A. Market Overview

According to data from UNICA, the 2010/11 crop of the Center -South region of Brazil (CS) was already almost concluded at the end of December 2010, totaling 555.0 million tons of sugar, 2.4% higher than the same period of the previous crop. The production mix maximized the sugar production, including the entry into operation of about 10 new sugar plants. This product accounted for 44.79% of processed cane, compared to 42.59% of the previous crop, resulting in the production of 33.5 million tons of sugar and 25.3 billion of liters of ethanol, 16.8% and 6 71% higher, respectively, the previous crop. This production increase was mainly due to higher amount of TSR (total sugar recoverable) per ton of cane, which totaled 141.3 kg / ton, compared to 130.2 kg / ton in 2009/10.

Despite the above-mentioned significant production growth, the 2010/11 crop has suffered the impacts of the drought in the period that affected the CS and showed a lower yield per hectare, which reduced the availability of cane. A drop of nearly 7.0% on UNICA’ s first harvest estimate (595.9 million tons of cane), partially offset by a 1.9% higher TSR and the mix of sugar above expected, resulted in a production of 0.6 million tons of sugar and 2.1 billion liters of ethanol lower than expected.

The sugar production growth in the CS was accompanied by the strong pace of exports. In the period between April and December 2010, 23.5 million tons of sugar were exported by Brazil, a volume 19.9% higher than the previous year's harvest. Raw sugar accounted for 75.2% of total exports, mainly intended to UAE, Russia, Malaysia and India. White sugar exports totaled 5.8 million tons, mainly to Yemen, Ghana, Mauritania and Ivory Coast.
 
 
The high sugar prices in international markets reflected the reversal of the global production and consumption balance for the 2009/10 crop. Earlier this year, market estimates foresaw a surplus of more than 5 million tons. Due to lower production in countries like Brazil, Russia, Australia and others, new estimates range from an equilibrated supply and demand to a deficit of 3 million tons for the 2010/11 crop.

In India, the current crop already presented a production 15% higher than the same period last year, with 8.5 million tons of sugar, indicating that the total output should be close to market consensus of 25.0 million tons. Due to the evolution of this crop and high food prices, the

government of that country adopted a more cautious export policy, postponing the decision to issue the licenses (OGLS).

In Australia, the 2010/11 harvest was significantly affected by the rains, with floods hitting the main producing regions. As a result, almost 20.0% of the cane was left for the next harvest (called "cana bisada") and difficulties were faced in the application of fertilizers and pest control, which should impact the productivity of the next crop.

In the EU, due to news on a shortage of sugar in retail and aiming to contain inflation of agricultural products prices, the European Commission signaled that it may approve additional “out-of-quota" sugar imports, which indicates that this year's volume available for exports will be significantly below the previous year, when the exports were 500,000 tons above the volume allowed by the WTO.

In China, during the quarter ended December, the local government held several auctions to sell the product in the domestic market and contain prices in the local market, which was also affected by lower product availability. Consequently, China has become one of the main Brazilian destinations, importing about 1 million tons.

In Russia, traditionally Brazil's main sugar importer, the local government started discussions on the reduction of the import tax due to the reduced inventory levels.

As a result of this scenario, the raw sugar price strongly recovered in the 3Q’11, with an average of ¢US$29.07/lb, 44.4% above the 2Q’11 and 22.8% above the average of the 3Q’10, reaching ¢US$32.12/lb at the end of December. The refined sugar in international market had an average price of US$731.08/ton in the period, which represents a 19.1% increase in comparison with the 3Q’10 and 25.7% above the 2Q’11.

In the 3Q’11, the average price of the Brazilian real in relation to the US dollar was R$ 1.70/US$, 3.0% below the average of the previous quarter and 2.4% lower than the 3Q’10. The exchange rate at the end of the period was R$1.67/US$, compared with R$1.69/US$ in September 2010 and R$1.74/US$ in December 2009.

In the domestic market, the average refined sugar price for the 3Q’11 (based on data of the Luiz de Queiroz School of Agriculture - ESALQ) was R$74.2 per 50Kg bag, which is equivalent to ¢US$39.67/lb, 54.7% higher than the previous quarter and 28.7% above the 3Q’10, mainly due to the crop shortfall in Brazil.
 
 
 
3 of 31

 
 
 
 
In the ethanol domestic ethanol market, the anhydrous and hydrous ethanol prices strongly recovered due to the start of the interharvest season and lower carryover stocks, due to (i) crop shortfall in Brazil, (ii) maximization of sugar production and (iii) increased demand for anhydrous and hydrous ethanol due to growing demand, reflecting the increased vehicle fleet. The average hydrous ethanol price (ESALQ’s base) was R $ 1,015.2 / cbm in the 3Q’11, 22.9% higher than the previous quarter and 6.9% above the 3Q’10. The average anhydrous ethanol price was R $ 1,187.1 / cbm, representing an increase of 23.1% compared to the 2Q’11 and 8.5% compared to the same quarter of last year.

The average parity (weighted by the fleet) of the hydrous ethanol price compared to gasoline in Brazil, according to the National Petroleum Agency (ANP), was approximately 72.5% at the end of the 3Q11, leaving only four states within the 70% parity, which together represent approximately 41.0% of the country's flex-fuel fleet.

Fuel

According to ANP, the volume of diesel sold in October and November 2010 (December data not yet available) was 6.9% higher than the same period of last year, reaching 8.7 billion liters. With higher prices throughout 2010, hydrous ethanol had unfavorable parity in relation to gasoline in many states, hence the volume of product sold decreased by 5.2%, totaling 2.6 billion liters. In contrast, the volume sold of gasoline C (with a blend of 25% anhydrous ethanol) rose by 12.7%, reaching 3.7 billion liters in that period.

This year’s crop was affected by severe drought which impacted the Center-South region of Brazil, reducing the availability of sugarcane. Consequently, the mills ended their harvest in the beginning of December with a total crushed volume of 11.3 million tons of sugarcane in the quarter, 20.1% lower than the 3Q’10. During this quarter the own cane represented 53.9% of total processed cane, with a mechanization rate of 78.1%.

The 11.9 kg /ton increase in the ATR, compared with the same quarter of last year, was insufficient to offset the smaller amount of cane processed. Therefore, this quarter sugar and ethanol production was 16.0% and 17.0%, respectively lower than that of the 3Q’10. The good sugar prices, especially in the domestic market, allowed a strategy to prioritize the production of white sugar with higher added value, which reached 324 thousand tons or an increase of 50 thousand tons in relation to the 3Q’10.

Cosan’s net revenue amounted to R$4.7 billion in the 3Q11, compared with R$3.8 billion in the same quarter of the previous year. This increase of 24.7% reflects the growth in all business units through the increase in the production capacity and volume sold and services provided. At CAA, the growth was due to (i) the increase in the use of the installed capacity of two greenfield projects (Jataí and Caarapó) and (ii) the entry into operation of other co-generation projects which, aligned with the best sugar and ethanol prices, increased CAA’s revenues by 46.8%, changing to R$1.68 billion. CCL’s net revenues increased by 14.3%, totaling R$3.1 billion, mainly due to a 18.4% increase in diesel revenues, a 44.1% increase in lubricants revenues and 10.1% increase in gasoline revenues. At Rumo, the beginning of transport operations, which is primarily based on the partnership agreement with ALL – America Latina Logística S.A., was the main responsible for the 218.1% increase in its net revenues, which totaled R$113.7 million, of which R$80.9 million resulted from services and transport and R$32.7 million from loading services.

Sugar Sales - CAA

Sugar sales in the quarter totaled R $ 931.9 million, an increase of 26.7% over the same quarter last year. The main effects that contributed to the increase of R $ 196.3 million were:

 
Þ
Increase of R $ 131.8 million from the higher sales volume, 17.9% above the same quarter of last year. Domestic sales increased 4.4%, totaling 295.1 thousand tons, while exports amounted to 751.0 thousand tons, an increase of 24.2%;

 
Þ
Increase of R $ 55.0 million due to prices 7.4% higher, while domestic prices were 17.5% higher, prices in international markets increased of only 4.2% compared with the same period of last year due to the hedge accounting effects.
 
 
Þ
In contrast, the domestic market accounted for 28.2% of sales in comparison with 31.9% in the 3Q10. This mix reduction offset part of the gains of higher volumes and prices

Ethanol Sales - CAA

Ethanol revenues in the 3Q11 totaled R$647.7 million, showing a strong increase of 91.5% compared to the 3Q10. It is important to stress the main factors that increased the revenues by R$ 309.5 million:

 
Þ
Increase of R$ 219.7 million due to higher sales volume, 65.0% higher than the 3Q10, resulting from the increase of 115.8% in volume sold in the domestic market, partially offset by a decrease of 31.6% in exports. It is worth mentioning that the sales volume in 3Q11 was impacted:

 
o
In the domestic market, by the commercial decision to take the high prices of the product at the end of the harvest and reduce the risk of carrying a high inventory to sell it during the offseason; and

 
o
In international markets, the export opportunity windows remain closed and thus the sales volume just follows the previously established trade agreements. Moreover, competition from ethanol produced in the U.S. has caused major difficulties for the sale of Brazilian ethanol in the European market.

 
Þ
the increment of R$54.3 million from 3.7% higher prices in the domestic market and 47.6% higher in international markets;

 
Þ
In addition, 3Q11 revenues increased by R$ 4.7 million due to the sales mix more focused on the domestic market, which showed slightly higher prices and represented 85.6% of the sales for the period, compared to 65.5% in the 3Q10.
 
 
 
Throughout this year, the Company opted to keep a steady pace for their ethanol sales as evidenced in previous quarters.
 
 
 
10 of 31

 
 
 
The level of inventories in the 3Q11 showed a decrease of 12.6% compared to the 3Q10, even with production 20.5% higher than last year. This level is mainly a result of an increase of 65.0% in sales volume compared to the same quarter of last year.

Cogeneration of Energy - CAA

The energy revenues totaled R$ 53.7 million through the sale of R$ 2.7 million in steam and 380,8 thousand MWh of energy at an average price of R$134.0 / MWh. The growth of 114.3% in the sales volume results from the startup of new cogeneration units (totaling 10 units this year, compared to 6 last year) and the ramp-up of the others.
 
 
Other Products and Services - CAA

CAA’s revenues from other products and services decreased by 5.9%, or R$3.1 million compared to the 3Q10, mainly due to: (i) the decrease in retail sales of DaBarra Alimentos products, such as breakfast foods, as a result of a strategic repositioning of Cosan Alimentos, and (ii) reduction in diesel sales mainly to service providers in the agriculture area, due to increased purchase of agricultural machinery and equipment which increased the Company's mechanization level.
 

