A. Market Overview
 
According to UNICA, the sugarcane growers’ association, crushed cane volume in Brazil’s Central-South totaled 527.0 million tonnes through January 16, 2010, 5.5% up on the same period in the previous harvest. Given the heavy rainfall, the TSR (total sugar recoverable) fell by 7.23% over the previous season to 130.86kg/t. The production mix prioritized sugar production compared to the year before, with sugar and ethanol absorbing 43.17% and 56.83% of the TSR, respectively. As a result, sugar production totaled 28.4 million tonnes, 6.54% up year-on-year, hydrous ethanol output came to 16.8 billion liters, up by 3.7%, and anhydrous ethanol production stood at 6.1 billion liters, down by 28.7%. More than 70 mills were still crushing in the second week of January. UNICA’s initial estimates pointed to total crushed cane volume of 550 million tonnes, with production of 31.2 million tonnes of sugar and 26.3 billion liters of ethanol, numbers that were not achieved due to the exceptionally heavy rainfall. According to its latest publication, crushed volume could have reached 580 million tonnes under normal conditions.
 
On the other hand, Thailand’s harvest is improving substantially and crushed volume is expect to reach approximately 71 million tonnes, versus 67 million last year, with sugar output of 7.5 million tonnes, resulting in exports of close to 5 million tonnes, 8% up on the previous harvest. The European Union’s main sugar producers, Germany and France, expect higher output this year thanks to favorable weather conditions during planting, which encouraged the EU to issue export licenses totaling 1.35 million tonnes, slightly below the maximum limit of 1.375 million tonnes established by the WTO. It also approved exports of 500,000 tonnes outside these licenses, given that international prices were higher than in Europe, enabling producers to export without subsidies. According to UNICA, however, EU current excess production is result of sugar inventories accumulated over the past crops, when international prices for this product was below EU’s, therefore exports should be limited to the volumes established by the WTO.
 
In India, rainfall delayed the beginning of crushing in the state of Maharashtra and protests over the minimum sugarcane price in Uttar Pradesh resulted in larger volumes of cane being allocated to the production of gur and kandshari (types of raw brown sugar), as well as animal feed (in the previous harvest, 23% of cane went to the production of products other than sugar). Consequently, overall production estimates were once again revised down, this time to around 15 million tonnes, putting even more pressure on the country’s low inventories. In addition, fueled by low yields, domestic sugar prices continued to move up, reaching Rs3.311/quintal (US$709.5/t), 87.6% up on the same quarter last year.
 
In Russia, floundering inventories and expectations of lower yields (close to 30 tonnes of sugar beet per hectare, versus the record of 36.3 t/ha in the previous harvest), led the government to impose a new sugar import tariff band during the inter-harvest period. Between January and April 2010, the tariff will be US$140/t, whereas between May and July it will be variable and may reach as low as US$50/t if the NY#11 price

remains above 22 US¢/lb in the first three quarters of the year, substantially less than the US$165/t in the same period last year.
 
China has also been suffering. Some producing regions have been affected by prolonged drought while others have been hit by frost and blizzards, which not only damage the sugarcane, but also jeopardize sugar distribution, forcing the government to auction part of its strategic inventories. Nevertheless, domestic prices continue to increase and the country may be forced to resort to imports in 2010. Indonesia has also been impacted by higher domestic prices. Consequently, its government allocated import licenses for 500,000 tonnes of white sugar, expected to arrive between December 2009 and April 2010.
 
During the quarter, the major hedge funds, plus smaller funds and speculators, reduced their long sugar positions to an average of 190,000 lots, equivalent to 18% of all open contracts, 13.0% down year-on-year.
   
   
Despite the news from Thailand and the EU, sugar supply and demand forecasts remained unfavorable, pushing up international raw sugar prices by 12.8% over 2Q’10 and 99.6% over 3Q09 to 23.15 US¢/lb. Thanks to the period appreciation of the Real against the dollar, prices in Reais averaged 40.28 R$¢/lb, 53.0% up year-on-year and 5.4% more than the previous quarter. The first future maturity of the NY#11 contract, expiring in March 2010, closed 2009 at 26.95 US¢/lb, reflecting the need to advance supply and defer consumption.
 
International refined sugar averaged US$613.76/t in 3Q’10, 89.2% and 17.3% higher than the 3Q’09 and 2Q’10, respectively, outpacing the raw sugar upturn. The white premium averaged US$116.05/t in the period, thanks to increased demand for refined sugar.
 
The Real continued to appreciate in 3Q’10, averaging R$1.74/US$, 6.9% up on the quarter before, and closing at R$1.74/US$, versus R$1.78/US$ in September 2009 and R$2.34/US$ in December 2008.
 
Domestic crystal sugar prices (ESALQ) averaged R$57.65 per 50Kg bag, 21.7% up on the previous three months and 84.4% more than 3Q’09, reflecting low yields due to heavy harvest rainfall and booming sugar exports, which totaled 19.6 million tonnes between April and December, 21.7% up year-on-year.
 
3

 
   
     
   
Domestic hydrous ethanol prices (ESALQ) averaged R$0.957/liter in 3Q’10, 30% up on 3Q’09 and 30.4% more than the previous three months, while anhydrous prices averaged R$1.099/liter, 22.6% up year-on-year and 31.1% improvement over 2Q’10. These prices reflect flagging inter-harvest inventories due to the continuing acceleration of demand (in turn due to growth in vehicle sales despite the financial crisis) and reduced supply due to the heavy rainfall.
 
The window for ethanol exports to Europe and the United States (directly or under the Caribbean Agreement, which allows Caribbean ethanol exports without the ¢US$54/gallon) remains closed, chiefly due to the profitable domestic market price, making exports substantially less competitive.
     
   
     
   
According to Brazil’s National Petroleum Agency (ANP), the average hydrous ethanol/gasoline price parity (weighted by the size of the fleet) closed 3Q’10 at 71.1%. In early January, the parity was above 70% in the state of São Paulo, the country’s biggest consumption center, leading consumers with flex-fuel vehicles to opt for C gasoline (a blend of 75% A gasoline and 25% anhydrous ethanol) instead of hydrous ethanol, thereby increasing the consumption of anhydrous. Given this scenario, and seeking to minimize the impact on inter-harvest ethanol supply, in January 2010, the Brazilian government reduced the ratio of
 
4

 
   
anhydrous ethanol in the C gasoline blend from 25% to 20% for February, March and April 2010, which should reduce period demand for this product by around 300 million liters.
 
According to Anfavea, the auto manufacturers’ association, new flex-fuel vehicle sales totaled 690,500 units in 3Q’10, accounting for 86.6% of new car sales. In calendar year 2009, flex-fuel vehicle sales were 13.9% higher than in 2008.
     
   
     
   
According to the ANP (National Oil Agency), diesel sales volume in October and November, 2009 (December data are not available yet) reached 8.1 billion liters, 5.2% higher compared to the same months of 2008. Gasoline A fuel volume also showed a slight increase of 4.3% in such period, reaching 3.3 billion liters. Ethanol showed the highest demand increase, due to an increased flex-fuel fleet, reaching 2.7 billion liters, 13.7% higher than Oct and Nov/09.

In 3Q’10, Cosan crushed 14.2 million tons of sugarcane, out of which approximately 41% of its own and 59% coming from suppliers, with 68% of mechanic harvesting. Despite the unseasonal rain levels, which lowered the number of days available for crushing this year to 70% of use of the installed capacity, as well as the change in fiscal year, the volume of sugarcane processed in the accumulated up to 3Q’10 shows a growth of 18.2% in relation to the compared period, especially due to the merger of NovAmérica. Also, as an effect of excessive rain, the TRS quantity obtained in 3Q’10 was 8.3% lower than that of the same quarter in the 2008/09 crop, resulting in a production of 936 thousand
 
5

 
   
tons of sugar, out of which 70.7% was raw sugar and 29.3% was refined sugar, and 531 million liters of ethanol, out of which 42.9% was anhydrous ethanol and 57.1% was hydrated ethanol.
       
   
C. Operating Performance
       
   
(i)
In view of the alteration of the fiscal year of 2009, which had an earlier ending, on March 31, 2009, the periods related to 3Q’09 and 3Q’10 are displaced, that is, 3Q’09 comprises the months of November and December, 2008, and of January, 2009, while 3Q’10 comprises the months of October, November and December, 2009;
       
   
(ii)
The depreciation presented in the statements and analysis of result had its criteria changed for this fiscal year, to reflect the depreciation included in the COGS (Cost of Goods Sold) and in operating expenses (SG&A), as opposed to the previous fiscal year, when depreciation was shown based on production, that is, by entry into production of the goods and services provided, in addition to the depreciation assessed in operating expenses. It must be stressed that the depreciation included in operating expenses did not undergo any change of criterion, only production depreciation;
       
   
(iii)
CCL only started to be consolidated in December, 2008, so CCL figures disclosed for 3Q’09 and YTD’09 comprises only the months of December, 2008 and January, 2009. In view of the fact that these periods cannot be compared and on an extraordinary basis, the comparison of 3Q’10 CCL results will be made with 2Q’10 this quarter;
       
   
(iv)
As already commented in previous letters, NovAmérica’s results started to be consolidated as from June, 2009, so there is no comparison between the results of 3Q’10 and 3Q’09.

