MARKET ANNOUNCEMENT
 
 
Ultrapar is elected the most attractive company for investors in the award “Prêmio Destaque Agência Estado Empresas”
 
 
São Paulo, June 5th, 2014 –– Ultrapar Participações S.A. (BM&FBOVESPA:UGPA3 / NYSE:UGP) is pleased to inform that it was ranked first in the award “Prêmio Destaque Agência Estado Empresas” – as the most attractive company for investors. Ultrapar was also the winner in the Novo Mercado and Sustainability categories.
 
The award is conducted by Agência Estado, which is part of the newspaper group O Estado de São Paulo, and applies a methodology developed in partnership with Economatica.
 
With its well-recognized reliability, not only for the strength of the partnership between Agência Estado and Economatica, but also for the detailed evaluation criteria for ranking the companies, the award aims at recognizing the company with the greatest performance for shareholders, with an exclusive methodology, based on the combination of seven criteria: price/earnings, price/book value per share, oscillation, liquidity, volatility, dividend/book value and return on equity (ROE) variation.
 
In addition to the top ten companies, “Prêmio Destaque Agência Estado 2013” recognizes three special categories: Novo Mercado, Sustainability and Small Cap.
 
The award was granted in the fourth consecutive year of Ultrapar’s presence among the top ten companies, which reinforces the consistent planning and execution of Ultrapar’s strategy, and the constant evolution of its corporate governance, aimed at enduring the company and its growth and at value creation.