 
 
11 of 31

 
 
 
Rumo

Rumo’s net revenues of R$ 113.7 million in the 3Q11 was 218.1% higher than the 3Q10, reflecting the startup of transport operations in January 2010, which accounted for revenues of R$80.9 million. By reviewing Rumo’s operations separately, one can note a decrease of 8.4% in the revenues from loading services, of R$ 32.7 million, due to a reduction of 25.7% in the volume loaded, partially offset by the increase of 23.3% in the average price of this service.

The lower volume in this quarter reflected the crop shortfall, which reduced the availability of sugar to be exported. Of the total sugar loaded by Rumo in this quarter, CAA represented 35.0% or 589 thousand tons in the period. On the other hand, the increase of the average price of the port services was due to renegotiation of existing commercial contracts and the mix of the loading services with higher participation of white sugar (with margin and prices higher), from 6.5% on 3Q’10 to 10% on 3Q’11.

As a result of higher value added to the shipped product, mainly by the increase in transport operations, revenues per ton loaded this quarter was 4.3 times higher than in the 3Q10.

Fuel Sales - CCL

CCL’s net revenues amounted to R$3.1 billion in the 3Q11, 14.3% higher to that of the same quarter of the previous year, and the fuel revenues increased 13.0%, reaching R$2.7 billion. The main factors that affected the fuel revenues in this quarter were:

 
Þ
Increase of 16.4% in the volume of diesel sold in comparison with the 3Q10. This increase is due to the following factors:

 
o
Increase of 6.9% in the diesel national consumption, according to ANP, in October and November 2010 (December data are not yet available) due to an increase in the industrial customers and transport demand in view of the recovery of the economic activity in Brazil.

 
o
Market share gains in retail, mainly in the manufacturing industry.

 
Þ
Increase of 8.7% in the gasoline C sales volume in relation to the 3Q10 due to an increase in the percentage of flex fuel car users, who are now opting for this fuel in substitution for the hydrated ethanol;

 
Þ
Increase in the average unit prices of ethanol, gasoline and diesel and higher diesel market share in the sales mix, whose prices are higher than the ethanol.

Lubricant Sales - CCL

The 44.1% increase in lubricant revenues, which totaled R$ 207.4 million in the quarter, results from the mix with a higher share of premium products with higher added value and the strong sales volume of 40.8 million liters due to the increase of the national consumption and market share gains, which was 11,1% on the accumulated data from April /09 to December/09 and increased to 13,5% on the same period of 2010 . It should be noted that, compared to the 2Q11, the lubricant sales volume decreased 4.1% due to the typical year-end seasonality, while the volume sold by the Sindicom associated companies decreased by approximately 9.0 %.


 
 
CCL’s inventories increased by 15.9%, aligned with the growth in the fuel sales volume. Analysing the inventory in days of sales, no significant change was found, remaining at about 9 days.

Cost of Goods Sold


Cost of Products Sold totaled R$4.2 billion, in comparison with R$3.3 billion in the same quarter of the previous year. At CAA, the increase of 54.3%, or R$482.0 million, results mainly from the higher volume sold, increase in the activity that purchase the sugar for sale in the domestic market and increase in depreciation. At Rumo, the startup of transport activities was the main responsible for the 147.7% increase in the cost of the products sold. At CCL, the 14.2% in the cost of products sold, which amounted to R$2,863.3 million, is due mainly to the higher volume sold, higher diesel and gasoline share in the mix of products sold, in addition to the increase in the acquisition cost of ethanol.

* the cash-cost of sugar and ethanol does not include depreciation and amortization of planted areas, agricultural depreciation (machinery and equipment), industrial depreciation and inter-harvest maintenance.

CAA

Since the beginning of this fiscal year we have presented the unit cost of sugar and ethanol excluding amortization and depreciation (cost-cash) effects aiming to better analyze their behavior over the quarters.

The depreciation and amortization effects on the unit costs reflected the investments made in the sugar cane planting, maintenance of our industrial units, harvest mechanization, the greenfield projects (Jataí and Caarapó), which entered into operation at the end of the former harvest, and the improvement of safety and sustainability of our operations.

Cost of products sold and services provided by CAA totaled R$1.4 billion, representing an increase of 54.3% or R$ 482.0 million compared to the same period of last year. The main factors behind this increase are:

 
Þ
higher volume of sugar and ethanol sold, which was responsible for the increase of R$293.5 million,

 
Þ
R$ 152.2 million for sugar origination, characterized by the purchase of raw material for refining and finished product and subsequent sale and distribution in domestic market.

 
Þ
Increase of approximately R$88.8 million due to an increase in the ATR according to Consecana formula (which defines suppliers’ remuneration and land lease), which changed from R$0.3524/kg of ATR to R$0.3766/kg of ATR. It is worth highlight that the
 
 
 
15 of 31

 
 
 
ATR price increase impact is not only on the sugar cane harvested this quarter but on all previous quarters of this fiscal year, therefore with negative effects on the unit cost of this quarter;

 
Þ
the increase of R$32 million in depreciation due to the investments made over the years

 
Þ
R$16.6 million due to take-or-pay contracts with service providers due to crop shortfall;

 
Þ
All these factors were partially offset by the increase of the amount of ATR, which increased from 126.6kg / ton of cane to 138.5kg / ton due to more appropriate climatic conditions, improving the cost at R$82.9 million in the 3Q11.
 
Rumo

The cost of products sold by Rumo in the 3Q11 was R$75.3 million and includes costs of port loading, transshipment, storage services and contracting of rail and road freights. In addition, the participation of the loading of the white sugar (bagged) increased over the total volume of sugar loaded, with higher costs and margin, reflecting an increase of Rumo´s COGS.

CCL

The cost of products sold by CCL increased by 14.2% compared to the 3Q10. Excluding the volume factor the unit cost of R$1,750m3 in the 3Q11 was 4.0% higher than the same quarter of the previous year. This results from the following factors:

 
Þ
Cost of ethanol 7.6% higher than the 3Q10;

 
Þ
Sales mix with higher share of gasoline and diesel, which have unit costs higher than the ethanol;

 
Þ
Increase in the unit cost of lubricants, however offset by the increase in revenues resulting from the sales mix with more share of products with higher added value.


Gross Profit
With these results, the 3Q11 presented gross profit of R $ 577.9 million, 25.6% higher than the same period of the previous year, a margin of 12.2%. CAA has contributed with gross profits of R$313.9 million, a gross cash margin of 26.9% for ethanol and 33.9% for sugar, also benefited by the higher share of cogeneration results. Rumo, in turn, contributed with gross profits of R$38.3 million, with consolidated margin of 33.7%. At CCL, the gross margin remained constant at 7.2% but with a 4.7% increase in gross margin in Reais per thousand liters, which changed from R$129/thousand liters to R$135/thousand liters, benefited mainly by the lubricants business and the mix of products with a higher share of diesel and gasoline.

CAA

CAA’s selling expenses in the 3Q11 had a significant increase of 41.5%, reaching R$153.4 million, mainly due to the increase in the sugar sales volume both in the domestic and international markets. In addition, during this quarter the ethanol sales to domestic market under CIF modality increased, which includes logistics costs.

Rumo

Due to the nature of its business, Rumo does not have selling expenses.

CCL

CCL’s selling expenses increased by 5.7% or R$6.1 million, changing from R$113.4 million, mainly due to the increase in the volume sold. Accordingly, by analyzing the selling expenses in unit terms we can note a decrease of 3.7%, changing from R$72.0/m3 in the 3Q10 to R$69.3/ m3 in the 3Q11, benefited by the higher dilution of fixed costs as a result of a 9.8% increase in the volume sold.

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses of R$132 million represented an increase of 12% in relation to the amount of R$117.9 million for the 3Q10. This increase refers to CAA and Rumo and reflects the efforts and investments, most of them not recurring, that have been made to improve the controls and management, but mainly aiming at a better operating efficiency for the time the

General and administrative expenses of R$101.8 million in the 3Q11 increased by 16.6% when compared to the same quarter of last year. This increase of R$14.5 million is due mainly to nonrecurring expenses relating to the Shell Joint Venture process and costs for the areas of Safety, Environment and Sustainability.

Rumo

Rumo’s general and administrative expenses totaled R$5.8 million in the 3Q11, presenting an increase of 37.3%, as already expected due to the hiring of new executives. This results from the hiring of:

 
Þ
New executives to strength the Company’s management team and middle management;

 
Þ
Consulting to review and renegotiate contracts of Rumo’s suppliers;

 
Þ
Assistance to start and monitor the transport operations.
 
CCL

CCL’s general and administrative expenses totaled R$24.4 million in the 3Q11, representing a decrease of 7.6%. It is worth noting that due to the phase of investments in improvements for the Company, CCL’s expenses are still being negatively impacted by nonrecurring expenses of approximately R$ 5.0 million related to adjustments to the transition to CAN and expenses with the transition team for the beginning of the Joint Venture with Shell.

EBITDA
With these results, Cosan reached EBITDA of R$410.5 million in the 3Q11, 16.9% lower than the EBITDA of the 3Q10, of R$490.4 million. Of this total CAA accounted for R$274.8 million, 33.9% lower than its EBITDA for the 3Q10. CCL accounted for R$98.1 million and Rumo R$37.7 million.

Depreciation and amortization of R$223.6 million, 62.7% higher than those recorded in the 3Q10 (R$137.4 million), result from (i) higher sales volume in the period and (ii) the strong investment plan that is being implemented with the goal of increasing efficiencies of production through mechanization, cogeneration and industrial improvements, in addition to investments to expand sugar production capacity and milling capacity at new units (greenfields). Thus, CAA reported EBITDA of R$ 274.8 million, with a margin of 16.3%.

Rumo

Benefited by the entry into operation of the transportation activities, Rumo’s EBITDA in the 3Q11 reached R$37.7 million, with a margin of 33.2%, amount 6.4 times higher than in that of the 3Q10. Reflecting its investment program, depreciation and amortization showed an increase of 58.4%, reaching R$5.5 million in the period.

CCL

In the quarter, CCL had an EBITDA of R$98.1 million, with a margin of R$59.9 per thousand liters, or 3.2% of the net revenues, reflecting improved product mix of both fuel and lubricants. It is noteworthy that this EBITDA was negatively impacted by extraordinary expenses related to adjustments for the transition to CAN and the transition period for Shell Joint Venture, totaling R$5.0 million, partially offset by other nonrecurring revenues of R$4.2 million, related mostly to the sale of non-operating assets.

