A MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD Marcopolo has got the satisfaction to present the first Sustainability Report of its operations in Brazil. This report has been done according to the methodology of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). Since its founding, in 1949, Marcopolo shows its worry about the welfare of its employees and the communities where it’s inserted. So early the company created programs of motivation, gratitude and valorization of its employees, being ahead on themes related to career, capitation and benefits. Action to improve the environmental conditions, such as effluent treatment stations and meeting the requirements of the certification norms, are part of the company goal and they are in constant improving. Marcopolo believes and defends the idea that investments in urban mobility have to increase in the next years all over the world. Otherwise, traffic will be always more chaotic in the big cities, principally with the increasing of population and the main choice of an individual transport. There is also a pressure of the environmental regulators to reduce the emission of harmful gases produced by vehicles, which contribute to the global warming and they cause damages to human health. For these reasons mobility will occur using collective transport, like buses, trains, underground or other alternatives that will be developed.

A MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD

As a bus manufacturer, Marcopolo aims to help the future world to move in a sustainable way. Its products line includes models for highway transportation, urban transportation, micros and mini bus. For more than a decade, Marcopolo identified the need to offer a vehicle for collective transportation able to face lines that were not attended regularly in an agile and fast way. The result was the creation of Volare, a minibus with 32 people capacity and adaptable to several market segments. Volare has excelled in school transport through the “Programa Federal Caminho da Escola” (School Path Federal Program), complying the safety norms and facilitating the access to school for children. Marcopolo engineering has as one of its goal the developing of products that use cleaner manufacturing technologies, have larger recycling capacity at its final disposal and also gradually use more recycled materials. Furthermore advanced aerodynamic concepts and latest generation structural concepts produce lighter and less resistant to air buses economizing fuels.

There are currently 16 Continuous Amelioration Teams and 107 groups of Improvement Suggestions in the Marcopolo Environment (SUMAM). These teams and groups contribute to the identification of opportunity for improvement of the environment, in the process and in the product, offering solutions of practical applicability and the return of the investment in the short to medium term. Marcopolo invests in the modernization of its production processes with the acquisition of machinery and equipment of last generation, innovations of methods and processes aimed at providing improvements to the ergonomic, health and safety of its employees. Two tears ago the Company started a deeper study about Sustainability, creating a Commission formed by representatives of economic, social and environmental areas. Marcopolo also contracted specialized consulting and it performed seminaries for the alignment of knowledge of the executives about the theme, which allowed the identification of opportunities for improvement in the various areas of the enterprise. Although Marcopolo has published, since 1998, Social Balance Sheets that follow the model “Ibase”. A complementary analysis of the Sustainability Commission indicated the need to relate the activities of the Company using the indicators of the Global Reporting Initiative, as a way to enlarge the account performance to the stakeholders about the theme and what still has to be developed in the company. The indicators used in this GRI edition will be included in the Balanced Score Card of the company for year 2013. Marcopolo comprehends the need to enlarge the Sustainabiliy Commission performance, too, including the representatives of the different areas of organization, as well as the need to promote the engagement of the stakeholders about the sustainability discussion. Furthermore, the Company cares for the good practices of Corporate Governance and for the standards of conduct that must be reflected in the relationship among the people who take part of the Marcopolo context. In this way, Marcopolo understands that it’s taking important steps to make sustainability part of the permanent schedule of priorities, influencing the business strategies of the company, its people management practices and its performance in the society.

For the director of Marcopolo, Valter Gomes Pinto, the documentation center is a gift to all employees and their families, as well as for the community. “Preserving the past is a way to honor all those people who have been part of a story and also allow the future generations to learn and grow up from experiences already lived,” says the director.

Created in 2005, Moneo Bank acts in the national financial market, investment portfolios, leasing, financing and investment. Its main objective is to enable the company’s customers to access to credit lines to purchase the buses of the manufacturer.

COMUNICATION CHANNELS Marcopolo invests in powerful communication tools and keeps open channels with all its stakeholders.

