Introduction
 
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated interim accounting information of Cosan Limited, included in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, comprising the balance sheet as at that date and the statements of income and comprehensive income for the quarter and nine-month period then ended, and the statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management is responsible for the preparation of the consolidated interim accounting information in accordance with the International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as the presentation of this information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM), applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim accounting information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Reviews of Interim Financial Information (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 – Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion on the consolidated interim information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated interim accounting information included in the quarterly information referred to above has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information, and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the CVM.

Other matters

Audit and review of prior-year information

The Quarterly Information (ITR) mentioned in the first paragraph includes the accounting information corresponding to the statements of income, changes in equity and cash flows for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, obtained from the quarterly information then ended, and the balance sheet at March 31, 2012, obtained from the financial statements as at March 31, 2012, presented for comparison purposes. The review of the Quarterly Information (ITR) for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 and the audit of the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2012 were conducted by other independent auditors, who issued unqualified review and audit reports dated February 28, 2013 and May 30, 2012, respectively.

Reissuance of the interim accounting information

We draw attention to Note 2.4 to the interim accounting information, which describes the restatement and reissuance of the accompanying parent company and consolidated interim accounting information of Cosan Limited, included in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 due to matters described in this note. We issued our original review’s report dated February 6, 2013 on the previously issued interim accounting information. Due to the restatement described in Note 2.4, we provide this new review’s report on the reissued interim accounting information.

Operations

Cosan Limited ("Cosan" or the “Company") was incorporated in Bermuda on April 30, 2007. Its shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker CZZ, and on the São Paulo Stock Exchange (“BM&F BOVESPA”) under the ticker CZLT11. Mr. Rubens Ometto Silveira Mello is the ultimate controlling shareholder of the Company. Cosan Limited controls Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio and its subsidiaries ("Cosan S.A.") in which it holds a 62.30% interest.

The primary activities of Cosan S.A., through its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities, are in the following business segments: (i) Sugar & Ethanol: the production of sugar and ethanol, as well as the energy cogeneration produced from sugar cane bagasse, through its joint venture, Raízen Energia S.A. ("Raízen Energia"), (ii) Fuel Distribution through its joint venture Raízen Combustíveis S.A. ("Raízen Combustíveis"), (iii) Logistics services including transportation, terminal loading and storage of sugar, through its indirect subsidiary, Rumo Logística Operadora Multimodal S.A. (“Rumo”), (iv) Production and distribution of lubricants under the Mobil licensed trademark in Brazil, Bolivia, Uruguay and Paraguay, in addition to the European and Asian market using the Comma brand, (v) Purchase, sale and leasing of agricultural land through its subsidiary, Radar Propriedades Agrícolas S.A. ("Radar"), and (vi) Piped natural gas distribution to part of the State of São Paulo through its subsidiary Companhia de Gás de São Paulo – COMGÁS (“COMGÁS”).

Main events in the quarter

As at October 24, 2012, the Company signed an Amendment to the Association Agreement and Other Covenants of May 28, 2012, with Camil Alimentos SA ("Camil") whereby it agreed the sale of all of the shares issued by its subsidiary, Docelar Alimentos e Bebidas S.A., for Camil, for a total price of R$ 293,770. Of this total, R$ 88,770 will be received in cash and the remaining R$ 205,000 will be divided into four installments. Docelar is no longer presented as part of the Company's financial information.

On November 5, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of 60.05% of Companhia de Gás de São Paulo (“COMGÁS) from BG Group for R$ 3.4 billion, financed by a R$ 3.3 billion loan which is to be paid over eight years, with a two year grace period and accruing interest at 123% of the CDI rate. Accordingly, COMGÁS has been consolidated into the Company’s financial information.


Summary of significant accounting policies

 
a. 
Basis of preparation

The consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and presented in a manner consistent with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information (“ITR”).

Cosan Limited
 
Notes to the quarterly information

(Amounts in thousands of Brazilian Reais – R$, unless otherwise stated)
 
 
This quarterly information have been prepared following the basis of preparation and the accounting policies, consistent with those adopted in the preparation of the financial statements as at March 31, 2012 and should be read in conjunction with them, in addition to the accounting policies stated below due to business combinations. Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings. The information notes that had no significant changes or irrelevant information compared to March 31, 2012 have not been fully presented in these financial statements.

