1. GENERAL (Continued)
COMPANY
Our Company, a Delaware corporation, was formed in 2004 to hold the Huntsman businesses. Jon M. Huntsman founded the predecessor to our Company in 1970 as a small packaging company. Since then, we have grown through a series of acquisitions and now own a global portfolio of businesses.
We operate all of our businesses through Huntsman International, our 100% owned subsidiary. Huntsman International is a Delaware limited liability company.
HUNTSMAN CORPORATION AND HUNTSMAN INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Except where otherwise indicated, these notes relate to the condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) for both our Company and Huntsman International. The differences between our financial statements and Huntsman International's financial statements relate primarily to the following:
- •
- purchase accounting recorded at our Company for the 2003 step-acquisition of Huntsman International Holdings LLC, the former parent company of Huntsman International that was merged into Huntsman International in 2005;
- •
- the different capital structures; and
- •
- a note payable from Huntsman International to us (the "Intercompany Note").
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
Our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) include the accounts of our wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and any variable interest entities for which we are the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated, except for intercompany sales between continuing and discontinued operations.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS ADOPTED DURING 2012
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2011-04,Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs, providing a consistent definition of fair value between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") as well as developing common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information

about fair value measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The amendments in this ASU were effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted the amendments of this ASU effective January 1, 2012, and the initial adoption of the amendments in this ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05,Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, requiring entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. The option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity is eliminated. The amendments do not change the option to present components of other comprehensive income either net of related tax effects or before related tax effects, with one amount shown for the aggregate income tax expense or benefit related to the total of other comprehensive income components. The amendments in this ASU were effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2012 and have presented our consolidated net income and consolidated comprehensive income in two separate, but consecutive, statements.
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08,Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. The guidance in this ASU is intended to reduce complexity and costs of the annual goodwill impairment test by providing entities with the option of performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. The amendments in this ASU include examples of events and circumstances that might indicate that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value. The amendments in this ASU were effective prospectively for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted the amendments in this ASU effective January 1, 2012, and the initial adoption of the amendments in this ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS PENDING ADOPTION IN FUTURE PERIODS
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02,Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The guidance in this ASU is intended to reduce complexity and costs of the annual impairment tests for indefinite-lived intangible assets by providing entities with the option of performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. The amendments in this ASU include examples of events and circumstances that might indicate that an asset's fair value is less than its carrying value. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of the amendments in this ASU to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).

3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
RUSSIAN MDI, COATINGS AND SYSTEMS ACQUISITION
On July 3, 2012, we completed our acquisition of the remaining 55% ownership interest in International Polyurethane Investment B.V. (the "Russian Systems House Acquisition"). This company's wholly owned subsidiary, Huntsman NMG Zao, is a leading supplier of polyurethane systems to the adhesives, coatings and footwear markets in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus and is headquartered in Obninsk, Russia. The acquisition cost was approximately €13 million (approximately $16 million). The acquired business was integrated into our Polyurethanes segment. Transaction costs charged to expense related to this acquisition were not significant. The fair value of our existing 45% ownership interest immediately prior to the acquisition was $13 million, valued by applying the income approach. Key assumptions include a discount rate of 17% and a terminal growth rate of 4%. In connection with this transaction, we recorded a noncash pretax loss of approximately $4 million in other operating (income) expense on the consolidation of this investment. The long-term debt of approximately $7 million that was assumed as part of this transaction was repaid shortly after the acquisition date.
We have accounted for the Russian Systems House Acquisition using the acquisition method. As such, we analyzed the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The preliminary allocation of acquisition cost to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is summarized as follows (dollars in millions):
Fair value of original 45% ownership interest acquired in 2007 | $ | 13 | ||
Acquisition cost of 55% ownership interest acquired in 2012 | 16 | |||
Total fair value of net assets acquired | $ | 29 | ||
Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed: | ||||
Accounts receivable | $ | 2 | ||
Inventories | 9 | |||
Other current assets | 1 | |||
Property, plant and equipment | 31 | |||
Accounts payable | (4 | ) | ||
Accrued liabilities | (1 | ) | ||
Deferred income taxes | (2 | ) | ||
Long-term debt | (7 | ) | ||
Total fair value of net assets acquired | $ | 29 | ||
The acquisition cost allocation is preliminary pending final determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including final valuation of working capital, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and the determination of related deferred taxes. For purposes of this preliminary allocation of fair value, we have assigned any excess of the acquisition cost over historical carrying values to property, plant and equipment and no amounts have been allocated to goodwill. It is possible that changes to this preliminary allocation could occur.
International Polyurethane Investment B.V. had revenues and earnings of $16 million and $3 million, respectively, for the period from the date of acquisition to September 30, 2012. If this

acquisition were to have occurred on January 1, 2011, there would have been no significant impact to the combined earnings attributable to our Company or Huntsman International and the following estimated pro forma revenues attributable to our Company and Huntsman International would have been reported (dollars in millions):

EMA ACQUISITION
On December 30, 2011, we completed the acquisition of EMA Kimya Sistemleri Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. (the "EMA Acquisition"), an MDI-based polyurethanes systems house in Istanbul, Turkey for approximately $11 million, net of cash acquired and including the repayment of assumed debt. The acquired business was integrated into our Polyurethanes segment. We have accounted for the EMA Acquisition using the acquisition method and transaction costs charged to expense associated with this acquisition were not significant. For purposes of a preliminary allocation of the acquisition cost to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we have assigned the excess of the acquisition cost over historical carrying values of $7 million to property, plant and equipment. At December 31, 2011, the excess of the acquisition cost over historical carrying values had been assigned as goodwill. This preliminary purchase price allocation is likely to change once we complete the analysis of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed during the fourth quarter of 2012. Net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 related to the business acquired were approximately $7 million and $19 million, respectively. Net losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 related to the business acquired were approximately $(1) million and $(3) million, respectively.
LAFFANS ACQUISITION
On April 2, 2011, we completed the acquisition of the chemical business of Laffans Petrochemicals Limited, an amines and surfactants manufacturer located in Ankleshwar, India (the "Laffans Acquisition") at a cost of approximately $23 million. The acquired business has been integrated into our Performance Products segment. Transaction costs charged to expense related to this acquisition were not significant.
We have accounted for the Laffans Acquisition using the acquisition method. As such, we analyzed the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using last-in first-out ("LIFO"), first-in first-out, and average costs methods for different components of inventory. Inventories consisted of the following (dollars in millions):
| September 30, 2012 | December 31, 2011 | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Raw materials and supplies | $ | 471 | $ | 374 | |||
Work in progress | 96 | 92 | |||||
Finished goods | 1,314 | 1,162 | |||||
Total | 1,881 | 1,628 | |||||
LIFO reserves | (74 | ) | (89 | ) | |||
Net | $ | 1,807 | $ | 1,539 | |||
For September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, approximately 10% and 12%, respectively, of inventories were recorded using the LIFO cost method.
In the normal course of operations we, at times, exchange raw materials and finished goods with other companies for the purpose of reducing transportation costs. The net nonmonetary open exchange positions are valued at cost. The amounts included in inventory under nonmonetary open exchange agreements receivable by us as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $12 million and $3 million, respectively. Other open exchanges are settled in cash and result in a net deferred profit margin. The amount payable under these open exchange agreements as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $2 million and nil, respectively.
5. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
We evaluate our investments and transactions to identify variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which we are the primary beneficiary. We hold a variable interest in the following four joint ventures for which we are the primary beneficiary:
- •
- Rubicon LLC manufactures products for our Polyurethanes and Performance Products segments. The joint venture is structured such that the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit it to finance its activities without additional financial support. Under the Rubicon LLC operating agreement, we are entitled to a majority of the output, absorb a majority of the operating costs and provide a majority of the additional funding.
- •
- Pacific Iron Products Sdn Bhd manufactures products for our Pigments segment. In this joint venture, we supply all the raw materials through a fixed cost supply agreement, operate the manufacturing facility and market the products. Under the fixed cost supply agreement, we are exposed to the risks related to the fluctuation of raw material prices.
- •
- Arabian Amines Company manufactures ethyleneamines products for our Performance Products segment. Prior to July 1, 2010, this joint venture was accounted for under the equity method. In July 2010, Arabian Amines Company exited the development stage, which triggered its reconsideration as a VIE. As required in the Arabian Amines Company operating agreement,

- Sasol-Huntsman is our joint venture with Sasol that owns and operates a maleic anhydride facility in Moers, Germany. This joint venture manufactures products for our Performance Products segment. Prior to April 1, 2011, we accounted for Sasol-Huntsman using the equity method. In April 2011, an expansion at this facility began production, which triggered the reconsideration of this joint venture as a VIE. The joint venture uses our technology and expertise, and we bear a disproportionate amount of risk of loss due to a related-party loan to Sasol-Huntsman for which we bear the default risk. As a result, we concluded that we were the primary beneficiary and began consolidating Sasol-Huntsman beginning April 1, 2011.
we purchase all of its production and sell it to our customers. Substantially all of the joint venture's activities are conducted on our behalf.
Creditors of these VIEs have no recourse to our general credit, except in the event that we offer guarantees of specified indebtedness. As the primary beneficiary, the joint ventures' assets, liabilities and results of operations are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
The following table summarizes the carrying amount of our variable interest entities' assets and liabilities included in our condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited), before intercompany eliminations (dollars in millions):

