated shareholders’ equity and net income.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the parent company obtains direct or indirect control over a company and ceases when the parent company loses control of a company. Income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired are included in the consolidated income statement and other comprehensive income from the date the parent company gains the control. Income and expenses of a subsidiary, in which the parent company loses control, are included in the consolidated income statement and other comprehensive income until the date the parent company loses control.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Company’s accounting policies.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)
a) Business Combination – Acquisition of Extrafarma
On January 31, 2014 the merger of all shares issued by Extrafarma into Ultrapar was approved by the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. After the merger of shares, Extrafarma became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultrapar and the former shareholders of Extrafarma became long-term shareholders of Ultrapar. The association with Extrafarma marks Ultrapar’s entry into Brazil's retail pharmacy sector, making it the third distribution and specialty retail business of the Company.
As a result, 12,021,100 new ordinary, nominative, book-entry shares with no par value of the Company were issued on January 31, 2014, increasing capital share by R$ 141,913. These resulted in total capital share of R$ 3,838,686, represented by 556,405,096 shares and increasing capital reserves by R$ 498,812, totaling an increase in equity in the amount of R$ 640,725. This transaction did not affect the Company’ cash flow.
In addition, the Company issued subscription warrants that, if exercised, would lead to the issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, broken down into 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital and 3,205,622 shares related to subscription warrants – indemnification. On June 30, 2014, in the assessment of the working capital and indebtedness adjustments the Company identified that the subscription warrants – working capital shall not be exercised by the former shareholders of Extrafarma. Accordingly, the Company reversed full provision for the issuance of 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital, which at the acquisition date amounted to R$ 42,138. Additionally, the Company determined that it has a receivable in the amount of R$ 12,222 due to the adjustment of working capital, recognized in “Other receivables” in current assets. The shares of the subscription warrants – indemnification may be exercised as early as 2020 and are adjusted according to the changes in the amounts of provision for tax, civil, and labor risks and contingent liabilities related to the period previous to January 31, 2014. The subscription warrants – indemnification fair value are measured based on the share price of Ultrapar (UGPA3) and are reduced by the dividend yield until 2020, since the exercise is possible only from 2020, and they are not entitled to dividends until that date. On the reporting date, the subscription warrants – indemnification were represented by 2,002,773 shares and totaled R$ 92,072 (on the acquisition date they were represented by 1.959.576 and totaled R$ 91,423).
The purchase price is presented below:

Increase in share capital |  |  | 141,913 |
Capital surplus on subscription of shares |  |  | 498,812 |
Receivables - working capital adjustments |  |  | (12,222 | )
Subscription warrants – indemnification |  |  | 91,423 |
Purchase price |  |  | 719,926 |

The purchase price in the amount of R$ 719,926 was allocated among the identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed, measured at fair value. The Company measured the opening balance, fair value of assets and liabilities, and, consequently, the goodwill. The purchase price allocation was concluded in December, 2014. The goodwill is R$ 661,553, which is motivated by the Company's entry into the pharmaceutical retail and wholesale markets in Brazil and by Extrafarma bringing a significant initial scale, an excellent network of drugstores as a starting point and specific knowledge and expertise of the market sector. The deductible tax basis of goodwill is R$ 780,239. During the process of identification of assets and liabilities, intangible assets which were not recognized in the acquired entity’s books were also taken into account, as shown below:

| Amount |  | Useful life |  | Amortization method
Brand – Extrafarma | 72,523 |  | Undefined |  | -
Loyalty program – Club Extra | 31,953 |  | 4 years |  | Straight line
Customer relationship - wholesale | 17,346 |  | 10 years |  | Straight line
Other | 517 |  | By contracts |  | Straight line
Total | 122,339 |  |  |  |

c. | Deferred Stock Plan
On April 27, 2001, the General Shareholders’ Meeting approved a benefit plan to members of management and employees in executive positions in the Company and its subsidiaries. On November 26, 2003, the Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting approved certain amendments to the original plan of 2001 (the “Deferred Stock Plan”). In the Deferred Stock Plan, certain members of management of the Company and its subsidiaries have the voting and economic rights of shares and the ownership of these shares is retained by the subsidiaries of the Company. The Deferred Stock Plan provides for the transfer of the ownership of the shares to those eligible members of management after five to ten years from the initial concession of the rights subject to uninterrupted employment of the participant during the period. The total number of shares to be used for the Deferred Stock Plan is subject to the availability in treasury of such shares. It is incumbent on Ultrapar’s executive officers to select the members of management eligible for the plan and propose the number of shares in each case for approval by the Board of Directors. The fair value of the awards were determined on the grant date based on the market value of the shares on the BM&FBOVESPA S.A. – Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias e Futuros (“BM&FBOVESPA”), the Brazilian Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange and the amounts are amortized between five and ten years from the grant date.

(*) For further information about the goodwill of Extrafarma, see Note 3.a).
On December 31, 2014, the Company tested the balances of goodwill shown in the table above for impairment. The determination of value in use involves assumptions, judgments, and estimates of cash flows, such as growth rates of revenues, costs and expenses, estimates of investments and working capital, and discount rates. The assumptions about growth projections and future cash flows are based on the Company's business plan, as well as comparable market data, and represent management’s best estimate of the economic conditions that will exist over the economic life of the various CGUs, to which goodwill is related.
The evaluation of the value in use is calculated for a period of five years, after which we calculate the perpetuity, considering the possibility of carrying the business on indefinitely.
On December 31, 2014, the discount and real growth rates used to extrapolate the projections ranged from 9,3% to 26.4% and 0% to 3.8% p.a., respectively, depending on the CGU analyzed.
The Company’s goodwill impairment tests did not result in the recognition of losses for the year ended December 31, 2014.

