Explanatory Note — Amendment

Chicago Bridge & Iron Company N.V. and Subsidiaries (“CB&I” or “the Company”) is filing this Form 10-K/A solely to include in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the “Annual Report”), pursuant to Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X, consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of Chevron-Lummus Global LLC. CB&I owns a 50% interest in Chevron-Lummus Global LLC.

Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X provides that if a 50% or less owned person accounted for by the equity method meets the first or third condition of the significant subsidiary tests set forth in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X, substituting 20% for 10%, separate financial statements for such 50% or less owned person shall be filed. As Chevron-Lummus Global LLC met such test as of and for the year ended December 31, 2008, CB&I has included in this Form 10-K/A the unaudited financial statements as of and for the year-ended December 31, 2009 and audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2008. Item 15 is the only portion of the Annual Report being supplemented or amended by this Form 10-K/A.

This Form 10-K/A does not change any other information set forth in the original Form 10-K filed by CB&I for the year ended December 31, 2009.

In connection with the filing of this Form 10-K/A and pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission rules, CB&I is including currently dated certifications required by Rules 13a-14(a) and 13a-14(b). This Form 10-K/A does not otherwise update any exhibits as originally filed and does not otherwise reflect events occurring after the original filing date of the Annual Report. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with any CB&I filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Annual Report.