Investment property

Investment property is property held to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both, rather than for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Investment property is measured at cost upon initial recognition, and subsequently at its fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in income as they are generated.

Concession contract

The subsidiary has a public concession contract for gas distribution, where the Granting Authority controls the services to be provided and their price, and holds a significant stake in the infrastructure at the end of the concession period. This concession contract represents the right to charge users for the supply of gas over the contract term. The subsidiary has recognized the concession as an intangible asset.

The construction of the necessary infrastructure for the distribution of gas is considered a service provided to the Granting Authority, and the corresponding revenue is recognized in income at the same amount as the cost. The financing costs directly related to the construction are also capitalized.

The subsidiary does not recognize any margin on the construction of infrastructure, as this margin is, for the most part, linked to outsourced services at values that reflect the fair value.  Additionally, there is no provision in the regulations of the Sanitation and Energy Regulatory Agency of the State of São Paulo (ARSESP)  allows margin on this activity.

Subject to the evaluation of the Granting Authority, the subsidiary has the option to apply for an extension of the distribution services longer than 20 years. Upon termination of the concession, the assets related to the provision of gas distribution service will revert to the Granting Authority, and the Company would be entitled to compensation to be determined based on surveys and assessments noting the carrying amounts to be determined at that time.

The disclosure of financial statements were authorized as at February 27, 2013.

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the group controls another entity. For subsidiaries in which the Company holds less than 50% of the voting shares, control is defined by: (i) the ability to appoint the majority of the Board and/or senior management of the subsidiary and, (ii) the ability to approve the main financial and operating decisions related the day-to-day business of the subsidiary.

 
c. 
New IFRS and IFRIC Interpretations Committee (Financial Reporting Interpretations of IASB) applicable to the quarterly information

New accounting pronouncements of the IASB and IFRIC interpretations have been published and/or reviewed, as presented below:

 
·
IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement

Classification and measurement - reflects the first phase of the IASB’s work on the replacement of IAS 39 - "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement". IFRS 9 uses a simplified approach to determining whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost or fair value, based on the manner in which an entity manages its financial instruments (the business model) and the typical contractual cash flow of financial assets. The standard also requires the adoption of only one method for determining losses in the recoverable values of assets. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Management is still evaluating the impact on its financial position or performance.

 
·
IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements

IFRS 10 as issued establishes principles for the presentation and preparation of consolidated financial statements when an entity controls one or more other entities. IFRS 10 replaces the consolidation requirements in SIC-12 - "Consolidation-Special-Purpose Entities" and IAS 27 - "Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements" and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. Management is still evaluating the impact on its financial position or performance of the adoption of IFRS 10.

·
IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements

IFRS 11 will significantly change the accounting for the Company's joint arrangements. The new standard eliminates inconsistencies in the reporting of joint arrangements in current practice, by requiring a single method (the equity method of accounting) to account for interests in jointly controlled entities. It eliminates the option to proportionally consolidate these jointly controlled entities. It is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and early adoption is permitted.

With the adoption of IFRS 11, currently expected for the nine-month period to ended on December 31, 2013, the Company's joint ventures (Raízen Energia and Raízen Combustíveis) currently presented via proportionate consolidation, will be presented using the equity method of accounting in accordance with IAS 28R - "Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures".

The total assets of these joint ventures represented approximately 43% of the consolidated totals as at December 31, 2012. The revenue, operating income and cash flow from the operating activities of these joint ventures accounted for approximately 86%, 57% and 69% respectively of the consolidated totals for the period ended December 31, 2012. A change from proportionate consolidation to equity method accounting would have no impact on the total equity or net income derived from these joint ventures, except that when using a proportional consolidation model, net income would be lower in the year of joint venture formation as the transaction costs would be expensed as incurred. When applying the equity method of accounting, those expenses would be considered as part of the cost of investment.

 
·  
IFRS 12 - Disclosure of Involvement with Other Entities

IFRS 12 is a new and comprehensive standard on disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other entities, including subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. IFRS 12 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. Management is still evaluating the impact on its financial position or performance of the adoption of IFRS 12.