22 | Risks and Financial Instruments (Consolidated)

Risk Management and Financial Instruments - Governance
The main risks to which the Company and its subsidiaries are exposed reflect strategic/operational and economic/financial aspects. Operational/strategic risks (including, but not limited to, demand behavior, competition, technological innovation, and material changes in the industry structure) are addressed by the Company’s management model. Economic/financial risks primarily reflect default of customers, behavior of macroeconomic variables, such as exchange and interest rates, as well as the characteristics of the financial instruments used by the Company and its subsidiaries and their counterparties. These risks are managed through control policies, specific strategies, and the establishment of limits.
The Company has a conservative policy for the management of resources, financial instruments, and risks approved by its Board of Directors (“Policy”). In accordance with the Policy, the main objectives of financial management are to preserve the value and liquidity of financial assets and ensure financial resources for the development of the business, including expansions. The main financial risks considered in the Policy are risks associated with currencies, interest rates, credit, and selection of financial instruments. Governance of the management of financial risks and financial instruments follows the segregation of duties below:

• | Implementation of the management of financial assets, instruments, and risks is the responsibility of the financial area, through its treasury department, with the assistance of the tax and accounting departments.
• | Supervision and monitoring of compliance with the principles, guidelines, and standards of the Policy is the responsibility of the Risk and Investment Committee, which is 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, fundraising, 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 Board of Directors of Ultrapar.
• | Continuous improvement of the Policy is the joint responsibility of the Board of Directors, the Committee, and the financial area.

• | The internal audit department audits the compliance with the requirements of the Policy.

Currency Risk
Most transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries are located in Brazil and, therefore, the reference currency for risk management is the Brazilian 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 Company and its subsidiaries use exchange rate hedging instruments (especially between the Brazilian Real and the U.S. dollar) available in the financial market to protect their assets, liabilities, receipts, and disbursements in foreign currency and net investments in foreign operations. Hedge is used in order to reduce the effects of changes in exchange rates on the Company´s income and cash flows in Brazilian 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 currencies to which they are related. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are stated below, translated into Brazilian Reais in 2014 and 2013:

Interest Rate Risk
The Company and its subsidiaries adopt conservative policies for borrowing and investing financial resources and for capital cost minimization. The financial investments of the Company and its subsidiaries are primarily held in transactions linked to the CDI, as set forth in Note 4. Borrowings primarily relate to financing from Banco do Brasil, BNDES, and other development agencies, as well as debentures and borrowings in foreign currency, as shown in Note 14.
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. In 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had interest rate derivative financial instruments linked to domestic loans, in which the Company swapped the fixed interest rate of certain debts to floating interest rates (CDI).
The table below shows the financial assets and liabilities exposed to floating interest rates in 2014 and 2013:

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 bank deposits, financial investments, hedging instruments, and trade receivables.
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 volume of cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and hedging instruments are subject to maximum limits by each institution and, therefore, require diversification of counterparties.
Government credit risk - The Company's policy allows investments in government securities from countries classified as investment grade AAA or Aaa by specialized credit rating agencies and in Brazilian government bonds. The volume of such financial investments is subject to maximum limits by each country and, therefore, requires diversification of counterparties.
Customer credit risk - Such risks are managed by each business unit through specific criteria for acceptance of customers and their credit rating and are additionally mitigated by the diversification of sales. No single customer or group accounts for more than 10% of total revenue.

Liquidity Risk
The Company and its subsidiaries’ main sources of liquidity derive from (i) cash, cash equivalents, and financial investments, (ii) cash generated from operations and (iii) financing. The Company and its subsidiaries believe that these sources are sufficient to satisfy their current funding requirements, which include, but are not limited to, working capital, capital expenditures, amortization of debt, and payment of dividends.
The Company and its subsidiaries periodically examine opportunities for acquisitions and investments. They consider different types of investments, either directly, through joint ventures, or through associated companies, and finance such investments using cash generated from operations, debt financing, through capital increases, or through a combination of these methods.
The Company and its subsidiaries believe to have enough working capital to satisfy their current needs. The gross indebtedness due over the next twelve months totals R$ 3,791.1 million, including estimated interests on loans. Furthermore, the investment plan for 2015 totals R$ 1,418 million. In 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had R$ 4,269.2 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term financial investments (for quantitative information, see Notes 4 and 14).
The table below presents a summary of financial liabilities in 2014 to be settled by the Company and its subsidiaries, listed by maturity. The amounts disclosed in this table are the contractual undiscounted cash outflows, and, therefore, these amounts ​​may be different from the amounts disclosed on the balance sheet in 2014.

(1) To calculate the estimated interest on loans some macroeconomic assumptions were used, including averaging for the period the following: (i) CDI of 12.6 % p.a., (ii) exchange rate of the Real against the U.S. dollar of R$ 2.83 in 2015, R$ 3.09 in 2016, R$ 3.36 in 2017, R$ 3.64 in 2018, and R$ 3.94 in 2019, (iii) TJLP of 5.5% p.a. and (iv) IGP-M of 5.7% in 2015, 6.0% in 2016, 5.3% in 2017, 5.3% in 2018, and 5.3% in 2019 (source: BM&FBOVESPA, Bulletin Focus and financial institutions).
(2) Includes estimated interest payments on short-term and long-term loans until the payment date.
(3) The currency and interest rate hedging instruments were estimated based on projected U.S dollar futures contracts and the futures curve of DI x Pre contract quoted on BM&FBOVESPA as of December 30, 2014 and on the futures curve of LIBOR (ICE - IntercontinentalExchange) on December 31, 2014. In the table above, only the hedging instruments with negative results at the time of settlement were considered.

Capital Management
The Company manages its capital structure based on indicators and benchmarks. The key performance indicators related to the capital structure management are the weighted average cost of capital, net debt / EBITDA, interest coverage, and indebtedness / equity ratios. Net debt is composed of cash, cash equivalents, and financial investments (see Note 4) and loans, including debentures (see Note 14). The Company can change its capital structure depending on the economic and financial conditions, in order to optimize its financial leverage and capital management. The Company seeks to improve its return on invested capital by implementing efficient working capital management and a selective investment program.
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 a review is conducted of any 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, and 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 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”, 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. In addition, the internal audit department verifies the compliance with the requirements of the Policy.

