permeated by sustainable development, from conception of a new project to proper disposal of waste generated in different areas. Marcopolo understands the need to meet expectations and to engage stakeholders in relation to their performance in sustainability. The results of the research conducted with representatives, suppliers, employees, managers and community were used for the Materiality Matrix and will serve to guide future actions of the company in sustainability issues. Moreover, indicators of economic, social and environmental areas were selected to compose the Balanced Score Card (BSC) of the company in 2013, having been set improvement targets compared with the previous years, monitored monthly by management. Economically speaking, the year 2012 was marked by the challenges posed by the transition of the motorization Euro 3 to Euro 5 in Brazilian market as well as the geographical expansion of Marcopolo abroad.

Marcopolo discloses, for the second time, its Sustainability Report, in accordance with international guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). The report presents the results of 2012 compared with the previous two years. This edition features the same level of information from the previous report, which portrayed the year 2011, compared to 2009 and 2010, maintaining its rating at level C. However, the report presents an improvement over the previous result, which is a consequence of conducting engagement activities with its stakeholders to identify most relevant sustainability issues. The priority stakeholders were identified to participate in the Materiality Test, and the issues for consultation were defined, based on the GRI indicators. This activity was developed by the Sustainability Committee,

with support from related fields. The subjects that were identified as relevant were compared to the GRI indicators and served as the basis for the definition of the content and the information more prominent in this report. The results of the stakeholder consultation on the issues of sustainability are expressed in Materiality Matrix (see picture), which was drawn from the comparison of the internal and external vision on the matters consulted. In the composition of social and environmental indicators, the company reports only operations with activities in Brazil, but the financial and economic indicators consolidate data from across the Company. Measurement techniques and the bases of calculation of Marcopolo use the Universal System (HR) and SAP (other areas).

Five months later, a new urban product, the Turquesa, was introduced to the market, demonstrating that the investment had been fit. Two years later, in 2001, Ciferal became a company 100% Marcopolo, enabling the consolidation of concepts of security, profitability and confidence in urban bus market.

Volare Currently, the subsidiar y is a unique center for the production of bus and minibus for passenger transport in urban centers. It has the capacity to produce 8,000 vehicles per year and also counts with approximately 2,500 employees. Ciferal has a high -speed rhythm of production, and covers 100% of bus body manufacture intended for urban transportation.

The Business Unit Volare was born in 1998, according to the market demand for an agile, safe, economical and comfortable vehicle in the transportation of passengers. Since the first model, intended for urban transport, Volare became a complete family of vehicles with different models and versions, which span from alternative transportation, or cooperatives, to special applications such as mobile units. A major driver of this success was the school segment. The brand was the first to believe that the Brazilian

market was in need of an own vehicle to transport students and launched the School Bus, the first minibus developed specifically for this segment. Gradually, the model was conquering its space, and with the launch of the Caminho da Escola (Way to School) Program, it transformed the landscape of school transportation in Brazil, with more than 15,000 units supplied. This vocation of Volare to innovate caused the onset, at the end of last year, of the unprecedented market model with four-wheel drive.

2012 - The challenges of Euro 5 and geographical expansion GRI 2,9 The year 2012 was marked by the challenge derived from the transition from Euro 3 to Euro 5 engine in the Brazilian market. The new engine, essential to meet the new levels of pollutant emissions established by CONAMA Proconve P7 regulations, impacted the Brazilian bus market and led Marcopolo to adopt the strategy of acquiring Euro 3 chassis available in the market and sell complete vehicles. The decision proved to be correct and dismissed in part the effect of the implementation of Euro 5, resulting in a turnover of chassis in the amount of R$ 130.5 million in the period. Following its expansion strategy, Marcopolo signed MoU with the Government of the State of Espírito Santo and the municipality of São Mateus, aiming to install a new vehicle assembly plant of Volare line in the State of Espírito Santo.

In December, the Company announced the signing, through its affiliate Metalpar Argentina SA, of a contract to purchase 51% stake in the company Metalsur Bodies SRL, based in Rosario, Argentina. Metalsur is specialized in manufacturing road bus bodies, especially double decker models, and produces an average of 200 units per year. •

A year of opportunities Marcopolo has launched a new model of intercity and road bus called Audace, which provides enhanced comfort, ergonomics and safety for passengers, with lower cost of operation.