Goodwill of $17 million was recognized upon consolidation of Sasol-Huntsman, of which approximately $12 million is deductible for income tax purposes. The total amount recorded as goodwill decreased by approximately $2 million from the date of consolidation to December 31, 2011 due to a change in the foreign currency exchange rate. The net change to goodwill in response to changes in the foreign currency exchange rates from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 was nil. All intangible assets other than goodwill are being amortized over an average useful life of 18 years.
If consolidation of Sasol-Huntsman had occurred on January 1, 2011, the approximate pro forma revenues attributable to both our Company and Huntsman International would have been $8,618 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. There would have been no impact to the combined earnings attributable to us or Huntsman International, excluding a one-time noncash gain of approximately $12 million recognized upon consolidation included in other operating expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations (unaudited). Upon consolidation, we also recognized a one-time noncash income tax expense of approximately $2 million. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest was estimated to be $61 million at April 1, 2011. The noncontrolling interest was valued at 50% of the fair value of the net assets as of April 1, 2011, as dictated by the ownership interest percentages, adjusted for certain tax consequences only applicable to one parent.

As of September 30, 2012, under the terms of the Intercompany Note, Huntsman International promises to pay us interest on the unpaid principal amount at a rate per annum based on the previous monthly average borrowing rate obtained under our U.S. accounts receivable securitization program ("U.S. A/R Program"), less ten basis points (provided that the rate shall not exceed an amount that is 25 basis points less than the monthly average borrowing rate obtained for the U.S. LIBOR-based borrowings under our Revolving Facility).
COMPLIANCE WITH COVENANTS
We believe that we are in compliance with the covenants contained in the agreements governing our material debt instruments, including our Senior Credit Facilities, our U.S. A/R Program and our European accounts receivable securitization program (the "EU A/R Program" and collectively with the U.S. A/R Program the "A/R Programs") and our notes.
Our material financing arrangements contain certain covenants with which we must comply. A failure to comply with a covenant could result in a default under a financing arrangement unless we obtained an appropriate waiver or forbearance (as to which we can provide no assurance). A default under these material financing arrangements generally allows debt holders the option to declare the underlying debt obligations immediately due and payable. Furthermore, certain of our material financing arrangements contain cross default and cross acceleration provisions under which a failure to comply with the covenants in one financing arrangement may result in an event of default under another financing arrangement.
Our Senior Credit Facilities are subject to a single financial covenant (the "Leverage Covenant") which applies only to the Revolving Facility and is tested at the Huntsman International level. The Leverage Covenant is applicable only if borrowings, letters of credit or guarantees are outstanding under the Revolving Facility (cash collateralized letters of credit or guarantees are not deemed outstanding). The Leverage Covenant is a net senior secured leverage ratio covenant which requires that Huntsman International's ratio of senior secured debt to EBITDA (as defined in the applicable agreement) is not more than 3.75 to 1.
If in the future Huntsman International fails to comply with the Leverage Covenant, then we may not have access to liquidity under our Revolving Facility. If Huntsman International failed to comply with the Leverage Covenant at a time when we had uncollateralized loans or letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Facility, Huntsman International would be in default under the Senior Credit Facilities, and, unless Huntsman International obtained a waiver or forbearance with respect to such default (as to which we can provide no assurance), Huntsman International could be required to

pay off the balance of the Senior Credit Facilities in full, and we may not have further access to such facilities.
The agreements governing our A/R Programs also contain certain receivable performance metrics. Any material failure to meet the applicable A/R Programs' metrics in the future could lead to an early termination event under the A/R Programs, which could require us to cease our use of such facilities, prohibiting us from additional borrowings against our receivables or, at the discretion of the lenders, requiring that we repay the A/R Programs in full. An early termination event under the A/R Programs would also constitute an event of default under our Senior Credit Facilities, which could require us to pay off the balance of the Senior Credit Facilities in full and could result in the loss of our Senior Credit Facilities.
8. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
We are exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity pricing risks. From time to time, we enter into transactions, including transactions involving derivative instruments, to manage certain of these exposures.
All derivatives, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, are recorded on our balance sheet at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged items are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, to the extent effective, and will be recognized in the income statement when the hedged item affects earnings. To the extent applicable, we perform effectiveness assessments in order to use hedge accounting at each reporting period. For a derivative that does not qualify as a hedge, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.
We also hedge our net investment in certain European operations. Changes in the fair value of the hedge in the net investment of certain European operations are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Our cash flows and earnings are subject to fluctuations due to exchange rate variation. Our revenues and expenses are denominated in various foreign currencies. From time to time, we may enter into foreign currency derivative instruments to minimize the short-term impact of movements in foreign currency rates. Where practicable, we generally net multi-currency cash balances among our subsidiaries to help reduce exposure to foreign currency exchange rates. Certain other exposures may be managed from time to time through financial market transactions, principally through the purchase of spot or forward foreign exchange contracts (generally with maturities of one year or less). We do not hedge our foreign currency exposures in a manner that would eliminate the effect of changes in exchange rates on our cash flows and earnings. As of September 30, 2012, we had approximately $199 million in notional amount (in U.S. dollar equivalents) outstanding in forward foreign currency contracts.
On December 9, 2009, we entered into a five-year interest rate contract to hedge the variability caused by monthly changes in cash flow due to associated changes in LIBOR under our Senior Credit Facilities. The notional value of the contract is $50 million, and it has been designated as a cash flow hedge. The effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the swap was recorded in other

comprehensive income (loss). We will pay a fixed 2.6% on the hedge and receive the one-month LIBOR rate. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of the hedge was $3 million and was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited).
On January 19, 2010, we entered into an additional five-year interest rate contract to hedge the variability caused by monthly changes in cash flow due to associated changes in LIBOR under our Senior Credit Facilities. The notional value of the contract is $50 million, and it has been designated as a cash flow hedge. The effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the swap was recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). We will pay a fixed 2.8% on the hedge and receive the one-month LIBOR rate. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of the hedge was $3 million and was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited).
On September 1, 2011, we entered into a $50 million forward interest rate contract that will begin in December 2014 with maturity in April 2017 and a $50 million forward interest rate contract that will begin in January 2015 with maturity in April 2017. These two forward contracts are to hedge the variability caused by monthly changes in cash flow due to associated changes in LIBOR under our Senior Credit Facilities once our existing interest rate hedges mature. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and the effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the swaps were recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). Both interest rate contracts will pay a fixed 2.5% on the hedge and receive the one-month LIBOR rate once the contracts begin in 2014 and 2015, respectively. As of September 30, 2012, the combined fair value of these two hedges was $4 million and was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited).
In 2009, Sasol-Huntsman entered into derivative transactions to hedge the variable interest rate associated with its local credit facility. These hedges include a floating to fixed interest rate contract providing Sasol-Huntsman with EURIBOR interest payments for a fixed payment of 3.62% and a cap for future periods with a strike price of 3.62%. In connection with the consolidation of Sasol-Huntsman as of April 1, 2011, the interest rate contract is now included in our consolidated results. See "Note 5. Variable Interest Entities." The notional amount of the hedge as of September 30, 2012 was €47 million (approximately $61 million) and the derivative transactions do not qualify for hedge accounting. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of this hedge was €2 million (approximately $3 million) and the hedge was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited). For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded interest expense of less than €1 million (less than $1 million) due to changes in the fair value of the swap.
Beginning in 2009, Arabian Amines Company entered into a 12-year floating to fixed interest rate contract providing for a receipt of LIBOR interest payments for a fixed payment of 5.02%. In connection with the consolidation of Arabian Amines Company as of July 1, 2010, the interest rate contract is now included in our consolidated results. See "Note 5. Variable Interest Entities." The notional amount of the swap as of September 30, 2012 was $36 million, and the interest rate contract is not designated as a cash flow hedge. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of the swap was $6 million and was recorded as other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited). For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded interest expense of less than $1 million due to changes in the fair value of the swap.