Hedging instruments existing in 2014 are described below, according to their category, risk, and hedging strategy:
a - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of liabilities in foreign currency - The purpose of these contracts is (i) to offset the effect of the change in exchange rates of debts or firm commitments in U.S. dollars by converting them into debts or firm commitments in Brazilian Reais linked to CDI, and (ii) change a financial investment linked to the CDI and given as a guarantee to a loan in the U.S. dollar into a financial investment linked to the U.S. dollar. In 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had outstanding swap contracts totaling US$ 340.6 million in notional amount with a liability position, on average of 103.1 % of CDI, of which US$ 50.6 million, on average, had an asset position at US$ + 3.7 % p.a. and US$ 290.0 million had an asset position at US$ + LIBOR + 0.8% p.a.

b.1 - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of operations - The purpose of these contracts is to make the exchange rate of the revenues of subsidiaries Oleoquímica, Oxiteno S.A. and Oxiteno Nordeste equal to the exchange rate of the cost of their main raw materials during their operating cycles. In 2014, these swap contracts totaled US$ 11.9 million and, on average, had an asset position at 79.9% of CDI and a liability position at US$ + 0.0% p.a.
b.2 - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of net investments in foreign operations - The purpose of these contracts is to minimize the effect of exchange variation of investments in foreign subsidiaries with functional currencies different from the functional currency of the Company, turning them into investments in Brazilian Reais. In 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had outstanding swap contracts totaling US$ 31.0 million in notional amount with an asset position at 81.8% of CDI and a liability position of US$ + 0.0% p.a.
c - Hedging against the interest rate fixed in local financing - The purpose of these contracts is to convert the interest rate on financing contracted in Brazilian Reais from fixed into floating. In 2014 these swap contracts totaled R$ 327.5 million of notional amount corresponding to principal amount of related debt, and on average had an asset position at 11.8% p.a. and a liability position at 98.6% of CDI.
d – Hedging against the foreign currency exchange exposure of liabilities - The purpose of these contracts is offset the effect of exchange variation of debts or firm commitments in euro, turning them into debts or firm commitments in Reais indexed to the CDI. In 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had swap contracts totaling € 0.2 million of notional amount with an asset position at EUR + 0,00% and a liability position on average of 95.0% of CDI.
Hedge Accounting
The Company and its subsidiaries test, throughout the duration of the hedge, the effectiveness of their derivatives, as well as the changes in their fair value. The Company and its subsidiaries designate as fair value hedges certain derivative financial instruments used to offset the variations in interest and exchange rates, which are based on the market value of financing contracted in Brazilian Reais and U.S. dollars.
In 2014, the notional amount of foreign exchange hedging instruments designated as fair value hedge totaled US$ 230.0 million. In 2014, a gain of R$ 50.7 million related to the result of hedging instruments, a gain of R$ 7.1 million related to the fair value adjustment of debt, and a loss of R$ 90.6 million related to the financial expense of the debt were recognized in the income statements, transforming the average effective cost of the operation into 103.8% of CDI (see Note 14.c.1 and c.3).
In 2014, the notional amount of exchange rate hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges totaled US$ 12.0 million related to highly probable transactions and a gain of R$ 0.1 million was recognized through the income statement.
In 2014, the notional amount of exchange rate hedging instruments designated as hedges of net investment in a foreign operation totaled US$ 31 million relating to the portion of investments in entities which have functional currency different from the Real. In 2014, a loss of R$ 7.3 million was recorded. The exchange rate on investment and the hedging instrument effects were offset in equity.
In 2014, the notional amount of interest rate hedging instruments totaled R$ 327.5 million, referring to the principal of the pre-fixed loans in Brazilian Reais. As of December 31,2014, a gain of R$ 3.1 million related to the result of hedging instruments, a gain of R$ 10.2 million related to the fair value adjustment of debt, and a loss of R$ 60.8 million related to the accrued interest rate of the debt were recognized in the income statement, transforming the average effective cost of the operations into 98.6% of CDI.

Notes to the Financial Statements
(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)
The fair value of financial instruments, including currency and interest hedging instruments, was determined as follows:

• | The fair value of cash and bank deposit balances are identical to their carrying values.
• | Financial investments in investment funds are valued at the value of the fund unit as of the date of the reporting period, which corresponds to their fair value.
• | Financial investments in CDBs (Bank Certificates of Deposit) and similar investments offer daily liquidity through repurchase at the “yield curve” and, therefore, the Company believes their fair value corresponds to their carrying value.
• | The fair value calculation of LPG Inc.’s notes in the foreign market (see Note 14.b) is based on the quoted prices in an active market.
• | The subscription warrants – indemnification were measured on the share price of Ultrapar (UGPA3) at the reporting date.

The fair value of other financial investments and financing was determined using calculation methodologies commonly used for mark-to-market reporting, which consist of calculating future cash flows associated with each instrument adopted and adjusting them to present value at the market rates as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. For some cases where there is no active market for the financial instrument, the Company and its subsidiaries can use 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 realizable in the current market.
Financial instruments were classified as loans and receivables or financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, except (i) all exchange rate and interest rate hedging instruments, which are measured at fair value through profit or loss, (ii) financial investments classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss, (iii) financial investments that are classified as available for sale, which are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (see Note 4), (iv) loans and financing measured at fair value through profit or loss (see Note 14), (v) guarantees to customers that have vendor arrangements (see Note 14.l), which are measured at fair value through profit or loss, and (vi) subscription warrants – indemnification, which are measured at fair value through profit or loss. The financial investments classified as held-to-maturity are measured at amortized cost. Cash, banks, and trade receivables are classified as loans and receivables. Trade payables and other payables are classified as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost.

Fair Value Hierarchy of Financial Instruments
The financial instruments are classified in the following categories:

(a) | Level 1 - prices negotiated (without adjustment) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

(b) | Level 2 - inputs other than prices negotiated in active markets included in Level 1 and observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and
(c) | Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability which are not based on observable market variables (unobservable inputs).

