				  Units.


Section 1.02. Additional Investment
		Representations. Each Management Member represents and warrants that:

(a)
			 the Management Members
				  financial situation is such that such Management Member can afford to bear the

				  knowledge and experience in financial and business matters are such that the
				  Management Member is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the
				  investment in the Units;


(c)
			 the Management Member understands
				  that the Units are a speculative investment which involves a high degree of
				  risk of loss of Management Members investment therein, there are
				  substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Units and, on the date
				  on which such Management Member acquires such Units and for an indefinite
				  period following such date, there will be no public market for the Units and,
				  accordingly, it may not be possible for the Management Member to liquidate the
				  Management Members investment including in case of emergency, if at
				  all;


(d)

				  that if the Management Member ceases to provide services to the Company and its
				  Affiliates, the Company and its Affiliates have the right to repurchase the

(e)
			 the Management Member understands
				  and has taken cognizance of all the risk factors related to the purchase of the

				  warranties have been made to the Management Member or Management Members
				  representatives concerning the Units, the Company, the Subsidiaries or their
				  respective prospects or other matters;


(f)
			 the Management Member has been given
				  the opportunity to examine all documents and to ask questions of, and to
				  receive answers from, the Company and its representatives concerning the
				  Company and its subsidiaries, the acquisition of Nalco Company and certain
				  Subsidiaries of Nalco International S.A.S. by subsidiaries of the Company, the
				  LLC Agreement, the Companys organizational documents and the terms and
				  conditions of the purchase of the

Units and to obtain any additional
		information which the Management Member deems necessary; and

(d) No Transfer by any Management Member may
		be made pursuant to this Article II (except pursuant to an effective
		registration statement under the 1933 Act) unless and until such Management
		Member has first delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel (reasonably
		acceptable in form and substance to the Company) that neither registration nor
		qualification under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws is
		required in connection with such Transfer.

Section 2.02. Call Option. (a) If a
		Management Members Services to the Company or any Subsidiary terminate
		for any of the reasons set forth in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) below (each such
		event a Termination Event), the Company shall have the right but
		not the obligation to purchase, from time to time after such termination of
		Services, any Units held by such Management Member for a period of 60 days
		(subject to extension as provided below) immediately following the later of (A)
		the date of the Termination Event and (B) the date that is six (6) months and
		one day after the date on which such Management Member acquired such Unit (the
		later of (A) and (B), the First Purchase Date), and such Management
		Member shall be required to sell to the Company, any or all of such Units then
		held by such Management Member, at a price per Unit equal to the applicable
		purchase price determined pursuant to Section 2.02(c):

(i) if such Management Members Service
		with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated due to the Disability or
		death of the Management Member;

(ii) if such Management Members
		Service with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated by the Company and
		its Subsidiaries without Cause or by the Management Member for any
		reason;

(iii) if such Management Members
		Service with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated by the Company or
		any of its Subsidiaries for Cause.

(b) If on the 61st day following the date of
		the Termination Event, the Company has not purchased all of a terminated
		Management Members Units, and the Company has not opted to extend its 60
		day election period pursuant to Section 2.02(d), the Company shall on or before
		the 61st day provide written notice to the Investor Groups of (i) its decision
		not to purchase some or all of such Units and (ii) the number of such
		Management Members Eligible Units (defined below) which the Company did
		not purchase, and the Investor Groups shall have the right to purchase and such
		Management Member shall be required to sell to the Investor Group(s), any or
		all of the Units (the Eligible Units) then held by such Management
		Member at a price per Unit equal to the applicable purchase price determined
		pursuant to Section 2.02(c). The Investor Groups rights to purchase such
		Eligible Units and each Management Members corresponding obligation to
		sell such Eligible Units shall terminate on the 120th day following the date of
		the Termination Event. Upon receipt of the written notice described above, each
		Investor Group desiring to purchase Units shall within 45 days of receipt of
		the Companys notice provide written notice to the Company, specifying
		that such Investor Group is willing to purchase either (i) its pro rata share
		of the Eligible Units (based upon the number of Units held by such Investor
		Group relative to the total number of Units held by all of the Investor
		Groups),

