Amendment No. 1

On April 4, 2005, Eastman Kodak Company (“Kodak”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K under Items 2.03 and 9.01 to report the acquisition of Kodak Polychrome Graphics (“KPG”) through its subsidiary, Kodak Graphics Holdings, Inc.  At that time, Kodak did not report the acquisition of KPG under Item 2.01 of Form 8-K, “Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets,” based on its then determination that KPG did not constitute a significant business.  Kodak recently determined that KPG does meet the significant business criteria and, therefore, Kodak should have reported the acquisition of KPG under Item 2.01 of Form 8-K on April 4, 2005 with a subsequent filing under Item 2.01 on Form 8-K/A within 71 calendar days, or by June 17, 2005, to provide the required historical financial statements of KPG and the required pro forma financial information.  Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A is being filed to report the required information under Item 2.01 of Form 8-K and to include the required financial information under Item 9.01 of Form 8-K.

Item 2.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On April 1, 2005, Eastman Kodak Company (“Kodak”) became the sole owner of Kodak Polychrome Graphics (“KPG”) through the redemption of Sun Chemical Corporation’s (“Sun”) 50 percent interest in the KPG joint venture (“the acquisition”).  Under the terms of the transaction, Kodak redeemed all of Sun’s shares in KPG by providing $317 million in cash at closing (excluding $7 million in transaction costs) and by entering into two note payable arrangements, one that will be payable within the U.S. (“the U.S. note”) and one that will be payable outside of the U.S. (“the non-U.S. note”), that will require principal and interest payments of $200 million in the third quarter of 2006, and $50 million annually from 2008 through 2013.  The total payments due under the U.S note and the non-U.S. note are $100 million and $400 million, respectively.  The aggregate fair value of these note payable arrangements, which was recorded as long-term debt in Kodak’s consolidated balance sheet as of the acquisition date, was approximately $395 million.

Kodak’s relationship with Sun through their 50:50 ownership of the KPG joint venture prior to the acquisition constitutes a material relationship.   The $719 million of consideration that Kodak paid for the redemption of Sun’s 50% interest in KPG was determined through a process involving (1) the use of Kodak’s internal valuation models, (2) assistance by investment banking consultants and (3) arms-length negotiations between Kodak and Sun.  As described above, $395 million of the total consideration of $719 million used to fund the acquisition was sourced from Sun in the form of two note payable arrangements.  The balance of $324 million was paid in cash, which was sourced from Kodak’s own cash and the cash acquired in the acquisition.
