2.PARAMETERS AND ENGAGEMENT

For the third consecutive year, Marcopolo discloses its Sustainability Report, which is based on international guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). Reported information refers to the year 2013, and presents comparative results data of 2011 and 2012.

| GRI 3.5/3.6/3.7/3.9/4.14/4.15/4.16/4.17

The report has been improved every year, seeking transparency with the support of the public of the Company, who were invited to contribute with their opinion, identifying sustainability issues of greatest relevance. To make this query, Marcopolo has identified and elected these priority stakeholders to participate in the Materiality Test, prepared on the basis of GRI indicators. This activity was developed by the Marcopolo Sustainability Committee with the help of related areas. The Sustainability Committee was created in 2008 and consists of representatives from the Financial, Social and Environmental areas. The indicators are being monitored monthly and since 2013, some of them are part of the BSC (Balanced Score Card) of the company with performance goals by area.

COMPOSITION OF THE REPORT When reading this publication, it is possible to observe that the company’s actions are aligned to the results of the Materiality Matrix. It is noticed that the indicators that were evaluated as less important are precisely the topics that have been worked by the Company over the years; therefore they are no longer perceived as in need of attention. This year, the qualification programs for labor, health and safety and waste disposal for employees, were again scored as very important, but with a subtle shift in priority by the company. As an immediate action, proper disposal of waste and reduction of waste materials were included among the indicators of the Company Profit Sharing Program (EFIMAR – Marcopolo Efficacy). In the composition of the social and environmental indicators, the company reports only transactions with operations in Brazil, however, the financial indicators have consolidated data from across the whole Company in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil and IFRS - International Financial Reporting Standards. Marcopolo measuring techniques and base of calculations use the Universal System (Human Resources) and SAP (other areas).

EMPLOYEES The ViaPolo Internal Communication Network, launched in March 2012, unified the various communication channels used by the company for the relationship with employees and their families. In 2013, changes in the network were consolidated by facilitating access to information in the units of Caxias do Sul and Duque de Caxias. The ViaPolo network consists of wall newspapers, intranet, posters, magazine and Corporate TV. Its operation is in charge of the Internal Communications department, which is also responsible for the information, engagement and relationship campaigns that can involve both employees and their families. Marcopolo uses the intranet to conduct periodic surveys in order to assess the understanding and effectiveness of information and actions of the company. The remodeling of the Ombudsman was very important to improve the control of actions and responses, including the retraining of all managers. The Ombudsman program is an important channel of communication between employees and Marcopolo, it allows the company to constantly monitor the organizational environment, taking actions to improve people management practices. Marcopolo has two channels of the Ombudsman program for the employees: the Free Channel and the Conduct Committee. The Free Channel is a program that welcomes suggestions, criticisms, complaints or praise from employees; arising issues can be about relationships at work and the management of the company. The Conduct Committee has the responsibility to provide guidance to employees in case of doubt as to the application of the Code of Conduct, as well

as assessment and decision making when cases of violation of principles are verified. To address any situation to the Free Channel or the Conduct Committee, employees must use the link on the corporate Intranet page. The system is 100% safe, and the individuals do not need to identify themselves to use the Ombudsman. The manifestations are forwarded to the responsible for the matters, and the answer must be provided in the allotted time. When the employee is not identified, the answers are placed on the intranet and the sender has access through the password received when sending the message. The practice is also foreseen by the regulation SA 8000, which aims to ensure workers’ rights. Employees and people in general can use the External Ombudsman, through the open channel to make complaints of potential fraud, theft and related topics, which will be segregated and sent for evaluation of Internal Audit, under the management of the Audit and Risks Committee.

Employee Satisfaction The company carries Organizational Environment Survey to verify the satisfaction of its employees towards management as well as the services and benefits offered. A sample survey with 30% of the workforce was performed in 2012 and the overall result for Brazil is 69% satisfaction. After the research, improvement actions were defined and they have been implemented since then. By 2014, Marcopolo aims to carry out a new survey of all the employees in Brazil. 28 •

He started in the company in 1964, when it was still called Nicola. By that time, the company depended almost exclusively on the center of the country, due to the receiving of raw material or sales operations. In this way, in 1967 he transferred to São Paulo, where he got the position of general sales supervisor of the national market, assisting in the opening of new markets. Returning to Caxias do Sul, his activity turned to the commercial area, covering national and international markets. Since the very beginning, he had a direct and determinant participation in the planning and definition of strategic actions of communication. He was responsible for changing the name of the company from Nicola to Marcopolo, for the construction of a solid identity that reflected the policy of quality and partnership with the client, besides strongly contributing for the expansion of businesses, due to his visionary guidance through different cultures and countries around the world, in the five continents.