In conjunction with the issuance of the 8.625% senior subordinated notes due 2020, we entered into cross-currency interest rate contracts with three counterparties. On March 17, 2010, we paid $350 million to these counterparties and received €255 million from these counterparties and at maturity on March 15, 2015 we are required to pay €255 million and will receive $350 million. On March 15 and September 15 of each year, we will receive U.S. dollar interest payments of approximately $15 million (equivalent to an annual rate of 8.625%) and make interest payments of approximately €11 million (equivalent to an annual rate of approximately 8.41%). These swaps are designated as a hedge of net investment for financial reporting purposes. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of these swaps was $29 million and was recorded in noncurrent assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited).
As of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the changes in fair value of the realized gains (losses) recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations (unaudited) of our other outstanding foreign currency rate hedging contracts and derivatives were not considered significant.
A significant portion of our intercompany debt is denominated in euros. We also finance certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries with intercompany loans that are, in many cases, denominated in currencies other than the entities' functional currency. We manage the net foreign currency exposure created by this debt through various means, including cross-currency swaps, the designation of certain intercompany loans as permanent loans because they are not expected to be repaid in the foreseeable future ("permanent loans") and the designation of certain debt and swaps as net investment hedges.
Foreign currency transaction gains and losses on intercompany loans that are not designated as permanent loans are recorded in earnings. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses on intercompany loans that are designated as permanent loans are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). From time to time, we review such designation of intercompany loans.
From time to time, we review our non-U.S. dollar denominated debt and swaps to determine the appropriate amounts designated as hedges. As of September 30, 2012, we have designated €255 million (approximately $327 million) of euro-denominated debt and cross-currency interest rate swaps as a hedge of our net investments. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the amount of loss recognized on the hedge of our net investments was $6 million and approximately $1 million, respectively, and was recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). As of September 30, 2012, we had €1,211 million (approximately $1,558 million) in net euro assets.

The carrying amounts reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited) of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of non-qualified employee benefit plan investments is obtained through market observable pricing using prevailing market prices. The estimated fair values of our long-term debt are based on quoted market prices for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market (Level 1).
The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements (unaudited) since September 30, 2012, and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

- We are party to cross-currency interest rate contracts that are measured at fair value in our financial statements (unaudited). These instruments have historically been categorized by us as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to an unobservable input associated with the credit valuation adjustment, which we deemed to be a significant input to the overall measurement of fair value at inception. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, this credit valuation adjustment has ceased to be a significant input to the entire fair value measurement of these instruments. The remaining inputs which are significant to the fair value measurement of these instruments represent observable market inputs that are inputs other than quoted prices (Level 2 inputs).
Our policy is to recognize transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy as of the beginning of the reporting period. Due to the change in significance of the credit valuation adjustment to the entire fair value measurement of these instruments, effective January 1, 2012, we have categorized our cross-currency interest rate contracts as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Gains and losses (realized and unrealized) included in earnings for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) are reported in interest expense and other comprehensive income (loss) as follows (dollars in millions):

During the first quarter of 2012, certain U.K. pension plans were closed to new entrants. For existing participants, benefits will only grow as a result of increases in pay. Defined contribution plans were established to replace these pension plans for future benefit accruals. This change did not have a significant impact on our pension liability.
During 2012, the pension plan formula one of our U.S. subsidiaries was converted from an average pay design to a cash balance plan design. The existing defined contribution plan match was enhanced to offset this reduction in benefits. In connection with this plan change, we reduced our pension liability by approximately $23 million with a corresponding offset to other comprehensive income (loss) during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we made contributions to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans of $124 million and $132 million, respectively. During the remainder of 2012, we expect to contribute an additional amount of $31 million to these plans.
In connection with employee terminations in Switzerland related to restructuring programs, we recorded a noncash pension settlement loss of $8 million in the third quarter of 2012.
11. HUNTSMAN CORPORATION STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM
Effective August 5, 2011, our Board of Directors authorized our Company to repurchase up to $100 million in shares of our common stock. Repurchases under this program may be made through the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, and repurchases may be commenced or suspended from time to time without prior notice. Shares of common stock acquired through the repurchase program are held in treasury at cost. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we did not repurchase any shares of our outstanding common stock under the repurchase program. As of September 30, 2012, there remained approximately $50 million of the amount authorized under the program that could be used for stock repurchases.

LEGAL MATTERS
Asbestos Litigation
We have been named as a premises defendant in a number of asbestos exposure cases, typically claims by nonemployees of exposure to asbestos while at a facility. In the past, these cases typically involved multiple plaintiffs bringing actions against multiple defendants, and the complaints have not indicated which plaintiffs were making claims against which defendants, where or how the alleged injuries occurred or what injuries each plaintiff claimed. Rarely do the complaints in these cases state the amount of damages being sought. These facts, which would be central to any estimate of probable loss, generally have been learned only through discovery.
Where a claimant's alleged exposure occurred prior to our ownership of the relevant premises, the prior owners generally have contractually agreed to retain liability for, and to indemnify us against, asbestos exposure claims. This indemnification is not subject to any time or dollar amount limitations. Upon service of a complaint in one of these cases, we tender it to the prior owner. The prior owner accepts responsibility for the conduct of the defense of the cases and payment of any amounts due to the claimants. In our eighteen-year experience with tendering these cases, we have not made any payment with respect to any tendered asbestos cases. We believe that the prior owners have the intention and ability to continue to honor their indemnity obligations, although we cannot assure you that they will continue to do so or that we will not be liable for these cases if they do not.
The following table presents for the periods indicated certain information about cases for which service has been received that we have tendered to the prior owner, all of which have been accepted.

We have never made any payments with respect to these cases. As of September 30, 2012, we had an accrued liability of $10 million relating to these cases and a corresponding receivable of $10 million relating to our indemnity protection with respect to these cases. We cannot assure you that our liability will not exceed our accruals or that our liability associated with these cases would not be material to our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity; accordingly, we are not able to estimate the amount or range of loss in excess of our accruals. Additional asbestos exposure claims may be made against us in the future, and such claims could be material. However, because we are not able to estimate the amount or range of losses associated with such claims, we have made no accruals with respect to unasserted asbestos exposure claims as of September 30, 2012.
Certain cases in which we are a premises defendant are not subject to indemnification by prior owners or operators. However, we may be entitled to insurance or other recovery in some of these cases. The following table presents for the periods indicated certain information about these cases. Cases include all cases for which service has been received by us. Certain prior cases that were filed in error against us have been dismissed.

We paid gross settlement costs for asbestos exposure cases that are not subject to indemnification of $82,000 and $442,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As of September 30, 2012, we had an accrual of $225,000 relating to these cases and we expect insurance proceeds to offset this cost. We cannot assure you that our liability will not exceed our accruals or that our liability associated with these cases would not be material to our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity; accordingly, we are not able to estimate the amount or range of loss in excess of our accruals. Additional asbestos exposure claims may be made against us in the future, and such claims could be material. However, because we are not able to estimate the amount or range of losses associated with such claims, we have made no accruals with respect to unasserted asbestos exposure claims as of September 30, 2012.
Antitrust Matters
We were named as a defendant in civil class action antitrust suits alleging that between 1999 and 2004 we conspired with Bayer, BASF, Dow and Lyondell to fix the prices of MDI, TDI, polyether polyols, and related systems ("polyether polyol products") sold in the U.S. in violation of the federal

Sherman Act. These cases are consolidated as the "Polyether Polyols" cases in multidistrict litigation pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas.
In addition, we and the other Polyether Polyols defendants were named as defendants in three civil antitrust suits brought by certain direct purchasers of polyether polyol products that opted out of the class certified in the Kansas multidistrict litigation. The relevant time frame for these cases is 1994 to 2004 and they are referred to as the "direct action cases." The class action and the direct action cases were consolidated in the Kansas court for the purposes of discovery and other pretrial matters.
In the second quarter of 2011, we settled the class action and were dismissed as a defendant. On December 29, 2011, we entered into a settlement agreement with the direct action plaintiffs for an amount immaterial to our financial statements and were dismissed from those cases on December 30, 2011.
Two similar civil antitrust class action cases were filed May 5 and 17, 2006 in the Superior Court of Justice, Ontario Canada and Superior Court, Province of Quebec, District of Quebec, on behalf of purported classes of Canadian direct and indirect purchasers of MDI, TDI and polyether polyols. On April 11, 2012, we reached agreement to resolve these cases for an amount immaterial to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited). On July 27, 2012, the Canadian courts approved the settlement, and the settlement has since been paid.
A purported class action case filed February 15, 2005 by purchasers in California of products containing rubber and urethane chemicals and pending in Superior Court of California, County of San Francisco is stayed pending resolution of the Kansas multidistrict litigation. The plaintiffs in this matter make similar claims against the defendants as the class plaintiffs in the Kansas multidistrict litigation. While we have previously disclosed this matter because it is related to the Polyether Polyols cases, we do not believe this matter by itself will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
We have been named as a defendant in two purported class action civil antitrust suits alleging that we and our co-defendants and other co-conspirators conspired to fix prices of titanium dioxide sold in the U.S. between at least March 1, 2002 and the present. The cases were filed on February 9 and 12, 2010 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland and a consolidated complaint was filed on April 12, 2010. The other defendants named in this matter are E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Kronos Worldwide Inc., Millennium Inorganic Chemicals, Inc. and the National Titanium Dioxide Company Limited (d/b/a Cristal). The court certified the case as a class action on August 28, 2012 although notice to putative class members has not yet been given while we and our co-defendants pursue an appeal of the class certification before the Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. The trial is set to begin September 9, 2013.
In all of the antitrust litigation currently pending against us, the plaintiffs generally are seeking injunctive relief, treble damages, costs of suit and attorneys fees. We are not aware of any illegal conduct by us or any of our employees. Nevertheless, we have incurred costs relating to these claims and could incur additional costs in amounts material to us. As alleged damages in these cases have not been specified, and because of the overall complexity of these cases, we are unable to reasonably estimate any possible loss or range of loss with respect to these claims.

