  15. Comments on Pricing • Current pricing is predominantly influenced by Feedstock prices • Crude Oil Prices have remained high • Supply issues with Crackers have meant high monomer values • Crude normally traded in $’s, so currency movements affect feedstock values • Overall global supply/demand balance strongly influenced by Chinese growth rates 16

  21. The Changing World of Propylene • Shift to Ethane feedstock in North America – Shale Gas • Emphasis on continued use of Ethane in Middle East • Limited co-product supply • Ethylene derivatives in surplus – propylene shortage • Limited availability of propylene within refinery systems in North America and Europe • Forecast demand growth implies propylene must be sourced elsewhere • Propane Dehydrogenation in ME and US • Refineries and Coal in Asia • Higher investment costs imply higher propylene values 22

  23. Conclusions • Pricing in Commodity Polymer Markets are currently driven by feedstock prices • Main driver for Feedstock Prices are Oil/Gas prices and Exchange Rates • Shale Gas developments in North America will lead to a significant cost advantage for C2 producers there • North America will become a significant exporter of Ethylene derivatives • Move to Ethane from Shale Gas for Ethylene will lead to shortage of Propylene, with oversupply of Ethylene • Non-traditional routes to Propylene are more expensive, so price differential between C2 and C3 will increase 24
