​
Dear Francesca,
​
We are pleased to confirm a change in your Change of Control benefit under your employment contract with Trinseo PLC or its affiliate.  Basically, the change increases the severance amount from 18 months to 24 months provided all other conditions of this benefit are met.  More particularly, please note that the double trigger elements both still apply.
​
A side-by-side comparison of the change is provided below:
​
	Current Change in Control Severance - Section 7(d)
	New Change in Control Severance - Section 7(d)

	(i)          This Section 7(d) shall apply if the Executive's employment by the Company is terminated (x) by the Company other than for Cause, or (y) by the Executive for good reason as defined in art. 340c para 2 CO, in either case, during the two (2)-year period commencing upon a Change in Control. Subject to the Executive's not engaging in a Material Covenant Violation or a Material Cooperation Violation, upon a termination described in the preceding sentence, the Executive shall receive the benefits set forth in Section 7(c) hereof, except that in lieu of receiving the Severance Amount in installments as contemplated under Section 7(c)(ii) hereof, the Executive shall receive a lump sum payment equal to the Severance Amount on the date of such termination.