Net Revenues
     
 
The net revenues amounted to R$3.8 billion in the quarter. The major contribution to such increase came from CCL, with revenues of R$2.7 billion in the period, representing 71.0% of net invoicing. Among the fuel, diesel accounted for 46.0% of revenues, followed by gasoline with 43.5% and ethanol with 9.5%. Sales of lubricants represented 3.8% of the restated net revenues. In CAA, sugar and ethanol accounted for 63.0% and 28.3% of the total revenues, respectively. Sales to the foreign market represented 43.9% of CAA’s net revenues in the quarter, versus 60.3% in the previous period, mainly due to sugar sales increase in the domestic market as a result of the NovAmérica merger.
 
     
 
CAA - Sugar
 
The 39.4% growth in the sugar revenue, comparing this year’s quarter to the same quarter in the previous year, going from R$540.6 million in 3Q’09 to R$753.8 million in 3Q’10 is a result of the greater volume sold (9.7% higher in 3Q’10 than in 3Q’09) and the increase in average unit price (27.2% higher in 3Q’10 than in 3Q’09). In addition, sales of sugar
 
7

 
   
by NovAmérica are more concentrated in the domestic market, raising the share of this market, in which average prices obtained were 55.4% higher than that of the international market, still reflecting price fixations previously established.
 
     
 
In the foreign market, the average sugar price, of R$722/ton, represented an appreciation of 7.9% when compared to 3Q’09. As explained in previous letters, sugar revenue in the foreign market reflects the results of prices fixed in previous periods. In this quarter, shipped volumes reflect fixations established throughout the last 6 months, presenting an average price of ¢US$17.74/lb. On the other hand, sales in the domestic market, the share of which went from 10.2% of the volume sold in 3Q’09 to 31.9% in the current quarter, almost immediately reflected market prices.
     
   
CAA – Ethanol
     
 
In spite of prices being 7.3% higher when we compare 3Q’10 to 3Q’09, ethanol revenues (R$338.3 million in the quarter) were 7.1% lower than the obtained in 3Q’09. This negative outcome is mainly due to reduction in volumes sold, dropping from 438.1 million liters in 3Q’09 to 379.2 million liters in 3Q’10 and also due to the mix of sales between the domestic and foreign market, the latter having prices significantly below in the compared quarters, due to export contracts executed in the beginning of the fiscal year, at prices lower than current ones. Such effects were partially offset by internal market prices, which were 30.2% higher when compared to 3Q’10 and 3Q’09 quarters (R$771/m3 in 3Q’09 versus R$1.004/m3 in 3Q’10).
 
8

 
 
 
   
CAA – Other Products and Services
 
Revenues with other products and services showed an increase of 71.8%, from R$60.7 million to R$104.3 million.
     
   
     
   
Cogeneration
 
Revenues of energy cogeneration units totaled R$19.4 million in 3Q’10 versus R$11.5 million in 3Q’09. This variation between the compared quarters basically reflects the commissioning of the Costa Pinto and Rafard mills and the merger of the NovAmérica results, through Tarumã and Maracaí.
 
It is worth mentioning that, in the middle of the 3Q’10, the cogeneration units completed the deliveries of all volumes contracted through energy auctions and bilateral contracts to this crop, therefore the exceeding energy was commercialized on a spot basis, in which prices averaged R$16/MWh, lowering this quarter’s average prices when comparing to past quarters.

CCL – Fuels
     
 
 
 
  Revenues from the fuel distribution business increased R$313.8 million, or 14.1% comparing the 3Q’10 to the 2Q’10. With the recovery in ethanol prices, exceeding, in many Brazilian states the 70% parity, part of the flex fuel car owners stopped fueling their cars with ethanol and shifted to gasoline instead. Therefore, the higher revenues from CCL fuels distribution business was result of (i) R$163.8 million from the 18.0% increase in sales of gasoline and (ii) R$45.9 million from the 24.2% recovery in ethanol prices.  
     
     
   
CCL – Lubricants
     
 
In the lubricants business, sales were lower than those in 2Q’10 by 15.8%, or R$27.0 million, affected by the following factors:
 
Þ    Reduction of R$ 18.1 million, caused by the 10.6% drop in the volume sold which was, chiefly, result of lower demand, reflecting typical seasonality of year-end sales;
 
Þ    Due to a lower participation of added value products in the sales mix and punctual prices reductions in 3Q’10, unit prices were reduced by 5.8%
 
10

 
   
     
   
Cost of Goods Sold
     
   
     
   
The large increment in the cost of goods sold reflects the consolidation of the distribution of fuels and lubricants business, that increased COGS by R$ 2,506.8 million in this quarter, compared to R$1,511.1 million in 3Q’09.

Sugar and Ethanol cost of products sold showed an increase of 31%, or R$196.7 million, when compared with costs from 3Q’09. The main reasons for such increase in the COGS are: (i) a 9.7% increase in the volume of sugar sold in the compared period, (ii) increase in the share
 
11

 
   
of sugar in the domestic market, which has higher value added, and (iii) origination of sugar especially for sales in the domestic market.
 
Other factors negatively influenced the costs of products sold that are common to sugar and ethanol; in short, such effects were:
     
   
Þ   In view of increase in sugar prices both domestic and foreign markets and also due to recovery of ethanol in the domestic market, the TRS price, according to Consecana’s formula, which defines the compensation of suppliers and land leases, raised by 23.1%, going from R$0.2653 in 3Q’09 to R$0.3267 in 3Q’10;
     
   
Þ   Increase in the costs of production and processing of sugar and ethanol due to poor yield of sucrose (TSR), which dropped from 138.17kg per ton to 129.14kg per ton of sugarcane in 3Q’10, that is, 6.5% shorter than the previous fiscal year, due to excessive rain in the period between harvests;
     
   
Þ   Offsetting part of the negative impacts above, cutting, loading and transportation (CCT) costs presented the effects of the consolidation of the mechanization process, which covered 64.5% of the areas harvested up to December 31, 14% higher than the 2008/09 harvest. This category of CCT was R$4.78/ton of cane lower than the traditional cutting process, which is carried out with the burning of sugarcane straw.
     
   
CCL
     
 
CCL’s COGS totaled R$2,506.8 million in 3Q’10, representing a 12.5% increase when compared to 2Q’10. In unit terms, costs varied by 2.4% in the period, which increase was mainly due to (i) the increase of 21.4% in ethanol costs in the compared period, reflecting the price recovery of such product at the mills and (ii) the increase in the commercialized volume of gasoline. Part of such increases was compensated by an improvement in the cost of lubricants costs, a reduction of 4.9% in the period, reflecting a sales mix with a lower participation of value added products.
 
Gross Profit
 
With these results, 3Q’10 showed a gross profit of R$460.0 million, an increase of 21.7% compared to the same period in the previous year, with a 12.1% margin. In CAA, ethanol continues to operate with low margins, of 7.1% versus 16.6% of the same comparison period, whereas sugar showed a positive margin of 31.5%, benefiting, in part, from higher prices in the international market and greater participation of sugar sold in the domestic market. In CCL, in turn, the unit gross margin (R$/m3) of the lubricants division remained as the most profitable, followed by the gasoline margin.

Selling Expenses
 
CAA’s selling expenses in 3Q’10 were 17.7% higher compared to 3Q’09, mainly due to NovAmérica’s merger (R$23.0  million), which did not have its results consolidated at CAA in 3Q’09. Excluding these effects, selling expenses decreased 6.8% (R$88.0 million in 3Q’10 versus R$94.4 million in 3Q’09), justified by a smaller volume of sugar exported in 3Q’10 as opposed to 3Q’09 (726.4 thd ton versus 604.4 thd ton, respectively).

Increase of 14.5% in CCL’s Selling expenses, as opposed to 2Q’10, refer mainly to marketing expenses, aiming to increasing brand exposure and ethanol visibility, as well as increase in expenses with maintenance and repairs expenses, to improve the image of service stations.
 
General and Administrative Expenses
 
General and administrative expenses of R$117.9 million, representing 3.1% of the net revenues in 3Q’10, showed a significant increase (63.1%) in relation to the R$72.3 million of 3Q’09, mainly due to the incoming of CCL expenses (R$26.4 million) and NovAmérica (R$6.6 million). Excluding CCL and NovAmérica impacts, general and administrative expenses grew 44% (R$84.9 million in 3Q’10 versus R$72.3 million in 3Q’09).
 
