Notes. Westlake anticipates using any remaining net proceeds to fund the purchase price of its pending acquisition of the global compounding solutions businesses of the ACI/Perplastic Group (the &#8220;ACI Acquisition&#8221;) and for general
corporate purposes, including working capital management. The offering of the Notes is not contingent upon the successful completion of the Tender Offer or the consummation of the ACI Acquisition. </P>

jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. The offering of the Notes is being made only by means of a prospectus and
related prospectus supplement meeting the requirements of Section&nbsp;10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This press release shall not