RELATIONSHIP WITH EMPLOYEES The slogan “Marcopolo, bringing people together” summarizes the company’s desire to improve the quality of people’s lives through the transportation it offers. Internally, the same slogan applies to the initiatives of the Company regarding communication with its employees. Through various means of communication like murals, intranet, internal news paper and special campaigns, Marcopolo has kept its collaborators well informed. Besides, the Department of Internal Communication periodically conducts surveys to evaluate the communication process between the company and its employees, reaching in this ambit 78% satisfaction in Caxias do Sul and 75% in Ciferal in 2011. Communication tools are constantly evolving, with significant changes scheduled for 2012. Contact with the unions is also a constant practice in the Company. Issues that affect the daily lives of the employees are taken into account together with the

Following global trends on sustainable activity, the Engineering area was challenged to consider the environmental impact and the occupational health and safety during production and manufacturing of a new car seat. The seat for the new generation of road vehicles, launched in 2009, had its development based on extensive market research, listening to the direct and indirect customers. Thereafter was defined the project entry data, introducing sustainability requirements as criteria for minimizing waste and emissions, final disposal after use and ergonomic adequacy in the implementation phase. The “ecodesign” is an important factor, capable of influencing changes not only in the design per se but in business strategies too, affecting decisions that were not considered in the past.

EMERGENCIES Over the past three years the units Caxias do Sul and Rio de Janeiro did not record any significant spillage of pollutants in the environment.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPROVEMENTS In its policy to improve environmental processes and mitigate the impacts resulting from its products and services, Marcopolo invested on the betterment of management and treatment. The Wastewater Treatment Plant of Ana Rech, in Caxias do Sul, has been expanded with the installation of a tertiary treatment unit to reduce phosphorus and nitrogen residues and to convert the

From 2009 to 2011, Marcopolo’s investments in environment protection in Caxias do Sul and Rio de Janeiro totaled R$ 15,006,186.00

WASTE PRODUCTS The units of Caxias do Sul and Rio de Janeiro generated 78,200 tons of waste in the period 2009-2011. Of that total, 85.5% were non-hazardous. The main destination was recycling, accounting for 66%. The remainder has been co-processed, sent to landfill or underwent treatment elsewhere.

growth of the GDP, although it is not possible to identify clearly the consequences and impacts of the crisis in the Euro zone. The demand for buses in Brazil should continue rising in the coming years. Investments in urban infrastructure in order to improve the mobility of the population have encouraged the renewal of the Brazilian fleet of buses as well as the implementation of new solutions for public transportation. The sporting events this country will shortly host, among which the Confederations Cup 2013, World Cup 2014 and the 2016 Olympic Games, are the main promoters of these investments. In 2012, the factors that should support the demand for buses are: The municipal elections in October (event that usually generates renewal of the urban fleet of buses); The first deliveries of BRT’s busses;

There is also favorable financing conditions for capital goods through FINAME BNDES (a financing body). In foreign markets, the outlook for 2012 is also positive. Important deals on exports from Brazil are being signed. Regarding subsidiaries and affiliates, the highlights are still the joint venture in India, where the expectation lies on increasing production and the release of new models; and the Superpolo in Colombia, where the market remains warm. It is also noteworthy that the Marcopolo formalized the acquisition of 75% of the Australian company Volgren, to be consolidated on February first, 2012. According to a statement released by the Company on December 16, 2011 and revised on August 6, 2012, performance expectations for 2012 are: planned investments totaling R$ 220 million; reaching consolidat-

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY The Company and its collaborators exercise social responsibility under the coordination of Marcopolo Foundation (in Caxias do Sul and Duque de Caxias) through various programs and projects. The Foundation also conducts monthly contributions to social institutions related to health and education, highlighting the support to the Oncology service, of the General Hospital in Caxias do Sul, which serves patients of the SUS (Unified Health System). In units outside Brazil, specific actions are performed according to the needs of the local community, with special attention to demands on health and education. Marcopolo, Banco Moneo and Ciferal (RJ) pass 1% of Income Tax Due to the Municipal Fund for the Rights of Children and Adolescents in the cities of Caxias do Sul (RS) and Duque de Caxias (RJ), where the factories are installed.

INFRASTRUCTURE The Marcopolo Foundation provides employees and their families Recreational Venues (in Caxias do Sul and Rio de Janeiro) with modern infrastructure for the development of cultural, artistic and sports activities. Among those the highlights are the Festivals of June and July, dances, tours to touristic attractions and cultural events like Entrevero Farroupilha and the traditional Christmas party, as well as various sports and recreational events. The activities developed by the Foundation to the employees go beyond the boundaries of the factories, promoting quality of life and well-being of each employee and their families in society.