The growth of general and administrative expenses was mainly leveraged by the following factors: (i) expenses related to the adoption of book-entry of Stock Options accounting, which started to be recognized only in this fiscal year, as per Technical Opinion CPC10; (ii) referring to the provisioning of amounts payable on account of variable compensation of the management and employees, in view of better results verified, and (iii) higher expenditures with consulting services, aimed at projects such as the CAN and EVA implementation.
     
 
Regarding CCL, administrative expenses increase of R$ 12.9 million this quarter, as opposed to 2Q’10. This increase is mainly due to non-recurring effects of expenditures with consulting services, occurred in the quarter, provision for Profit Sharing (PLR) and bonus, as well as a positive impact due to the reversion of the provision for contingencies, occurred in 2Q’10 but not repeated in 3Q’10.

EBITDA
 
Depreciations and amortizations of R$149.7 million, 110.5% higher than those registered in 3Q’09 (R$71.1 million), are mainly due to the changed in the criteria determining the depreciation adjusted to EBITDA calculations, as previously mentioned. In 3Q’09, the criteria for recognizing depreciation in the result was based on production and, with the end of the productive harvest, acknowledged amounts were shorter. With the new criteria adopted, part of the depreciations and amortizations of the production remain in the inventory, and are only included in the result as the products are sold. Thus, excluding this non-cash effect of operating costs and expenses, the Company showed an EBITDA of R$490.4 million, versus R$340.4 million in the same period of the previous year.
 
Out of this amount, R$421.7 million were generated by CAA, and the highest impact (R$211.6 million) is a result of the Company’s decision to adhere to the Refis Program, as explained later in section F. CCL’s contribution was of R$68.7 million, compared to R$86.3 million in the previous quarter, mostly affected by non-recurring expenses stated in Selling Expenses, General and Administrative expenses above.
     
   
     
   
Financial Results
 
The net financial result was negative by R$78.3 million in 3Q’10 as opposed to R$159.2 million in the same quarter of the previous year. From this negative result, R$128.1 million are due to less expenses with net exchange variation, in view of the exposure of assets and liabilities in foreign currency and considering that the Real appreciated only 2% in relation to the dollar in 3Q’10, as opposed to the 21% appreciation in 3Q’09.
 
The derivatives result was positive by R$ 18.0 million in 3Q’10 (R$125.0 million in 3Q’09), represented by a loss of R$33.9 million with commodities derivatives, compensated by gains of R$ 51.9 million with currency derivatives.
 
14

 
   
Interest on Financial debt totaled R$111.3 million this quarter, as opposed to R$95.2 million in the same quarter of the previous year. This increase is mainly due to the indebtedness of Cosan Alimentos (former NovAmérica), which was only consolidated as of June, 2009, and because the indebtedness assumed to acquire CCL impacted only two months of 3Q’09

EBITDAH
 
The EBITDAH for the quarter was of R$508.4 million, as opposed to R$465.3 million in the same quarter last year. Hedge results of these periods, though, cannot be compared, since, as from 4Q’09, according to changes in the Brazilian accounting policies, the results from derivatives began to reflect the adjustments to the portfolio of contracted and open derivative positions at market value in the period, which is already performed under US GAAP. Therefore, the results from derivatives no longer reflects the amount of gains or losses with derivatives associated with the volume of operating revenue in the period, but rather the adjustment of open derivative positions to their fair value independent of the objected being hedged by the derivatives.
 
The result of R$508.4 million in the quarter was affected by a net positive derivative effect of R$18 million, as demonstrated below:

Net Profit
 
Cosan ended 3Q’10 with a net profit of R$167.1 million, as opposed to R$ 5.2 million in the same quarter of the previous year. This result was strongly impacted by the appropriation of Refis gains, in the amount of R$211.6 million, and negatively affected by reductions in the sales volumes of sugar and ethanol.
     
   
     
   
D. Financial Situation
     
   
The Company closed 3Q’10 with gross financial debt of R$5,164.9 million, 1.8% down on the R$5,258.3 recorded at the end of 2Q’10. In November 2009, the Company implemented several measures to improve its debt profile, including full payment of the promissory notes, 2009 senior notes, bank credit certificates and debentures, the last two resulting from the acquisition of NovAmérica,  and the contracting of (i) US$ 430 million in export pre-payments maturing in 5 years, (ii) US$ 100 million in export credit notes (NCE) maturing in 3 years; (iii) R$ 300 million in export credit certificates (CCE) maturing in 2 years. In addition, the BNDES (Brazilian Development Bank) disbursed part of the funding for Jataí and Gasa.

Also at the end 3Q’10, Cosan’s cash position totaled R$864.1 million, reducing its net debt to R$4,300.8 or 3.0 times EBITDA in the last 12 months. This EBITDA is calculated using CCL’s and CAA’s last 12 month EBITDA and NovAmérica’s annualized last 7 month EBITDA.
 
The debt profile improved substantially, given that of the 17.2% of the total corresponding to short-term debt, approximately R$400 million was in advances on foreign exchange contracts (ACC) and in part of exports prepayment, both products linked to the Company’s exports. A further R$90 million also classified as short-term referred to the debt with the IFC, which the Company decided to prepay due to its high cost, given that a portion is linked to the Group’s operating cash flow. In addition, we preferred to initiate new negotiations with IFC in order to create a new loan agreement that properly reflect the Company’s current financial and ownership situation.
     
   
E. Investments
     
   
Cosan totaled R$ 413.9 million in its investment flow for 3Q’10. Out of the total amount of investments, R$ 401.0 million were invested in Capex, that is, investments in fixed assets. The substantial difference when one analyses the total investment flow in 3Q’10 as opposed to 3Q’09, is the fact that, in the same period of the previous year, the amount was disbursed for CCL acquisition.
 
The operating Capex of R$210.1 million is related to the maintenance of the sugarcane plantations, industrial mills and to several projects to improve the efficiency of already existing assets. This quarter we accelerated expansion projects of sugar plants that, when concluded, will raise our sugar production capacity by 400 thd ton/year.

Capex on 3Q’10’s is 7.3% lower than the same period in the previous year, especially due to the slowdown of disbursements in greenfield projects that were about to be concluded. On the other hand, operating projects significantly increased, as described below.
 
The planting in 3Q’09 was reduced to adapt cane levels to the installed capacity. In 3Q’10, investments in the renewal of the planting were retaken, increasing the invested amount to R$ 48.2 million, throughout 8,400 hectares. This amount also includes the soil preparation in areas not yet planted.
 
Inter-harvest maintenance investments were 19% lower than in the previous year, even with the inclusion of the NovAmérica units, since 3Q’09 comprises months from November to January, and this last month is typically strong in inter-harvest maintenance.
 
Several CAA projects used up R$ 104.7 million, and have the purpose of expanding crushing capacity at existing units, increasing capacity at sugar plants, internal infrastructure and environmental and processes improvements.
 
CCL’s capex in 3Q’10 was of R$ 20.5 million, 166% higher than in the previous quarter. The main investments were concentrated in the infrastructure area, aiming at supporting the company’s growth plans, such as the reopening of the Belém and Governador Valadares terminals, and the beginning of the construction of the Alto Taquari terminal. Additionally, investments were made in image improvement and in the expansion of the Esso network gas stations chain.
 
Investments in power cogeneration were of R$93.5 million in the period, 9.6% lower than the same period in the previous fiscal year; especially due to the current stage of the works in progress, if compared to the works in the conclusion stage as of 3Q’09, which used up a high amount of resources.
 
The capex for Cosan’s greenfield projects was of R$97.5 million in the period, associated with the stage of conclusion stage of the Jataí (Goiás) and Caarapó (Mato Grosso do Sul) projects.
 
In 3Q’10, the CCL capex shows investments of R$ 20.5 million in improvements to service stations, terminals expansion and renovation, and interventions in the lubricants plant. The 165% increase, compared to the previous quarter, can be explained by the retaking of the works pace and service stations branding.

F. Effects of the Program for Paying Tax debts in Installments (“Refis”)
     
   
During the 3Q’10, the Company adhered to the program for paying tax debts in installments, set by the Brazilian Government in accordance with law No. 11.941/09 and Provisional Measure MP 470/09. In the scope of the program, Cosan had reductions in contingent tax liabilities, mainly related to the IPI Tax, which generated a benefit in the quarter, recognized in the entry of other operating revenues, in the amount of R$ 211.6 million. Additionally, this program also enabled the company to use income tax losses credits in the amount of approximately R$ 204 million, to reduce tax obligations that were previously being the subject contest of dispute by the Company. This last benefit, in spite of not impacting the result under the accounting point of view, benefited the Company, in the sense that the mentioned tax credits of the Income Tax are used only as the Company profits according to tax criteria, and are limited to 30% of the same in each annual period.
     
   
G. Material Facts
     
   
In November 2009, the Company’s first greenfield project began operations in the city of Jataí, in Goiás state. With a crushing capacity of 4 million tonnes p.a., the Jataí plant is considered to be among the most modern in Brazil and the world, thanks to its exceptionally high level of automation. Also on this quarter, the Caarapó greenfield Project, which Cosan assumed with the acquisition of NovAmérica, started operating.
 