COMMUNITY Through the areas of Human Resources, Marketing and the Marcopolo Foundation, the company maintains a relationship of partnership and dialogue with the communities where its industrial plants are located. By identifying community needs, Marcopolo defines its social projects with assertiveness, institutional support, financial resources, or public / private partnerships.

Mr. Valter Gomes Pinto left a very important legacy for the company and will be remembered as a great supporter of the improvement of the policy of relations with clients, through the expansion of networking and qualification of the processes of commercialization of products.

He believed that the act of preserving the past is a way to honor all who made part of the history, allowing future generations to learn and develop from previous experiences.

Marcopolo Memory Documentation Center The Marcopolo Memory Documentation Center created in 1999, highlights the importance of the company for the development of the city as well as the transport for passengers.

2013,

AN OVERCOMING YEAR The year 2013 was characterized as a year of new challenges and turmoil for the bus manufacturing and bus bodies industry in Brazil, especially in the second half. In June, popular demonstrations, which began as a result of the announced increase of bus fares, leaded to claims that demanded tariff reductions and improvements in public transport, which resulted in the freezing of urban bus fares by local governments. Until then, Marcopolo had been operating with a good volume of orders, both for road and urban models. From the fourth quarter onwards the demand for city buses was reduced due to the freezing of bus tariffs. Added to this, is the publication of the invitation to bid on interstate lines by the National Transportation Agency (ANTT), which also brought uncertainty to the market for intercity buses, affecting the entry of new orders. Despite the challenging scenario, Marcopolo’s net revenue grew 9.1% domestically and 7.5% in the export market compared with the previous year. Production in Brazil increased 5.0% compared to 2012, and the consolidated global production rose 4.0% in the same period. Although undeniable efforts in all spheres of the government, federal, state and municipal, aimed at providing a more organized public transport system

with newer buses providing more speed and comfort for users, especially through BRT systems (Bus Rapid Transit); the short-term impacts reflected in the demand for buses in the end of 2013, bringing uncertainties to the bus sector in Brazil. However, in the medium to long term these actions should converge to acceleration in the renewal of the bus fleet in order to meet the new requirements and regulations, such as the limitation of maximum age and higher frequency of operations benefiting bus body manufacturers. In foreign markets, the revenue from Brazilian exports benefited from the devaluation of the BRL against the USD, and the Special Regime for Reintegration Securities Tax (REINTEGRA), valid until the end of 2013. Regarding the subsidiaries of Marcopolo abroad, the highlight was Volgren - Australia, where production rose 21.6% in 2013 compared to 2012. Altogether, transactions outside Marcopolo contributed with a volume of 2,154 units in 2013. As for financing, FINAME - PSI of BNDES credit line was renewed until the end of 2014 with interest of 6.0% per year, which is still attractive for the acquisition of capital assets in Brazil. At the end of the year, the Federal Government announced a new electronic auction of the project “Road to School”, for the purchase of up to 8,000 units.

THE YEAR 2014 The uncertain scenario for the Brazilian bus market, which began in the second half of last year, still persists in 2014. However, the World Cup, which is driving the demand for buses in the tourism sector and intercity transport, allied to the BRT orders in backlog, are compensating the decrease in the other segments. Regarding the bidding of interstate lines, the schedule is still undefined and it remains with no forecast for the date of the auctions. In foreign markets, the devaluation of the real against the dollar has boosted Marcopolo exports, especially from the fourth quarter of last year. In addition to the traditional import markets, Marcopolo envisions important export business to countries in Central America and Africa, mostly focused on the implementation of new BRT projects and urban mobility in those regions. Regarding the program Road to School of the Federal Government, Marcopolo announced on February 4, through a notice to the Market that will produce and deliver up to 4,100 school buses, whose deliveries will extend through this year and that are now going through the document preparation step. Additionally, still in 2013, Marcopolo was contemplated with the supply of up to 1,540 school buses for the state of São Paulo, whose deliveries shall mostly happen during the first half of 2014.

