single class for all purposes under the indenture governing the notes, and will vote together as one class on all matters with the original notes.
The original notes and the additional notes will share the same ISIN and CUSIP numbers and be fungible, except that the additional notes offered
and sold in offshore transactions under Regulation S shall be issued and maintained under temporary ISIN and CUSIP numbers during a 40-day

interest, at any time upon the occurrence of specified events relating to the tax laws of Brazil, as set forth in this offering memorandum.
If a specified change of control event as described herein occurs, unless the issuer has previously exercised its option to redeem the
notes, the issuer will be required to offer to purchase the notes at the price described in this offering memorandum.

Securities Act and Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
These statements appear in a number of places in this offering memorandum, principally in "Risk Factors,"
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," "The Cement Industry"
and "Business." Such estimates and forward-looking statements are primarily based on current expectations and
projections about future events and financial trends that affect, or may affect, the issuer's business, financial
condition, results of operations and prospects.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and
assumptions because they relate to future events and, therefore, depend on circumstances that may or may not occur
in the future. Our future results may differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by these
forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results are beyond our ability to control
or predict. Investors are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. We do not
undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements contained in this offering
memorandum to reflect later events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Investors should understand that the following important factors, in addition to those discussed in this
offering memorandum, could affect our future results and could cause results to differ materially from those
expressed in such forward-looking statements:
·
general economic, political and business conditions, both in Brazil and abroad;
·
our management's expectations and estimates concerning our future financial performance,
financing plans and programs, and the effects of competition;
·
our level of capitalization and debt;
·
availability and cost of funding;
·
weather conditions;
·
natural disasters and other unforeseen events;
·
our plans regarding capital expenditures;
·
anticipated trends and competition in the Brazilian cement market;
·
interest rate fluctuations, inflation and changes in the exchange rate of the real in relation to the
U.S. dollar;
·
regulatory environment, including environmental, tax and acquisition-related rules and
regulations;
·
credit risk, market risk and other risks of lending and investment activities;
·
loss of clients and related lower revenues;
·
our ability to sustain or improve our operating performance and implement our business strategies
successfully;

·
other risks as set forth under "Risk Factors."

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Financial Information
The financial information included in this offering memorandum was derived from our audited
consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 and from our
unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2014 and for the six-month periods
ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, which were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards, or IFRS, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, or IASB, and accounting practices
adopted in Brazil, or Brazilian GAAP. Brazilian GAAP is based on the Brazilian Corporate Law No. 6,404, as
amended, or the Brazilian Corporate Law; the rules and regulations of the CVM; and accounting pronouncements,
guidance and interpretations issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (Comitê de Pronunciamentos
Contábeis), or CPC, and approved by the CVM and by the Accounting Federal Council (Conselho Federal de
Contabilidade), or CFC.
The auditors' reports related to our individual financial statements as of and for the years December 31,
2013 and 2012 contain an emphasis of matter paragraph referring to the fact that our individual financial statements
were prepared in accordance with Brazilian GAAP. In the case of our individual financial statements, these
practices differ from IFRS, applicable to our consolidated financial statements, only with respect to the valuation of
investments in subsidiaries by the equity method, while for IFRS purposes they would be valued at cost or fair
value.
In this offering memorandum, unless otherwise specified, references to "R$," "real" or "reais" are to
Brazilian reais, the official currency of Brazil; references to "U.S.$," "US$," "$," "U.S. dollars" or "dollars" are to
United States dollars.
Non-GAAP Measures
In this offering memorandum and to be consistent with industry practice, we include certain non-GAAP
financial measures which are not recognized under Brazilian GAAP or IFRS as part of our financial disclosure,
including "EBITDA," "EBITDA margin," and "Adjusted EBITDA."We define EBITDA as net income (loss)
adjusted by financial expenses; financial income; income taxes; and any depreciation, amortization or depletion. We
define "Adjusted EBITDA" as EBITDA plus non-recurring income (expenses). We define "EBITDA margin" as
Adjusted EBITDA divided by net operating revenue. Accordingly, these non-GAAP items do not have standardized
meanings and may not be directly comparable to similarly-titled items adopted by other entities. Potential investors
should not rely on information not recognized under Brazilian GAAP or IFRS as a substitute for the GAAP
measures of earnings, in making an investment decision. Additionally, our definition of EBITDA may not be
comparable to the EBITDA defined and presented by other companies. For reconciliation from our net income
(loss) to EBITDA, see "Selected Financial Information--Other Financial Information."
Our management believes that the presentation of certain non-GAAP measures provides additional useful
information to investors regarding our performance and trends related to our results of operations. Accordingly, we
believe that when non-GAAP financial information is viewed with GAAP financial information, investors are
provided with a more meaningful understanding of our ongoing operating performance and financial results.
Market Information
The information contained in this offering memorandum relating to Brazil and the Brazilian economy is
based on information published by the Brazilian Central Bank (Banco Central do Brasil), or Central Bank, and by
other public entities and by independent sources, including the Brazilian Geography and Statistics Institute (Instituto
Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística), or IBGE, among others. We have used the following sources to obtain
market share and other related data: the National Cement Industry Union (Sindicato Nacional da Indústria do
Cimento), or SNIC; the Association of Technical Standards (Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas), or ABNT;
the Brazilian Portland Cement Association (Associação Brasileira de Cimento Portland), or ABCP; the Brazilian
Construction Material Industry Association (Associação Brasileira da Indústria de Materiais de Construção), or
Abramat; the European Cement Association, or Cembureau.

