ARCH CHEMICALS, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) ($ in millions, except share amounts)

1.  Basis of Presentation

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Arch Chemicals, Inc. (including its consolidated subsidiaries, the
Company), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, in the opinion of the Company, reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) which are necessary to present fairly
the results for interim periods.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in
conjunction with the financial statements, accounting policies and the notes thereto and managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2001.  The Companys Treatment segment is seasonal in nature, in particular its HTH water products business as its products are primarily used in the U.S. residential pool market.  Therefore, the results of operations for the
Company and in particular the HTH water products business for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.

Reclassifications of prior-year data have been made, where appropriate, to conform to the 2002 presentation.

2.  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the dilutive effect of stock options.  Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 excludes the impact
of approximately 1.2 million stock options with exercise prices greater than the average market price of the Companys common stock.

The Company accounts for stock-based
compensation under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123).  As allowed under SFAS 123, the Company has chosen to account for stock-based compensation cost
in accordance with APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.  If the Company expensed the issuance of stock options under SFAS 123, net income would have been reduced by $0.6 and $1.1, respectively, and diluted earnings
would have been reduced by $0.03 and $0.05, respectively, per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.

3.  Accounts Receivable/Short-Term Investment

In March 2002, the Company completed arrangements to sell, without recourse, certain accounts receivable through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Arch
Chemicals Receivables Corp., a special-purpose corporation. Arch Chemicals Receivables Corp. entered into a trade accounts receivable securitization agreement with an independent financial institution whereby it can sell, on an ongoing basis,
participation interests in accounts receivable for a maximum purchase price of up to $80.0. The Company has agreed to provide servicing for accounts receivable collections. The proceeds from the sale of participation interests under this arrangement
are subject to change based on the level of eligible receivables. The accounts receivable sold have been reflected as a sale of accounts receivable in accordance with SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities.

ARCH CHEMICALS, INC.Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) ($ in millions, except share amounts)

As of September 30, 2002, the Company had received proceeds of $54.7 from the sale of participation interests in $74.3 of accounts receivable. 
The fair value of the retained undivided interest of $15.2 is classified as a held-to-maturity debt security and is reflected as Short-term Investment on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.  The proceeds of the sale were used
to reduce borrowings.  The costs of the program, including certain one-time fees, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 of $0.4 and $1.3, respectively, are included in Selling and Administration expenses in the accompanying
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.  The Company expects the costs of the accounts receivable securitization program to be a percentage of the fair market value of the participation interests sold.  The percentage is variable and
will be approximately equivalent to the one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.5%.  Fair value of the retained undivided interest includes a reserve for credit losses and has not been discounted due to the short-term nature of the underlying financial
assets.  The Company has not recorded an asset or liability related to the servicing responsibility retained as the fees earned for servicing are estimated to approximate fair value.

4.  Inventories

|                           |  | September 30, 2002 |       | December 31, 2001 |

|Finished goods             |  |                    | 118.6 |                   |

|Inventories, gross         |  |                    | 180.5 |                   |  
|LIFO reserve               |  |                    | (46.4 | )                 |  
|                           |  |                    |       |                   |  
|Inventories, net           |  | $                  | 134.1 |                   | $
|                           |  |                    |       |                   |  

Approximately half of the
Companys inventories are valued by the dollar value last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of inventory accounting.  Costs of other inventories are determined principally by the first-in, first-out method.  Elements of costs in
inventories include raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead.  Inventories under the LIFO method are based on an annual determination of quantities and costs as of the year-end; therefore, the condensed consolidated financial
statements at September 30, 2002 reflect certain estimates relating to inventory quantities and costs at December 31, 2002.

5.  Assets Held For Sale/Discontinued Operations

The Company has accounted for the Hickson International Limited (Hickson) organics division (Castleford, England and Danville, Virginia
operations) in accordance with EITF 87-11, Allocation of Purchase Price to Assets to be Sold (EITF 87-11) through August 31, 2001 and in accordance with APB No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations  Reporting
the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions (APB 30) and EITF No. 90-6, Accounting For Certain Events Not Addressed in Issue No. 87-11
Relating to an Acquired Operating Unit To Be Sold (EITF 90-6) since September 1, 2001. Net earnings (losses) of the Hickson organics division from the acquisition date through August 31, 2001 were not included in the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income, but have been recorded as an adjustment to the net asset value in accordance with EITF 87-11.  The results of operations associated with these assets held for sale and interest allocated to these assets, which
are not included on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income are as follows:

|                                               |  | Three Months EndedSeptember 30, 2001 |     | Nine Months EndedSeptember 30, 2001 |  
|---------------------------------------------- |  | ------------------------------------ | --- | ----------------------------------- | -
|                                               |  |                                      |     |                                     |  
|Pretax income from operations, before interest |  | $                                    | 0.1 |                                     | $
|Interest expense allocated                     |  |                                      | 0.8 |                                     |  

Beginning September 1, 2001, results
of operations of the Hickson organics division are included in Loss From Discontinued Operations, net of tax on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and include an allocation of interest expense.  Sales for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2002 were $16.6

and $46.2, respectively.  Interest allocated to discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 was $0.5 and $1.5, respectively.  Sales and interest allocated to
discontinued operations for the one month ended September 30, 2001 were $5.3 and $0.2, respectively.  Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 include a $1.9 restructuring charge, which related to headcount reductions of
approximately 40 employees, of which approximately 30 have been terminated as of September 30, 2002.  Cash used by assets held for sale was $12.3 and $2.7 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  The increase
in 2002 was due to lower operating results in the Castleford, England business and the sale of the operations in Danville, Virginia, funding of restructuring initiatives of $2.7 and higher working capital due to the timing of certain contract
manufacturing agreements.