The new Volare plant located in the state of Espírito Santo, is expected to start operating in the second half of this year with an initial capacity of 3,000 units per year. In the first stage, the Planalto unit in Caxias do Sul city, will send kits for assembly in the new factory, and on the following step, the plant will be able to produce the Volare buses locally. Regarding Marcopolo subsidiaries abroad, it is important to highlight the launch of the 7th Generation model of intercity buses in Mexico, nationally produced, they have an excellent receptiveness by local customers. In South Africa, MASA was successful in two major lots for the renewal of BRT systems in Johannesburg and Pretoria, whose deliveries began in 2013 and will continue until 2015.

Purchasing Process The Company maintains a policy of working with suppliers located nearby its units. In the year 2013, Caxias do Sul reached an average of 67% of its suppliers in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. At Marcopolo Rio, however, the reality is different due to the lack of qualified suppliers near the company, so that local purchases represented only 30%. In all units, the percent difference is acquired in other states.

The lack of domestic suppliers or much higher costs than the international prices lead to importation. Even so, in 2013, the share of purchases from abroad represented less than 4% of the products used in bus bodies. The suppliers must align their procedures to the international standard regulations related to quality, environment and human rights, taking part in audit processes carried out by Marcopolo.

In 2013, R$ 2.8 billion was invested in the purchase of products and services by Marcopolo units in Caxias do Sul, and Marcopolo Rio, RJ. In comparison with the previous year, the growth was 12%. If compared with 2011,the value outperformed in 20%.

7.ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE NEW LANDFILL CONSOLIDATES THE MANAGEMENT OF INDUSTRIAL WASTE With the objective of continuously improving its environmental management practice, Marcopolo promotes improvements to minimize and control the impact of its activities. In 2013, the company has acquired a new landfill located in Apanhador, on the border between the municipalities of Caxias do Sul and SĂŁo Francisco de Paula. With this operation, Marcopolo reaches the goal announced in the previous report of maintaining absolute control over environmental liabilities of the company. The process of licensing the Industrial Solid Waste Landfill Class II demanded five years involving environmental impact studies, public hearings, Preview and Installation and Operation licenses. The landfill, which is built from careful environmental control standards, covers a total area of 16 hectares and has a projection of 25 years of life.

The manufacturing of bus bodies implies the use of 8,500 items, involving different types of raw material from metal alloys to very sophisticated engineering plastic, with all types of coating in fabric, plastic, formic and fiber glass laminate, wood, etc. The selective waste collection implies the internal separation of more than 60 items that are stred temporarily in the Waste Center. The Hazardous wastes are destined for the technologies that do not generate environmental liabilities for the company such as co-processing, decontamination and / or recycling. Scrap metals, for example, are sent directly to recycling. All other materials are sent to the Waste Processing Unit - UPR, which undergo a new screening. The aim of the UPR is to add value to materials with recycling potential and recover also those that were mixed. What is not amenable to recycling is compressed SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2013

to the maximum in order to minimize the grounded volume. In 2013, the company promoted tours of employees in the Waste Processing Unit; from the engineering department only, there were more than 300 people participating. Thus, the responsibility of employees in reducing the waste of materials has increased. The visiting program continues in 2014.

MARCOPOLO FOUNDATION ACTIONS

Shared Knowledge In 2013, at the celebration of the 25th anniversary of Marcopolo Foundation, it was held a talk with the philosopher Mario Sergio Cortella, bringing together employees and the general community, which gathered around 4,500 people.

Volunteering The Volunteers of Joy ( Voluntários da Alegria) group formed by employees of the Company operates in educational and charity centers. The members participate in educational activities, restoration of physical facilities and campaigns to collect food for children. One of the highlights of the volunteering program is the event called A Happy Day held in October, which brought an average of 1800 children and adolescents of different charities together. The Marcopolo Foundation coordinates about 230 volunteers and benefits about 5,420 people.

PROGRAMS FOR THE COMMUNITY Social activities are coordinated by the Marcopolo Foundation since 2005, following the main goals of the millennium. The programs serve the areas of Education, Culture, Sports and Recreation, in order to engage and encourage the community and employees.