 
·  
IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement

IFRS 13 establishes new requirements on how to measure fair value and the related disclosures for IFRS and US generally accepted accounting principles (USGAAP). The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted.

·
IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (revised in 2011)

As a consequence of the new IFRS 11 and IFRS 12, IAS 28 has been renamed IAS 28 - "Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures", and describes the application of the equity method to investments in joint ventures in addition to associates. The amendment becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.

There are no other pronouncements issued and yet to be adopted that may have a significant impact on the Company's operations and financial position.

 
d.
Reissuance of the Quarterly Financial Information

 
·
Reclassification of discontinued operations

After the closing and issuance of the Quarterly Financial Information related to the nine-month period ended December 31, 2012 were identified: (i) that the gain in the amount of R$ 177,818 and corresponding income tax of R$ 40,369 recognized upon sale of Docelar was not included in the results of Docelar that were presented as discontinued operations in nine-month period ended December 31, 2012, and, (ii) that the results of operations of Docelar that were sold during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2012  were not presented as discontinued operations for the comparative period (nine-month period ended December 31, 2011).

Consistent with the requirements of IFRS 5 – Non-current Assets Held-for-sale and Discontinued Operations, the Company is amending the presentation of its income statements (parent company and consolidated) for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and reissuing its Quarterly Financial Information.

(*) The segment information for Raízen Energia and Raízen Combustíveis represents 100% of the business, regardless of the fact that the Company lost full control of that business on June 1, 2011 with the formation of the JVs. The segment Raízen Energia represents basically the same information as was represented in prior periods by the "CAA" segment. The segment Raízen Combustíveis represents until May 31, 2011 the fuel business of the segment previously called CCL, except for the lubricants business, and since then also the business of fuel distribution of Shell Brazil Ltda. which was contributed to the JV. All of the non-current assets of the Company are located in the host country of the entity (Brazil).

(**) For the period of six months due to consolidation.

(***) For the period of two months due to consolidation.

(****) Management considers the EBITDA, or earnings before interest(financial results), income taxes, depreciation and amortization as its main measure of segment performance.

Analysis of loss on the recoverable amount for the cash-generating units containing goodwill

The Company tests annually (March 31) the recoverable amounts of intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, composed primarily of goodwill for expected future earnings arising from the processes of business combination and the formation of JVs. Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed whenever there are indications that the carrying amount is not recoverable.

During the period ended December 31, 2012, no indicators of impairment were identified that would trigger impairment testing by the Company.

Contingencies deemed to be probable losses - accrued

 
(a)  
Tax

The major taxation-related legal proceeding as at December 31 and March 31, 2012 are described as follow:

Description
 
December 31, 2012
   
March 31, 2012
 
IPC - 89 (i)
    83,232       82,173

      651,304       620,835  
 

 
(i)  
In 1993, Cosan Lubrificantes e Especialidades ("Cosan CLE") filed a suit to challenge the balance sheet restatement index (“IPC”) established by the Federal Government in 1989, considering that this index did not reflect the actual rate of inflation. The use of this index led the Company to overpay income and social contribution taxes. Cosan CLE obtained a favorable preliminary court ruling that allowed it to recalculate its financial position, using indices that better measured the inflation over the period. In doing so the Company adjusted the amounts of income and social contribution taxes payable and offset the overpayments for both taxes in subsequent years until 1997. Despite the favorable court rulings, the tax authorities issued a notice of infringement to the Company challenging all of the offset taxes whose values had been updated accrued. No judicial deposits were made for these processes.

 
(ii)  
During the period from October 2003 to November 2006 the subsidiary Cosan CL offset FINSOCIAL against several other federal taxes, based on a final court decision in September 2003 following a decision that challenged the constitutionality of the FINSOCIAL. No judicial deposits were made for these processes.

(iii)  
Prior to the formation of the JV, Raízen Combustíveis, formerly Shell Brasil Ltda, recorded CIDE on services provided from operations. This contingency will be reimbursed by Shell if any payment is required, and an equivalent amount is recorded as related parties. There are judicial deposits related to these processes, amounting to R$ 170,835.