In March 2002, the Company completed the sale of its DanChem operations in Danville, Virginia, which was
part of the Hickson organics division, for approximately $25 and recorded a loss on the disposal of $1.5, net of a tax benefit of $0.9.  Proceeds from the sale of these assets have been used to pay down debt.  DanChem sales for the three
months ended March 31, 2002 were $2.9.  Interest allocated to, and after-tax loss of the DanChem operation for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was $0.2 and $0.3, respectively.

Assets held for sale at September 30, 2002 include the Hickson organics division Castleford, England operation and certain land that the Company is in the process of
divesting.  The Hickson organics business has been valued on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at its estimated net selling price. In addition, in accordance with APB 16, the Company has estimated the net future results of
operations through its expected disposition date.    The amounts actually realized (including future operating results) by the Company could differ materially from the amounts estimated in the financial statements and could result in
future gains or losses from discontinued operations or from disposal of this business.  Factors that could influence the ultimate outcome include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, the Companys ability to dispose of the
business within the time, price and manner originally estimated, the retention of key customers during the divesture period, benefit plan costs, including pension and environmental matters.

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144)
effective January 1, 2002.  SFAS 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets.  It also extends the reporting requirements to report separately as discontinued operations, components
of an entity that have either been disposed of or classified as held for sale.  In accordance with the transition provisions in paragraphs 50 and 51 of SFAS 144, the Company continues to account for these assets held for sale in accordance with
APB 30 and EITF 90-6.

The Company continues to actively work on completing the sale of these assets during 2002. However, due to the
current market conditions, it is possible that they may not be sold by the end of the year. If the sale does not occur by such date and if the Company does not continue to meet all of the requirements of SFAS 144, the Company may be required to
discontinue its current accounting and include the results of this division in continuing operations.  As a result, the results of operations, cash flows and balance sheet information of the organics division would be included in all applicable
line items of the Companys consolidated financial statements rather than the current treatment.

6.  Goodwill and Other Intangibles

As of January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS
142), which requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142.  The application of the
non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 resulted in a decrease in amortization of goodwill and other intangibles in the three and nine months ended September 30, of 2002 of $1.5 and $4.3, respectively.  SFAS 142 also requires that intangible
assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and be reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS 144.  The application of this provision of SFAS 142 did not
have a material effect on the Companys results of operations.

The Company is required to test goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment at least annually and upon adoption of
SFAS 142.  The first step of the transitional goodwill impairment assessment is a comparison of the carrying amount of the reporting units to the corresponding fair value of those units.  An impairment charge is recognized for the amount,
if any, by which the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair value.  The initial test for goodwill impairment was completed during the second quarter.  Fair values were established using discounted cash flows.  When available and
as appropriate, comparative market multiples were used to corroborate discounted cash flow results.  The fair market values of the reporting units in all cases exceeded the carrying value of those units, including the allocation of certain

The gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization for other intangible assets as of
September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 are as follows:

Amortization expense for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2002 was $0.9 and $3.5, respectively.  Estimated amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 is $4.4, $2.2, $2.1, $2.0 and $2.0, respectively.

In accordance with SFAS 142, prior period amounts have not been restated.  A reconciliation of reported net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 to net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share as adjusted for the elimination of the amortization of goodwill and certain other intangible assets, net of the related income tax effect, is

7.  Debt

In April 2002, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements under which the Company swaps the 7.94% fixed interest rate on $80.0 principal amount of
unsecured senior notes for floating rate interest based on six-month LIBOR plus 3.045%.  The counterparties to these agreements are major financial institutions.  The agreements expire in March 2007.  The Company has designated the
swap agreements as fair value hedges of the risk of changes in the value of fixed-rate debt due to changes in interest rates, for a portion of its fixed rate borrowings under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133).  Accordingly, the swap agreements have been recorded at their fair market value of $5.9 and are included in Other Assets on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet, with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related debt.  No gain or loss has been recorded as the contracts meet the criteria of SFAS 133 to qualify for hedge accounting treatment with no
ineffectiveness.

In March 2002, the Company issued $211.0 of unsecured senior notes to certain institutional investors in two series. The
Series A notes of $149.0 are due in March 2007 and the Series B notes of $62.0 are due in March 2009 and bear fixed interest rates of 7.94% and 8.24%, respectively, subject to certain leverage ratio requirements.  The notes contain quarterly
leverage ratio (debt/EBITDA) covenants of 4.5 through December 31, 2002 and 3.5 thereafter and fixed coverage ratio covenants of 2.0 through December 31, 2002 and 2.25 thereafter, and restrict the payment of dividends and repurchases of stock in
excess of $65.0 plus 50% of cumulative net income subject to certain adjustments. In addition, the notes contain a debt to total capitalization ratio requirement not to exceed 55%. Proceeds from the issuance of these notes have been used to pay down
debt, including the credit facility used to acquire Hickson (Acquisition Facility).

In January 2002, the Company renewed its
existing 364-day credit facility in the amount of $87.5, which now expires in January 2003 and amended certain prospective financial covenants of this facility and its five-year credit facility to reflect the seasonality of its working capital
requirements. The quarterly leverage ratio was increased to 4.5 for the first quarter of 2002, 4.0 for the second quarter of 2002, 3.75 for the third quarter of 2002 and 3.5 as of December 31, 2002. The restriction on the payment of dividends and
repurchase of shares was also amended to limit payments to $40.0 plus 50% of cumulative net income subject to certain adjustments for the periods beginning December 31, 2001.

8.  Derivative
Instruments and Hedging

The Company accounts for derivatives in accordance with SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No.
138.  The cumulative effect of the accounting change due to the adoption of SFAS 133 as of January 1, 2001 was $0.4 before taxes or $0.2 net of tax, principally due to interest rate swaps acquired in connection with the acquisition of Hickson,
which were cancelled in January 2001.

