1The increase in 2009 is due in part to a decrease in production volume and changes to product mix relative to the 2005 baseline.
2 Number of contacts increased significantly in 2010 as a result of ethics program enhancements and training classes that were introduced in Asia and Latin America , with a higher % of these contacts coming in the form of questions with people seeking guidance as a preventative, proactive measure
3 In addition to Lubrizol Foundation grants in the U.S., the Lubrizol Corporation provides close to $900,000 to $1,000,000 of support each year in the form of cash contributions, goods and materials to communities around the world where our facilities are located.
4 Additionally, Lubrizol employees participate in a multitude of company sponsored community outreach activities each year that benefit a growing number of global non profit organizations. The exact amount of donated work hours is difficult to quantify, but it numbers in the thousands and it is increasing steadily.
