 Exhibit 10(nnn) 
 SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE 
 This Settlement Agreement and Release
(“Agreement”) is made between Quaker Chemical Corporation and SB Decking, Inc. on the one hand, and Hartford Accident & Indemnity Company (“Hartford A&I”) on the other hand. Collectively, Quaker Chemical Corporation,
SB Decking, Inc. and Hartford A&I are referred to as the “Parties”. 
 RECITALS 
 WHEREAS, Hartford A&I issued or is alleged to have issued certain insurance policies to SB Decking, Inc. (the “Policies,” as more fully
defined below); and 
 WHEREAS, SB Decking, Inc. has been named as a defendant in numerous actions involving Asbestos Claims (as defined
below), and it anticipates that it will be named in additional Asbestos Claims in the future; and 
 WHEREAS, SB Decking, Inc. has made
certain requests to Hartford A&I for insurance coverage in connection with Asbestos Claims under the Policies; and 
 WHEREAS, for many
years, under a reservation of rights, Hartford A&I has provided a defense and paid indemnity under the Policies for Asbestos Claims; and 
 WHEREAS, SB Decking, Inc. and Hartford A&I disagree over the extent to which the Policies afford coverage for Asbestos Claims (the “Coverage Disputes”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Parties, without admitting in any way the validity of the positions or arguments advanced by the other side, now find it in their respective
best interests to settle, resolve and compromise their Coverage Disputes and other coverage disputes amicably and to provide for the releases contained herein; and 

 WHEREAS, this Agreement represents a good faith compromise of the Parties’ Coverage Disputes and not
an agreement as to the merits of their respective claims, defenses, and positions, all of which they maintain; and 
 WHEREAS, the Parties
have each received the advice of counsel in the preparation, drafting, and execution of this Agreement, which was negotiated at arms’ length; and 
 WHEREAS, the Settlement Payments (as defined below) represent fair value for the release of the Policies and are a good faith estimate of the total amount that Hartford A&I could otherwise become obligated to pay
on behalf of SB Decking (as defined below) and/or Quaker (as defined below) for any and all Claims (as defined below), including without limitation Asbestos Claims, under the Policies; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to
be legally bound, the Parties agree as follows:

 2. Payments to SB Decking, Inc. 
 2.1 Hartford A&I shall make payments to SB Decking, Inc, totaling Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) (the “Settlement Amount”) in the following amounts at the following times: 
 a. Within fifteen days after the Effective Date, the sum of Seven Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000) (the “First Settlement
Payment”); and 
 b. Subject to the provisions of Section 8, within three hundred and eighty (380) days after the Effective
Date, the sum of Seven Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000) (the “Second Settlement Payment”). 
 2.2 The
Parties agree, subject to Section 4.3, that: (a) the Settlement Amount is the total amount that Hartford ever will be obligated to pay to Quaker, SB Decking, or any other Person under or arising out of the Policies in connection with any
Claim, including without limitation Asbestos Claims; (b) Hartford is not acting as a volunteer in paying the Settlement Amount pursuant to this Agreement; and (c) the Settlement Amount is based on a compromise reached through arms-length
negotiations and represents fair value for the releases provided for in Section 4 of this Agreement. 
  

 6 

 3. The Claims Account 
 3.1 The Settlement Payments shall be made by check, on or before the due date, to the Claims Account. The Claims Account shall be a conservative,
high quality interest-bearing investment account and, except as set forth in Sections 3.2 and 3.4 below, shall be used solely to pay defense and indemnity costs incurred by or on behalf of SB Decking or Quaker in connection with Asbestos Claims
arising out of the business of SB Decking. 
 3.2 If it ever becomes clear that, while funds remain in the Claims Account, neither SB
Decking nor Quaker will have any future obligation to pay defense or indemnity costs in connection with Asbestos Claims (a circumstance that the Parties agree is very unlikely to occur), the funds then remaining in the Claims Account may be used to
reimburse Quaker or SB Decking for any amounts expended by them that would have been eligible for insurance coverage under the Policies. 
 3.3 The Claims Account shall be closed upon the exhaustion of the account or the expiration of 15 years from the Effective Date, whichever occurs first. 
 3.4 The Parties agree that the Settlement Amount represents a good faith estimate of the total amount that Hartford could otherwise become obligated to pay under the Policies in connection with Asbestos Claims.
If it appears at the time the Claims Account is closed that any sums remaining in the account may be needed to pay defense or indemnity costs in connection with Asbestos Claims or other Claims that would have been eligible for coverage under the
Policies, then SB Decking shall use the remaining sums for such purposes. If, however, 
  