The depreciation and amortization of CCL increased by 15.6% compared to the 3Q10, to R$10.2 million, mainly due to (i) the start of the amortization of certain intangible assets, and (ii) amortization of investments in maintenance and repairs of gas stations, aimed at improving their images, and terminal expansion and reforms, such investments are higher than on previous years.

Financial Result

The Company reported net financial expense in the 3Q11 of R$97.8 million compared with a net financial expenses of R$78.3 million in the same quarter of the previous year.

Debt charges expenses increased 13.9% mainly due to higher average indebtedness of the Company, when compared with the same period of last year.

The net effect of exchange rate changes showed a gain of R$59.3 million in the 3Q11 compared to R$50.1 million in the 3Q10. The positive effect of the exchange variation is due to the impacts on assets and liabilities denominated in US dollars by the appreciation of local currency (real) against the US currency (dollar), which has appreciated by 1.7% this quarter compared with an appreciation of 2.1% in the same quarter of last year.

The result of derivatives in the quarter was negative at R$17.0 million compared with a positive result of R$18.0 million in the same quarter of last year, already net of the hedge accounting impacts discussed below.

The result of foreign exchange derivatives was positive in R$14.8 million in this quarter compared to R$46.9 million in the 3Q’10 and reflects the impact on the Company's short position, given its export profile, seeking coverage for its future sales denominated in US dollars in a scenario where the exchange rate depreciated 1.7% this quarter compared to 2.1% in the 3Q10.

In the context of commodity derivatives, mainly sugar, the Company had a negative effect of R$31.8 million in the 3Q11, net of the hedge accounting effects, compared with losses of R$28.9 million in the same quarter of last year due to the Company’s short position in sugar derivatives. It is worth noting that in the 3Q10 the Company did not apply the hedge accounting method.

The position of sugar volumes and prices set forth based on trading or financial instruments as of December 31, 2010, as well as foreign exchange derivative contracts aiming to hedge the Company’s future cash flows are summarized as follows:

Gross debt charges totaled R$126.8 million, an increase of 13.9% compared with the 3Q10, resulting from the higher average indebtedness balance of the Company mainly due to the ongoing projects of investment both in CAA and Rumo, which demanded new credit facilities.

Impacts of Hedge Accounting

As of April 1, 2010, the Company adopted the cash flow hedge accounting method for certain derivative financial instruments designated to cover risks of price and exchange variations on revenues from sugar exports. In the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded a deferral (reclassification between financial income (expenses) and the reserve account in the shareholders’ equity) of R$277.5 million of net losses on such derivatives. In the 3Q11 there was the allocation of loss on the variation of fair value of derivatives in the amount of R$84.9 million,

Cosan closed the 3Q11 with net profits of R$27.9 million, compared with net profits of R$167.1 million in the 3Q10. The result of the 3Q11 was favored by higher volumes of CAA and CCL, better prices, mainly of sugar and ethanol, and the ramp-up of the transportation activities of Rumo and the cogeneration projects. However, this quarter was negatively impacted by the effects of the increase in the costs of CAA, mainly resulting from the effects of the shortfall and the cumulative effects of the ATR prices, in addition to more offer of sugar for resale with lower margins. Net profits for the same quarter of last year (3Q10) were also favored by the nonrecurring effect on Other operating revenues from the net gain obtained from the adhesion to the Tax Debt Installment Payment Program (REFIS IV).

In the 3Q11 the Company maintained the high level of investments in planting and interharvest maintenance, which showed an increase of 51.2% and 52.1%, respectively, when compared with the same period of last year, totaling R$128.6 million. In the first three quarters of this year 56.6 thousand hectares were planted, an increase of 47% compared to 38.5 thousand hectares in the same period of last year. With regard to soil tillage in areas not yet planted the growth was also relevant, being approximately 43% higher compared to the same period of last year.

Investments in Safety, Health and Environment (SSMA) were significant in the 3Q11, an increase of 297.5% compared to the same quarter of the previous year. Of the total investment amount in the year, approximately 93% was allocated to investments in projects of vignasse (a liquid byproduct resulting from the processing of ethanol and reused as fertilizer), aiming to reduce its exposure from the mill to the agriculture areas.

Investments in agricultural mechanization remained significant for the quarter, totaling R$35.4 million, composed primarily of agricultural machinery and equipment and fitness of its units to receive the sugarcane from the mechanical harvesting.

CAA projects accounted for R$70.9 million of the total investments in the third quarter, amount 25.5% higher than the amount of R$56.5 million for the same period of last year. Such growth shows that the Company continues to maintain substantial investments in its production units in the processing and agricultural areas.

Cogeneration investments totaled R$84.9 million, of which 84.5% were for Ipaussu and Univalem units. Other units have far less significant realizations, since their projects are already in the final stage of implementation.

The greenfield projects of Cosan, Jataí (GO) and Caarapó (MS) accounted for investments of R$17.4 million in this quarter, of which R$13.9 million in Jataí and R$3.5 million in Caarapó. Of the total investments in Jataí for this period, approximately 69% were allocated to the industrial area.

Investments in expanding sugar plant capacity totaled R$ 7.9 million, 80.4% lower than the investments of the same period of last year. This reduction is due to the completion of the projects of the Gasa, Ipaussu, Bonfim, Junqueira, Tamoio and Costa Pinto units. Construction works remain only at Barra unit, in connection with the processing, logistics and bagging areas.

Rumo

In the 3Q11 Rumo had investments of R$ 123.6 million, in line with the amount invested in the last two quarters of this year. Of this amount, approximately 32% were allocated for the purchase of locomotives and 61% for investments in construction of permanent way.

G. Guidance

This section contains guidance ranges for selected key parameters of the Company for the fiscal year 2011, which began on April 1st, 2010 and will end on March 31st, 2011. Note that statements in other sections of this letter may also contain projections. These projections and guidance are merely estimates and indicative, and should not be construed as a guarantee of future performance. This guidance takes into consideration the operations held by the Cosan group today, which includes CAA, CCL, and Rumo Logística.

A new update of this fiscal year guidance is shown below due to the shortfall of sugar in the Brazilian Center- South region impacting Rumo´s loaded volume and reducing the estimates for sugar exports on the second half of this fiscal year.

On the other hand, due to market share gains and the growth of the Brazilian economy, the lubricants volume should be higher than previously estimated.

Due to the proximity of the end of fiscal year and consequent better visibility of the year-end results, the range of the guidance for the expected EBITDA was narrowed.

Report of independent registered public accounting firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Cosan Limited

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Cosan Limited and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the condensed consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Cosan Limited and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended not presented herein and in our report dated June 10, 2010, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2010, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Operations

Cosan Limited (“Cosan” and “the Company”) was incorporated in Bermuda as an exempted company on April 30, 2007. In connection with its incorporation, Cosan Limited issued 1,000 shares of common stock for $10.00 to Mr. Rubens Ometto Silveira Mello, who indirectly controls Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio and its subsidiaries (“Cosan S.A.”).

The companies included in the condensed consolidated financial statements have as their primary activity the production of ethanol and sugar, the marketing and distribution of fuel and lubricants in Brazil, and logistics services in the state of São Paulo, Brazil.

On February 1, 2010, the Company announced that it, along with Royal Dutch Shell - (“Shell”), had reached a non-binding memorandum of understanding (“MOU”)  to form a joint venture for a combined 50/50 investment. On August 25, 2010, Cosan announced the conclusion of the negotiations with Shell and signed a binding MOU along with other arrangements. Cosan will contribute its sugar and ethanol and its distribution assets to the joint venture while Shell will contribute its distribution assets in Brazil. Shell will also make a fixed cash contribution in the amount of $1.6 billion over a 2 year period. The sugar logistics and distribution of lubricants business along with the investment in Radar Propriedades Agrícolas S.A. will not be contributed to the joint venture. On January 4, 2011, the Company received unconditional merger clearance from the European Union to form the proposed Joint Venture in Brazil. The two companies will now focus on securing conditions precedent to be met or waived, and detailed integration work before launching the joint venture, expected for the first half of 2011, as announced on August 25, 2010. The Joint Venture is still under analysis by the Brazilian Competition Authority (CADE. During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010, this association did not generate any accounting records.

On July 2, 2010, the indirect subsidiary Novo Rumo Logística S.A. (“Novo Rumo”), entered into a Subscription Agreement with TPG Participações and GIF LOG Participações S.A. (“Investors”) whereby the investors would acquire a 25% equity interest of Rumo Logistica S.A. (“Rumo”), a subsidiary of Novo Rumo. On September 2, 2010, the subscription took place through a capital increase in the amount of $227,790, paid in equal portions by the Investors and the issuance of shares by Rumo. Before the payment the Company held, directly and indirectly, an equity interest of 92.9% in Novo Rumo, which, in turn, held an equity interest of 99.9% in Rumo Logistica S.A.. After the contribution, Novo Rumo now holds 75.0% of Rumo’s equity and each of the Investors hold a 12.5% interest. This transaction was treated as an equity transaction.

Presentation of the consolidated financial statements

 
 a.
Basis of reporting for interim financial statements

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results for the periods presented. Interim results for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cosan Limited and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Cosan Limited`s annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.

The functional currency and the reporting currency of Cosan is the U.S. dollar.  The Brazilian real is the currency of the primary economic environment in which Cosan S.A. and its subsidiaries located in Brazil operate and generate and expend cash and is the functional currency, except for the foreign subsidiaries in which U.S. dollar is the functional currency. However, Cosan S.A. utilizes the U.S. dollar as its reporting currency. The accounts of Cosan S.A. are maintained in Brazilian reais, which have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830 “Foreign Currency Matters. The assets and liabilities are translated from reais to U.S. dollars using the official exchange rates reported by the Brazilian Central Bank at the balance sheet date and revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average exchange rates for the period. The translation gain or loss is included in the accumulated other comprehensive income component of shareholders’ equity, and in the statement of comprehensive income for the period in accordance with the criteria established in ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income”.

