Terms defined there are used herein. Part I Item 1. Business General-See inside front cover and pages 8 and 9 of the 1994 annual report to stockholders for information about Union Carbide's business. On April 27, 1994, stockholders voted to approve the merger of Union Carbide Corporation (UCC) into Union Carbide Chemicals and Plastics Company Inc. (UCC&P). The merger was effective May 1, 1994. Immediately after the merger, UCC&P had the same consolidated assets, liabilities and stockholders' equity as UCC. UCC&P has changed its name to Union Carbide Corporation. All references to Union Carbide Corporation, the corporation or UCC after the periods starting May 1, 1994, are a reference to the merged company. Union Carbide is engaged in the chemicals and plastics business. The chemicals and plastics industry, especially the commodity sector, is highly cyclical. Union Carbide is a major producer of certain commodity chemicals, principally ethylene glycol and polyethylene. Consequently, Union Carbide's results are subject to the swings of the cycle in those basic chemicals. See pages 4 through 7 of the 1994 annual report to stockholders for a further discussion. Union Carbide does not produce against a backlog of firm orders; production is geared primarily to the level of incoming orders and to projections of future demand. Inventories of finished products, work in process and raw materials are maintained to meet delivery requirements of customers and Union Carbide's production schedules. At year-end 1994, 12,004 people were employed worldwide in approximately 40 plants, factories and laboratories around the world. Raw Materials, Products and Markets-See information herein and in the 1994 annual report to stockholders on pages 8 and 9. Unless otherwise indicated, the products of Union Carbide are sold principally by its own sales force, directly to customers. Union Carbide believes it has contracts or commitments for, or readily available sources of, hydrocarbon feedstocks and fuel supplies to meet its anticipated needs in all major product areas. The corporation's operations are dependent upon the availability of hydrocarbon feedstocks and fuels which are purchased from diverse domestic and international sources, including independent oil and gas producers as well as integrated oil companies. The availability and price of hydrocarbon feedstocks, energy and finished products are subject to plant interruptions and outages and to market and political conditions in the U.S. and elsewhere. Operations and products at times may be adversely affected by legislation, government regulations, shortages, or international or domestic events. Union Carbide is not dependent to a significant extent upon a single customer or a few customers. Patents; Trademarks; Research and Development-Union Carbide owns a large number of United States and foreign patents that relate to a wide variety of products and processes, has pending a substantial number of patent applications throughout the world, and is licensed under a number of patents. These patents expire at various times over the next 20 years. Such patents and patent applications in the aggregate are material to Union Carbide's competitive position. No one patent is considered to be material; however, the patent portfolio relating to the UNIPOL polyethylene process technology is, in the aggregate, considered to be material. Union Carbide also has a large number of trademarks. The UNION CARBIDE, UCAR and UNIPOL trademarks are material; no other single trademark is material. Essentially all of Union Carbide's research and development activities are company-sponsored. The principal research and development facilities of Union Carbide are indicated in the discussion of Properties (Item 2) of this Form 10-K report. In addition to the facilities specifically indicated there, product development and process technology laboratories are maintained at some plants. Union Carbide spent $136 million in 1994, $139 million in 1993 and $155 million in 1992 on company-sponsored research activities to develop new products, processes, or services, or to improve existing ones. Environment-See Costs Relating to Protection of the Environment on pages 14 and 15 of the 1994 annual report to stockholders and Note 16 on pages 35 and 36 thereof. Insurance-Union Carbide's policy is to obtain public liability insurance coverage at terms and conditions and a price that management considers fair and reasonable. Union Carbide's management believes Union Carbide has public liability insurance in an amount sufficient to meet its current needs in light of pending, threatened, and future litigation and claims. There is no assurance, however, that Union Carbide will not incur losses beyond the limits, or outside the coverage, of its insurance. Such insurance is subject to substantial deductibles. Competition-Each of the major products and services areas in which Union Carbide participates is highly competitive. In some instances competition comes from manufacturers of the same products as those produced by Union Carbide and in other cases from manufacturers of different products which may serve the same markets as those served by Union Carbide's products. Some of Union Carbide's competitors, such as companies principally engaged in petroleum operations, have more direct access to hydrocarbon feedstocks, and some have greater financial resources than Union Carbide. There are a number of competitors in each of the products and services areas in which Union Carbide is active. In some of the individual areas in which Union Carbide participates there are many