-5-





---



(ii) a number of Eligible Units less than
		such Investor Groups pro rata share, or (iii) any and all Units available
		to be purchased; provided, that the Investor Groups shall, as much as
		reasonably practicable, consult with each other and coordinate the exercise of
		rights such that all Eligible Units are elected to be purchased. Upon receipt
		of the Investor Groups respective notices, the Company will notify the
		Management Member of the Investor Group(s) elections and the Management
		Member will be obligated to sell (x) to the Investor Groups making elections
		described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, the number of
		Eligible Units elected to be purchased by such Investor Groups and (y) all
		remaining Eligible Units, if any, to the Investor Groups making the election
		described in clause (iii) of the preceding sentence to such Investor Group(s)
		on a pro rata basis (based upon the number of Units held by such Investor Group
		relative to the total number of Units held by all of the Investor Groups making
		such election), but in no event more that any such Investor Groups elected to
		purchase.

(c) In the event of a purchase by the
		Company pursuant to Section 2.02(a) and/or the Investor Group(s) pursuant to
		Section 2.02(b) (each a Units Buyer), the purchase price shall
		be:

(i) in the case of a Termination Event
		specified in Section 2.02(a)(i) or 2.02(a)(ii) a price per Unit equal to the
		most recently determined Fair Market Value, and

(ii) in the case of a Termination Event
		specified in Section 2.02(a)(iii), a price per Unit equal to the lesser of (1)
		Fair Market Value and (2) Cost.

(d) The Units Buyer may pay the purchase
		price for such Units (i) by delivery of funds deposited into an account
		designated by the Management Member, a bank cashiers check, a certified
		check or a company check of the Units Buyer for the purchase price; (ii) if the
		Units Buyer is the Company and is prohibited from paying cash by financing or
		liquidity constraints and is unable to pay the purchase price as provided in
		clause (iii), by delaying the exercise of the purchase right described under
		Section 2.02(a) until the earlier of (x) when the financing restrictions lapse
		and (y) when the Company is able to pay the purchase price as provided in
		clause (iii); or (iii) if the Units Buyer is the Company and has the right to
		purchase such Units during the period following a Qualified IPO (including in
		respect of a purchase that was delayed pursuant to clause (ii)), by delivery of
		a number of shares of Issuer Common Stock determined by dividing (A) the
		aggregate purchase price of the Units being sold by such Management Member by
		(B) the Public Share FMV as of the close of trading on the trading day
		immediately prior to the delivery thereof to the Management Member.
		Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Units Buyer may
		deduct and withhold from the amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this
		Agreement such amounts as necessary to comply with the Internal Revenue Code of
		1986, as amended, or any other provision of applicable law, with respect to the
		making of such payment.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
		elsewhere herein, the Company shall not be obligated to purchase any Units at
		any time pursuant to this Section 2.02, regardless of whether it has delivered
		a notice of its election to purchase any such Units, (i) to the extent that (A)
		the purchase of such Units (together with any other purchases of Units pursuant
		to

-6-





---



Sections 2.02 or 2.03 hereof, or pursuant to
		similar provisions in any other agreements with other investors of which the
		Company has at such time been given or has given notice) or (B) in the event of
		an election to purchase such Units with shares of Issuer Common Stock, the
		issuance of such shares by the IPO Entity, the purchase of such shares by the
		Company or the distribution of such shares to the Management Member would
		result (x) in a violation of any law, statute, rule, regulation, policy, order,
		writ, injunction, decree or judgment promulgated or entered by any governmental
		authority applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or
		their assets (including any unavailability of a registration statement or
		exemption from registration necessary to allow delivery of shares of Issuer
		Common Stock to the Management Member), (y) after giving effect thereto
		(including any dividends or other distributions or loans from a Subsidiary of
		the Company to the Company in connection therewith), in a Financing Default or
		(z) in the Company being required to disgorge any profit to the IPO Entity
		pursuant to Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act, (ii) if immediately prior to such
		purchase of Units, issuance of Issuer Common Stock or purchase of shares of
		Issuer Common Stock, as the case may be, there exists a Financing Default which
		prohibits such issuance or purchase (including any dividends or other
		distributions or loans from a Subsidiary of the Company to the Company in
		connection therewith), or (iii) if the Company does not have funds available to
		effect such purchase of Units or Issuer Common Stock. The Company shall within
		30 days of learning of any such fact so notify the Management Member that it is
		not obligated to purchase such Units and has deferred its right to make such
		purchase until such violation, potential liability under the 1933 Act or 1934
		Act, Financing Default or unavailability of funds would not result therefrom or
		has ceased. The Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cure
		any such Financing Default that is curable. To the extent that, pursuant to
		this Section 2.02(e), the Company is not obligated to pay for a Management
		Members Units in accordance with one of the payment methods described in
		the first sentence of Section 2.02(d), the Company shall, except as otherwise
		permitted by this Section 2.02(e), be required to pay for such Units pursuant
		to an alternate method of payment described in the first sentence of Section
		2.02(d).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
		contained in this Section 2.02, any Units which the Company has elected to
		purchase from a Management Member, but which in accordance with Section 2.02(e)
		are not purchased at the applicable time provided in this Section 2.02, shall
		be purchased by the Company on the tenth Business Day after such date or dates
		that it is no longer permitted to defer purchasing such Units under Section
		2.02(e), and the Company shall give such Management Member five Business Days
		prior notice of any such purchase.