 
(iv)  
The provision for ICMS credits is made up of: (a) the tax assessment received, in which, despite the defense filed at the administrative and judicial levels, the legal counsel of the Company understand it is more likely than not that a loss will occur, (b) the recovery of credits and financial charges relating to issues on which the Company's management has a differing view from the tax authorities. There are judicial deposits related to these processes, amounting to R$ 8,392.

 
(b)
Civil and labor claims

The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities are parties to a number of civil claims related to (i) indemnity for physical and moral damages, (ii) public civil claims related to sugarcane stubble burning, and (iii) environmental matters.

The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities are also parties to a number of labor claims filed by former employees and service providers challenging, among other factors, the payment of additional hours, night shift premiums and risk premiums, employment inclusion, and the reimbursement of discounts from payroll such as social contributions and trade union charges, among others.

Judicial claims deemed as possible losses, and therefore accrued

 
(a)
Tax claims

The main tax claims for which an unfavorable outcome is deemed possible and for which, therefore, no provision for legal claims was recorded in the financial statements, are as follow:
 
   
December 31, 2012
   
March 31, 2012
 
Withholding income taxes (i)
    210,390       204,249

Notes to the quarterly information

(Amounts in thousands of Brazilian Reais – R$, unless otherwise stated)

 
 
(i)  
Tax assessment - withholding income tax

In September 2006 the Federal Revenue Service served another notice of infringement on the Company, this time for failure to withhold and pay income tax at source on capital gains derived from the acquisition of a subsidiary.

 
(ii)  
ICMS

Refers mainly to (i) Tax Assessment filed for alleged lack of payment of ICMS and non-compliance with accessory obligations, in connection with the partnership and manufacturing upon demand, with Central Paulista Açúcar e Álcool Ltda., between May to December 2006 and May to December 2007, and (ii) ICMS levied on the remittances of crystallized sugar for export purposes. In accordance with the tax agent, this product is classified as a semi-finished product and, in accordance with the ICMS regulations, would be subject to taxation, (iii) ICMS levied on possible differences in terms of sugar and alcohol inventory, arising from digital tax files and Inventory Registry Books, (iv) ICMS on rate differences due to ethanol sales to companies located in other states, which, thereafter, had their registrations revoked, and (v) disallowance of tax credits resulting from the acquisition of diesel used in the production process.

 
(iii)  
IPI – Federal VAT

SRF Normative Instruction no 67/98 approved the procedures adopted by the industrial establishments which performed remittances without registration and payment of IPI, in relation to transfers of sugarcane carried out between July 6, 1995 and November 16, 1997 and of refined sugar between January 14, 1992 and November 16, 1997. This rule was considered in the proceedings filed by the Federal Revenue Secretariat against the Company, for which an unfavorable outcome is deemed possible, following the advice of the Company's legal counsel.

 
(iv)  
Offsettings against IPI credits – IN 67/98

SRF Normative Instruction no. 67/98 allowed the refunding of IPI tax payments for sales of refined sugar from January 14, 1992 through November 16, 1997. Consequently the Company applied for the offsetting of amounts paid during the periods against other tax liabilities. However, the tax authorities denied its application for both the reimbursement and offsetting of these amounts. The Company has challenged this ruling in an administrative proceeding.

Upon being notified to pay tax debts resulting from offset transactions in light of certain changes introduced by IN SRF no. 210/02, the Company filed a writ of mandamus and applied for a preliminary seeking to stay the enforceability of offset taxes, in an attempt to prevent the tax authorities from pursuing the relevant tax debts in court. The preliminary injunction was granted by the court.

(v)  
INSS

Refers mainly to tax assessments received and defended by the legal counsel, concerning social security contribution on: (i) stock option plans, (ii) export sales, and (iii) the resale of materials for companies under common control and suppliers.

 
(vi)  
PIS and COFINS

Refers mainly to the reversal of PIS and COFINS credits, provided by Laws 10.637/2002 and 10.833/2003, respectively. Those reversals arise from a differing interpretation of the laws by the tax authorities in relation to raw materials. These discussions are still at the administrative level.

