10.1 Management discussion & analysis:
Introduction
You should read this discussion together with our consolidated financial statements, filed with the CVM on February 25, 2015, including the Notes thereto, and other financial information included elsewhere in this document.

| a. | General financial and equity conditions

Company overview
Ultrapar is a multi-business Company with more than 75 years of history, with distinguished position in the markets in which it operates. Our five principal segments are:
· the LPG distribution business, conducted by Ultragaz;
· the fuels distribution business, conducted by Ipiranga;
· the chemical and petrochemical business, conducted by Oxiteno;
· storage for liquid bulk, conducted by Ultracargo; and
· retail pharmacy, conducted by Extrafarma (since February 2014).
Ultragaz distributes LPG to residential, commercial and industrial market segments. Ipiranga distributes gasoline, ethanol, diesel, NGV (natural gas for vehicles), fuel oil, kerosene and lubricants through a network of 7.1 thousand service stations and directly to large customers. Oxiteno produces ethylene oxide and its principal derivatives, and is also a major producer of specialty chemicals, particularly surfactants. It produces approximately 1.3 thousand products used in various industrial sectors such as cosmetics, detergents, agrochemicals, packaging, textiles, paints and varnishes. Ultracargo is the largest provider of storage for liquid bulk in Brazil. Extrafarma operates in distribution and retail pharmacy sector, with 223 stores at the end of 2014, and is one of the leaders in its region.
The transaction with Extrafarma was closed on January 31, 2014 with 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.
2014
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
19

end of 2014. GDP growth expectations in 2014, measured by the Central Bank’s Focus report, started 2014 with a perspective of 2.0% and 2015 are recently 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$ at 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. In 2014, Ultrapar’s net sales and services amounted to R$ 67.7 billion, EBITDA amounted to R$ 3,157.9 million and net earnings amounted to R$ 1,251.2 million. Net debt to EBITDA ratio in the end of 2014 was 1.3, stable compared to the ratio at the end of 2013. Ultrapar ended 2014 with total assets of R$ 19.5 billion and shareholders’ equity of R$ 7.7 billion.
2013
The year of 2013 was marked by the continuity of a more challenging macroeconomic environment, with highlight to the maintenance of high inflation rates. In order to curb the rising inflation rates, the Brazilian government raised the economy’s base interest rate, from 7.25% at the end 2012 to 10.0% at the end of 2013. Despite that, GDP growth during 2013 was 2.3%, which, although modest, was above the growth recorded in 2012. Credit availability in the economy continued to grow, reaching a record level of 57% of the GDP in the fourth quarter of the year. The macroeconomic environment contributed for a strong appreciation of the dollar against the Real in 2013, with an average exchange rate of R$ 2.16/US$ in 2013, 10% higher than the exchange rate of R$ 1.95/US$ verified in 2012. Ultrapar achieved once more record levels of results in 2013, mainly due to the larger scale of operations, derived from investments and acquisitions made in previous years, associated to a sound financial position and result- and value creation-oriented culture. In 2013, Ultrapar’s net sales and services amounted to R$ 60.9 billion, EBITDA amounted to R$ 2,918.0 million and net earnings amounted to R$ 1,228.7 million. Net debt to EBITDA ratio in the end of 2013 was 1.2 – lower than the 1.3 ratio of the end of 2012 – reflecting the strong cash generation in the year. Ultrapar ended 2013 with total assets of R$ 16.4 billion and shareholders’ equity of R$ 6.5 billion.
2012
In 2012, the Brazilian economy presented a modest growth level. In order to foster the economic activity, the Brazilian government adopted counter-cyclical measures during the year, with an emphasis on the lowering of the base interest rate, which was reduced from 11.0% at the end of 2011 to 7.25% at the end of 2012, and on the reduction of federal taxes on the automotive sector. Despite the government measures, GDP growth during 2012 was 0.9%, below the 2.7% growth recorded in 2011. Even facing a more challenging macroeconomic environment, Ultrapar achieved record levels of results as of 2012, mainly due to the larger scale of operations, derived from investments and acquisitions made in the previous years, associated to a sound financial position and result- and value creation-oriented culture. In 2012, Ultrapar’s net sales and services amounted to R$ 53.9 billion, EBITDA amounted to R$ 2,411.4 million and net earnings amounted to R$ 1,026.8 million. Net debt to EBITDA ratio in the end of 2012 was 1.3 – lower than the 1.4 ratio of the end of 2011 – reflecting the strong cash generation in the year. Ultrapar ended 2012 with total assets of R$ 15.2 billion and shareholders’ equity of R$ 6.0 billion.
See “Item 10.2.c. Effect of inflation, changes in prices of main feedstocks and products, foreign exchange and interest rates on operating and financial results” for trend information.

| b. | Capital structure and possibility of redemption of shares

Capital structure
20

Ultrapar’s capital as of December 31, 2014 amounted to R$ 3,838.7 million, composed by 556,405,096 common shares, without par value.
2014
Ultrapar ended the fiscal year 2014 with a gross debt of R$ 8,375.2 million and cash of R$ 4,400.1 million, resulting in a net debt of R$ 3,975.1 million, an increase of R$ 549.2 over 2013, in line with the Company's growth. On December 31, 2014, shareholders’ equity amounted to R$ 7,726.6 million, resulting in a net debt to shareholders’ equity ratio of 51%.
In September 2013, Ultrapar entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma. The transaction was closed on January 31, 2014 upon the approval of the merger of shares (incorporação de ações) by the Extraordinary General Shareholders 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. 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. Additionally, 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, after 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 22 to our 2014 financial statements.
2013
Ultrapar ended the fiscal year 2013 with a gross debt of R$ 6,969.6 million and cash of R$ 3,543.7 million, resulting in a net debt of R$ 3,425.9 million, an increase of 11% over 2012, mainly due to investments in expansion and dividends distributed in 2013. On December 31, 2013, shareholders’ equity amounted to R$ 6,546.9 million, resulting in a net debt to shareholders’ equity ratio of 52%.
2012
Ultrapar ended the fiscal year 2012 with a gross debt of R$ 6,215.9 million and cash of R$ 3,131.8 million, resulting in a net debt of R$ 3,084.0 million, an increase of 7% over 2011, mainly due to investments in expansion, acquisitions and dividends distributed in 2012. On December 31, 2012, shareholders’ equity amounted to R$ 6,006.1 million, resulting in a net debt to shareholders’ equity ratio of 51%.

