Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On March 26, 2007, SB Decking, Inc., an inactive subsidiary of Quaker Chemical Corporation (the "Company"), and Federal Insurance Company ("Federal") entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release.   The parties had a dispute regarding certain coverage issues on policies issued by Federal as applied to numerous asbestos claims brought against the Company's subsidiary.   They have now agreed to settle this dispute whereby Federal will pay $20 million in four installments to the subsidiary to be used to pay defense and indemnity costs incurred by or on behalf of the subsidiary in connection with asbestos-related claims. In return, the subsidiary (and the Company) released Federal from any further liability under all policies issued to the subsidiary.
