 Exhibit 10.5 

INNOSPEC INC. 2014 

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 

1. Purpose. The purpose of the Innospec Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to retain and motivate
certain key employees of Innospec Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) or its Subsidiaries through the grant of a Cash Incentive Award (as defined below) on the terms set forth herein. The Plan covers a three-year
performance period beginning January 1, 2014 and ending on December 31, 2016 (the “Performance Period”) with the actual amount of the Cash Incentive Award payable to each eligible employee determined based on the
achievement of specified performance measures and subject to the terms of the Plan as described below. Capitalized words and phrases not otherwise defined in the body of the Plan are defined pursuant to Section 11 of the Plan. 

2. Grant of Cash Incentive Awards. Effective as of the Grant Date, each person who has received a Grant Letter which notified such
person of his or her grant of a Cash Incentive Award pursuant to the Plan and specified the Maximum Bonus Amount for such person shall be a “Participant” in the Plan. The list of participation levels available to Participants
granted a Cash Incentive Award are specified in Exhibit A. On or after the Grant Date but prior to December 31, 2014, the Committee may grant Cash Incentive Awards to additional Participants pursuant to a Grant Agreement with such award
subject to the terms of the Plan and any additional terms specified in the Grant Agreement and with a Maximum Bonus Amount set forth in such Grant Agreement. 

3. Distribution. On the Distribution Date, a Participant who remains in Good Standing shall be entitled to a single lump sum payment
for his or her Cash Incentive Award (to the extent not previously forfeited) in an amount (the “Distribution Payment”) equal to the total of (a) the Relative Share Price Portion plus (b) the Earnings Per Share Portion plus
(c) the Operating Income for Acquisition Business Portion all as determined pursuant to Exhibit B; provided, however, that in the event that a Change in Control occurs prior to the last day of the Performance Period, each Participant
shall become entitled to a payment on the thirty-day anniversary of such Change in Control in an amount equal the Maximum Bonus Amount for each Participant (to the extent not previously forfeited). For a Participant who was absent from work due to a
Leave of Absence, such Participant shall only be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to his or her Distribution Payment as determined pursuant to the previous sentence further multiplied by the Leave of Absence Fraction. Upon payment of the
Distribution Payment, if any, pursuant to this Section 3, all Cash Incentive Awards (which have not previously been forfeited or cancelled) shall be cancelled. 

4. Termination of Employment Prior to Distribution Date. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4 or as otherwise determined
by the Committee, if the Participant’s Termination Date occurs for any reason prior to the Distribution Date and prior to a Change in Control or if the Participant fails to meet the requirements of Good Standing as of any date prior to the
Distribution Date and prior to a Change in Control or if the Participant is under notice of termination, is on garden leave or has given notice of resignation prior to the Distribution Date and prior to a Change in Control, the Participant’s
Cash Incentive Award shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled. If the Participant’s Termination Date occurs prior to the Distribution Date and prior to a Change in Control and if the Participant is a Good Leaver, then, to the extent
determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, the Participant shall be entitled to receive a payment of the Cash Incentive Award in a single lump-sum payment no later than the sixty-day anniversary of such Termination Date with the amount of
the Distribution Payment, if any, determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion; provided, however, that in the event that the Cash Incentive Award held by a terminated Participant is intended to constitute Performance-Based
Compensation, the Compensation Committee shall determine amount of the Distribution Payment that would have been earned based on the satisfaction of performance goals in Exhibit B determined as if the Performance Period ended as of the last
day of the calendar year during which the Termination Date for such Participant occurs and, for the Relative Share Price Portion, determined using the average price during the last quarter of the year of such termination, for the Earnings Per Share
Portion, determined based on the satisfaction of the Earnings Per Share Stretch Target for the year of such termination (which was used by the Committee in determining the appropriate Earning Per Share Stretch Target for 2016 for purposes of this
Plan), and for the Operating Income for Acquisition Business Portion, determined based on the satisfaction of the Combined Target EBIT for the three acquired companies for the year of such termination (which was used by the Committee in determining
the appropriate Combined Target EBIT for 2016 for purposes of this Plan) and the payment of the Distribution Payment shall be made no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year of the Termination Date. Upon payment of
the Distribution Payment, if any, pursuant to this Section 4, all Cash Incentive Awards (which have not previously been forfeited or cancelled) shall be cancelled.

 5. Restrictions on Transfer. No Cash Incentive Award (whether vested or unvested) or any
other right under the Plan may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or otherwise encumbered or disposed of to any third party other than the Company except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. 

6. Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in the Plan, all notices, requests or consents provided for or required to be
given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be duly given if personally delivered or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, or nationally recognized overnight delivery service with proof of receipt maintained, if to the
Company, at its principal office and, if to a Participant, at the last known address for the Participant on the Company’s records (or such address as the Company or Participant, may designate in writing). Any such notice shall, if delivered
personally, be deemed received upon delivery; shall, if delivered by certified mail, be deemed received upon the earlier of actual receipt thereof or five days after the date of deposit in the United States mail, as the case may be; and shall, if
delivered by nationally recognized overnight delivery service, be deemed received upon the first business day after the date of deposit with the delivery service. The Company or a Participant, as applicable, may waive any required notice by written
waiver. 
 7. Miscellaneous. 
  

