     “We achieved excellent results in the third quarter as most of our segments performed very well,” said LyondellBasell Chief Executive Officer Jim Gallogly. “Globally, our Olefins & Polyolefins results were approximately equal to the strong results of the second quarter. As a result, we again generated significant cash during the quarter and further improved our liquidity. In early October, we completed our listing on the New York Stock Exchange, another milestone in the creation of the new LyondellBasell.”
OUTLOOK
     Commenting on the near-term outlook, Gallogly said, “Industry conditions have held up reasonably well during October. However, we expect to see the typical seasonal impacts in the Refining and Oxyfuels area as well as end-of-year holiday reduced sales to some customers. With these anticipated impacts, our outlook for the quarter is somewhat tempered compared to the strong second and third quarters.”

(b)   Represents the combined second quarter 2010 predecessor (April 1, 2010 — April 30, 2010) and successor (May 1, 2010 — June 30, 2010) periods. The predecessor and successor periods are not necessarily comparable in all respects. See Table 8 and endnote (1) of this release.
 
(c)   Represents the combined predecessor (Jan. 1, 2010 — April 30, 2010) and successor (May 1, 2010 — Sept. 30, 2010) periods for the first nine months of 2010. The predecessor and successor periods are not necessarily comparable in all respects. See Table 8 and endnote (1) of this release..
     Three months ended Sept. 30, 2010 versus three months ended June 30, 2010 — Excluding non-cash LCM inventory charges of $171 million and $26 million in the second quarter and third quarters 2010, respectively, underlying EBITDA declined by $67 million versus the second quarter 2010, as an average ethylene sales price decrease of approximately 10 cents per pound was partially offset by an approximately 2 cent per pound decline in the company’s average cost-of-ethylene-production metric (COE). Ethylene sales volume increased by approximately 130 million pounds compared to the second quarter 2010, as the scheduled maintenance turnaround at the Morris, Ill. facility was completed during the second quarter. Polyethylene (PE) results improved by approximately $75 million versus second quarter 2010 as PE benefitted from the lower ethylene price and additional production at Morris. Polypropylene results for the third quarter improved approximately $10 million. Total polyolefins sales volumes increased approximately 275 million pounds (14 percent) versus the second quarter with polyethylene sales accounting for the majority of the increase.
     Three months ended Sept. 30, 2010 versus three months ended Sept. 30, 2009 — Excluding a non-cash third-quarter 2010 LCM inventory charge of $26 million, O&P — Americas results improved significantly versus the third quarter 2009 as the average ethylene sales price increased approximately 7 cents per pound while the company’s COE remained relatively unchanged. Segment polyethylene results improved by approximately $10 million compared to third quarter 2009 based on an improved sales mix favoring domestic sales. Polypropylene results for the third quarter 2010 increased approximately $15 million versus third quarter 2009. Total polyolefins sales volumes increased approximately 100 million pounds (4 percent) versus the third quarter 2009. Increased polypropylene sales accounted for the majority of the sales volume increase.
Olefins & Polyolefins — Europe, Asia, International (O&P-EAI) — The primary products of this segment include ethylene, ethylene co-products (propylene and butadiene), polyethylene, polypropylene, global polypropylene compounds, Catalloy process resins and Polybutene-1 resins.

(b)   Represents the combined second quarter 2010 predecessor (April 1, 2010 — April 30, 2010) and successor (May 1, 2010 — June 30, 2010) periods. The predecessor and successor periods are not necessarily comparable in all respects. See Table 8 and endnote (1) of this release.
 
(c)   Represents the combined predecessor (Jan. 1, 2010 — April 30, 2010) and successor (May 1, 2010 — Sept. 30, 2010) periods for the first nine months of 2010. The predecessor and successor periods are not necessarily comparable in all respects. See Table 8 and endnote (1) of this release.
     Three months ended Sept. 30, 2010 versus three months ended June 30, 2010 — Excluding non-cash LCM inventory charges of $5 million in each of the second and third quarters, EBITDA increased by $37 million versus the second quarter 2010. Higher olefins margins due to tight market conditions, caused in part by competitor outages and increased sales volumes due to the completion of the Berre olefins and polyolefins plant maintenance turnarounds during the second quarter, drove results higher. Higher polyolefins sales volumes of approximately 190 million pounds also contributed to the improved third-quarter results. Dividends received from joint ventures decreased by approximately $30 million as compared to the second quarter 2010.
     Three months ended Sept. 30, 2010 versus three months ended Sept. 30, 2009 — Excluding a non-cash LCM inventory charge of $5 million in the third quarter 2010, EBITDA increased $108 million versus the third quarter 2009. Improved olefins and polyolefins margins accounted for the majority of the improved performance. Volume growth in polypropylene and polypropylene compounding, due in large part to increased demand from the automotive sector, also contributed to the improvement.
Intermediates & Derivatives (I&D) — The primary products of this segment include propylene oxide (PO) and its co-products (styrene monomer, tertiary butyl alcohol, isobutylene and tertiary butyl hydroperoxide) and derivatives (propylene glycol, propylene glycol ethers and butanediol); acetyls, ethylene oxide and its derivatives, and flavors and fragrances chemicals.

million versus the second quarter 2010. PO and PO derivatives results improved by approximately $50 million due to increased volumes and the benefit of price increases implemented in the second quarter that were realized in the third quarter. Intermediates results declined versus the second quarter 2010 due in part to operating problems within the ethylene oxide business, which have since been resolved.
     Three months ended Sept. 30, 2010 versus three months ended Sept. 30, 2009 — I&D results improved significantly in the third quarter 2010 compared to the third quarter 2009. PO and PO derivatives results improved by approximately $120 million due to higher sales volumes of PO derivatives and improved margins of most products. Intermediates results declined by approximately $15 million versus third quarter 2009 as a result of the ethylene oxide operating problems and lower styrene results.
Refining & Oxyfuels (R&O) — The primary products of this segment include gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, jet fuel, petrochemical raw materials, methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) and ethyl tertiary butyl ether (ETBE).

