                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   UNAUDITED

                                March 31, 1995

(1) GENERAL--

 Organization, business and basis of presentation--

  The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared by 
Occidental Chemical Corporation (OCC), a New York corporation, in accordance 
with certain rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 
All outstanding common shares of OCC are owned indirectly by Occidental 
Petroleum Corporation (Occidental). Certain information and disclosures normally
included in the notes to financial statements have been condensed or omitted 
pursuant to such rules and regulations, but resultant disclosures are in 
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as they apply to 
interim reporting. These interim financial statements should be read in 
conjunction with the Alathon Division's audited financial statements for the 
year ended December 31, 1994 (1994 Financial Statements).

  In the opinion of OCC's management, the accompanying interim financial 
statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) 
necessary to present fairly the Alathon Division's financial position as of 
March 31, 1995 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months
then ended. The results of operations and cash flows for the period ended March
31, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash
flows to be expected for the full year.

  Reference is made to Note 1 to the 1994 Financial Statements for a summary of 
significant accounting policies.

 Supplemental cash flow information--

  For the three months ended March 31, 1995, all cash payments for income taxes 
were made by Occidental. For the same period, there were no cash payments for 
interest.

  As of March 31, 1995, trade receivables of $80,185,000 were transferred to an 
affiliate (see Note 2).

 Environmental costs--

  Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or 
capitalized as appropriate.  Expenditures that relate to existing conditions 
caused by past operations and that do not contribute to current or future 
revenue generation are expensed. No costs relating to existing conditions caused
by past operations were incurred by the Alathon Division during the first 
quarter of 1995. Reserves for estimated costs are recorded when environmental 
remedial efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. In 
determining the reserves, the Alathon Division uses the most current information
available, including similar past experiences, available technology, regulations
in effect, the timing of remediation and cost-sharing arrangements. At March 31,
1995, there were no environmental reserves related to the Alathon Division.

                                March 31, 1995

(1) GENERAL--(continued)

  The Alathon Division's estimated operating expenses relating to compliance 
with environmental laws and regulations governing ongoing operations were 
approximately $514,000 in the first quarter of 1995. In addition, estimated 
capital expenditures for environmental compliance in the first quarter of 1995 
were approximately $342,000. Management has not identified any material 
environmental matter, nor has the Alathon Division been identified as a 
potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, 
Compensation and Liability Act (Superfund) and corresponding state acts.

 Research and development costs--

  Research and development costs, which are charged to operations as incurred, 
were $1,214,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1995. These charges are 
included in Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in the accompanying 
financial statements.

(2) RECEIVABLES--

  As of March 31, 1995, OCC had transferred, without recourse, to an Occidental 
affiliate trade receivables of the Alathon Division under a revolving sale 
program amounting to $80,185,000, in connection with the ultimate sale for cash 
of such receivables by the affiliate. OCC transferred the receivables to the 
affiliate in a noncash transaction that was reflected as a reduction in the 
Alathon Division's Owner's Investment. OCC has retained the collection 
responsibility with respect to the receivables sold. An interest in newly
created receivables is transferred monthly, net of collections made from
customers. Fees related to the sales of receivables under this program, which
are allocated from OCC, were $861,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995
and are included in Other Operating Expense.

(3) ACCOUNTING CHANGE--

  Reference is made to Note 3 to the 1994 Financial Statements for a description
of an accounting change.

(4) INVENTORIES--

  Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. The first-in, first-out
(FIFO) cost method was used in determining the costs of raw materials and 
finished goods. Materials and supplies inventories were determined using the 
weighted average cost method. Inventories consisted of the following as of
March 31, 1995 (in thousands):

adjusted to reflect the purchase of the assets of the Alathon Division (acquired
by Lyondell as of May 1, 1995) as of March 31, 1995. The unaudited pro forma

if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 1995. These unaudited pro forma
condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with both the
