Considerations on the financial and operational information

Standards and criteria adopted in preparing the information

Ultrapar’s financial statements for the year ended December 31 st , 2009 were prepared in accordance with the accounting directives set out in the Brazilian Corporate Law, being adopted the alterations introduced by Laws 11,638/07 and 11,941/09 (former Provisional Measure 449/08), as well as the CVM standards, instructions and guidelines, which regulate them. In connection with the process of converging the accounting practices adopted in Brazil to the international financial reporting standards (IFRS), several guidelines, interpretations and orientations were issued during 2009 with mandatory application for the year ending December 31 st , 2010. Ultrapar decided to rely on the option foreseen in Article 1 of CVM Resolution 603/2009, as amended by CVM Resolution 626/2010, an option that allows companies to report their quarterly information for the periods ended June 30 th and March 31 st , 2010 in accordance with the accounting standards valid on December 31 st , 2009.

The financial information of Ultragaz, Ipiranga, Oxiteno and Ultracargo is presented without elimination of transactions carried out between the companies. Therefore, the sum of such information may not correspond to Ultrapar’s consolidated financial information. In addition, except when otherwise indicated, the amounts presented in this document are expressed in millions of R$ and are subject to rounding off. Consequently, the total amounts presented in the tables may differ from the direct sum of the amounts that precede them.

Effect of the acquisition - Texaco

In August 2008, Ultrapar announced the signing of the sale and purchase agreement for the acquisition of Texaco’s fuel distribution business in Brazil. The results of Texaco were consolidated in Ultrapar’s financial statements from April 1 st , 2009, after the closing of the acquisition on March 31 st , 2009. Ultrapar’s financial statements in periods prior to 2Q09 do not include Texaco’s results.

In order to provide a better understanding of the progression of Ipiranga’s recurring results, the table below summarizes Ipiranga’s results for 2Q09, 3Q09, 4Q09, 1Q10 and 2Q10 ex-non-recurring expenses related to the conversion of Texaco service stations into the Ipiranga brand and to the integration of the acquired operations. The analysis and discussion of the progression in Ipiranga’s results presented in this document exclude non-recurring items, in order to provide comparability of the information and a better understanding of the company’s performance.

Highlights

Ø Dividend distribution of R$ 177 million approved – On this date, the Board of Directors of Ultrapar approved the dividend payment of R$ 177 million, equivalent to R$ 1.32 per share, as an advance of the dividends for the fiscal year 2010, to be paid from August 27, 2010. This amount corresponds to a 53% payout of the net earnings of the first half of 2010, representing an annualized dividend yield of 3% over Ultrapar's average share price in the same period.

Ø Ultracargo concludes the sale of its in-house logistics, solid bulk storage and road transportation businesses and focus its activities on the storage for liquid bulk – On July 1 st , 2010, Ultrapar concluded the sale of Ultracargo’s in-house logistics, solid bulk storage and road transportation businesses with the transfer of the shares of AGT – Armazéns Gerais e Transporte Ltda. and Petrolog Serviços e Armazéns Gerais Ltda. to Aqces Logística Internacional Ltda. and the receipt of R$ 74 million by Ultracargo, in addition to the R$ 8 million deposit received upon the announcement of the transaction on March 31 st , 2010. This transaction allows Ultracargo to focus exclusively on its liquid bulk storage business, a segment in which it has a leadership position and will pursue opportunities to maximize the benefits from the increasing demand for logistics infrastructure in Brazil.

Ø Reduction in the cost of debt and extension in the debt maturity profile – In June 2010, Ultrapar’s Board of Directors approved the hiring of a loan in the total amount of R$ 900 million, with a four-year term and interest rate equivalent to 99% of CDI (interbank deposit rate). This loan reduces the average cost of debt of the company and provides higher financial flexibility.

Executive summary of the results

The economic indicators related to the second quarter of 2010 point to the continued expansion of the Brazilian economy, evidenced by the 9% growth of the Brazilian GDP in 1Q10 over the same period of 2009, notably the industrial segment that grew 15%. Such growth, boosted by the strong domestic market and credit expansion, has positively reflected in a robust labor market and real income increase. The number of light vehicles licensed in 1H10 accumulates a 7% increase compared with the same period of 2009. However, the effects of the greater dynamism of the economy in inflation led the Central Bank to raise the basic interest rate (SELIC) to 10.75%, the third increase in 2010. In the international environment, after the strong increase in 2009, commodities prices have been relatively stable, especially oil, which, in 2010, has been traded at around US$ 75 to US$ 85/barrel.

In 2Q10, Ultragaz’s sales volume grew by 2% compared with 2Q09, boosted by the 4% growth in the bulk segment, as a result of the higher level of economic activity. Ultragaz’s EBITDA reached R$ 83 million in the quarter, up 13% from 2Q09, mainly as a result of a recovery in margins, to which the operational efficiency programs implemented and the performance in the bulk segment contributed.

At Ipiranga, fuel sales volume grew by 8% in 2Q10 over 2Q09, as a consequence of greater economic dynamism and the continued growth of the Brazilian light vehicle fleet. Ipiranga’s EBITDA in 2Q10 amounted to R$ 238 million, up 19% over 2Q09, resulting in an EBITDA of R$ 48/m 3 , higher than the R$ 43/m 3 margin for 2Q09.

In 2Q10, Oxiteno reported a 10% sales volume growth compared with 2Q09, on the back of the higher level of economic activity in the domestic market and expansions in production capacity. EBITDA amounted to R$ 71 million in 2Q10, comparing with R$ 29 million in 2Q09, despite the 14% stronger Real , due to (i) the increase in sales volume, (ii) the recovery in margins, to which the recent stability in raw materials prices and a enhanced product mix contributed, and (iii) the effect of historical costs higher than replacement costs in 2Q09.

Ultracargo reported average effective storage 14% higher than in 2Q09, mainly due to the consolidation of the acquired terminal in Suape in December 2009 and the higher volume of operations in Aratu terminal, as a result of the expansion completed in 2009. On the other hand, total kilometrage travelled in 2Q10 declined by 13% from 2Q09, especially due to Ultracargo’s decision to reduce its presence in some segments during 2009. As a result, Ultracargo’s EBITDA totaled R$ 28 million in 2Q10, up 1% over 2Q09.

Ultrapar’s consolidated EBITDA totaled R$ 433 million in 2Q10, up 35% over 2Q09, due to the EBITDA growth in all businesses. Net earnings for 2Q10 reached R$ 196 million, up 110% over 2Q09, mainly as a result of the growth in EBITDA.

Oxiteno – Oxiteno’s sales volume totaled 176 thousand tons, up 10% (16 thousand tons) over 2Q09, highlighting the 15% increase in sales volume of specialty chemicals, on the back of higher level of economic activity compared with 2Q09 and enabled by the expansions in the production capacity. In the Brazilian market, sales volume increased by 18% (19 thousand tons), with positive progression in all markets, notably in specialty chemicals sold to the cosmetics, agrochemicals and coatings industries. Sales volume outside Brazil decreased by 7% (4 thousand tons) due to higher spot sales of glycols in 2Q09. Compared with 1Q10, sales volume increased by 7% (12 thousand tons) as a result of seasonality between quarters. Oxiteno’s sales volume for 1H10 totals 339 thousand tons, up 20% over 1H09.

