MILACRON
SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLAN


This Plan was approved by the Board of Directors on September 15, 1987, to
provide supplemental retirement benefits to certain officers of Milacron Inc.

1.       The term Plan means the Milacron Inc. Supplemental Retirement Plan as
         described in this document.

2.       The following terms shall have the same meanings as those defined in
         the Milacron Retirement Plan, hereinafter called the Retirement Plan -

                  Highest Average Compensation;
                  Accrued Benefit;
                  Year of Credited Service;
                  Benefit Commencement Date;
                  Normal Retirement Date;
                  Early Retirement Date;
                  Primary Social Security Benefit;
                  Actuarial Equivalent;
                  Company;
                  Board;
                  Participant.

         For purposes of this Plan, the term Highest Average Compensation shall
         be determined using "Compensation" as defined under the Milacron
         Retirement Plan without regard to any dollar limitations and including
         employee deferrals under the Milacron Compensation Deferral Plan.

3.       The term Recipient shall mean a Participant who also holds one of the
         following offices in Milacron Inc.: Chairman, President, Vice
         President, Treasurer, Secretary or Controller.

4.       As used in this document, the words "he", "him" and "his" shall be
         taken to refer equally, to a man or a woman.

5.       Subject to the possible choice of a different form of benefit as
         provided in Section 8, a Recipient shall receive, beginning on his
         Benefit Commencement Date and ending on the first day of the month in
         which he dies, a monthly pension equal to one-twelfth of the net annual
         benefit defined in Section 6, provided that his benefit has become
         vested as provided in Section 9.

6.       The net annual benefit shall consist of a gross amount, as defined in
         Section 7, reduced by the sum of (a) the Recipient's Accrued Benefit
         under the Retirement Plan, and (b) the product
<PAGE>   2
         obtained by multiplying 1/70th of his Primary Social Security Benefit
         by the number, not in excess of 35, of his years of Credited Service.

7.       The gross amount for any Recipient shall be 1.5% of his Highest Average
         Compensation multiplied by the number (not greater than 35) of his
         Years of Credited Service and shall be adjusted to reflect an Actuarial
         Equivalent unless retirement is elected under a Company sponsored
         temporary early retirement program.

8.       A Recipient shall have options to elect different forms of benefit, and
         his spouse shall have pre-retirement survivor benefits and costs
         associated therewith, consistent with those provided by the Retirement
         Plan. Elections made under the Retirement Plan and under this Plan need
         not be the same.

9.       Unless forfeited pursuant to Section 13, a Recipient's benefit shall
         become vested -

                  (a)      on his Normal Retirement Date; or
                  (b)      on his Early Retirement Date; or
                  (c)      on the date of his involuntary termination of
                           employment before reaching the age of 55 but after
                           completion of ten Years of Credited Service; or
                  (d)      on the date of his "Qualifying Termination" (as
                           defined in Schedule A, attached hereto) following a
                           "Change in Control" (as defined in Schedule B,
                           attached hereto).

10.      By accepting payment of any benefit under the Plan the Recipient agrees
         not to be employed, or consult, in any business which is, or is about
         to be, engaged in a business of the same or substantially the same
         nature as the businesses of the Company or its subsidiaries without
         prior written consent of the Company, and breach of this agreement by
         the Recipient shall be cause for termination of payment of benefits
         under the Plan.

11.      The establishment of the Plan shall not be construed as conferring any
         legal rights upon any Recipient or other person for a continuation of
         employment, nor shall it interfere with the rights of the Company to
         discharge any Recipient and to treat him without regard to the effect
         which such treatment might have upon him as a Recipient.

12.      Any benefit payable under the Plan shall not be subject in any manner
         to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge,
         encumbrance, lien or charge, and any attempt to cause any such benefit
         to be so subjected shall not be recognized except to such extent as may
         be required by law.

13.      In the event that a Recipient shall at any time be convicted of a crime
         involving dishonesty or fraud on his part in his relationship with the
         Company, all benefits which would otherwise by payable to him under the
         Plan shall be forfeited.

14.      The Plan shall be administered by the Personnel and Compensation
         Committee of the Board.

<PAGE>   3

15.      The Company shall have the right to deduct from each payment to be made
         under the Plan any required withholding taxes.

16.      In the event that a Recipient is unable to care for his affairs because
         of illness or accident, the Board may direct that any benefit payment
         due him, unless claim shall have been made therefor by a duly appointed
         legal representative, be paid to his spouse, a child, a parent or other
         blood relative, or to a person with whom he resides, and any such
         payment so made shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the
         Plan therefor.

17.      The Board reserves the right to modify or to amend, in whole or in
         part, or to terminate, this Plan at any time, provided however, that
         the Plan shall not be modified, amended or terminated during the
         24-month period beginning on the date of a Change in Control. However,
         no modification, amendment or termination of the Plan shall adversely
         affect the right of any Recipient to receive the benefits granted to
         him under the Plan before the date of modification, amendment or
         termination.

18.      Amounts, if any, contributed to the Plan by the Company shall be held
         in trust, but shall not be held for the separate account of any
         Recipient.

19.      The Plan shall be governed and construed by the laws of the State of
         Ohio.

                                   SCHEDULE A

A "Qualifying Termination" shall mean (i) a termination of the individual's
employment by the Company for any reason other than for "Cause" or "Disability"
(as defined below) during the "Protection Period" (as defined below), or (ii)
the individual's termination of employment for "Good Reason" (as defined below)
during the Protection Period.

         (a) Disability. If the individual is absent from duties with the
Company on a full-time basis for eighteen consecutive months due to a physical
or mental incapacity, and the individual has not returned to the full-time
performance of the individual's duties within thirty (30) days after written
Notice of Termination is given to the individual by the Company, such
termination shall be considered to be termination by the Company for
"Disability" for purposes of this Exhibit.