1) Refers to subscription warrants issued by the Company in the Extrafarma acquisition that, if exercised, may lead to the issuance of up to 3,205,622 shares in the future, related to subscription warrants – indemnification. The subscription warrants are measured using the price of the shares issued by Ultrapar (UGPA3) on the reporting date and are adjusted to the Company’s dividend yield, since the exercise is only possible starting in 2020 onwards and are not entitled to dividends. The number of shares of subscription warrants – indemnification is also adjusted according to the changes in the amounts of provision for tax, civil, and labor risks and contingent liabilities related to the period prior to January 31, 2014. For further information of the Extrafarma acquisition, see Note 3.a).
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, as required by CVM Instruction 475/08, 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 U.S dollar futures contracts quoted on BM&FBOVESPA as of December 31, 2014. As a reference, the exchange rate for the last maturity of foreign exchange hedging instruments is R$ 3.38 in the likely scenario. Scenarios II and III were estimated with a 25% and 50% additional appreciation or depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the likely scenario, according to the risk to which the hedged item is exposed.
Based on the balances of the hedging instruments and hedged items as of December 31, 2014, the exchange rates were replaced, and the changes between the new balance in Brazilian Reais and the original balance in Brazilian Reais as of December 31, 2014 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:

For sensitivity analysis of hedging instruments for interest rates in Brazilian Reais, the Company used the futures curve of the DI x Pre contract on BM&FBOVESPA as of December 30, 2014 for each of the swap and debt (hedged item) maturities, to determine the likely scenarios. Scenarios II and III were estimated based on a 25% and 50% deterioration, respectively, of the likely scenario pre-fixed interest rate.
Based on the three scenarios of interest rates in Brazilian Reais, the Company estimated the values of its debt and hedging instruments according to the risk which is being hedged (variations in the pre-fixed interest rates in Brazilian Reais), by projecting them to future value at the contracted rates and bringing them to present value at the interest rates of the estimated scenarios. The results are shown in the table below:

23 | Provisions, Contingencies and Commitments (Consolidated)

a. | Provisions for tax, civil, and labor risks

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties in tax, civil, and labor disputes and are discussing these issues both at the administrative and judiciary levels, which, when applicable, are backed by escrow deposits. Provisions for losses are estimated and updated by managements. Managements are supported by the opinion of the legal departments of the Company and its outside legal counsel.

Some of the tax provisions above involve escrow deposits in the amount of R$ 505,650 in 2014 (R$ 456,075 in 2013).

b. | Tax Matters

Provisions
(i) On October 7, 2005, the subsidiaries Cia. Ultragaz and Bahiana Distribuidora de Gás Ltda. (“Bahiana”) filed for and obtained a preliminary injunction to recognize and offset PIS and COFINS credits on LPG purchases, against other taxes levied by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service, notably IRPJ and CSLL. The decision was confirmed by a trial court on May 16, 2008. Under the preliminary injunction, the subsidiaries made escrow deposits for these debits which amounted to R$ 388,675 in 2014 (R$ 345,513 in 2013). On July 18, 2014, a second instance unfavorable decision was published and the subsidiaries suspended the escrow deposits, and started to pay income taxes from that date. To revert the court descision, the subsidiaries presented a writ of prevention which was dismissed on December 30, 2014, and the Company appealed this decision on February 3, 2015. Appeals were also presented to the respective higher courts (STJ and STF) whose trials are pending.
(i) The subsidiary IPP has a Declaratory Action discussing the constitutionality of Law No. 9316/1996, that denied the deduction of CSLL from the IRPJ tax basis. This claim was denied on 1st and 2nd instances, and the appeal presented to the Supreme Court awaits trial. The subsidiary has provision of R$ 20,706 in 2014 (R$ 19,806 in 2013) for this discussion.
(ii) The subsidiaries Oxiteno S.A., Oxiteno Nordeste, Cia. Ultragaz, Tequimar, Tropical Transportes Ipiranga Ltda., Empresa Carioca de Produtos Químicos S.A. (“EMCA”), IPP and Extrafarma filed for a preliminary injunction seeking the deduction of ICMS from their PIS and COFINS tax bases. Oxiteno Nordeste and IPP paid the amounts into escrow deposits, and recognized a corresponding provision in the amount of R$ 92,457 in 2014 (R$ 86,306 in 2013).

Ultrapar Participações S.A. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Financial Statements
(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)
(iii) The subsidiary IPP had a provision related to ICMS, mainly with respect to several transactions that resulted in tax assessments for which the proof of payment was not evident, in the amount of R$ 19,449 in 2013. In the second quarter of 2014, the subsidiary provided rebuttal documents, which will be subject to judicial investigation, relating to this failure to pay the ICMS charge for the alleged omission of output fuel oil operations. Thus, the Company reassessed the probability of the losses as “possible”, and reversed the provision.
Contingent Liabilities
The main tax claims of subsidiary IPP and its subsidiaries that are classified as having a possible risk of loss, and that have not been recognized in the financial statements due to this assessment, are related to ICMS, and mainly, to: (a) the required proportional reversal of ICMS credits recognized on the purchase of ethanol that was later resold at lower prices as a result of PROÁLCOOL, a Federal Government program to encourage alcohol production. The Company has determined the anticipation of financial subsidy by the distributors to the mill owners and their subsequent reimbursement by the DNC (current National Oil Agency) as R$ 116,480 in 2014 (R$ 113,555 in 2013), (b) alleged undue ICMS credits for which the tax authorities understand that there was no proof of origin for R$ 36,370 in 2014 (R$ 29,565 in 2013), (c) assessments for alleged non-payment of ICMS totaling R$ 52,011 in 2014 (R$ 25,576 in 2013), (d) assessment issued in Ourinhos/SP in connection with the return of ethanol loans made with deferred tax, in the amount of R$ 45,256 in 2014 (R$ 40,848 in 2013), (e) assessments in the State of Rio de Janeiro demanding the reversal of ICMS credits on interstate sales made under Article 33 of ICMS Convention 66/88, which allowed the use of the ICMS credit but was suspended by an injunction granted by STF (the Brazilian Federal Court of Justice), totaling R$ 17,806 in 2014 (R$ 17,222 in 2013), (f) ICMS credits taken in relation to bills considered invalid, though the understanding of the STJ (the Brazilian High Court of Justice) is that it is possible to take credit, even if there is a defect in the document of the seller, as long as it is confirmed that the transaction occurred, for R$ 28,811 in 2014 (R$ 27,215 in 2013); (g) assessments arising from surplus or shortage of inventory, generated by differences in temperature or handling of the product, without the corresponding issuance of invoices, as of R$ 60,412 in 2014 (R$ 47,106 in 2013), (h) infraction relating to ICMS credits due to alleged non-compliance with legal formalities, for R$ 40,224 in 2014 (R$ 36,398 in 2013) and; (i) assessments arising from ICMS credits related to inputs of ethanol from certain States that had granted tax benefits to producers of alcohol in alleged disagreement with the law, in the amount of R$ 36,396 in 2014 (R$ 30,726 in 2013); (j) assessments that consider various possible breaches of auxiliary obligations, among them the alleged lack of issuance of invoices, the alleged failure of delivery, or delivery with errors of informative reports to the tax authorities, errors in the filling of DANFE - Auxiliary Document Electronic Invoice, among others, totaling R$ 8,173 in 2014 (R$ 11,806 in 2013); and (k) infraction notice for non-payment of ICMS related to the acquisition of basic lubricating oil, whose remittance was deferred to the time of the subsequent industrialized output relating to interstate transactions (covered by the constitutional non-incidence - article 155, X, ‘b’ of the Federal Constitution), totaling R$ 11,579 in 2014 (R$ 10,657 in 2013).
The subsidiary IPP has assessments invalidating the offset of excise tax (“IPI”) credits in connection with the purchase of raw materials used in the manufacturing of products which sales are not subject to IPI under the protection of tax immunity. The non-provisioned amount of this contingency classified as a possible risk of loss, in 2014, is R$ 140,566 (R$ 117,697 in 2013).

