Key Business Highlights – Q3 09/10 Sugar Market Overview
    Strong world prices and growth in Brazilian exports


          World sugar prices at their highest levels in 28 years

          Strong sugar prices, supported by forecasts of a continued imbalance between world supply and demand and by
          reduced inventory levels

                  poor crop in India and eastern Africa (Mozambique)

                  rains in Brazil, with reduced sugar content on sugarcane

          Domestic prices higher than international prices due to lower than expected Brazilian production of white/refined sugar

          Increase in Brazilian exports, with India as main destination


                                                                                 Guarani’s Sugar

    Higher prices and strong domestic demand during the year


          Significant appreciation of ethanol prices due to lower product output


          Continued growth in domestic consumption, supported mainly by the growth of the flex fuel fleet and strong car sales


          Limited impact of the 20% reduced blending (300,000 m³)


          Price increases in all other major markets, such as US and European Union

Sugarcane Crushing
    Heavy rains in Brazil and drought in Mozambique

          Sugarcane crushing reduced by 2.2% in 9M 09/10, mainly due to:

                  Drought in Mozambique, resulting in 0.2 million tons less sugarcane crushed

                  Heavy rains in Brazil resulting in 0.1 million tons less sugarcane crushed

          Current production of TRS reduced by 11.0% compared to 9M 08/09, mainly due to a decrease of 6.6% in the sugar content
          measured in TRS, although yields have increased by 14.8% to 93 ton/ha

          Sugarcane from 3rd parties represented 72.5% of the total crushing in 9M 09/10

Sugar and Ethanol Production
    Impact of poor sugar content on sugarcane due to rainfalls


          Sugar production fell by 15.2% in 9M 09/10 impacted by lower sugar content (TRS) in the sugarcane, while ethanol reduced by
          4.8%


          Priority on crystal and refined sugar due to higher margins. Refining operations to continue during the inter-crop

Net Debt
     At R$ 1.1 billion


           Net debt of R$1.1 billion as of December, 2009 representing 2.4% increase over previous quarter due to:

                     Higher working capital reflecting Guarani’s normal business cycle to increase inventories

           Net debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio stood at 4.5x on December, 2009 vs. 4.0x on September, 2009 due to seasonality of the
           business

           Short-term debt represented 55.4% of total net debt (excluding intercompany loans)

           Debt in foreign currencies totaled R$758.4 million, equivalent to 68.9% of total net debt

     Increased sugarcane crushing and sugar production capacity



        … to take advantage of higher sugar prices:




                  Increase of Tanabi’s crushing capacity from 1.4 million tons during this crop to 1.7 million tons for next crop and a
                  new sugar factory to allow the plant to produce 100,000 tons of sugar


                  São José plant to increase capacity to 3.2 million tons of sugarcane crushed with a 50,000 tons increase in sugar
                  production. Expected growth in energy sold to the grid


                  Increase of mechanical harvesting and planting capacity as well as to improve field yields


                  Increase of plantation area in Mozambique and irrigation to ensure sugarcane availability

     Investing to increase yields



           Total renovation of sugarcane fields by 2011/12 (15,900 ha)


           Extension of irrigation to a further 5,000 ha (total of 10,000 ha in 2012)


                   1,500 ha in 2010


                   1,600 ha in 2011

Sugar Market Outlook
     Prices supported by decrease in production and lower yields


                                Global demand may exceed production by 6 million tons in this world crop

                                Historically high prices to remain at least for 18 to 24 months

                                Future sugar prices to be adjusted according to weather at the start of the Brazilian crop and the next Indian crop starting
                                in October, 2010

                                Good prospects for white sugar prices with the expectation of a significant deficit both for refined and crystal sugars

Ethanol Market Outlook
     Strong consumption and prices expected for Q4 09/10 and next crop

                  Domestic market:

                           Ethanol prices supported by lower stocks than in previous crop

                           Strong flex fuel vehicle sales – currently 85% of all vehicle sold – will be a key driver for ethanol consumption growth



                  International market:

                           Higher prices in US and EU suggest a possible window for Brazilian exports from the beginning of next crop

                           Although world production has increased, supply will struggle to meet demand because of record sugar prices that favour

Outlook
     Guarani well positioned to seize market opportunities…



        … and benefit from the positive market scenario:



           Positive scenario for sugar prices for the 2010/11 crop due to higher demand than supply



           Positive scenario for ethanol prices in Q4 09/10 due to lower supply and strong demand in Brazil. Prices for
           next crop expected to be more stable, with more sugarcane derived to sugar production



           Increased volumes of own sugarcane



           Support from controlling shareholder Tereos for growth strategy