Section 2.03. Put Right. (a) Subject to the
		Call Right described in Section 2.02, following a Qualified IPO and for so long
		as no Termination Event pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(iii) shall have occurred
		with respect to a Management Member, such Management Member shall have the
		right, but not the obligation, to sell (the Put Right) beginning on
		the later of (x) the first date immediately following the expiration of any
		Company or underwriter lock-up period applicable to such Qualified
		IPO and (y) the date that is at least six (6) months and one day after, the
		Sale Date ( the later of (x) and (y) shall be referred to as the First
		Put Date), and the Company shall be required to purchase from such
		Management Member, a number of such Management Members Units as
		determined by such Management Member, at a price per Unit equal to the Fair
		Market Value as of the date the Management Member exercises

-7-





---



such Put Right. For the avoidance of doubt,
		subject to the Call Right described in Section 2.02, a Management Member shall
		remain entitled to the Put Right following a Termination Event pursuant to
		Sections 2.02(a)(i) or (ii) with respect to such Management Member.

(b) Each Management Member who desires to
		sell any of his or her Units following the applicable First Put Date shall send
		written notice to the Company of his or her intention to sell such Units
		pursuant to this Section 2.03. Subject to the exercise of any Call Right
		pursuant to Section 2.02, the closing of the purchase shall take place at the
		principal office of the Company on a date specified by the Company no later
		than 30 days after the giving of such notice.

(c) At the closing of a purchase pursuant to
		a Put Right, the Company will pay to the Management Member the purchase price
		for such Units (determined in accordance with Section 2.03(a)) by delivery of a
		number of shares of Issuer Common Stock determined by dividing (A) the
		aggregate purchase price of the Units being sold by such Management Member by
		(B) the Public Share FMV as of the close of trading on the trading day
		immediately prior to the delivery thereof to the Management Member.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
		elsewhere herein, the Company shall not be obligated to purchase any Units at
		any time pursuant to this Section 2.03 (i) to the extent that (A) the purchase
		of such Units (together with any other purchases of Units pursuant to Sections
		2.02 or 2.03 hereof, or pursuant to similar provisions in any other agreements
		with other investors of which the Company has at such time been given or has
		given notice) or (B) the issuance of shares by the IPO Entity or the purchase
		of such shares by the Company would result (x) in a violation of any law,
		statute, rule, regulation, policy, order, writ, injunction, decree or judgment
		promulgated or entered by any governmental authority applicable to the Company
		or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their assets (including any
		unavailability of a registration statement or exemption from registration
		necessary to allow delivery of shares of Issuer Common Stock to the Management
		Member(s)), (y) after giving effect thereto, in a Financing Default or (z) in
		the Company being required to disgorge any profit to the IPO Entity pursuant to
		Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act or (ii) if immediately prior to such purchase of
		Units, issuance of Issuer Common Stock or purchase of shares of Issuer Common
		Stock, as the case may be, there exists a Financing Default which prohibits any
		such issuance or purchase. The Company agrees to use commercially reasonable
		efforts to cure any such Financing Default that is curable. To the extent that
		the Company is not obligated to pay for any Units as described in the first
		sentence of Section 2.03(c) pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.03(d), the
		Company shall promptly notify any Management Member that has delivered a notice
		of exercise of a Put Right that it is not obligated to purchase such Units and
		has deferred its right to make such purchase until such violation, potential
		liability under the 1933 Act or 1934 Act or Financing Default would not result
		therefrom or has ceased.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
		contained in this Section 2.03, any Units which a Management Member has elected
		to sell to the Company, but which in accordance with Section 2.03(d) are not
		purchased at the applicable time provided in this Section 2.03, shall be
		purchased by the Company on the tenth Business Day after such date or dates
		that it is no

