Factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include,
but are not limited to: the time required to consummate the acquisition of the Dyneema business;
the satisfaction or waiver of conditions in the purchase agreement; completion of the consultation
process with the relevant Dutch works council; the ability to obtain required regulatory or other
third-party approvals and consents and otherwise consummate the proposed acquisition of the
Dyneema business; our ability to achieve the strategic and other objectives relating to the
proposed acquisition of the Dyneema business and possible sale of the distribution business;
disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the
availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future; the effect
on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory
risks; the current and potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results
of operations, financial position or cash flows; changes in polymer consumption growth rates and
laws and regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct business; fluctuations
in raw material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; production outages
or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs;
unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and
environmental matters; an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services; information
systems failures and cyberattacks; and other factors affecting our business beyond our control,
including without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates and