 
(vii)
IR/CSLL – Assessment Notice

In December 2011, the Company received notices of violations amounting to R$ 400,318, drawn up by the tax authorities in relation to the income tax and social calendar years 2006 to 2009, questioning: (i) the deductibility of expenses for the amortization of certain goodwill, (ii) the offsetting of tax losses and negative social contribution calculations, and (iii) tax on revaluation differences of the property included in fixed assets. The Company filed its defense in January 2012 and, together with its legal advisors, and has classified the risk as possible, with a loss amount of R$ 204,221. The remaining R$ 327,710 refers to various other claims in connection with income taxes and social contributions in several legal entities pertaining the subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities.

 
(b)  
Civil and labor

Financial risk management

Overview

The Company is exposed to the following risk related to the use of financial instruments:

· Price risk.
· Foreign exchange rates.
· Interest rates.
· Credit risk.
· Liquid risk.

This note presents information about the exposure of the Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities to the above risks, as well as the objectives of the Company's risk management policies, the polices and processes for the measurement and management of risk, and for capital management.

Risk management structure

The risks inherent to each type of business market are managed and monitored by the Company and, where applicable, risk committees are convened to discuss and determine the hedginge strategy of the company in accordance with its policies and guidelines. There is, in Raízen Energia, a Risk Committee that meets weekly to analyze the behavior of commodity markets (mainly sugar) and exchange rates, and to decide on the coverage position and sugar pricing strategy for export, seeking to reduce the adverse effects of changes in prices and exchange rates, as well as monitoring liquidity risk and counterparty risk (credit risk).
 
The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities are exposed to market risks, of which the most significant are: (i) the volatility of the prices of sugar and ethanol, (ii) the

Notes to the quarterly information

(Amounts in thousands of Brazilian Reais – R$, unless otherwise stated)

 
volatility of the exchange rate, and (iii) volatility in interest rates. The usage of financial instruments in order to protect against these areas of volatility is determined through an analysis of the risk exposure that management intends to cover.

COMGÁS executed future exchange contracts and currency swap commitments at values equal to the cash flow exposure under trading. For all values above US$ 500,000, the minimum hedge to be contracted must be 75% of the notional value, according to internal policy.

As at December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2012, the fair values relating to transactions involving derivative financial instruments for hedging or other purposes were measured at market value (fair value) using observables such as quoted prices in active markets, or discounted cash flow based on market curves, and are presented below:

Price risk

This arises from the potential for fluctuations in the market prices of products sold by the Raízen Energia, mainly raw material sugar - VHP (sugar NY#11) and white sugar (London#5 and White Sugar). These fluctuations in prices can cause substantial changes in revenue. To mitigate these risks, Raízen Energia constantly monitors the markets, seeking to anticipate changes in prices. The consolidated derivative financial instrument positions taken to hedge the price risks of commodities are shown in the table below:

The fair values of these derivatives were measured using observable factors, such as quoted prices in active markets and, in some cases, by means of models whose assumptions are observable in the market.

Foreign Exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk arises from the possibility of fluctuations in the exchange rates of the foreign currencies used by the Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities for receiving export revenue from products, imports, debt cash flow and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency. The subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities use derivative transactions to manage the foreign exchange risk on cash flow coming from the export revenue denominated in US Dollars, net of any other cash flow denominated in foreign currency. In COMGÁS, the treasury policy determines the hedging of the principal and interest until the final maturity of the loan transaction, for at least 75% of the total gross value (notional value), being the instrument of protection (hedge) only swaps and forwards. The table below shows the consolidated positions as at December 31, 2012 of derivatives used to hedge exchange rates:

Hedge accounting effect

The jointly-controlled entity Raízen Energia formally designated its transactions subject to hedge accounting for cash flow hedges from sugar VHP (raw material) export revenue, documenting: (i) the relationship of the hedge, (ii) the reason for taking the hedge and the relevant risk management strategy, (iii) identification of the financial instrument, (iv) the transaction or item covered, (v) the nature of the risk being hedged against, (vi) a description of the hedging relationship (vii) a demonstration of the correlation between the hedge and the object of coverage, and (viii) the prospective analysis of the hedge’s effectiveness. The derivative financial instruments of Sugar # 11 (“NYBOT” or “OTC”) were designated to cover the price risk and the Non-Deliverable Forwards (“NDFs”) to cover exchange rate risk, as demonstrated in items of this Note.

