| Acquired July 2011 |
| Trevira GmbH Germany was acquired under a joint venture with Sinterama, an Italian company with experience in specialist
fibers and a global footprint. IVL holds 75% of the shareholding in Trevira. The company was originally the fiber business of Hoechst, one of Germany’s foremost chemical companies and became an important European manufacturer of high quality branded polyester fibers and filament yarns for the home textiles, apparel and automotive industries, the hygiene sector and technical applications. Its head office is in Bobingen near Augsburg. The company is the only European producer offering both staple fibers and filament yarns and is the only fully integrated polyester fiber company in Europe. It has a total capacity of 120,000 tonnes per annum.

| |
| Following a statement by Trevira in November 2011 of its plans to centralize filament yarn spinning in Guben, it decided that by
the end of 2012 spinning capacity based at its Polish plant in Zielona Góra would to be moved to its Guben plant, together with
the filament capacity in Bobingen (Bavaria).
|
| |
| The concentration of all units of filament yarn production in Guben means the company will be operating only the one production site for each of its two product lines – filaments and fibers. The aim is to make the production structure slimmer and more efficient. |
| |
| The acquisition of Trevira GmbH will facilitate the entry of IVL into the branded specialist filament business and provide access to an outstanding research and development facility with accompanying intellectual property. Through both partners' global marketing and sales networks, customers will be presented with a much deeper portfolio of value-added products and we will be able to attract new customers seeking to benefit from the unique and comprehensive branded product range. |
| |
| Today, Trevira holds global leadership positions in flame retardant textiles applications and has a strong position in the hotel and cruise ship industry; automotive interiors; bico nonwoven applications and low pill apparel applications. |
| |
| Trevira can provide services throughout the entire textile value chain, which offers significant added value for its customers. Trevira is internationally certified with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. |