On November 24th, the Company acquired a 26.7% of participation in TEAS, an ethanol port terminal in Santos, for the amount of R$20 million, becoming the owner of 66.67% of this society’s total and voting capital
 
On December 24, 2009, Rumo Logística notified ALL – América Latina Logística S.A. that as of that date the long-term agreements entered into by the two parties in March 2009 were valid and executable in all their terms and conditions, in the form set forth therein. The object of the agreements include the transportation by ALL of bulk sugar and other byproducts, with the expansion of the parties’ operational capacity through investments of around R$ 1.2 billion in rights of way, yards, rail cars, locomotives and terminals to be realized by Rumo in ALL’s network. By January 20, 2010, Rumo had already transported approximately 230,000 tonnes of sugar through ALL’s network.

In December 2009, Cosan and Amyris announced a partnership to implement Amyris’ technology in one of the Group’s plants to produce high added-value biofuels, involving investments of up to R$ 50 million. In addition to sugar and ethanol, the unit will also be capable of producing a chemical compound resulting from the fermentation of sugarcane juice and yeast. Both companies are still studying the details regarding the implementation and funding of these operations. For Cosan, investments in the development of new renewable energy sources such as biofuels are strategic, and the partnership with Amyris underlines this commitment.

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, 2009, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009 and the condensed consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss) for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2009. 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, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the eleven-month period then ended not presented herein and in our report dated June 19, 2009, 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, 2009, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

1.
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 US$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 consolidated financial statements have as their primary activity the production of ethanol and sugar, and the marketing and distribution of fuel and lubricants in Brazil. They are constantly pursuing opportunities to capitalize on the growing demand for ethanol and sugar in the world. They are focused on increasing production capacity through expansion of existing facilities, development of greenfield projects and, as opportunities present themselves, acquisitions.

Cosan S.A. was the predecessor to Cosan and was the primary operating business in the consolidated group prior to a reorganization in August, 2007. In contemplation of an initial public offering on August 1, 2007, Aguassanta Participações S.A. and Usina Costa Pinto S.A. Açúcar e Álcool, controlling shareholders of Cosan S.A. and both indirectly controlled by Mr. Rubens Ometto Silveira Mello, the controlling shareholder, contributed their common shares of Cosan S.A. to Cosan in exchange for 96,332,044 of our class B1 common shares. The common shares contributed to the Company by Aguassanta Participações S.A. and Usina Costa Pinto S.A. Açúcar e Álcool consisted of 96,332,044 common shares of Cosan, representing 51.0% of Cosan S.A. outstanding common shares. As a result of this reorganization Cosan Ltd. became the controlling shareholder of Cosan S.A.. The reorganization was accounted for as a reorganization of companies under common control in a manner similar to a pooling of interests.

On August 17, 2007, the Company concluded its global offering of 111,678,000 class A common shares which resulted in gross proceeds in the amount of US$1,171,027. As a result of the global offering, Cosan’s shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and on the São Paulo Stock Exchange (Bovespa) by BDR (Brazilian Depositary Receipts).

The costs directly attributable to the offering were charged against the gross proceeds of the offering in a total amount of US$52,594. Therefore the net proceeds related to the IPO totaled US$1,118,433.

Operations (Continued)

On April 23, 2008, Cosan S.A. entered into an agreement with ExxonMobil International Holding B.V., or “Exxon”, for the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Esso Brasileira de Petróleo Ltda. and its subsidiaries (“Essobrás”), a distributor and seller of fuels and producer and seller of lubricants and specialty petroleum products of ExxonMobil in Brazil. On December 1, 2008 the Company completed the acquisition.  On January 16, 2009 the Company changed the corporate name of Essobrás to Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A. (“Cosan CL”).

On July 17, 2008, the Board Directors approved the modification of the fiscal year end from April 30 to March 31 of each year. Therefore the income statement and cash flow information presented in these financial statements lack comparison to the prior period represented by the nine-month period ended January 31, 2009.

On August 28, 2008, Cosan S.A. announced the incorporation of a new affiliate named Radar Propriedades Agrícolas S.A. (“Radar”), which engages in farm real estate investments in Brazil by identifying and acquiring rural properties likely to experience an increase in value and acquiring them for later leasing and/or sale. The initial capital contribution was US$185,000, of which US$35,000 was invested by Cosan (18.92%) and US$150,000 by another shareholder (81.08%). On August 25, 2009, an additional capital contribution of US$33,262, was approved, of which US$6,293 (18.92%) was invested by Cosan and the remainder by the other shareholder. On December 15, 2009, an additional capital contribution of US$8,911, was approved, of which US$1,659 (18.92%) was invested by Cosan and the remainder by the other shareholder.

On April 09, 2009, Cosan S.A. entered into an agreement with Rezende Barbosa S.A. Administração e Participações (“Rezende Barbosa”) to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of Teaçu Armazéns Gerais S.A. (“Teaçu”). Teaçu operates a port terminal concession in the city of Santos. See further discussion regarding this acquisition at Note 3.

On June 17, 2009, Cosanpar Participações S.A. (“Cosanpar”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cosan S.A. sold its equity interest in Jacta Participações S.A. (“Jacta”), a distributor of aviation fuel that was acquired in the Essobrás acquisition, to Shell Brasil Ltda. for US$59,234 cash. The results of operations of Jacta were recorded in the fuel distribution segment. The carrying value of the net assets sold was US$40,084, which resulted in a gain net of taxes of US$19,150.

Operations (Continued)

On June 18, 2009, Cosan S.A. entered into an agreement with Rezende Barbosa to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of Curupay S.A. Participações (“Curupay”).  The principal investment of Curupay was 100% of the outstanding shares of Cosan Alimentos S.A. (former Nova América S.A. Agroenergia). Cosan Alimentos S.A. (“Cosan Alimentos”) is a producer of sugar, ethanol and energy co-generation which also operates in trading and logistics. See further discussion regarding this acquisition at Note 3.

On November 24, 2009, Cosan S.A. entered into an agreement with Crystalsev Comércio e Representação Ltda and Plínio Nastari Consultoria e Participações Ltda to acquire 26,7% of the outstanding shares of TEAS Terminal Exportador de Álcool de Santos S.A. (“TEAS”). As a result, this increased its ownership percentage from 40,0% to 66,7% of the TEAS’s capital. TEAS operates a port terminal concession in the city of Santos. See further discussion regarding this acquisition at Note 3.

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, 2009, 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 financial statements should be read in conjunction with Cosan`s annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

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

The exchange rate of the Brazilian real (R$) to the US$ was R$1.7412=US$ 1.00 at December 31, 2009 and R$2.3152=US$1.00 at March 31, 2009.

Presentation of the consolidated financial statements (Continued)

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. Recently issued accounting standards

FASB Accounting Standards Codification

In September 2009, the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) became the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) for nongovernmental entities, except for certain FASB Statements not yet incorporated into ASC. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for registrants. The authoritative guidance mentioned in these financial statements includes the applicable ASC reference.

Subsequent Events

We adopted ASC 855, Subsequent Events, which established general accounting standards and disclosure for subsequent events, during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2009. In accordance with ASC 855, the Company has evaluated subsequent events through January 31, 2010, the date the financial statements were issued.

Noncontrolling Interests

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted new accounting guidance ASC 810, which changed the accounting for and the reporting of an entity’s minority ownership.  Such minority ownership, previously referred to as minority interest, is now referred to as noncontrolling interests. The adoption of this guidance resulted in the reclassification of amounts previously attributable to minority interest and classified in the mezzanine outside of shareholders’ equity, to a separate component of stockholders’ equity titled “Noncontrolling Interests” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and statement of changes in equity.

c. Recently issued accounting standards (Continued)

Noncontrolling Interests (Continued)

Additionally, net income and comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interests are shown separately from consolidated net income and comprehensive income in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and statements of changes in equity. Prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation as required by the authoritative guidance.

New Accounting Pronouncements

The following accounting standards have been issued, but as of December 31, 2009 are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Company.

SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (“SFAS No. 166”)

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, which removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity (“QSPE”) from SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities-a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125. The QSPE concept had initially been established to facilitate off-balance sheet treatment for certain securitizations. SFAS No. 166 also removes the exception from applying FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN No. 46(R)”), to QSPEs. SFAS No. 166 has not been incorporated into ASC and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009, or April 1, 2010 for Cosan. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 166 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS No. 167”)

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, which amends FIN 46(R) to among other things, require an entity to qualitatively rather than quantitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). This determination should be based on whether the entity has 1) the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of the VIE and 2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Other key changes include: the requirement for an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary, the criteria for determining whether service provider or decision maker contracts are variable interests, the consideration of kick-out and removal rights in determining whether an entity is a VIE, the types of events that trigger the reassessment of whether an entity is a VIE and the expansion of the disclosures previously required under FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R), Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises) about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities. SFAS No. 167 has not been incorporated into ASC and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009, or April 1, 2010 for Cosan. The Company does not believe the adoption of FAS No. 166 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

SFAS No. 168, FASB Codification and the Hierarchy of GAAP (“SFAS No. 168”)

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, which identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP. SFAS No. 168 replaces SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“the Codification”) as the single source of authoritative guidance recognized by the FASB. Under the Codification, all guidance carries an equal level of authority. SFAS No. 168 has not been incorporated into ASC and is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, or the quarter ending September 30, 2009 for the Company. We adopted this guidance effective July 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Acquisitions

a. Teaçu Armazéns Gerais S.A.

