Item 2.04. Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.

On October 31, 2014, Chemtura Corporation (the “Company”) issued a conditional notice of redemption to holders of its outstanding 7.875% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “2018 Notes”) that the Company will redeem all of its outstanding 2018 Notes on December 1, 2014 (the “Redemption Date”). The redemption price for the 2018 Notes will be 103.938% of the principal amount of the 2018 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Price”), in accordance with the provisions of the indenture governing the 2018 Notes. The notice of redemption was conditioned upon (i) the completion of the sale of the Company’s agrochemicals business, Chemtura AgroSolutions, to Platform Specialty Products Corporation (the “AgroSolutions Sale”) and (ii) the receipt of net proceeds from the AgroSolutions Sale in an amount at least equal to the aggregate Redemption Price of the 2018 Notes, referred to collectively as the “Chemtura AgroSolutions Sale Condition.” The Company reserves the right to waive any or all components of the Chemtura AgroSolutions Sale Condition in its sole discretion. In the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may not occur or the notice of the redemption may be rescinded or be amended to (i) delay the Redemption Date in the event that the Chemtura AgroSolutions Sale Condition shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed, and (ii) reduce the aggregate principal amount of 2018 Notes to be redeemed in the event that the net proceeds from the AgroSolutions Sale are insufficient to redeem all outstanding 2018 Notes.