The exchange rate of the Brazilian real (R$) to the US$ was R$1.67=US$ 1.00 at December 31, 2010 and R$1.78=US$1.00 at March 31, 2010.

 b.
Use of estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These estimates and assumptions are reviewed and updated regularly to reflect recent experience.

 
 c.
New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which will require companies to make new disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair value measurements including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value hierarchies and information on purchases, sales, issuance and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU is effective prospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The new disclosures about purchases, sales, issuance and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2010-06 will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts, a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (Issue No. 10-A). This ASU modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test under FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts to require an entity to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are adverse qualitative factors in determining whether an interim goodwill impairment test between annual test dates is necessary. The ASU allows an entity to use either the entity or enterprise valuation premise to determine the carrying amount of a reporting unit. On adoption of the ASU, goodwill impairment that results from this requirement to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test would be recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2010-28 will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 
d.
Derivative financial instruments

Cosan accounts for derivative financial instruments utilizing ASC 815, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, as amended. As part of Cosan’s risk management program, it uses a variety of financial instruments, including commodity futures contracts, forward currency agreements, interest rate and foreign exchange swap contracts and option contracts. Beginning April 1, 2010, Cosan recognized a portion of its derivative instruments as cash flow hedge transactions.  The derivative instruments are measured at fair value and the gains or losses resulting from the changes in fair value of the instruments are recorded in financial income or financial expense or other comprehensive income when designated as a cash flow hedge (effective portion only). See note 14 for further detail.

Resolution No. 2471 - Special Agricultural Financing Program (Programa Especial de Saneamento de Ativos), or PESA

To extend the repayment period of debt incurred by Brazilian agricultural producers, the Brazilian government passed Law 9.138 followed by Central Bank Resolution 2,471, which, together, formed the PESA program.  PESA offered certain agricultural producers with certain types of debt the opportunity to acquire Brazilian treasury bills (“CTNs”) in an effort to restructure their agricultural debt. The face value of the Brazilian treasury bills was the equivalent of the value of the restructured debt and was for a term of 20 years.

Long-term debt (Continued)

Resolution No. 2471 - Special Agricultural Financing Program (Programa Especial de Saneamento de Ativos), or PESA (Continued)

The acquisition price was calculated by the present value, discounted at a rate of 12% per year or at the equivalent of 10.4% of its face value. The CTNs were deposited as a guarantee with a financial institution and cannot be renegotiated until the outstanding balance is paid in full. The outstanding balance associated with the principal is adjusted in accordance with the IGP-M until the expiration of the restructuring term, which is also 20 years, at which point the debt will be discharged in exchange for the CTNs. Because the CTNs will have the same face value as the outstanding balance at the end of the term, it will not be necessary to incur additional debt to pay the PESA debt.

On July 31, 2003, the Central Bank issued Resolution 3,114, authorizing the reduction of up to five percentage points of PESA related interest rates, effectively lowering the above-mentioned rates to 3%, 4% and 5%, respectively. The CTNs held by Cosan S.A. as of December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 amounted to $172,445 and $143,495, respectively, and are classified as other non-current assets.

Accounts receivable from Federal Government

The subsidiary Cosan Açúcar e Álcool has several indemnification suits filed against the Federal Government. The suits relate to product prices that did not conform to the reality of the market, which were mandatorily established at the time the sector was under the Government‘s control.

In connection with one of these suits, a final and unappealable decision in the amount of US$149,121 was rendered in September 2006 in favor of Usina de Barra. This has been recorded as a gain in the statement of operations in 2007. Since the recorded amount is substantially composed of interest and monetary restatement, it was recorded in financial income and in a non-current receivable on the balance sheet. In connection with the settlement process, the form of payment continues to be negotiated with the government.

At December 31, 2010, the receivable and corresponding lawyers’ fees totaled US$205,323 and US$24,639 (US$187,385 and US$22,486 at March 31, 2010), respectively.

Income taxes (Continued)

It is possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next twelve months, however, an estimate of the range of the possible change cannot be made at this time due to the long time to reach a settlement agreement or decision with the taxing authorities.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in Brazil and they are subject to income tax examinations by the relevant tax authorities for the years 2005 through 2010.

Deferred gain on sale of investments in subsidiaries

Agrícola Ponte Alta S.A. is a subsidiary whose principal assets are land used for the growing of sugarcane for Cosan S.A. On December 15, 2008, the shareholders approved a partial spin-off of the assets of Ponte Alta and created four new subsidiaries.  Agricultural land was then transferred from Ponte Alta to each of the entities. On December 30, 2008, two of the entities, Nova Agrícola Ponte Alta S.A. and Terras da Ponte Alta S.A. were sold to Radar, an affiliate company accounted for by the equity method. The selling price was fair value, $123,596, which resulted in a gain of $47,080. This gain has previously been deferred since there were no lease contracts executed for the land, which was being used by Cosan S.A. for a monthly fee. During the year ended March 31, 2009 the lease contracts were executed, and the gain is being amortized to profit and loss over the 19 year average term of the leases since then.
 
During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010, Cosan S.A. recognized a gain of $2,893 related to this sale-leaseback transaction.


13.
Share-based compensation

Cosan Limited’s subsidiary, Cosan S.A., offers a stock option plan to officers and employees. The plan authorizes the issue of up to 5% of the shares comprising Cosan S.A.’s share capital. The exercise of options may be settled only through issuance of new common shares or treasury shares.

The employees that resign Cosan S.A. before the vesting period will forfeit 100% of their rights. However, if the employment is terminated by Cosan S.A. without cause, the employees will have right to exercise 100% of their options of that particular year plus the right to exercise 50% of the options of the following year.

As of December 31, 2010, the amount of $851 related to the unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options is expected to be recognized in 9 months.

As of December 31, 2010 there were 112,440  options outstanding with a weighted-average exercise price of $3.67.

Risk management and financial instruments

  a)  Risk management

The Company is exposed to market risks, mainly related to the volatility of sugar prices and foreign exchange rates. Management analyzes these risks and uses financial instruments to hedge a portion of the risk exposure.

On December 31 and March 31, 2010, fair values related to transactions involving derivative financial instruments with the purpose of hedge or other purposes were measured at market value (fair value) by observables factors such as quoted prices in active markets or discounted cash flows based on market curves and are presented below:

  b)  Price risk

This arises from the possibility of fluctuations in the market prices of products sold by the Company, mainly raw material sugar - VHP (sugar #11) and white sugar (LIFFE sugar #5). These fluctuations in prices can cause substantial changes in the revenues of the Company.  To mitigate these risks, the Company constantly
monitors the markets, seeking to anticipate changes in prices. The positions of the consolidated derivative financial instruments to hedge the price risk of commodities are shown in the table below:

 c)
Foreign exchange risk

This arises from the possibility of fluctuations in the exchange rates of the foreign currencies used by the Company for the export revenues of products, imports, debt cash flow and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency.  The Company uses derivative transactions to manage the risks of cash flow coming from the export revenues denominated in U.S. dollars, net of other cash flows denominated in foreign currency.

  d)  hedge accounting effects

The Company formally designated its transactions subject to hedge accounting for cash flow hedges from sugar VHP (raw material) export revenue, documenting: (i) the relationship of the hedge, (ii) the Company’s purpose for taking the hedge and its risk management strategy, (iii) identification of the financial instrument, (iv) the transaction or item covered, (v) the nature of the risk being hedged, (vi) a description of the hedging relationship (vii) the demonstration of correlation between the hedge and the object of coverage, and (viii) the prospective analysis of hedge effectiveness. The Company has designated derivative financial instruments of Sugar # 11 (NYBOT or OTC) to cover the risk of price and Non-Deliverable Forwards (NDF) to cover exchange rate risk, as demonstrated in topics (b) and (c) of this Note.

The Company records gains and losses deemed effective for purposes of hedge accounting to a specific account in shareholders´ equity (“other comprehensive income”), until the object of coverage (hedged item) affects the profit and loss.

Risk management and financial instruments (Continued)

 
 e)
Interest rate risk

The Company monitors fluctuations of the interest rates related to certain loan contracts, mainly those with Libor interest rate risk, and in the event of increased volatility of such rates, it may engage in transactions with derivatives so as to minimize such risks. At December 31, 2010, the Company presented the following net balance sheet exposure related to interest rate risk:
 
Interest rate risk: outstanding interest rate swap derivatives on December 31, 2010  
Derivative   Purchased/sold   Market   Contract   Number of Contract   Average price   Notional     Fair value  
Swap   Purchased   OCT/Cetip   Fix/Libor 3 month     1   1.199%/libor 3 Month     69,192       (423 )
Swap   Purchased   OCT/Cetip   Fix/Libor 3 month     1   1.199%/libor 3 Month     138,382       (846 )
                            207,574       (1,269 )
 
 
 f)
Credit risk

A significant portion of sales made by the Company is to a select group of best-in-class counterparts (i.e. trading companies, fuel distribution companies and large supermarket chains).

Credit risk is managed through specific rules of client acceptance including credit ratings and limits for customer exposure, including the requirement of a letter of credit from major banks and obtaining actual warranties on given credit, when applicable. Management believes that the risk of credit is covered by the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The Company buys and sells commodity derivatives in futures and options markets on the New York Board of Trade (NYBOT) and the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange (LIFFE), as well as in the over-the-counter (OTC) market with selected counterparties. The Company buys and sells foreign exchange derivatives on BM&FBovespa and OTC contracts registered with CETIP (OTC clearing house) with banks Goldman Sachs & Co, Banco Barclays S.A., BNP Paribas Commodity Futures Ltd, Newedge LLC, Macquarie Bank Ltd, ADM Investors Services International Limited (Hencorp), Prudential Bache Commodities LLC, Natixis Commodity Markets Ltd, Espirito Santo Investmento do Brasil S.A., Deutsche Bank S.A. – Banco Alemão, Banco Bradesco S.A., Banco JP Morgan S.A., Banco Standard de Investimentos S.A., Banco Morgan Stanley Witter S.A. and Banco BTG Pactual S.A.

 f)
Credit risk (Continued)

Guarantee margins – The Company’s derivative operations on commodity exchanges (NYBOT, LIFFE and BM&FBovespa) require an initial guarantee margin. The brokers with which the Company operates on these commodity exchanges offer credit limits for these margins. As of December 30, 2010, the total credit limit used as initial margin was $83,227 ($38,543 as of March 31, 2010). As a requirement to trade in BM&FBovespa, the Company posted on December 31, 2010, the amount of $19,061 ($46,627 as of March 31, 2010) as guarantee in the form of a settlement bond issued by a first-class banking institution. Over-the-counter derivative transactions of the Company are exempt from margin guarantees.

 
 g)
Debt acceleration risk

As of December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the Company was a party to loan and financing agreements with covenants generally applicable to these operations, including requirements related to cash generation, debt to equity ratio and others. These covenants are being fully complied with by the Company and do not place any restrictions on its operations as a going-concern.