On April 9, 2009, Cosan S.A., through its 90% owned subsidiary, Copsapar Participações S.A., which owns 100% of Novo Rumo Logística S.A. (“Novo Rumo”), acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Teaçu Armazéns Gerais S.A. (“Teaçu”) from Rezende Barbosa S.A. Administração e Participações (“Rezende Barbosa”) for $52,985 cash and issuance of 90,736,131 shares of Novo Rumo, equivalent to 28.82% of its share capital. Teaçu holds a port concession in the city of Santos and operates a terminal dedicated to exporting sugar and other agricultural products. This acquisition combines the Santos port operations previously held separately by Cosan S.A. and Teaçu.

As a result of this transaction, Cosan S.A. reduced its indirect share ownership in Novo Rumo to 64.06%.

The acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred totaled $150,501, which consisted of the following:

Cash
    52,985  
Common stock at estimated fair value
    97,516  
Total
    150,501  

The fair value of the 90,736,131 common shares issued was provisionally determined at the acquisition date and is being reviewed in order to finalize the purchase price.

Acquisitions (Continued)

a. Teaçu Armazéns Gerais S.A. (Continued)

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. The company is in the process of obtaining valuations of certain intangible assets and fixed assets; thus, the provisional measurements of intangible assets, goodwill and deferred income tax assets are subject to change.

Description
     
Property, plant and equipment
    40,224  
Inventories

Other assets
    29,012

Net assets acquired
    48,170  
Provisional purchase price, net of cash acquired
    150,222  
Goodwill
    102,052  

The provisional goodwill of $102,052 arising from the acquisition, which will be substantially deductible for tax purposes, consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the port operations of Cosan S.A. and Teaçu.  The provisional goodwill was assigned to the sugar segment.

The amounts of Teaçu’s revenue and earnings included in Cosan S.A.’s consolidated income statement for the nine-month period ended January 31, 2009, and the revenue and earnings of the combined entity had the acquisition date been May 1, 2008, are:

Acquisitions (Continued)

b. Curupay S.A. Participações

On June 18, 2009, Cosan S.A. acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Curupay S.A. Participações from Rezende Barbosa, through the issuance of 44,300,389 common shares valued at $7.25 per share (fair value at the acquisition date) and a total purchase price of US$321,087.  The assets acquired include the non-controlling interest in Novo Rumo representing 28.82% of its outstanding shares which were issued in the Teaçu acquisition, and 100% of the outstanding shares of two operating companies, Nova América S.A. Trading and Cosan Alimentos (collectively referred to as “Nova América”). Nova América is a producer of sugar, ethanol and energy co-generation and also operates in trading and logistics.

With the acquisition of the noncontrolling interest of Novo Rumo, Cosan S.A. increased its share ownership in Novo Rumo to 92.88%. This transaction was a change in ownership interest without a loss of control and accounted for as a transaction in shareholders’ equity of Cosan S.A.

The following table summarizes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in relation to Nova América.  These amounts are preliminary as valuations of certain intangible assets, fixed assets and other assets and liabilities are currently in process.

Description

Taxes (Continued)

On May 27, 2009 and October 13, 2009, Law 11.941 and MP 470 were approved by the Brazilian government creating a tax recovery program, permitting the taxpayer to settle its federal tax debts, previous recovery programs, and other federal taxes under court discussions with discounts on previously charged penalties and interest and in installments.

Additionally, it was permitted for the taxpayer to offset a portion of the penalties and interest due with its balance of income tax loss carry forwards. MP470 also allowed taxpayers to use tax losses to offset the principal balance related to IPI taxes (credit premium, note 9).

During the third quarter of 2009, Cosan S.A. and subsidiaries joined the tax recovery program and the following effects were recorded:

Taxes payable and recorded contingencies
    423,753  
Gain on tax recovery programs
    (121,554 )
Tax loss carryfowards
    (117,105 )
Installments paid
    (6,425 )
Interest
    2,053  
Payable as of December 31, 2009
    180,722  

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 recorded as noncurrent taxes payable, is as follows:

Balance at March 31, 2009
    53,995  
Accrued interest on unrecognized tax benefit
    1,933  
Effect of foreign currency translation
    17,800  
Settlements
    (37 )
Balance at December 31, 2009
    73,691  

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.

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.

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 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, 2009 and March 31, 2009 amounted to US$111,756 and US$113,877, respectively, and are classified as Other non-current assets.

Estimated liability for legal proceedings and labor claims and commitments (Continued)

Judicial deposits recorded by Cosan under non-current assets, amounting to US$104,527 at December 31, 2009 (US$73,975 at March 31, 2009) 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. Judicial deposits include US$66,601 related to exposures of Cosan CL prior to its acquisition by Cosan. If the Company prevails in the defense of these exposures, these related judicial deposits must be refunded to the seller.

The tax contingencies as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009 are described as follows:

   
December 31, 2009
   
March 31, 2009
 
Credit premium – IPI

Other
    61,419       60,524  
      374,656       430,342  

On May 27, 2009, the paragraph 1st and 3rd of Brazilian Law No 9718/98 that regulated the collection of PIS and Cofins (federal tax contributions) on exchange variation and other financial income was revoked by Law No 11941/09. The Company is evaluating its ongoing judicial demands related to the legal obligations not paid related to the increase in the calculation basis of PIS and Cofins. Once the absence of errors or flaws in the ongoing demands is confirmed, the Company will revaluate the maintenance of the provision for the respective legal obligations in its financial statements.

Cosan S.A. and its subsidiaries opted to settle tax related claims in installments as provided by Brazilian Law No 11.941/09 and in MP 470/09. The Company and its subsidiaries used accumulated tax losses to pay the related fines and interest. Consequently there was a full reduction of the claims related to IPI tax credit, as well as the installment payment of other federal taxes, that were recorded as Taxes Payable (note 6).

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 the Company. 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.

The amount is subject to interest and inflation adjustment by an official index. Lawyers fees in the amount of US$18,783 relating to this suit have been recorded in General and administrative expenses in 2007 and remain unpaid at December 31, 2009.

At December 31, 2009, these receivables totaled US$190,343 and US$22,841 (US$139,700 and US$16,764 at March 31, 2009), corresponding to related suit and lawyers’ fees, respectively.

On September 19, 2008, Cosan S.A. undertook a capital subscription of 55,000,000 common shares which was completed on October 20, 2008.  Since a number of the noncontrolling interests did not exercise their subscription rights, the Company acquired 54,993,482 of the shares for US$456,034, and the minority shareholders acquired the remaining 6,518 shares for US$50.  In connection with this subscription, the shareholders received one Subscription Warrant (Warrant) for each new share.  Each Warrant grants its holder the right to subscribe 0.6 common shares, with the distribution of fractional shares not being permitted. Therefore, the Company received Warrants, which are valid through December 31, 2009, to purchase 32,996,089 additional common shares of Cosan S.A..  Since Cosan S.A. is a consolidated subsidiary, the Warrants recorded by Cosan S.A. have been eliminated in consolidation.

On September 14, 2009, the Company sold to third parties 10,000,000 of the Warrants for US$14,362, which resulted in a gain which is recorded as financial income.  The basis of the Warrants which were sold, amounting to US$4,594, has been reclassified from additional paid-in capital to noncontrolling interest. At December 31, 2009, 54,987,552 warrants have been exercised, of which 44,993,482 were exercised by the Company, 9,994,070 were exercised by noncontrolling shareholders and the remaining 12,448 warrants expired. The exercise of the warrants of Cosan S.A. resulted in the issuance of 32,992,531 common shares, valued at US$301,145. Of this amount, the Company received 26,996,089 common shares valued at US$267,753.

Shareholders’ equity (Continued)

In connection with the acquisition of Curupay, Cosan S.A. issued 44,300,389 new common shares (note 3). Since these shares were issued to noncontrolling interests, this diluted the Company’s ownership interest which resulted in an increase in additional paid-in capital of US$9,840.
 
11.
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, US$123,596, which resulted in a gain of US$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 current period the lease contracts were executed, and the gain is being amortized to profit and loss over the 19 year average term of the leases.
 
During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2009, Cosan S.A. has amortized a gain of US$2,464 related to this sale-leaseback transaction.