Oxiteno – Sales volume (000 tons)

Ultracargo – In 2Q10, Ultracargo reported a 14% increase in average effective storage compared with 2Q09, due to the consolidation of the terminal acquired in Suape in December 2009 and higher volume of operations in Aratu terminal, on the back of the capacity expansion completed, partially offset by a reduction in the handling of ethanol. In the transportation segment, total kilometrage travelled in 2Q10 declined by 13% compared with 2Q09, especially due to Ultracargo’s decision to reduce its presence in certain segments during 2009. Compared with 1Q10, Ultracargo’s average effective storage was 4% higher and the total kilometrage travelled increased by 2%. In 1H10, Ultracargo accumulates an 18% increase in the average effective storage of its terminals and a 16% decrease in the total kilometrage travelled.

Ipiranga – Ipiranga’s sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 275 million in 2Q10, up 2% compared with 2Q09, despite the 8% increase in sales volume, due to the implementation of the operational and administrative synergy plan. Compared with 1Q10, sales, general and administrative expenses increased by 3%, despite the 8% increase in sales volume, due to higher expenses related to advertising and marketing in 1Q10. Excluding depreciation, Ipiranga’s

sales, general and administrative expenses represented R$ 49/m 3 of product sold, lower than the R$ 51/m 3 in 2Q09 and in 1Q10. For 1H10, Ipiranga’s sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 542 million, up 21% from 1H09, mainly due to the consolidation of Texaco’s sales, general and administrative expenses from 2Q09 onwards.

Oxiteno – Oxiteno’s sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 81 million in 2Q10, up 19% and 22% compared with 2Q09 and 1Q10 respectively, as a consequence of (i) higher freight expenses resulting from increased sales volume and (ii) higher variable compensation, in line with the strong earnings progression. For 1H10, sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 147 million, up 12% compared with 1H09.

Ultracargo – Ultracargo’s sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 23 million in 2Q10, up 3% from 2Q09, despite the 14% growth in stored volume and the effects of inflation in the period, mainly as a result of the reduced presence in the transportation segment and operational synergies resulting from União Terminais’ integration during 2009. Compared with 1Q10, Ultracargo’s sales, general and administrative expenses increased by 16%, especially due to higher indemnification expenses related to the transportation segment in 2Q10. For 1H10, sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 43 million, down 5% compared with 1H09.

EBITDA – Ultrapar’s EBITDA amounted to R$ 433 million in 2Q10, 35% and 20% growth over 2Q09 and 1Q10, respectively. In the first half of 2010, Ultrapar’s EBITDA amounted to R$ 796 million, up 34% compared with the first half of 2009 as a result of the EBITDA growth in all businesses and the consolidation of Texaco’s EBITDA from 2Q09 onwards.

EBITDA (R$ million)

1 Reported values, including non-recurring items

Ultragaz – Ultragaz’s EBITDA amounted to R$ 83 million in 2Q10, up 13% over 2Q09, especially due to a recovery in margins, to which the operational efficiency programs implemented contributed, and an improvement in the bulk segment performance, partially offset by an increase in expenses related to promotional and sales campaigns and higher variable compensation. Compared with 1Q10, Ultragaz’s EBITDA increased by 18%, mainly as a consequence of a seasonally higher volume. For 1H10, Ultragaz’s EBITDA reached R$ 154 million, up 22% from 1H09.

Ipiranga – Ipiranga’s EBITDA amounted to R$ 238 million in 2Q10, up 19% over 2Q09, mainly on the back of higher sales volume and the implementation of the operational and administrative synergy plan. Compared with 1Q10, Ipiranga’s EBITDA declined by 2% due to a better product mix in 1Q10. For 1H10, Ipiranga’s EBITDA reached R$ 481 million, up 40% from 1H09.

In 2Q10, Ipiranga’s unit EBITDA margin amounted to R$ 48/m³, a R$ 5/m³ or 11% growth compared to the EBITDA margin of R$ 43/m³ in 2Q09. Compared with 1Q10, Ipiranga’s EBITDA declined by R$ 5/m 3 or 9%, mainly due to the variation in the product mix between quarters, derived from the strong fluctuation in the ethanol availability in the market during 1H10.

In 2Q10, Ipiranga’s reported EBITDA, which considers non-recurring items, amounted to R$ 236 million, up 37% over 2Q09 and up 12% over 1Q10. For 1H10, Ipiranga’s EBITDA reached R$ 446 million, up 41% from 1H09.

Oxiteno – Oxiteno’s EBITDA totaled R$ 71 million in 2Q10, up 142% over 2Q09, despite the 14% stronger Real , as a consequence of the 10% increase in sales volume and the recovery in margins. Compared with 1Q10, Oxiteno’s EBITDA increased by 79%, as a consequence of seasonally higher volume and the recovery in margins. Oxiteno’s unit EBITDA reached US$ 224/ton in 2Q10, up 155% and 68% over 2Q09 and 1Q10, respectively. For 1H10, Oxiteno’s EBITDA reached R$ 110 million, up 46% from 1H09.

Excluding the effect derived from the process of realization of inventories with historical costs higher than replacement costs of R$ 35 million in 2Q09, Oxiteno’s EBITDA would have increased by 10% compared with 2Q09, despite the 14% stronger Real in this 2Q10.

Ultracargo – Ultracargo’s EBITDA amounted to R$ 28 million in 2Q10, a 1% increase over 2Q09, having the higher volume of operations in its terminals been partially offset by the lower kilometrage travelled in the transportation segment. In relation to 1Q10, the company’s EBITDA decreased by 7%, mainly as a result of higher administrative expenses in 2Q10. For 1H10, Ultracargo’s EBITDA reached R$ 59 million, up 13% from 1H09.

Depreciation and amortization – Total depreciation and amortization costs and expenses in 2Q10 amounted to R$ 96 million, down R$ 9 million and R$ 5 million from 2Q09 and 1Q10, respectively, mainly as a result of the revision in the economic useful life of assets in accordance with Technical Standard ICPC (Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee) 10, in effect from January 1 st , 2010 onwards. In 1H10, Ultrapar’s total depreciation costs and expenses amounted to R$ 197 million, down R$ 4 million from 1H09.

Financial result – Ultrapar reported net financial expense of R$ 68 million in 2Q10, R$ 19 million lower than that in 2Q09, mainly as a result of the reduction in the cost of debt and the lower average net debt. The net debt to last 12 months EBITDA ratio decreased from 2.0 times at the end of 2Q09, right after the disbursement for the acquisition of Texaco, to 1.5 time at the end of 2Q10. Compared with 1Q10, net financial expense was R$ 7 million lower. In 1H10, Ultrapar reported net financial expense of R$ 143 million, R$ 3 million lower than that in 1H09.

Net earnings – Ultrapar’s consolidated net earnings in 2Q10 amounted to R$ 196 million, a growth of 110% and 39% over 2Q09 and 1Q10, respectively, mainly due to the EBITDA growth and lower financial expenses in 2Q10. In 1H10, Ultrapar reported net earnings of R$ 337 million, a growth of 82% over 1H09.