         (b) Cause. The Company may terminate the individual's employment for
Cause. For purposes of this Schedule only, the Company shall have "Cause" to
terminate the individual's employment hereunder only on the basis of (i) the
individual's fraud on, or misappropriation or embezzlement of assets of, the
Company that causes material harm to the Company or (ii) the individual's
willful and continued failure to substantially perform the individual's duties
hereunder (other than any such failure resulting from the individual's mental or
physical incapacity or mental illness or any such actual or anticipated failure
after the issuance of a Notice of Termination, as defined in Paragraph (d), by
the individual for Good Reason, as defined below); provided, however, that
"Cause" shall occur with respect to clause (ii) of this sentence only if such
action constituting Cause has not been corrected or cured by the individual
within 30 days after the individual has received written notice from the Company
of the Company's intent to terminate the individual's employment for Cause and
specifying in detail the basis for such termination. For purposes of this
Paragraph, no act, or failure to act, on the individual's part shall be
considered "willful" unless done, or omitted to be done, by the individual in
bad faith and without reasonable belief that the individual's action or omission
was in the best interests of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
individual shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and
until delivery to the individual of a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the
affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership of the
Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for the purpose (after
reasonable notice to the individual and an opportunity for the individual,
together with the individual's counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding
that in the good faith opinion of the Board the individual was guilty of conduct
set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of this Paragraph and specifying the particulars
thereof in detail.

         (c) Good Reason. The individual shall be entitled to terminate the
individual's employment for Good Reason at any time following a Change in
Control. For purposes of this Schedule, "Good Reason" shall exist in the event
of the occurrence of any of the following without the individual's express prior
written consent:

                  (i) any diminution of, or the assignment to the individual of
duties inconsistent with, the individual's position, duties, responsibilities
and status with the Company immediately prior to a Change in Control, an adverse
change in the individual's titles or offices as in effect immediately prior to a
Change in Control, or any removal of the individual from, or any failure to
reelect the individual to, any of such positions, except in connection with the
individual's termination of employment for
<PAGE>   5
Disability or Cause or as a result of the individual's death or by the
individual other than for Good Reason;

                  (ii) a reduction by the Company in the individual's base
salary as in effect on the date of a Change in Control or as the same may be
increased from time to time during the term of any agreement between the Company
and the individual;

                  (iii) the Company's failure to continue any benefit plan or
arrangement (including, without limitation, the Company's life insurance,
post-retirement benefits, and comprehensive medical plan coverage) in which the
individual participated at the time of a Change in Control (or any other plans
providing the individual with substantially similar benefits) (hereinafter
referred to as "Benefit Plans"), or any action by the Company that would
adversely affect the individual's participation in or materially reduce the
individual's benefits under any such Benefit Plan or deprive the individual of
any material fringe benefit enjoyed by the individual at the time of a Change in
Control;

                  (iv) the Company's failure to continue in effect, or continue
payments under, any incentive plan or arrangement (including, without
limitation, any equity-based plan or arrangement) in which the individual
participated at the time of a Change in Control (hereinafter referred to as
"Incentive Plans") or any action by the Company that would adversely affect the
individual's participation in any such Incentive Plans or reduce the
individual's benefits under any such Incentive Plans;

                  (v) a relocation of the Company's principal executive offices
to a location outside the Cincinnati, Ohio metropolitan area or relocation of
the individual's primary workplace to any place other than the location at which
the individual performed the individual's duties immediately prior to a Change
in Control;

                  (vi) the Company's failure to provide the individual with the
number of paid vacation days to which the individual was entitled at the time of
a Change in Control;

                  (vii) the Company's material breach of any provision of any
agreement between the Company and the individual regarding severance benefits
following a Change in Control;

                  (viii) the Company's purported termination of the individual
which is not effected pursuant to a Notice of Termination satisfying the
requirements of Paragraph (d);

         (d) Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of the individual
by the Company or by the individual shall be communicated by written Notice of
Termination to the other party in accordance with Paragraph (f) hereof. For
purposes of this Schedule, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a notice that
indicates the specific termination provision in this Schedule relied upon and
the facts, if any, supporting application of such provision.

         (e) Date of Termination: Dispute Concerning Termination. "Date of
Termination" shall mean (i) if the individual's employment is terminated for
Disability, thirty (30) days after Notice of Termination is given (provided that
the individual has not returned to the performance of the individual's duties on
a full-time basis during such thirty (30) day period) or (ii) if the
individual's employment is
<PAGE>   6
terminated by the Company for any reason other than Disability or by the
individual for any reason, the date specified in the Notice of Termination
(which, in the case of a termination by the Company shall not be less than
thirty (30) days, and in the case of a termination by the individual shall not
be more than sixty (60) days, respectively, from the date such Notice of
Termination is given); provided, however, that if the party receiving the Notice
of Termination notifies the other party within thirty (30) days after the date
such Notice of Termination is given that a dispute exists concerning the
termination, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the dispute is
finally resolved, either by mutual written agreement of the parties or by a
binding arbitration award referred to in Paragraph (g); and provided, further
that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if
such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice shall pursue
the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. The Company shall
continue the individual as a participant in the plan until the dispute is
finally resolved in accordance with this Schedule. For purposes of determining
whether any Qualifying Termination has occurred during the Protection Period,
the date a Notice of Termination is given pursuant to this Schedule shall be
deemed the date of the individual's Qualifying Termination.

         (f) Notice. For the purposes of this Schedule, notices and all other
communications provided for in the Schedule shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by United States
registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, as follows:

                  (i) if, to the individual, to the individual's current

agree to endeavor in good faith to resolve any dispute by mutual agreement. If
