	 	Re:      	Separation Agreement 

 Dear Sharon: 

This letter (“Separation Agreement”) sets forth the terms and conditions of your retirement from Axiall Corporation. Your employment as SVP, Supply Chain ends
effective December 31, 2015 (“Separation Date”). As of the Separation Date, you will no longer hold any position as an officer or employee of the Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates, and will promptly execute any such
documents and take such actions as may be necessary or reasonably requested to effectuate or memorialize the separation of your employment. 
  

	 	1.	SEVERANCE BENEFITS 

 In consideration for you signing this Separation Agreement no earlier
than the Separation Date, you will receive payments and benefits as specified in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Severance Benefits”). You acknowledge that the compensation and benefits provided under this Separation Agreement
are greater than what you would be legally entitled to receive in the absence of this Separation Agreement. 
  

	 	2.	WAIVER AND RELEASE 

 In exchange for the Severance Benefits the Company will provide you
under this Separation Agreement, you release and forever discharge the Company, any and all past, present or future parents, subsidiaries and affiliates (the “Axiall Companies”), and any and all past, present, or future related persons or
entities, including but not limited to the Company’s and the Axiall Companies’ officers, directors, managers, employees, shareholders, agents, attorneys, successors and assigns, specifically including without limitation Axiall Corporation
(the “Released Parties”) from, any and all actions, claims, demands and damages, whether actual or potential, known or unknown, and specifically but not exclusively, which you may have or claim to have against the Released Parties as of
the date you sign this Separation Agreement including, without limitation, any and all claims related or in any manner incidental

 to your employment with the
Company or termination of that employment relationship (“claims”) which you or your heirs, successors, executors, or other representatives may have. All such claims are forever barred by this Separation Agreement regardless of the forum in
which such claims might be brought, including, but not limited to, claims (a) under any federal, state or local law governing the employment relationship or its termination (including, but not limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Acts of
1964 and 1991; the Americans with Disabilities Act; the Family Medical Leave Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Rehabilitation Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the federal Age Discrimination in
Employment Act, any state, local, and other federal employment laws, and any amendments to any of the foregoing) and/or (b) under the common law for breach of contract, wrongful discharge, personal injuries and/or torts. You understand that
this is a general waiver and release of all claims, known or unknown, that you may have against the Released Parties based on any act, omission, matter, cause or thing that occurred through the date of your execution of this Separation
Agreement. 
 The above release does not waive claims (i) that may arise after you sign this Separation Agreement, (ii) which cannot be
released by private agreement or (iii) to enforce the terms of this Separation Agreement, including the payment of the compensation and benefits specified in Exhibit A. 

 

	 	3.	COVENANT NOT TO SUE 

 You understand that this release will be final and binding. You
promise that you will not pursue any claim that you have settled by this release. You further understand that nothing in this release generally prevents you from filing a charge or complaint with or from participating in an investigation or
proceeding conducted by the EEOC, NLRB, or any other federal, state or local agency charged with the enforcement of any employment laws, although by signing this release you are waiving your right to individual relief based on claims asserted in
such a charge or complaint. The Company agrees that this Separation Agreement does not extend to, release or modify any rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses to which you are entitled from the Company or its insurers under the
Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, or other corporate governing law or instruments. 
  

	 	4.	NO RE-EMPLOYMENT 

 You agree that you will not seek or accept employment with the Company,
including assignment to or on behalf of the Company as an independent contractor or through any third party, and the Company has no obligation to consider you for any future employment or assignment.

procure any person, firm, or entity to make or issue, any statement in any form, including written, oral and electronic communications of any kind, which conveys negative or adverse information about you. This paragraph does not apply to truthful
testimony compelled by applicable law or legal process. 
  

	 	8.	NATURE OF AGREEMENT 

 By signing this Separation Agreement, you acknowledge that you are
doing so freely, knowingly and voluntarily. You acknowledge that in signing this Separation Agreement you have relied only on the promises written in this Separation Agreement and not on any other promise made by the Company or Axiall
Companies. This Separation Agreement is not, and will not be considered, an admission of liability or of a violation of any applicable contract, law, rule, regulation, or order of any kind.

This Separation Agreement contains the entire agreement between the Company, other Axiall Companies and you regarding your departure from the Company,
provided that all post-employment covenants contained in Paragraph 8 of the May 2013, May 2014 and May 2015 Restricted Stock Unit Agreements or in any other equity incentive agreement, remain in full force and effect. The
Severance Benefits are in full satisfaction of all compensation arrangements between you and the Company.

	 	9.	SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS 

 The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of,
and be binding upon, your successors, administrators, heirs, legal representatives and assigns, and the successors and assigns of the Company. The Company shall require any successor (including without limitation any persons acquiring directly or
indirectly all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise, and such successor shall thereafter be deemed the Company for purposes of this Agreement) to
assume and agree to perform the obligations under this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. 

On behalf of all of the senior leaders of the Company, I thank you for your contributions and years of service to Axiall Corporation and its predecessor companies.