     Three months ended Sept. 30, 2010 versus three months ended June 30, 2010 — Excluding non-cash LCM inventory charges of $132 million and $1 million in the second-quarter and third-quarter 2010, respectively, EBITDA declined $88 million in the third quarter versus the second quarter 2010. Houston refinery performance declined by approximately $50 million. Crude volumes at the Houston refinery increased approximately 72,000 barrels per day compared to the second-quarter volumes which were low as a result of the May 17 crude unit fire. However, the average industry benchmark margin decreased approximately $4 per barrel during the quarter as gasoline and distillate spreads and the heavy crude differential all contracted. At the Berre refinery, industry benchmark margins decreased by approximately $1 per barrel, while volumes remained relatively unchanged. Oxyfuels results were relatively unchanged.
     Three months ended Sept. 30, 2010 versus three months ended Sept. 30, 2009 — Excluding a non-cash 2010 LCM inventory charge of $1 million in the third quarter 2010, segment EBITDA improved

$34 million versus the third quarter 2009. At the Houston refinery, an increase in the industry benchmark margin of approximately $5 per barrel was the primary contributor to the improved results. Berre refinery results were relatively unchanged. Oxyfuels results declined from a very strong third quarter 2009 due to lower margins.
Technology Segment — The principal products of the Technology segment include polyolefin catalysts and production process technology licenses and related services.

(1) NON-GAAP MEASURES

     This release makes reference to certain “non-GAAP” financial measures as defined in Regulation G of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, but believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying business trends and performance of the company’s ongoing operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
As a result of the company’s emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy and the application of fresh-start accounting, the company reported its second quarter financial information for a predecessor period ending on April 30, 2010, the date of emergence from bankruptcy, and a successor period after such date in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of this press release, we have presented “combined” results of operations for the second quarter 2010 and for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2010. The combined results for the three months ended June 30, 2010 are the sum of (i) the predecessor period of April 1, 2010 through April 30, 2010 and (ii) the successor period of May 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010. For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2010, the combined results are the sum of (i) the first four months of 2010, representing the predecessor and (ii) the five months ended September 30, 2010, representing the successor period. The results of operations on the combined basis are non-GAAP because they combine two separate reporting entities. We have included the combined financial information because we believe it gives investors a better understanding of the year-over-year and sequential quarter comparisons. The primary impacts of both the Company’s reorganization under Chapter 11 and the application of fresh-start accounting include (i) an increase in the value of inventory at April 30, 2010 required as a result of our emergence from Chapter 11 and the application of fresh-start accounting and a significant decrease from those values at June 30, 2010, as the market values of crude oil significantly decreased between those dates; (ii) lower depreciation and amortization expense in periods after April 30, 2010 as a result of the revaluation of assets in connection with fresh-start accounting; and (iii) lower interest expense in periods after April 30, 2010 as a result of the discharge of $9 billion of debt and the conversion of $9 billion of debt into equity as a result of the reorganization pursuant to Chapter 11. The significant decrease in inventory values at June 30, 2010 was a result of the application of U.S. GAAP; however, the amount of the decrease was exacerbated by the previous significant increase in values at April 30, 2010, when market values of crude oil had risen to annual highs. Inventory charges since the second quarter are required by U.S. GAAP and a result of changes in market values of crude oil.
     We also include certain other non-GAAP measures, such as EBITDAR and EBITDA. While we believe that EBITDAR and EBITDA are measures commonly used by investors, EBITDAR and EBITDA,

as presented herein, may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported by other companies due to differences in the way the measure is calculated. For purposes of this release, EBITDAR means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and restructuring costs, as adjusted for certain unusual and non-recurring items such as impairment charges, reorganization items, the effect of mark-to-market accounting on our warrants and current cost inventory adjustments. EBITDA means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted for the same items, to the extent applicable in the successor periods. EBITDAR and EBITDA both also include dividends from joint ventures. EBITDAR and EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to profit or operating profit for any period as an indicator of our performance, or as alternatives to operating cash flows as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, this release contains EBITDA(R), which represents a combined predecessor and successor periods when the predecessor period is adjusted for restructuring costs, therefore representing EBITDAR, and the successor period is not adjusted, because there were no restructuring costs, or any such costs are included in net income.
     Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the financial tables at the end of this release.
     Prior to emergence from Chapter 11, we utilized a combination of First-In, First-Out and Last-In, First-Out inventory methods for financial reporting. For purposes of evaluating segment results, management reviewed operating results using current cost, which approximates LIFO. As supplementary information, and for our segment reporting, we provide EBITDAR information on a current cost basis for periods prior to our emergence from Chapter 11. Since emergence from Chapter 11, we have utilized the LIFO inventory methodology and EBITDA information for periods after our emergence is on a LIFO basis. The combined financial results and measures that are disclosed in this press release, including EBITDAR and EBITDA, therefore use both current cost and LIFO methodologies.
     This release contains time sensitive information that is accurate only as of the time hereof. Information contained in this release is unaudited and subject to change. LyondellBasell undertakes no obligation to update the information presented herein except to the extent required by law.
