LYONDELL CHEMICAL COMPANY
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Lyondell Chemical Company (“LCC”), together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “Lyondell” or “the Company”), is a global manufacturer of chemicals and plastics, a refiner of heavy, high-sulfur crude oil and a significant producer of fuel products. As a result of Lyondell’s purchase of its partner’s 41.25% equity interest in, and Lyondell’s resulting 100% ownership of, Houston Refining LP (“Houston Refining”), the operations of Houston Refining are consolidated prospectively from August 16, 2006. Prior to August 16, 2006, Lyondell accounted for its investment in Houston Refining using the equity method (see Note 4 for additional information).
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared from the books and records of Lyondell in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Lyondell Chemical Company Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to present Lyondell’s inorganic chemicals business operations as discontinued operations and otherwise to conform to current period presentation. Unless otherwise indicated, information presented in the notes to the financial statements relates only to Lyondell’s continuing operations. Information related to Lyondell’s discontinued operations is presented in Note 3.
2. Accounting and Reporting Changes
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which permits election of fair value to measure many financial instruments and certain other items. SFAS No. 159 is effective for Lyondell beginning in 2008. Lyondell is currently evaluating whether it will elect the fair value option for any of its eligible financial instruments and other items.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements. The new standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for its measurement and expands disclosures about such measurements. For Lyondell, the standard will be effective beginning in 2008. Lyondell does not expect the application of SFAS No. 157 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Lyondell adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48,Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN No. 48, Lyondell recognized a $47 million increase in the liability related to uncertain income tax positions, which was accounted for as a $41 million increase in goodwill related to the acquisition of Millennium Chemicals, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries “Millennium”), a $4 million increase in deferred tax assets and a $2 million increase of the January 1, 2007 balance of retained deficit (see Note 13).
On February 23, 2007, Lyondell signed an agreement for a pending sale of Lyondell’s worldwide inorganic chemicals business for cash of $1.05 billion plus the assumption of specified liabilities. The amount will be adjusted based on the values of net working capital, cash and specified indebtedness as of the closing date. Closing is anticipated to occur in the second quarter of 2007.
The operations of the inorganic chemicals business have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income and cash flows and the assets and associated liabilities have been classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets.

4. Equity Interest and Acquisition of Houston Refining LP
On August 16, 2006, Lyondell purchased CITGO Petroleum Corporation’s (“CITGO”) 41.25% ownership interest in Houston Refining. As a result of the acquisition, Houston Refining became a wholly owned, consolidated subsidiary of Lyondell.
Houston Refining owns and operates a full conversion refinery located in Houston, Texas, which has the ability to process approximately 268,000 barrels per day of lower cost, heavy, high sulfur crude oil.

4. Equity Interest and Acquisition of Houston Refining LP—(Continued)
During the three months ended March 31, 2007, Lyondell reimbursed CITGO, as provided for in the transaction agreement, for $94 million of taxes, which Lyondell previously estimated at $97 million, resulting in a $3 million reduction to the purchase price allocated to property, plant and equipment.
Prior to the acquisition, Lyondell held a 58.75% equity-basis investment in Houston Refining and, because the partners jointly controlled certain key management decisions, including approval of the strategic plan, capital expenditures and annual budget, issuance of debt and the appointment of executive management of the partnership, Lyondell accounted for its investment in Houston Refining using the equity method.
Summarized financial information for Houston Refining follows for the relevant period prior to August 16, 2006:

4. Equity Interest and Acquisition of Houston Refining LP – (Continued)
As a partnership, Houston Refining is not subject to federal income taxes. Houston Refining’s selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2006 included an $8 million charge representing reimbursement to Lyondell of legal fees and expenses paid by Lyondell on behalf of Houston Refining in connection with the settlement discussed below.
Lyondell’s income from its investment in Houston Refining prior to August 16, 2006 consisted of Lyondell’s share of Houston Refining’s net income and accretion of Lyondell’s investment in Houston Refining up to its underlying equity in Houston Refining’s net assets.
For the three months ended March 31, 2006, Lyondell’s income included $74 million in “Other income, net” representing the net payments received by Lyondell, including reimbursement of legal fees and expenses from Houston Refining referred to above, in settlement of all disputes among Lyondell, CITGO and Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (“PDVSA”) and their respective affiliates.
5. Charges Related to Toluene Diisocyanate Plant
Lyondell ceased production of toluene diisocyanate (“TDI”) at the Lake Charles, Louisiana TDI plant in the third quarter of 2005.
The following table summarizes estimates of charges that Lyondell expects to incur subsequent to September 30, 2005 related to the Lake Charles TDI facility including actual costs incurred through March 31, 2007.

