Company (&#147;<B><I>Arya Sasol</I></B>&#148;) to debottleneck its ethane cracker. A non-U.S. subsidiary of Technip is discussing with Arya Sasol the possibility of conducting a feasibility study for the debottlenecking of Arya Sasol&#146;s existing
olefin complex. The feasibility study, if conducted, would have an approximate value of &#128;250,000.&nbsp;As required by its sanctions compliance policy and processes discussed in Technip&#146;s response to prior comment 2, Technip is performing
due diligence on Arya Sasol. The Technip subsidiary is not permitted to enter into a contract with Arya Sasol until the satisfactory completion of such due diligence. </P>

the owner of the plant is owned or controlled by the Government of Iran. The feasibility study, for which payment will not be denominated in U.S. dollars, will be worth &#128;250,000. </P>

study. </P>
