Complaint against Dead Sea Bromine Company Ltd.

 

 



 

 

 

Item 1

 

Complaint against Dead Sea Bromine Company Ltd.

 

The Company hereby reports that on Friday, March 31, 2017, Dead Sea Bromine Company Ltd. (“DSB”) and Great Lakes Chemical Corporation (“GLCC”), a subsidiary of Chemtura Corporation, submitted a Joint Pre-Trial Statement to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, following a complaint filed by GLCC against DSB, alleging breach of a 2003 agreement between the parties pertaining to the purchase and sale of bromine and bromine derivatives (the "Agreement").

 

The complaint filed by GLCC was filed under seal as business confidential information such that it is not available to the public, and did not allege a damage amount.

 

In the Joint Pre-Trial Statement jointly filed with the Court GLCC is claiming damages to be in excess of $35 million and for a declaratory judgment to enforce the Agreement. In the same document, DSB denies such damages and denies any obligation for such damages.

 

To the Company's estimate, this complaint is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