Share-based compensation

In the ordinary and extraordinary general meeting held on August 30, 2005, the guidelines for the outlining and structuring of a stock option plan for Cosan S.A. officers and employees were approved, thus authorizing the issue of up to 5% of shares comprising Cosan S.A.’s share capital. This stock option plan was outlined to attract and retain services rendered by officers and key employees, offering them the opportunity to become shareholders of Cosan S.A. On September 22, 2005, Cosan S.A.’s board of directors approved the distribution of stock options corresponding to 4,302,780 common shares to be issued or purchased by Cosan S.A. related to 3.25% of the share capital at the time, authorized by the annual/extraordinary meeting. The remaining 1.75% remained to be distributed. On September 22, 2005, the officers and key employees were informed regarding the key terms and conditions of the share-based compensation arrangement.

Share-based compensation (Continued)

According to the fair value at the grant date, the exercise price is US$2.64 per share which does not include any discount. The exercise price was calculated before the valuation mentioned above based on an expected private equity deal which did not occur. Options may be exercised after a one-year vesting period starting November 18, 2005, at the maximum percentage of 25% per year of the total stock options offered by Cosan S.A. The options for each 25% have a five-year period to be exercised.

On September 11, 2007, the board of directors approved an additional distribution of stock options, in connection with the stock option plan mentioned above, corresponding to 450,000 common shares to be issued or purchased by Cosan S.A. related to 0.24% of the share capital at September 22, 2005. The remaining 1.51% may still be distributed.

On August 7, 2009, the board of directors approved an additional distribution of stock options, in connection with the stock option plan mentioned above, corresponding to 165,657 common shares to be issued or purchased by Cosan S.A. Such options were issued without a vesting period, therefore the intrinsic value at grant date was the basis for calculating the fair value of the options, at US$9,82 per option, and an expense of US$1,071 was fully recorded by the company.

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

The employees that leave 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 the 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:

   
Options granted on September 22, 2005
   
Options granted on September 11, 2007
 
Grant price - in U.S. dollars
    3.51       3.51  
Expected life (in years)
    7.5       7.5  
Interest rate
    14.52 %     9.34 %
Volatility
    34.00 %     46.45 %
Dividend yield
    1.25 %     1.47 %
Weighted-average fair value at grant date - in U.S. dollars
    7.09       10.45  

As of December 31, 2009, the amount of US$ 1,832 related to the unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options is expected to be recognized in 12 months.

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.

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 at December 31, 2009.

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 decide on the allocation of resources. Cosan’s 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. Cosan has four segments: sugar, ethanol, fuel distribution and others group. The operations of these segments are based solely in Brazil.

Segment information (Continued)

a. Segment information (Continued)

The sugar segment mainly operates and produces a broad variety of sugar products, including raw (also known as very high polarization - VHP sugar), organic, crystal and refined sugars, and sells these products 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 segment substantially produces and sells fuel ethanol, both hydrous and anhydrous (which has a lower water content than hydrous ethanol) and industrial ethanol. Cosan’s principal ethanol product is fuel ethanol, which is used both as an automotive fuel and as an additive in gasoline, and is 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) to the Brazilian market in 2003. In addition, Cosan sells liquid and gel ethanol products used mainly in the production of paint and cosmetics and alcoholic beverages for industrial clients in various sectors.

With the acquisition of Cosan CL a new fuel distribution segment has been created. The fuel distribution segment is engaged in the distribution in Brazil of oil products, 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 more than 1,500 service stations.

The accounting policies underlying the financial information provided for the segments are based on Brazilian GAAP. We evaluate segment performance based on information generated from the statutory accounting records.

Others segment is comprised by selling cogeneration of electricity, diesel and corporate activities.

No asset information is provided by reportable segment due to the fact that the majority of the assets used in production of sugar and ethanol are the same.

Measurement of segment profit or loss and segment assets

Cosan S.A. evaluates performance and allocates resources based on return on capital and profitable growth. The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of Cosan S.A. is adjusted EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes excluding special items such as impairment and restructuring, integration costs, one-time gains or losses on sales of assets, acquisition, and other items similar in nature). The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

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, 2009, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009 and the condensed consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss) for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2009. 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, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the eleven-month period then ended not presented herein and in our report dated June 19, 2009, 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, 2009, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

1.
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 62.27% interest therein as of December 31, 2009 (68.89% as of March 31, 2009). The change in interest was mainly related to the issuance of shares for the acquisition of Curupay S.A. Participações (Note 3) and exercise of common stock warrants (Note 11). The class “A” common shares of Cosan Limited are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Bovespa.

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

On April 23, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with ExxonMobil International Holding B.V., or “Exxon”, for the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Esso Brasileira de Petróleo Ltda. and its subsidiaries (“Essobrás”), a distributor and seller of fuels and producer and seller of lubricants and specialty petroleum products of ExxonMobil in Brazil. On December 1, 2008 the Company completed the acquisition. On January 16, 2009 the Company changed the corporate name of Essobrás to Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A. (“Cosan CL”).

On August 29, 2008 the Company held an Annual and Special General Shareholders Meeting and unanimously approved the modification of the end of its fiscal year from April 30 to March 31 of each year. Therefore the income statement and cash flow information presented in these financial statements lack comparison to the prior period represented by the nine-month period ended January 31, 2009.

On August 28, 2008, the Company announced the incorporation of a new affiliate named Radar Propriedades Agrícolas S.A. (“Radar”), which engages in farm real estate investments in Brazil by identifying and acquiring rural properties likely to experience an increase in value and acquiring them for later leasing and/or sale. The initial capital contribution was US$185,000, of which US$35,000 was invested by Cosan (18.92%) and US$150,000 by another shareholder (81.08%). On August 25, 2009, an additional capital contribution of US$33,262, was approved, of which US$6,293 (18.92%) was invested by Cosan and the remainder by the other shareholder. On December 15, 2009, an additional capital contribution of US$8,911, was approved, of which US$1,659 (18.92%) was invested by Cosan and the remainder by the other shareholder.

On April 09, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Rezende Barbosa S.A. Administração e Participações (“Rezende Barbosa”) to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of Teaçu Armazéns Gerais S.A. (“Teaçu”). Teaçu operates a port terminal concession in the city of Santos.

On June 17, 2009, Cosanpar Participações S.A. (“Cosanpar”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cosan sold its equity interest in Jacta Participações S.A. (“Jacta”), a distributor of aviation fuel that was acquired in the Essobrás acquisition, to Shell Brasil Ltda. for US$59,234 cash. The results of operations of Jacta were recorded in the fuel distribution segment. The carrying value of the net assets sold was US$40,084, which resulted in a gain of US$19,150.

On June 18, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Rezende Barbosa to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of Curupay S.A. Participações (“Curupay”).  The principal investment of Curupay was 100% of the outstanding shares of Cosan Alimentos S.A. (former Nova América S.A. Agroenergia). Cosan Alimentos S.A. (“Cosan Alimentos”) is a producer of sugar, ethanol and energy co-generation which also operates in trading and logistics. See further discussion regarding this acquisition at Note 3.

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, 2009, 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 financial statements should be read in conjunction with Cosan`s annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

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 830 “Foreign Currency Matters”.

The exchange rate of the Brazilian real (R$) to the US$ was R$1.7412=US$ 1.00 at December 31, 2009 and R$2.3152=US$1.00 at March 31, 2009.

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.

Recently issued accounting standards

FASB Accounting Standards Codification

In September 2009, the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) became the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) for nongovernmental entities, except for certain FASB Statements not yet incorporated into ASC. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for registrants. The authoritative guidance mentioned in these financial statements includes the applicable ASC reference.

Subsequent Events

We adopted ASC 855, Subsequent Events, which established general accounting standards and disclosure for subsequent events,during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2009. In accordance with ASC 855, the Company has evaluated subsequent events through January 31, 2010, the date the financial statements were issued.

Noncontrolling Interests

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted new accounting guidance ASC 810, which changed the accounting for and the reporting of an entity’s minority ownership.  Such minority ownership, previously referred to as minority interest, is now referred to as noncontrolling interests. The adoption of this guidance resulted in the reclassification of amounts previously attributable to minority interest and classified in the mezzanine outside of shareholders’ equity, to a separate component of stockholders’ equity titled “Noncontrolling Interests” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and statement of changes in equity. 

Additionally, net income and comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interests are shown separately from consolidated net income and comprehensive income in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and statements of changes in equity. Prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation as required by the authoritative guidance.

Recently issued accounting standards (Continued)

New Accounting Pronouncements

The following accounting standards have been issued, but as of December 31, 2009 are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Company.

SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (“SFAS No. 166”)

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, which removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity (“QSPE”) from SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities-a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125. The QSPE concept had initially been established to facilitate off-balance sheet treatment for certain securitizations. SFAS No. 166 also removes the exception from applying FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN No. 46(R)”), to QSPEs. SFAS No. 166 has not been incorporated into ASC and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009, or April 1, 2010 for Cosan. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 166 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS No. 167”)

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, which amends FIN 46(R) to among other things, require an entity to qualitatively rather than quantitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). This determination should be based on whether the entity has 1) the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of the VIE and 2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Other key changes include: the requirement for an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary, the criteria for determining whether service provider or decision maker contracts are variable interests, the consideration of kick-out and removal rights in determining whether an entity is a VIE, the types of events that trigger the reassessment of whether an entity is a VIE and the expansion of the disclosures previously required under FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) SFAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R), Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises) about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities. SFAS No. 167 has not been incorporated into ASC and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009, or April 1, 2010 for Cosan. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 166 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

SFAS No. 168, FASB Codification and the Hierarchy of GAAP (“SFAS No. 168”)

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, which identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP. SFAS No. 168 replaces SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“the Codification”) as the single source of authoritative guidance recognized by the FASB. Under the Codification, all guidance carries an equal level of authority. SFAS No. 168 has not been incorporated into ASC and is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, or the quarter ending September 30, 2009 for Cosan. We adopted this guidance effective July 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Acquisitions

a.
Teaçu Armazéns Gerais S.A.

On April 9, 2009, Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio, through its 90% owned subsidiary, Copsapar Participações S.A., which owns 100% of Novo Rumo Logística S.A. (“Novo Rumo”), acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Teaçu Armazéns Gerais S.A. (“Teaçu”) from Rezende Barbosa S.A. Administração e Participações (“Rezende Barbosa”) for $52,985 cash and issuance of 90,736,131 shares of Novo Rumo, equivalent to 28.82% of its share capital. Teaçu holds a port concession in the city of Santos and operates a terminal dedicated to exporting sugar and other agricultural products. This acquisition combines the Santos port operations previously held separately by Cosan S.A. and Teaçu.

As a result of this transaction, Cosan S.A. reduced its indirect share ownership in Novo Rumo to 64.06%.

The acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred totaled $150,501, which consisted of the following:

Cash
    52,985  
Common stock at estimated fair value
    97,516  
Total
    150,501  

The fair value of the 90,736,131 common shares issued was provisionally determined at the acquisition date and is being reviewed in order to finalize the purchase price.

a. Teaçu Armazéns Gerais S.A. (Continued)

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. The company is in the process of obtaining valuations of certain intangible assets and fixed assets; thus, the provisional measurements of intangible assets, goodwill and deferred income tax assets are subject to change.

Acquisitions (Continued)

b. Curupay S.A. Participações

On June 18, 2009, Cosan S.A. acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Curupay S.A. Participações from Rezende Barbosa, through the issuance of 44,300,389 common shares valued at $7.25 per share (fair value at the acquisition date) and a total purchase price of US$321,087.  The assets acquired include the non-controlling interest in Novo Rumo representing 28.82% of its outstanding shares which were issued in the Teaçu acquisition, and 100% of the outstanding shares of two operating companies, Nova América S.A. Trading and Cosan Alimentos (collectively referred to as “Nova América”). Nova América is a producer of sugar, ethanol and energy co-generation and also operates in trading and logistics.

With the acquisition of the noncontrolling interest of Novo Rumo, Cosan S.A. increased its share ownership in Novo Rumo to 92.88%. This transaction was a change in ownership interest without a loss of control and accounted for as a transaction in shareholders’ equity.

The following table summarizes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in relation to Nova América.  These amounts are preliminary as valuations of certain intangible assets, fixed assets and other assets and liabilities are currently in process.

Taxes payable (Continued)

Additionally, it was permitted for the taxpayer to offset a portion of the penalties and interest due with its balance of income tax loss carry forwards. MP470 also allowed taxpayers to use tax losses to offset the principal balance related to IPI taxes (credit premium, note 9).

During the third quarter of 2009, Cosan S.A. and subsidiaries joined the tax recovery program and the following effects were recorded:

Taxes payable and recorded contingencies
    423,753  
Gain on tax recovery programs
    (121,554 )

    (117,105 )
Installments paid
    (6,425 )
Interest
    2,052

    180,722  

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the Brazilian federal jurisdiction. These subsidiaries are no longer subject to Brazilian federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before December 31, 2003.

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 recorded as noncurrent taxes payable, is as follows:

Balance at March 31, 2009
    53,995  
Accrued interest on unrecognized tax benefit
    1,933  
Effect of foreign currency translation
    17,800  
Settlements
    (37 )
Balance at December 31, 2009
    73,691  

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.

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.

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 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, 2009 and March 31, 2009 amounted to US$111,756 and US$113,877, 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 effect significantly different than the estimated amounts accrued.

Judicial deposits recorded by Cosan under non-current assets, amounting to US$104,527 at December 31, 2009 (US$73,975 at March 31, 2009) 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. Judicial deposits include US$66,601 related to exposures of Cosan CL prior to its acquisition by Cosan. If the Company prevails in the defense of these exposures, these related judicial deposits must be refunded to the seller.

The tax contingencies as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009 are described as follows:

Estimated liability for legal proceedings and labor claims and commitments (Continued)

On May 27, 2009, the paragraph 1st and 3rd of Brazilian Law No 9718/98 that regulated the collection of PIS and Cofins (federal tax contributions) on exchange variation and other financial income was revoked by Law No 11941/09. The Company is evaluating its ongoing judicial demands related to the legal obligations not paid related to the increase in the calculation basis of PIS and Cofins. Once the absence of errors or flaws in the ongoing demands is confirmed, the Company will revaluate the maintenance of the provision for the respective legal obligations in its financial statements.

The Company and its subsidiaries opted to settle tax related claims in installments as provided by Brazilian Law No 11.941/09 and in MP 470/09. The Company and its subsidiaries used accumulated tax losses to pay the related fines and interest. Consequently there was a full reduction of the claims related to IPI tax credit, as well as the installment payment of other federal taxes, that were recorded as Taxes Payable (note 6).

In addition to the aforementioned claims, Cosan and its subsidiaries are involved in other contingent liabilities relating to tax, civil and labor claims and environmental matters, which have not been recorded, considering their current stage and the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes rated as possible.

Estimated liability for legal proceedings and labor claims and commitments (Continued)

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 the Company. 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.

The amount is subject to interest and inflation adjustment by an official index. Lawyers fees in the amount of US$18,783 relating to this suit have been recorded in General and administrative expenses in 2007 and remain unpaid at December 31, 2009.

At December 31, 2009, these receivables totaled US$190,343 and US$22,841 (US$139,700 and US$16,764 at March 31, 2009), corresponding to related suit and lawyers’ fees, respectively.

Shareholders’ equity

On September 19, 2008, the board of directors approved a capital increase of US$456,084 through issuance of 55,000,000 previously unissued registered common shares without par value in a private subscription at an issuance price of US$8.29 each. The subscribers of each new share also received one Subscription Warrant (Warrant) which resulted in 55,000,000 Warrants being issued. Each Warrant grants its holder the right to subscribe 0.6 common shares, with the distribution of fractional shares not being permitted. Therefore, the Warrants issued allowed the holders to purchase 33,000,000 shares.  The Warrants were valid from their issue date to December 31, 2009. The exercise price of each amount of Warrants which totals one share is US$8.29 per share. As of December 31, 2009, 49,987,552 Warrants were exercised, the remaining 12,448 warrants expired.

October 22, 2008 was the deadline to exercise the right of capital subscription, approved in the meeting of the board of directors on September 19, 2008. Since a large number of the minority shareholders did not exercise their preemptive rights, Cosan Limited, the controlling shareholder, subscribed for and paid up 54,993,482 common shares valued at US$456,034, and the minority shareholders subscribed for and paid up 6,518 common shares, valued at US$50. As a result, Cosan Limited increased its holding of company’s common shares from 171,172,252 to 226,165,734. This increased their ownership percentage from 62.81% to 69.05% of the Company’s capital.

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, US$123,596, which resulted in a gain of US$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 current period the lease contracts were executed, and the gain is being amortized to profit and loss over the 19 year average term of the leases.

During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2009, the Company has amortized a gain of US$2,464 related to this sale-leaseback transaction.

Share-based compensation

In the ordinary and extraordinary general meeting held on August 30, 2005, the guidelines for the outlining and structuring of a stock option plan for Cosan officers and employees were approved, thus authorizing the issue of up to 5% of shares comprising Cosan’s share capital. This stock option plan was outlined to attract and retain services rendered by officers and key employees, offering them the opportunity to become shareholders of Cosan. On September 22, 2005, Cosan’s board of directors approved the distribution of stock options corresponding to 4,302,780 common shares to be issued or purchased by Cosan related to 3.25% of the share capital at the time, authorized by the annual/extraordinary meeting. The remaining 1.75% remained to be distributed. On September 22, 2005, the officers and key employees were informed regarding the key terms and conditions of the share-based compensation arrangement.