Facility costs include plant decommissioning and demolition activities; other costs include the costs of terminating contracts.
In addition, there are multiple commercial arrangements associated with the Lake Charles TDI facility for which the costs and timing of resolution are uncertain. Results of operations for the first quarter 2007 reflect a charge of $62 million, before tax, associated with these commercial arrangements. Any additional costs that may be incurred are not expected to be material to Lyondell’s results of operations.

6. Investment in PO Joint Ventures
Lyondell, together with Bayer AG and Bayer Corporation (collectively “Bayer”), share ownership in a U.S. propylene oxide (“PO”) manufacturing joint venture (the “U.S. PO Joint Venture”) and a separate joint venture for certain related PO technology. Bayer’s ownership interest represents ownership of 1.6 billion pounds of annual in-kind PO production of the U.S. PO Joint Venture. Lyondell takes in kind the remaining PO production and all co-product styrene monomer (“SM”) and tertiary butyl alcohol (“TBA”) production from the U.S. PO Joint Venture.
In addition, Lyondell and Bayer each have a 50% interest in a separate manufacturing joint venture (the “European PO Joint Venture”), which includes a world-scale PO/SM plant at Maasvlakte near Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Lyondell and Bayer each are entitled to 50% of the PO and SM production of the European PO Joint Venture.

11. Long-Term Debt – (Continued)
During the three months ended March 31, 2007, LCC obtained an amendment to its senior secured credit facility reducing the then-current interest rate from LIBOR plus 1.75% to LIBOR plus 1.50% and removing the financial ratio maintenance covenants from the term loan. In addition, LCC repaid $4 million principal amount of its term loan due 2013 and Millennium repaid $4 million principal amount of its 7.625% Senior Debentures due 2026.
On May 1, 2007, LCC obtained consents to a proposed amendment of a restrictive provision of the indenture related to its 10.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2013, which required LCC to refinance subordinated debt with new subordinated debt. The amendment permits the refinancing of subordinated debt with senior debt.
On May2, 2007, Lyondell repaid $270 million principal amount of LCC’s 11.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2012 pursuant to a cash tender offer that expires May 15, 2007. In conjunction with the tender offer, on May 1, 2007, Lyondell obtained consents from holders of the 11.125% Senior Secured Notes to effect certain proposed amendments to the indenture governing the 11.125% Senior Secured Notes, including the elimination of substantially all the restrictive covenants, certain events of default and certain other provisions. Lyondell funded the tender offer with cash on hand and borrowings under its revolving credit facility.
As of March 31, 2007, based on a quarterly test related to the price of Lyondell common stock, Millennium’s 4% Convertible Senior Debentures were convertible into Lyondell common stock at a conversion rate of 74.758 Lyondell shares per one thousand dollar principal amount of the Debentures. The principal amount of Debentures that had been converted into shares of Lyondell common stock as of March 31, 2007 was not significant.
Current maturities of long-term debt at March 31, 2007 included $145 million of LCC’s $1,055 million revolving credit facility and $18 million of LCC’s term loan due 2013. At December 31, 2006, current maturities of long-term debt included $18 million of LCC’s term loan due 2013.
Amortization of debt premiums, including adjustments to fair values included in accounting for the acquisition of Millennium, and debt issuance costs resulted in a net credit of $4 million and $6 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, that were included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

12. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits – (Continued)
Net periodic other postretirement benefits, which are provided to U.S. employees, included the following cost components for the three months ended March 31:
Millions of dollars | 2007 | 2006 | ||||||
Service cost | $ | 1 | $ | 1 | ||||
Interest cost | 4 | 3 | ||||||
Amortization | (2 | ) | (1 | ) | ||||
Net periodic benefit cost | $ | 3 | $ | 3 | ||||
13. Uncertain Income Tax Positions
Certain income tax returns of Lyondell and various of its subsidiaries are under examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and various non-U.S. and state tax authorities. In many cases, these audits may result in proposed assessments by the tax authorities. Lyondell believes that its tax positions comply with applicable tax law and intends to defend its positions through appropriate administrative and judicial processes.
Tax benefits totaling $179 million relating to uncertain tax positions taken in prior years are unrecognized as of January 1, 2007 (see Note 2). No event occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 that materially changed the amount of unrecognized benefits.
A substantial portion of these uncertainties relate to passive foreign income for the years 1997 to 2001 and related capital loss benefits that were subsequently recognized. IRS audit examination of the matter has been completed, and it is now in the administrative appeals process. It is reasonably possible that the matter may be settled in 2007 and result in a significant reduction of the amount of unrecognized tax benefits. With the exception of the preceding issue, Lyondell is no longer subject to any significant income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2002.
Lyondell recognizes interest accrued related to uncertain income tax positions in interest expense. Lyondell’s accrued liability for interest as of January 1, 2007 was $86 million. The noncurrent portion of liabilities for uncertain income tax positions and related interest are classified as “Other liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheets.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
Asset Retirement Obligation—Lyondell believes that there are asset retirement obligations associated with some of its facilities, but that the present value of those obligations normally is not material in the context of an indefinite expected life of the facilities. Lyondell continually reviews the optimal future alternatives for its facilities. In many cases, the amount and timing of costs, if any, that may be incurred as a result of such reviews are not known and no decisions have been reached, but if a decision were reached, in accordance with local laws and customs, to retire one or more facilities in the foreseeable future, the asset retirement costs could range from $0 to $30 million, depending upon the scope of the required work and other factors. At March 31, 2007, the balance of the liability that had been recognized for all asset retirement obligations was $12 million. In addition, any decision to retire a facility would result in other costs, including employment related costs.

Environmental Remediation—Lyondell’s accrued liability for future environmental remediation costs at current and former plant sites and other remediation sites totaled $174 million and $176 million as of March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The remediation expenditures are expected to occur over a number of years, and not to be concentrated in any single year. In the opinion of management, there is no material estimable range of reasonably possible loss in excess of the liabilities recorded for environmental remediation. However, it is possible that new information about the sites for which the accrual has been established, new technology or future developments such as involvement in investigations by regulatory agencies, could require Lyondell to reassess its potential exposure related to environmental matters.
The following table summarizes the activity in Lyondell’s accrued environmental liability for the three months ended March 31:
Millions of dollars | 2007 | 2006 | ||||||
Balance at January 1 | $ | 176 | $ | 171 | ||||
Additional provisions | 1 | 4 | ||||||
Amounts paid | (3 | ) | (3 | ) | ||||
Balance at March 31 | $ | 174 | $ | 172 | ||||
The liabilities for individual sites range from less than $1 million to $105 million. The $105 million liability relates to the Kalamazoo River Superfund Site.
A Millennium subsidiary has been identified as a Potential Responsible Party (“PRP”) with respect to the Kalamazoo River Superfund Site. The site involves cleanup of river sediments and floodplain soils contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls, cleanup of former paper mill operations, and cleanup and closure of landfills associated with the former paper mill operations. In 2000, the Kalamazoo River Study Group (the “KRSG”), of which the Millennium subsidiary and other PRPs are members, submitted to the State of Michigan a Draft Remedial Investigation and Draft Feasibility Study, which evaluated a number of remedial options for the river. The estimated costs for these remedial options ranged from $0 to $2.5 billion.
At the end of 2001, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) took lead responsibility for the river portion of the site at the request of the State of Michigan. In 2004, the EPA initiated a confidential process to facilitate discussions among the agency, the Millennium subsidiary, other PRPs, the Michigan Departments of Environmental Quality and Natural Resources, and certain federal natural resource trustees about the need for additional investigation activities and different possible approaches for addressing the contamination in and along the Kalamazoo River. These discussions are continuing.
As of March 31, 2007, the probable future remediation spending associated with the river cannot be determined with certainty. Although the KRSG study identified a broad range of remedial options, not all of those options would represent reasonably possible outcomes. Management does not believe that it can identify a single remedy among those options that would represent the highest-cost reasonably possible outcome. However, in 2004, Lyondell recognized a liability representing Millennium’s interim allocation of 55% of the $73 million total of estimated cost of riverbank stabilization, recommended as the preferred remedy in 2000 by the KRSG study, and of certain other costs. At March 31, 2007, the balance of this liability was $57 million.