-8-





---



longer permitted to defer purchasing such
		Units under Section 2.03(d), and the Company shall give such Management Member
		five Business Days prior notice of any such purchase.

Section 2.04. Tag-Along Right. (a) If, at
		any time prior to a Qualified IPO, one or more Sponsor Members propose to
		Transfer, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, a number
		of Units representing at least 30% of the Sponsor Members aggregate
		Initial Equity Stakes (as defined in the LLC Agreement) to any Person (other
		than a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee (as defined in the LLC Agreement) of
		any such Sponsor Member and other than a Transfer in accordance with the
		Registration Rights Agreement and other than to another Sponsor Member) (a
		Tag-Along Purchaser), then, unless such transferring Sponsor
		Member(s) are entitled to give and do give a Drag-Along Sale Notice (as defined
		in the LLC Agreement) and no other Sponsor Member(s) has elected to purchase
		its pro rata share of such Units pursuant to Section 2.04(a) of the Sponsor
		Agreement, the Company shall first provide written notice to each of the
		Management Members, which notice (the Tag-Along Notice) shall
		state: (i) the maximum number of Units proposed to be Transferred (the
		Tag-Along Securities); (ii) the purchase price per Unit (the
		Tag-Along Price) for the Tag-Along Securities and (iii) any other
		material terms and conditions of such sale, including the proposed transfer
		date (which date will be within 60 business days after the termination of the
		Election Period (defined below), subject to extension for any required
		regulatory approvals). Each of the Management Members that has been provided
		with the Tag-Along Notice (each, a Tag-Along Manager) shall have
		the right to sell to such Tag-Along Purchaser, upon the terms set forth in the
		Tag-Along Notice, up to the aggregate number of Units which are held by such
		Tag-Along Manager multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
		aggregate number of Units proposed to be sold by the transferring Sponsor
		Member as reflected in the Tag-Along Notice and the denominator of which is the
		total number of Units which are held by the transferring Sponsor Member. If the
		number of Units elected to be sold by the Tag-Along Managers and any other
		individuals identified from time to time on Exhibit A to the LLC Agreement, the
		transferring Sponsor Member and any other Sponsor Members electing to
		participate in such sale is greater than the number of Tag-Along Securities
		specified in the Tag-Along Notice, the number of Units being sold by each such
		seller shall be reduced such that the applicable seller shall be entitled to
		(and obligated to) sell only their pro rata share of Units (based on the
		aggregate number of Units held by such seller to the total number of Units held
		by all of such electing sellers). The transferring Sponsor Member(s), the
		Sponsor Members electing to participate in such sale and the Tag-Along
		Manager(s) exercising their rights pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall effect
		the sale of the Tag-Along Securities, and such Tag-Along Manager(s) shall sell
		the number of Tag-Along Securities required to be sold by such Tag-Along
		Manager(s) pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) within 60 business days after the
		expiration of the Election Period, subject to extension for any required
		regulatory approvals.

(b) The tag-along rights provided by this
		Section 2.04 must be exercised by any Tag-Along Manager wishing to sell its
		Units within 10 business days following the date of delivery of the Tag-Along
		Notice (the Election Period), by delivery of a written notice to
		the Company indicating such Tag-Along Managers wish to irrevocably
		exercise its rights and specifying the number of Units (up to the maximum
		number of Units owned by such Tag-Along Manager requested to be purchased by
		such Tag-Along Purchaser) it wishes to sell; provided that

-9-





---



any Tag-Along Manager may waive its rights
		under this Section 2.04 prior to the expiration of such 10-business day period
		by giving written notice to the Company, which will be distributed by the
		Company to the transferring Sponsor Member(s). The failure of a Tag-Along
		Manager to respond within such 10-business day period shall be deemed to be a
		waiver of such Tag-Along Managers rights under this Section 2.04.