Outlook

The dynamism of the Brazilian economy is expected to continue to drive the results of our businesses in the next quarters. At Ipiranga, in addition to the positive impacts of the stronger economic activity in diesel sales, we also have visibility for the continued growth in the vehicle fleet, as evidenced by the announcements of expansion projects by car manufacturers, higher credit availability for car purchasing and low car penetration rates in Brazil. Furthermore, we will continue to implement our network expansion plan, mainly in the North, Northeast and Mid-West regions of Brazil, through the conversion of unbranded stations and acquisitions. Ultragaz, which over the last quarters reported substantial growth in its earnings with the realization of gains of the operational efficiency programs, is expected to benefit from the economic growth effects in the bulk segment volumes. At Oxiteno, the recent stability in raw materials prices combined with the benefits from the increased scale and operational leverage pave the way for the company to realize its earnings potential. Ultracargo, now exclusively focused on liquid bulk storage, will continue to benefit from the maturing process of its recent investments and to work on the expansions underway in its terminals. Finally, we will seek new investment opportunities in all our businesses, that reinforce our strategy of sustained growth and value creation.

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Ultrapar Participações S.A.

São Paulo - SP

We have reviewed the accounting information included in the Quarterly Financial Information of Ultrapar Participações S.A. (the Company) and in the consolidated Quarterly Financial Information of the Company and its subsidiaries for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, comprising the balance sheet, the statements of income, cash flows, changes in shareholders’ equity, management report and explanatory notes, which are the responsibility of its management .
Our review was conducted in accordance with the specific rules set forth by the IBRACON - The Brazilian Institute of Independent Auditors, in conjunction with the Federal Accounting Council - CFC and consisted mainly of the following: (a) inquiry and discussion with management responsible for the accounting, financial and operational areas of the Company and its subsidiaries, regarding the main criteria adopted in the preparation of the Quarterly Financial Information; and (b) reviewing information and s ubsequent events that have or may have relevant effects on the financial position and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the Quarterly Financial Information described above, for these to be in accordance with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), which are applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Financial Information.
As described in Explanatory Note 2, during 2009, the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) approved several pronouncements, interpretations and guidance issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (CPC), which are effective as from January 1, 2010 and changed the accounting practices adopted in Brazil. As permitted by CVM Resolution 603/09, Management of the Company and its subsidiaries opted to present its Quarterly Financial Information in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil until December 31, 2009, not applying these new accounting pronouncements, which have mandatory application for the fiscal year 2010. As required by the above mentioned CVM Resolution 603/09, the Company disclosed this fact in Explanatory Note 2 to the Quartely Financial Information, and described the main changes that could impact its year-ending financial statements, as well as it clarified the reasons for not disclosing the estimate of the possible effects in Company’s shareholder’s equity and statements of income, as required by this Resolution.

1 Operations

Ultrapar Participações S.A. (“Company”), with headquarters in the City of São Paulo, engages in the investment of its own capital in commercial and industrial activities and related businesses, including the subscription or acquisition of shares of other companies.

Through its subsidiaries, it operates in the segments of liquefied petroleum gas - LPG distribution (“Ultragaz”), light fuel & lubricant distribution, and related business (“Ipiranga”), production and marketing of chemicals (“Oxiteno”), and provision of logistics services for liquid bulk cargo (“Ultracargo”). The Company also operates a petroleum refining business through its investment in Refinaria de Petróleo Riograndense S.A. (“RPR”).

2 Presentation of interim financial statements

The individual and consolidated interim financial statements were prepared according to the accounting practices adopted in Brazil, which include the Brazilian Corporate Law, the standards, guidelines and interpretations issued by the Brazilian Accounting Standards Committee and the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM), applicable to the end of the quarter.

Within the process of convergence of accounting practices adopted in Brazil to international standards of financial reporting (IFRS) several pronouncements, interpretations and guidelines were issued during the year 2009 with mandatory application for the fiscal years ended December 2010 and the financial statements for 2009 to be released in conjunction with the financial statements of 2010 for comparison purposes.

The Company’s management is evaluating the potential effects associated with these pronouncements, interpretations and guidelines that will have impacts on the Company’s financial statements. This process involves the review of internal controls and electronic systems as well as the measurement of the initial adoption of the new accounting standards.

The Company's management opted to use the provision of Article 1 of Resolution CVM 603 of November 10, 2009, amended by Resolution CVM 626 of March 31, 2010, by which it is permitted to public companies to present their individual and consolidated interim financial statement forms for the period ended in June 30, 2010 comparative to the periods ended in March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, according to the accounting rules in effect on December 31, 2009.

3 Summary of main accounting practices

a. Recognition of income

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

b. Cash equivalents

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

c. Financial instruments

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

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

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

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

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

Notes to the interim financial statements

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

The Company and its subsidiaries designate certain derivative financial instruments used to hedge against changes in interest rates and variations in the exchange rate as cash flow hedge. In the case of derivatives designed to hedge cash flows against changes caused by the variation in interest rates, the difference between the fair value of the financial instrument and its updated cost is recognized as a valuation adjustment in the shareholders’ equity, not affecting the income statement of the Company and its subsidiaries. In the case of foreign exchange derivatives designated by subsidiary RPR for hedge of future cash flows, the effect of variation in the derivative is posted to the valuation adjustment in shareholders’ equity until the time when the hedged item affects the income statement. The difference between the fair value of the derivative and updated cost is recognized directly in income of the subsidiary. Gains and losses recorded in the shareholders’ equity are included in income, in case of financial instruments prepayment.

The Company and its subsidiaries designate derivative financial instruments used to compensate variations due to changes in interest rates in the market value of contracted debt in Reais as fair value hedge. Such variations, as well as the difference between the derivative financial instrument fair value and its updated cost, are recognized in the income.

For further detail on financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries, see Notes 5, 16, and 21.

d. Current and non-current assets

The trade accounts receivable are recorded at the amount billed, adjusted to the present value if applicable, including all direct taxes of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Allowance for doubtful accounts is calculated based on estimated losses and is set at an amount deemed by management to be sufficient to cover any loss on realization of accounts receivable.

Inventories are stated at the lower of average acquisition or production cost, and replacement cost or market value.

The other assets are stated at the lower of cost and realizable value, including, if applicable, the interest earned, monetary changes and changes in exchange rates incurred or less a provision for loss and, if applicable, adjustment to present value (see Note 3.q).

e. Investments

Investments in subsidiaries are valued by the equity method of accounting.

Investments in companies in which management has a significant influence or in which it holds 20% or more of the voting stock, or that are part of a group under common control are also accounted for the equity method of accounting (see Note 12).

The other Investments are stated at acquisition cost less provision for loss, unless the loss is considered temporary, and also include advances to acquisition of investments.

f. Property, plant and equipment

Recorded at acquisition or construction cost, including financial charges incurred on fixed assets under construction, as well as significant maintenance costs resulting from scheduled plant outages.

Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method, at the annual rates stated in Note 13, over the useful/economic life of the property, revised according to ICPC 10 and applied from January 1, 2010.

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the contract term and useful/economic life of the property.

g. Financial leases

• Finance leases

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

• Operating leases

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

h. Intangible assets

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

• Goodwill is carried at the original value net of income and social contribution taxes less accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2008, when itceased to be amortized.

• Other intangible assets acquired from third parties, such as software and commercial property rights, are measured at the total acquisition cost less accumulated amortization expenses.