In addition, in 2004, Lyondell recognized a liability primarily related to Millennium’s estimated share of remediation costs for two former paper mill sites and associated landfills, which are also part of the Kalamazoo River Superfund Site. At March 31, 2007, the balance of the liability was $48 million. Although no final agreement has been reached as to the ultimate remedy for these locations, Millennium has begun remediation activity related to these sites.
Millennium’s ultimate liability for the Kalamazoo River Superfund Site will depend on many factors that have not yet been determined, including the ultimate remedy selected, the determination of natural resource damages, the number and financial viability of the other PRPs, and the determination of the final allocation among the PRPs.
The balance at March 31, 2007 of Millennium remediation liabilities related to Millennium sites other than the Kalamazoo River Superfund Site was $40 million.
MTBE—The presence of MTBE in some water supplies in certain U.S. states due to gasoline leaking from underground storage tanks and in surface water from recreational water craft led to public concern about the use of MTBE and resulted in U.S. federal and state governmental initiatives to reduce or ban the use of MTBE. Substantially all refiners and blenders have discontinued the use of MTBE in the U.S.
Accordingly, Lyondell is marketing its U.S.-produced MTBE for use outside of the U.S. However, there are higher distribution costs and import duties associated with exporting MTBE outside of the U.S., and the increased supply of MTBE may reduce profitability of MTBE in these export markets. Lyondell’s U.S.-based and European-based MTBE plants generally have the flexibility to produce either MTBE or ethyl tertiary butyl ether (“ETBE”) to accommodate market needs. Lyondell produces and sells ETBE in Europe to address Europe’s growing demand for biofuels. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2006, Lyondell installed equipment at its Channelview, Texas facility to provide Lyondell with the flexibility to produce an alternative gasoline blending component known as iso-octene (also known as “di-isobutylene” or “DIB”) or either MTBE or ETBE at that facility in the future. The facility began producing iso-octene during the fourth quarter of 2006, but experienced equipment limitations that negatively affected operability and reliability. As a result, the facility has returned to MTBE production while the modifications necessary to ensure reliable iso-octene production are defined. Any decision to return to iso-octene production will depend on timing and cost of the required modifications, and product decisions will continue to be influenced by regulatory and market developments. The profit contribution related to iso-octene may be lower than that historically realized on MTBE. In addition, iso-octene is a new product without an established history.
Litigation—On April 12, 2005, BASF Corporation (“BASF”) filed a lawsuit in New Jersey against Lyondell asserting various claims relating to alleged breaches of a PO sales contract and seeking damages in excess of $100 million. A trial date of June 18, 2007 has been set. Management believes that it has valid defenses to all claims and is vigorously defending them. Management does not expect the resolution of the claims to result in any material adverse effect on the financial position, liquidity or results of operations of Lyondell.