Product Delivery Claim
We have been notified by a customer of potential claims related to our allegedly delivering a different product from that which it had ordered. Our customer claims that it was unaware that the different product had been delivered until after it had been used to manufacture materials which were subsequently sold. Originally, the customer stated that it had been notified of claims of up to an aggregate of €153 million (approximately $191 million) relating to this matter and believed that we may be responsible for all or a portion of these potential claims. Our customer has since resolved some of these claims and the aggregate amount of the current claims is now approximately €113 million (approximately $145 million). Based on the facts currently available to us, we believe that we are insured for any liability we may ultimately have in excess of $10 million. However, no assurance can be given regarding our ultimate liability or costs to us. We believe the range of possible loss to our Company in this matter to be between €0 and €113 million and have made no accrual with respect to this matter.
Indemnification Matter
On July 3, 2012, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (the "Banks") demanded that we indemnify them for claims brought by certain MatlinPatterson entities that were formerly our shareholders (the "Plaintiffs") in litigation filed June 19, 2012 in the 9th District Court in Montgomery County, Texas. The Banks assert that they are entitled to indemnification pursuant to the Agreement of Compromise and Settlement between the Banks and our Company, dated June 22, 2009, wherein the Banks and our Company settled claims that we brought relating to the failed merger with Hexion Specialty Chemicals, Inc. ("Hexion"). Plaintiffs claim that the Banks knowingly made materially false representations about the nature of the financing for the acquisition of our Company by Hexion and that they suffered substantial losses to their 19 million shares of our common stock as a result of the Banks' misrepresentations. Plaintiffs are asserting statutory fraud, common law fraud and aiding and abetting statutory fraud and are seeking actual damages, exemplary damages, costs and attorney's fees, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. We have denied the Banks' demand and continue to monitor the litigation. At this time, we are unable to estimate the amount or range of possible losses with respect to these claims.
Other Proceedings
We are a party to various other proceedings instituted by private plaintiffs, governmental authorities and others arising under provisions of applicable laws, including various environmental, products liability and other laws. Except as otherwise disclosed in this report, we do not believe that the outcome of any of these matters will have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY MATTERS
General
We are subject to extensive federal, state, local and international laws, regulations, rules and ordinances relating to safety, pollution, protection of the environment, product management and distribution, and the generation, storage, handling, transportation, treatment, disposal and remediation of hazardous substances and waste materials. In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to frequent environmental inspections and monitoring and occasional investigations by governmental enforcement authorities. In addition, our production facilities require operating permits that are subject to renewal, modification and, in certain circumstances, revocation. Actual or alleged violations of safety laws, environmental laws or permit requirements could result in restrictions or prohibitions on plant operations or product distribution, substantial civil or criminal sanctions, as well as, under some environmental laws, the assessment of strict liability and/or joint and several liability. Moreover, changes in environmental regulations could inhibit or interrupt our operations, or require us to modify our facilities or operations. Accordingly, environmental or regulatory matters may cause us to incur significant unanticipated losses, costs or liabilities.
Environmental, Health and Safety Systems
We are committed to achieving and maintaining compliance with all applicable environmental, health and safety ("EHS") legal requirements, and we have developed policies and management systems that are intended to identify the multitude of EHS legal requirements applicable to our operations, enhance compliance with applicable legal requirements, ensure the safety of our employees, contractors, community neighbors and customers and minimize the production and emission of wastes and other pollutants. Although EHS legal requirements are constantly changing and are frequently difficult to comply with, these EHS management systems are designed to assist us in our compliance goals while also fostering efficiency and improvement and reducing overall risk to us.
EHS Capital Expenditures
We may incur future costs for capital improvements and general compliance under EHS laws, including costs to acquire, maintain and repair pollution control equipment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, our capital expenditures for EHS matters totaled $61 million and $55 million, respectively. Because capital expenditures for these matters are subject to evolving regulatory requirements and depend, in part, on the timing, promulgation and enforcement of specific requirements, our capital expenditures for EHS matters have varied significantly from year to year and we cannot provide assurance that our recent expenditures are indicative of future amounts we may spend related to EHS and other applicable laws.
Remediation Liabilities
We have incurred, and we may in the future incur, liability to investigate and clean up waste or contamination at our current or former facilities or facilities operated by third parties at which we may have disposed of waste or other materials. Similarly, we may incur costs for the cleanup of waste that

was disposed of prior to the purchase of our businesses. Under some circumstances, the scope of our liability may extend to damages to natural resources.
Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA") and similar state laws, a current or former owner or operator of real property may be liable for remediation costs regardless of whether the release or disposal of hazardous substances was in compliance with law at the time it occurred, and a current owner or operator may be liable regardless of whether it owned or operated the facility at the time of the release. Outside the U.S., analogous contaminated property laws, such as those in effect in France and Australia, can hold past owners and/or operators liable for remediation at former facilities. Currently, there are approximately 10 former facilities or third party sites in the U.S. for which we have been notified of potential claims against us for cleanup liabilities, including, but not limited to, sites listed under CERCLA. Based on current information and past experiences at other CERCLA sites, we do not expect these third party claims to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
One of these sites, the North Maybe Canyon Mine site, involves a former phosphorous mine near Soda Springs, Idaho, which is believed to have been operated by a predecessor company to us. In 2004, the U.S. Forest Service ("USFS") notified us that we are a CERCLA potentially responsible party ("PRP") for contaminated surface water issues. In February 2010, we and Wells Cargo (another PRP) agreed to conduct a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) of a portion of the site and are currently engaged in that process. At this time, we are unable to reasonably estimate our potential losses in this matter.
In addition, under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") and similar state laws, we may be required to remediate contamination originating from our properties as a condition to our hazardous waste permit. Some of our manufacturing sites have an extended history of industrial chemical manufacturing and use, including on-site waste disposal. We are aware of soil, groundwater or surface contamination from past operations at some of our sites, and we may find contamination at other sites in the future. For example, our Port Neches, Texas, and Geismar, Louisiana, facilities are the subject of ongoing remediation requirements under RCRA authority. Similar laws exist in a number of locations in which we currently operate, or previously operated, manufacturing facilities, such as Australia, India, France, Hungary and Italy.
By letter dated March 7, 2006, our former Base Chemicals and Polymers facility in West Footscray, Australia, was issued a clean-up notice by the Environmental Protection Authority Victoria ("EPA Victoria") due to concerns about soil and groundwater contamination emanating from the site. On August 23, 2010, EPA Victoria revoked the second clean-up notice and issued a revised notice that included a requirement for financial assurance for the remediation. We have reached agreement with the agency that a mortgage on the land will be held by the agency as financial surety during the period covered by the current clean-up notice, which ends on July 30, 2014. As of September 30, 2012, we had an accrued liability of $30 million related to estimated environmental remediation costs at this site. We can provide no assurance that the agency will not seek to institute additional requirements for the site or that additional costs will not be associated with the clean up.

Environmental Reserves
We have accrued liabilities relating to anticipated environmental cleanup obligations, site reclamation and closure costs and known penalties. Liabilities are recorded when potential liabilities are either known or considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. Our liability estimates are calculated using present value techniques as appropriate and are based upon requirements placed upon us by regulators, available facts, existing technology and past experience. The environmental liabilities do not include amounts recorded as asset retirement obligations. We had accrued $35 million and $36 million for environmental liabilities as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Of these amounts, $10 million and $7 million were classified as accrued liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited) as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, and $25 million and $29 million were classified as other noncurrent liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited) as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. In certain cases, our remediation liabilities may be payable over periods of up to 30 years.
REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS
On June 1, 2007, the EU regulatory framework for chemicals called "REACH" took effect, designed to be phased in over 11 years. As a REACH-regulated company that manufactures in or imports more than one metric ton per year of a chemical substance into the European Economic Area, we were required to pre-register with the European Chemicals Agency ("ECHA"), such chemical substances and isolated intermediates to take advantage of the 11 year phase-in period. To meet our compliance obligations, a cross-business REACH team was established, through which we were able to fulfill all required pre-registrations and our first phase registrations by the November 30, 2010 deadline. While we continue our registration efforts to meet the next registration deadline of June 2013, our REACH implementation team is now strategically focused on the authorization phase of the REACH process, directing its efforts to address "Substances of Very High Concern" and evaluating potential business implications. Where warranted, evaluation of substitute chemicals will be an important element of our ongoing manufacturing sustainability efforts. As a chemical manufacturer with global operations, we are also actively monitoring and addressing analogous regulatory regimes being considered or implemented outside of the EU.
Although the total long-term cost for REACH compliance is unknown at this time, we spent approximately $5 million, $9 million and $3 million in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, to meet the initial REACH requirements. We cannot provide assurance that these recent expenditures are indicative of future amounts that we may be required to spend for REACH compliance.
GREENHOUSE GAS REGULATION
Although the existence of binding emissions limitations under international treaties such as the Kyoto Protocol is in doubt after 2012, we expect some or all of our operations to be subject to regulatory requirements to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases ("GHGs"). Even in the absence of a new global agreement to limit GHGs, we may be subject to additional regulation under the European Union Emissions Trading System as well as new national and regional GHG trading programs. For