Our principal sources of liquidity derive from (i) cash, cash equivalents and financial investments, (ii) cash generated from operations and (iii) financings. We believe that these sources are sufficient to satisfy our current funding requirements, which include, but are not limited to, working capital, capital expenditures, amortization of debt and payment of dividends.
Periodically, we assess the opportunities for acquisitions and investments. We consider different types of investments, either directly or through joint ventures, or associated companies, and we finance such investments using cash generated from our operations, debt financing, through capital increases or through a combination of these methods.
We believe we have sufficient working capital to satisfy our current needs. In addition to the cash flow generated from our operations during the year, as of December 31, 2014, we had R$ 4,269.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. The gross indebtedness due between January and December 2015 totals R$ 3,971.1 million, including estimated interests on loans. Furthermore, the investment plan for 2015 totals R$ 1,418.4 million.
We anticipate that we will spend approximately R$ 13.7 billion in the next five years to meet long-term contractual obligations, including the amortization and payment of interests, as well as the 2015 budgeted capital expenditures.

¹ Does not include currency and interest rate hedging instruments.
² Includes estimated interest payments on short-term and long-term loans. Information of our derivative instruments is not included. The fair value information of such derivatives is available in Note 22, filed with the CVM on February 25, 2015. To calculate the estimated interest on loans certain macroeconomic assumptions were used, including, on average for the period, (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 (General Market Price Index) of 5.7% p.a. in 2015, 6.0% p.a. in 2016 and 5.3% p.a. from 2017 to 2019. (source: BM&FBOVESPA, Boletim Focus and financial institutions)
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 (BBA - British Bankers Association)
on December 31, 2014. In the table above, only the hedging instruments that are expected to be disbursed at the time of settlement were considered.
See “Item 10.1.f. Indebtedness level and debt profile”, “Item 10.8.b. Other off-balance sheet arrangements” and “Item 10.10.a.i. Quantitative and qualitative description of the investments in progress and the estimated investments” for further information.
We expect to meet these cash requirements through a combination of cash generated from operating activities and cash generated by financing activities, including new debt financing and the refinancing of some of our indebtedness.
d. Sources for financing working capital and investments in non-current assets
We generated cash flow from operations of R$ 2,650.7 million, R$ 2,120.7 million and R$ 2,443.7 million for 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. In 2014, our operating cash flow was R$ 530.0 million higher compared to 2013, mainly due to the growth of our operations and lower investment in working capital, which went from an increase of R$ 185.8 million to a reduction of R$ 99.0 million of working capital in 2014. In 2013, our cash flow from operations was R$ 323.0 million lower than that in 2012, mainly due to higher investment in working capital, increased inventories and lower trade payables, due to a reduction in average payment to suppliers.
Cash flow of investing activities used an amount of R$ 1,540.2 million, R$ 1,287.9 million and R$ 1,565.0 million in 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. In 2014, Ultrapar continued its strategy of value creation and investments to increase operating scale and productivity gains in its businesses. In 2014, 2013 and 2012, we invested R$ 1,215.7 million, R$ 1,101.5 million and R$ 1,282.7 million in additions to fixed assets, equipment and intangible assets, net of disposals. In addition, capital investments were made in ConectCar of R$ 28.5 million, R$ 24.9 million and R$ 4.1 million in 2014, 2013 and 2012 respectively. In 2012, Ultrapar, through its subsidiary Oxiteno S.A., acquired 100% of the shares of American Chemical for R$ 107.4 million, in addition to the assumption of R$ 32.7 million in net debt. Also in 2012, Ultrapar, through its subsidiary Tequimar, acquired 100% of the shares of Temmar, in the port of Itaqui (MA), for R$ 68.2 million, including the assumption of R$ 91.2 million in net debt. Tequimar will disburse a minimum extra value of R$ 12 million, which may reach approximately R$ 30 million as a result of possible future expansions in the storage capacity of the terminal, provided that such expansions are implemented within the seven year period after the acquisition, an amount that will be restated by the General Index of Market Prices (“IGP-M”).
Cash flows used by financing activities totaled R$ 539.3 million, R$ 578.9 million and R$ 622.7 million for 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. In 2014, cash used by financing activities decreased R$ 39.5 million compared to 2013, mainly as a result of an increase of R$ 369.5 million in new loans and debentures, which was partially offset by a greater use of resources of R$ 327.0 million for amortization of financing and debentures, interest and dividend payments. In 2013, the cash used by financing activities decreased R$ 43.8 million, primarily as a result of an increase of R$ 1,307.8 billion in new loans and debentures, which was partially offset by a greater use of resources in R$ 1,297.6 million for amortization of financing and debentures, interest and dividend payments. In 2012, cash flows from financing activities decreased by R$ 471.1 million, mainly as a result of the issuance of debentures, in March and November 2012, in order to strengthen the Company’s cash and extend its debt profile, partially offset by increased amortization of
23

financing and debentures in 2012. Accordingly, cash and cash equivalents totaled R$ 2,827.4 million in 2014, R$ 2,276.1 million in 2013 and R$ 2,021.1 million in 2012.
e. Sources for financing working capital and investments in non-current assets to be used to in case of deficiencies in liquidity
In 2014, 2013 and 2012, we did not present deficiencies in liquidity. We believe that Ultrapar has own resources and operational cash generation sufficient to finance its needs for working capital and investments estimated for 2015.
f. Indebtedness level and debt profile
Our total indebtness, considering all current liabilities and non-current liabilities, grew by 20%, from R$ 9,831.7 million as of December 31, 2013 to R$ 11,753.8 million as of December 31, 2014.
Our gross financial debt increased by 20% during the year ended on December 31, 2014, from R$ 6,969.6 million as of December 31, 2013 to R$ 8,375.2 million as of December 31, 2014. Our short term financial debt as of December 31, 2014 was equivalent to 41% of our gross debt and for the year ended on December 31, 2013 was 26%.

| i. | Relevant loan and financing contracts

Notes in the foreign market
In December 2005, the subsidiary LPG International issued US$ 250 million in notes in the foreign market, maturing in December 2015, with interest rate of 7.3% p.a., paid semiannually. The notes were guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiary Oxiteno S.A.
Foreign loans
The subsidiary IPP has a foreign loan in the amount of US$ 80 million, due in November 2015 and bearing interest of LIBOR + 0.8% p.a., paid quarterly. IPP also contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rate in U.S. dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 104.1% of CDI (see Note 22). IPP designated these hedging instruments as a fair value hedge; therefore, loan and hedging instruments are both measured at fair value from inception, with changes in fair value recognized through profit or loss. The foreign loan is secured by the Company.
The subsidiary Oxiteno Overseas has a foreign loan in the amount of US$ 60 million with interest of LIBOR + 1.0% p.a., paid semiannually. The Company, through its subsidiary Cia. Ultragaz, contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rates in dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 86.9% of CDI with maturity in June 2014 and 94.0% of CDI for the remaining term (see Note 22). The foreign loan is guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiary Oxiteno S.A. In January 2014, the subsidiary renegotiated the loan changing the maturity from June 2014 to January 2017.

