</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Reference is made to Section&nbsp;102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the &#147;DGCL&#148;),
which enables a corporation in its original certificate of incorporation or an amendment thereto to
eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director for violations of the director&#146;s fiduciary
duty, except (i)&nbsp;for any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;pursuant to Section&nbsp;174 of the DGCL (providing for liability
of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions) or (iv)
for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Reference also is made to Section&nbsp;145 of the DGCL which provides that a corporation may
indemnify any persons, including officers and directors, who are, or are threatened to be made,
parties to any threatened, pending or completed legal action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such
corporation), by reason of the fact that such person was an officer, director, employee or agent of
such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses
(including attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided
such officer, director, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation&#146;s best interests and, for criminal proceedings,
had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may
indemnify officers and directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same
conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or
director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on
the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must
indemnify him or her against the expenses which such officer or director actually and reasonably
incurred.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company
provide for indemnification of officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company may enter into contracts with its officers and directors requiring the Company to
indemnify such persons and to advance litigation expenses to such persons to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law. Delaware law presently permits a Delaware corporation (i)&nbsp;to indemnify
any officer or director in any third-party or governmental actions against them for expenses,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and, in derivative actions, for expenses, if the
indemnitee acted in good faith and in the manner he or she believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interest of such corporation, and (ii)&nbsp;to advance expenses in any action, provided that such
officer or director agrees to reimburse the corporation if it is

permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)
is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled
by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The Libbey Inc. 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Plan") authorizes the issuance of a
maximum of 749,240 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock") of
Libbey Inc. (the "Company") plus shares authorized for issuance under the Amended and Restated
Libbey Inc. Stock Option Plan for Key Employees and the Amended and Restated 1999 Equity
Participation Plan of Libbey Inc. (collectively, the "Prior Plans") less awards under the
Prior Plans between January 1, 2006 and May 4, 2006. This
Registration Statement registers 3,033,306 shares of Common Stock of the Company for issuance pursuant to the Plan,
which represents 749,240 newly registered shares issuable under the
Plan and 2,284,066 shares from the Prior Plans which were previously registered on Form S-8 filed by the Company
on June 20, 1994 (Registration No. 33-80448),
October 17, 1995 (Registration No. 33-98237), November 1, 2000 and September 30, 2004. Pursuant to Rule 416(a) of
the Securities Act, this Registration also covers any additional shares of the Company's
Common Stock that may become issuable under the Plan by reason of any substitutions or
adjustments to shares to account for any change in corporate capitalization, such as a merger,
consolidation, reorganization , recapitalization, separation, partial or complete liquidation,
stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split up, spin-off, or other distribution of
stock or property of the Company, combination or exchange of shares of Common Stock, dividend
in kind, or other like change in capital structure.
(2)
The Proposed Maximum Offering Price is based on: (i) the weighted average exercise price per
share of $27.3855 as to 1,507,826 outstanding but unexercised options to purchase Common Stock
under the Prior Plans, and (ii) of $11.56 (the average of the high and low prices for the Common Stock quoted

Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference

Item 4. Description of Securities
Not required to be filed with this Registration Statement.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Reference is made to Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"),
which enables a corporation in its original certificate of incorporation or an amendment thereto to
eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director for violations of the director's fiduciary
duty, except (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL (providing for liability
of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions) or (iv)
for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit.
Reference also is made to Section 145 of the DGCL which provides that a corporation may
indemnify any persons, including officers and directors, who are, or are threatened to be made,
parties to any threatened, pending or completed legal action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such
corporation), by reason of the fact that such person was an officer, director, employee or agent of
such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses
(including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided
such officer, director, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests and, for criminal proceedings,
had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may
indemnify officers and directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same
conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or
director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on
the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must
indemnify him or her against the expenses which such officer or director actually and reasonably
incurred.
The Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company
provide for indemnification of officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law.
The Company may enter into contracts with its officers and directors requiring the Company to
indemnify such persons and to advance litigation expenses to such persons to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law. Delaware law presently permits a Delaware corporation (i) to indemnify
any officer or director in any third-party or governmental actions against them for expenses,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and, in derivative actions, for expenses, if the
indemnitee acted in good faith and in the manner he or she believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interest of such corporation, and (ii) to advance expenses in any action, provided that such
officer or director agrees to reimburse the corporation if it is

ultimately determined that he or she was not entitled to indemnification. Such contracts may
require the Company to (i) indemnify such officers and directors upon receipt of an opinion of
counsel in certain cases, (ii) pay indemnity demands pending a determination of entitlement
thereto, and (iii) demonstrate, in any action brought thereunder, that such officer or director was
not entitled to indemnification under applicable law.

Item 9. Undertakings
(a)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-
- 4 -

effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) shall not apply to information
contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which
remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to
section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)
is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled
by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