Ultrapar Participações S.A. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the interim financial statements

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

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

i. Deferred charges

Deferred charges include restructuring costs incurred up to December 31, 2008, that will produce benefits in future years (see Note 15). The Company and its subsidiaries decided to maintain the balances existing as of December 31, 2008 until they are fully amortized.

j. Current and non-current liabilities

Current and noncurrent liabilities are stated at known or calculable amounts plus, if applicable, related charges, monetary changes and changes in exchange rates incurred until the date of the interim financial statements. When applicable the current and noncurrent liabilities are recorded in present value based on interest rates that reflect the term, currency and risk of each transaction. Transaction costs incurred and directly attributable to the activities necessary only to accomplish the transactions in order to raise funds through contracting debt or loans or by issuing debt bonds, as well as premiums in the issuance of debentures and other debt or equity instruments, are appropriated to their instrument and amortized to income over their term.

k. Income and social contribution taxes on profit

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

l. Provision for contingencies

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

m. Actuarial obligation for post-employment benefits

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

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

Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries Oxiteno México S.A. de C.V. and its subsidiaries, located in Mexico (functional currency: Mexican Peso), and Oxiteno Andina, C.A., located in Venezuela (functional currency: Bolivares Fortes), denominated in currencies other than that of the Company (functional currency: Real), are translated at the exchange rate in effect on the date of the interim financial statements. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized in the shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments and will be recognized as income if these investments are disposed of. The recorded balance in the shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments as of June 30, 2010 was R$ 19,708 of exchange rate loss (R$ 19,047 loss as of March 31, 2010).

Assets and liabilities of the other foreign subsidiaries, which do not have autonomy, are considered activities of their investor and are translated at the exchange rate in effect by the end of the respective period. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized as financial income. The gain recognized as income as of June 30, 2010 amounted to R$ 860 (R$ 6,993 loss as of June 30, 2009).

o. Use of estimates

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

p. Impairment of assets

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

q. Adjustment to present value

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

21 Risks and financial instruments (Consolidated)

Risk management and financial instruments - Governance

These risks are managed through control policies, specific strategies, and establishment of limits.

The Company has a conservative policy for the management of assets, financial instruments and financial risks approved by its Board of Directors (“Policy”). In accordance with the Policy, the main objectives of financial management is to preserve the value and liquidity of financial assets and ensure financial resources for the proper conduct of business, including expansions. The main financial risks considered in the Policy are risks associated with currencies, interest rates, credit and selection of financial instruments.

Currency risk

Most transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries are located in Brazil and, therefore, the reference currency for currency risk management is the Real. Currency risk management is guided by neutrality of currency exposures and considers the transactional, accounting, and operational risks of the Company and its subsidiaries and their exposure to changes in exchange rates. The Company considers as its main currency exposures the assets and liabilities in foreign currency and the short-term flow of net sales in foreign currency of Oxiteno.

The subsidiaries of the Company use exchange rate hedging instruments (especially between the Real and the U.S. dollar) available in the financial market to protect their assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency, in order to reduce the effects of changes in exchange rates on its results and cash flows in Reais within the exposure limits under its Policy. Such foreign exchange hedging instruments have amounts, periods, and rates substantially equivalent to those of assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency to which they are related. Assets and liabilities in foreign currency are stated below, translated into Reais as of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010:

(1) Amount disclosed due to its magnitude and to RPR having independent financial management. The net asset position as of June 30, 2010 of RPR reflects the amount of R$ 79.5 million of contracted exchange rate swaps primarily to protect the future import of oil, net of (i) R$ 17.4 million of financing in foreign currency and (ii) R$ 3.8 million of suppliers in foreign currency.

Based on the net liability position of R$ 193.0 million in foreign currency shown above, the Company estimates that a 10% devaluation (valuation) of the Real would produce a total effect of R$ 19.3 million, of which R$ 24.6 million of financial expense (revenue) and R$ 5.3 million of gain (loss) directly recognized in the shareholders’ equity in cumulative translation adjustments (see Note 3.n).

Interest rate risk

The Company and its subsidiaries adopt conservative policies for fund raising and use of financial resources and capital cost minimization. The financial investments of the Company and its subsidiaries are primarily held in transactions linked to the interest rate for Interbank Certificate of Deposit (CDI), as set forth in Note 5. Fund raising primarily results from financing from BNDES and other development agencies, debentures and funds raised in foreign currency, as shown in Note 16.

The Company does not actively manage risks associated with changes in the level of interest rates and attempts to maintain its financial interest assets and liabilities at floating rates. As of June 30, 2010, the Company and its subsidiaries had derivative financial instruments of interest rate linked to domestic loans, swapping pre-fixed interest of certain debts to floating rate.

Credit risks

The financial instruments that would expose the Company and its subsidiaries to credit risks of the counterparty are basically represented by cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and accounts receivable.

Credit risk of financial institutions - Such risk results from the inability of financial institutions to comply with their financial obligations to the Company and its subsidiaries due to insolvency. The Company and its subsidiaries regularly conduct a credit review of the institutions with which they hold cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and hedging instruments through various methodologies that assess liquidity, solvency, leverage, portfolio quality, etc. Cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and hedging instruments are held only with institutions with a solid credit history, chosen for safety and soundness. The volumes of cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and hedging instruments are subject to maximum limits by institution and, therefore, require diversification of counterparty.

Government credit risk - The Company and its subsidiaries have financial investments in federal government bonds of Brazil and countries rated AAA or Aaa by specialized credit rating agencies. The volumes of financial investments are subject to maximum limits by country and, therefore, require diversification of counterparty.

Customer credit risk - Such risks are managed by each business unit through specific criteria for acceptance of customers and credit rating and are additionally mitigated by diversification of sales. As of June 30, 2010, Ipiranga maintained R$ 99,101 (R$ 99,011 as of March 31, 2010), Ultragaz maintained R$ 15,887 (R$ 14,394 as of March 31, 2010), Oxiteno maintained R$ 2,368 (R$ 2,338 as of March 31, 2010) and the subsidiaries of Ultracargo maintained R$ 985 (R$ 858 as of March 31, 2010) as a provision for potential loss on their accounts and assets receivables.

Selection and use of financial instruments

In selecting financial investments and hedging instruments, an analysis is conducted to estimate rates of return, risks involved, liquidity, calculation methodology for the carrying value and fair value, and documentation applicable to the financial instruments. The financial instruments used to manage the financial resources of the Company and its subsidiaries are intended to preserve value and liquidity.

The Policy contemplates the use of derivative financial instruments only to cover identified risks and in amounts consistent with the risk (limited to 100% of the identified risk). The risks identified in the Policy are described in the above Sections of this Note, therefore, are subject to risk management. In accordance with the Policy, the Company and its subsidiaries can use forward contracts, swaps, options, and futures contracts to manage identified risks. Leveraged derivative instruments or instruments with a margin call are not permitted. Because the use of derivative financial instruments is limited to the coverage of identified risks, the Company and its subsidiaries use the term “hedging instruments” to refer to derivative financial instruments.

As mentioned in the section Risk management and financial instruments – Governance of this Note, 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.

Hedging instruments existing as of June 30, 2010 are described below, according to their category, risk, and protection strategy:

Ultrapar Participações S.A. and Subsidiaries Notes to the interim financial statements (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of liabilities in foreign currency - The purpose of these contracts is to offset the effect of the change in exchange rates of a debt in U.S. dollars by converting it into a debt in Reais linked to CDI. As of June 30, 2010, the Company and its subsidiaries had outstanding swap contracts totaling US$ 189.9 million in notional amount and, on average, they had asset position at US$ + 5.11 p.a. and liability position at 117.44 % of CDI.

Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of operations - The purpose of these contracts is to make the exchange rate of the turnover of the subsidiaries of Oleoquímica, Oxiteno S.A. and Oxiteno Nordeste equal to the exchange rate of the cost of their main raw materials. As of June 30, 2010, these swap contracts totaled US$ 71.5 million and, on average, had an asset position at 81.48% of CDI and liability position at US$ + 0.0% p.a.

Hedging against the interest rate fixed in local financing - The purpose of these contracts is to convert the interest rate on financing contracted in Reais from fixed into floating. On June 30, 2010 these swap contracts totaled R$ 1,809.5 million, and on average had an asset position at 11.81% p.a. and liability position at 98.75% of CDI.

Hedging against floating interest rate in foreign currency - The purpose of this contract is to convert the interest rate on the syndicated loan in the principal of US$ 60 million from floating into fixed. As of June 30, 2010, the subsidiary Oxiteno Overseas had a swap contract with a notional amount of US$ 60 million, with an asset position at US$ + LIBOR + 1.25% p.a. and a liability position at US$ + 4.93% p.a.

Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of a firm commitment in foreign currency (RPR) - The purposes of these contracts is to offset the effect of the change in exchange rates on imports of oil denominated in U.S. dollars (US$ 34.3 million) and the financing denominated in foreign currency (US$ 9.8 million). On June 30, 2010 the subsidiary RPR held NDF (non-deliverable forwards) contracts with contracted average future U.S. dollar of R$ 1.8692/US$ and principal, proportional to the Company’s interest of US$ 44.1 million.

The Company and its subsidiaries designate as cash flow hedges some instruments of protection for future cash flows. These instruments of protection whose purpose is to protect the cash flows (i) from the risk of fluctuations in Libor on loans contracted and (ii) the risk of exchange rate changes of subsidiary RPR on future imports of oil denominated in U.S. dollars. On June 30, 2010 these instruments of protection amounted US$ 94.3 million.

The Company and its subsidiaries designate derivative financial instruments used to offset the variations due to changes in interest rates in the market value of financing contracted in Reais as fair value hedge. As of June 30, 2010 these instruments of protection totaled R$ 1,809.5 million.

Fair value of financial instruments

The fair values and the carrying values of the financial instruments, including currency and interest rate hedging instruments, as of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010 are stated below:

Carrying value		Fair value		Carrying value		Fair value
Financial assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	85,347		85,347		80,869		80,869
Currency and interest hedging instruments	(28,346	)	(28,346	)	(36,138	)	(36,138	)

	5,299,304		5,336,918		4,344,675		4,387,385

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

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

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

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

• The fair value of other financial investments and financing was determined using calculation methodologies commonly used for marking-to-market, which consist of calculating future cash flows associated with each instrument adopted and adjusting them to present value at the market rates as of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010. For some cases where there is no active market for the financial instrument, the Company and its subsidiaries used quotes provided by the transaction counterparties.

The interpretation of market information on the choice of calculation methodologies for the fair value requires considerable judgment and estimates to obtain a value deemed appropriate to each situation. Consequently, the estimates presented do not necessary indicate the amounts that may be realized in the current market.

Sensitivity analysis

The Company and its subsidiaries use derivative financial instruments only to hedge against identified risks and in amounts consistent with the risk (limited to 100% of the identified risk). Thus, for purposes of sensitivity analysis of market risks associated with financial instruments, the Company analyzes the hedging instrument and the hedged item together, as shown on the charts below.

For the sensitivity analysis of foreign exchange hedging instruments, management adopted as a likely scenario the Real/U.S. dollar exchange rates at maturity of each swap, projected by U.S dollar futures contracts quoted on BM&FBovespa as of June 30, 2010. As a reference, the exchange rate for the last maturity of foreign exchange hedging instruments is R$ 2.68 in the likely scenario. Scenarios II and III were estimated with a 25% and 50% additional devaluation, respectively, of the Real in the likely scenario.

Based on the balances of the hedging instruments and hedged items as of June 30, 2010, the exchange rates were replaced, and the changes between the new balance in Reais and the balance in Reais as of June 30, 2010 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:

	Risk
Currency swaps receivable in U.S. dollars
(1) U.S. Dollar / Real swaps	Dollar	77,333		182,080		286,826

(6) Petroleum imports / FINIMP	appreciation	(1,293	)	(21,471	)	(41,649	)
(5)+(6)	Net Effect	-		-		-

For the sensitivity analysis of the interest rate hedging instrument in dollar, the Company used the future LIBOR curve (BBA – British Bankers Association) as of June 30, 2010 at maturity of the swap and of the syndicated loan (hedged item), which occurs in 2011, in order to define the likely scenario. Scenarios II and III were estimated with a 25% and 50% deterioration, respectively, in the estimate of the likely LIBOR.

Based on the three interest rate scenarios in dollar (LIBOR), management estimated the values of its loan and of the hedging instrument by calculating the future cash flows associated with each instrument adopted according to the projected scenarios and adjusting them to present value by the rate in effect on June 30, 2010. The result is stated on the table below:

Ultrapar Participações S.A. and Subsidiaries Notes to the interim financial statements (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

	Risk	Scenario I — (likely)	Scenario II		Scenario III

(2) LIBOR Debt	LIBOR	(444	)	(756	)	(1,067	)
(1)+(2)	Net Effect	(5	)	(9	)	(12	)

For sensitivity analysis of interest rate instruments of protection in Reais, the Company used the futures curve of DI x Pre contract of BM&FBovespa as of June 30, 2010 for each swap and each debt (object of protection) maturities, for defining the likely scenario. Scenarios II and III were estimated with a 25% and 50% deterioration, respectively, of pre-fixed rate to that of the likely scenario.

Based on three scenarios of interest rates in Reais, the Company estimated the values of its debt and instruments of protection according to the risk which is being protected (variations in the pre-fixed interest rates in Reais), by projecting them to future value by the contracted rates and bringing them to present value by the interest rates of the estimated scenarios. The result is shown in the table below:

	Risk
Interest rate swap (in R$)
(1) Fixed rate swap - CDI	Increase in	80		(142,455	)	(269,347	)
(2) Fixed rate financing	prefixed rate	(80	)	142,475		269,389

22 Contingencies and commitments (Consolidated)

a. Civil, tax and labor proceedings

On October 7, 2005, the subsidiaries Cia Ultragraz and Bahiana Distribuidora de Gás Ltda. (“Bahiana”) filed for and obtained a preliminary injunction to offset PIS and COFINS credits against other taxes administered by the Federal Revenue Service, notably IRPJ and CSLL. The decision was confirmed by a trial court judgment on May 16, 2008. Under the preliminary injunction obtained, the subsidiaries have been making judicial deposits for these debits in the accumulated amount of R$ 150,297 as of June 30, 2010 (R$ 145,586 as of March 31, 2010) and have recorded a corresponding liability.

