          against Executive, nor, shall the amount of any payment or benefit
          provided for in this Section 3 be reduced by any compensation earned
          as a result of Executive's employment with another employer.

          (b) Any Other Termination. If Executive's employment is terminated
     during the Term of this Agreement for any reason other than as set forth in
     Section 3(a), neither Executive nor his estate shall be entitled to any
     severance payments or insurance benefits under this Agreement.

          (c) Covenants and Release. As a condition precedent to payment under
     this Agreement or payment of severance or grant of any other benefit
     hereunder, Executive must comply with, and continue to comply with, the
     Covenants and Terms attached hereto as Exhibit A, and sign and deliver a
     release to the Company within one week after the termination of Executive's
     employment in a form substantially in the form of General Release, attached
     hereto as Exhibit B.

                                       3

     4. Bridging for Purposes of Retirement Income Plan

If the Executive's employment is terminated without Cause and the Executive has
not attained age 55, the Executive's severance pay under this Agreement will be
paid in the form and amounts as if he had continued to be actively employed,
until the Executive attains age 55. If the severance pay is insufficient to be
paid in the full regular paychecks, the severance pay shall be prorated over the
period. If there is severance pay remaining when the Executive attains age 55,
the remaining balance shall then be paid in a lump sum to the Executive. This
arrangement will enable the Executive to elect the benefits of early retirement
on the 1st day of the month following his 55th birthday. Upon retirement, the
Executive will qualify for all retirement benefits then generally available to
retirees.

     5. Termination of Other Benefits and Agreements

          (a) The parties mutually terminate, and Executive hereby waives and
     releases any and all claims he or she has, either existing or to be earned
     in the future, relating to, any existing agreement Executive has with the
     Company or any of its affiliates, including without limitation that
     Employment Agreement dated January 1, 2002, relating to severance payments,
     payments upon a change-in-control, non-qualified or supplemental retirement
     benefits, letter of credit or pension benefits other than those available
     through the standard Nalco pension plans.

     6. Miscellaneous.

          (a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
     in accordance with the laws of Illinois without reference to the principles
     of conflict of laws.

          (b) Entire Agreement/Amendments. This Agreement contains the entire
     understanding of the parties with respect to the severance payable to
     Executive in the event of a termination of employment. There are no
     restrictions, agreements, promises, warranties, covenants or undertakings
     between the parties with respect to the subject matter herein other than
     those expressly set forth herein. This Agreement may not be altered,
     modified, or amended except by written instrument signed by the parties
     hereto.

          (c) No Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence
     to any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a
     waiver of such party's rights or deprive such party of the right thereafter
     to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this
     Agreement.

                                       4

          (d) Severability. If any one or more of the provisions of this
     Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
     respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
     provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

          (e) Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assignable by Executive
     and shall be assignable by the Company only with the consent of Executive;
     provided, however, that the Company shall require any successor to

     heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees of the parties.

          (g) Notice. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all other
     communications provided for in the Agreement shall be in writing and shall
     be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by United States
     certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the
     respective addresses set forth on the execution page of this Agreement,

     the Company, or to such other address as either party may have furnished to
     the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notice of change
     of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

          (h) Withholding Taxes. The Company may withhold from any amounts

     Executive's employment.
