MATERIAL NOTICE

São Paulo, Brazil, February 1, 2017 – Ultrapar Participações S.A. hereby informs its shareholders and the market in general about the progress of the analysis conducted by the General Superintendence of the Brazilian Antitrust Authority (“SG”) related to the acquisition of Alesat Combustíveis S.A. by Ipiranga Produtos de Petróleo S.A.

On this date, SG’s analysis phase of the transaction was completed and the case must be submitted to CADE’s Court of Appeals in the next days, according to the procedures set forth in article 57, II of Law no. 12529/2011.

In accordance with the Technical Opinion issued by the SG, competition-related concerns were identified leading SG to submit its recommendation to present an objection (“impugnação”, technical legal term) of the transaction to CADE’s Court of Appeals, responsible for assessing the case and identifying any conditions to be complied with in order to eliminate said competition-related concerns.

The SG’s opinion is not binding and CADE’s Court of Appeals has the final decision on the case.

The Company will continue to pursue the approval of the transaction within the CADE’s Court of Appeals in order to eliminate the competition-related concerns pointed out by SG.
