Tronox Increases Titanium Dioxide Prices in Asia-Pacific

Oklahoma City, June 25, 2008 – Tronox Incorporated (NYSE: TRX, TRX.B), on behalf of its subsidiary companies, today announced that prices for all TRONOX® titanium dioxide (TiO2) grades sold in the Asia-Pacific region will increase by US$150 per tonne, effective July 15, 2008, or as contracts allow. Other increases may be announced locally within the region.

This increase is in addition to the price increases announced in December 2007, March 2008 and June 4, 2008, and is the next step toward partially offsetting the extraordinary increases in freight, energy and other input costs that the TiO2 industry has absorbed over the last two years.

Tronox has and will continue to focus on increasing the efficiency and productivity of its facilities; however, these increases are required to ensure the industry can profitably reinvest in the business to meet customers’ needs in the future.

Headquartered in Oklahoma City, Tronox is the world’s third-largest producer and marketer of titanium dioxide pigment, with an annual production capacity of 642,000 tonnes. Titanium dioxide pigment is an inorganic white pigment used in paint, coatings, plastics, paper and many other everyday products. The company’s five pigment plants, which are located in the United States, Australia, Germany and the Netherlands, supply high-performance products to approximately 1,100 customers in 100 countries. In addition, Tronox produces electrolytic products, including sodium chlorate, electrolytic manganese dioxide, boron trichloride, elemental boron and lithium manganese oxide.