The Company records gains and losses deemed effective for the purposes of hedge accounting in a specific account in other comprehensive income, until the object of coverage (the hedged item) affects the profit and loss. As at December 31, 2012, the amounts recorded in other comprehensive income related to hedge accounting were as follow:

Interest rate risk

The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities monitor the fluctuations in the variable interest rates in connection with certain debts, especially those related to of LIBOR, and make use of derivative instruments in order to minimize these risks. In July 2012, the Company held an intercompany swap operation, between Raízen Combustíveis and Raízen Energia, where Raízen Energia received a fixed rate in Dollars and paied 100% of CDI.

Credit risk

A significant portion of the sales made by the subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities are to a select group of best-in-class counterparties (i.e. trading companies, fuel distribution companies and large supermarket chains). In the subsidiary COMGÁS, it is corroborated that there is no concentration of credit for major consumers, with no one customer accounting for more than 10% of sales volume. Therefore, this risk is attenuated by selling to a large and diversified customer base.

Credit risk is managed through specific rules regarding client acceptance, including credit ratings and limits for customer exposure, including the requirement for a letter of credit from a major

Notes to the quarterly information

(Amounts in thousands of Brazilian Reais – R$, unless otherwise stated)
 
 
bank and obtaining actual warranties on given credit, when applicable, Management believes that the credit risk is adequately covered by the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The Company buys and sells commodity derivatives on the futures and options markets on the New York Board of Trade (“NYBOT”) and the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange (“LIFFE”), as well on the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market with selected counterparties. The Company and its jointly-controlled entities buy and sell foreign exchange derivatives on BM&FBOVESPA, and OTC contracts registered with CETIP (an OTC clearing house) with the banks Espírito Santo Investimento do Brasil S.A., Deutsche Bank S.A. - Banco JP Morgan S.A. and Banco Santander S.A. The derivatives for interest rate swaps, which protect against fluctuations in Libor, was contracted with Goldman Sachs do Brasil Banco Multiplo S.A. and the intercompany derivatives between Raízen Energia and Raízen Combustível were registered at BM&FBOVESPA with a broker as intermediary.

 
·  
Guarantee margins

The Company's derivatives operations on commodity exchanges (NYBOT, LIFFE and BM&FBOVESPA) require an initial guarantee margin, and the brokers with which the Company operates on these commodity exchanges offer credit limits for these margins, As at December 31, 2012, the total credit limit used as the initial margin required by the NYBOT was R$ 35,948 (R$ 62,247 as at March 31, 2012). As a requirement to trade on BMF&BOVESPA, the Company posted on December 31, 2012, the amount of R$ 85,480 (R$ 76,436 as at March 31, 2012) as a guarantee in the form of a settlement bond issued by a first-class banking institution.

Liquid risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities will encounter difficulties meeting the obligations associated with its derivative financial liabilities that are settled with cash payments or other financial assets. The approach of the Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities to liquidity management is to ensure, as much as possible, that it always has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations due, under normal and stress situations, without causing unacceptable losses or risking damage to the reputation of the Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities.

Fair value

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is included in the price at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between parties willing to negotiate, and not in a forced sale or liquidation. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value.

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other short-term obligations approximate their respective carrying values due largely to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The fair value of marketable securities and bonds is based on price quotations on the date of the financial statements. The fair value of non-negotiable instruments, bank loans and other debts,
 
 
 
69

 
Cosan Limited
 
Notes to the quarterly information

(Amounts in thousands of Brazilian Reais – R$, unless otherwise stated)
 
 
obligations under finance leases, as well as other non-current financial liabilities, are estimated using discounted future cash flow at the rates currently available for debt or similar deadlines and remaining.

The fair market values of Senior Notes due in 2014 and 2017, described in Note 17, at their market value are 113.9% and 111.51% respectively of the face value of the Notes as at December 31, 2012.

The fair market value of the Perpetual bonds described in Note 17 at their market value is 110.45% of its face value as at December 31, 2012.

of the fair market values of other loans and financing substantially approximate the amounts recorded in the financial statements, due to the fact that these financial instruments are subject to variable interest rates.

