Cytec Industries Inc. Announces
Expiration and Final Results of its Tender Offer for its 4.60%
Notes Due July 1, 2013
Woodland Park, New Jersey, July 29, 2009 – Cytec Industries Inc.
(NYSE:CYT) today announced the expiration and final results of
its offer to purchase up to $250,000,000 in aggregate principal
amount, less any amount accepted in the Any and All Tender Offer
of its 5.50% Notes due October 1, 2010 (the “Any and All Tender
Offer”), of its 4.60% Notes due July 1, 2013 (the “Maximum
Tender Offer”). The Maximum Tender Offer was made pursuant to an
Offer to Purchase dated June 30, 2009 (the “Offer to Purchase”),
which sets forth a complete description of the terms of the
offer and a related offer.
As of 12:00 a.m., New York City time, on July 29, 2009, the

$70,123,000. As previously announced, Cytec accepted
$234,590,000 principal amount of 2010 Notes in the Any and All
Tender Offer. Because the aggregate principal amount of 2013
Notes tendered exceeded the Maximum Tender Amount, notes will be
purchased on a pro rata basis. As a result, Cytec accepted
$15,410,000 in principal amount of 2013 Notes for payment, with
settlement expected today. The proration factor, as determined
pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, is approximately 22%.
Holders, whose 2013 Notes have been accepted for payment and who
tendered before the “Early Tender Date” of 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on July 14, 2009, will receive $950 per $1,000
principal amount of notes accepted for payment, which includes
the Early Tender Premium of $20 per $1,000 principal amount.
Holders, whose 2013 Notes have been accepted for payment and who
tendered after the Early Tender Date, will receive $930 per
$1,000 principal amount of notes accepted for payment.
Citi, RBS Securities Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities served as
dealer managers for the tender offers. Global Bondholder
