The Third Supplemental Indenture amends the reporting requirements of the RSGI Indenture by substituting Albemarle for Rockwood so that, so long as Albemarle is a guarantor of the RSGI Notes and complies with certain SEC requirements, the reports, information and other documents required to be filed and furnished to holders of the RSGI Notes pursuant to the RSGI Indenture may, at the option of RSGI, be filed by and be those of Albemarle rather than, as had been done previously, Rockwood.