Industry publications generally state that the information presented therein has been obtained from sources
believed to be reliable, but the accuracy and completeness of such information is not guaranteed. Similarly, internal
surveys, industry publications or forecasts and market research, while believed to be reliable, have not been
independently verified by us or the initial purchasers, and neither we nor the initial purchasers make any
representations as to the accuracy or completeness of any such information. Additionally, all 2013 and 2014
industry data from SNIC is preliminary as of the date of this offering memorandum.
Exchange Rates
Unless otherwise indicated, we have translated certain real amounts included in this offering memorandum
into U.S. dollars using a rate of R$2.2025 per U.S.$1.00, based on the U.S. dollar commercial selling rate as of June
30, 2014, published by the Central Bank. See "Exchange Rates."
The U.S. dollar equivalent information presented in this offering memorandum is provided solely for your
convenience and should not be construed as implying that the amounts represent, or could have been or could be
converted into, U.S. dollars at such rates or at any other rate. The real/U.S. dollar exchange rate may fluctuate
widely and the exchange rate described in this paragraph may not be indicative of future exchange rates. See
"Exchange Rates" for information regarding real/U.S. dollar exchange rates.
Rounding
We have made rounding adjustments to reach some of the figures included in this offering memorandum.
Accordingly, numerical figures shown as totals in some tables may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the figures
that preceded them.

SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this offering memorandum. This summary
presents an overview of our business and does not contain all the information you should consider before investing
in the notes. You should read this entire offering memorandum carefully, including the sections "Risk Factors,"
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our audited and
unaudited financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this offering memorandum before investing
in the notes.
Overview
We are a producer and distributor of cement in Brazil, with over 60 years of market experience. We
believe we are the sixth largest cement producer, in terms of volume sold, in the south-east region of Brazil and
among the ten largest in the country, according to SNIC. We offer a variety of types of cement to customers in the
south-east region, the most developed and industrialized region in Brazil. The south-east region, which includes the
states of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, has the highest gross domestic product, or GDP, in the country, and was
responsible for approximately 50% of cement sales in 2013, according to SNIC.
The table below presents certain financial data as of and for the periods indicated.

The consolidated results include a gain of (i) R$27.1 million and R$2.3 million from the sale of two properties by MAPE in December 2012 and (ii) R$38.2
million in 2011 from the sale of a soybean farm by MAPE. For further information see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations--Principal Factors Affecting our Results of Operations--Non-Recurring Events."
(2)
EBITDA means net income (loss) adjusted by financial expenses; financial income; income taxes; and any depreciation, depletion or amortization. This
definition of EBITDA differs from the definition of EBITDA as set out in "Description of Notes--Definitions--EBITDA." EBITDA is not a measure of
financial performance under Brazilian GAAP or IFRS, nor should it be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance, or as
an alternative to operating cash flows, or as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA is not calculated using a standard methodology and may not be comparable to the
definition of EBITDA or similarly titled measures used by other companies. As financial income and expenses, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and
depletion are not considered for the calculation of EBITDA, we believe that our EBITDA provides an indication of our general economic performance, which is
not affected by interest rate fluctuations, changes in income taxes rates, or depreciation, amortization and depletion. As a result, we believe EBITDA is an
important tool to periodically compare our operating performance, and also as a basis for certain administrative decisions.

Through our three facilities, we sold approximately 1.5 million tons of cement in 2012, approximately 1.8
million tons of cement in 2013, and approximately 1.0 million tons of cement in the six months ended June 30,
2014. Currently, our total production capacity amounts to 3.4 million tons of cement per year.
Due to the fact that cement has a low aggregate value and high transportation costs, geographic location
and logistics are an essential part of our business. Our production and distribution facilities are strategically located
close to Brazil's largest consumer markets. Our three major factories are: a fully integrated production plant in
Pedra do Sino in the State of Minas Gerais, a grinding plant in Volta Redonda in the State of Rio de Janeiro, and a
mixing plant in Mogi das Cruzes in the State of São Paulo. We have three distribution centers in the south-east
region, located in Juiz de Fora in the State of Minas Gerais, in the city of Rio de Janeiro in the State of Rio de
Janeiro and in the city of Queimados in the State of Rio de Janeiro, all of which are in or near major cities and
consumer markets. We also distribute our products through our factories, including the Mogi das Cruzes plant
adjacent to the city of São Paulo. In September 2012, we closed our distribution center in Taubaté, in the state of
São Paulo, in order to optimize our distribution network. We have an established logistics network to transport our
products. We own 81 bulk cement railroad cars and rent 91 additional cars to transport both bulk and bagged
cement among our facilities. Additionally, we use numerous trucks to distribute our product directly to customers.
