Analysis of the Complaint and

Proposed Consent Order To Aid Public

Comment

I. Introduction

The Federal Trade Commission

(‘‘Commission’’) has accepted for public

comment a Decision and Order

(‘‘Order’’), pursuant to an Agreement

Containing Consent Orders (‘‘Consent

Agreement’’), against The Dow

Chemical Company (‘‘Dow’’) and Union

Carbide Corporation (‘‘Carbide’’)

(collectively ‘‘Respondents’’). The Order

is intended to resolve anticompetitive

effects stemming from the proposed

merger of Dow and Carbide (the

‘‘Merger’’). As described below, the

Order seeks to remedy anticompetitive

effects of the merger in polyethylene,

ethyleneamines, ethanolamines and

methyldiethanolamine (‘‘MDEA’’). The

Order remedies those anticompetitive

effects by requiring Respondents to

divest and license certain intellectual

property and other assets relating to

polyethylene to BP Amoco plc (‘‘BP’’);

to divest Dow’s worldwide businesses

in ethyleneamines to Huntsman

International LLC (‘‘Huntsman’’); and to

divest Dow’s worldwide ethanolamines