Subsidiaries Cia. Ultragaz, Utingás Armazenadora S.A. (“Utingás”), Tequimar, Transultra and Ultracargo - Operações Logísticas e Participações Ltda. (“Ultracargo Participações”) have filed actions with a motion for preliminary injunction seeking full and immediate utilization of the supplementary monetary adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index (IPC)/National Treasury Bonds (BTN) for 1990 (Law 8200/91); the subsidiaries Cia Ultragaz, Utingás and Tequimar opted to include the contingencies related to their processes within the Law 11941/09 amnesty and reclassified the contingencies’ amount to the line of taxes payables. The other subsidiaries maintain a provision of R$ 944 as of June 30, 2010 (R$ 928 as of March 31, 2010) to cover any contingencies if they lose such actions.

The Company and some of its subsidiaries have filed actions with a motion for preliminary injunction against the application of the law restricting offset of tax losses (IRPJ) and negative tax bases (CSLL) determined as of December 31, 1994 to 30% of the income for the year. As a result of the position of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) and based on the opinion of its legal counsel, a provision was recorded for this contingency in the amount of R$ 6,375 as of June 30, 2010 (R$ 6,330 as of March 31, 2010). The subsidiary Ultracargo Participações decided to include an administrative case related to this thesis within the Law 11941/09 amnesty and reclassified part of the provisioned contingency to the line of taxes payable.

The subsidiary IPP has proposed a Declaratory Action questioning the constitutionality of Law No. 9316/96, which denied the CSLL from the IRPJ calculation basis. This action had its application denied at lower court levels, and the subsidiary is awaiting the judgment of the appeal made to the STF. As a result of the decisions issued, the subsidiary has constituted judicial deposits and recorded a provision for contingencies amounting to R$ 12,528 as of June 30, 2010 (R$ 12,528 as of March 31, 2010).

Based on the favorable jurisprudence and the opinion of its legal counsel, the subsidiaries Oxiteno Nordeste and Oxiteno S.A. filed lawsuits to obtain exclusion of export revenues from the tax base for CSLL. The preliminary injunction was granted to Oxiteno Nordeste and the subsidiary is making judicial deposits of the amounts in discussion, as well as provisioning the corresponding contingency in the amount of R$ 938; the subsidiary Oxiteno S.A. awaits judgment of appeal against the sentence which denied the requested preliminary injunction, and is still normally paying the CSLL.

The subsidiaries Oxiteno S.A., Oxiteno Nordeste, Cia. Ultragaz, Transultra, RPR, Tropical Transportes Ipiranga Ltda. (“Tropical”), Empresa Carioca de Produtos Químicos S.A. (“EMCA”) e IPP, filed for a preliminary injunction seeking the deduction of ICMS from the PIS and COFINS tax basis. Oxiteno Nordeste and IPP obtained an injunction and are paying the disputed amounts into judicial deposits, as well as recording the respective provision in the amount of R$ 49,436 as of June 30, 2010 (R$ 46,617 as of March 31, 2010); the others subsidiaries did not obtain a preliminary injunction and are awaiting the judgment of these lawsuits.

The Company and its subsidiaries obtained preliminary injunctions to pay PIS and COFINS contributions without the changes introduced by Law 9718/98 in its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of theses taxes on sources other than revenues. In 2005, the STF decided the question in favor of the taxpayer. Although it has set a precedent, the effect of this decision does not automatically apply to all companies, since they must await judgment of their own legal lawsuits. The Company has subsidiaries whose lawsuits have not yet been decided. If all ongoing lawsuits are finally decided in favor of the subsidiaries, the Company estimates that the total positive effect on income before income tax and social contribution will reach R$ 34,824, net of attorney’s fees.

The Company and its subsidiaries are recording provision for PIS and COFINS calculated on the basis of the interest on capital. The total amount accrued at June 30, 2010 is R$ 22,317 (R$ 22,006 as of March 31, 2010).

The subsidiary IPP has provisions for contingencies related to ICMS related mainly to: (a) ownership of the credit for the difference between the value that was the basis for the retention tax and the amount actually practiced in sales to final consumers, resulting in excessive retention of ICMS by the Refinery, R$ 29,297 (b) delinquency notice for interstate sales of fuel to industrial customers without taxation of ICMS, because the interpretation of Article 2 of the LC 87/96, R$ 26,643, (c) requirement of the reversal of ICMS credits in the State of Minas Gerais, in the interstates, made under Article 33 of the ICMS Convention 66/88, which allowed the maintenance of the credits and was suspended by a preliminary injunction granted by the STF, R$ 33,753, (d) requirement of ICMS-ST on interstate sales from the distributors to final consumers, because there is no retention under the duration of the Conventions ICMS 105/92 and 112/93 R$ 7,794 (e) assessments for deducting of unconditional discounts from the tax basis for ICMS due to tax substitution, in the state of Minas Gerais, R$ 17,193 , (f) delinquency notice resulting from lack of ICMS collection in the States due to errors or lack of delivery of reports in interstate operations, contemplated by Convention ICMS 54/02, that enabled the transfer of ICMS to the state of fuel consumption, R$ 4,129, and (g) requirement for the reversal of ICMS credits on transportation services taken during the freight reimbursement system established by the DNC (currently ANP – National Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuel Agency), R$ 9,043. In the second quarter of 2010, the subsidiary IPP adhered to the amnesties granted by the states of Goiás, Pará, Paraíba, Tocantins and Paraná and partially paid its contingent liabilities.

The main tax claims of the subsidiary IPP that were considered to pose a possible risk of loss, and based on this position, have not been provided for in the interim financial statements, relate to ICMS and related mainly to: (a) assessments for lack of retention of ICMS-ST in the sale of petroleum products to customers who held decisions designed to separate the tax substitution, R$ 68,339, (b) requirement of proportionate reversal of ICMS credits in view of the acquisitions of hydrous ethanol to give higher values than the its sales, because of the transfer of a portion of financial support for agriculturists (FUPA) made by the distributors upon the acquisitions subsequently reimbursed by the DNC, R$ 24,338, (c) requirement of the reversal credit on the difference between the values that formed the basis for withholding tax and the amounts actually charged on sales to final consumers, R$ 40,727, (d) assessments for alleged non-payment of taxes, R$ 22,440, (e) requirement by SEFAZ RJ-reversal of ICMS credits on purchases of basic oils, due to the subsequent output of finished lubricant without taxation, R$ 36,005, (f) delinquency notice on interstate sales of fuel for industrial customer without ICMS, following the interpretation of Article 2 of LC 87/96, R$ 6,221, (g) records of notices issued in Ourinhos / SP for the operations to return the loan of ethanol made with tax deferral, R$ 19,077, (h) assessments in the State of Rio de Janeiro demanding the reversal of ICMS credits generated in interstate shipments made under Article 33 of the ICMS Convention 66/88, which allowed the maintenance of credit and was suspended by a preliminary injunction granted by STF, R$ 14,748, (i) disallowance of ICMS credits taken in the bookkeeping of bills considered inapt, though the understanding of the STJ is in the sense that it is possible to take credit for the buyer even if there is defect in the document of the seller, provided that the remains confirmed that the transaction actually took place, R$15,524, (j) records of notices issued on the grounds of alleged improper calculation of the base of ICMS, since it was not included in the database to calculate the value of the tax itself in interstate operations with petroleum products for final consumers, R$ 11,521, (k) requiring the reversal of ICMS credits on the freight contract to transport fuel, due to the fact that the operation is not taxed as constitutional non-impact, for R$ 11,893 and (l) assessments arising from surplus or shortage of stock, occurred due to differences in temperature or handling the product in which the review believes that there is input or output without a corresponding issue of invoice, R$ 10,488.