Contingent Assets
The Company and its subsidiaries have favorable judgments to pay contributions to PIS and COFINS without the changes introduced by Law 9718/1998 in its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of these contributions on sources of income other than gross revenue. In 2005, the STF (the Brazilian Supreme Federal Court) decided the question in favor of the taxpayers. Although this has set a favorable precedent, the effect of this decision does not automatically apply to all companies, since they must await the formal decision in their own lawsuits. Certain lawsuits of the Company’s subsidiaries are currently pending trial and, in the event all such lawsuits are decided in favor of the subsidiaries, the Company estimates that the total positive effect on income before income and social contribution taxes may reach R$ 36,555, net of attorney’s fees.

c. | Civil Claims

Provisions
iv) The Company and its subsidiaries maintained provisions for lawsuits and administrative proceedings, mainly derived from contracts entered into with customers and former services providers, as well as proceedings related to environmental issues in the amount of R$ 58,336 in 2014 (R$ 90,886 in 2013).
Contingent Liabilities
The subsidiary Cia. Ultragaz is party to an administrative proceeding before CADE (Brazilian antitrust authority) based on alleged anti-competitive practices in the State of Minas Gerais in 2001. The CADE entered a decision against Cia. Ultragaz and imposed a penalty of R$ 23,104. The imposition of such administrative decision was suspended by a court order and its merit is being judicially reviewed. Based on the above elements and on the opinion of its legal counsel, the subsidiary did not recognize a provision for this contingency.

d. | Labor Matters

Provisions
v) The Company and its subsidiaries maintained provisions of R$ 71,516 in 2014 (R$ 60,174 in 2013) for labor litigation filed by former employees and by employees of our service providers mainly contesting the non-payment of labor rights.
Contingent Liabilities
In 1990, the Petrochemical Industry Labor Union (Sindiquímica), of which the employees of Oxiteno Nordeste and EMCA, companies located in the Camaçari Petrochemical Complex, are members, filed separate lawsuits against the subsidiaries demanding the compliance with the fourth section of the collective labor agreement, which provided for a salary adjustment in lieu of the salary policies practiced. In the same year, a collective labor dispute was also filed by the Union of Employers (SINPEQ) against Sindiquímica, requiring the recognition of the loss of effectiveness of such fourth section. Individual claims were rejected. The collective bargaining agreement is currently pending trial by STF. In the second half of 2010, some companies in the Camaçari Petrochemical Complex signed an agreement with Sindiquímica and reported the fact in the collective bargaining agreement dispute. Based on the opinion of their legal advisors, who reviewed the latest STF decision in the collective bargaining agreement dispute as well as the status of the individual claims involving the subsidiaries Oxiteno Nordeste and EMCA, the management of such subsidiaries believed that it was not necessary to recognize a provision in 2014.

(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)
The Company and its subsidiaries have other pending administrative and legal proceedings of tax, civil, and labor nature, which are individually less relevant, and were estimated by their legal counsel as having possible and/or remote risks (proceedings whose chance of loss is 50% or less). A such, the related potential losses were not provided for by the Company and its subsidiaries based on these opinions. The Company and its subsidiaries are also litigating for recovery of taxes and contributions, which were not recognized in the financial statements due to their contingent nature.

e. | Contracts

Subsidiary Tequimar has agreements with CODEBA and Complexo Industrial Portuário Governador Eraldo Gueiros, in connection with its port facilities in Aratu and Suape, respectively. Such agreements establish a minimum cargo movement of products, as shown below:

Port | Minimum movement in tons per year | Maturity
Aratu | 100,000 | 2016
Aratu | 900,000 | 2022
Suape | 250,000 | 2027
Suape | 400,000 | 2029

If the annual movement is less than the minimum contractual movement, the subsidiary is liable to pay the difference between the effective movement and the minimum contractual movement, based on the port tariff rates in effect on the date established for payment. In 2014, these rates were R$ 5.79 per ton for Aratu and R$ 1.38 per ton for Suape. The subsidiary has met the minimum cargo movement required since the beginning of the contractual agreements.
Subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste has a supply agreement with Braskem S.A. which establishes a minimum quarterly consumption level of ethylene and conditions for the supply of ethylene until 2021. The minimum purchase commitment clause provides a minimum annual consumption of 205 thousand tons and a maximum of 220 thousand tons. The minimum purchase commitment and the actual demand accumulated in 2014 and 2013, expressed in tons of ethylene, are shown below. Should the minimum purchase commitment not be met, the subsidiary would be liable for a fine of 40% of the current ethylene price for the quantity not purchased. The subsidiary has met the minimum purchase required in the agreement.

|  | Minimum purchase commitment (*) |  |  | Accumulated demand (actual) |
|  | 2014 |  |  | 2013 |  |  | 2014 |  |  | 2013 |
In tons of ethylene |  |  | 205,076 |  |  |  | 195,085 |  |  |  | 205,224 |  |  |  | 200,130 |

(*) Adjusted for scheduled shutdowns in Braskem S.A. during the year.
Subsidiary Oxiteno S.A has a supply agreement with Braskem S.A., valid until 2023, which establishes and regulates the conditions for supply of ethylene to Oxiteno based on the international market for this product. The minimum purchase is 22,050 tons of ethylene semiannually. The minimum purchase commitment and the actual demand accumulated in 2014 and 2013, expressed in tons of ethylene, are shown below. Should the minimum purchase commitment not be met, the subsidiary would be liable for a fine of 30% of the current ethylene price for the quantity not purchased. The subsidiary has met the minimum purchase required in the agreement.