Foreign Currency

The Company uses
foreign currency forward contracts as a means of hedging exposure to foreign currency risk.  It is the Companys policy to hedge up to 80% of its anticipated purchase and sales commitments denominated or expected to be denominated in a
foreign currency.  Accordingly, the Company has purchased forward contracts to hedge its exposure to the variability of future foreign currency cash flows through December 2002.   During the three and nine months ended September 30,
2002 and 2001, the majority of the Companys foreign currency forward contracts qualified as effective cash flow hedges.  The remainder of the foreign currency contracts did not meet the

9

criteria of SFAS 133 to qualify for effective hedge accounting.  The fair value of the foreign currency contracts is included in Other Current Assets and Accrued Liabilities on the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded income (loss) of $(0.2) and $0.4, and $0.6 and $0.1, respectively, in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) related to the change
in the fair market value of the derivatives designated as effective cash flow hedges.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded a net gain (loss) of $0.1 and $0.1, and $0 and $(0.1), respectively,
in Selling and Administration expenses related to the change in fair value of derivatives which did not qualify for hedge accounting and the change in the time value of the forward contracts, which has been excluded from the assessment of hedge
effectiveness.

Natural Gas

In order to manage the risks associated with the
changes in natural gas prices, the Company purchased futures contracts to hedge a portion of its projected natural gas purchase requirements.  These contracts expired in April 2002.  These contracts have been recorded at fair value as of
December 31, 2001 and are included in Accrued Liabilities on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.  These derivative contracts did not meet the criteria of SFAS 133 to qualify for effective hedge accounting.  During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded an unrealized gain (loss) of $0 and $0.1, and $(0.5) and $(1.9), respectively, in Selling and Administration expenses related to the change in fair value of derivatives
which did not qualify for hedge accounting.

Debt and Interest

In April 2002,
the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements under which the Company swaps the 7.94% fixed interest rate on $80.0 principal amount of unsecured senior notes for floating rate interest based on six-month LIBOR plus 3.045%.  The
counterparties to these agreements are major financial institutions.  The agreements expire in March 2007.  The Company has designated the swap agreements as fair value hedges of the risk of changes in the value of fixed rate debt due to
changes in interest rates for a portion of its fixed rate borrowings under SFAS 133.  Accordingly, the swap agreements have been recorded at their fair market value of $5.9 and are included in Other Assets on the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet, with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related debt.  No gain or loss has been recorded as the contracts meet the criteria of SFAS 133 to qualify for hedge accounting treatment with no
ineffectiveness.

In March 2002, the portion of the Companys outstanding borrowings that was denominated in British pounds and that
had been designated since its inception as a hedge of the British pound net investment in the Hickson organics division was paid-off with the expiration of the Acquisition Facility.  Cumulative foreign currency translation gain adjustments as
of September 30, 2002 of $1.0 related to this debt instrument will be recognized upon the sale of the Hickson organics Castleford, England operation.

9.  Comprehensive Income
(Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes the change in the cumulative translation adjustment and the change in the fair value of
derivative financial instruments, which qualify for hedge accounting.  Comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 was as follows:

As of September 30, 2002, $32.7 had
been charged against restructuring reserves.  As of September 30, 2002, all but less than 10 employees from the 2002 restructuring program and all employees from the 2001 and 2000 restructuring programs had been terminated.  At September
30, 2002, $9.8 of restructuring reserves was included in Accrued Liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

13.  Significant Contract

In April 2002, pursuant to the Companys Chlor-Alkali Supply Agreement with Olin Corporation (Olin), the Company notified Olin of its
intention to terminate its agreement effective December 31, 2003.

14.  Commitments and Contingencies

In connection with the acquisition of Hickson, the Company assumed certain legal obligations, including a trial court judgment of approximately $8.5 plus interest in
a lawsuit associated with a wood preservative spillage in 1994.  In 2001, the judgment was reversed on the successful appeal by the Company and remanded for a new trial on damages.  The Company expects to settle this claim and/or obtain a
favorable appeal judgment for significantly less than the original judgment.

In 2001, the Company received notification of a
potential product claim by a customer related to a discontinued product.  This claim was settled by the Company in August 2002 for $3.0, net of insurance claims of approximately $2.5.  The full settlement of $5.5 was paid by the Company
during the third quarter of 2002.  The insurance proceeds are expected to be received within the next twelve months.

The Company
does not expect any final resolution of the above cases to have a material adverse effect on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company.

ARCH CHEMICALS, INC.Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) ($ in millions, except share amounts)

Five putative class action lawsuits have been filed in various state and federal courts against several chromated copper arsenate (CCA)
manufacturers, including the Companys CCA-formulating subsidiary Arch Wood Protection, Inc., the Company, several CCA customers and various retailers regarding the marketing and use of CCA-treated wood.   Generally, the proposed
class members purport to include persons who purchased, possess or own CCA-treated wood products or properties upon which CCA-treated wood products were stored or installed.  None of the putative class actions currently alleges personal injury.
 One case has been dismissed at the plaintiffs request.  One other case has been denied class action status as a result of plaintiffs failure to timely request class certification and has been subsequently dismissed without
prejudice.  In none of the other three cases has a class been certified by the court.

These putative class action lawsuits variously
(1) allege conspiracy, breach of contract, breach of implied warranties, violation of consumer protection and/or unfair trade practices statutes, unjust enrichment, strict liability, nuisance, negligence and intentional tort, (2) seek remedies, such
as refunds of the price of product sold, the cost of removal and replacement of CCA-treated wood and the cost of soil testing and purported remediation of allegedly contaminated soil and (3) do not specify an amount of monetary damages
requested.  These lawsuits are in their early stages of discovery.

