February 5, 1999, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated as of March 11, 2004, Amendment No. 2
thereto dated as of June 9, 2004, and by Amendment No. 3 thereto dated as of October 1, 2007,

desire to further amend the Rights Agreement as set forth below;



NOW, THEREFORE, the Rights Agreement is hereby amended as follows:




	 	1.	 	Amendment of Section 1.





Section 1 of the Rights Agreement is hereby amended to add the following new definition:



“Securities Purchase Agreement” shall mean the Securities Purchase Agreement to be entered
into on or about October 2, 2007, by and among Ohio Plastics, LLC and Glencore Finance AG.




	 	2.	 	Addition of new Section 35.





The Rights Agreement is amended by adding thereto a new Section 35 thereof to read in its
entirety as follows:



“Section 35. Exception for Securities Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of the
Rights Agreement to the contrary, a Distribution Date shall not be deemed to have occurred, none of
the transactions, events or rights under Section 11 of this Rights Agreement shall become
applicable or be triggered, none of Ohio Plastics, LLC or any of its Affiliates or Associates shall
be constituted or deemed to be or have become an Acquiring Person, and no holder of any Rights
shall be entitled to exercise such Rights under or be entitled to any rights pursuant to this
Agreement, including, without limitation, to any of Sections 3, 7 or 11 of this Rights Agreement,
in all such cases by reason or as a consequence of the approval, execution, delivery, announcement,
pendency of, or consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by, the Securities Purchase
Agreement.”




	 	3.	 	Compliance.





By its execution and delivery hereof, the Company states that this Amendment is in compliance
with the terms of Section 26 of the Rights Agreement and directs the Rights Agent to execute this
Amendment.




	 	4.	 	Effectiveness.





This Amendment shall be effective upon its execution by both parties hereto. Except as
expressly amended hereby, this Rights Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall
otherwise be unaffected hereby. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, the term “Rights
Agreement” as used in the Rights Agreement shall refer to this Rights Agreement as amended hereby.




	 	5.	 	Miscellaneous.





This Amendment No. 4 shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of
Delaware and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
such state applicable to contracts to be made and performed entirely within such state. This
Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be
deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Amendment is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction or other public or governmental authority to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Amendment
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.