The maximum compensation values based on the risk analysis of maximum possible losses of certain locations are shown below:

| Maximum compensation value (*)
Oxiteno | US$ 1,104
Ipiranga | R$ 705
Ultracargo | R$ 550

(*) In millions. As of policy conditions.
The General Liability Insurance program covers the Company and its subsidiaries with a maximum aggregate coverage of US$ 400 million against losses caused to third parties as a result of accidents related to commercial and industrial operations and/or distribution and sale of products and services.
The Company maintains liability insurance policies for directors and executive officers (D&O) to indemnify the members of the Board of Directors, fiscal council and executive officers of Ultrapar and its subsidiaries (“Insured”) in the total amount of US$ 50 million, which cover any of the Insured liabilities resulting from wrongful acts, including any act or omission committed or attempted , except if the act, omission or the claim is consequence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.
In addition, group life and personal accident, health and national and international transportation and other insurance policies are also maintained.
The coverage and limit of the insurance policies maintained are based on a careful study of risks and losses conducted by independent insurance advisors. The type of insurance is considered by management to be sufficient to cover potential losses based on the nature of the business conducted by the companies.

24. | Employee Benefits and Private Pension Plan (Consolidated)

a. | ULTRAPREV- Associaçăo de Previdência Complementar

In February 2001, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the adoption of a defined contribution pension plan to be sponsored by the Company and each of its subsidiaries. Participating employees have been contributing to this plan, managed by Ultraprev - Associaçăo de Previdência Complementar (“Ultraprev”), since August 2001. Under the terms of the plan, every year 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’s reference salary, according to the rules of the plan. As participating employees retire, they may choose to receive either (i) a monthly sum ranging between 0.5% and 1.0% of their respective accumulated fund in Ultraprev or (ii) a fixed monthly amount which will exhaust their respective accumulated fund 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. In 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries contributed R$ 19,784 (R$ 17,876 in 2013) to Ultraprev, which is recognized as expense in the income statement. The total number of participating employees as of December 31, 2014 was 8,511 active participants and 141 retired participants. In addition, Ultraprev had 29 former employees receiving benefits under the rules of a previous plan whose reserves are fully constituted.

b. | Post-employment Benefits

The Company and its subsidiaries recognized a provision for post-employment benefits mainly related to seniority bonus, payment of Government Severance Indemnity Fund (“FGTS”), and health, dental care, and life insurance plan for eligible retirees.

Sensitivity analysis
The significant actuarial assumptions to determine the provision for post-employment benefits are: discount rate, wage and medical costs increases. The following sensitivity analyses on December 31, 2014 were determined based on reasonably possible changes of assumptions occurring at the reporting date of the financial statements, keeping all other assumptions constant.

Assumption | Change in assumptions |  | Increase in liability |  | Change in assumptions | Decrease in liability |
Discount rate | increase by 1.0 p.p |  | 7,494 |  | decrease by 1.0 p.p | 8,633 |
Wage growth rate | increase by 1.0 p.p |  | 2,214 |  | decrease by 1.0 p.p | 2,009 |
Medical services growth rate | increase by 1.0 p.p |  | 3,484 |  | decrease by 1.0 p.p | 2,915 |

The sensitivity analysis presented may not represent the real change in the post-employment benefits obligation, since it is unlikely that changes occur in just one assumption alone, considering that some of these assumptions may be correlated.
Risks related to post-employment benefits
Interest rate risk: a long-term interest rate is used to calculate the present value of post-employment liabilities. A reduction in this interest rate will increase the corresponding liability.
Growth wage risk: the present value of the liability is calculated using as reference the wages of the plan participants, projected with the average nominal wage growth rate. An increase in the real wages of plan participants will increase the corresponding liability.
Medical costs growth risk: the present value of the liability is calculated using as reference the medical cost by age based on actual healthcare costs, projected based on the growth rate of medical services costs. An increase in the real medical costs will increase the corresponding liability.

"We are very pleased that we closed 2014 with another quarter and year of positive results, exactly when we completed 15 years since our IPO. During this period, even passing through various economic conditions in Brazil and in the global economy, Ultrapar recorded an average annual growth of 20% in its EBITDA, 23% in net earnings and total shareholder return of 22% per year. The economic environment, which has been deteriorating over the last months, was not an easy one: economic slowdown, soaring interest rates, high inflation rates. Ultrapar’s performance is a consequence of investments made to strengthen and expand the company, our focus in efficiency and productivity, the resilient nature of our businesses and the execution capability of our teams. These fundamentals, combined with our corporate governance designed to create value, allow visibility to continue this growth trajectory in 2015." Thilo Mannhardt – CEO