Fair value measurements

Effective May 1, 2008, Cosan adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), for all financial instruments and non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a new framework for measuring fair value and expands related disclosures. Broadly, the ASC 820 framework requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 establishes market or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs.

16.
Fair value measurements (continued)

The valuation techniques required by ASC 820 are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 - Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

The following section describes the valuation methodologies Cosan uses to measure different financial instruments at fair value.

Derivatives

Cosan uses closing prices for derivatives included in Level 1, which are traded either on exchanges or liquid over-the-counter markets.

The remainder of the derivatives portfolio is valued using internal models, most of which are primarily based on market observable inputs including interest rate curves and both forward and spot prices for currencies and commodities. Derivative assets
and liabilities included in Level 2 primarily represent interest rate swaps, foreign currency swaps and commodity forward contracts.
The following table presents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2010.

Segment information

a.  Segment information

The following information about segments is based upon information used by Cosan’s senior management to assess the performance of operating segments and to decide on the allocation of resources. Cosan’s operating and reportable segments are business units in Brazil that target different industry segments. Each reportable segment is managed separately because of the need to specifically address customer needs in these different industries. The operations of these segments are based solely in Brazil.

The Company has three operating segments: Sugar and Ethanol (“S&E”), Fuel Distribution and Lubricants (“CCL”), and Sugar Logistics (“Rumo”).

The S&E segment produces and sells a broad variety of sugar and ethanol products.

The sugar products include raw (also known as very high polarization - VHP sugar), organic, crystal and refined sugars, which are sold to a wide range of customers in Brazil and abroad. Cosan exports the majority of the sugar produced through international commodity trading companies. Cosan’s domestic customers include wholesale distributors, food manufacturers and retail supermarkets, through which it sells its “Da Barra” and “União” branded products.  The ethanol products include fuel ethanol and industrial ethanol. Cosan’s principal fuel ethanol products are hydrous and anhydrous. Hydrous ethanol is used as an automotive fuel and anhydrous (which has a lower water content than hydrous ethanol) is used as an additive in gasoline.  The fuel ethanol products are mainly sold in the domestic market by fuel distribution companies. Consumption of hydrous ethanol in Brazil is increasing as a result of the introduction of flex fuel vehicles that can run on either gasoline or ethanol (or a combination of both).  In addition, the S&E segment sells liquid and gel ethanol products used mainly in the production of paint, cosmetics and alcoholic beverages for industrial clients in various sectors. Also, the S&E segment includes the co-generation activities and most of the corporate activities.

The CCL segment is engaged in the distribution in Brazil of fuel products, derived from petroleum or ethanol, and lubricants as well as the operation of convenience stores.

The network to which the fuel distribution segment distributes such products is comprised of approximately 1,700 fuel stations.

The Rumo segment provides logistics services for the transport, storage and port lifting of sugar for both the S&E segment and third parties.

Subsequent events

On January 11, 2011, Cosan entered into a binding memorandum of understanding with the shareholders of Usina Zanin Açúcar e Álcool Ltda. (“Zanin”), subject to an exclusivity period of 45 days, aiming to purchase the total outstanding equity interests of Zanin for the amount of R$142.0 million (“Transaction”), to be funded with available cash. In addition, Cosan will assume debts amounting to R$236.6 million. This Transaction will include Zanin assets related to the industrial and agricultural activities with annual crushing capacity of approximately 2.6 million tons of sugarcane and a greenfield project in the city of Prata, State of Minas Gerais.

The formation of this Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of some precedent conditions such as the successful renegotiation of the financial liabilities with banks and the negotiation of the final contracts.

Report of independent registered public accounting firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the condensed consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended not presented herein and in our report dated June 10, 2010, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2010, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Operations

Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio and subsidiaries (“Cosan” or “the Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil. Cosan shares are traded on the São Paulo Stock Exchange (Bovespa).

Cosan Limited, a company incorporated in Bermuda, is the controlling shareholder of Cosan holding a 62.19% interest therein as of December 31, 2010 (62.27% as of March 31, 2010). The class “A” common shares of Cosan Limited are traded in the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Bovespa.

The companies included in the condensed consolidated financial statements have as their primary activity the production of ethanol and sugar, the marketing and distribution of fuel and lubricants in Brazil, and logistics services in the state of São Paulo, Brazil.

On February 1, 2010, the Company announced that it, along with Royal Dutch Shell (“Shell”), had reached a non-binding memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) to form a joint venture for a combined 50/50 investment. On August 25, 2010 the Company announced the conclusion of the negotiations with Shell and signed a binding MOU along with other arrangements. Cosan will contribute its sugar and ethanol and its distribution assets to the joint venture while Shell will contribute its distribution assets in Brazil. Shell will also make a fixed cash contribution in the amount of $1.6 billion over a 2 year period. The sugar logistics and distribution of lubricants business along with the investment in Radar Propriedades Agrícolas S.A. will not be contributed to the joint venture. On January 4, 2011, the Company received unconditional merger clearance from the European Union to form the proposed Joint Venture in Brazil. The two companies will now focus on securing conditions precedent to be met or waived, and detailed integration work before launching the joint venture, expected for the first half of 2011, as announced on August 25, 2010. The Joint Venture is still under analysis by the Brazilian Competition Authority (CADE). During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010, this association did not generate any accounting records.

Operations (Continued)

On July 2, 2010, the indirect subsidiary Novo Rumo Logística S.A. (“Novo Rumo”), entered into a Subscription Agreement with TPG Participações and GIF LOG Participações S.A. (“Investors”) whereby the investors would acquire a 25% equity interest of Rumo Logistica S.A. (“Rumo”), a subsidiary of Novo Rumo. On September 2, 2010, the subscription took place through a capital increase in the amount of $227,790, paid in equal portions by the Investors and the issuance of shares by Rumo. Before the payment the Company held, directly and indirectly, an equity interest of 92.9% in Novo Rumo, which, in turn, held an equity interest of 99.9% in Rumo Logistica S.A. After the contribution, Novo Rumo now holds 75.0% of Rumo’s equity and each of the Investors hold a 12.5% interest. This transaction was treated as an equity transaction.

Presentation of the consolidated financial statements

 
 a.
Basis of reporting for interim financial statements

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results for the periods presented. Interim results for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cosan and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Cosan`s annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.

The accounts of Cosan and its subsidiaries are maintained in Brazilian reais, which is the functional currency.  The accounts have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”.

The exchange rate of the Brazilian real (R$) to the US$ was R$1.67=US$ 1.00 at December 31, 2010 and R$1.78=US$1.00 at March 31, 2010.

 b.
Use of estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These estimates and assumptions are reviewed and updated regularly to reflect recent experience.

 
 c.
New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which will require companies to make new disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair value measurements including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value hierarchies and information on purchases, sales, issuance and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU is effective prospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The new disclosures about purchases, sales, issuance and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2010-06 will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts, a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (Issue No. 10-A). This ASU modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test under FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts to require an entity to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are adverse qualitative factors in determining whether an interim goodwill impairment test between annual test dates is necessary. The ASU allows an entity to use either the entity or enterprise valuation premise to determine the carrying amount of a reporting unit. On adoption of the ASU, goodwill impairment that results from this requirement to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test would be recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2010-28 will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 
 d.
Derivative financial instruments

Cosan accounts for derivative financial instruments utilizing ASC 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended. As part of Cosan’s risk management program, it uses a variety of financial instruments, including commodity futures contracts, forward currency agreements, interest rate and foreign exchange swap contracts and option contracts. Beginning April 1, 2010, Cosan recognized a portion of its derivative instruments as cash flow hedge transactions.  The derivative instruments are measured at fair value and the gains or losses resulting from the changes in fair value of the instruments are recorded in financial income or financial expense or other comprehensive income when designated as a cash flow hedge (effective portion only). See note 14 for further detail.

Resolution No. 2471 - Special Agricultural Financing Program (Programa Especial de Saneamento de Ativos), or PESA

To extend the repayment period of debts incurred by Brazilian agricultural producers, the Brazilian government passed Law 9.138 followed by Central Bank Resolution 2,471, which, together, formed the PESA program.  PESA offered certain agricultural producers with certain types of debt the opportunity to acquire Brazilian treasury bills (“CTNs”) in an effort to restructure their agricultural debt. The face value of the Brazilian treasury bills was the equivalent of the value of the restructured debt and was for a term of 20 years.

Resolution No. 2471 - Special Agricultural Financing Program (Programa Especial de Saneamento de Ativos), or PESA (Continued)

The acquisition price was calculated by the present value, discounted at a rate of 12% per year or at the equivalent of 10.4% of its face value. The CTNs were deposited as a guarantee with a financial institution and cannot be renegotiated until the outstanding balance is paid in full. The outstanding balance associated with the principal is adjusted in accordance with the IGP-M until the expiration of the restructuring term, which is also 20 years, at which point the debt will be discharged in exchange for the CTNs. Because the CTNs will have the same face value as the outstanding balance at the end of the term, it will not be necessary to incur additional debt to pay PESA debt.

On July 31, 2003, the Central Bank issued Resolution 3,114, authorizing the reduction of up to five percentage points of PESA related interest rates, effectively lowering the above-mentioned rates to 3%, 4% and 5%, respectively. The CTNs held by Cosan as of December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 amounted to $162,836 and $133,039, respectively, and are classified as other non-current assets.

Cosan and its subsidiaries are parties in various ongoing labor claims, civil and tax proceedings in Brazil arising in the normal course of its business. Respective provisions for contingencies were recorded considering those cases in which the likelihood of loss has been rated as probable. Management believes resolution of these disputes will have no significant effect compared to the estimated amounts accrued.

Judicial deposits recorded by Cosan under other non-current assets, in the balance sheet, amounting to $108,558 at December 31, 2010 ($94,083 at March 31, 2010) have been made for certain of these suits. Judicial deposits are restricted assets of Cosan placed on deposit with the court and held in judicial escrow pending legal resolution of the related legal proceedings.

The major tax contingencies as of December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 are described as follows:

Accounts receivable from Federal Government

The subsidiary Cosan Açúcar e Álcool has several indemnification suits filed against the Federal Government. The suits relate to product prices that did not conform to the reality of the market, which were mandatorily established at the time the sector was under the Government‘s control.

In connection with one of these suits, a final and unappealable decision in the amount of US$149,121 was rendered in September 2006 in favor of Usina de Barra. This has been recorded as a gain in the statement of operations in 2007. Since the recorded amount is substantially composed of interest and monetary restatement, it was recorded in financial income and in a non-current receivable on the balance sheet. In connection with the settlement process, the form of payment continues to be negotiated with the government.