example, our operations in Australia and selected U.S. states may be subject to future GHG regulations under emissions trading systems in those jurisdictions.
Because the United States has not adopted federal climate change legislation, domestic GHG efforts are likely to be guided by EPA regulations in the near future. While EPA's GHG programs are currently subject to judicial challenge, our domestic operations may become subject to EPA's regulatory requirements when implemented. In particular, expansions of our existing facilities or construction of new facilities may be subject to the Clean Air Act's Prevention of Significant Deterioration Requirements under EPA's GHG "Tailoring Rule." In addition, certain aspects of our operations may be subject to GHG emissions monitoring and reporting requirements. If we are subject to EPA GHG regulations, we may face increased monitoring, reporting, and compliance costs.
We are already managing and reporting GHG emissions, to varying degrees, as required by law for our sites in locations subject to Kyoto Protocol obligations and/or EU emissions trading scheme requirements. Although these sites are subject to existing GHG legislation, few have experienced or anticipate significant cost increases as a result of these programs, although it is possible that GHG emission restrictions may increase over time. Potential consequences of such restrictions include capital requirements to modify assets to meet GHG emission restrictions and/or increases in energy costs above the level of general inflation, as well as direct compliance costs. Currently, however, it is not possible to estimate the likely financial impact of potential future regulation on any of our sites.
Finally, it should be noted that some scientists have concluded that increasing concentrations of GHG in the earth's atmosphere may produce climate changes that have significant physical effects, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, droughts, and floods and other climatic events. If any of those effects were to occur, they could have an adverse effect on our assets and operations.
15. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
Under the Huntsman Corporation Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the "Stock Incentive Plan"), a plan approved by stockholders, we may grant nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, phantom stock, performance awards and other stock-based awards to our employees, directors and consultants and to employees and consultants of our subsidiaries, provided that incentive stock options may be granted solely to employees. The terms of the grants are fixed at the grant date. As of September 30, 2012, we were authorized to grant up to 32.6 million shares under the Stock Incentive Plan. As of September 30, 2012, we had 8 million shares remaining under the Stock Incentive Plan available for grant. Option awards have a maximum contractual term of 10 years and generally must have an exercise price at least equal to the market price of our common stock on the date the option award is granted. Stock-based awards generally vest over a three-year period.

STOCK OPTIONS
The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock through the grant date. The expected term of options granted was estimated based on the contractual term of the instruments and employees' expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of grant. The assumptions noted below represent the weighted average of the assumptions utilized for stock options granted during the periods.

- As of September 30, 2012, a total of 516,338 restricted stock units were vested, of which 72,161 vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. These shares have not been reflected as vested shares in this table because in accordance with the restricted stock unit agreements, shares of common stock are not issued for vested restricted stock units until termination of employment.
As of September 30, 2012, there was $21 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share compensation arrangements granted under the Stock Incentive Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.2 years. The value of share awards that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $21 million and $23 million, respectively.
16. INCOME TAXES
We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting purposes. We evaluate deferred tax assets to determine whether it is more likely than not that they will be realized. Valuation allowances are reviewed on a tax jurisdiction basis to analyze whether there is sufficient positive or negative evidence to support a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax assets for each jurisdiction. These conclusions require significant judgment. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, we consider the cyclicality of businesses and cumulative income or losses during the applicable period. Cumulative losses incurred over the applicable period limits our ability to consider other subjective evidence such as our projections for the future. Changes in expected future income in applicable jurisdictions could affect the realization of deferred tax assets in those jurisdictions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, on a discrete basis, we changed our judgment about certain valuation allowances, primarily related to operations of our Textile Effects segment, resulting in a net $1 million benefit for changes in valuation allowance related to certain net deferred assets in Guatemala, Indonesia, and China. In addition, due to changes in certain intercompany operations, we increased our estimated future taxable income in Luxembourg and released valuation allowances of

$12 million and $8 million on certain net deferred assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded a net increase in unrecognized tax benefits with a corresponding income tax expense of $4 million, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded no net change in unrecognized tax benefits.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we were granted a tax holiday for the period from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2016 with respect to certain income from Pigments products manufactured in Malaysia. We are required to make certain investments in order to enjoy the benefits of the tax holiday and we intend to make these investments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded a discrete benefit of $3 million from de-recognition of a net deferred tax liability that will reverse during the holiday period. The amount of tax benefit to be realized from the tax holiday is directly dependent on the amount of future pre-tax income generated. We expect that the effects of the tax holiday will not be material to our provision for income taxes.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded approximately $12 million of tax benefits on the approximately $50 million of restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs attributable to the significant restructuring of our Polyurethanes and Textile Effects segments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded approximately $2 million of tax benefits on the approximately $160 million of restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs attributable to the significant restructuring of our Textile Effects and Advanced Materials segments. The majority of these 2011 restructuring expenses relate to operations in Switzerland where we have a full valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets.
Huntsman Corporation
Excluding the tax effects resulting from the net valuation allowance changes and restructuring costs, the net unrecognized tax benefit items and the Malaysia tax holiday discussed above, we recorded income tax expense of $210 million and $121 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our tax expense is affected by the mix of income and losses in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, as impacted by the presence of valuation allowances in certain tax jurisdictions.

AUSTRALIAN STYRENICS BUSINESS SHUTDOWN
During the first quarter of 2010, we ceased operation of our former Australian styrenics business. The following results of operations of our former Australian styrenics business have been presented as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations (unaudited) (dollars in millions):

In 2006, product defect actions were filed against our subsidiary, HCCA, in Australian courts relating to the sale and supply of vinyl ester resins that were used in the manufacture of fiberglass swimming pools. HCCA ceased manufacturing these specific resin formulations by 2004 and sold the business that manufactured and sold these resins in 2007.
During the first quarter of 2011, HCCA increased its estimate of probable loss related to these claims and recorded a liability for the full estimated value of the claims and a corresponding receivable relating to our indemnity protection with a net charge to discontinued operations for any potential shortfall in insurance coverage. Following mediation held in August 2011, HCCA and its insurers reached an agreement with two claimants to settle their claims for amounts within our insurance coverage after our self-insured retention was satisfied. Accordingly, during the third quarter of 2011, HCCA reduced its estimate of probable loss proportionately and reversed a portion of the liability related to this matter. The settlements were paid in the fourth quarter of 2011.
18. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic income (loss) per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Huntsman Corporation common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share reflects all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period and is computed by dividing net income available to Huntsman Corporation common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding as dilutive securities.

Additional stock-based awards of 7.9 million and 6.8 million weighted average equivalent shares of stock were outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and additional stock-based awards of 9.3 million and 6.7 million weighted average equivalent shares of stock were outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. However, these stock-based awards were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 periods because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

On October 31, 2012, we prepaid $50 million of our Term Loan B.
On November 2, 2012, Huntsman International announced its intention to issue approximately $300 million of Senior Notes due 2020. We expect to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with existing cash, to redeem a portion of our existing Senior Notes due 2016. In connection with this offering, we expect to record a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $55 million.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
With respect to Huntsman Corporation, certain information set forth in this report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Huntsman International is a limited liability company, and, pursuant to Section 21E(b)(2)(E) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the safe harbor for certain forward-looking statements is inapplicable to it. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenues or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, plans or intentions relating to acquisitions and other information that is not historical information. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as "believes," "expects," "may," "should," "anticipates," or "intends" or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. We may also make additional forward-looking statements from time to time. All such subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, by us or on our behalf, are also expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.
All forward-looking statements, including without limitation management's examination of historical operating trends, are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them, but there can be no assurance that management's expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved. All forward-looking statements apply only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in or contemplated by this report. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of the risks referenced in "Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
OVERVIEW
Business
We are a global manufacturer of differentiated organic chemical products and of inorganic chemical products. Our products comprise a broad range of chemicals and formulations, which we market globally to a diversified group of consumer and industrial customers. Our products are used in a wide range of applications, including those in the adhesives, aerospace, automotive, construction products, personal care and hygiene, durable and non-durable consumer products, electronics, medical, packaging, paints and coatings, power generation, refining, synthetic fiber, textile chemicals and dye industries. We are a leading global producer in many of our key product lines, including MDI, amines, surfactants, maleic anhydride, epoxy-based polymer formulations, textile chemicals, dyes and titanium dioxide. We had revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 of $8,568 million and $8,589 million, respectively.
We operate in five segments: Polyurethanes, Performance Products, Advanced Materials, Textile Effects and Pigments. Our Polyurethanes, Performance Products, Advanced Materials and Textile Effects segments produce differentiated organic chemical products and our Pigments segment produces inorganic chemical products.
OUTLOOK
During the third quarter of 2012, we experienced increased earnings in all segments other than Pigments compared to the prior year. While the factors we describe below are subject to general
70
economic conditions, we expect continued near term earnings pressure on our Pigments segment due to soft demand and higher raw material costs, though we anticipate that earnings improvements across all of our other segments will offset this pressure. Over time, we expect MDI margins in our Polyurethanes segment to improve as utilization rates tighten. We anticipate that the future benefits from our ongoing restructuring and cost cutting efforts will result in a lower cost structure in 2013.
The following summarizes trends and key considerations that could impact future performance of our operating segments:
Polyurethanes:
- •
- Improving MDI demand
- •
- Restructuring benefit
- •
- Near term seasonal decrease in MDI demand and PO/MTBE pricing
- •
- Higher raw material costs
Performance Products:
- •
- U.S. Gulf Coast raw material cost advantage
- •
- Planned periodic maintenance in the first quarter of 2013
- •
- Near term seasonal decrease in demand
Advanced Materials:
- •
- Restructuring benefit
- •
- Weak Chinese wind energy market
- •
- Near term seasonal decrease in demand
Textile Effects:
- •
- Reorganization and restructuring benefit
- •
- Near term seasonal decrease in demand
Pigments:
- •
- Near term contribution margin pressure
- •
- Favorable ore contracts expiring at end of 2012
- •
- Near term weak demand
We expect to spend approximately $425 million to $450 million in 2012 on capital expenditures, largely for growth initiatives and maintenance.
We expect our long-term effective income tax rate to be approximately 30% to 35%.