(c) In connection with any sale pursuant to
		this Section 2.04, each Tag-Along Manager shall make to the Tag-Along Purchaser
		the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements as
		the transferring Sponsor Member(s) makes in connection with the proposed
		transfer (except that in the case of representations, warranties, covenants,
		indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to the transferring Sponsor
		Member(s), a Tag-Along Manager shall make the comparable representations,
		warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements); provided that all
		representations, warranties and indemnities shall be made by the transferring
		Sponsor Member(s) and such Tag-Along Manager severally and not jointly and that
		the liability of the transferring Sponsor Member(s) and such Tag-Along Manager
		thereunder shall be borne by each of them on a pro rata basis. The Tag-Along
		Managers shall receive the same type and amount of consideration (and rights)
		per Unit as is paid or delivered to the transferring Sponsor Member(s) in the
		sale pursuant to Section 2.04(a).

(d) No Transfer of any Unit pursuant to this
		Section 2.04 shall be effective unless and until the applicable transferee
		agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the LLC
		Agreement.

Section 2.05. Fair Market Value. Either the
		Board or the compensation committee of the Board shall undertake in good faith
		to determine the Fair Market Value of the Units no less frequently than
		annually and on a quarterly basis if necessary in connection with a Transfer of
		Units to the Company pursuant to Section 2.02 or Section 2.03 of this
		Agreement. Such determination shall be made in the sole discretion of the Board
		or the compensation committee of the Board, as the case may be.

ARTICLE III

Confidentiality; Intellectual Property
		Rights

Section 3.01. (a) No Management Member shall
		at any time (whether during or after such Management Members service with
		the Company or its Subsidiaries) (i) retain or use for the benefit, purposes or
		account of the Management Member or any other Person; or (ii) disclose,
		divulge, reveal, communicate, share, transfer or provide access to any Person
		outside the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than its professional advisers
		who are bound by confidentiality obligations), any non-public, proprietary or
		confidential information (including trade secrets, know-how, research and
		development, software, databases, inventions, processes, formulae, technology,
		designs and other intellectual property, information concerning finances,
		investments, profits, pricing, costs, products, services, vendors, customers,
		clients, partners, investors, personnel, compensation, recruiting, training,

		of the Board. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
		the successors and assigns of the parties pursuant to this paragraph.

Section 5.02. Conversion; Restructuring;
		Recapitalization; Reorganization. (a) In connection with a Qualified IPO,
		pursuant to Section 4.06 of the LLC Agreement, the Units may be converted at
		the discretion of the Board into Reclassified Securities (as defined in the LLC
		Agreement) and it is contemplated that the restrictions contained in this
		Agreement would in such case be replicated in one or more management
		shareholders agreements governing the Reclassified Securities to which the
		Management Members would become parties.

(b) The Company may, at the discretion of
		the Board and in accordance with applicable U.S. state and federal law
		(including the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder),

		or restructuring (each, a Restructuring Event) pursuant to which
		the Members would become members or shareholders of a new limited liability
		company or corporation and cease to be Members of the Company or receive
		different securities of the Company. The units, shares or other equity
		interests provided to each Management Member pursuant to such Corporate
		Restructuring would provide each Management Member with substantially similar
		economic and other rights and privileges as such Management Member had as a
		Member of the Company prior to such Restructuring Event and which are
		consistent with the rights and preferences attendant to the Units held by the
		Management Members immediately prior to such Restructuring Event. It is
		contemplated that the Management Members, the company formed by such
		Restructuring Event and, in the discretion of the Sponsor Members, the Sponsor
		Members, would enter a management members agreement or management shareholders
		agreement, as the case may be, in conjunction with such Restructuring Event,
		containing provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this
		Agreement. The Management Members hereby agree to enter into any such
		management members agreement or management shareholders agreement.
