2 History The CR Almeida Group, founded in 1958, has a net worth estimated at US$ 9.4 billion with 30 companies operating in the heavy constructions, intermodal logistics assets, highway concessions, explosives, chemical products and defence systems. The defence branch started, in 1961, with the acquisition of the explosives factory, Britanite, followed by the incorporation of the Brazilian plants of North American DuPont (1986) and IRECO Inc. (1993), the largest explosive manufacturer at that time. Within the following years, Britanite relocated and enlarged its facilities, holding, within a plot of 2,200,000 m2, in Quatro Barras, near Curitiba, capital of Parana State, its administration and the departments of engineering, development, manufacturing, explosive storage and loading. The Company holds a portfolio of recognised trusted brands and is the leading supplier of explosives, detonation accessories and solutions for rock blasting, in South America. In 2008, Britanite entered the production of ammonium, sodium and potassium perchlorates. Today, the defence branch of CR Almeida Group, named AEQ Aerospace, Chemical & Defence, develops state-of-the-art defence systems, to the Land, Navy and Air Forces of the Brazilian and friendly nations, and is the supplier of explosive weapons and MIL standard propellants to the Aerospace and Defence Industries in Latin and North America, Asia, Africa and Europe. 03

5 Quality Respect towards the environment and the care with the safety of all its employees, clients and the community is priority for IBQ. Quality excellence of IBQ products and services is also assured by its strict Quality Management System, based on the requirements of the ISO 9001 standard and RBQA IBQ s Quality Control is present since the analysis of the raw materials used during manufacturing. By relying on modern laboratories, the production undergoes tests, inspections and tests that assure the client the high technical level of everything that is supplied. 06

6 SMKB-82 - Guided Smart Bomb Wireless System Recent conflicts highlight a significant concern about the efficiency of accurate bombing combined with extended launching ranges. In response to this demand, AEQ offers the SMKB Smart Guided Weapon System, for air-to-ground warfare, operating under encrypted wireless data transfer, all-weather conditions and accurate guidance, at a range of up to 24 km, for lower exposure to enemy fire. The SMKB weapon employs inertial guidance system (INS) aided by Global Positioning System (GPS) and interoperating with the Galileo and GLONASS global navigation systems guiding modular bombs, as the 500 pounds MK-82 and 1,000 pounds MK-83, also produced by AEQ. Its guidance system does not suffer the interference of dust, sandstorm, dirt, smoke, fog, rain, snow or cloud, making it ideal for a variety of environments and applications, including: close air support, interdiction, offensive counter air, suppression of enemy air defence, naval anti-surface warfare and mobile or fixed targets. Wireless Communication The SMKB weapon receives its mission data and can change its operating modes, download and upload its firmware and execute built-in tests, via wireless communication. Advantages of the SMKB system: No electrical connection, subsequently easier operation in any airplane; Significant reduction in integration costs; GPS position and impact angle programmed on ground or during the captive flight. BIT and in range information available during the captive flight; Wide range of launching points. Weapon developed for worldwide aircrafts, including non-modernized ones and without loss of aircraft performance; Real time envelope calculation sending to pilot; High performance thermal batteries for the power supply. 07