IPP also contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rate in U.S. dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 103.7% of CDI (see Note 22). IPP designated these hedging instruments as a fair value hedge; therefore, loan and hedging instruments are both measured at fair value from inception, with changes in fair value recognized through profit or loss. The foreign loan is secured by the Company.
Loans with Banco do Brasil
The subsidiary IPP has fixed and floating interest rate loans with Banco do Brasil to finance the marketing, processing, or manufacturing of agricultural goods (ethanol). IPP contracted interest hedging instruments, thus converting the fixed rate for this loan into 99.5% of CDI (see Note 22). IPP designates this hedging instrument as a fair value hedge; therefore, loan and hedging instrument are both stated at fair value from inception. Changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss.
In January 2014, the subsidiary IPP renegotiated loans, that would mature in 2014, in the notional amount of R$ 909.5 million, changing the maturities from April and May 2014 to January 2017, with floating interest rate of 105.5% of CDI.

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 (%)

Net earnings | 1,251 | 1,229 | 2%

(+) Financial expenses (income), net | 445 | 338 |
(+) Depreciation and amortization | 888 | 779 |
EBITDA | 3,158 | 2,918 | 8%

The EBITDA 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.
Overview on sales volume

|  | 2014 |  |  | 2013 |  |  | Percent change 2014-2013 |
Ipiranga (000 m3) |  |  | 25,614 |  |  |  | 24,758 |  |  |  | 3 | %
Oxiteno (000 tons) |  |  | 780 |  |  |  | 776 |  |  |  | 0 | %
Ultragaz (000 tons) |  |  | 1,711 |  |  |  | 1,696 |  |  |  | 1 | %

Extrafarma (number of stores) |  |  | 223 |  |  |  | 195 |  |  |  | 14 | %

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
35

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.

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. Ultragaz's net sales and services totaled R$ 4,091 million in 2014, 3% higher than that in 2013, mainly as a result of the growth in the sales volume in bottled segment and commercial initiatives. Ultracargo's net sales and services totaled R$ 346 million, up 4% over 2013, mainly derived from the increased average storage. Extrafarma's net sales and services grew by 15% due to the higher average number of stores and the 8% increase in same store sales (sales in stores with more than 12 months).

The cost of goods sold by Ipiranga was 10% higher than in 2013, mainly due to increased sales volume and the rise in diesel and gasoline costs by Petrobras and, consequently, increased ethanol costs. Oxiteno's cost of products sold presented a 6% increase over 2013, mainly due to the 9% weaker Real, partially offset by a 4% reduction in unit variable costs in dollar. The cost of products sold by Ultragaz was 2% higher compared to 2013, due to (i) increased sales volume, (ii) the effects of inflation on costs and (iii) the requalification of an increased number of LPG bottles, partially offset by initiatives implemented for cost reduction over the year. The cost of the services provided by Ultracargo increased by 6% compared to 2013, due to the increased average storage and the effects of inflation on costs, mainly personnel expenses. The cost of products sold by Extrafarma increased by 13% over 2013, due to increased sales and the annual
36

adjustment in the prices of medicines, set by the Chamber for the Regulation of the Medical Pharmaceuticals Market (CMED).
Gross profit
Ultrapar reported gross profit of R$ 5,432 million in 2014, a growth of 14% compared to 2013, due to the increase in gross profits in all businesses units, except in Oxiteno.

Oxiteno's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 7% compared to 2013 due to (i) increased logistics expenses, mainly as a result of increases in diesel prices and the depreciation of the Real, (ii) the effects of inflation on expenses, partially offset by lower variable compensation in line with the earnings progression. Ultragaz's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 3% compared to 2013 mainly due to (i) the effects of inflation on personnel and freight expenses and (ii) the increase in variable compensation, in line with the earnings progression, effects partially offset by initiatives for expense reduction. Ultracargo's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses remained stable, with the effects of inflation on expenses offset by lower expenses with projects. Extrafarma's sales, general, administrative and commercial expenses increased by 40% mainly due to (i) the 14% increase in the average number of drugstores, (ii) above-inflation increases on unit expenses with personnel and (iii) expenses with the integration with Ultrapar and the structuring of Extrafarma for a more accelerated growth in the amount of R$ 39 million.

Overview on sales volume

| 2013 | 2012 | Percent change 2013-2012
Ipiranga (000 m3) | 24,758 | 23,364 | 6%
Oxiteno (000 tons) | 776 | 761 | 2%
Ultracargo (000 m3) | 696 | 614 | 13%
Ultragaz (000 tons) | 1,696 | 1,681 | 1%

Ipiranga’s sales volume in 2013 grew by 6% over 2012, totaling 24,758 thousand cubic meters. Sales volume of gasoline, ethanol and natural gas for vehicles increased by 9% in relation to 2012, as a result of an estimated 7% growth of the light vehicles fleet and strong investments in new service stations and in the conversion of
39

unbranded service stations. Diesel volumes, in turn, grew by 4% as a result of the 7% growth in the volume sold in the reseller segment, derived from investments made in expanding the service station network and, to a lesser extent, the growth of the economy. At Oxiteno, sales volume of specialty chemicals reached 687 thousand tons in 2013, up 8% compared with the previous year, mainly due to (i) investments to expand production capacity over the last years (ii) the growth of the segments served by Oxiteno in Brazil, in particular cosmetics, detergents, agrochemicals and coatings, and (iii) the acquisition of the specialty chemicals plant in Uruguay. Oxiteno’s total volume sold increased by 2% in 2013, with the strong growth of specialties partly offset by lower sales of glycols in the second half of 2013, leading to a richer sales mix. Ultracargo’s average storage grew by 13% compared with 2012, driven by the acquisition of a terminal in the port of Itaqui, in August 2012, and by the increased product handling at the Suape, Aratu and Santos terminals, which was enabled by the investments carried out over the last years. Ultragaz’s sales volume reached 1,696 thousand tons in 2013, up 1% over 2012, due to the 3% growth in the bulk segment, as a consequence of investments made to capture new customers, especially in the residential segment and in small- and medium-sized companies.
Net revenue from sales and services