At December 31, 2010, the receivable and corresponding lawyers’ fees totaled US$205,323 and US$24,639 (US$187,385 and US$22,486 at March 31, 2010), respectively.

Income taxes (Continued)

Income taxes for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, differed from the amounts computed by applying the income tax rate of 25% and social contribution tax rate of 9% to income before income taxes due to the following:

2009
 
Income before income taxes and equity in loss of affiliates
    211,173       469,792  
Income tax expense at statutory rate — 34%
    (71,799 )     (159,729 )
Increase (reduction) in income taxes resulting from:
               
Equity in earnings of affiliates not subject to taxation
    (430 )     (1,840 )
Nondeductible donations and contributions
    (4,610 )     (1,437 )

Others
    (4,995 )     (12,407 )
Income tax expense
    (86,449 )     (178,298 )

Cosan accounts for unrecognized tax benefits in accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Uncertainly in Income Taxes”. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits in the estimated liability for legal proceedings, and labor claims, is as follows

Balance at March 31, 2010
    49,013  
Accrued interest on unrecognized tax benefit

Effect of foreign currency translation
    3,428  
Balance at December 31, 2010 (*)
    54,212  
(*) Recorded as taxes payable (long-term)

It is possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next twelve months, however, an estimate of the range of the possible change cannot be made at this time due to the long time to reach a settlement agreement or decision with the taxing authorities.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in Brazil and they are subject to income tax examinations by the relevant tax authorities for the years 2005 through 2010.

Shareholders’ equity

 
a.
Capital

On July 29, 2010, the Board of Directors approved a capital increase of US$1 through issuance of 60 new common shares, with no par value, at an issue price of US$9.00, due to exercise of subscription warrants by the holders. On the same day, the shareholders unanimously approved a capital increase of $1,558 through the issuance of 449,819 newly registered uncertificated common shares with no par value, in connection with the “Company’s Stock Option Plan”, due to exercise of such options by qualifying executives.

On September 17, 2010, the Board of Directors approved a capital increase of US$326 through issuance of 91,657 new common shares, with no par value, for purposes of meeting the needs of the Stock Option Plan, due to exercise of such options by qualifying executives.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s capital is represented by 407,101,853 common shares (406,560,317 as of March 31, 2010), with no par value.

Treasury stock

On November 22, 2010, the Board of Directors approved a program to buy back the Company‘s common shares, to be held in treasury for future sale or cancellation.

Shareholders’ equity (Continued)

b.  Dividends

On July 30, 2010, additional dividends over the minimum compulsory of $47,479, were approved in the extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting in relation to the year ended March 31, 2010.

   c. Additional paid-in capital and noncontrolling interest

As mentioned in note 1, on September 2, 2010, the shareholders approved a capital increase at Rumo through issuance of shares in exchange for cash provided by investors. As a result of this transaction, Cosan recorded noncontrolling interest in the amount of $110,247. The cash contribution in excess of the book value the investors interest in Rumo has been accounted for as an equity transaction, leading to an additional paid-in capital of $117,543.


12.
Deferred gain on sale of investments in subsidiaries
 
Agrícola Ponte Alta S.A. is a subsidiary whose principal assets are land used for the growing of sugarcane for Cosan. On December 15, 2008, the shareholders approved a partial spin-off of the assets of Ponte Alta and created four new subsidiaries.  Agricultural land was then transferred from Ponte Alta to each of the entities. On December 30, 2008, two of the entities, Nova Agrícola Ponte Alta S.A. and Terras da Ponte Alta S.A. were sold to Radar, an affiliate company accounted for by the equity method. The selling price was fair value, $123,596, which resulted in a gain of $47,080. This gain has previously been deferred since there were no lease contracts executed for the land, which was being used by Cosan for a monthly fee.  During the year ended March 31, 2009 the lease contracts were executed, and the gain is being amortized to profit and loss over the 19 year average term of the leases since then.
 
During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010, the Company recognized a gain of $2,893 related to this sale-leaseback transaction.

options may be settled only through issuance of new common shares or treasury shares.

Share-based compensation (Continued)

The employees that resign Cosan S.A before the vesting period will forfeit 100% of their rights. However, if the employment is terminated by Cosan without cause, the employees will have right to exercise 100% of their options of that particular year plus the right to exercise 50% of the options of the following year.

The fair value of share-based awards was estimated using a binominal model with the following assumptions:

b) 
Price risk

This arises from the possibility of fluctuations in the market prices of products sold by the Company, mainly raw material sugar - VHP (sugar #11) and white sugar (LIFFE sugar #5). These fluctuations in prices can cause substantial changes in the revenues of the Company.  To mitigate these risks, the Company constantly monitors the markets, seeking to anticipate changes in prices. The positions of the consolidated derivative financial instruments to hedge the price risk of commodities are shown in the table below:

Foreign exchange risk

This arises from the possibility of fluctuations in the exchange rates of the foreign currencies used by the Company for the export revenues of products, imports, debt cash flow and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency.  The Company uses derivative transactions to manage the risks of cash flow coming from the export revenues denominated in U.S. dollars, net of other cash flows denominated in foreign currency.

  d)  hedge accounting effects

The Company formally designated its transactions subject to hedge accounting for cash flow hedges from sugar VHP (raw material) export revenue, documenting: (i) the relationship of the hedge, (ii) the Company’s purpose for taking the hedge and its risk management strategy, (iii) identification of the financial instrument, (iv) the transaction or item covered, (v) the nature of the risk being hedged, (vi) a description of the hedging relationship (vii) the demonstration of correlation between the hedge and the object of coverage, and (viii) the prospective analysis of hedge effectiveness. The Company has designated derivative financial instruments of Sugar # 11 (NYBOT or OTC) to cover the risk of price and Non-Deliverable Forwards (NDF) to cover exchange rate risk, as demonstrated in topics (b) and (c) of this Note.

The Company records gains and losses deemed effective for purposes of hedge accounting to a specific account in shareholders´ equity (“other comprehensive income”), until the object of coverage (hedged item) affects the profit and loss.

During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded the amount of $8,967 on results for operations due to hedged items that would no longer qualify to be designated under hedge accounting. Also, the Company recorded the amount of $219 related to the gains and losses of the hedges’ ineffectiveness during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010.

 
 e)
Interest rate risk

The Company monitors fluctuations of the interest rates related to certain loan contracts, mainly those with Libor interest rate risk, and in the event of increased volatility of such rates, it may engage in transactions with derivatives so as to minimize such risks. At December 31, 2010, the Company presented the following net balance sheet exposure related to interest rate risk:

 f)
Credit risk

A significant portion of sales made by the Company is to a select group of best-in-class counterparts (i.e. trading companies, fuel distribution companies and large supermarket chains).

Credit risk is managed through specific rules of client acceptance including credit ratings and limits for customer exposure, including the requirement of a letter of credit from major banks and obtaining actual warranties on given credit, when applicable. Management believes that the risk of credit is covered by the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The Company buys and sells commodity derivatives in futures and options markets on the New York Board of Trade (NYBOT) and the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange (LIFFE), as well as in the over-the-counter (OTC) market with selected counterparties. The Company buys and sells foreign exchange derivatives on BM&FBovespa and OTC contracts registered with CETIP (OTC clearing house) with banks Goldman Sachs & Co, Banco Barclays S.A., BNP Paribas Commodity Futures Ltd, Newedge LLC, Macquarie Bank Ltd, ADM Investors Services International Limited (Hencorp), Prudential Bache Commodities LLC, Natixis Commodity Markets Ltd, Espirito Santo Investmento do Brasil S.A., Deutsche Bank S.A. – Banco Alemão, Banco Bradesco S.A., Banco JP Morgan S.A., Banco Standard de Investimentos S.A., Banco Morgan Stanley Witter S.A. and Banco BTG Pactual S.A..

Risk management and financial instruments (Continued)

Guarantee margins – The Company’s derivative operations on commodity exchanges (NYBOT, LIFFE and BM&FBovespa) require an initial guarantee margin. The brokers with which the Company operates on these commodity exchanges offer credit limits for these margins. As of December 30, 2010, the total credit limit used as initial margin was $83,227 ($38,543 as of March 31, 2010). As a requirement to trade in BM&FBovespa, the Company posted on December 31, 2010, the amount of $19,061 ($46,627 as of March 31, 2010) as guarantee in the  form of a settlement bond issued by a first-class banking institution. Over-the-counter derivative transactions of the Company are exempt from margin guarantees.

 
 g)
Debt acceleration risk

As of December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the Company was a party to loan and financing agreements with covenants generally applicable to these operations, including requirements related to cash generation, debt to equity ratio and others. These covenants are being fully complied with by the Company and do not place any restrictions on its operations as a going-concern.


15.
Fair value measurements

Effective May 1, 2008, Cosan adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, for all financial instruments and non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a new framework for measuring fair value and expands related disclosures. Broadly, the ASC 820 framework requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 establishes market or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs.
The valuation techniques required by ASC 820 are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Fair value measurements (Continued)

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 - Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

The following section describes the valuation methodologies Cosan uses to measure different financial instruments at fair value.

Derivatives

Cosan uses closing prices for derivatives included in Level 1, which are traded either on exchanges or liquid over-the-counter markets.

The remainder of the derivatives portfolio is valued using internal models, most of which are primarily based on market observable inputs including interest rate curves and both forward and spot prices for currencies and commodities. Derivative assets and liabilities included in Level 2 primarily represent interest rate swaps, foreign currency swaps and commodity forward contracts.
 
The following table presents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2010.

Segment information

a. Segment information

The following information about segments is based upon information used by Cosan’s senior management to assess the performance of operating segments and to decide on the allocation of resources. Cosan’s operating and reportable segments are business units in Brazil that target different industry segments. Each reportable segment is managed separately because of the need to specifically address customer needs in these different industries. The operations of these segments are based solely in Brazil.

The Company has three operating segments: Sugar and Ethanol (“S&E”), Fuel Distribution and Lubricants (“CCL”), and Sugar Logistics (“Rumo”).

The S&E segment produces and sells a broad variety of sugar and ethanol products.