In addition, the Companys subsidiaries are named defendants
in four other CCA-related lawsuits, which are not putative class actions.

The Company and its subsidiaries deny the material allegations
of all the various CCA-related claims and will vigorously defend them.

All CCA-related cases are subject to a number of uncertainties,
including in the case of the putative class actions, whether and to what extent any will be certified as class actions.  As a result, their impact, if any, is difficult to assess.  Based on the information currently available to the
Company, however, the Company does not believe the resolution of these cases is likely to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, cash flow or results of operations.

Environmental exposures are difficult to assess for numerous reasons, including the identification of new sites, developments at sites resulting from investigatory
studies, advances in technology, changes in environmental laws and regulations and their application, the scarcity of reliable data pertaining to identified sites, the difficulty in assessing the involvement and financial capability of other
potentially responsible parties and the Companys ability to obtain contributions from other parties and the length of time over which site remediation occurs.

In 1999, Olin and the Company entered into an agreement, which specifies that the Company is only responsible for environmental liabilities at the Companys
current operating plant sites and certain offsite locations.  Olin retained the liability for all former plant sites and former waste disposal sites.

There are a variety of non-environmental legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company.  There has been no significant change in status of such
items, other than those described above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2002.

See the Companys Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2001 for additional information.

Item 2. 
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

In analyzing the results of operations for the Company and its segments, the following matters should be considered.  The Companys Treatment segment is
seasonal in nature, in particular the HTH water products business.  Historically, approximately 40%  50% of the sales in the HTH water products business occur in the second quarter of the fiscal year, as retail sales in the U.S.
residential pool market are concentrated between Memorial Day and the Fourth of July.  Accordingly, results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for an entire fiscal year. 
Segment operating income includes the equity in earnings of affiliated companies and excludes special items and certain unallocated expenses of the corporate headquarters.

The term Company as used in Items 1 and 2 of this Report means Arch Chemicals, Inc. and its subsidiaries unless the context indicates
otherwise.

*     Represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, excludes special items and unremitted earnings of 50% or less owned affiliates and includes the operating results of the Hickson organics division since the date of acquisition for the periods presented.  EBITDA is not intended to
represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles.  This measure should not be used as an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of
liquidity.  Other companies that use EBITDA may calculate it differently and their figures may not be comparable to ours.

Three Months Ended September 30,
2002 Compared to 2001

Sales increased $33.1 million due to an increase in sales in all businesses within the Treatment segment
and slightly favorable foreign currency translation.  In particular, volumes and prices in the HTH® water products business were higher as a result of the change in distribution strategy.  Sales also increased due to higher volumes in
the Microelectronic Materials segment, partially offset by a decrease in volumes in the Performance Products segment.

Gross margin
percentage was 26.9% and 24.9% for 2002 and 2001, respectively.  The increase in margin percentage was primarily a result of higher volumes and lower manufacturing costs in the Microelectronic Materials segment, lower raw material costs in the
performance urethanes business and improved pricing in the HTH water products business, partially offset by lower margins in the Other Specialty Products segment due to product mix.

Selling and administration expenses as a percentage of sales decreased to 22.0% in 2002 from 23.0% in 2001 primarily due to the higher sales.  Selling and
administration expenses increased in amount by $5.3 million primarily due to higher selling and advertising costs in the treatment segment to support the HTH® brand relaunch and the entrance into the dealer market and higher costs due to the
change in distribution strategy.   Higher legal costs in the wood protection and microelectronic materials businesses, additional expenses related to the geographic expansion of the industrial coatings business and higher employee
benefit-related expenses also contributed to the increase in administration costs.  These factors were partially offset by a $1.8 million pre-tax gain on the sales of excess land and lower selling expenses associated with the performance
products segment due to cost-reduction initiatives.

Amortization of intangibles decreased $1.7 million from the prior year, primarily due
to the application of the non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 of $1.5 million (see Note 6 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Research and development expenses decreased $0.7 million from prior year primarily due to cost reduction initiatives in the microelectronic materials
segment.

Equity in earnings of affiliated companies increased $0.8 million due to favorable operating results of the FUJIFILM Arch joint
venture due to higher sales related to stronger Asian demand and of the Planar Solutions joint venture due to higher sales of copper-based slurries.

Interest expense, net was comparable to 2001 as higher interest rates resulting from the issuance in March 2002 of unsecured senior notes were offset by lower debt
levels primarily due to the sale of accounts receivable, the sale of the Hickson organics DanChem business and lower capital spending.

The effective tax rate on income from continuing operations before special items for the third quarter was expense of 36% in 2002 compared to a benefit of 25% in
2001.  During the third quarter of 2001, the full-year effective tax rate increased from 33% to 36% due to the impact of non-tax deductible items on lower estimated earnings.

Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, in 2002 reflects the results of operations and interest expense allocated to the Hickson organics Castleford
business.  Results of operations include a $1.3 million restructuring charge for headcount reductions.  Income from discontinued operations for the third quarter of 2001 includes operating results of the Hickson organics Castleford and
DanChem businesses and interest expense allocated for the month of September 2001.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization (EBITDA) increased $7.7 million principally due to the higher operating results, partially offset by higher unremitted earnings of joint ventures.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared to 2001

Sales were comparable to the prior year.  Excluding a decrease of approximately $17 million due to the exit of certain unprofitable process chemical product
lines, sales increased approximately two percent as higher HTH water products sales and favorable foreign currency translation were offset by a decrease in volumes, primarily related to the microelectronic materials and performance products
segments.