(R$ million) | 2013 | 2012 | Percent change 2013-2012
Ipiranga | 53,384.1 | 46,829.4 | 14%
Oxiteno | 3,277.8 | 2,928.8 | 12%
Ultracargo | 332.1 | 293.6 | 13%
Ultragaz | 3,982.3 | 3,847.1 | 4%

Ultrapar’s net revenue from sales and services amounted to R$ 60,940 million in 2013, a 13% growth over 2012. In the same comparison, Ipiranga’s net revenue increased by 14%, mainly due to (i) increased sales volume, (ii) the rise in diesel, gasoline and ethanol costs, and (iii) improved sales mix, resulting from investments in the service station network expansion, which enabled a higher share of fuels for light vehicles and diesel sold through the reseller segment (sales in service stations). Oxiteno reported a 12% growth in net revenue, as a result of the 10% weaker Real and the 2% growth of sales volume. Ultracargo’s net revenue totaled R$ 332.1 million, up 13% over 2012, mainly due to the increased average storage. Ultragaz’s net revenue amounted to R$ 3,982.3 million in 2013, up 4% over 2012, mainly as a result of increased sales volume in the bulk segment.
Cost of products and services sold

(R$ million) | 2013 | 2012 | Percent change 2013-2012
Ipiranga | 50,190.2 | 44,055.2 | 14%
Oxiteno | 2,479.5 | 2,312.4 | 7%
Ultracargo | 133.8 | 117.4 | 14%
Ultragaz | 3,398.2 | 3,313.3 | 3%

Ultrapar’s cost of products and services sold amounted to R$ 56,165 million in 2013, growth of 13% over 2012. Ipiranga’s cost of products sold increased by 14% over 2012, mainly due to the growth in sales volume and the cost increases by Petrobras (i) in diesel, in January, March and November 2013, and (ii) in gasoline, in January 2013. Oxiteno’s cost of products sold presented a 7% increase over 2012 mainly due to the effect of the 10% weaker Real on variable costs and the 2% growth in sales volume, effects partially offset by a 5% reduction in unit variable costs in dollars. Ultracargo’s cost of services presented a 14% increase over 2012 as
40

a result of increased average storage and increased depreciation, as a consequence of the capacity expansions and the acquisition of the terminal in Itaqui in August 2012. Ultragaz’s cost of products sold increased by 3% over 2012, as a result of increased sales volume, the effects of inflation on costs, and increased requalification of LPG bottles, partially offset by cost reduction initiatives implemented over the year.
Gross profit
Ultrapar reported gross profit of R$ 4,774.9 million in 2013, a 16% growth over 2012, as a consequence of the growth in the gross profit of all businesses.
Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses

(R$ million) | 2013 | 2012 | Percent change 2013-2012
Ipiranga | 1,759.5 | 1,613.3 | 9%

Ultracargo | 94.5 | 74.6 | 27%
Ultragaz | 432.4 | 409.6 | 6%

Ultrapar’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses amounted to R$ 2,768.7 million in 2013, up 12% over 2012. Ipiranga's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses presented a 9% increase over 2012, mainly resulting from (i) increased sales volume and increased unit expenses with freight, derived from the rise in diesel costs and inflation (ii) the expansion of the distribution network, and (iii) the effects of inflation on personnel expenses. Oxiteno’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses grew by 26% over 2012, due to (i) increased logistics expenses, resulting from the rise in diesel costs and the effect of the weaker Real, (ii) the startup of the Company’s operations in Uruguay and in the United States, (iii) an increase in variable compensation, in line with earnings progression, and (iv) the effects of inflation on expenses. Ultracargo’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses were up 27% compared to 2012, mainly as a result of the acquisition of the terminal in Itaqui, increased expenses with projects and the effects of inflation on expenses. Ultragaz’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses grew by 6% over 2012, mainly due to the effects of inflation on personnel expenses and freight, partially offset by expense reduction initiatives implemented over the year.
Depreciation and amortization
Total depreciation and amortization costs and expenses in 2013 amounted to R$ 778.9 million, up R$ 85.9 million or 12% over 2012, due to increased investments and the acquisitions in the port of Itaqui, by Ultracargo, and in Uruguay, by Oxiteno.
Income from disposal of assets
Ultrapar reported in 2013 an income from disposal of assets in the total amount of R$ 40.3 million, R$ 36.6 million above that of 2012, mainly due to sale of part of a logistics facility of Ipiranga.
Operating profit
Ultrapar presented operating profit of R$ 2,144.0 million in 2013, up 26% up over 2012, as a result of the growth of operating profit of all businesses.

41

Financial result
Ultrapar reported net financial expenses of R$ 337.6 million in 2013, R$ 67.3 million above that of 2012, mainly due to the increased average net debt and effects of the exchange rate over the year.
Net income
Ultrapar’s consolidated net income in 2013 reached R$ 1,228.7 million, 20% higher than that of 2012, mainly as a result of the growth in EBITDA between the periods.

10.2 - Comments on:
a. Company’s operating results, especially:

| i. | Description of major components of revenues

More than 90% of consolidated net revenues of Ultrapar is generated by the fuel and LPG distribution businesses. Therefore, the main components of these revenues come from diesel, gasoline and ethanol sales by Ipiranga and from LPG sales by Ultragaz. See “Item 10.2.c. effect of inflation, changes in prices of main inputs and products, foreign exchange and interest rates on the Company’s operating results and financial results”.

c. Effect of inflation, changes in prices of main inputs and products, foreign exchange and interest rates on the Company’s operating results and financial results
LPG business
Between 2003 and the end of 2007, LPG prices charged to LPG distributors in Brazil have been stable, despite increases in oil and LPG prices in the international markets, which were partially offset by the appreciation of the Real compared to the U.S. dollar, reducing the difference between LPG prices in Brazil and in the international markets. However, in 2008 Petrobras increased LPG refinery price for commercial and industrial usage by 15% in January, an additional 10% in April and 6% in July. Petrobras increased the LPG refinery price for commercial and industrial usage by 6% and 15% in January, 2010 and December, 2014, respectively. The LPG refinery price for residential use remained unchanged since 2003. In the last few years, Petrobras’ practice was not to immediately reflect volatility of international prices of oil and its derivatives in the Brazilian market. We cannot guarantee that this trend will continue. Any sharp increase in LPG prices charged to LPG distributors could have an impact on Ultragaz’s results if it is unable to maintain its operational margins or sales volume.
LPG bulk sales are correlated to economic growth. Thus, an acceleration or deceleration in Brazilian GDP growth can affect our sales volume. This segment represented approximately 30% of the volume sold by Ultragaz. Bottled LPG is an essential good and, therefore, it has a lower correlation with economic performance.
Chemical and petrochemical business
The specialty chemicals volume in the Brazilian market is correlated to economic growth. Therefore, an acceleration or deceleration in the Brazilian GDP growth can affect our sales volume, as Oxiteno’s specialty chemicals sales in Brazil represented 58% of its total sales in 2014. By the end of 2008, Oxiteno completed certain capacity expansions that, together with the conclusion of the expansion of 70 thousand tons per year of the ethoxylation unit in Camaçari in 2010 and the conclusion in 2011 of the 90 thousand tons per year expansion of the ethylene oxide unit, also in Camaçari, allowed an increase in sales volumes, and resulted in an increase in exports sales and hence in the portion of its volume sold in outside Brazil. As the Brazilian market grows, Oxiteno aims at (i) increasing the volume sold in the domestic market once the logistics costs are usually lower than logistics cost of sales outside Brazil, and (ii) increasing the volume of specialties sold, products of higher value added than commodities. In 2014, sales of specialty chemicals represented 86% of the total volume sold by Oxiteno, lower than the 89% share verified in 2013, mainly due to the effect of weaker economic activity in Brazil in 2014, combined with lower sales level of commodities in 2013, due to a significant scheduled maintenance stoppage at the petrochemical complex of Camaçari in the second half of 2013.
43