In addition, the subsidiary IPP has infraction of the non-approval of set-off of IPI credits appropriate under inputs taxed whose outputs were under the protection of immunity. The non-provisioned amount of contingency, updated as of June 30, 2010, is R$ 55,339 (R$ 54,780 as of March 31, 2010). The subsidiary also has legal lawsuits to guarantee the compensation of overpaid PIS values before the declaration of unconstitutionality of Decrees 2445/88 and 2449/88, and decided to include part of these cases within the Law 11941/09 amnesty, recording the corresponding amount of R$ 29,670 as taxes payable. The non-provisioned amount for the others cases updated as of June 30, 2010 is R$ 49,760 (R$ 50,464 as of March 31, 2010).

In 1990, the Union of Workers in Petrochemical Plants, of which the employees of the subsidiaries Oxiteno Nordeste and EMCA are members, filed an action against the subsidiaries to enforce adjustments established under a collective labor agreement, in lieu of the salary policies actually implemented. At the same time, the Employers’ Association proposed a collective bargaining for interpretation and clarification of Clause Four of the agreement. Based on the opinion of its legal counsel, who reviewed the latest decision of STF in the collective bargaining and the position of the individual action of the subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste, management of the subsidiaries did not deem it necessary to record a provision as of June 30, 2010.

Subsidiary Cia. Ultragaz is facing an administrative case pending before the CADE, for alleged anticompetitive practice in cities in the Triângulo Mineiro region in 2001. Recently, the CADE entered a decision against Cia. Ultragaz imposing a penalty of R$ 23,104. This administrative decision had its execution suspended under court order and the merits are being discussed in court. Based on the above elements and on the opinion of its legal counsel, the subsidiary’s management did not record a provision to this contingency.

Subsidiary Cia. Ultragaz is the defendant in legal proceedings for damages arising from an explosion in 1996 in a shopping mall located in the City of Osasco, State of São Paulo. Such proceedings involve: (i) individual proceedings brought by victims of the explosion seeking compensation for loss of income and pain and suffering (ii) request for compensation for expenses of the shopping mall administrator and its insurer; and (iii) class action seeking economic and non-economic damages for all victims injured and dead. The subsidiary believes that it produced evidence that the defective gas pipelines in the shopping mall caused the accident, and Ultragaz’s local LPG storage facilities did not contribute to the explosion. Out of the 64 actions decided to date, 63 were favorable, of which 29 are already shelved; only 1 was adverse and the subsidiary was sentenced to pay R$ 17. There is only 1 action yet to be decided. The subsidiary has insurance coverage for these legal proceedings, and the value not insured is R$ 19,554. The Company did not record any provision for this value because it considers the chances of realization of this contingency as essentially remote.

Subsidiary IPP has provisions for settlement of terms of contracts with customers and ex-service providers, as well as environmental issues, in the amount of R$ 31,656 as of June 30, 2010 (R$ 31,262 as of March 31, 2010).

The Company and its subsidiaries have other pending administrative and legal proceedings, which were estimated by their legal counsel as possible and/or remote risk, and the related potential losses were not provided for by the Company and its subsidiaries based on these opinions. The Company and its subsidiaries also have litigations for recovery of taxes and contributions, which were not recorded in the interim financial statements due to their contingent nature.

The Company and its subsidiaries decided to include within the amnesty introduced by Law 11941/09 some of their debts before the Federal Revenue Service, General Attorney of the National Treasury and Social Security with the benefits of reduction of fines, interest and legal charges set in this Law, and recorded in its interim financial information for March 31, 2010 an expense of R$ 15,264, net of taxes.

b. 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 set a minimum value for cargo movement, as shown below:

Port	Minimun moviment in tons per year	Maturity
Aratu	100,000	2016
Aratu	900,000	2022
Suape	250,000	2027
Suape	400,000	2029

Ultrapar Participações S.A. and Subsidiaries Notes to the interim financial statements (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

If the annual movement is less than the minimum required, then the subsidiary will have to pay the difference between the actual movement and the minimum required by the agreements, using the port rates in effect at the date established for payment. As of June 30, 2010, such charges were R$ 5.79 and R$ 1.38 per ton for Aratu and Suape, respectively. The subsidiary has met the minimum cargo movement requirements since the beginning of the agreements.

Subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste has a supply agreement with Braskem S.A. setting a minimum value for quarterly consumption of ethylene and establishing conditions for the supply of ethylene until 2021. The minimum purchase commitment and the actual demand accumulated to June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, expressed in tons of ethylene, are shown below. In case of breach of the minimum purchase commitment, the subsidiary agrees to pay a penalty of 40% of the current ethylene price, to the extent of the shortfall. The provision of minimum purchase commitment is under renegotiation with Braskem, including the minimum purchase commitment related to 2009.

2010		2009	2010	2009
In tons of ethylene	87,921	(*)	94,219	94,411	72,543

(*) Adjusted for the maintenance stoppage carried out by Braskem in the period.

In August 2008, the subsidiary Oxiteno S.A signed an Ethylene Supply Agreement with Quattor Química 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 19,800 tons of ethylene semiannually. In case of breach, the subsidiary agrees to pay a penalty of 30% of the current ethylene price, to the extent of the shortfall.

c. Insurance coverage in subsidiaries

The Company maintains appropriate insurance policies to cover several risks to which it is exposed, including asset insurance against losses caused by fire, lightning, explosion of any kind, gale, aircraft crash, and electric damage, and other risks, covering the bases and other branches of all subsidiaries, except RPR, which maintains its own insurance. The maximum compensation value, including loss of profits, based on the risk analysis of maximum loss possible at a certain site is US$ 1,050 million.

The General Responsibility 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 sales of products and services.

Ultrapar Participações S.A. and Subsidiaries Notes to the interim financial statements (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

Group Life and Personal Accident, Health, National and International Transportation and All Risks insurance policies are also maintained.

The coverages and limits of the insurance policies maintained are based on a careful study of risks and losses conducted by local insurance advisors, and 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. The risk assumptions adopted, given their nature, are not part of the scope of a review on interim financial information, and consequently haven’t been reviewed by our independent accountants.

d. Operating lease contracts

The subsidiaries IPP and Serma have operating lease contracts for the use of IT equipment.

These contracts have terms of 36 months. The subsidiaries have the option to purchase the assets at a price equal to the fair market price on the date of option, and management does not intend to exercise such option.

The future disbursements (installments), assumed under these contracts, total approximately:

Up to 1 year	752	554
More than 1 year	776	553
	1,528	1,107

The total payments of operating lease recognized as expense for the quarter was R$ 171 (R$ 127 as of June 30, 2009).

