 DESCRIPTION OF 
 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT
AWARD 
 GRANTED UNDER THE 
 OLIN 2003 LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 
  

	1.	Terms 

  
 The terms and conditions of these Restricted Stock Units are contained in the Award Certificate evidencing the grant of such Award, this Award Description and in the Olin 2003 Long Term Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”). 
  

	2.	Definitions 

  
 “Vesting Date” means with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit, the date on which you become entitled to receive the shares underlying the Restricted Stock Unit, as set forth in your Award Certificate.

  
 Other capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the
meanings specified in the Plan. 
  

	3.	Vesting and Payment 

  

	 	(a)	Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in this Award Description, your interest in the Restricted Stock Units awarded to you will vest only at the close of business on the
Vesting Date for such Restricted Stock Units, if you are employed by Olin from the grant date through the Vesting Date. Each Restricted Stock Unit not vested shall be forfeited. 

  

	 	(b)	Each vested Restricted Stock Unit shall be payable by delivery of one share of Olin Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in the Plan), except as otherwise provided in the
Plan. 

  

	 	(c)	Each outstanding Restricted Stock Unit shall accrue Dividend Equivalents (amounts equivalent to the cash dividends payable in cash), deferred in the form of cash. Such Dividend
Equivalents shall be paid only when and if the Restricted Stock Unit on which such Dividend Equivalents were accrued vests. Dividend Equivalents will accrue interest at an annual rate equal to Olin’s before tax cost of borrowing as determined
from time to time by the Chief Financial Officer, the Treasurer or the Controller of the Company (or in the event there is no such borrowing, the Federal Reserve A1/P1 Composite rate for 90 day commercial paper plus 10 basis points, as determined by
any such officer) or such other rate as determined from time to time by the Board or the Committee, compounded quarterly, from the date accrued to the earlier of the date paid or forfeiture. To the extent a Restricted Stock Unit does not vest or is
otherwise forfeited, any accrued and unpaid Dividend Equivalents (and any interest on such Dividend Equivalents) shall be forfeited. 

	 	(d)	The total number of vested Restricted Stock Units (and Dividend Equivalents and related interest) at the end of a calendar year shall be paid on or before March 15 of the following
year, except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan. 

  

	 	(e)	Restricted Stock Units shall carry no voting rights nor, except as specifically provided herein, be entitled to receive any dividends or other rights enjoyed by shareholders.

  

	4.	Termination of Employment 

  

	 	(a)	Any Restricted Stock Units not yet vested shall be forfeited if your employment terminates either for cause or without Olin’s written consent. If your employment should
terminate before the applicable Vesting Date without cause and with Olin’s written consent or by virtue of your death or total disability or retirement under an Olin benefit plan, the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, which
outstanding Restricted Stock Units not yet vested (including Dividend Equivalents and related interest), if any, shall not be forfeited provided that you are not a Section 16 officer or director of Olin when your employment terminates, the Chief
Executive Officer of Olin shall be authorized to make such determination. 

  

	 	(b)	With respect to any non-forfeited Restricted Stock Units (and Dividend Equivalents and related interest) of a terminated Participant relating to incomplete Vesting Period, you will
receive shares in payment of such Restricted Stock Units (and related Dividend Equivalents and interest, if any) as soon as practicable, subject to the provisions of the Plan. 

  

	5.	Tax Withholding 

  
 Olin will withhold from the payout of the Restricted Stock Units (and related Dividend Equivalents) the amount necessary to satisfy your federal, state
and local withholding tax requirements. 
  

	6.	Miscellaneous 

  
 By accepting the Award of Restricted Stock Units, you agree that such Award is special compensation, and that any amount paid will not affect 

 

	 	(a)	The amount of any pension under any pension or retirement plan in which you participate as an employee of Olin, 

  

	 	(b)	The amount of coverage under any group life insurance plan in which you participate as an employee of Olin, or 

  

 2 

	 	(c)	The benefits under any other benefit plan or any kind heretofore or hereafter in effect, under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to compensation.

  

	 	(d)	It is the intention of Olin and the Participant that all income tax liability on Restricted Stock Units be deferred in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for nonqualified deferred compensation plans, until the Participant actually receives such payment. To the extent Section 409A applies to this award, this award and the Plan shall be deemed amended to
comply with Section 409A to the extent permitted by law and the Restricted Stock Units award shall be construed in favor of meeting the requirements for deferral of compensation under Section 409A.

	4.	Vesting and Forfeiture 

  

	 	a.	Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, the 2003 LTIP, this Program or the Performance Share Award certificate, an interest in a Performance Share Award shall vest only if
the Participant is an employee of the Company or a subsidiary on the last day of the relevant Performance Cycle. 

  

	 	b.	If a Participant’s employment with the Company or a subsidiary terminates for cause or without the Company’s consent (other than as the result of the Participant’s

	 	c.	If a Participant’s employment with the Company or a subsidiary terminates as the result of his or her disability, (as that term is defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code or
any successor provision), or retirement under any of the Company’s retirement plans before a Performance Share Award has vested, the Participant shall be entitled to a pro rata Performance Share Award, payable solely in cash at the time that
the Performance Share Award would otherwise be payable under Section 5. The cash payment shall be equal to the Final Share Number calculated in accordance with Sections 3 and 5 of this Program, multiplied by the Fair Market Value on the last day of
the relevant Performance Cycle, multiplied by a fraction with a numerator equal to the number of months during the Performance Cycle the Participant was employed by the Company or a subsidiary (rounded up to the nearest whole month) and a
denominator of 36.

Chief Executive Officer, any Vice President or the Vice President, Human Resources, in the case of any non-officer employee.

	5.	Payment 

  

	 	a.	Within fifteen (15) days after the determination of the Final Share Number, the Company will (i) issue to each Participant a number of shares of the Common Stock equal to one-half
of the Final Share Number, rounded down to the nearest whole share if such number is not a whole number, and (ii) pay the Participant an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of one-half of the Final Share Number of shares of Common Stock on the
last day of the Performance Cycle, rounded up to the nearest whole share if such number is not a whole number. 

  

	 	b.	No dividends or dividend equivalents shall be paid on any Performance Shares or Senior Performance Shares. 

  

	6.	Deferral 

  
 A Participant may elect to defer payment of shares of Common Stock or cash pursuant to this Program in accordance with the terms of the Olin Corporation