In 2012, Oxiteno expanded its activities to the United States, through the acquisition of a specialty chemicals plant in Pasadena, Texas, with production capacity of 32,000 tons per year, and to Uruguay, through the acquisition of American Chemical, a specialty chemicals Company, with production capacity of 81,000 tons per year. In 2013, Oxiteno invested in the expansion of its production capacity in Coatzacoalcos, in Mexico. In 2014, Oxiteno invested mainly in the continuity of the expansion of its production capacity, in Coatzacoalcos.
Almost all of Oxiteno’s products prices and variable costs are linked to U.S. dollar. Therefore, a sharp appreciation or depreciation could have an impact on Oxiteno’s contribution margin in the future. In 2012, the unstable international environment contributed to the 9% depreciation of the Real against the U.S. dollar. In 2013, Real depreciated 15% against the U.S. dollar. Considering the exchange rate in 2014, the Real depreciated 13% against the U.S. dollar. From December 31, 2014 to February 27, 2015, the Brazilian Real depreciated 8%. We cannot predict what will be the trend for the exchange rate in the future.
Oxiteno’s main raw material is the ethylene, which is produced from naphtha in Brazil. Generally, naphtha prices in Brazil fluctuate with oil prices. In 2012, the oil price ended the year quoted at US$ 110 per barrel, up 2% over 2011. In 2014, the slowdown in the global economy and the decisions of the OPEC member countries on oil production 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. From December 31, 2014 to January 27, 2015, oil prices increased by 11%. We cannot predict whether oil and ethylene prices will keep this trend. A sharp variation in ethylene prices could have an impact on Oxiteno’s results of operations if it is unable to maintain its operational margins.
The increase in demand for chemical and petrochemical products in Brazil during the last years and the ongoing integration of regional and world markets have contributed to the increasing integration of the Brazilian petrochemical industry into the international petrochemical marketplace. As a consequence, events affecting the petrochemical industry worldwide could have a material effect on our business and results of operations. The chemical industry performance worldwide was strongly affected by the world financial crisis in 2009, which caused the demand for chemical products to decrease in several countries. Due to the growth of the Brazilian chemicals market, Oxiteno faces tougher competition from certain foreign producers since 2009, including ethylene oxide and derivatives producers with access to natural-gas-based raw materials.
Fuel distribution business
In the recent past, the combined sales of gasoline, ethanol and natural gas in Brazil have been correlated to the growth of the light vehicle fleet. According to ANFAVEA, in 2014, the light vehicle fleet continued to grow, with about 3.3 million new vehicles licensed in Brazil and estimated growth of 5,5% of the fleet compared to 2013, reaching about 39 million light vehicles. Additionally, we believe the current ratio of inhabitants per vehicle in Brazil is still low when compared to the rate seen in countries with similar level of development. According to 2012 data released by ANFAVEA (the last available data), the penetration of light vehicles in Brazil is about 19% of total inhabitants, while in Argentina and in Mexico is 28%. Diesel sales, which in 2014 accounted for 52% of the volume sold by Ipiranga, have historically been correlated with Brazilian economic performance, particularly the agricultural and consumer goods segments. In 2014, the Brazilian diesel market, according to ANP data, presented growth of 3% when compared to 2013, influenced by the higher diesel consumption for electricity generation, market in which Ipiranga does not participate. The increase in fuels consumption could have a positive effect on the future volume sold by the Company and on its results, but we cannot guarantee that this trend will continue.
In the last few years, Petrobras’ practice was not to immediately reflect the volatility of international prices of oil and its derivatives in the Brazilian market. We cannot guarantee that this trend will continue. In October 2011, the Brazilian government reduced the percentage of anhydrous ethanol mixed to gasoline from 25% to 20%, due to a shortage of ethanol production. To avoid the price increase of the gasoline to the end consumer, the government decided to reduce the CIDE tax from R$ 230/m³ to R$ 193/m³ at the same time. In November 2011, the government reduced again the CIDE tax of the gasoline A to R$ 91/m³ and the diesel from R$ 70/m³ to R$ 47/m³. This reduction of the CIDE tax allowed Petrobras to increase gasoline and diesel prices by 10% and 2%, respectively, without affecting prices to the distributor. In June 2012, Petrobras increased gasoline and diesel prices by 3.9% and 7.8%, respectively, and the CIDE tax of both products was simultaneously
44