The sugar products include raw (also known as very high polarization - VHP sugar), organic, crystal and refined sugars, which are sold to a wide range of customers in Brazil and abroad. Cosan exports the majority of the sugar produced through international commodity trading companies. Cosan’s domestic customers include wholesale distributors, food manufacturers and retail supermarkets, through which it sells its “Da Barra” and “União” branded products.  The ethanol products include fuel ethanol and industrial ethanol. Cosan’s principal fuel ethanol products are hydrous and anhydrous. Hydrous ethanol is used as an automotive fuel and anhydrous (which has a lower water content than hydrous ethanol) is used as an additive in gasoline.  The fuel ethanol products are mainly sold in the domestic market by fuel distribution companies. Consumption of hydrous ethanol in Brazil is increasing as a result of the introduction of flex fuel vehicles that can run on either gasoline or ethanol (or a combination of both).  In addition, the S&E segment sells liquid and gel ethanol products used mainly in the production of paint, cosmetics and alcoholic beverages for industrial clients in various sectors. Also, the S&E segment includes the co-generation activities and most of the corporate activities.

The CCL segment is engaged in the distribution in Brazil of fuel products, derived from petroleum or ethanol, and lubricants as well as the operation of convenience stores. The network to which the fuel distribution segment distributes such products is comprised of approximately 1,700 fuel stations.

On January 11, 2011, the Company entered into a binding memorandum of understanding with the shareholders of Usina Zanin Açúcar e Álcool Ltda. (“Zanin”), subject to an exclusivity period of 45 days, aiming to purchase the total outstanding equity interests of Zanin for the amount of R$142.0 million (“Transaction”), to be funded with available cash. In addition, Cosan will assume debts amounting to R$236.6 million. This Transaction will include Zanin assets related to the industrial and agricultural activities with annual crushing capacity of approximately 2.6 million tons of sugarcane and a greenfield project in the city of Prata, State of Minas Gerais.

The formation of this Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of some precedent conditions such as the successful renegotiation of the financial liabilities with banks and the negotiation of the final contracts.

REVIEW REPORT ON QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio

1.
We have reviewed the quarterly financial information which include the balance sheet (individual and consolidated) of Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio as of December 31, 2010 and the related statements (individual and consolidated) of income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this quarterly financial information in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this quarterly financial information based on our review.

2.
We conducted our review in accordance with the Brazilian and International standards on review engagements. A review of quarterly financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with standards on auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

3.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying quarterly financial information has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil.

4.
As mentioned in Note 2, during the 2009, CVM approved several Pronouncements, Interpretations and Technical Orientations issued by the Committee of Accounting Pronouncements (“CPC”) effective 2010, which have changed accounting practices adopted in Brazil. As permitted by CVM Deliberation 603/09, management of the Company opted to present is Quarterly Financial Information using the same accounting standards adopted in Brazil until December 31, 2009, therefore, it did not apply the new pronouncements effective in 2010. As required by the CVM Deliberation, the Company disclosed this fact in Note 2 of the Quarterly Financial Information as well as the description of the main changes the can have an impact in its financial statements at the end of the year and the reasons that avoid the presentation of the estimated effects in shareholders’ equity and income, as required by the Deliberation.

Basis of preparation and presentation of the quarterly financial statements (Continued)

CVM, through Resolution 603, of November 10, 2009 and amendments, authorized the publicly-held companies to adopt in advance these pronouncements for the year ended December 31, 2009, provided that these pronouncements were fully adopted.

In addition, it has also provided for the presentation of the quarterly financial statements for the fiscal year of 2010 in accordance with the accounting standards effective since December 31, 2009, with the requirement to disclose the Note describing the main modifications that may have an impact on the financial statements for the year-end, as well as an estimate for the possible effects on the shareholder's equity and on the Company's results, or the clarifications of the reasons that may prevent the company from presenting this estimate. In the case this option is adopted, the companies must present again the financial statements for the quarters ended in 2010, as compared to 2009, also adjusted in accordance with the rules for 2010, at least as regards to the presentation of the financial statements for the first quarter commencing as from April 2011.

The Company decided to present its information for the first and second quarters of 2010 in accordance with the rules effective up to December 31, 2009, considering that the adjustments according to the international accounting standards require review of flows, internal controls, systems and other material aspects, which are still in progress and, therefore, the Company is not able to currently present accurate estimates related to the possible effects. However, the Company, in its Best judgment, has carried out the evaluation of the technical pronouncements already issued and concluded that, at the exemption of the below mentioned technical pronouncements, the other pronouncements will not have a relevant impact on the equity and financial condition individual and consolidated of the Company, considering the transactions existent up to the date of this quarterly information:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The quarterly financial statements have been prepared according to principles, policies and criteria consistent with those adopted for the preparation of the financial statements as of March 31, 2010 and of the quarterly financial statements as of September 30, 2010, and must be read in conjunction with them.

Derivative financial instruments of protection (hedge)

During the nine months ended December 31, 2010, the Company adopted the hedge accounting following the provisions established by the Technical Guideline OCPC 03, of November 19, 2009.
 
 
Generally, the derivative financial instruments are evaluated according to their fair value in contrast of the result.

Some derivative financial instruments may be designated as hedge accounting according to three types of transactions: (i) cash flow hedge, (ii) fair value hedge or (iii) net investment hedge in a cross-border transaction.

Cash flow hedge

In respect of the cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss from the hedge instrument which is considered as an effective hedge is directly recognized in shareholders’ equity, in line item Adjustment to Shareholders’ Equity. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss from the hedge instrument is directly recognized in net income (loss) for the period as operating income or expense.

Fair value hedge and cross-border net investment hedge

The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments designated in these types of transactions.

Other financial instruments not classified as hedge instruments

Derivative instruments not classified in the definition of hedge accounting are recorded at fair value against net income (loss).

The effects resulting from the adoption of the hedge accounting are described in Note 20 to the financial statements.

Provision for Judicial Demands (Continued)

The Company and its subsidiaries are party to various ongoing labor claims, civil and tax proceedings arising from the normal course of their business.

Respective provisions for judicial demands were recorded considering those cases in which the likelihood of loss has been rated as probable based on the opinion of legal advisors. Management believes resolution of these disputes will have no effect significantly different than the estimated amounts accrued.

Judicial demands deemed as probable loss

a) Tax claims

 The main tax judicial demands at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010,are as follows:

(i) In 1993 subsidiary Cosan CL filed a suit to challenge the balance sheet restatement index (IPC) established by the federal government in 1989, which index did not reflect the actual inflation back then. The use of this index caused the Company to supposedly overstate and overpay the IRPJ and CSLL. Cosan CL obtained a favorable preliminary order that allowed it to recalculate the balance sheet restatement, now using indexes that accurately measured the inflation over the relevant period. In doing so the company rectified the amounts of IRPJ and CSLL payable. Identified overpayments for both taxes were offset in subsequent years until 1997, when the balance was zeroed. Despite the favorable court rulings, tax authorities issued a notice of infringement to the Company challenging all tax offsets performed in 1993 and some offsets in 1994 and 1997. Given the contingent nature of this tax offsetting, associated amounts were also recorded as a provision for court rulings and have been restated against the variation of the SELIC rate.

Provision for Judicial Demands (Continued)

Judicial demands deemed as probable loss (Continued)

a) Tax claims (Continued)

(ii) From September through December 1994, subsidiary Conan CL offset COFINS and several other taxes with previously paid amounts of FINSOCIAL. This offsetting was backed in a preliminary order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction in a suit brought to challenge the constitutionality of FINSOCIAL.

In 1995 Cosan CL was declared exempt from COFINS levies. Thus, the company understood that past offsets of COFINS against FINSOCIAL were not in order and in 2003, based on another favorable court ruling relative to FINSOCIAL, concluded that FINSOCIAL credits previously offset against CONFINS were once again available to be offset against other tax liabilities. The Company then offset these credits against IRPJ, CSLL, CIDE, PIS, COFINS and IRRF resulting from its operations. Once again, because of the contingent nature of this procedure the Company recorded the full offset amount as a provision for court rulings until the Federal Revenue Service ratified this offsetting.

In 2008 the Federal Revenue Service dismissed the offsetting performed on the ground that Cosan CL had already used the tax credits to offset COFINS back in 1994. In view of this understanding, the management of the Company decided to challenge the administrative decisions, which is pending judgment at the Taxpayers' Council. The amount recorded as provision for court ruling has been restated against the SELIC rate.

(iii) The amount accrued is represented by a) use of ICMS credits arising from the acquisition of use and consumption materials b) financial charges levied on debts settled in installments granted by the Finance Secretariat of the State of São Paulo, c) ICMS recalculated on the remittances made by Nova América Agroenergia (currently named Cosan Alimentos S.A.) for its branch in the State of Rio de Janeiro and d) several processes related to credits taken and rate differences on sales for other states carried out in FOB condition, basically concentrated in the companies Alcomira S.A. Açúcar e Álcool, Destilaria Vale do Tietê S.A. - Destivale, Benálcool S.A. Açúcar e Álcool e Univalem S.A. Açúcar a Álcool, merged by the Company.

b) Civil and labor claims

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to a number of civil claims related to (i) indemnity for physical and moral damages; (ii) public civil claims for avoidance of sugarcane burn; and (iii) environmental executions.

(i) Tax assessment – withholding income tax

In September 2006 the Federal Revenue Service served another notice of infringement on the Company, this time for failure to withhold and pay income tax at source on capital gains derived from the acquisition of a subsidiary company. This notice of infringement led to an administrative proceeding which is deemed a likely loss in the opinion of the Company's legal counsels, the amount of which was not recorded as a provision in the Company's quarterly financial information.

(ii) ICMS – State VAT

Refers mainly to (i) Tax Assessment filed in view of the alleged lack of payment of ICMS and non-compliance with accessory obligation, in connection with the agribusiness partnership and manufacturing upon demand, with Central Paulista Açúcar e Álcool Ltda., between May to December 2006 and May to December 2007; and (ii) ICMS levied on the remittances of crystallized sugar for export purposes. In accordance with the tax agent, such product is classified as semi-finished product and that, in accordance with the ICMS regulation, would be subject to taxation and (iii) ICMS levied on possible differences in terms of sugar and alcohol inventories, arising from magnetic tax files and Inventory Registry Books.

(iii) IPI – Federal VAT

SRF Normative Instruction n° 67/98 approved the procedure adopted by the industrial establishments which performed remittances without registries and payment of the IPI rate, as regards to the sugarcane transactions (demerara), high-quality crystal, special crystal, extra special crystal and refined sugar, carried out between July 6, 1995 and November 16, 1997 and with refined sugar (amorphe) between January 14, 1992 and November 16, 1997. Such rule was considered in the respective proceedings filed by the Federal Revenue Secretariat, the unfavorable outcome of which is deemed as possible, in accordance with the opinion of the Company’s legal advisors.