- Our management uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to assess financial performance. EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is computed by eliminating the following from EBITDA: loss on early extinguishment of debt; loss (gain) on initial consolidation of subsidiaries; certain legal settlements and related expenses; EBITDA from discontinued operations; acquisition expenses; extraordinary gain on the acquisition of a business; gain on disposition of businesses/assets; and restructuring, impairment, plant closing and transition costs.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not necessarily be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. There are material limitations associated with our use of these measures because they do not reflect overall financial performance, including the effects of interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Our management compensates for the limitations of these measures by using them as a supplement to GAAP results.

- Our management also uses adjusted net income to assess financial performance. Adjusted net income is computed by eliminating the after-tax amounts related to the following from net income applicable to Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate: loss on early extinguishment of debt; loss (gain) on initial consolidation of subsidiaries; certain legal settlements and related expenses; discount amortization on settlement financing; loss (income) from discontinued operations; acquisition expenses; gain on disposition of businesses/assets; extraordinary gain on the acquisition of a business; and restructuring, impairment, plant closing and transition costs. The income tax impacts of each aforementioned item was calculated using the statutory rates in the applicable taxing jurisdiction and considering valuation allowances on deferred tax assets in each jurisdiction. Basic adjusted net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share reflects all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period and is computed by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding as dilutive securities.
Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share amounts are presented solely as supplemental information.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared with Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation was $116 million on revenues of $2,741 million, compared with net loss attributable to Huntsman Corporation of $34 million on revenues of $2,976 million for the same period of 2011. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, net income attributable to Huntsman International was $117 million on revenues of $2,741 million, compared with net loss attributable to Huntsman International of $31 million on revenues of $2,976 million for the same period of 2011. The increase of $150 million in net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation and the increase of $148 million in net income attributable to Huntsman International was the result of the following items:
- •
- Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $235 million, or 8%, as compared with the 2011 period. The decrease was due principally to lower average selling prices in our Performance Products, Advanced Materials and Textile Effects segments and lower sales volumes in our Polyurethanes, Performance Products and Pigments segments. See "—Segment Analysis" below.
77
- •
- Our gross profit and the gross profit of Huntsman International for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased by $47 million each, or 10% and 9%, respectively, as compared with the 2011 period. The increase resulted from higher gross margins in our Polyurethanes, Performance Products and Textile Effects segments, offset in part by lower margins in our remaining segments. See "—Segment Analysis" below.
- •
- Our operating expenses and the operating expenses of Huntsman International for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $3 million and $2 million, respectively, or 1% each, as compared with the 2011 period. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to the impact of foreign currency translation in 2012, offset by a $4 million loss recognized in the third quarter 2012 in connection with the Russian Systems House Acquisition and the $4 million gain on the sale of assets at our Grimsby, U.K. plant recognized in the third quarter of 2011.
- •
- Restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased to $47 million from $155 million in the 2011 period. For more information concerning restructuring activities, see "Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
- •
- Our net interest expense and the net interest expense of Huntsman International for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $7 million each, or 11% each, as compared with the 2011 period. The decrease is due to lower average debt balances.
- •
- Our income tax expense and the income tax expense of Huntsman International for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased by $6 million and $7 million, respectively, as compared with the same period in 2011, primarily due to increased pre-tax income. Our tax expense is affected by the mix of income and losses in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, as impacted by valuation allowances in certain tax jurisdictions. For further information concerning taxes, see "Note 16. Income Taxes" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
- •
- Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $1 million compared to income from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $10 million in the 2011 period. The increase in loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, resulted primarily from the reversal of legal accruals in the 2011 period in connection with product defect litigation. For more information, see "Note 17. Discontinued Operations" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).

Polyurethanes
The increase in revenues in our Polyurethanes segment for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 was due to higher average selling prices and improved sales mix partially offset by lower sales volumes and the strength of the U.S. dollar against major European currencies. PO/MTBE average selling prices increased primarily due to favorable market conditions. MDI average selling prices increased in all regions, offset by the strength of the U.S. dollar against major European currencies. PO/MTBE sales volumes decreased, partially offset by an increase in MDI sales volumes primarily as a result of improved demand in the European and Asian regions and in certain markets such as composite wood products and adhesives, coatings and elastomers. The increase in segment EBITDA was primarily due to higher contribution margins and improved sales mix, partially offset by higher restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, our Polyurethanes segment recorded restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs of $32 million and nil, respectively. For more information concerning restructuring activities, see "Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
Performance Products
The decrease in revenues in our Performance Products segment for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 was due to lower average selling prices and lower sales volumes. Average selling prices decreased primarily in response to lower raw material costs and the strength of the U.S. dollar against major international currencies. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to a shift to tolling arrangements. The increase in segment EBITDA was primarily due to higher contribution margins as raw materials costs decreased.
Advanced Materials
The decrease in revenues in our Advanced Materials segment for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 was primarily due to lower average selling prices, partially offset by higher sales volumes. Average selling prices decreased primarily in response to lower raw material costs, competitive market pressure and the strength of the U.S. dollar against major international currencies. Sales volumes increased primarily due to stronger demand in Europe, the Americas and India while sales volumes in the Asia-Pacific region decreased due to lower demand in the wind energy and electrical engineering markets. The increase in segment EBITDA was primarily due to higher sales volumes, lower restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs and lower selling, general and administrative costs as a result of recent restructuring efforts. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, our Advanced Materials segment recorded restructuring,
80
impairment and plant closing costs of $6 million and $24 million, respectively. For more information concerning restructuring activities, see "Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
Textile Effects
The increase in revenues in our Textile Effects segment for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 was primarily due to higher sales volumes, partially offset by lower average selling prices. Sales volumes increased due to increased market share in key markets, notably Asia. Average selling prices decreased primarily due to the strength of the U.S. dollar against major international currencies. The increase in segment EBITDA was primarily due to higher sales volumes, lower restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs and lower manufacturing and selling, general and administrative costs as a result of recent restructuring efforts. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, our Textile Effects segment recorded restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs of $8 million and $128 million, respectively, and expenses for the transition of production from Basel, Switzerland to a tolling facility of $4 million and nil, respectively. For more information concerning restructuring activities, see "Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
Pigments
The decrease in revenues in our Pigments segment for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 was due to lower sales volumes. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to lower global demand. The increase in local currency average selling prices was offset by the strength of the U.S. dollar against major international currencies. The decrease in segment EBITDA was primarily due to lower sales volumes and higher raw material costs.
Corporate and other—Huntsman Corporation
Corporate and other includes unallocated corporate overhead, unallocated foreign exchange gains and losses, LIFO inventory valuation reserve adjustments, loss on early extinguishment of debt, unallocated restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs, nonoperating income and expense, benzene sales and gains and losses on the disposition of corporate assets. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, EBITDA from Corporate and other increased by $12 million to a loss of $40 million from a loss of $52 million for the same period in 2011. The increase in EBITDA from Corporate and other was primarily the result of a $10 million decrease in LIFO inventory valuation expense ($2 million of income in 2012 compared to $8 million of expense in 2011).
Corporate and other—Huntsman International
Corporate and other includes unallocated corporate overhead, unallocated foreign exchange gains and losses, LIFO inventory valuation reserve adjustments, loss on early extinguishment of debt, unallocated restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs, nonoperating income and expense, benzene sales and gains and losses on the disposition of corporate assets.

