Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
� 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 financial condition of our customers, including the ability of customers (especially those that may be highly leveraged and those with inadequate
liquidity) to maintain their credit availability;
� The speed and extent of an economic recovery, including the recovery of the housing market;

Forward Looking Statements
� Changes in polymer consumption growth rates in the markets where we conduct business;
� Changes in global industry capacity or in the rate at which anticipated changes in industry capacity come online;
� 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 achieve or delays in achieving or achievement of less than the anticipated financial benefit from initiatives related to working capital
reductions, cost reductions, employee productivity goals, and an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services;
� The ability to successfully integrate acquired companies into our operations, retain the management teams of acquired companies, and retain