Gross margin percentage was 28.7% for both 2002 and 2001 as higher margins in the industrial biocides and industrial coatings
businesses due to lower manufacturing costs were offset by lower margins in the other specialty products segment due to unfavorable product mix.

Selling and administration expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 21.4% in 2002 from 20.0% in 2001 and these expenses increased in amount by $10.0
million.  The increase was primarily due to higher selling and advertising costs in the treatment segment to support the HTH® brand relaunch and the entrance into the dealer market and higher costs due to the change in distribution
strategy.  Higher legal costs in the wood protection and microelectronic materials businesses, additional expenses related to the geographic expansion of the industrial coatings business, higher employee benefit-related expenses, and costs
related to the Companys accounts receivable securitization program also contributed to the increase in administration costs.  These factors were partially offset by lower selling expenses associated with the microelectronic materials and
performance products segments due to cost reduction initiatives and a $1.8 million pre-tax gain on sales of excess land.

Amortization of
intangibles decreased $4.1 million from the prior year, primarily due to the application of the non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 of $4.3 million (see Note 6 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), partially offset by the
write-off of certain intangible assets due to the cancellation of certain technology agreements of $0.4 million.

Research and development
expenses decreased $1.5 million primarily due to cost reduction initiatives in the microelectronic materials and performance products segments.

Equity in earnings of affiliated companies increased $1.5 million due to favorable operating results of the Planar Solutions joint venture due to higher sales of
copper-based slurries and FUJIFILM Arch joint venture due to higher sales related to stronger Asian demand, partially offset by lower results from the Nordeschlor joint venture.

Restructuring in 2002 includes a $6.6 million charge for headcount reductions in the microelectronics materials, treatment products and performance products segments,
and a $1.0 million charge for expenses related to the consolidation of several treatment products segment operations.  The Company anticipates future annual cost savings of $10 to $12 million related to the workforce reductions. 
Restructuring in 2001 consists of

retention
payments made to employees as a result of the Companys restructuring of the process chemicals business in 2000, partly offset by the reimbursement of certain severance costs, which were previously recorded as part of the restructuring charge
in the fourth quarter of 2000.

Interest expense, net was $12.2 million in 2002 compared to $14.3 million in 2001.  The decrease was
primarily due to lower effective interest rates and lower debt due to the sale of accounts receivable, the sale of the Hickson organics DanChem business and lower capital spending.

The effective tax rate on income from continuing operations before cumulative effect of accounting change and before special items for the nine months ended September
30, 2002 was 36%, consistent with 2001.

Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, reflects the results of operations of the Hickson
organics division and interest expense allocated to this business.  Results of operations include a $1.9 million restructuring charge for headcount reductions for approximately 40 employees.  Income from discontinued operations for 2001
includes operating results of the Hickson organics Castleford and DanChem businesses and interest expense allocated for the month of September 2001.

Loss on the sale of DanChem, net of tax, represents the after-tax loss on the sale of the Companys operations in Danville, Virginia for proceeds of
approximately $25 million.

EBITDA decreased $14.4 million principally due to lower operating results in the Hickson organics Castleford
business and due to the sale of the Hickson organics DanChem business in March 2002, lower operating results and higher unremitted earnings from joint ventures.

Full Year Outlook

The Companys
fourth quarter is traditionally the weakest due to the seasonality of its Treatment segment businesses, principally pool chemicals.  For the full-year 2002, the Company expects earnings per share from continuing operations, excluding special
items, to be in the $0.50 range.  In addition, EBITDA is expected to be in the $90 million range, while capital spending is expected to be $35 to $40 million.  See Cautionary Statement under Federal Securities Laws
below.

Segment Information

The Company has reorganized its business portfolio into four operating segments to better reflect the Companys business strategy.  The four segments are
microelectronic materials, treatment products, performance products and other specialty products.  The treatment products segment includes three reportable business units:  the HTH water products business, the personal care and industrial
biocides business and the wood protection and industrial coatings business.  Performance products includes the performance urethanes business.  Other specialty products include the hydrazine and sulfuric acid businesses.  Sales and
operating income for 2001 have been restated to reflect the new structure.

Sales increased $6.4 million or approximately 20%, as the segment continued to capitalize on a modest recovery in the semiconductor industry, which increased
demand for ancillaries, polyimides and photoresist products, partially offset by pricing pressure in ancillary products.  Operating results increased significantly as a result of the higher sales, favorable fixed cost absorption and lower
manufacturing and development costs resulting from cost-reduction initiatives.  In addition, operating results of the Companys FUJIFILM Arch and Planar Solutions joint ventures increased due to significantly higher sales in both joint
ventures.  Higher legal costs, principally from a now settled product claim, were partially offset by the benefit of an unrelated insurance recovery.  In addition, operating results included the benefit of the non-amortization of goodwill
and other intangible assets of $0.4 million.

Sales decreased $22.3 million or approximately 17%.  Of the sales decrease, approximately $17 million was related to the exit of certain
unprofitable process chemical product lines announced in the fourth quarter of 2000.  Excluding this effect, sales were approximately 5% lower, principally due to the weakness of the semiconductor industry in the earlier part of the year, which
resulted in lower pricing and adversely affected demand for the ancillaries and thin film product lines.  These were partially offset by higher volumes of formulated products and polyimides.  The operating loss increase resulted primarily
from the lower sales and higher legal costs.  These factors were partially offset by favorable operating results of the FUJIFILM Arch and Planar Solutions joint ventures due to significantly higher joint venture sales, lower manufacturing,
selling and development costs resulting from cost-reduction initiatives and the benefit of an unrelated insurance recovery.  In addition, operating results benefited from the non-amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets of $1.4
million, partially offset by the write-off of certain intangible assets due to the cancellation of certain technology agreements of $0.4 million.