The fair value of financial assets available for sale, if any is obtained through quoted market prices in active markets.

The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities enter into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, primarily financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings. The derivatives valued using valuation techniques and observable market data relate mainly to interest rate swaps, foreign exchange contracts and term contracts for commodities futures. The valuation techniques applied more often include pricing models for fixed-term contracts and swaps, with a present value calculation. The models incorporate various data, including the credit quality of counterparties, the rates of currency spot and forward contracts, interest rate curves and forward rate curves of the underlying commodities.

Fair value hierarchy

The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities use the following hierarchy to determine and disclose the fair values of financial instruments determined using technical evaluations:

 
·
Level 1 - quoted prices in a active market for identical assets and liabilities;

 
·
Level 2 - other techniques for which all of the data having a significant effect on the fair value recorded are observable, directly or indirectly;

 
·
Level 3 - techniques that use data having a significant effect on the fair value recorded that are not based on observable market data.

Sensitivity analysis

The 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, its subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities:

Assumptions for sensitivity analysis

For the analysis, the Company adopted three scenarios, one probable and two that may have effects the from impairment of the fair value of the financial instruments. The probable scenario was defined based on the sugar futures and US Dollar market curves as at December 31, 2012, which determines the fair values of the derivatives at that date. Stressed scenarios were defined based on adverse impacts of 25% and 50% on the sugar and Dollar price curvesyou are over-explaining here.

Sensitivity analysis

The following is the sensitivity analysis of the change in the fair value of the Company's financial derivatives, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities in the probable scenarios on consolidated version:

Pension plan

Defined benefit

The Company's subsidiary Cosan Lubrificantes e Especialidades S.A. has a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan (Futura, formerly Previd Exxon) covering certain employees upon retirement. This plan was altered to allow its settlement and was approved by the relevant authority on May 5, 2011. The settlement is the process whereby the plan is closed to any new entrants, with the cessation of contributions, guaranteeing the participants a benefit that is in proportion to the rights they had accumulated under the plan up until March 31, 2011.

Defined contribution

Since June 1, 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries have sponsored a variable contribution plan for all employees (Futura II). The Company does not have a legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not have sufficient assets to pay all of the benefits owed. During the period ended December 31, 2012 the amount of contributions totaled R$ 3,444.

Since June 1, 2011, the jointly-controlled entities have sponsored a defined contribution plan, for all employees (Raiz Prev). The jointly-controlled entities do not have a legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not have sufficient assets to pay all of the benefits owed. During the period ended December 31, 2012 the amount of contributions totaled R$ 4,207.

The subsidiary COMGÁS offers a supplementary retirement plan, granted by a defined contribution program, through a Free Benefits Generator Plan (“PGBL”). During the period ended December 31, 2012, the amount of sponsors' contributions to the plan totaled R$ 4,437.

Share-based payments

At the shareholders’ meeting held on July 29, 2011, the guidelines for the stock option compensation plans for Cosan S.A.'s officers and employees were approved, authorizing the issue of up to 5% of shares of Cosan S.A.'s total capital. This stock option plan was designed to attract and retain officers and key employees, offering them the opportunity to become Cosan S.A. shareholders.

On August 18, 2011, Cosan S.A.'s board of directors approved the total stock option grant corresponding up to 12,000,000 common shares to be issued or treasury shares held by Cosan S.A., corresponding to 2.41% of the share capital at that time.

During the period ended December 31, 2012, R$ 9,971 had been recognized as expenses related to the stock option plan. The remaining contractual term of the weighted average for stock options remaining as at December 31, 2012 was 2 years.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated interim financial information, contained in the Quarterly Financial Information (ITR) of Cosan Limited, comprising the statement of financial position and the related statements of income, comprehensive income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2011, changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2011, including the explanatory notes.

Management is responsible for the consolidated interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as for the fair presentation of this information in conformity with specific rules issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Financial Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Review Engagements (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion on the consolidated interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated interim financial information included in the quarterly information referred to above is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of quarterly information (ITR), consistently with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM).