Discontinued Operations
The operating results of our former polymers, base chemicals and Australian styrenics businesses are classified as discontinued operations, and, accordingly, the revenues of these businesses are
81
excluded from revenues for all periods presented. The EBITDA of these former businesses are included in discontinued operations for all periods presented. The loss from discontinued operations represents the operating results, legal costs, restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs and gain (loss) on disposal with respect to our former businesses. The decrease in loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, resulted primarily from higher legal costs in the 2011 period. See "Note 17. Discontinued Operations" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared with Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation was $403 million on revenues of $8,568 million, compared with net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation of $142 million on revenues of $8,589 million for the same period of 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net income attributable to Huntsman International was $410 million on revenues of $8,568 million, compared with net income attributable to Huntsman International of $149 million on revenues of $8,589 million for the same period of 2011. The increase of $261 million in net income attributable to both Huntsman Corporation and Huntsman International was the result of the following items:
- •
- Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $21 million, or nil, as compared with the 2011 period. The decrease was due principally to lower average selling prices in our Performance Products, Advanced Materials and Textile Effects segments and lower sales volumes in our Performance Products and Pigments segments. See "—Segment Analysis" below.
- •
- Our gross profit and the gross profit of Huntsman International for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased by $163 million each, or 11% each, as compared with the 2011 period. The increase resulted from higher gross margins in our Polyurethanes and Pigments segments, offset in part by lower margins in our remaining segments. See "—Segment Analysis" below.
- •
- Our operating expenses and the operating expenses of Huntsman International for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $29 million and $30 million, respectively, or 4% each, as compared with the 2011 period. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to the impact of foreign currency translation in 2012 and a $33 million decrease in costs related to legal claims in 2012, offset in part by a $4 million loss recognized in the third quarter of 2012 in connection with the Russian Systems House Acquisition, a $12 million gain on the consolidation of our Sasol-Huntsman joint venture recognized in 2011 and the $4 million gain on sale of assets at our Grimsby, U.K. plant recognized in the third quarter of 2011.
- •
- Restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased to $52 million from $171 million in the 2011 period. For more information concerning restructuring activities, see "Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
- •
- Our net interest expense and the net interest expense of Huntsman International for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $15 million and $16 million, respectively, or 8% each, as compared with the 2011 period. The decrease is due to lower average debt balances.
- •
- Our income tax expense and the income tax expense of Huntsman International for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased by $75 million and $77 million, respectively, as compared with the same period in 2011, primarily due to increased pre-tax income. Our income tax expense is affected by the mix of income and losses in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, as impacted by valuation allowances in certain tax jurisdictions. For further information concerning taxes, see "Note 16. Income Taxes" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).

Amendment to Credit Agreement
On March 6, 2012, Huntsman International entered into a seventh amendment to its Senior Credit Facilities. Among other things, the amendment:
- •
- extended the stated termination date of the Revolving Facility commitments from March 9, 2014 to March 20, 2017;
- •
- reduced the applicable interest rate margin on the Revolving Facility commitments by 0.50%;
- •
- set the undrawn commitment fee on the Revolving Facility at 0.50%;
- •
- increased the capacity for the Revolving Facility commitments from $300 million to $400 million;
- •
- extended the stated maturity date of $346 million aggregate principal amount of Term Loan B from April 19, 2014 to April 19, 2017 (now referred to as Extended Term Loan B—Series 2);
- •
- increased the interest rate margin with respect to Extended Term Loan B—Series 2 to LIBOR plus 3.00% (the interest rate margin is subject to a leverage-based step-down, which was achieved based on June 30, 2012 results); and
- •
- set the amortization on the Extended Term Loan B—Series 2 at 1% of the principal amount.
Redemption of Notes and Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we redeemed or repurchased the following notes (monetary amounts in millions):