Schools Project The Schools Project stands out among the projects for the community; it aims to contribute to the development of the educational environment, school community relations and citizenship training. In 2013, projects with “Sustainability” theme were developed in three different schools. The activities developed in the schools focused on the environment, social relations and economic / financial development. The program consisted of workshops that took place after school hours. One of the highlights of the project was the production of reusable bags with the involvement of students in the production, financial control, marketing and preservation of the environment among others. Students could count with the help of volunteers from Marcopolo. This action allowed a small production of bags with the support of the families, all of which were bought by Marcopolo Foundation, generating improvements to the school (chosen by the students themselves) and food baskets for the families involved.

Project Where am I? (Projeto Onde Estou?)

Allocation of Taxes Marcopolo Foundation contributes monthly with community institutions in health and education, with the service of Neonatal Pediatrics of the General Hospital in Caxias do Sul, which attends patients of the Unified Health System (SUS). Marcopolo, Banco Moneo and Marcopolo Rio give 1.0% of Due Income Tax to the Municipal Fund for the Rights of Children and Adolescents of the cities of Caxias do Sul, RS, and Duque de Caxias, RJ.

The units outside Brazil also develop specific actions according to the needs of local community, especially towards demands on health and education. This data is not reported in this document.

Marcopolo Foundation stimulates in Caxias do Sul the increase and facilitates the allocation of 6.0% of the Due Income Tax - Individuals, of employees of the sponsored companies for Municipal Funds, generating resources for the development of social projects aimed at children and adolescents.

COMDICA

In 2013, employees allocated around R$ 350 thousand from their Due Income Tax, assisting approximately 1,000 children at social risk through projects of professionalization. Marcopolo Foundation led the campaign Destine You Too, seeking an internal and external increase of the money destined to the Municipal Fund for Children and Adolescents (COMDICA). The campaign resulted in a raise of 11% from Individual tax payers and 49% from Legal Entities.

Besides the allocation of money to the Municipal Fund for Children and Adolescents in 2013, the Company also donated R$ 250 000 to the Municipal Fund for the Elderly of Caxias do Sul in the same year.

The project Where am I? (Onde Estou?), coordinated by the Institute Bruno Segalla promotes interfaces between the school, the museum and the city. Fosters dialogue with children and young people about the cultural heritage and the sense of belonging to their city.

Through the Law for the Promotion of Culture (LIC) of Caxias do Sul, the Company invested R$ 78,620.00 for the project Reading Passport and Community Libraries; and by the Federal Law for the Incentive of Culture - Rouanet – the company has spent R$ 1.200.0000, 00 for other 11 projects, especially for the Recreate Making Art and Education (Recria Fazendo Arte e Educação), Where Am I? (Onde Estou?) - More Music: Youth Orchestra (Mais Musica Orquestra Jovem), involving children and adolescents.

The pilot project More Music: Youth Orchestra (Mais Música - Orquestra Jovem), counted on 60 adolescents and children of employees of the Caxias do Sul community. Youngsters received practical and theoretical music lessons, and took home the instrument of their choice to continue the study. With the positive results of this project in 2013, the goal for 2014 is to increase the number of participants to 120 students. Marcopolo also invested R$ 250,000.00, through the Sports Incentive Law, to volleyball, handball and canoeing activities and has also implemented CAE Project - Children and Adolescents at Sports (Projeto CAE – Crianças e Adolescentes no Esporte), which assists more than 150 children in situations of extreme social vulnerability. In 2013, through the Law for Promotion of Health, Marcopolo supported for the first time, the project of the Pediatric Cancer Center Little Prince of Curitiba (Centro Oncológico Pediátrico Pequeno Príncipe de Curitiba), with the amount of R$ 200 thousand. The project was chosen because it is a national reference center for the treatment of children cancer. In Rio de Janeiro, the support goes to projects that stimulate the cognitive development of children and adolescents. The Puppet Theater Workshop (Oficina de Teatro de Bonecos), for example, encompasses much more than only the technical side, assembly of dolls and the creation of a spectacle; it also works with and develops many other aspects that clearly influence the human development of students.

The Project Recreate Making Art Education, which since 2004 is sponsored by Marcopolo this year has attended 3,600 youngsters in the community with of 31 workshops in 26 institutions. The sponsorship enables workshops after school hours, in addition to maintaining the Reolon Center for Popular Culture (Centro de Cultura Popular Reolon), offering music lessons to over 100 children and adolescents.
