 PAYMENT OF BENEFITS 
 3.1 Payment to Participant. (Effective
November 27, 1995) 
 (a) Each Participant who terminates employment with the Company and its related corporations shall receive payment of
his supplemental pension benefit under the Plan determined as of his date of termination of employment in the standard form of benefit of a monthly retirement benefit commencing within 30 days following employment termination and payable to such
Participant for his lifetime following such employment termination, with the continuance to his Beneficiary of such amount after his death for the remainder, if any, of the 120-month term that commenced with the date as of which the first payment of
such monthly benefit is made, and with any such monthly benefits remaining unpaid upon the death of the survivor of the Participant and his Beneficiary to be made to the estate of such survivor. 
 (b) Participants may instead elect within a 60 day period commencing 90 days prior to employment termination to receive the actuarial equivalent of the
standard form of benefit determined under paragraph (a), on the date of employment termination, in accordance with any one of the following options: 
 (i) for Participants hired prior to February 1, 1984, a single lump-sum payment payable within 30 days following employment termination; 
 (ii) effective October 1, 2000, for Participants hired prior to February 1, 1984, a single lump-sum payment payable within 30 days following the end of the calendar year in which the Participant’s employment terminated.
Interest on the lump-sum deferral shall accrue and be paid with the lump-sum; such interest to be computed at the applicable interest rate, as defined in Section 417(e)(3)(A)(ii)(II) of the Code, in effect on the date of the employment
termination. 
 (iii) a reduced monthly retirement benefit commencing within 30 days following employment termination and payable to such
Participant for his lifetime following such employment termination, with the continuance of a monthly benefit equal to fifty percent (50%) of such reduced amount after his death to the Participant’s Beneficiary during the lifetime of the
Beneficiary, provided that such Beneficiary is living at the time of such Participant’s employment termination and survives such Participant; 
 (iv) a reduced monthly retirement benefit commencing within 30 days following employment termination and payable to such Participant during his lifetime following his termination, with the continuance of a monthly benefit equal to one
hundred percent (100%) of such reduced amount after his death to the Participant’s Beneficiary during the lifetime of the Beneficiary, provided such Beneficiary is living at the time of such Participant’s termination and survives such
Participant. 

 Such optional forms of payment described above shall be calculated using the same actuarial factors and
interest rates used under The Lubrizol Corporation Pension Plan (or its successor) as in effect on the date of employment termination; provided, however, that for any person who was a Participant as of December 31, 1993, who elects to have his
supplemental pension benefit paid in a single lump-sum payment, the interest rate used to discount the portion of the Participant’s supplemental pension benefit which represents his accrued benefit as of December 31, 1993, shall be the
arithmetic average of the 7-day compound yield rates for the six full calendar months prior to the month of termination as published in Donoghue’s Tax-Free MONEY FUND AVERAGE which is reported weekly in Barron’s; provided further that such
rate with respect to any month shall be the rate reported in the first issue of Barron’s published during such month. 
 Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of the Plan to the contrary, if the present actuarial value of any retirement benefit or survivor benefit under the Plan to any person, determined as described above, is less than $25,000, such benefit shall be paid in a
single lump-sum payment to such person within 30 days following employment termination. 
 3.2 Payment in the Event of Death Prior to
Commencement of Distribution. If a Participant dies prior to commencement of benefits under the Plan, his surviving spouse, if any, shall be eligible for a survivor benefit which is equal to one-half of the reduced monthly benefit the Participant
would have received under the Plan if the Participant had retired on the day before his death and had elected to receive his benefit under the Lubrizol Pension Plan in a 50 percent joint and survivor annuity form. In making the determinations and
reductions required in this Section 3.2, the Company shall apply the assumptions then in use under the Lubrizol Pension Plan. For purposes hereof, a surviving spouse shall only be eligible for a benefit under this Section 3.2, if such
spouse had been married to the deceased Participant for at least one year as of the date of the Participant’s death. 
 3.3 Special Form of
Benefit for E. Victor Luoma. Notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 3.1, E. Victor Luoma may elect prior to his retirement or other termination of employment to receive payment of his supplemental pension benefit under the Plan in the
form of a single sum amount, determined and payable in accordance with the second and third sentences of Section 3.1. 
 3.4 Lump Sum Form
of Benefit for Roger Y. K. Hsu. Effective January 1, 1996, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1(b), Roger Y. K. Hsu shall receive payment of his supplemental pension benefit under the Plan in the form of a single sum amount.