Together with alleged past manufacturers of lead-based paint and lead pigments for use in paint, Millennium has been named as a defendant in various legal proceedings alleging personal injury, property damage, and remediation costs allegedly associated with the use of these products. The majority of these legal proceedings assert unspecified monetary damages in excess of the statutory minimum and, in certain cases, equitable relief such as abatement of lead-based paint in buildings. Legal proceedings relating to lead pigment or paint are in various trial stages and post-dismissal settings, some of which are on appeal.
One legal proceeding relating to lead pigment or paint was tried in 2002. On October 29, 2002, the judge in that case declared a mistrial after the jury declared itself deadlocked. The sole issue before the jury was whether lead pigment in paint in and on Rhode Island buildings constituted a “public nuisance.” The re-trial of this case began on November 1, 2005. On February 22, 2006, a jury returned a verdict in favor of the State of Rhode Island finding that the cumulative presence of lead pigments in paints and coatings on buildings in the state constitutes a public nuisance; that a Millennium subsidiary, Millennium Holdings LLC, and other defendants either caused or substantially contributed to the creation of the public nuisance; and that those defendants, including the Millennium subsidiary, should be ordered to abate the public nuisance. On February 28, 2006, the judge held that the state could not proceed with its claim for punitive damages. On February 26, 2007, the court issued its decision denying the post-verdict motions of the defendants, including Millennium, for a mistrial or a new trial. The court concluded that it would enter an order of abatement and appoint a special master to assist the court in determining the scope of the abatement remedy. On March 16, 2007, the court entered a final judgment on the jury’s verdict. On March 20, 2007, Millennium filed its notice of appeal with the Rhode Island Supreme Court.
Millennium’s defense costs to date for lead-based paint and lead pigment litigation largely have been covered by insurance. Millennium has insurance policies that potentially provide approximately $1 billion in indemnity coverage for lead-based paint and lead pigment litigation. Millennium’s ability to collect under the indemnity coverage would depend upon, among other things, the resolution of certain potential coverage defenses that the insurers are likely to assert and the solvency of the various insurance carriers that are part of the coverage block at the time of such a request.
While Lyondell believes that Millennium has valid defenses to all the lead-based paint and lead pigment proceedings and is vigorously defending them, litigation is inherently subject to many uncertainties. Any liability that Millennium may ultimately incur, net of any insurance or other recoveries, cannot be estimated at this time.

Indemnification—Lyondell and its joint ventures are parties to various indemnification arrangements, including arrangements entered into in connection with acquisitions, divestitures and the formation of joint ventures. For example, Lyondell entered into indemnification arrangements in connection with the transfer of assets and liabilities from Atlantic Richfield Company to Lyondell prior to Lyondell’s initial public offering and in connection with Lyondell’s acquisition of the outstanding shares of ARCO Chemical Company; Equistar and its owner companies (including Lyondell and Millennium) entered into indemnification arrangements in connection with the formation of Equistar; and Millennium entered into indemnification arrangements in connection with its demerger from Hanson plc. Pursuant to these arrangements, Lyondell and its joint ventures provide indemnification to and/or receive indemnification from other parties in connection with liabilities that may arise in connection with the transactions and in connection with activities prior to completion of the transactions. These indemnification arrangements typically include provisions pertaining to third party claims relating to environmental and tax matters and various types of litigation. As of March 31, 2007, Lyondell has not accrued any significant amounts for such indemnification obligations, and is not aware of other circumstances that would be likely to lead to significant future indemnification claims against Lyondell. Lyondell cannot determine with certainty the potential amount of future payments under the indemnification arrangements until events arise that would trigger a liability under the arrangements.
Other—Lyondell and its joint ventures are, from time to time, defendants in lawsuits and other commercial disputes, some of which are not covered by insurance. Many of these suits make no specific claim for relief. Although final determination of any liability and resulting financial impact with respect to any such matters cannot be ascertained with any degree of certainty, management does not believe that any ultimate uninsured liability resulting from these matters in which it, its subsidiaries or its joint ventures currently are involved will, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the financial position, liquidity or results of operations of Lyondell.
General—In the opinion of management, the matters discussed in this note are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or liquidity of Lyondell. However, the adverse resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a material impact on Lyondell’s results of operations for that period, which may be mitigated by contribution or indemnification obligations of others, or by any insurance coverage that may be available.
In January 2007, Occidental Chemical Holding Corporation, a subsidiary of Occidental (“OCHC”), notified Lyondell that it was exercising the warrant held by OCHC for the purchase of 5 million shares of Lyondell common stock for $25 per share. The terms of the warrant provided that Lyondell could elect to net settle the exercise by delivering that number of shares of Lyondell common stock having a market value equal to the difference between the exercise price and the market price. In February 2007, pursuant to the terms of the warrant, OCHC received a net payment of 682,210 shares of Lyondell common stock, having a value of $20 million. OCHC owns an 8.5% equity interest in Lyondell.
The tax benefits of stock options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 were $15 million and less than $1 million, respectively.
