2 Agenda Pricing & Margin Trends China & India Outlook 2
3 A strong start. but price corrections have set in Asia IPEX v Brent US$/bbl Brent Crude Oil ($/bbl) Asia IPEX Prices were largely supported by demand and supply issues; Chinese buying But weaker crude oil, destocking and start up of new capacities are setting the tone for Q2 3
4 Olefins (US$/tonne) May'16 June'16 July'16 Aug'16 Sep'16 Oct'16 Nov'16 Dec'16 Jan'17 Feb'17 March'17 April'17 May'17 Propylene Ethylene Butadiene Polyolefins (US$/tonne) May'16 June'16 July'16 Aug'16 Sep'16 Oct'16 Nov'16 Dec'16 Jan'17 Feb'17 March'17 April'17 May'17 LLDPE PP AromaKcs (US$/tonne) May'16 June'16 July'16 Aug'16 Sep'16 Oct'16 Nov'16 Dec'16 Jan'17 Feb'17 March'17 April'17 May'17 Benzene Toluene Fibre Intermediates (US$/tonne) May'16 June'16 July'16 Aug'16 Sep'16 Oct'16 Nov'16 Dec'16 Jan'17 Feb'17 March'17 April'17 May'17 Paraxylene PTA Propylene weighed down by ample supplies in China; weakness in key derivatives Butadiene sharp correction after a 70% jump in prices led by tight availability and strong buying Excess supplies and downstream shutdowns have weighed down PX prices 4
5 But margins remain robust supported by lower oil prices 1000 Cracker Margins (US$/tonne) to date SE Asia naphtha (spot) Europe naphtha (contract) US ethane (contract) 5
6 Gains have extended to PE 1600 PE margins (US$/tonne) US - Contract Margin, Ethane Feed Europe - Contract Margin, Naphtha Feed NE Asia - Spot Margin, Naphtha Feed 6
7 How will China perform this year? Realignment of the economy slower growth a reality But demand for many products showed good growth in 2016 Speculative buying/trading activity helped But indications of tighter credit conditions this year Start up of new capacities CTO/MTO/PDH and wide range of derivatives And rising self sufficiency or excess capacity in some products has opened doors for competitively priced exports and constrained operating rates Polypropylene (m tonnes) % ProducKon Imports Self sufficiency (%) Source: ICIS Supply and Demand Database 7

11 Mixed fortunes in India Demonetisation impact temporary growth for key chemicals slower than previous year Medium and long-term prospects remain positive Startup of new capacities Two new crackers in 2017 Temporary surplus for some products Rising import dependency Imports of key chemicals continues to expand 11

19 Conclusion Slowing Middle East Slower pace of investments Focus on value-added derivatives Resurgent US First wave of cracker expansions heading towards completion Strong interest points to a second wave Trade flows set to change Balancing Asia Low oil prices sustains margin recovery for naphtha crackers China - moving towards increasing self-sufficiency; pace of expansion slows Healthy demand growth across key markets 19