  (iv) Offsets against IPI credits – IN 67/98

SRF Normative Instruction No. 67/98 made it possible to obtain refund of IPI tax payments for sales of refined amorphous sugar from January 14, 1992 through November 16, 1997. In view of this rule, Cosan Açúcar and Álcool applied for offsetting amounts paid during the relevant periods against other tax liabilities of its own. However, the Federal Revenue Service denied its application for both reimbursement and offsetting of such amounts. Cosan Açúcar and Álcool challenged this ruling in an administrative proceeding.

Upon being notified to pay tax debts resulting from offset transactions in light of certain changes introduced by IN SRF No. 210/02, subsidiary Cosan Açúcar and Álcool filed a writ of mandamus and applied for a preliminary injunction seeking to stay enforceability of offset taxes, in an attempt to prevent the tax authorities from demanding the relevant tax debts in court. The preliminary injunction was granted by the competent court. The Company’s legal advisor, responsible for such proceeding, considered the related unfavorable outcome as probable.

The amount offset, duly restated as of December 31, 2010, is R$167,324 (R$165,814 as of September 30, 2010). Similarly, the subsidiary Cosan Alimentos S.A. filed the same claim before the Brazilian Federal Revenue Secretariat, which amount offset and updated, up to December 31, 2010, amounts to R$12,247 (R$12,141 as of September 30, 2010). In view of the opinion of its legal counsels, the management of the Company has seen fit not to establish an accounting provision for the amounts involved in this lawsuit.

b) Civil and labor claims

Accounts Receivable from the Federal Government

On February 28, 2007, subsidiary Cosan Açúcar e Álcool recognized gain of R$318,358, corresponding to a lawsuit filed against federal government claiming indemnification for damages since prices of its products, at the time the sector was subject to government control, were imposed not observing the prevailing reality of the sector created by government control itself. A final decision in favor of the subsidiary was handed down. The gain was recorded in the statement of operations for the year, the contra entry being to noncurrent assets of the Company, in receivables from federal government.

The Company awaits a final ruling on the manner of payment. This payment will be effected in the form of court-mandated government bonds which, once issued, will be settled within 10 years.

As of December 31, 2010, the assets reported relative to the suit for loss and damages and related provision for attorney's fees amounted to R$342,110 and R$41,053 (R$339,232 and R$40,708 as of September 30, 2010), respectively.

Subsidiary Cosan Açúcar e Álcool has other claims for damages of this nature filed against the Federal Government, which are not recognized in accounting since these still represent contingent assets.

Interest rate risk

The Company monitors fluctuations of the several interest rates to which its assets and liabilities are pegged, mainly those subject to Libor risk, and, in the event of increased volatility of such rates, it may engage in transactions with derivatives so as to minimize such risks. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had US$200,000 thousand (US$250,000 thousand as of September 30, 2010) hedged under swap agreement traded in over-the-counter market, whose market value is evaluated negatively at R$2,115 (the negative amount of R$2,969 as of September 30, 2010).

Credit risk

A significant portion of sales made by the Company and its subsidiaries is for a selected group of best-in-class counterparts, i.e. trading companies, fuel distribution companies and large supermarket chains.

Credit risk is managed through specific rules of client acceptance, credit rating and setting of limits for customer exposure, including the requirement of a letter of credit from major banks and obtaining actual warranties on given credit, when applicable. Management believes that the risk of credit is substantially covered by the allowance for doubtful accounts

The Company carries out commodity derivative transactions in the futures and options markets at the stock exchanges of New York (NYBOT) and London (LIFFE), as well as in the over-the-counter market with selected counterparts. The Company carries out foreign exchange derivative transactions at BM&F Bovespa and over-the-counter agreements registered with CETIP with Goldman Sachs & Co, Banco Barclays S.A., BNP Paribas Commodity Futures Ltd., Newedge LLC, Macquarie Bank Ltd., ADM Investors Services International Limited (Hencorp), Prudential Bache Commodities LLC, Natixis Commodity Markets Ltd., Espirito Santo Investment do Brasil S.A., Deutsche Bank S.A. – Banco Alemão, Banco Bradesco S.A., Banco JP Morgan S.A., Banco Standard de Investimentos S.A., Banco Morgan Stanley Witter S.A. and Banco BTG Pactual S.A.

Guarantee margins – The derivative transactions carried out in stock exchanges (NYBOT, LIFFE and BM&FBovespa) require an initial margin for guarantee purposes. The brokers with which the Company trades at such stock exchanges offer credit limits to these margins. As of December 31, 2010, the total credit limit considered for initial margin is R$138,672 (R$58,097 as of September 30, 2010). In order to trade at BM&F Bovespa, the Company counted with, as of December 31, 2010, R$31,760 (R$57,007 as of September 30, 2010) through the Settlement Guarantee provided by a first-class bank. T he Company’s derivative transactions in the over-the-counter market do not require guarantee margin.

Debt acceleration risk

As of December 31, 2010, the Company was a party to loan and financing agreements with covenants generally applicable to these operations, including requirements related to cash generation, debt to equity ratio and others.  These covenants are being fully complied with by the Company and do not place any restrictions on its operations.

 
 h)
Market values

As of December 31, 2010 the market values of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable approximate the amounts recorded to the consolidated quarterly information due to their short-term nature.

The fair value of the Senior Notes maturing in 2014 and 2017, as described in Note 13, according to their market value, were 115.5% and 106.0%, respectively, of their face value at December 31, 2010.

The fair value of Perpetual Notes as described in Note 13, according to its market value, was 100.6% of its face value at December 31, 2010.

As for the other loan and financing arrangements, their respective fair values substantially approximate the amounts recorded in the quarterly information considering that such instruments are subject to variable interest rates.

 
i)
Sensitivity analysis

Pursuant to CVM Rule Nº 475 issued on December 17, 2008, following is the sensitivity analysis of the fair value of financial instruments, in accordance with the types of risks deemed to be significant by the Company:

Assumptions for sensitivity analysis

For the analysis, the Company adopted three scenarios, being one probable and two that may have effects from impairment of the fair value of the Company’s  financial instruments. The probable scenario was defined based on the futures sugar and US dollar market curves as of December 31, 2010, the same which determines the fair value of the derivatives at that date. Possible and remote scenarios were defined based on adverse impacts of 25% and 50% over the sugar and dollar price curves, which served as basis for the probable scenario.

Insurance

At December 31, 2010, the Company and its subsidiaries maintain insurance coverage against fire, thunderbolts and explosions of any nature for the whole sugar and ethanol inventory and for specific buildings, equipment, facilities and machinery.

The scope of work of our auditors does not include the issue of an opinion on the sufficiency of the insurance coverage, which was considered by the Company's management sufficient to cover any damages.

Stock option plan

The Annual and Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held on August 30, 2005 approved the Guidelines for the Outlining and Structuring of a Stock Option Plan for Company’s officers and employees, thus authorizing the issue of up to 5% of the Company’s share capital. The stock option plan was designed to obtain and retain the services rendered by senior officers and employees, offering them the opportunity to become shareholders of the Company. On September 22, 2005, the Board of Directors approved the distribution of stock options corresponding to 4,302,780 common shares to be issued by the Company, related to 3.25% of the share capital at that time, as authorized by the Annual/Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting. On that same date, eligible officers were informed of the material terms and conditions of the share-based compensation agreement.

On September 11, 2007, the Board of Directors approved the distribution of stock options, corresponding to 450,000 common shares to be issued or purchased by the Company, related to 0.24% of the share capital at that time, as authorized by the Annual/Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting. On that same date, the eligible officer was informed of the material terms and conditions of the share-based compensation agreement. The remaining 1.51% may still be distributed.

On August 7, 2009, the Board of Directors approved a new distribution of stock option with no vesting period, corresponding to 165,657 common shares to be issued or purchased by the Company due to a change in the list of Company’s Officers.

Stock option plan (Continued)

Based on the fair value at the issue date, exercise price is R$6.11 (six Brazilian reais and eleven cents) per share, without discount. The exercise price was calculated before the above evaluation based on an expected private equity agreement, which was not entered into. The options become exercisable after one year period, considering a maximum percentage of 25% p.a. of total stock options offered by the Company, within a period of 5 years.

The exercised options shall be settled only upon the issue of new common or treasury shares that the Company may have on each date.

Should any holder of stock options cease to be an employee or manager of the Company, by death, retirement or permanent disability of the beneficiary, any options not previously vesting shall become extinct on the date that employee or officer separates from the Company. However, in the case of termination without cause, the terminated employees shall be entitled to exercise 100% of their options referring to that particular year, on top of exercising 50% of their options in the coming year.

At December 31, 2010, options equivalent to 112,440 common shares were not exercised.

Until December 31, 2010, all stock option exercises were settled through the issuance of new common shares. Should the remaining options also be exercised through the issuance of new common shares, the current shareholders' interest would be reduced by 0.03% after exercising all remaining options.

As of December 31, 2010, R$1,418 relating to unrecognized compensation cost relating to stock options  shall be recognized over approximately 9 months (R$1,934 as of September 30, 2010, with an approximate term of 12 months).


23.
Pension plan

The subsidiary Cosan CL sponsors Previd Exxon - Sociedade de Previdência Privada, a closed-ended supplementary pension entity set up on December 23, 1980 mainly engaged in the supplementation of benefits within certain limits set in its formation deeds, to which all employees of the sponsor and their beneficiaries are entitled as social security insured workers.

Actuarial liability related to Previd Exxon was determined as set forth in NPC 26 issued by IBRACON and is recorded under non-current liabilities, as of December 31, 2010, in the amount of R$53,644 (R$57,774 as of September 30, 2010).

Information per segment (consolidated)

a) Information per segment

The information per segment is based on the information used by Cosan’s management to evaluate the performance of the operating segments and take the decisions related to the investment of the financial resources. The Company has three segments: (i) sugar and ethanol (products resulting from the “CAA” activities; (ii) distribution of fuel and lubricants (activities performed by “CCL”); and (iii) logistics (operations performed by the indirect subsidiary “RUMO”). Each segment is administered individually in order to facilitate the serving of clients from different segments. The operating assets related to these segments are located solely in Brazil.

Below is a description of the Company’s operating segments.

The CAA segment’s main activities are the production and sale of a number of sugarcane byproducts, including the VHP sugar, ethanol, fuel, anhydride and hydrated ethanol. This segment also includes the activities related to the co-generation of power as from the sugarcane bagasse.

The CCL segment includes the distribution and sale of fuel and lubricants, mainly through the Esso chain located throughout Brazil, as well as convenience stores.

The RUMO segment includes the provision of logistics services involving transportation, warehousing and sugar port lifting to both the CAA segment and third parties.