Economic Performance

In the external market, exports of Marcopolo from Brazil grew 25.9% compared to 2011, with margins benefited from the devaluation of the Real against the U.S. dollar and the Reintegration of the Special Tax Amounts for Exporting Companies (REINTEGRA). Another highlight in 2012 was the Brazilian Federal Government’s investment in the purchase of up to 8,570 school buses for the Caminho da Escola (Way to School) project, through the Growth Acceleration Program (GAP - Equipment). During the year, Marcopolo produced 3,911 school buses for the Way to School project. Regarding controlled/associated units of Marcopolo abroad, the highlights were from India and Mexico, which increased their production by 23% and 27.3%, respectively,

In 2012 the total production in Brazil was 19,483 units, 8% more than in 2011, and the total production abroad was 11,813 units, up 14.3% compared to the previous period.

The year 2013 began with a positive trend for Marcopolo either in the domestic market, as in most countries where the Company operates. In Brazil, the better credit conditions, the acceleration in the renovation of the bus fleet, the bids of interstate transportation services and the investments in urban infrastructure, especially in the implementation of BRT (Bus Rapid Transit), assure for Marcopolo a high order portfolio in this beginning of the year.

Suppliers favorable exchange. Regarding to subsidiaries and affiliates abroad, the highlights of 2013 should be India and Mexico, with expectations for production growth of 22.4% and 14.6% respectively, compared to 2012, according to the already issued guidance.

Expected Performance for 2013:

Producing 35,200 buses Each bus takes approximately 60 cars from public roads.

As a statement released by the Company on December 19, 2012, performance expectations for 2013, keeping the current market conditions and the economic performance of the countries where the Company operates, are: (i) planned investments of R$ 200 million in existing business; (ii) achieve consolidated net revenues of R$ 4.3 billion; and, (iii) producing 35.200 buses in the units in Brazil and abroad.

Purchase Process EC.6 The total amount invested on purchases of products and services by Marcopolo units in Caxias do Sul and Rio de Janeiro totaled more than R$ 2.4 billion in 2012. In comparison with the previous year, the growth was 9.1%, and compared to 2010 surpassed 41.8%.

occurs only in specific cases, which take into consideration the lack of local content or costs a lot higher than the international prices. In 2011, less than 4% of the products used in bus bodies were acquired abroad, a rate that has declined in recent years.

Marcopolo’s policy is working with suppliers located near their units. This is the case of factories from Caxias do Sul, which acquire an average of 71% in Rio Grande do Sul. In Ciferal, the reality is different from lack of qualified suppliers near the unity. In Rio de Janeiro are concentrated only 31% of purchases. In all units, the difference is gained in other states.

Among the major improvements in 2012, we emphasize the monthly monitoring of indicators in BSC, the implementation process of e-coat paint (water based) in the manufacture line of seats structures and the obtaining of the permission to install a new landfill for nonhazardous industrial solid waste. The landfill aims to maintain absolute control over the environmental liabilities of the company. The Company’s goal for 2013 is presenting investments and expenses for environmental protection by type. EN.30

The Development Engineering of Marcopolo has a major commitment to the aspects related to product liability. The company seeks innovation and continually invests in research of new materials and processes. The Engineering and Manufacturing Corporate Board holds the Technical Responsibility for the projects and processes of products. The development of new products receives strategic assumptions that must be pursued by all involved. To Marcopolo, the main premise of the project is absorbing specific demands arising from market researches with customers, users, drivers, those who in charge of maintenance and operation, and also stakeholders.

• Reduction of manufacturing costs;

Efforts generate gains to client’s operation through reductions in the coefficient of aerodynamic penetration and in the weight. Through prioritization of weight we reached:

In 2012, Marcopolo signed an agreement with

• Reduction of diesel consumption; • Reduced tire wear in its use phase, generating greater savings for the client; • Reduction of atmospheric emissions in the use phase and therefore contributing to the preservation of natural resources. The need to replace fiber glass parts and components by plastic ones is also contemplated, with the goal of increasing the amount of recyclable materials in product composition and minimizing environmental liabilities arising from non-recyclable waste. Acrilys focusing on injected plastic, which is recyclable and may, in the future, increase the share of recycled material in the product.