within a reasonable period of time, but not later than 90 days after the receipt of the claim by the Plan, unless the Company determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim. If the Company determines that
special circumstances require an extension of time for processing is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the Claimant prior to the termination of the initial 90-day period. In no event shall such extension exceed a period
of 90 days from the end of such initial period. The extension notice shall indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Plan expects to render the benefit determination. Whenever the Company decides for
whatever reason to deny, whether in whole or in part, a claim for benefits

 
filed by any Claimant, the Company shall transmit to the Claimant a written notice of the Company’s decision, which shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant
and contain a statement of the specific reasons for the denial of the claim, reference to the specific Plan provisions on which the determination was based, a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to
perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary, a description of the Plan’s review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures, include a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring
civil action under Section 502(a) ERISA following an adverse benefit determination on review. Within 60 days of the date on which the Claimant receives such notice, he or his authorized representative may request that the claim denial be
reviewed by filing with the Company a written request therefor, which request shall contain the following information: 
 (a) the date on which
the Claimant’s request was filed with the Company; provided, however, that the date on which the Claimant’s request for review was in fact filed with the Company shall control in the event that the date of the actual filing is later than
the date stated by the Claimant pursuant to this paragraph (a); 
 (b) the specific portions of the denial of his claim which the Claimant
requests the Company to review; 
 (c) a statement by the Claimant setting forth the basis upon which he believes the Company should reverse the
Company’s previous denial of his claim for benefits and accept his claim as made; and 
 (d) any written comments, documents, records and
other information which the Claimant desires the Company to examine in its consideration of his position as stated pursuant to paragraph (c). 
 Claimant shall be provided, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to the Claimant’s claim for benefits. The review of the claim will take into
account all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the Claimant relating to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. Within no later than 60 days
of the date determined pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 4.2, the Company shall notify Claimant of the Plan’s benefit determination, unless the Company determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for
processing the claim. If the Company determines that an extension of time for processing is required, written notice of the extension will be furnished to the Claimant prior to the termination of the initial 60-day period. In no event shall such
extension exceed a period of 60 days from the end of the initial period. The extension notice shall indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Plan expects to render the determination on review. The
Company shall provide the Claimant with a written notification of the Plan’s benefit determination on review, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, including the reasons and Plan provisions upon which its decision was
based, a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the Claimant’s claim for benefits, and a statement of
the Claimant’s right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of ERISA. 

 ARTICLE V 
 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 
 (a) Company reserves the right to amend or
terminate the Plan in whole or in part at any time and to suspend operation of the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time, by resolution or written action of its Board of Directors or by action of a committee to which such authority has been
delegated by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that no amendment shall result in the forfeiture or reduction of the interest of any Participant or person claiming under or through any one or more of them pursuant to the Plan. Any amendment
of the Plan shall be in writing and signed by authorized individuals. 
 (b) Effective December 31, 2004, this Plan is terminated with
respect to further Supplemental Company Contributions. Benefits which have accrued hereunder as of December 31, 2004 shall continue to be administered under the terms and provisions of this Plan. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 6.1 Non-Alienation of Retirement Rights or Benefits. No Participant shall encumber or dispose of his right to
receive any payments hereunder, which payments or the right thereto are expressly declared to be non-assignable and non-transferable. If a Participant or Beneficiary attempts to assign, transfer, alienate or encumber his right to receive any payment
under the Plan or permits the same to be subject to alienation, garnishment, attachment, execution, or levy of any kind, then thereafter during the life of such Participant or Beneficiary and also during any period in which any Participant or
Beneficiary is incapable in the judgment of the Company of attending to his financial affairs, any payments which the Company is required to make hereunder may be made, in the discretion of the Company, directly to such Participant or Beneficiary or
to any other person for his use or benefit or that of his dependents, if any, including any person furnishing goods or services to or for his use or benefit or the use or benefit of his dependents, if any. Each such payment may be made without the
intervention of a guardian, the receipt of the payee shall constitute a complete acquittance to the Company with respect thereto, and the Company shall have no responsibility for the proper allocation thereof. 
 6.2 Plan Non-Contractual. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a commitment or agreement on the part of any person employed by the Company to
continue his employment with the Company, and nothing herein contained shall be construed as a commitment on the part of the Company to continue the employment or the annual rate of compensation of any such person for any period, and all
Participants shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Plan had never been established. 
 6.3 Trust. In order to provide a
source of payment for its obligations under the Plan, the Company has established The Lubrizol Corporation Excess Defined Contribution Plan Trust. 
 6.4 Interest of a Participant. Subject to the provisions of the Trust Agreement, the obligation of the Company under the Plan to provide a Participant or Beneficiary with supplemental retirement benefits merely constitutes the unsecured
promise of the Company to make payments as provided herein, and no person shall have any interest in, or a lien or prior claim upon, any property of the Company. 

 6.5 Controlling Status. No Participant shall be eligible for a benefit under the Plan unless such
Participant is a Participant on the date of his retirement, death, or other termination of employment. 
 6.6 Claims of Other Persons. The
provisions of the Plan shall in no event be construed as giving any person, firm or corporation any legal or equitable right as against the Company, its officers, employees, or directors, except any such rights as are specifically provided for in
the Plan or are hereafter created in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Plan. 
 6.7 Severability. The invalidity or
unenforceability of any particular provision of the Plan shall not affect any other provision hereof, and the Plan shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted herefrom. 
 6.8 Governing Law. The provisions of the Plan shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio.
