The 2029 Notes Tender Offer is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in a separate offer to purchase with respect to the 2029 Notes dated April 7, 2022 (the "2029 Notes Offer to Purchase" and, together with the 2026 Notes Offer Documents, the "Offer Documents").

There is no letter of transmittal for the Tender Offers.

The Tender Offers are subject to certain conditions as described in each of the Offer Documents under the heading "Conditions of the Tender Offer."

Summary of the 2026 Notes Tender Offer

The 2026 Notes Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 13, 2022, or such other date and time to which Ultrapar in its sole discretion extends the 2026 Notes Tender Offer (such date and time, as it may be extended, the "2026 Notes Expiration Date"). Other than accepted 2026 Notes delivered pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described in the 2026 Notes Offer Documents, holders of the 2026 Notes must validly tender their 2026 Notes at or prior to the 2026 Notes Expiration Date and not validly withdraw them at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 13, 2022 (the "2026 Notes Withdrawal Deadline") in order to be eligible to receive the Purchase Price.

The purchase price for the 2026 Notes is U.S.$1,027.50 per U.S.$1,000 in principal amount of 2026 Notes (the "Purchase Price") accepted in the 2026 Notes Tender Offer.

Tendered 2026 Notes may only be validly withdrawn at any time at or prior to the 2026 Notes Withdrawal Deadline and not thereafter. Guaranteed delivery procedures provided for by Ultrapar are available for the 2026 Notes and will allow holders who deliver a duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery and other required documents at or prior to the 2026 Notes Expiration Date to deliver their 2026 Notes by the close of business on the second business day following the 2026 Notes Expiration Date. The guaranteed delivery procedures that must be followed are described in the 2026 Notes Offer Documents.

Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions of the 2026 Notes Tender Offer, (i) payment for the 2026 Notes that are validly tendered and accepted for purchase (other than accepted 2026 Notes delivered pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described in the 2026 Notes Offer Documents) is expected to be made on April 14, 2022 (as such date may be extended in Ultrapar's sole discretion, subject to applicable law, the "2026 Notes Settlement Date") and (ii) payment for the 2026 Notes that are validly tendered and accepted for purchase that are delivered pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described in the 2026 Notes Offer Documents is expected to be made on April 18, 2022 (as such date may be extended in Ultrapar's sole discretion, subject to applicable law, the "Guaranteed Delivery Settlement Date").

Summary of the 2029 Notes Tender Offer

The 2029 Notes Tender Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m. New York City time, on May 4, 2022, unless extended or earlier terminated (such date and time, as it may be extended, the "2029 Notes Expiration Date").  The early tender deadline for the 2029 Notes Tender Offer will be 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 20, 2022 (such date and time, as it may be extended, the "Early Tender Date"). 2029 Notes tendered may be withdrawn prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 20, 2022 (such date and time, the "2029 Notes Withdrawal Deadline"), but not thereafter, except as required by applicable law. Holders of the 2029 Notes must validly tender their 2029 Notes on or before the Early Tender Date and not validly withdraw them at or prior to the 2029 Notes Withdrawal Deadline in order to be eligible to receive the Total Consideration (as defined below).

Holders of the 2029 Notes who validly tender their 2029 Notes on or before the Early Tender Date, do not validly withdraw them at or prior to the 2029 Notes Withdrawal Deadline and whose 2029 Notes are accepted will, subject to the terms and conditions in the 2029 Notes Offer to Purchase, receive U.S.$1,001.25 per U.S.$1,000 in principal amount of 2029 Notes accepted in the 2029 Notes Tender Offer (the "Total Consideration"), which is comprised of consideration of U.S.$971.25 per U.S.$1,000 in principal amount (the "Tender Offer Consideration") and an early tender premium of U.S.$30.00 per U.S.$1,000 in principal amount (the "Early Tender Payment").  Holders of the 2029 Notes who validly tender their 2029 Notes after the Early Tender Date but on or before the 2029 Notes Expiration Date will only be eligible to receive the Tender Offer Consideration.

Tendered 2029 Notes may only be validly withdrawn at any time at or prior to the 2029 Notes Withdrawal Deadline and not thereafter. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions of the 2029 Notes Tender Offer, the Total Consideration for the 2029 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or prior to the Early Tender Date is expected to be paid on April 22, 2022 (as such date may be extended, subject to applicable law, in Ultrapar's sole discretion, the "Early Settlement Date").  The Tender Offer Consideration for the 2029 Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date but on or prior to the 2029 Notes Expiration Date is expected to be paid on May 6, 2022 (as such date may be extended, subject to applicable law, in Ultrapar's sole discretion, the "Final Settlement Date").

The 2029 Notes Tender Offer shall not exceed the 2029 Maximum Acceptance Amount, corresponding to U.S.$550,003,000, minus the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes tendered and accepted for purchase in the 2026 Notes Tender Offer.  Accordingly, the 2029 Maximum Acceptance Amount will be impacted by the results of the 2026 Tender Offer and will be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes tendered and accepted for purchase.  As a result, the 2029 Notes that are validly tendered and accepted for purchase are subject to possible proration on the Early Settlement Date or the Final Settlement Date to the extent 2029 Notes are tendered in principal amounts that would otherwise exceed the 2029 Maximum Acceptance Amount and Maximum Aggregate Tender Amount.

If, on the Early Settlement Date or Final Settlement Date, as applicable, only a portion of outstanding 2029 Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the 2029 Notes Withdrawal Deadline) may be accepted for purchase, the aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes accepted for purchase will be prorated based upon the aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes that have been validly tendered and not yet accepted for purchase in the 2029 Notes Tender Offer, such that neither the 2029 Maximum Acceptance Amount nor the Maximum Aggregate Tender Amount will be exceeded.

If the aggregate amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or prior to the Early Tender Date exceeds the Maximum Aggregate Tender Amount, holders who validly tender 2029 Notes after the Early Tender Date will not have any such 2029 Notes accepted for payment, unless waived or modified in Ultrapar's sole discretion (subject to applicable law and as provided in the 2029 Notes Offer to Purchase).

Payment of Accrued Interest

Ultrapar will pay accrued and unpaid interest on Notes validly tendered and accepted in the Tender Offers from and including the last interest payment date for such Notes up to, but not including, (i) in the case of the 2026 Notes, the 2026 Notes Settlement Date, (ii) in the case of any 2029 Notes tendered on or before the Early Tender Date, the Early Settlement Date and (iii) in the case of any 2029 Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date, the Final Settlement Date.

For avoidance of doubt, interest on the 2026 Notes will cease to accrue on the 2026 Notes Settlement Date for all 2026 Notes purchased in the 2026 Notes Tender Offer, including those tendered pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described in the 2026 Notes Offer Documents. Accordingly, because Ultrapar expects that the Guaranteed Delivery Settlement Date will be two business days after the 2026 Notes Settlement Date, holders tendering 2026 Notes pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures will not receive interest for such two business day period.