Considerations on the financial and operational information
The financial information presented in this document has been prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial information of Ultrapar corresponds to the company’s consolidated information. The information of Ipiranga, Oxiteno, Ultragaz, Ultracargo and Extrafarma is reported without elimination of intercompany transactions. Therefore, the sum of such information may not correspond to the consolidated information of Ultrapar. In addition, the financial and operational information presented in this document is subject to rounding off and, consequently, the total amounts presented in the tables and charts may differ from the direct sum of the amounts that precede them.
In September 2013, Ultrapar entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma. The transaction was closed on January 31, 2014 upon the approval of the association by the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. Extrafarma’s results were consolidated in Ultrapar’s financial statements as from February 1, 2014. Consequently, Ultrapar’s financial statements for the periods prior to February 1, 2014 do not include Extrafarma’s results and its operational data included in this release refer, for 2014, exclusively to the months from February to December. Aiming to provide a comparison basis for the analysis of the evolution of Extrafarma’s performance, we present its results for 2013 including the months from February to December 2013. As a consequence of the closing of the transaction, 12,021,100 new common, nominative book-entry shares with no par value of Ultrapar were issued, which corresponded to R$ 141.9 million of capital increase and R$ 498.8 million of increase in capital reserve, totaling an increase in shareholders’ equity of R$ 640.7 million. In addition, Ultrapar issued subscription warrants that, if exercised, would lead to the issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, broken down into 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital and 3,205,622 shares related to subscription warrants – indemnification. On June 30, 2014, in an assessment of the working capital and indebtedness adjustments the company identified that the subscription warrants – working capital shall not be exercised by the former shareholders of Extrafarma. Accordingly, the company reversed full provision for the issuance of 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital, which corresponded to R$ 42.1 million at the closing date. Additionally, it was verified that Ultrapar has R$ 12.2 million in receivables due to the adjustment on working capital that was registered under “other receivables” in current assets. The shares of the subscription warrants – indemnification may be exercised as from 2020 and is adjusted according to variations of provisions for fiscal, civil and labor risks and contingent liabilities related to the period prior to January 31, 2014. The value of the association totaled R$ 719.9 million. For more information, see Note 3.a and Note 22 to our 2014 financial statements.

Executive summary of the results

Deterioration of macroeconomic environment continued in 2014, as in 2013. The scenario was formed by the combination of inflation above the target, weak economic activity, expansionary fiscal policy and rising interest rates. With the purpose of curbing the growing inflation rates verified over the year, the Brazilian Central Bank raised the basic interest rate of the economy, from 10% at the end of 2013 to 11.75% at the end of 2014. GDP growth expectations in 2014, measured by the Central Bank’s Focus report, started the year with a perspective of 2.0% and are currently pointing towards a negative progression. Despite the weak performance of the Brazilian economy, in contrast to a rebound of the U.S. economy, the Real remained relatively stable against the dollar until the third quarter, when the devaluation started. The average Real to dollar exchange rate in 4Q14 was R$ 2.55/US$ compared to R$ 2.28/US$ in 4Q13. The number of light vehicles licensed totaled 926 thousand vehicles in 4Q14, resulting in a total of 3.3 million vehicles licensed during that year, which lead to a 6% growth of the fleet in 2014. The deceleration in global economy and the production decisions of the OPEC member countries influenced the international oil price, which started the year at US$ 111/barrel (Brent) and remained stable until the third quarter, but ended 2014 at US$ 56/barrel. In Brazil, in November, Petrobras raised by 3% the refinery prices of gasoline and by 5% of diesel. In December, Petrobras raised LPG refinery prices for the bulk segment by 15%. Sales in the retail pharmacy sector, according to data from members of Abrafarma, grew 12% in 4Q14 compared to 4Q13, continuing the growth seen in recent years.
In such economic and operational environment, Ultrapar reported consolidated EBITDA of R$ 916 million in 4Q14, up 10% over 4Q13.
At Ipiranga, sales volume of fuels for light vehicles (Otto cycle) was the positive highlight in 4Q14, presenting an 8% growth as compared to 4Q13, driven by growth in the light vehicle fleet, the investments made over the last few years to expand the service station network and related logistics infrastructure, and the larger number of working days. EBITDA reached R$ 712 million, an increase of 14% compared to 4Q12, mainly due to increased sales volume in Otto cycle, with an improved sales mix, and to the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience in the service station, generating greater customer satisfaction and loyalty.
In Oxiteno, sales volume reached 194 thousand tons, up 9% over 4Q13, mainly due to the 13% growth in sales in the domestic market, a growth substantially concentrated on sales of glycols, partially offset by the lower volume of specialty chemicals, influenced by the effects of the slowdown of the Brazilian economy, and by the reduction in the operating level in Venezuela since 1Q14, due to the limitations in importing raw material in that country. EBITDA totaled R$ 98 million in 4Q14, down 9% over 4Q13, mainly due to (i) the reduction in the volume of specialty chemicals, (ii) the reduced operating level in Venezuela, (iii) the lower prices of glycols in the international market and (iv) increased project expenses, partially offset by the weaker Real.
In 4Q14, Ultragaz reported a 2% growth in sales volume compared to 4Q13, mainly as a result of the 2% growth in bottled segment, due to commercial initiatives, the market growth in North and Northeast regions and by the larger number of working days. In 4Q14, Ultragaz's EBITDA reached R$ 82 million, up 30% over 4Q13, mainly due to the increased volume, commercial initiatives and reduction of costs and expenses.
In Ultracargo, average storage presented a 2% drop compared to 4Q13, due to the lower handling of ethanol, chemicals and corrosives, mainly as a result of the economic slowdown, partially offset by the increased handling of fuel oils and automotive fuels. Ultracargo's EBITDA reached R$ 38 million in 4Q14, practically stable compared to 4Q13.
Extrafarma ended 4Q14 with 223 stores in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil, an increase of 28 stores compared to 4Q13. Extrafarma's EBITDA of 4Q14, excluding expenses with integration and structuring, totaled R$ 19 million, a 69% growth compared to 4Q13, due to the greater number of stores and the 9% increase in same store sales.
Net earnings for 4Q14 was R$ 372 million, in line with 4Q13, with the growth of EBITDA being offset by higher financial expenses, mainly as a result of annual CDI rate increase of 2 p.p., and by higher expenses and costs with amortization and depreciation, due to the investments made along last year.