reduced to zero, offsetting the effect of the increase in prices. In July 2012, Petrobras increased diesel price by 6.2%. Due to the Real depreciation and the prices of oil derivatives in the foreign market, (i) in January 2013, Petrobras increased gasoline and diesel prices by 6.6% and 5.4%, respectively; (ii) in March 2013, Petrobras announced a new adjustment in diesel price, of 4.9%; and (iii) in November 2013, Petrobras increased once more gasoline and diesel prices by 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively. In November 2014, Petrobras increased the prices of gasoline and diesel by 3.0% and 5.0%, respectively. In January 2015, the Brazilian government announced the return of the CIDE tax and the increase in the PIS and Cofins taxes on fuel, with an impact of R$ 220/m³ for gasoline and R$ 150/m³ for diesel as from February 1, 2015.
Effects of inflation over our operational costs and expenses
Ultrapar’s operational costs and expenses are substantially in reais, thus are influenced by the general price levels in the Brazilian economy. In 2014, 2013 and 2012, the variation of IPCA (Consumer Prices Index), the index adopted by the Brazilian government to set inflation targets, was 6.4%, 5.9% and 5.8%, respectively. From December 31, 2014 to January 31, 2015, the variation of IPCA was 1.2%.
Financial Result
The main macroeconomic factors that influence the financial results of Ultrapar are the foreign exchange and interest rates.
Exchange rate
Most of the transactions of the Company are located in Brazil and, therefore, the reference currency for currency risk management is the Real. Currency risk management is guided by neutrality of currency exposures and considers the transactional, accounting, and operational risks of the Company and its 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. Ultrapar and its subsidiaries use exchange rate hedging instruments (especially between the Real and the U.S. dollar) available in the financial market to protect their assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency and net investments in foreign operations, in order to reduce the effects of changes in exchange rates on its results and cash flows in Reais within the exposure limits under its Policy. Such foreign exchange hedging instruments have amounts, periods, and rates substantially equivalent to those of assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency to which they are related. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are stated below, translated into Reais as of December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012:

Interest Rate
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, debentures, BNDES and other development agencies 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. As of December 31, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had interest rate derivative financial instruments linked to domestic loans, swapping the fixed interest rate of certain debts to floating interest rate (CDI).
The table below shows the financial assets and liabilities exposed to floating interest rates as of December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012:

10.3 - Comments on material effects that the events below have caused or are expected to cause on the Company’s financial statements and results:

| a. | Introduction or disposal of operating segment

On January 31, 2014 was approved, by the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma, the merger by Ultrapar of all shares issued by Extrafarma. With the approval of the merger, Extrafarma became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultrapar and the its shareholders have become Ultrapar’s long-term shareholders. The association with Extrafarma marks the entry of Ultrapar in significant and growing market of Brazilian pharmaceutical retail, making it the third distribution business and the Company's specialty retail.
As a consequence of the closing of the transaction, on January 31, 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, totaling R$ 3.838,7 million in capital, divided in 556.405.096 shares, and R$ 498.8 million of increase in capital reserve, totaling an increase in shareholders’ equity of R$ 640.7 million.
Additionally, 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, after 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.
There was no disposal of operating segment in the fiscal year 2014.

| b. | Establishment, acquisition or sale of ownership interest

48

Extrafarma’s acquisition occurred through the merger by Ultrapar of all shares issued by Extrafarma, as described in "Item 10.3.a Introduction or disposal of operating segment" above.
There was no relevant establishment or sale of ownership interest in the fiscal year 2014, that have caused or are expected to cause significant effects on the Company's financial statements.

| c. | Unusual events or transactions

10.5 - Comments on the Company’s critical accounting policies
The presentation of our financial condition and results of operations requires our management to make judgments regarding the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain on the carrying value of our assets and liabilities and may affect the reported amount of them as well as our revenues and expenses. The financial statements include, among others, estimates mainly related to (i) determining the fair value of financial instruments (Notes 4, 14 and 22), (ii) the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts (Notes 5 and 22), (iii) the determination of provisions for losses of inventories (Note 6), (iv) the determination of deferred income taxes amounts (Note 9), (v) useful life of property, plant and equipment (Note 12), (vi) the useful life of intangible assets and the determination of the recoverable amount of goodwill (Note 13), (vii) provisions for assets retirement obligations (Note 18), (viii) provisions for tax, civil and labor liabilities (Note 23) and (ix) estimates for the preparation of actuarial reports (Note 24) and (x) the fair value determination of the subscription warrants – indemnification (Note 3.a and 22)
Actual results may differ from those estimated under different variables, assumptions or conditions, even though our management believes that its accounting estimates are reasonable. The following paragraphs review the critical accounting estimates that management considers most important for understanding our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. An accounting estimate is considered a critical accounting estimate if it meets the following criteria:

| · | The accounting estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made; and

| · | Different estimates that management reasonably could have used for the accounting estimate in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, would have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We have identified the following accounting policies as critical:
Allowance for doubtful accounts
We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the subsequent inability of our customers to make required payments. The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded in an amount we consider sufficient to cover any probable losses on realization of our accounts receivable from our customers, as well as other receivables, and is included as selling expenses; no adjustment is made to net sales and services revenue. In order to establish the allowance for doubtful accounts, our management constantly evaluates the amount and characteristics of our accounts receivable. When significant delays occur and the likelihood of receiving these payments decreases, a provision is made. In case receivables in arrears are guaranteed or there are reasonable grounds to believe they will be paid, no provision is made. If the financial conditions of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required in future periods. However, because we cannot predict with certainty the future financial stability of our customers, we cannot guarantee that our reserves will continue to be adequate. Actual credit losses may be greater than the allowance we have established, which could have a significant impact on our selling expenses (see Notes 5 and 22).
Provisions for inventory losses
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 team. For further information on Ultrapar’s provisions for inventory losses, see Note 6.
52

Deferred income tax and social contribution
We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities which do not expire, arising from tax loss carryforwards, temporary add-backs, revaluation of property, plants and equipment and other procedures. We periodically review the deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation allowance, as required, based on historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. In the event we or one of our subsidiaries operate at a loss or are unable to generate sufficient future taxable income, or if there is a material change in the actual effective tax rates or time period within which the underlying temporary differences become taxable or deductible, we evaluate the need to establish a valuation allowance against all or a significant portion of our deferred tax assets, resulting in an increase in our effective tax rate, thereby decreasing net income. A high degree of management judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance. The principal uncertainty relates to the likelihood of future taxable income from the subsidiary that generated the deferred tax asset. A change in our projections of profitability could result in the need to record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, resulting in a negative impact of future results (see Notes 9.a).
Provision for civil and labor tax risks
We are currently involved in certain legal and administrative proceedings that arise from our normal course of business. We believe that the extent to which these legal provisions are recognized in our consolidated financial statements is adequate. It is our policy to record accrued liabilities in regard to lawsuits when the probability of an existing obligation is considered more likely than not to occur in the opinion of our management, based on information available to the Company, including information obtained from our internal and external legal advisors. Future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in our assumptions, by the effectiveness of our strategies relating to these proceedings, by future developments in each matter being discussed or by changes in approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters (see Note 23, items a, b, c, d).
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 Note 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.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets include assets acquired by Ultrapar 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 asset 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.

53

| · | 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.

Ultrapar and its subsidiaries have not recognized intangible assets that were created internally. Ultrapar and its subsidiaries have not recognized intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life, except for goodwill, the am/pm brand and for the in 2014 acquired Extrafarma brand (See Note nº 3.a).