Other Debt
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, HPS repaid $2 million and RMB 120 million (approximately $19 million) on term loans and working capital loans under its secured facilities. As of September 30, 2012, HPS had $10 million and RMB 354 million (approximately $56 million) outstanding under its secured facilities. In connection with these payments, the lenders agreed to release our Company as a guarantor.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, HPS repaid RMB 229 million (approximately $36 million) under its loan facility for working capital loans and discounting of commercial drafts. As of September 30, 2012, HPS had RMB 270 million (approximately $43 million) outstanding, which is classified as current portion of debt on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited).
On March 30, 2012, we repaid the remaining A$26 million (approximately $27 million) outstanding under our Australian Credit Facility, which represents repayment of A$14 million (approximately $15 million) under the revolving facility and A$12 million (approximately $12 million) under the term loan facility.
Note Payable from Huntsman International to Huntsman Corporation
As of September 30, 2012, there was $707 million outstanding under the Intercompany Note owed us by Huntsman International. The Intercompany Note is unsecured and $100 million of the outstanding amount is classified as current as of both September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited). As of September 30, 2012, under the terms of the Intercompany Note, Huntsman International promises to pay us interest on the unpaid principal amount at a rate per annum based on the previous monthly average borrowing rate obtained under our U.S. A/R Program, less ten basis points (provided that the rate shall not exceed an amount that is 25 basis points less than the monthly average borrowing rate obtained for the U.S. LIBOR-based borrowings under our Revolving Facility).
COMPLIANCE WITH COVENANTS
We believe that we are in compliance with the covenants contained in the agreements governing our material debt instruments, including our Senior Credit Facilities, our A/R Programs and our notes.
Our material financing arrangements contain certain covenants with which we must comply. A failure to comply with a covenant could result in a default under a financing arrangement unless we obtained an appropriate waiver or forbearance (as to which we can provide no assurance). A default under these material financing arrangements generally allows debt holders the option to declare the underlying debt obligations immediately due and payable. Furthermore, certain of our material financing arrangements contain cross default and cross acceleration provisions under which a failure to comply with the covenants in one financing arrangement may result in an event of default under another financing arrangement.
Our Senior Credit Facilities are subject to the Leverage Covenant which applies only to the Revolving Facility and is tested at the Huntsman International level. The Leverage Covenant is applicable only if borrowings, letters of credit or guarantees are outstanding under the Revolving Facility (cash collateralized letters of credit or guarantees are not deemed outstanding). The Leverage Covenant is a net senior secured leverage ratio covenant which requires that Huntsman International's ratio of senior secured debt to EBITDA (as defined in the applicable agreement) is not more than 3.75 to 1.
If in the future Huntsman International fails to comply with the Leverage Covenant, then we may not have access to liquidity under our Revolving Facility. If Huntsman International failed to comply
90
with the Leverage Covenant at a time when we had uncollateralized loans or letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Facility, Huntsman International would be in default under the Senior Credit Facilities, and, unless Huntsman International obtained a waiver or forbearance with respect to such default (as to which we can provide no assurance), Huntsman International could be required to pay off the balance of the Senior Credit Facilities in full, and we may not have further access to such facilities.
The agreements governing our A/R Programs also contain certain receivable performance metrics. Any material failure to meet the applicable A/R Programs' metrics in the future could lead to an early termination event under the A/R Programs, which could require us to cease our use of such facilities, prohibiting us from additional borrowings against our receivables or, at the discretion of the lenders, requiring that we repay the A/R Programs in full. An early termination event under the A/R Programs would also constitute an event of default under our Senior Credit Facilities, which could require us to pay off the balance of the Senior Credit Facilities in full and could result in the loss of our Senior Credit Facilities.
SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM LIQUIDITY
We depend upon our cash, credit facilities, A/R Programs and other debt instruments to provide liquidity for our operations and working capital needs. As of September 30, 2012, we had $1,038 million of combined cash and unused borrowing capacity, consisting of $444 million in cash and restricted cash, $381 million in availability under our Revolving Facility, and $213 million in availability under our A/R Programs. Our liquidity can be significantly impacted by various factors. The following matters had, or are expected to have, a significant impact on our liquidity:
- •
- Cash invested in our accounts receivable and inventory, net of accounts payable, increased by approximately $232 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (unaudited). We expect volatility in our working capital components to continue.
- •
- During 2012, we expect to spend approximately $425 million to $450 million on capital expenditures. We expect to fund this spending with cash provided by operations.
- •
- During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we made contributions to our pension and postretirement benefit plans of $124 million. During 2012, we expect to contribute an additional amount of approximately $31 million to these plans.
- •
- During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, Huntsman International redeemed €64 million (approximately $86 million) of its 7.50% senior subordinated notes due 2015, repaid $89 million on our Senior Secured Credit Facility, repaid A$26 million (approximately $27 million) related to the Australian Credit Facility, and repaid $2 million and RMB 349 million (approximately $55 million) associated with our various HPS debt facilities.
- •
- We are also involved in a number of cost reduction programs for which we have established restructuring accruals. As of September 30, 2012, we had $84 million of accrued restructuring costs from continuing operations and we expect to incur and pay additional restructuring and plant closing costs of approximately $20 million. We expect to spend approximately $20 million for capital expenditures related to restructuring programs over the next several years.
On September 8, 2009, we announced the closure of our styrenics facility located at West Footscray, Australia. We ceased the Australian styrenics operations during the first quarter of 2010. As of September 30, 2012, we had restructuring accruals of $6 million and environmental remediation accruals of $30 million. We can provide no assurance that the eventual environmental remediation costs will not be materially different from our current estimate. The
91
- •
- On August 5, 2011, we announced that our Board of Directors has authorized our Company to repurchase up to $100 million in shares of our common stock. During 2011, we acquired approximately four million shares of our outstanding common stock for approximately $50 million under the repurchase program. As of September 30, 2012, there remained approximately $50 million of the amount authorized under the program that could be used for stock repurchases. These repurchases may be commenced or suspended from time to time without prior notice.
plant closure and environmental remediation costs are expected to be funded as they are incurred over the next several years.
As of September 30, 2012, we had $130 million classified as current portion of debt which consists of certain scheduled term payments and various short-term facilities including an HPS borrowing facility in China with $43 million outstanding, scheduled amortization payments at our VIEs of $25 million, $24 million related to the annual financing of our insurance premiums, and certain other short term facilities and scheduled amortization payments totaling $38 million. Although we cannot provide assurances, we intend to renew or extend the majority of these short-term facilities in the current period.
As of September 30, 2012, we had approximately $228 million of cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, held by our foreign subsidiaries, including our VIEs. Additionally, we have material intercompany debt obligations owed to us by our non-U.S. subsidiaries. We intend to use cash held in our foreign subsidiaries to fund our local operations. Nevertheless, we could repatriate cash as dividends or as repayments of intercompany debt. If foreign cash were repatriated as dividends, the dividends could be subject to adverse tax consequences. At present, we estimate that we will generate sufficient cash in our U.S. operations, together with the payments of intercompany debt if necessary, to meet our cash needs in the U.S and we do not expect to repatriate material cash to the U.S. as dividends in the near term. Cash held by certain foreign subsidiaries, including our VIEs, may also be subject to legal restrictions, including those arising from the interests of our partners, which could limit the amounts available for repatriation.
RESTRUCTURING, IMPAIRMENT AND PLANT CLOSING COSTS
Our Polyurethanes, Advanced Materials, Textile Effects and Pigments segments are involved in cost reduction programs that are expected to reduce costs in these businesses by approximately $190 million. These cost savings are expected to be achieved through the third quarter of 2013. For further discussion of these plans and the costs involved, see "Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our critical accounting policies are presented in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity pricing risks. From time to time, we enter into transactions, including transactions involving derivative instruments, to manage certain of these exposures.
All derivatives, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, are recorded on our balance sheet at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged items are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, to the extent effective, and will be recognized in the income statement when the hedged item affects earnings. To the extent applicable, we perform effectiveness assessments in order to use hedge accounting at each reporting period. For a derivative that does not qualify as a hedge, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.
We also hedge our net investment in certain European operations. Changes in the fair value of the hedge in the net investment of certain European operations are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Our cash flows and earnings are subject to fluctuations due to exchange rate variation. Our revenues and expenses are denominated in various foreign currencies. From time to time, we may enter into foreign currency derivative instruments to minimize the short-term impact of movements in foreign currency rates. Where practicable, we generally net multi-currency cash balances among our subsidiaries to help reduce exposure to foreign currency exchange rates. Certain other exposures may be managed from time to time through financial market transactions, principally through the purchase of spot or forward foreign exchange contracts (generally with maturities of one year or less). We do not hedge our foreign currency exposures in a manner that would eliminate the effect of changes in exchange rates on our cash flows and earnings. As of September 30, 2012, we had approximately $199 million in notional amount (in U.S. dollar equivalents) outstanding in forward foreign currency contracts.
On December 9, 2009, we entered into a five-year interest rate contract to hedge the variability caused by monthly changes in cash flow due to associated changes in LIBOR under our Senior Credit Facilities. The notional value of the contract is $50 million, and it has been designated as a cash flow hedge. The effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the swap was recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). We will pay a fixed 2.6% on the hedge and receive the one-month LIBOR rate. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of the hedge was $3 million and was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited).
On January 19, 2010, we entered into an additional five-year interest rate contract to hedge the variability caused by monthly changes in cash flow due to associated changes in LIBOR under our Senior Credit Facilities. The notional value of the contract is $50 million, and it has been designated as a cash flow hedge. The effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the swap was recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). We will pay a fixed 2.8% on the hedge and receive the one-month
93
LIBOR rate. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of the hedge was $3 million and was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited).
On September 1, 2011, we entered into a $50 million forward interest rate contract that will begin in December 2014 with maturity in April 2017 and a $50 million forward interest rate contract that will begin in January 2015 with maturity in April 2017. These two forward contracts are to hedge the variability caused by monthly changes in cash flow due to associated changes in LIBOR under our Senior Credit Facilities once our existing interest rate hedges mature. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and the effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the swaps were recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). Both interest rate contracts will pay a fixed 2.5% on the hedge and receive the one-month LIBOR rate once the contracts begin in 2014 and 2015, respectively. As of September 30, 2012, the combined fair value of these two hedges was $4 million and was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited).
In 2009, Sasol-Huntsman entered into derivative transactions to hedge the variable interest rate associated with its local credit facility. These hedges include a floating to fixed interest rate contract providing Sasol-Huntsman with EURIBOR interest payments for a fixed payment of 3.62% and a cap for future periods with a strike price of 3.62%. In connection with the consolidation of Sasol-Huntsman as of April 1, 2011, the interest rate contract is now included in our consolidated results. See "Note 5. Variable Interest Entities" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited). The notional amount of the hedge as of September 30, 2012 was €47 million (approximately $61 million) and the derivative transactions do not qualify for hedge accounting. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of this hedge was €2 million (approximately $3 million) and the hedge was recorded in other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited). For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded interest expense of less than €1 million (less than $1 million) due to changes in the fair value of the swap.
Beginning in 2009, Arabian Amines Company entered into a 12-year floating to fixed interest rate contract providing for a receipt of LIBOR interest payments for a fixed payment of 5.02%. In connection with the consolidation of Arabian Amines Company as of July 1, 2010, the interest rate contract is now included in our consolidated results. See "Note 5. Variable Interest Entities" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited). The notional amount of the swap as of September 30, 2012 was $36 million, and the interest rate contract is not designated as a cash flow hedge. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of the swap was $6 million and was recorded as other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited). For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded interest expense of less than $1 million due to changes in the fair value of the swap.
In conjunction with the issuance of the 8.625% senior subordinated notes due 2020, we entered into cross-currency interest rate contracts with three counterparties. On March 17, 2010, we paid $350 million to these counterparties and received €255 million from these counterparties and at maturity on March 15, 2015 we are required to pay €255 million and will receive $350 million. On March 15 and September 15 of each year, we will receive U.S. dollar interest payments of approximately $15 million (equivalent to an annual rate of 8.625%) and make interest payments of approximately €11 million (equivalent to an annual rate of approximately 8.41%). These swaps are designated as a hedge of net investment for financial reporting purposes. As of September 30, 2012, the fair value of these swaps was $29 million and was recorded in noncurrent assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets (unaudited).
As of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the changes in fair value of the realized gains (losses) recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations (unaudited) of our other outstanding foreign currency rate hedging contracts and derivatives were not considered significant.
94
A significant portion of our intercompany debt is denominated in euros. We also finance certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries with intercompany loans that are, in many cases, denominated in currencies other than the entities' functional currency. We manage the net foreign currency exposure created by this debt through various means, including cross-currency swaps, the designation of certain intercompany loans as permanent loans because they are not expected to be repaid in the foreseeable future ("permanent loans") and the designation of certain debt and swaps as net investment hedges.
Foreign currency transaction gains and losses on intercompany loans that are not designated as permanent loans are recorded in earnings. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses on intercompany loans that are designated as permanent loans are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). From time to time, we review such designation of intercompany loans.
From time to time, we review our non-U.S. dollar denominated debt and swaps to determine the appropriate amounts designated as hedges. As of September 30, 2012, we have designated €255 million (approximately $327 million) of euro-denominated debt and cross-currency interest rate swaps as a hedge of our net investments. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the amount of loss recognized on the hedge of our net investments was $6 million and approximately $1 million, respectively, and was recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). As of September 30, 2012, we had €1,211 million (approximately $1,558 million) in net euro assets.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2012. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, in that they ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
No changes to our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). However, we can only give reasonable assurance that our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect material misstatements on a timely basis. Ineffective internal controls over financial reporting could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and could result in a lower trading price for our securities.
On July 27, 2012, the Canadian courts approved, and we have since paid, the settlement of the two cases filed against us in Canada on behalf of purported classes of Canadian direct and indirect purchasers of MDI, TDI and polyether polyols. We had reached agreement to resolve these cases in April 2012, pending court approval. These cases were filed against us on May 5 and 17, 2006, in the Superior Court of Justice, Ontario, Canada and Superior Court, Province of Quebec, District of Quebec and allege that we conspired to fix the prices of polyether polyols products. The settlement is in an amount immaterial to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited). For more information concerning antitrust matters, see "Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies—Legal Matters—Antitrust Matters" to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).
