Exhibit 10.1
 
BENEFIT PLAN REVIEW COMMITTEE OF OLIN CORPORATION
 
 
AMENDMENT TO THE OLIN CORPORATION
SUPPLEMENTAL CONTRIBUTING EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP PLAN
(As amended and restated effective October 24, 2008)
 

Olin Corporation (the “Company”) currently maintains the Olin Corporation
Supplemental Contributing Employee Ownership Plan (the “Plan”).  In Section 7.1
of the Plan, the Company reserved the right to amend the Plan.  Pursuant to the
authority of the Benefit Plan Review Committee of Olin Corporation (“the
Committee”), effective as of February 19, 2009, the Committee consents to the
amendment of the Plan in the following manner:
 
1.
Section 3.4 is amended by inserting “Subject to Section 3.7,” at the beginning
of the first sentence and second sentence.

2.
Section 3.7 shall be added to the Plan as follows:

“3.7           Clawback Policy.  The Olin Corporation Clawback Policy adopted by
the Board on February 19, 2009 (including any subsequent amendments thereto, or
any successor policy that may be adopted) (the “Clawback Policy”) is
incorporated into the Plan by this reference.  Notwithstanding anything in the
Plan to the contrary, any amounts recoverable from (or not paid or issued to) a
Covered Employee (as defined in the Clawback Policy) as the result of the
Clawback Policy shall not be included in calculating the benefits accrued under
or payable to a Covered Employee under this Plan.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Section 3.7 will only apply to Incentive Awards (as defined in
the Clawback Policy) settled or paid to a Covered Employee on or after February
19, 2009.  A Covered Employee’s SCEOP Account (including credited earnings) will
be adjusted to reflect the application of the Clawback Policy.”

3.
Section 8.9 is amended by inserting “(including the Clawback Policy incorporated
by reference under Section 3.7)” after the first “Plan”.