According to the fair value at the grant date, the exercise price is US$2.64 per share which does not include any discount. The exercise price was calculated before the valuation mentioned above based on an expected private equity deal which did not occur. Options may be exercised after a one-year vesting period starting November 18, 2005, at the maximum percentage of 25% per year of the total stock options offered by Cosan. The options for each 25% have a five-year period to be exercised.

On September 11, 2007, the board of directors approved an additional distribution of stock options, in connection with the stock option plan mentioned above, corresponding to 450,000 common shares to be issued or purchased by Cosan related to 0.24% of the share capital at September 22, 2005. The remaining 1.51% may still be distributed.

On August 7, 2009, the board of directors approved an additional distribution of stock options, in connection with the stock option plan mentioned above, corresponding to 165,657 common shares to be issued or purchased by Cosan. Such options were issued without a vesting period, therefore the intrinsic value at grant date was the basis for calculating the fair value of the options, at US$9,82 per option, and an expense of US$1,071 was fully recorded by the company.

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

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

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.

13.
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 at December 31, 2009.

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 decide on the allocation of resources. Cosan’s 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. Cosan has four segments: sugar, ethanol, fuel distribution and others group. The operations of these segments are based solely in Brazil.

The sugar segment mainly operates and produces a broad variety of sugar products, including raw (also known as very high polarization - VHP sugar), organic, crystal and refined sugars, and sells these products 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 segment substantially produces and sells fuel ethanol, both hydrous and anhydrous (which has a lower water content than hydrous ethanol) and industrial ethanol. Cosan’s principal ethanol product is fuel ethanol, which is used both as an automotive fuel and as an additive in gasoline, and is 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) to the Brazilian market in 2003. In addition, Cosan sells liquid and gel ethanol products used mainly in the production of paint and cosmetics and alcoholic beverages for industrial clients in various sectors.

With the acquisition of Cosan CL a new fuel distribution segment has been created. The fuel distribution segment is engaged in the distribution in Brazil of oil products, 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 more than 1,500 service stations.

The accounting policies underlying the financial information provided for the segments are based on Brazilian GAAP. We evaluate segment performance based on information generated from the statutory accounting records.

Segment information (Continued)

a.    Segment information (Continued)

Others segment is comprised by selling cogeneration of electricity, diesel and corporate activities.

No asset information is provided by reportable segment due to the fact that the majority of the assets used in production of sugar and ethanol are the same.

Measurement of segment profit or loss and segment assets

Cosan S.A. evaluates performance and allocates resources based on return on capital and profitable growth. The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of Cosan S.A. is adjusted EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes excluding special items such as impairment and restructuring, integration costs, one-time gains or losses on sales of assets, acquisition, and other items similar in nature). The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

The Company has 23 producing units, located in e São Paulo, Goiás and Mato Grosso do Sul States, with a nominal capacity of milling 60 million tons of sugarcane per year, producing varied qualities of raw and refined sugar, anhydrous and hydrated ethanol. The Company activities are also linked with those of its subsidiary Cosan Operadora Portuária S.A. (“Cosan Portuária”), Teaçu Armazéns Gerais S.A. (“Teaçu”) and TEAS - Terminal Exportador de Álcool de Santos S.A. (“TEAS”), which consist mainly in the Company’s logistic support to export of sugar and ethanol.

The Company, through its subsidiary Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A.

During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2009, the Company and its subsidiaries carried out a number of corporate operations, the main of which being the association among the groups Cosan and Rezende Barbosa and controlling shareholding acquisition of TEAS, the details of which are described in Note 8 hereto.

According to the shareholders’ agreement executed on April 9, 2008, the port concessions and assets for sugar export owned by the Company and by Rezende Barbosa S.A.

(“Teaçu”), a subsidiary of Rezende Barbosa. As a consequence of this operation, which involved the payment of R$121,331 and the issuance of shares of Novo Rumo, the Company acquired 100% of Teaçu, becoming the indirect holder of a 64.06% interest of Rumo, and 28.82% remained held by Rezende Barbosa. This operation resulted in a R$66,968 goodwill classified as Intangible assets.

In addition, the capital reorganization resulted in a total net capital loss of R$31,190, recorded in results for the period as Other operating income (expenses), net.

Accounts receivable from Federal Government (Continued)

The Company is awaiting the final decision on the form of payment, which will probably be through government securities issued in connection with court ordered debts, to be received in 10 years, after a final decision is handed down.

In 2008, there was review of the criteria for determining monetary restatement in the Federal Court Calculations Manual, which did not consider interest restatement as from January 2003. In view of this, subsidiary reversed at March 31, 2009, the amount of R$18,768 from its noncurrent assets, debited to the statement of income for the year, in financial income (expense), net account. Consequently, lawyers’ fees calculated in proportion to the assets, recorded in noncurrent liabilities, in other liabilities account, were reduced by R$2,253, credited to the same account in the statement of operations.

At December 31, 2009, these amounts totaled R$331,426 and R$39,771 (R$329,049 and R$39,486 at September 30, 2009), corresponding to the referred to case and lawyers’ fees, respectively.

The subsidiary Cosan Açúcar e Álcool has other claims for damages of this nature filed against the Federal Government, which are not recognized in accounting due to the procedural progress of such suits.

Foreign exchange risk

The Company has derivatives in order to mitigate its exposure to the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on its revenue from exports. The exchange rate derivatives together with the commodity price derivatives allow ensuring minimum average profit from future production. The Company actively manages contracted positions, and the result of such activities is monitored daily. through effective mark-to-market controls and price impact simulations in order to allow adjusting targets and strategies due to changes in market conditions. The fair value of these derivatives was measured based on estimates that use discounted cash flows based on market curves.

At December 31, 2009, the Company had US$1,154,868 thousand (US$1, 360,600 thousand at September 30, 2009) hedged by future, forward and option contracts traded in BM&FBovespa and OTC, with a positive adjustment to market value estimated at R$47,986 (positive adjustment of R$51,178 at September 30, 2009).

e)
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. In the fuel distribution activity, the diversity of the receivables, the selected clients and the follow up of financing terms of sales by business segment and individual position limits are procedures adopted to minimize eventual default in the accounts receivable. 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 and its subsidiaries historically have not recorded material losses on trade accounts receivable.

f)
Debt acceleration risk

As of December 31, 2009, 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 or are in process of renegotiation and do not place any restrictions on its operations.

g)
Market values

As of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, the fair values of cash, marketable securities and trade accounts receivable and payable approximate the respective amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements, 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 105.75% and 99.38%, respectively, of their face value at December 31, 2009.

The fair value of Perpetual Bonds as described in Note 13, according to its market value, was 90.40% of its face value at December 31, 2009.

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.

h)
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 the 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 derivative financial instruments. Impacts on operations were not considered, but only on the variable that impacts the value of derivative financial instruments. The definition of the probable scenario included the market data at December 31, 2009, the same one which determine the fair value of the derivatives at that date and therefore there are no differences in relation to the fair value of the derivative financial instruments. The possible adverse and remote scenarios were established in view of adverse impacts of 25% and 50% on the curves in the prices of the U.S. dollar and sugar:

(2)
The sensitivity on exports reflects the 25% and 50% increase scenarios (versus the scenarios for reduction in the underlying derivative financial instruments) on the R$ : US$ exchange rate  in the future in relation to the volume of U.S. dollars equivalent to notional in derivative financial instruments contracted in order to hedge the Company against such variations.

(3)
Net foreign exchange exposure of R$3,241,275, equivalent to US$1.861,517 thousand.

Insurance

At December 31, 2009, 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 buildings, equipment and installations at plants.

The Company does not foresee any difficulties to renew its insurance policies and believes that the coverage established is reasonable in terms of amounts and consistent with Brazilian industry standards.

The scope of our audit work did not include a review of the sufficiency of the insurance coverage, which, as determined by the Company management, was considered sufficient to cover any claims.

Stock option plan

At the Annual and Special General Meeting held on August 30, 2005, the Guidelines for the Outlining and Structuring of a Stock Option Plan for Company’s officers and employees were approved, 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 or purchased by the Company related to 3.25% of the share capital at the time, authorized by the Annual/Special General 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 the time, authorized by the Annual/Special General 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 an additional distribution of stock options, with no vesting period, corresponding to 165,657 common shares to be issued or purchased by the Company, following a change in the management members.

Stock option plan (Continued)

Based on the fair value at the issue date, exercise price is R$6.11 (six reais and eleven centavos) per share, without discount. The exercise price was calculated before the above evaluation based on an expected private equity agreement based on that eventually was not made. The options are exercisable over a 3-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 options exercised shall be settled only upon issue of new common or treasury shares that the Company may have at each relevant 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 good 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, 2009 stock options equivalent to 670,976 common shares were not exercised.

Until December 31, 2009, 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 0.17% after exercising all remaining options.

At December 31, 2009, R$3,465 regarding the unrecognized remuneration cost of stock options will be recognized within nearly nine months (R$3,980 at September 30, 2009, with a deadline of nearly 12 months).
