Item 4 is hereby amended by adding the following immediately before the
final two paragraphs thereof:

     Pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated March 15, 2006 (the
"March 2006 Underwriting Agreement"), by and among the Issuer, Nalco LLC,
Apollo Investment Fund V, L.P., Blackstone Capital Partners IV L.P. and GS
Capital (collectively, Nalco LLC, Apollo Investment Fund V, L.P.,
Blackstone Capital Partners IV L.P. and GS Capital, the "Selling
Stockholders") and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (the "March 2006
Underwriter"), the March 2006 Underwriter agreed to purchase from the
Selling Stockholders and the Selling Stockholders agreed to sell to the
March 2006 Underwriter an aggregate of 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock
(the "March 2006 Sale"), which aggregate amount includes 3,837,210 shares
which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Purchasers. In
addition, pursuant to the March 2006 Underwriting Agreement, the Selling
Stockholders granted the March 2006 Underwriter an option, exercisable
within 30 days after the date of the March 2006 Underwriting Agreement, to
purchase an additional 2,250,000 shares of Common Stock from the Selling
Stockholders at the same purchase price per share for the purpose of
covering over-allotments.

     According to the final prospectus supplement (the "Offering
Prospectus") filed by the Issuer on March 17, 2006 pursuant to Rule 424(b)
of the Securities Act, the Selling Stockholders sold an aggregate of
15,000,000 shares of Common Stock to the March 2006 Underwriter at a price
per share of $17.21 which aggregate amount includes 3,837,210 shares which
may have been deemed to be beneficially owned by the Purchasers. The March
2006 Underwriting Agreement contains standard terms and conditions for a
public offering including customary representations and warranties and
indemnity provisions. The foregoing description of the March 2006
Underwriting Agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in
its entirety by the complete text of the March 2006 Underwriting Agreement,
which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 99.1 to the Issuer's
Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 20, 2006.

     The March 2006 Sale was consummated on March 21, 2006.

ITEM 5.     INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
            ------------------------------------

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

     (a) On December 30, 2005, Nalco LLC made a distribution of an
aggregate of 38,029,261 shares of Common Stock to the members of Nalco LLC
that qualified as a "venture capital operating company" (as defined in 29
C.F.R. sec. 2510.3-101(d)) in proportion to their membership interests
pursuant to the terms of the previously reported Stockholders Agreement,
which included the distribution of 7,577,879 shares to GS Capital, which
was formerly a member of Nalco LLC. Following such distribution, the Filing
Persons beneficially held an aggregate of 13,589,911 shares of Common
Stock, consisting of (i) the direct ownership of 7,577,879 shares of Common
Stock by GS Capital and (ii) 6,012,032 shares in which GS Offshore, GS
Germany, GS Employee, GS Direct and NH held an indirect beneficial economic
interest based on the membership interests in Nalco LLC held by such
entities. Following the March 2006 Sale, (i) GS Capital directly owns
5,438,210 shares of Common Stock and (ii) GS Offshore, GS Germany, GS
Employee, GS Direct and NH may be deemed to hold an economic interest in
4,314,491 shares of Common Stock held of record by Nalco LLC.

     As of March 21, 2006, the shares of Common Stock shown as beneficially
owned by the Filing Persons reflect (i) the direct ownership of 5,438,210
shares of Common Stock by GS Capital and (ii) the percentage interest of GS
Offshore, GS Germany, GS Employee, GS Direct and NH in the 10,867,328
shares of Common Stock held of record by Nalco LLC, based on the combined
percentage interest of GS Offshore, GS Germany, GS Employee, GS Direct and
NH in Nalco LLC, and excludes the balance of such shares which represent
the other Sponsors' and management members' percentage interest in Nalco
LLC. As described in Item 4, because voting and dispositive decisions of
Nalco LLC with respect to the Common Stock of the Issuer require the
approval of at least two of the Sponsors, the Filing Persons each disclaim
beneficial ownership of the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock reported as
beneficially owned by Nalco LLC or any of the other Sponsors, and the
filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any
such person is the beneficial owner of any such securities. The percentage
of the class beneficially owned by each Filing Person is based on
142,809,895 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock reported by the
Issuer in the Offering Prospectus.

     As of March 21, 2006, GS Group may be deemed to beneficially own an
aggregate of (i) 9,752,701 shares of Common Stock which may be deemed to be
beneficially owned by the Purchasers and (ii) 5,670 shares of restricted
stock units of the Issuer granted to GS Group pursuant to the Issuer's 2004
Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") in connection with the service of Sanjeev
Mehra, a managing director of Goldman Sachs, as a director on the Issuer's
Board (2,000 of which units were granted on November 14, 2005 and vest on
January 1, 2007, 3,670 of which units were granted on February 15, 2006 and
vest on January 1, 2008 and which represent the right to receive shares of
the Common Stock on a 1-for-1 basis and which are subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Plan), representing in the aggregate
approximately 6.8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, based on
calculations made in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) of the Act.

     As of March 21, 2006, Goldman Sachs may be deemed to beneficially own
an aggregate of 9,752,701 shares of Common Stock which may be deemed to be
beneficially owned by the Purchasers representing in the aggregate
approximately 6.8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock based on
calculations made in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) of the Act.

     GS Group and Goldman Sachs disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares
of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Purchasers to the extent that
partnership interests in the Purchasers are held by persons other than
Goldman Sachs or its affiliates.

     In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Release No.
34-39538 (January 12, 1998), this filing reflects the securities
beneficially owned by the investment banking division ("IBD") of GS Group
and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, "Goldman Sachs Group").
This filing does not reflect securities, if any, beneficially owned by any
other operating unit of Goldman Sachs Group. IBD disclaims beneficial
ownership of the securities beneficially owned by (i) any client accounts
with respect to which IBD or its employees have voting or investment
discretion, or both and (ii) certain investment entities, of which IBD is
the general partner, managing general partner or other manager, to the
extent interests in such entities are held by persons other than IBD.

the aggregate of 7,417,100 shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be
beneficially owned by GS Capital, GS Offshore and NH representing in the
aggregate, approximately 5.2% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
based on calculations made in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) of the Act.

     As of March 21, 2006, each of GS oHG and GS GmbH may be deemed to

aggregate, approximately 0.2% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
based on calculations made in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) of the Act.

     As of March 21, 2006, GS Employee 2000 may be deemed to beneficially
own the aggregate of 2,108,296 shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to

based on calculations made in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) of the Act.

shares of Common Stock representing in the aggregate, less than 0.1% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock based on calculations made in accordance
with Rule 13d-3(d) of the Act.
