·

·  
Harold C. Simmons by virtue of his direct and indirect ownership of Class A Shares and his positions with Contran and certain of the other entities (as described in this Statement).

By signing this Statement, each Reporting Person agrees that this Statement is filed on its or his behalf.

CGI, TFMC, NL, Harold C. Simmons and his spouse, Annette C. Simmons, are direct holders of 49.4%, 9.2%, 7.3%, 1.3% and 0.4%, respectively, of the 5,237,385 Class A Shares outstanding as of September 14, 2007 according to information the Company provided (the “Outstanding Class A Shares”).

CGI also directly holds 100%, or 10,000,000 shares, of the Company’s class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class B Shares” and collectively with the Class A Shares shall be referred to as the “Shares”).  The description of the relative rights of the Shares as described in this Statement is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Company’s restated certificate of incorporation that is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to Amendment No. 1 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 4, 1998 (Reg. No. 333-42643), which is incorporated herein by reference.  As a result of its ownership of 49.4% of the Class A Shares and 100% of the Class B Shares, CGI directly holds approximately 82.6% of the combined voting power (97.5% of the voting power for the election of directors) of all classes of voting stock of the Company.  CGI may be deemed to control the Company.

NL and TFMC are the direct holders of approximately 82.4%, and 17.6%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of CGI common stock and together may be deemed to control CGI.  Valhi and TFMC are the direct holders of approximately 83.1% and 0.5%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of NL common stock and together may be deemed to control NL.  TIMET is the direct holder of 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of TFMC and may be deemed to control TFMC.

NL and NL EMS directly own 3,522,967 shares and 1,186,200 shares, respectively, of Valhi common stock.  Pursuant to Delaware law, Valhi treats the shares of Valhi common stock that NL and NL EMS own as treasury stock for voting purposes and for the purposes of this Statement such shares are not deemed outstanding.

Mr. Harold C. Simmons is chairman of the board and chief executive officer of NL and chairman of the board of CGI, TIMET, Valhi, VHC, VGI, National, NOA, Dixie Holding, Dixie Rice, Southwest and Contran.

By virtue of the holding of the offices, the stock ownership and his service as trustee, all as described above, (a) Mr. Simmons may be deemed to control the entities described above and (b) Mr. Simmons and certain of such entities may be deemed to possess indirect beneficial ownership of the Shares that are directly held by CGI, TFMC and NL.  However, Mr. Simmons disclaims such beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any of such entities.