The Company review, at least annually, the existence of any indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is an indication, the Company estimates 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 net of disposal costs 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.
To assess the value in use, the Company considers the projections of future cash flows, trends, and outlooks, as well as the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. Such 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 present value of expected 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.
The Company performs impairment tests of goodwill balances for expected future profitability, as shown in the table of Note 13. The process of determining the value in use involves assumptions, judgments and estimates on cash flows, such as growth rates of revenues, costs and expenses, estimates of investments and future working capital and discount rates. The assumptions about the growth of future cash flows projections 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 during the economic life of the different CGU to which the goodwill is related.
The assessment of the value in use is made for a period of five years, and thereafter considers the perpetuity of the premises, with a view to business continuity capacity indefinitely.
To December 31, 2014 the discount and real growth rates used to extrapolate projections ranged from 9.3% to 26.4% and 0% to 5.0% per year, respectively, depending on the analyzed UGC.
The impairment test of goodwill balances of the Company did not result in the need of recognition loss for the year ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012.
Provisions for assets retirement obligations
Corresponds to 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
54

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 by the IPCA (Consumer Prices Index) 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.
Fair value of financial instruments
Our financial instruments 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.

| · | 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 other comprehensive and accumulated income in the shareholders’ equity. 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 variations are recognized in profit or loss. The balances are stated at acquisition cost plus the interests, 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. 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

55

| 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.

In order to estimate fair values, we consider several variables, such as interest rates, discount rates, foreign exchange rates and future cash flows. Our most important sources of information concerning these variables are the market projections of future exchange and interest rates provided by the BM&FBOVESPA and BBA – British Bankers Association. We believe BM&FBOVESPA and BBA – British Bankers Association to be the most adequate and reliable sources of information available for our calculations. However, given the volatility inherent in financial markets, estimates concerning the variables used to calculate fair values are subject to constant change. As a consequence, our judgment related to, among other issues, the behavior of these variables, the selection of sources of information and the timing of calculation, directly affects the fair values of our financial instruments and the amount of gains or losses recorded in the income statement. Additional information regarding fair value of financial instruments is available in Notes 4, 14 and 22.
Post-retirement benefits
Ultrapar and its subsidiaries offer their employees a defined contribution pension plan, managed by Ultraprev — Associação de Previdência Complementar. 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 and its subsidiaries do not guarantee the amounts or the duration of the benefits received by each employee that retires.
Ultrapar 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. The amounts related to such benefits were determined based on a valuation conducted by an independent actuary and are recorded in the financial statements in accordance with Resolution CVM 695/2012.

| b. | Disclosed acquisitions of plants, equipment, patents or other assets that may materially affect the issuer’s production capacity

There is no disclosed acquisitions of plants, equipment, patents or other assets that may materially affect the issuer's production capacity.
c. New products and services
Oxiteno carries on a wide range of research and development activities, principally related to the application of specialty chemicals and improvements in production processes. As of December 31, 2014, 123 employees of Oxiteno were engaged in research and development and engineering activities. Oxiteno’s research and development expenditures in 2014 and 2013 were R$ 36 million and R$ 28 million, respectively. In 2004, Oxiteno founded its own “Science and Technology Council”, with six of the world’s major specialists in surfactants as members. These specialists, with experience in the surfactant industry or in the academic environment in the US, Europe and Latin America, follow the trends and opportunities in the sector. Since 2004, the council, currently composed of five specialists, has met once a year in September in São Paulo to analyze Oxiteno’s research and development project portfolio, as well as the management methodology applied. Their recommendations enable Oxiteno to improve its research and development activities’ efficiency, as well as to broaden the reach of its partnerships with international entities.
Oxiteno’s investments in research and development have resulted in the introduction of 57 new applications for its products during the last three years. Oxiteno will continue to invest in research and development focused on developing new product applications to meet clients’ needs.
Ipiranga constantly develops specific initiatives for each segment in which it operates, such as the offering of supply and technical support at large clients’ facilities. In the urban service stations segment, the wide range of non-fuel products and services and the constant pursue of excellence have being contributing significantly to the increase in the number of consumers and the client-loyalty for its service stations. Additionally, the offer of convenience and services at the service stations aims at greater satisfaction to the customers, and therefore more value added. In addition to fueling its vehicles the consumer can also shop at am/pm convenience stores and at Ipirangashop.com and enjoy other services provided in many service stations of Ipiranga’s network. Besides filling in the tank of the vehicle, the consumer can also make purchases at convenience stores am/pm, of which approximately 360 include bakeries, in Ipirangashop.com and still enjoy other services installed in several service stations of the network. In another pioneer initiative, Ipiranga launched in 2009 the program “Km de Vantagens”, a loyalty program in the fuel industry that grants rewards and benefits to customers and resellers that has strengthened as an important platform for customer relationship and for other initiatives of
62

Ipiranga, currently with around 18 million participants, up 20% over 2013. The partnership members also expanded throughout the year, exceeding the number of 70 partner companies, including cinemas, airlines, restaurants, soccer clubs, parks, performance venues and sports stores. Ipiranga’s Posto Ecoeficiente project (Eco-Efficient service station) is one of the differentiation initiatives that reflect Ultrapar’s innovation philosophy. It aggregates, in a single project, innovative solutions and sustainable technologies, in harmony with the profitability of the service station for the reseller. The Posto Ecoeficiente project involves solutions in the construction and operation of service stations that result in better use of resources, such as water and electricity, and reduction of wastage and residues. The Postos Ecoeficientes reached, in 2014, 924 service stations in Brazil and over 400 service stations are under construction. In 2012, among the initiatives of Ipiranga, we highlight the strengthening of Posto Virtual and the creation of ConectCar. ConectCar started its operations in 2013 and reached, in 2014, approximately 350 thousand customers, and is now available in almost all toll roads in Brazil. The chip installed on the vehicle windshield will allow the automatic opening of toll gates at lower costs, through a prepaid system and free tuition. Additionally, it can be used for fuels purchase. The client may buy the chip at Ipiranga’s service stations, using the points of the loyalty program Km de Vantagens. In 2013, Ipiranga launched the Ipiranga Frotas, a service for the remote control of the fleet, allowing the companies to control and monitor better its vehicle fleet. Another pioneer initiative in 2013 was the app Posto Ipiranga na Web, the first of its kind to be launched in Brazil. The app allows the user with a smartphone to purchase fuels credits, which was already possible through the Ipiranga website. In 2014, the novelty was the “Beer Cave”, a new beverage shopping experience for customers in am/pm stores. It is a cold room with a wide variety of labels of domestic and imported beers. The Beer Cave is part of a marketing action of the Heineken brewery partner. Approximately 100 am/pm shops throughout Brazil implemented the novelty in 2014.

