Item 8.01 Other Items.
On August 29, 2008, Registrant reported that the Mexican Court of Fiscal & Administrative Justice unanimously overturned resolutions issued in 2004 by the Mexican National Waters Commission, or CNA, to Registrant’s Mexican affiliate, Innophos Fosfatados, seeking to impose higher water rates on fresh water consumed at the company’s Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, Mexico plant from 1998 through 2002. As previously reported, CNA had 15 business days in which to file an appeal of that decision. On September 23, 2008, the Registrant was informed by Mexican counsel that CNA timely filed an appeal to an intermediate Mexican appeals court.
Innophos acquired its Mexican operations in August 2004 from affiliates of Rhodia, S.A. Subsequently, Innophos obtained a judgment in the New York State courts confirming its right to full indemnity from Rhodia for CNA water resolution-related liabilities arising prior to the acquisition. The CNA fresh water resolutions, if sustained, could amount to a potential liability of up to $33 million for the period 1998 through 2002, and would be fully indemnified by Rhodia.
