Item 8.01 Other Events.
Financial Statements
     As previously reported, Tronox Incorporated (the “company”) was unable to file its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, when initially due on March 16, 2009, as the company was continuing to perform an impairment analysis related to certain of its tangible and intangible assets and a review of its environmental reserves. The company has concluded its impairment analysis and this information is included herein. While the company has not concluded its review of environmental and other contingent reserves, there are indications that the environmental and other contingent reserves may have been understated. The review is continuing and no conclusion has been reached to date. As a result, none of the information contained herein or in any exhibit, including the Risk Factors, financial data and Critical Accounting Policies contains disclosure regarding environmental reserves that the company would include in an annual report on Form 10-K. The purpose of this Current Report on Form 8-K is to present certain other information with respect to the company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The information contained herein is as follows:
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