competitors; in others there are few. Competition is primarily on price, on product performance and on service to customers. - - Many producers have important industry positions in polyethylene, and Union Carbide is one of the world's largest producers. Other significant producers are Dow Chemical Company, Chevron Corporation, Exxon Corporation, Mobil Corporation, Novacor Chemicals Ltd, Quantum Chemicals Corporation, Occidental Petroleum Corporation, Phillips Petroleum Company, Saudi Basic Industries Corporation and The British Petroleum Company p.l.c. - - Union Carbide is the world's largest producer of ethylene oxide/glycol and derivatives. Other significant producers include Shell Oil Company, Dow Chemical Company, BASF Aktiengesellschaft, The British Petroleum Company p.l.c., Huntsman Corporation, ICI p.l.c., Occidental Petroleum Corporation, Hoechst Celanese Corporation, and Saudi Basic Industries Corporation. - - In solvents and intermediates and emulsion systems, Union Carbide has a significant position in many product areas. Other significant producers include Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., Hoechst Celanese Corporation, Rohm & Haas Company, Eastman Chemical Company, Shell Oil Company, Exxon Corporation, BASF Aktiengesellschaft and Quantum Chemicals Corporation. - - Union Carbide participates in a wide range of specialty chemical product/market areas. The competitive position varies widely from one product/market area to another. Competitors include a number of domestic and foreign companies, both diversified and specialized. Union Carbide is a major marketer of petrochemical products throughout the world. Products that the corporation markets are largely produced in the United States, while competitive products are produced throughout the world. In addition, the corporation plans to make significant investments in joint ventures in 1995. See pages 4 through 7 of the 1994 annual report to stockholders for a further discussion. Union Carbide's international operations face competition from local producers and global competitors and a number of other risks inherent in carrying on business outside the United States, including risks of nationalization, expropriation, restrictive action by local governments and changes in currency exchange rates. Item 2. Properties In management's opinion, current facilities, together with planned expansions, will provide adequate production capacity to meet Union Carbide's planned business activities. Capital expenditures are discussed on pages 17 and 19 of the 1994 annual report to stockholders. Listed below are the principal manufacturing facilities operated by Union Carbide worldwide. Research and engineering facilities are noted. Most of the domestic properties are owned in fee. Union Carbide maintains numerous domestic sales offices and warehouses, substantially all of which are leased premises under relatively short-term leases. All principal international operations manufacturing properties are owned or held under long-term leases. International operations administrative offices, technical service laboratories, sales offices and warehouses are owned in some instances and held under relatively short-term leases in other instances. The corporation's headquarters are located in Danbury, Connecticut, and are leased.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings See Note 16 of Notes to Financial Statements on pages 35 and 36 of the 1994 annual report to stockholders. On September 28, 1993, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the service of an administrative complaint on Rhone-Poulenc Ag Company (R-P) alleging violations of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act with respect to operation of the hazardous waste boiler at Institute, West Virginia. The complaint seeks to assess a civil penalty of $915,125 against R- P. If the complaint is sustained, under an agreement between R-P and the corporation, the corporation may be required to indemnify R-P for a portion of any penalty ultimately paid by R-P. On February 23, 1994, the EPA issued a complaint and compliance order to the corporation alleging violations of Federal Hazardous Waste Regulations at the South Charleston, West Virginia, plant. The complaint seeks a civil penalty of $320,300. The corporation is contesting the alleged violations and proposed penalty. On March 31, 1994, the EPA issued an administrative Complaint, Compliance Order and Notice of Opportunity for Hearing to the corporation alleging violations of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, and the Texas Solid Waste Disposal Act at the corporation's Texas City, Texas, plant. EPA proposes to assess a civil penalty of $139,000. The corporation has requested a hearing and is contesting the alleged violations and proposed penalty. On February 14, 1995, the EPA issued a complaint to the corporation alleging violations of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act with a proposed civil penalty of $400,000. This matter concerns a discontinued medical instrument sterilant. The corporation voluntarily requested cancellation of its pesticide registration. As reported in the corporation's Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 1993, the EPA issued an administrative complaint to the corporation on November 19, 1993, alleging violations of the Federal Clean Air Act at the Texas City, Texas, plant. The complaint sought a civil penalty of $194,550. On October 13, 1994, the corporation and EPA reached a settlement of this matter pursuant to which the corporation agreed to pay a penalty of $57,500. Item 4.
