Substantially all of Contran’s outstanding voting stock is held by trusts established for the benefit of certain children and grandchildren of Harold C. Simmons (the “Trusts”), of which Mr. Simmons is the sole trustee, or held by Mr. Simmons or persons or other entities related to Mr. Simmons. As sole trustee of the Trusts, Mr. Simmons has the power to vote and direct the disposition of the shares of Contran stock held by the Trusts. Mr. Simmons, however, disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Contran stock that the Trusts hold.

The Foundation is a tax-exempt foundation organized for charitable purposes. Harold C. Simmons is the chairman of the board of the Foundation and may be deemed to control the Foundation.

U.S. Bank National Association serves as the trustee of the CDCT. Contran established the CDCT as an irrevocable “rabbi trust” to assist Contran in meeting certain deferred compensation obligations that it owes to Harold C. Simmons. If the CDCT assets are insufficient to satisfy such obligations, Contran is obligated to satisfy the balance of such obligations as they come due. Pursuant to the terms of the CDCT, Contran (i) retains the power to vote the shares of Valhi's common stock held directly by the CDCT, (ii) retains dispositive power over such shares and (iii) may be deemed the indirect beneficial owner of such shares.

Contran sponsors the CMRT, which permits the collective investment by master trusts that maintain the assets of certain employee benefit plans Contran and related companies adopt. Harold C. Simmons is the sole trustee of the CMRT and a member of the investment committee for the CMRT. Mr. Simmons is also a participant in one or more of the employee benefit plans that invest through the CMRT.

As already stated, Valhi is the direct holder of approximately 83.0% of the outstanding shares of common stock of NL and 50.0% of the outstanding shares of Kronos Worldwide common stock. As a result of Valhi's direct and indirect ownership of NL, its subsidiary and Kronos Worldwide and pursuant to Delaware law, Valhi treats the shares of Valhi common stock that NL, its subsidiary and Kronos Worldwide own as treasury stock for voting purposes. For the purposes of this statement, such shares of Valhi common stock that NL, its subsidiary and Kronos Worldwide hold directly are not deemed outstanding.

Mr. Harold C. Simmons is chairman of the board and chief executive officer of NL and chairman of the board of Kronos Worldwide, TIMET, Valhi, VHC, Dixie Rice and Contran.

By virtue of the holding of the offices, the stock ownership and his service as trustee, all as described above, (a) Mr. Simmons may be deemed to control the entities described above and (b) Mr. Simmons and certain of such entities may be deemed to possess indirect beneficial ownership of the Shares that are directly held by NL and Kronos Worldwide. However, Mr. Simmons disclaims such beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any of such entities.

Annette C. Simmons is the wife of Harold C. Simmons. Mr. Simmons may be deemed to share indirect beneficial ownership of the shares that his wife holds directly. Mr. Simmons disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares that his wife holds directly. Mrs. Simmons disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares she does not hold directly.

The Grandchildren's Trust is a trust of which Harold C. Simmons and his wife are trustees and the beneficiaries are the grandchildren of his wife. Mr. Simmons, as co-trustee of this trust, has the power to vote and direct the disposition of the shares the trust holds.