Three Months Ended September 30,
2002 Compared to 2001

Sales increased approximately 30% and operating income increased significantly.  The increase
in sales is principally due to higher volumes and pricing in the HTH water products business as a result of changing to a direct-to-retail distribution strategy as well as favorable foreign currency translation of approximately $3 million.  The
increase in operating income is primarily a result of the higher sales, offset in part by higher legal costs in the wood protection business.  In addition, 2002 operating results included the benefit of the non-amortization of

goodwill
and other intangible assets of $1.0 million and the pre-tax gain on sale of excess land of $1.5 million. 2001 operating results included a benefit of a $1.9 million LIFO inventory decrement.

HTH Water Products

Sales
increased $24.2 million or approximately 64% and operating loss decreased $3.4 million.  The increase in sales was principally due to higher volumes of branded calcium hypochlorite (HTH® and J3®) and trichlor (Pace®), pool
maintenance products and accessories and higher branded calcium hypochlorite and trichlor pricing.  The higher volumes and pricing were primarily the result of a change in distribution strategy to a direct-to-retail approach, which shifted some
traditional second quarter sales into the third quarter and resulted in the elimination of the distributor margin.  Foreign sales also increased due to higher volumes as a result of warm weather in Europe and Canada.  The improvement in
operating results was primarily due to the higher sales, partly offset by higher selling and advertising costs to support the HTH® brand relaunch and the entrance into the dealer market.  In addition, 2002 operating costs were higher
because of increased distribution and warehousing expenses and the absence of a $1.5 million benefit of a LIFO inventory decrement.

Personal Care and Industrial Biocides

Sales were approximately 14% higher than 2001 due to higher biocides sales to the marine antifouling paint, antidandruff and building products markets,
partially offset by lower volumes to the metalworking fluid market.  Antifouling paint sales doubled as a result of increased demand due to the proposed ban on tributyl tins in marine paint.  Operating income increased approximately 59%
due to the higher sales and favorable product mix.  In addition, operating results benefited from the non-amortization of goodwill of $0.4 million and the pre-tax gain on the sale of excess land of $0.8 million.

Wood Protection & Industrial Coatings

Sales were approximately 14% higher than the prior year due to favorable foreign currency translation (approximately $3 million), stronger European economic
conditions and higher volumes of CCA-alternative products (Wolmanized® Natural Select (Wolman® E) and Tanalith® E preservatives).  Operating income was approximately 58% higher than the prior year due to the higher sales,
partly offset by higher administration costs as a result of the geographic expansion of the coatings business and higher legal defense expenses associated with CCA product lawsuits.  In addition, operating results benefited from the
non-amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets of $0.5 million and the pre-tax gain on the sale of excess land of $0.7 million.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared to 2001

Sales increased approximately 10% and operating income increased approximately 23%.  The increase in sales is due primarily to higher pricing in the HTH
water products business due to the elimination of the distributor margin as a result of the change in distribution strategy and favorable foreign currency translation of approximately $5 million.  Operating income increased principally due to
higher sales in the HTH water products, partially offset by the increased costs of the direct-to-retail distribution and higher legal costs in the wood protection business.  In addition, 2002 operating results included the benefit of the
non-amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets of $2.7 million and the pre-tax gain on sale of excess land of $1.5 million. 2001 operating results included a benefit of a $2.3 million LIFO inventory decrement.

HTH Water Products

Sales
increased $33.9 million or approximately 18% and operating income increased approximately 32%.  The increase in sales was principally due to higher chemical sales pricing due to the change in distribution to a direct-to-retail method.  In
addition, higher branded calcium hypochlorite (J3®) and trichlor (Pace®), pool maintenance products and accessories volumes were offset by lower branded (HTH®) calcium hypochlorite volumes.  The higher pool maintenance products
and accessories volumes were due to new marketing initiatives

and the
lower branded calcium hypochlorite volumes were due to a shift in customer demand.  Foreign sales also increased due to higher volumes as a result of warm weather in Europe and Canada.  Operating income increased primarily due to the
higher sales, partially offset by higher selling and advertising costs to support the HTH® brand relaunch and the entrance into the dealer market.  In addition, operating costs were higher because of increased distribution and warehousing
expenses due to the change in distribution strategy and the absence of a $1.8 million benefit of a LIFO inventory decrement.

Personal Care and Industrial Biocides

Sales were comparable to 2001 as higher biocides sales to the marine antifouling paint market were offset by lower personal care sales and the discontinuance
of a custom-chemical product line.  Operating income was approximately 20% higher than 2001 as a result of higher gross margins due to favorable product mix and lower manufacturing costs from cost-reduction initiatives.  In addition,
operating results benefited from the non-amortization of goodwill of $1.2 million and the pre-tax gain on the sale of excess land of $0.8 million.

Wood Protection & Industrial Coatings

Sales were approximately six percent higher than the prior year due to favorable foreign currency translation (approximately $5 million), stronger European
economic conditions resulting in higher industrial coatings sales and higher volumes of CCA-alternative products (Wolmanized® Natural Select (Wolman® E) and Tanalith® E preservatives).  Operating income was approximately
19% higher than the prior year due to the higher sales, partially offset by higher selling and administration and research and development expenses to support various industrial coatings growth initiatives and higher legal defense expenses
associated with CCA product lawsuits.  In addition, operating results benefited from the non-amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets of $1.4 million and the pre-tax gain on sale of excess land of $0.7 million.

