Table of Contents
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement contains and incorporates by reference "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). You can identify our forward-looking statements by the words "anticipate," "estimate,"
"believe," "continue," "could," "intend," "may," "plan," "potential," "predict," "should," "will," "expect," "objective,"
"projection," "forecast," "goal," "guidance," "outlook," "effort," "target" and similar expressions.
We based the forward-looking statements on our current expectations, estimates and projections about ourselves and the
industries in which we operate in general. We caution you these statements are not guarantees of future performance as they involve
assumptions that, while made in good faith, may prove to be incorrect, and involve risks and uncertainties we cannot predict. In
addition, we based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate.
Accordingly, our actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what we have expressed or forecast in the forward-looking
statements. Any differences could result from a variety of factors, including the following:

·
the cost of raw materials represents a substantial portion of our operating expenses, and energy costs generally follow

price trends of crude oil and/or natural gas; price volatility can significantly affect our results of operations and we may be
unable to pass raw material and energy cost increases on to our customers;

·
our U.S. operations have benefited from low-cost natural gas and natural gas liquids; decreased availability of these
materials (for example, from their export or regulations impacting hydraulic fracturing in the U.S.) could reduce the current

benefits we receive; similarly, if crude oil prices fell materially, we would see less benefit from low-cost natural gas and
natural gas liquids;

·
industry production capacities and operating rates may lead to periods of oversupply and low profitability; for example,

there has been substantial capacity expansion announced in the U.S. olefins industry;

·
we may face operating interruptions at any of our facilities, which would negatively impact our operating results; for

example, because the Houston refinery is our only refining operation, we would not have the ability to increase production
elsewhere to mitigate the impact of any outage at that facility;

·
regulations may negatively impact our business by, among other things, restricting our operations, increasing costs of

operations or requiring significant capital expenditures;

·
we face significant competition due to the commodity nature of many of our products and may not be able to protect our

market position or otherwise pass on cost increases to our customers;

·
changes in general economic, business, political and regulatory conditions in the countries or regions in which we operate

could increase our costs, restrict our operations and reduce our operating results;

·
our ability to implement business strategies may be negatively affected or restricted by, among other things, governmental

regulations or policies;

·
uncertainties associated with worldwide economies could create reductions in demand and pricing, as well as increased

counterparty risks, which could reduce liquidity or cause financial losses resulting from counterparty default;

·
the negative outcome of any legal, tax and environmental proceedings or changes in laws or regulations regarding legal, tax

and environmental matters may increase our costs or otherwise limit our ability to achieve savings under current
regulations;

·
we may be required to reduce production or idle certain facilities because of the cyclical and volatile nature of the supply-

demand balance in the chemical and refining industries, which would negatively affect our operating results;

·
we rely on continuing technological innovation, and an inability to protect our technology, or others' technological

developments could negatively impact our competitive position;

Table of Contents
·
we have substantial international operations, and continued economic uncertainties, fluctuations in exchange rates,

valuations of currencies and our ability to access cash from operations in certain jurisdictions on a tax-efficient basis, if at
all, could negatively affect our liquidity and our results of operations;

·
we are subject to the risks of doing business at a global level, including wars, terrorist activities, political and economic

instability and disruptions and changes in governmental policies, which could cause increased expenses, decreased
demand or prices for our products and/or disruptions in operations, all of which could reduce our operating results;

·
if we are unable to comply with the terms of our credit facilities and other financing arrangements, those obligations could

be accelerated, which we may not be able to repay; and

·
we may be unable to incur additional indebtedness or obtain financing on terms that we deem acceptable, including for

refinancing of our current obligations; higher interest rates and costs of financing would increase our expenses.
Any of these factors, or a combination of these factors, could materially affect our future results of operations and the ultimate
accuracy of the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and our
actual results and future developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Our management
cautions against putting undue reliance on forward-looking statements or projecting any future results based on such statements or
present or prior earnings levels.
All subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly
qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section and any other cautionary statements that
may accompany such forward looking statements. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update
any forward looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this section, to reflect events or
circumstances after the date of this prospectus supplement.

are typically used in large volume applications. Our customers use our plastics and chemicals to manufacture a wide range of
products that people use in their everyday lives including food packaging, home furnishings, automotive components, paints and
coatings. Our refining business consists of our Houston refinery which processes crude oil into products such as gasoline, diesel
and jet fuel.

detailed description of the terms of the notes and the guarantee.

$1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Guaranteed Notes due 2044.
