SECTION 1 - CONFLICT MINERALS DISCLOSURE

Item 1.01    Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conflict Minerals Disclosure - Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

(a)    NOVA Chemicals Corporation (“NOVA Chemicals”)is a plastics and chemical company whose products are used in a wide variety of applications, including food and electronics packaging, industrial materials, appliances and a variety of consumer goods.

The Securities and Exchange Commission defines conflict minerals as columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin, and tungsten (“Conflict Minerals”). NOVA Chemicals has determined that certain grades of its expandable polystyrene resins (the “EPS Grades”) contain a minor amount of a tin compound. This tin compound is necessary to produce the EPS Grades but is not necessary for the functionality of the EPS Grades. Other than the above noted tin compound, NOVA Chemicals does not believe any of its other products manufactured (or contracted by NOVA Chemicals to be manufactured) and sold in 2013 contained any Conflict Minerals.

(b)    From its purchasing records, NOVA Chemicals determined that the tin compound noted above was purchased from a single supplier. For calendar year 2013, NOVA Chemicals conducted in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry that was reasonably designed to determine whether the tin compound used in the EPS Grades originated in the Democratic Republic of Congo or an adjoining country (“Covered Country”) or is from recycled or scrap sources. This inquiry included communications with NOVA Chemicals’ sole supplier of the tin compound, which resulted in the supplier’s issuance to NOVA Chemicals of a certification that, based on everything the supplier was able to reasonably determine, none of its tin supplies come from a Covered Country. Moreover the supplier confirmed that it has implemented sourcing policies designed to ensure that its tin-based products are “conflict free”.

Based on the reasonable country of origin inquiry described above, NOVA Chemicals has no reason to believe that its necessary Conflict Minerals may have originated in a Covered Country. Consequently, NOVA Chemicals is not including a conflict minerals report as part of this submission.

This Specialized Disclosure Form is being posted to the publicly available Internet site (http://www.novachem.com/ExWeb Documents/responsible-care/ConflictMineralsDisclousure.pdf) upon the filing of this Form SD.