Compared to 2001

Sales decreased $6.9 million or approximately 19% principally due to reduced propylene glycol volumes and
lower Latin American sales, a result of poor economic conditions and political instability in Venezuela.  Operating results were $1.4 million higher as a result of lower raw material costs due to the recognition of $1.9 million of volume
rebates which were retroactive to the beginning of the year, and to a lesser extent, lower selling and administration costs due to cost-reduction initiatives implemented in 2001 and 2002.  The improvements were partially offset by the lower
sales, increased provision for bad debt expense in Latin America and the absence of a $0.9 million benefit of a LIFO inventory decrement.

2002 Compared to 2001

Sales decreased $2.2 million or approximately 11% and operating income decreased
significantly.

Hydrazine sales decreased by approximately 12% due to lower propellant sales as a result
of the timing of a government production campaign and lower hydrate volumes and prices due to lower demand.  Operating income decreased from prior year primarily due to the lower sales and an unfavorable product mix.

Sulfuric acid sales decreased approximately eight percent as a result of lower pricing, principally due to an unfavorable product mix.  Operating
income was approximately 63% lower than the prior year due to the lower sales and unfavorable fixed cost absorption due to reduced operating rates.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared to 2001

Sales decreased $3.1 million or approximately five percent and operating income decreased approximately 38%.

Hydrazine sales were comparable to prior year as higher hydrate volumes were offset by lower hydrate prices.  Operating income was comparable to 2001 as
lower pricing and higher unabsorbed fixed costs offset the absence of unrealized losses related to natural gas futures contracts in 2001 of $1.6 million.

Sulfuric acid sales decreased approximately 11% as a result of lower pricing due to an unfavorable product mix compared to the prior year.  Operating
income was approximately 63% lower than prior year due to the lower sales.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared to 2001

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002,
the $43.6 million increase in cash flow provided by net operating activities from continuing operations was primarily attributable to the sale of accounts receivable and lower restructuring payments, partly offset by lower cash earnings and the
slight increase in working capital in 2002 compared to a significant decrease in working capital in 2001.  The Company significantly reduced its working capital in 2001 as a result of its focus on reducing its investment in working capital and
as a result of its exit from the straits business.

Cash used by assets held for sale was $12.3 million in 2002 compared to $2.7
million in 2001 primarily due to lower operating results in the Hickson organics Castleford business and the absence of cash generated by the Hickson organics DanChem business which was sold in March 2002, funding of restructuring initiatives and
higher working capital due to the timing of certain contract manufacturing agreements.

Capital expenditures for the first nine months of
2002 were $6.7 million lower than 2001 as higher propellant-related expenditures in the hydrazine business were offset by lower discretionary expenditures in the microelectronic materials and performance products segments.  Capital expenditures
for 2002 are expected to be  $35 to $40 million.

In September 2002, the Company sold excess land in China, Ireland and Arizona for
cash proceeds of approximately $2.3 million and recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $1.8 million.

In March 2002, the Company
completed the sale of its DanChem operations in Danville, Virginia for approximately $25 million.  Proceeds from the sale of these assets have been used to pay down debt.

In September 2001, the Company acquired Butler Mabbutt & Wrighton and the International Division of Humbrol Limited for an aggregate of approximately $1 million
in cash.

In March 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of the assets of Walker Brothers, a division of Consolidated Coatings, for
approximately $2 million in cash.

Cash used by financing activities in the first nine months of 2002 as compared to 2001 was higher due
to the repayment of debt from the proceeds of the sale of accounts receivable and the sale of the Companys operations in Danville, Virginia, partially offset by the lower cash from operations excluding the sale of accounts receivable.

On March 8, 2002, June 5, 2002 and September 4, 2002, the Company paid quarterly dividends of $0.20 on each share of common stock. 
Total dividends paid to shareholders were $13.4 million during the first nine months of 2002.

On October 28, 1999, the
Companys Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program whereby the Company is authorized to buy back up to 1.2 million shares of its common stock, representing approximately 5% of outstanding shares.  Through December 31, 2000,
the Company had repurchased approximately 893,000 shares under this program at a cost of approximately $16 million.  The program was suspended in 2000 pending the completion of the Hickson acquisition, including the subsequent sale of the
organics business.

At September 30, 2002, the Company had two credit facility agreements. These included an unsecured $125 million
revolving five-year credit facility (Five-year Facility), which expires in January 2004, and an unsecured $87.5 million 364-day facility (364-day Facility), which had expired in January 2002 and was subsequently renewed (see
below).  The Companys $225 million revolving credit facility (Acquisition Facility), which the Company used to finance the Hickson acquisition and refinance a portion of the assumed Hickson debt (collectively the Credit
Facilities), expired in March 2002.  As of September 30, 2002, facility fees are payable on the Credit Facilities and range from 0.15% to 0.5%. The Company may select various floating rate borrowing options, including, but not limited to,
LIBOR plus 0.425% to 1.55%. At September 30, 2002, the Company had approximately $211 million of available borrowings under the Credit Facilities.

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued

In April 2002, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements under which the Company swaps the 7.94% fixed interest rate on $80.0 million principal amount of
its unsecured senior notes for floating rate interest based on six-month LIBOR plus 3.045%.  The counterparties to these agreements are major financial institutions.  The agreements expire in March 2007.  The Company has designated
the swap agreements as fair value hedges of the risk of changes in its value of fixed rate debt due to changes in interest rates for a portion of its fixed rate borrowings under SFAS 133.  Accordingly, the swap agreements have been recorded at
their fair market value of $5.9 million and are included in Other Assets on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related debt.  No gain or loss has been recorded as
the contracts meet the criteria of SFAS 133 to qualify for hedge accounting treatment with no ineffectiveness.

