Caution Statement
  • Some of the information presented in the pages of
    this presentation constitutes forward-looking
    comments within the meaning of the Private
    Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
    Although Albemarle Corporation believes its
    expectations are based on reasonable assumptions
    within the bounds of its knowledge of its
    business and operations, there can be no
    assurance that actual results will not differ
    materially from its expectations.
  • Factors which could cause actual results to
    differ from expectations include, without
    limitation, the timing of orders received from
    customers, the gain or loss of significant
    customers, competition from other manufacturers,
    changes in demand for the Companys products,
    increases in the cost of the product, changes in
    the market in general, fluctuations in foreign
    currencies, and significant changes in new
    product introduction resulting in an increase in
    capital project requests and approvals leading to
    capital spending.
  • Such statements also include, but are not limited
    to, statements about the proposed acquisition by
    Albemarle Corporation of Akzo Nobels refinery
    catalyst business, including financial and
    operating results, the parties plans, beliefs,
    expectations and intentions and other statements
    that are not historical facts. Such statements
    are based upon the current beliefs and
    expectations of management and are subject to
    significant risks and uncertainties. Actual
    results may vary materially from those set forth
    in the forward-looking statements. The following
    factors, among others, could affect the
    consummation of the proposed transaction
    execution of a definitive sale and purchase
    agreement, the advice from Akzo Nobels Works
    Council, the expiration or termination of any
    applicable waiting period under the
    Hart-Scott-Rodino Act and the receipt of other
    competition law clearances. The following
    factors, among others, could affect the
    anticipated results consummation of the
    financing on terms favorable to the Company, the
    ability to integrate successfully the acquired
    business within the expected timeframes or at
    all, and ongoing operations of the business.
    Additional factors that could cause Albemarles
    results to differ materially from those described
    in the forward-looking statements can be found in
    Albemarles Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
    year ended December 31, 2003.

Albemarle History
1887 - Albemarle Paper Manufacturing Company
opens with a handful of employees producing Kraft
and blotting paper.
1921 - The antiknock properties of tetraethyl
lead (TEL) as a gasoline additive are discovered
after a lengthy search by a team of General
Motors research chemists. TEL is to be the
principal product of Ethyl Corporation for more
than 40 years.
1942 - Ethyl Gasoline Corporation changes its
name to Ethyl Corporation to characterize a
broader interest than just gasoline products.
1962 - Albemarle Paper Manufacturing Company
borrows 200 million and purchases Ethyl
Corporation (Delaware), a corporation 13 times
its size, and Ethyl Corporation (Virginia) is
formed. Floyd D. Gottwald becomes Chairman of the
Board.
1976 - Ethyl leaves paper manufacturing with the
sale of Oxford Paper. Ethyl opens a chemical
plant in Feluy, Belgium to make aluminum alkyls.
1996 - Albemarle sells its alpha olefins,
polyalphaolefins and synthetic alcohols
businesses to Amoco for about 500 million.
1998 - Albemarle energizes MA effort to grow the
company based on longstanding foundation
technologies of bromine and organometallic
chemistry, supported by exceptional skill in
process technology.
1987 - Ethyl acquires Dow Chemical's bromine
chemicals business and its Magnolia, Arkansas,
plant.
1994 - Ethyl spins off its chemical businesses to
create an independent, publicly traded company
named Albemarle Corporation
