| Building on the company's recent success in getting more out of its large graphite electrode plants through productivity enhancements, faster cycle times and de-bottlenecking activities, the company is now positioned to shut down its least advantaged facility -- Vyazma, Russia -- in the 2006 fourth quarter. These plant closures coupled with the downsizing of our Vyazma, Russia graphite electrode plant have reduced UCAR's higher cost graphite electrode manufacturing capacity by 30,000 metric tons. The Vyazma, Russia facility, which originally employed 1,200 people in early 1997, will have approximately 600 employees when downsizing is completed. |
