ITEM 7.01. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE
As previously reported, on December 17, 2003 Solutia Inc. ("Solutia") and its 14 U.S. subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court"). The cases were consolidated for the purpose of joint administration and were assigned case number 03−17949 (PCB). Solutia’s subsidiaries outside the United States were not included in the Chapter 11 filing.
On November 30, 2007 Solutia filed with the Bankruptcy Court as required by the Bankruptcy Code its monthly operating report for the period October 1, 2007 through October 31, 2007. The required Monthly Operating Report is furnished hereunder as Exhibit 99.
Cautionary Statements Regarding Financial and Operating Data
Solutia cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Monthly Operating Reports, as they were not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of any of Solutia or its subsidiaries, or any other affiliate of Solutia. The Monthly Operating Reports were not audited or reviewed by independent accountants, are as prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws, and are subject to future adjustment and reconciliation. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in Solutia’s securities, the Monthly Operating Reports are complete. The Monthly Operating Reports also contain information for periods which are shorter or otherwise different from those required in Solutia’s reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and such information might not be indicative of Solutia’s financial condition or operating results for the period that would be reflected in Solutia’s financial statements or in its reports pursuant to the Exchange Act. Results set forth in the Monthly Operating Reports should not be viewed as indicative of future results.
Limitation on Incorporation by Reference
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8−K, the information in this Form 8−K furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Exchange Act or Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