23 Employee benefits and private pension plan (Consolidated)

a. ULTRAPREV- Associação de Previdência Complementar

The Company and its subsidiaries offer a defined-contribution pension plan to its employees, which is managed by Ultraprev - Associação de Previdência Complementar. Under the plan, the basic contribution of each participating employee is calculated by multiplying a percentage ranging from 0% to 11%, which is annually defined by the participant based on his/her salary. The sponsor companies match the amount of the basic contribution paid by the participant. As the participants retire, they choose to receive monthly either: (i) a percentage, ranging from 0.5% to 1.0%, of the fund accumulated for the participant with Ultraprev; or (ii) a fixed monthly amount that will exhaust the fund accumulated for the participant within a period ranging from 5 to 25 years. Thus, the Company and its subsidiaries do not assume responsibility for guaranteeing amounts and periods of pension benefits. As of June 30, 2010, the Company and its subsidiaries contributed R$ 6,414 (R$ 5,107 as of June 30, 2009) to Ultraprev, which amount is recorded as expense in the income statement for the year. The total number of employees participating in the plan as of June 30, 2010 was 7,189 active participants and 45 retired participants. In addition, Ultraprev had 30 former employees receiving benefits under the previous plan whose reserves are fully constituted.

b. Post-employment benefits

Ipiranga and RPR recognized a provision for post-employment benefits mainly related to seniority bonus, payment of Severance Pay Fund, and health and life insurance plan for eligible retirees.

The net liabilities for such benefits recorded as of June 30, 2010 are R$ 102,040 (R$ 102,040 as of March 31, 2010), of which R$ 11,955 (R$ 11,955 as of March 31, 2010) are recorded as current liabilities and R$ 90,085 (R$ 90,085 as of March 31, 2010) as long-term liabilities.

The amounts related to such benefits were determined based on a valuation conducted by an independent actuary and are recorded in the interim financial statements in accordance with Resolution CVM 371/2000.

Effect of the divestment – Ultracargo’s road transportation, in-house logistics and solid bulk storage

On July 1 st , 2010, Ultrapar concluded the sale of Ultracargo’s in-house logistics, solid bulk storage and road transportation businesses, with the transfer of the shares of AGT – Armazéns Gerais e Transporte Ltda. and Petrolog Serviços e Armazéns Gerais Ltda. to Aqces Logística Internacional Ltda. and the receipt of R$ 74 million, in addition to the R$ 8 million deposit received upon the announcement of the transaction on March 31 st , 2010.

(2) Performance Analysis:

Net Sales and Services : Ultrapar’s consolidated net sales and services amounted to R$ 10,377 million in 2Q10, up 8% over 2Q09, as a consequence of the growth in sales in Ipiranga, Ultragaz and Oxiteno. Compared with 1Q10, Ultrapar’s net sales and services increased by 4% due to seasonality between the periods. In the first half of 2010, Ultrapar's net sales and services amounted to R$ 20,318 million, up 27% compared with the first half of 2009, mainly as a consequence of the consolidation of Texaco's net sales and services from 2Q09 onwards.

Ultragaz: In 2Q10, Ultragaz’s sales volume amounted to 407 thousand tons, up 2% over 2Q09. In the bottled segment, Ultragaz sales volume remained stable compared with 2Q09. In the bulk segment, sales volume grew 4% due to the higher level of economic activity and a recovery in the industrial activity. Compared with 1Q10, Ultragaz’s sales volume increased by 10%, as a result of seasonality between periods. For the first half of 2010, Ultragaz’s sales volume totals 778 thousand tons in sales volume, 2% growth compared with 1H09. Ultragaz’s net sales and services amounted to R$ 922 million in 2Q10, up 7% over 2Q09, as a result of higher sales volume, an increase in the cost of LPG used in the bulk segment from January 2010 onwards and commercial initiatives and operational efficiency programs implemented. Compared with 1Q10, net sales and services increased by 10%, in line with the sales volume progression. For 1H10, Ultragaz’s net sales and services totaled R$ 1,764 million, up 8% from 1H09.

Ipiranga: Ipiranga’s sales volume totaled 4,985 thousand cubic meters in 2Q10, 8% higher than that in 2Q09. Sales volume of fuels for light vehicles grew by 4%, mainly as a consequence of the increase in the light vehicle fleet during the last 12 months. Diesel volume grew by 11% due to the higher level of economic activity in 2Q10. Compared with 1Q10, sales volume increased by 8% as a result of seasonality between quarters. In 1H10, Ipiranga’s sales volume totals 9,585 thousand cubic meters, up 29% over 1H09, mainly due to the consolidation of Texaco’s volume from 2Q09 onwards. Ipiranga’s net sales and services amounted to R$ 8,838 million in 2Q10, up 8% over 2Q09, in line with sales volume variation. Compared with 1Q10, Ipiranga’s net sales and services revenues grew by 3% as a consequence of the increase in sales volume, partially offset by the lower average price derived from (i) a decrease in the share of gasoline in the product mix in 2Q10 and (ii) the reduction in ethanol cost in 2Q10, due to the increased availability of the product compared with 1Q10. In 1H10, Ipiranga's net sales and services amounted to R$ 17,429 million, a 31% increase compared with 1H09, mainly as a consequence of the consolidation of Texaco's net sales and services from 2Q09 onwards.

Oxiteno: Oxiteno’s sales volume totaled 176 thousand tons, up 10% (16 thousand tons) over 2Q09, highlighting the 15% increase in sales volume of specialty chemicals, on the back of higher level of economic activity compared with 2Q09 and enabled by the expansions in the production capacity. In the Brazilian market, sales volume increased by 18% (19 thousand tons), with positive progression in all markets, notably in specialty chemicals sold to the cosmetics, agrochemicals and coatings industries. Sales volume outside Brazil decreased by 7% (4 thousand tons) due to higher spot sales of glycols in 2Q09. Compared with 1Q10, sales volume increased by 7% (12 thousand tons) as a result of seasonality between quarters. Oxiteno’s sales volume for 1H10 totals 339 thousand tons, up 20% over 1H09. Oxiteno’s net sales and services totaled R$ 549 million in 2Q10, up 16% over 2Q09, despite the 14% stronger Real, as a consequence of the recovery in average dollar prices and a 10% growth in sales volume.

Net sales and services in 1H10 totaled R$ 1,021 million, up 9% from 1H09.

Ultracargo: In 2Q10, Ultracargo reported a 14% increase in average effective storage compared with 2Q09, due to the consolidation of the terminal acquired in Suape in December 2009 and higher volume of operations in Aratu terminal, on the back of the capacity expansion completed, partially offset by a reduction in the handling of ethanol. In the transportation segment, total kilometrage travelled in 2Q10 declined by 13% compared with 2Q09, especially due to Ultracargo’s decision to reduce its presence in certain segments during 2009. Compared with 1Q10, Ultracargo’s average effective storage was 4% higher and the total kilometrage travelled increased by 2%. In 1H10, Ultracargo accumulates an 18% increase in the average effective storage of its terminals and a 16% decrease in the total kilometrage travelled.

In the first half of 2010, Ultrapar's cost of goods sold amounted to R$ 18,771 million, a 27% increase compared with the first half of 2009, mainly as a consequence of the consolidation of Texaco's cost of goods sold from 2Q09 onwards.

Ultragaz: Ultragaz’s EBITDA amounted to R$ 83 million in 2Q10, up 13% over 2Q09, especially due to a recovery in margins, to which the operational efficiency programs implemented contributed, and an improvement in the bulk segment performance, partially offset by an increase in expenses related to promotional and sales campaigns and higher variable compensation. Compared with 1Q10, Ultragaz’s EBITDA increased by 18%, mainly as a consequence of a seasonally higher volume. For 1H10, Ultragaz’s EBITDA reached R$ 154 million, up 22% from 1H09.
