On July 27, 2007, Chevron Nigeria, Ltd., Snamprogetti, and KBR, Inc.’s participating subsidiaries agreed to an amendment of the Escravos, Nigeria gas to liquids project, which effectively converts the contract from a fixed-price to a cost reimbursable contract. The amendment is effective as of the original contract date and contains client determined incentives. At conversion, KBR’s net financial impact is approximately positive $3 million before taxes and minority interests.