ANNEX V – ITEM 13 OF THE REFERENCE FORM
68

13. | Management compensation

13.1. | Compensation policy or practice for the Board of Directors, Statutory and non-statutory Officers and Fiscal Council

| a. | Purpose of the compensation policy or practice

The purposes of Ultrapar’s compensation policy and practices are (i) to align the interests between executives and shareholders, based on the principle of sharing risks and returns, (ii) to converge individual goals to the Company’s strategy, and (iii) to recognize the contribution and retain professionals, based on market references.
Following these principles, Ultrapar adopts a differentiated and competitive compensation plan, a plan that includes the use of value creation metrics to establish variable compensation targets, differentiated benefits to executives and a stock ownership plan.

| b. | Compensation composition

| i. | Description and purpose of each compensation component

Board of Directors

| · | Fixed compensation: a monthly amount, in order to follow the market standards, composed exclusively by compensation and contribution to the social security, in order to remunerate the responsibility and complexity inherent to the position. The Chairman and the Vice Chairman earn a higher amount than other directors as a result of the positions held.

| · | Compensation for the participation in specialized committees: a monthly amount, equivalent to 1/3 of the Director’s compensation, independent of the position held in the Board of Directors. If a Director is appointed for more than one specialized committee, the monthly amount is equivalent to 50% of the Director’s compensation.

| · | Variable compensation: not practiced.

Fiscal Council

| · | Fixed compensation: a monthly amount approved by shareholders in the annual meeting, composed exclusively by compensation and contribution to the social security, in order to remunerate the responsibility and complexity inherent to the position of member of Fiscal Council. The compensation of each member of the Fiscal Council must be equal to at least 10% of the average salary of the Statutory Officers. The President earns a higher amount than other members as a result of the position held.

| · | Variable compensation: not practiced.

Officers

| · | Fixed compensation (salary and direct and indirect benefits): a monthly amount paid with the purpose of remunerating the responsibility and complexity inherent to each position, the individual contribution and the experience of each professional. The fixed compensation of Officers includes salaries, contribution to social security, vacation bonus, thirteenth salary, health care plan (medical),

69

group life insurance and physical check up, among others. The direct and indirect benefits are intended to follow the practices adopted by the market and to recognize the individual contribution.

| · | Short-term variable compensation: an annual amount paid in order to align the interests of the executives with those of the Company. This amount is linked to (i) the businesses performance, which is measured through the Economic Value Added (EVA®) metric, and (ii) the achievement of annual individual goals established based on the strategic planning and focused on expansion and operational excellence projects, people development and market positioning, among others.

| · | Long-term variable compensation: the purpose of this portion is to align long-term interests of executives and shareholders and to retain executives. The previous program had been effective from 2006 to 2011, with payment in 2012 after verified the achievement of the established goals. This compensation was a result of the stock price at the end of 2011, which surpassed the goal of more than doubling the value of the Company's shares between 2006 and 2011, generating significant returns to Ultrapar’s shareholders. The current program, set up in February 2014, stabelishes that Ultrapar’s CEO may receive additional variable compensation as a result of the performance of the Company's shares between 2013 and 2017.

| · | Share ownership compensation plan: the purpose of the stock ownership plan is to align long-term interests of executives and shareholders and to retain executives. Since 2003 Ultrapar has adopted a stock ownership plan under which the executive receives the beneficial ownership of shares held in treasury for a period of 5 to 10 years, after which the ownership of the shares is effectively transferred, provided that the relationship between the executive and the Company or its subsidiaries has not been interrupted. Participation in the stock ownership plan derives from the function of the executive’s performance, the expectations of future contribution and long-term retention aiming at materializing projects and future results.

| · | Post-retirement benefit: aiming at encouraging long-term savings, since 2001 Ultrapar has offered a defined contribution plan managed by Ultraprev – Associação de Previdência Complementar. Under the terms of this plan, the basic contribution of each executive is calculated by the application of a percentage of his or her salary. Ultrapar contributes, on behalf of the executive, with an amount equal to his or her basic contribution up to the limit of 11% of his or her reference salary. In addition, besides the contribution to the Severance Pay Fund, Ultrapar established in 2010 a planned retirement policy with the purpose of preparing the executive for his or her retirement and to structure succession plans in the Company. The post-retirement benefit resulting from this policy mainly consists in an additional compensation for the termination of the employment relationship by the initiative of the Company. The CEO is not eligible to this retirement policy.

| · | Post-retirement benefit: reflects the executive’s period in the Company, age and fixed compensation.

| · | Short-term variable compensation: evolution linked to the progression of the Company’s results under the concept of economic value added (EVA®), subject to the achievement of a minimum pre-set level.

| · | Long-term variable compensation: the amount correspondent to the program effective between 2012 and 2017 (see “Items 13.1.b.i. and 13.1.b.iii”) will be a function of the achievement of the established minimum target linked to the Company’s share price appreciation.

| · | Share compensation plan: the potential benefit associated with the stock ownership plan will be vested if the executive remains in the Company in the long term, thus committing to sustained value generation.

| e. | Relationship between the compensation policy or practice and the interests of the Company

Ultrapar’s compensation policy and practices aim at short and long-term alignment with the interests of shareholders. Short-term and long-term variable compensation, which is a material portion of the overall compensation, is linked to economic value added growth targets, that is the main interest of shareholders. Variable compensation also strengthens the focus of the executives to the adherence to the strategic growth plan approved by the Board of Directors, with short-term compensation being linked to annual growth goals of value generation and long-term compensation being directly linked to the evolution of the Company’s market value. The stock ownership plan turns executives into shareholders of the Company and is a strong element for aligning long-term interests.

72

The whole compensation of Ultrapar’s Statutory Officers is supported by its subsidiaries or controlled companies, as a result of their activities as managers of such companies.

On January 31, 2014 the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma approved the incorporation by Ultrapar of all shares issued by Extrafarma. As a consequence, 12,021,100 new common registered shares, with no par value of the Company were issued, increasing the number of shares of capital stock to 556,405,096 shares. Of the new shares issued, 1,717,300 shares were delivered to Mr. Paulo Correa Lazera, that became a member of Ultrapar’s executive board on the same date.
On the same date, 14 subscription warrants were issued in favor of the shareholders of Extrafarma under the context of the merger of shares. Two of the subscription warrants issued were delivered to Mr. Paulo Correa Lazera.
The 14 subscription warrants issued, 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, after 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$ 42,1 million. 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.
