Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

As announced on April 25, 2005, as of April 22, 2005, our parent, RPP Holdings LLC, entered into a transactions agreement with Borden Chemical, Inc. (“Borden Chemical”) and its affiliates and affiliates of Resolution Specialty Materials, Inc. (“RSM”) pursuant to which we and RSM will be combined with Borden Chemical. We, RSM and Borden Chemical are each controlled by Apollo Management L.P. Upon consummation of the combinations, Borden Chemical will change its name to Hexion Specialty Chemicals, Inc. Completion of the combinations is subject to customary closing conditions as described below and we, Borden Chemical and RSM will continue to operate independently until those conditions are met. We expect the combinations to close in the second quarter of 2005.

Closing of the combinations is subject to various conditions including but not limited to there having occurred no material adverse effect to any of the parties to the combinations; receipt of necessary governmental approvals, including pursuant to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Act; receipt of any required third-party consents; there having occurred no default or event of default under any of the indentures governing our notes or the Borden Chemical notes; receipt of all stockholder or member consents or approvals; and the receipt of financing through the new senior secured credit facilities. The transaction agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants. None of the representations or warranties survive the closing of the combinations. The transactions agreement may be terminated by mutual agreement by us and the other parties to the transactions agreement or by each of the parties if any of the conditions in the transactions agreement have not been met on or after August 20, 2005. A press release is attached as Exhibit 99.
