Item 5.02(d)   Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangement of Certain Officers.
     On July 3, 2008, the Board of Directors of Libbey Inc. elected John C. Orr as a member of Class II of the Board of Directors, to serve until the 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until his successor has been elected and qualified.

The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Orr is independent of the Company and its management under the standards set forth in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines preclude a determination by the Board that a director is independent if the director does not meet the independence requirements set forth in the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange.
     Mr. Orr is President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of Myers Industries, Inc. (NYSE: MYE), a manufacturer and distributor of polymer products for industrial, agricultural, automotive, commercial and consumer markets in North America and internationally. Prior to becoming President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of Myers Industries, Inc. in 2005, Mr. Orr served as President and Chief Operating Officer of the company from 2003 to 2005 and as General Manager of its Buckhorn, Inc. division from 2000 to 2003. Before joining Buckhorn, Inc., Mr. Orr held various positions with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company for twenty-eight years, most recently as Vice President, Manufacturing, of the North American Tire Division.
