Item 2.01  Completion of Disposition of Assets.

 

On December 30, 2016, Huntsman Investments (Netherlands) BV (“HIBV”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Huntsman Corporation (the “Company”), completed the previously announced sale of HIBV’s European surfactants manufacturing facilities and related assets for an enterprise value of $225 million to Innospec International LTD (“Innospec”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Innospec Inc., pursuant to the Share and Asset Purchase Agreement entered into by and between HIBV and Innospec dated October 25, 2016, which was amended and restated on December 22, 2016 to make minor clarifications (the “Agreement”).

 

The Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants and provides for indemnification rights with respect to a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by either party, as well as for other specified matters.

 

The foregoing description of the terms of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated into this report by reference.

 

The Agreement has been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company or HIBV. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Agreement were made only for purposes of the Agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the Agreement. The representations and warranties may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors.

In connection with the completion of the transaction referred to in Item 2.01 above, on December 30, 2016, the Company issued a press release. The press release is attached herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