In March 2002, the Company
completed arrangements to sell certain accounts receivable through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Arch Chemicals Receivables Corp., a special-purpose corporation. Arch Chemicals Receivables Corp. entered into a trade accounts receivable securitization
agreement with an independent financial institution whereby it can sell, on an ongoing basis, participation interests in accounts receivable for a maximum purchase price of up to $80.0 million.  As of September 30, 2002, the Company had
received proceeds of $54.7 million from the sale of participation interests in accounts receivable under this program.  The amount of participation interests sold under this arrangement is subject to change based on the level of eligible
receivables.  The accounts receivable sold are reflected as a sale of accounts receivable in accordance with SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.  The
accounts receivable securitization program provides another source of funding for the Company and is expected to lower overall funding costs.

In March 2002, the Company issued $211.0 million of unsecured senior notes to certain institutional investors in two series. The Series A notes of $149.0 million are
due in March 2007 and the Series B notes of $62.0 million are due in March 2009 and bear fixed interest rates of 7.94% and 8.24%, respectively, subject to certain leverage ratio requirements. The notes contain quarterly leverage ratio covenants of
4.5 through December 31, 2002 and 3.5 thereafter and fixed coverage ratio covenants of 2.0 through December 31, 2002 and 2.25 thereafter, and restrict the payment of dividends and repurchases of stock in excess of $65 million plus 50% of cumulative
net income under certain circumstances. In addition, the notes contain a debt to total capitalization ratio requirement not to exceed 55%. Proceeds from the issuance of these notes have been used to pay down debt, including the Acquisition Facility.

In January 2002, the Company renewed its existing 364-day Facility in the amount of $87.5 million, which now expires in January 2003 and
amended certain prospective financial covenants of this facility and the Five-year Facility to reflect the seasonality of its portfolio. The quarterly leverage ratio (debt/EBITDA) was increased to 4.5 for the first quarter of 2002, to 4.0 for the
second quarter of 2002, to 3.75 for the third quarter and to 3.5 as of December 31, 2002. The restriction on the payment of dividends and repurchase of shares was also amended to limit payments to $40 million plus 50% of cumulative net income under
certain circumstances beginning December 31, 2001.

At September 30, 2002, the Company had $9.1 million of outstanding letters of credit
and $4.4 million of letters of guarantee, including $3.6 million of its joint venture Planar Solutions borrowings. The Company has agreed to guarantee up to $8.5 million of Planar borrowings.

In 2001, the Company received notification of a potential product claim by a customer related to a discontinued product.  This claim was settled by the Company
in August 2002 for a total of $5.5 million, exclusive of insurance claims of approximately $2.5 million.  The full settlement of $5.5 million was paid by the Company during the third quarter of 2002.  The insurance proceeds are expected to
be received within the next twelve months.

The Company believes that the Credit Facilities, accounts receivable securitization
program and cash provided by operations are adequate to satisfy its liquidity needs for the near future. However, if Company earnings were to fall significantly below current expectations, a risk exists that the Company would not meet its quarterly
leverage, interest coverage, fixed charge coverage or debt to total capitalization ratio covenants which could trigger a default condition under its debt agreements.

The Company is pursuing the sale of the Hickson organics Castleford, England operation.  Proceeds from the sale are expected to be used to repay debt.

On October 25, 2002, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.20 on each share of the Companys common stock.  The dividend is payable on December 6,
2002, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 8, 2002.

New Accounting Standards

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations
(SFAS 143).  SFAS 143 requires recording the fair market value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets is
incurred.  SFAS 143 also requires recording the contra asset to the initial obligation as an increase to the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset and to depreciate that cost over the life of the asset.  The liability is then
increased at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time and changes in the initial fair value measurement.  The Company is required to adopt the provisions of SFAS 143 effective January 1, 2003 and has not yet determined the extent
of its impact, if any.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

At September 30, 2002, the Company was exposed to interest rate risk on approximately 50% of its outstanding borrowings including funding under its accounts
receivable securitization program which are subject to floating rates.  Based on the Companys expected 2002 borrowing levels, an increase in interest rates of 100 basis points would decrease the Companys results of operations and
cash flows by approximately $1 million.

Foreign Currency Risk

At September 30,
2002, the Company had forward contracts to sell foreign currencies with notional amounts of $1.1 million and forward contracts to buy foreign currencies with notional amounts of $4.6 million.  The fair value of these forward contracts is
included in Other Current Assets and Accrued Liabilities, respectively.

Holding other variables constant, if there were a 10 percent
change in foreign currency exchange rates, the net effect on the Companys annual cash flows would be an increase (decrease) of between $1 million to $2 million related to the unhedged portion, as any increase (decrease) in cash flows resulting
from the Companys hedge forward contracts would be offset by an equal (decrease) increase in cash flows on the underlying transaction being hedged.  The application of SFAS 133 may cause increased volatility in the Companys results
of operations for interim periods in the future, if the Company changes its policies, or if some of the derivative instruments do not meet the requirements for hedge accounting.

Commodity Price
Risk

The Company is exposed to commodity price risk related to the price volatility of natural gas utilized at certain manufacturing
sites.  Depending on market conditions, the Company may purchase derivative commodity instruments to minimize the risk of price fluctuations.  At September 30, 2002, the Company had no outstanding forward contracts to purchase natural gas.

See the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 for additional information on the above items.

Item 4. 
Controls and Procedures

As of a date (Evaluation Date) within 90 days prior to the date of this
report, the Company conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys chief executive officer and chief financial officer, pursuant to Rule 13a-15 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (Exchange Act) of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Companys chief executive officer and chief financial officer
concluded that as of the Evaluation Date such disclosure controls and procedures were reasonably designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company also has investments in certain unconsolidated entities.  As the Company does not control or
manage these entities, its disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are necessarily more limited than those it maintains with respect to its consolidated subsidiaries.

Since the Evaluation Date, there have not been any significant changes in the internal controls of the Company, or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls.
