Material Fact
 
Cosan Limited (NYSE: CZZ; Bovespa: CZLT11) together with Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio (Bovespa: CSAN3), pursuant to CVM Instruction 358 of January 3, 2002, today announced that their indirect subsidiary CCL Finance Limited has priced a US$ 350 million bond offering pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The senior notes, bearing interest of 9.50% per annum, are guaranteed by Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A. ("CCL") and will mature on August 2014.

Cosan group will use the net proceeds from the offering to repay existing short-term indebtedness contracted by Cosan S.A. to the acquisition of CLL. This transaction significantly extends the maturity profile of the group's indebtedness.

The senior notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Since the senior notes will not be offered or sold in Brazil, they will not be registered with the Brazilian securities commission (CVM). This Material Fact does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any security.
