Customer / Supplier Letter Template

[Date]

Dear Valued Customer / Supplier,

We are writing regarding the recent announcement (https://www.huntsman.com/news/media-releases/detail/626/olin-and-huntsman-announce-transformative-merger-of-equals) that we have entered into a definitive agreement to combine with Olin Corporation in a merger of equals to create a leading North American chemicals company.

The combined organization is expected to benefit from enhanced scale, scope, efficiency and resilience, and we are excited by the opportunities that it will bring. However, until the merger is completed, it is ‘business as usual.’ Huntsman and Olin remain separate companies and will continue to operate independently.

We recognize that you may have questions about what this means for your business. Please be assured that our current focus is unchanged: supporting your needs, honoring our existing commitments, and maintaining the standards of safety, reliability and performance you expect from Huntsman.

As the merger process progresses, updates will be provided through official channels.

Thank you for your continued trust and partnership. We value our relationship and remain committed to working with you throughout this period.

Sincerely,

[Name]