Ipiranga

Operational performance – In 4Q14, sales volume of fuels for light vehicles (Otto cycle) increased by 8%, mainly driven by the growth in the vehicle fleet and investments made in Ipiranga's service station network expansion. The diesel volume through reseller segment (sales at service stations) grew 1%, as a result of the investments in network expansion. In 4Q14, a 2% reduction in the total volume of diesel occurred due to the weak performance of the economy and the non-renewal of a relevant agreement in the segment of large customers. Consequently, Ipiranga's sales volume totaled 6,715 thousand cubic meters in 4Q14, 2% above the volume sold in 4Q13, also influenced by the larger number of working days. Compared to 3Q14, sales volume increased by 3%, mainly due to seasonality between periods. In 2014, Ipiranga amounted a sales volume of 25,614 thousand cubic meters, up 3.5% over 2013.
Ipiranga – Sales volume (000 m³)

Net sales and services – Ipiranga's net sales and services reached R$ 15,489 million in 4Q14, up 8% over 4Q13, mainly as a result of (i) increased sales volume, (ii) the rise in diesel and gasoline costs by Petrobras in November 2013 and 2014, and, consequently, increased ethanol costs, (iii) improved sales mix, resulting from investments in the expansion of the service station network, which enabled an increased share of Otto cycle and of diesel sold through the reseller segment and (iv) the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience in the service station, generating greater customer satisfaction and loyalty. Compared to 3Q14, net sales and services increased by 4%, mainly due to the seasonality between periods as well as increases in costs of diesel and gasoline promoted by Petrobras. In 2014, net sales and services totaled R$ 58,830 million, up 10% over 2013.
Cost of goods sold – Ipiranga's cost of goods sold totaled R$ 14,519 million in 4Q14, up 8% compared to 4Q13, mainly due to (i) increased sales volume and (ii) the rise in diesel and gasoline costs by Petrobras in November 2013 and 2014 and, consequently, increased ethanol costs. Compared to 3Q14, cost of goods sold increased by 3%, mainly due to seasonally higher volume and rise in costs by Petrobras, offset by the temporary effect of inventory gain. In 2014, cost of goods sold totaled R$ 55,339 million, 10% above the amount reported in 2013.
General, administrative and sales expenses – Ipiranga's general, administrative and sales expenses totaled R$ 465 million in 4Q14, a 4% increase over 4Q13, mainly resulting from increased sales volume, the expansion of the distribution network and the effects of inflation on expenses, partially offset by the extinction of contingencies from Texaco’s acquisition in 2009 , in the amount of R$ 19 million. Compared to 3Q14, sales, administrative and general expenses remained almost stable. In 2014, sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 1,871 million, up 6% over 2013.
EBITDA – Ipiranga reported an EBITDA of R$ 712 million in 4Q14, up 14% over 4Q13. Such growth is mainly due to (i) increased sales volume in Otto cycle and diesel sold through the reseller segment, with an improved sales mix, (ii) the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience at stations, generating greater customer satisfaction and loyalty. The R$ 19 million from the extinction of contingencies and the R$ 22 million from the temporary effect of inventory gain in 4Q14 was practically offset by the temporary effect of inventory gain of R$ 34 million reported in 4Q13. Compared to 3Q14, EBITDA was 28% higher as a result of the seasonally higher sales volume, improved sales mix, with a greater share of gasoline, the inventory gain and the concentration of merchandising revenues and sale of assets in 4Q14. In 2014, EBITDA totaled R$ 2,288 million, up 13% over 2013.

Oxiteno

Operational performance – Total volume sold in the domestic market increased 13% (15 thousand tons) compared to 4Q13 due to increased sales of glycols, which were reduced in 4Q13 due to the scheduled stoppage in the Camaçari petrochemical complex in October 2013. The volume of specialty chemicals sold in the domestic market in 4Q14 was 3% (4 thousand tons) below that in 4Q13 as a result of the different economic conditions in the periods compared (GDP growth in 4Q13 and slowdown in 4Q14). In the international market, sales volume remained stable, with an increase mainly in exports from Brazil, offset by the reduction in the operating level in Venezuela since 1Q14, due to limitations in importing raw material in that country. With all these effects, Oxiteno's sales volume in 4Q14 totaled 194 thousand tons, an increase of 9% (15 thousand tons) compared to 4Q13. Compared to 3Q14, the sales volume decreased by 5% (11 thousand tons), with a 5% decrease in sales volume of specialty chemicals (9 thousand tons), mainly due to the typical seasonality between quarters.

Net sales and services – Oxiteno's net sales and services totaled R$ 888 million in 4Q13, up 6% over 4Q13, as a result of a 9% growth in sales volume and the 12% weaker Real, partially offset by the increased share of glycols in sales mix and the lower prices of glycols in the international market. Compared to 3Q14, net sales and services increased by 2%, due to the 12% weaker Real, partially offset by lower sales volume. In 2014, accumulated net sales and services totaled R$ 3,414 million, up 4% over 2013.
Cost of goods sold – Oxiteno's cost of goods sold in 4Q14 totaled R$ 674 million, up 7% over 4Q13, due to the 9% growth in sales volume and the 12% weaker Real, partially offset by the decrease in the cost of Oxiteno's raw materials, particularly ethylene and palm-kernel oil. Compared to 3Q14, the cost of goods sold remained practically stable, with the effect of a 12% weaker Real offset by lower sales volume and reduction in the costs of raw materials.

Outlook

Although the economic environment remains challenging, we reaffirm our expectation of growth for 2015 and in the long run, based on the characteristics of our businesses and on the consistent planning and execution of our strategy. At Ipiranga, strong and consistent investments to expand its service stations network and its related logistics infrastructure, focused on North, Northeast and Midwest regions of Brazil, will continue to leverage the benefits from the growth of the vehicle fleet in Brazil and the reduction of gray market. Additionally, the company will continue with its differentiation initiatives, based on increasing the offer of products, services and convenience, to further increase customer loyalty and expand the number of clients, that will benefit from higher value-added products and services, while the reseller gets an additional source of revenue and a differentiated positioning, maximizing the profitability of the chain as a whole, including Ipiranga. Oxiteno will continue with focus on innovation, with the development of new products, and will continue to maximize the benefits from the maturation of investments in production capacity expansion in Brazil. Ultragaz will continue focused on obtaining the benefits from the investments in capturing new customers and on constantly managing costs and expenses. Ultracargo, on its turn, will remain focused on capturing the benefits generated by the expansion of existing terminals and will keep attentive to opportunities from the growing demand for liquid bulk storage in Brazil. At Extrafarma, we will continue focused on the more accelerated expansion of the company, which starts being implemented in 2015.
