	 	EMPLOYER:	            The Associated Octel Company Limited 

  

	 	EMPLOYEE:	            Andrew Hartley 

  

	2.	Your Job Title is:       Vice President and General Counsel 

  

	3.	Your Normal Place of Work will be:        Global House, Manchester 

  

	  	You will initially be employed at our Global House, Manchester site, but as a term of your employment you may also be required to work at or from any other of the Company’s
establishments. You may also be transferred or seconded between establishments when necessary as required by business needs. Whilst your Contract of Employment provides for such transfer or secondment the Company will give careful and sympathetic
consideration to your personal circumstances and career interests. 

  

	4.	REMUNERATION 

  

	 	i)	Your basic salary will be £90,000 per annum paid monthly in advance by credit transfer. This will be reviewed on 1st March 2006 and every March thereafter.

  

	 	ii)	You will be entitled to participate in the Senior Management Bonus Plan. In your case, the target pay-out would be 30% and up to 45% of basic salary, subject to Company and personal
performance. The Plan normally runs from 1st January to 31st December. 

  

	5.	HOURS OF WORK 

  

	  	The normal hours of work are 38 hours per week exclusive of lunch breaks. 

  

	  	The Company reserves the right to vary starting and finishing times either on a temporary or continuous basis. Any permanent departure from the normal working week will be notified
in writing. However, irregular variations in working hours undertaken in response to operational needs will not be formally notified. 

  

	  	For senior managers, it is recognised that the nature of their roles will involve occasionally working extended hours, either during the working week or at weekends. This is
accepted as a normal part of the working life of a global business and does not warrant either extra payment or time off in lieu. Where a specific business reason requires working on a public holiday, time off in lieu on a day to day basis may be
granted by a member of the Octel Management Board. 

  

	6.	COMPANY CAR 

  

	  	You will be provided with a fully expensed Company car, including private fuel. You may take a cash equivalent in lieu of a car. Currently the allowance is £8,850 per annum.
Will you please advise Karen Magaharan in Human Resources of your preferred option. 

  

	7.	HOLIDAYS 

  

	  	For a full year your holiday entitlement is 25 days per annum. The holiday year runs from 1st March to the last day in February the following year. Should you start after the
1st March your first holiday entitlement will be calculated on a pro rata basis. 

  

 2 

 Service Related Holidays 

	  	You shall be entitled to additional holiday entitlement dependent upon completed years of continuous service with the Company on the last day of February prior to the holiday year

	 Completed Years’ Service

	  	Additional Holidays

	  	1 day
	               15
	  	1 day

  

	  	You must arrange the timing of your holidays with your manager so that adequate manning cover can be maintained. The minimum holiday that may be taken at any time shall normally be
one full day. However, you may be permitted to take up to 10 half day holidays in any year, or to depart from the normal pattern of holidays described above, provided your manager is satisfied that such arrangement is in no way detrimental to
operational needs or to the reasonable opportunity for other staff to take a holiday. 

  

	  	The Company may, if necessary, nominate up to 1 day out of each year’s entitlement when holiday must be taken. This may be on a general or departmental basis and advance notice
will be given wherever possible. Any holiday entitlement outstanding at the end of the holiday year will normally be forfeited. However, in exceptional circumstances approval to carry over part (5 days maximum) of the entitlement from one holiday
year to the next may be granted by the appropriate CEOCOM Member, on the recommendation of the Department Manager and HR Department. During the months of January and February each year, staff may bring forward up to 5 days entitlement from the
ensuing holiday year, by agreement with their manager. 

  

	8.	NOTICE 

  

	  	The Company has the right to terminate your employment by giving you twelve months notice in writing. This will not apply in the event of gross misconduct. You are required to give
the Company six months notice in writing of termination of employment. Written notice of termination addressed to your manager, may be given on any day and will begin from the start of the following day. Failure to give proper notice constitutes a
breach of contractual obligations. 

  

	  	The Company will normally require dismissed employees to terminate forthwith. 

  

	  	Should the need arise for redundancies to be declared, the Company reserves the right to implement a system for selection based upon principles other than ‘last-in,
first-out’. 

  

	9.	HEALTHCARE BENEFITS 

  

	  	You will be entitled to the following healthcare benefits: 

  
 Group Accident Insurance

of 3% (up to age 35) and 5% (over the age of 35), dependent on Inland Revenue limits. 

  

	  	Category 2: Contributions of 3% of basic salary from employees and 3% from the Company. 

  

	  	In recognition of your seniority, the Company will also make an extra 5% payment into the Plan. 

  

	13.	INVENTIONS 

  

	  	If at any time whilst employed by the Company a member of staff should invent, discover or devise individually or jointly with another person(s) any invention, design or improvement
(collectively called ‘the invention’), then the Company’s and Employee’s rights to such invention(s) are governed by current patent legislation. 

  

	  	The legislation provides for employee inventions whether patentable or not, made in the course of an individual’s normal duties to belong to the Company. In such cases the
employee must promptly disclose the invention to the Company. Inventions not connected with an employee’s work or duties belong exclusively to the employee. A further provision generally entitles employees to compensation when an invention they
have made and which belongs to the Company is patented and that patent is of outstanding benefit to the Company. 

  

	  	The Company’s Patents Committee, in reviewing the particulars of employees’ inventions, will take due account of the statutory provisions relating to inventions, Patents
and Trade Marks. If you need further guidance on this section please consult your manager. 

  

	14.	SECRECY

                                 (the “Optionee”), pursuant to the
Company’s 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). The Company and the Optionee agree as follows: 
  
 1. Option Grant: The Company hereby grants to the Optionee on the terms and conditions of this Agreement the right and the option (the
“Option”) to purchase all or any of

                                ,

to time to purchase the Grant Shares as follows: 
  
 The Option shall become exercisable for 1/36th of the Grant Shares at the end of each one-month period, so
that the Option will be fully exercisable on the third anniversary of the Grant Date. 
  
 3. Expiration: The Option shall continue in effect until the earlier of the date ten years after the Grant Date, or the date thirty days after the Optionee’s service with the Company terminates (other than
by reason of death or disability), unless earlier terminated as provided in the Plan.
