Filed
February 20, 2009
File
No. 333-122249
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
Pursuant
to the provisions of Rule 477 promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”)
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Kronos Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, hereby requests the withdrawal of its Post Effective Amendment No.
1 to Form S-3 Registration Statement filed with the SEC on February 20, 2009
(File No.: 333-122249).
The post
effective amendment was the incorrect form to withdraw Kronos Worldwide’s Form
S-3 Registration Statement filed with the SEC on January 24, 2005 (File No.:
333-122249), as such registration statement was amended by Pre-Effective
Amendment No. 1 to Form S-3 Registration Statement filed with the SEC on
February 17, 2005 and Pre-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Form S-3
Registration Statement filed with the SEC on February 28, 2005. The
appropriate form to withdraw the registration statement was a Form
RW.
No
securities have been sold pursuant to the post-effective amendment.
If you
should have any questions regarding this filing, please do not hesitate to call
the undersigned at 972.450.4243.
Secretary and
Associate General Counsel
