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 itself is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.</p>

Item 5.   Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not

Item 6.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Delaware
.   Under Section 145
of the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may indemnify any person
who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a
3
director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against 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 (i) if such
person acted in good faith and in a manner that person reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and (ii) with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if he or she had no reasonable
cause to believe such conduct was unlawful. In actions brought by or in the
right of the corporation, a corporation may indemnify such person against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such
person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such
person acted in good faith and in a manner that person reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no
indemnification may be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to
which that person will have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation
unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of
Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought will determine
upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all
circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnification for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or other such
court will deem proper. To the extent that such person has been successful on
the merits or otherwise in defending any such action, suit or proceeding
referred to above or any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she is entitled
to indemnification for expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith. The indemnification
and advancement of expenses provided for or granted pursuant to Section 145
is not exclusive of any other rights of indemnification or advancement of
expenses to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may
be entitled, and a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance against
liabilities asserted against any former or current director, officer, employee
or agent of the corporation, or a person who is or was serving at the request of
the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, whether or
not the power to indemnify is provided by the statute.
Article X of the
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Article VI of the
Bylaws of Chemtura Corporation provide for the indemnification of directors and
officers as authorized by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation
Law. The directors and officers of Chemtura and its subsidiaries are insured
(subject to certain exceptions and deductions) against liabilities which they
may incur in their capacity as such including liabilities under the Securities
Act, under liability insurance policies carried by Chemtura.
Item 7.   Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not
applicable.
Item 8.   Exhibits
See Exhibit Index which is
incorporated herein by reference.
The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that it (or Great Lakes) will submit
or has submitted the Great Lakes Savings Plan and any amendment thereto to the
Internal Revenue Service in a timely manner and has made or will make all
changes required by the Internal Revenue Service in order to qualify such plan
under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Item
9.   Undertakings.
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");
4
(ii)
To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes
in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee"
table in the effective 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 (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the registration
statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3,
and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to
the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the 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.
4.
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 the registration statement 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.
5.
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 itself is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.