	 	(a)	No Implied Rights. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall, by reason of participation in the Plan, acquire any right in or title to any assets, funds or property of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries whatsoever, including, without limitation, any specific funds, assets, or other property which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in their sole discretion, may set aside in anticipation of a liability under the Plan. A Participant
(or his estate) shall have only a contractual right to a Distribution Payment, if any, under the Plan, unsecured by any assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guarantee that the assets
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be sufficient to pay any benefits to any person. The grant and holding of a Cash Incentive Award shall not represent the grant or holding of an ownership interest in the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries. 

  
 2 

	 	(b)	No Rights to Continued Employment. Neither the Plan nor any action taken or omitted to be taken hereunder shall be deemed to create or confer on any Participant any right to be retained in the employ of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or to interfere with or to limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate the employment of any Participant at any time. 

 

	 	(c)	Restrictions on Distributions. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to make any distribution of benefits under the Plan unless such distribution complies with all
applicable laws; provided, however, that if the restriction set forth in this Section becomes operative, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to restructure the form or manner of such distribution of benefits so that it is
complaint with applicable law. 

  

	 	(d)	Successors. The Plan shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Company and its successors and assigns, and upon any person acquiring, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase of assets or
otherwise, all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and business. 

  

	 	(e)	Severability. Each provision of the Plan shall be considered severable and, if for any reason any provision or provisions herein is determined to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal under any existing or future
law, such invalidity, unenforceability or illegality shall not impair the operation of or affect those portions of the Plan which are valid, enforceable and legal. 

 

	 	(f)	Tax Withholding. The grant, vesting, and distribution with respect to Cash Incentive Awards under the Plan are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall have the right
to deduct from all cash distributions made pursuant to the Plan any federal, state or local taxes required to be withheld with respect to such distributions. In no event whatsoever shall the Company or any Subsidiary be liable for any taxes,
penalties or interest that may be imposed on a Participant under Section 409A of the Code or under any other similar provision of state tax law in connection with such Participant’s participation in the Plan or otherwise. By agreeing to
participate in the Plan, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that he or she shall be liable for all taxes imposed on him or her as a result of participation in the Plan and in relation to payments received pursuant to the Plan, including, but
not limited to, Section 409A of the Code and any other similar provision of state tax law. 

  
 3 

	 	(g)	No Restriction on Right of Company to Effect Corporate Changes. Neither the Plan nor the grant of a Cash Incentive Award hereunder shall affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to
make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business. 

  

	 	(h)	Governing Law. For Participants whose primary place of employment for the Company as of the Grant Date is in the United States, the Plan shall be governed by, and construed under, the laws of the State of
Delaware (without regard to conflict of laws or principles), all rights and remedies being governed by such laws. For Participants whose primary place of employment for the Company as of the Grant Date is in the United Kingdom, the Plan shall be
governed by, and construed under, English law, all rights and remedies being governed by such laws. For all other participants, the Plan shall be governed by, and construed under, the laws of the country where the Participant’s primary place of
employment is located determined as of the Grant Date for such Participant. 

  

	 	(i)	Exhibits Incorporated Into Plan. Any Exhibit to the Plan is incorporated into and forms part of the Plan. 

8. Administration of the Plan. The authority to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan shall be vested in the
Committee in accordance with this Section 8. 
  

	 	(a)	Authority of the Committee. The Committee’s administration of the Plan shall be subject to the following:

for the administration of the Plan. 

  

	 	(ii)	Any interpretation of the Plan by the Committee and any decision made by it under the Plan shall be final and binding on all persons. 

 

	 	(iii)	The Committee will have the authority and the discretion to determine the Distribution Payment amount pursuant to Sections 3 and 4. No participant shall be entitled to a Distribution Payment until the Committee has
certified in writing the satisfaction of the applicable performance goals in Exhibits B, C and D. 

  

	 	(iv)	The Committee shall take such actions as it determines to be necessary or appropriate with respect to the Plan, and the Cash Incentive Awards granted under the Plan, to avoid acceleration of income recognition or the
imposition of taxes under Section 409A of the Code. 

  

	 	(v)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no benefit shall be distributed under the Plan unless the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines that such person is entitled to benefits under the Plan as
determined in good faith by the Committee in accordance with the terms of the Plan and applicable law, and the Committee retains the discretion to reduce or eliminate a Participant’s right to receive Distribution Payment at any time and for any
reason prior to the date that such payment is made to a Participant. 

  
 4 

	 	(b)	Delegation by Committee. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, the Committee may allocate all or any portion of its responsibilities and powers to any one or more of its members and may delegate all
or any part of its responsibilities and powers to any person or persons selected by it, in any case other than Participants in the Plan. Any such allocation or delegation may be revoked by the Committee at any time. 

9. Amendment and Termination. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee may at any time terminate or amend, modify
or suspend the Plan in whole or in part. The Committee may also, without the consent of any Participant, make such amendments or modifications to the Plan or any outstanding Cash Incentive Award as the Committee determines are reasonably necessary
in order for the Plan or such Cash Incentive Award to (a) comply with, or avoid being subject to, Sections 409A of the Code and (b) comply with, or take into account changes in, applicable tax laws, accounting rules and other applicable
laws, rules and regulations. 
 10. Section 409A of the Code. This Plan and the payments made pursuant to this Plan are intended
to be interpreted and operated to the fullest extent possible so that the payments and benefits under this Plan shall be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. It is intended that the Distribution Payment will in any event be
paid pursuant to the terms of this Plan to each Participant who is a US Taxpayer within the period necessary to satisfy the exemption from Section 409A of the Code for short-term deferrals set forth in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(4)(i) (which