 7 

 there are sums remaining in the Claims Account at the time that it is closed, and it should at any time thereafter become
clear that there is only a remote possibility that such sums will ever be needed to pay defense or indemnity costs in connection with Asbestos Claims or other Claims that would have been eligible for coverage under the Policies (a contingency that
the Parties to this Agreement believe is very unlikely to occur), such sums may then be used by SB Decking for any purpose. 
 4.
Releases. 
 4.1 SB Decking, Quaker and Hartford each separately, fully, finally and completely, to the full extent that the
Parties have the right, power or authority to do so, releases, remises, acquits and forever discharges each other from, and covenants not to sue each other regarding, any and all past, present and future Claims of any kind, whether actual or
alleged, known or unknown, accrued or unaccrued, existing or potential, or suspected or unsuspected, in connection with, relating to, or arising out of, in any manner or fashion, the Policies, including without limitation,: 
  

	 	a.	Claims related to Asbestos Claims, 

  

	 	b.	Claims for breach of contract, 

  

	 	c.	Claims for indemnity, contribution, subrogation, equitable allocation, apportionment, or reimbursement that SB Decking and Quaker may have, either in their own right or by
acquisition from another insurer, and 

  

 8 

	 	d.	Claims for bad faith, extra-contractual damages, violation of an alleged duty of good faith and fair dealing, or comparable statutory Claim relating to Policies, including
(1) any such Claim arising out of or relating to Hartford’s handling of SB Decking’s or Quaker’s requests for insurance coverage for any Claims, including without limitation any Asbestos Claims or (2) the conduct of the
Parties with regard to the negotiation of this Agreement, 

 whether such Claims seek compensatory damages, punitive damages, exemplary
damages, statutorily multiplied damages, attorneys’ fees, interest, costs or any other type of relief. 
 4.2 The Parties
understand that Claims that have been made or may be asserted against SB Decking and/or Quaker may increase or decrease in amount or severity over time, that Claims asserted against SB Decking and/or Quaker may include progressive, cumulative,
unknown and/or unforeseen elements, and that there may be hidden, unknown and unknowable damages, defense expenses or other costs related to such Claims. Nonetheless, the Parties, and SB Decking, Quaker, and Hartford, to the full extent that the
Parties have the right, power or authority to bind them, irrevocably and knowingly agree that the releases contained in this Section 4 include a full, complete and irrevocable release and discharge from all known or unknown rights or Claims
under the Policies. In furtherance of this express intent, the Parties, and SB Decking, Quaker, and Hartford, to the full extent that the Parties have the right, power or authority to bind them, expressly waive any and all rights they may have under
any contract, statute, code, regulation, ordinance or the common law that may limit or restrict the effect of a general release of Claims not known or suspected to exist in its favor at the time of the execution of the Agreement. The Parties, and SB
Decking, Quaker, and Hartford, to the full extent that the Parties have the right, power or authority to bind them, expressly assume the risk that acts, omissions, matters, causes or things may have occurred or will occur that it does not know and
does not suspect to exist. 
  

 9 

 4.3 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the coverage provided by
Insuring Agreement I.A of Worker’s Compensation and Employer’s Liability policies that Hartford issued to SB Decking (or the substantially equivalent provision, however titled, providing compensation and other benefits required of the
insured by worker’s compensation law) shall not be impaired by this Agreement. 
 4.4 Subject to the provisions of Sections 6 and
7 of this Agreement, each Party expressly reserves any and all rights, positions and defenses it may have against any Person not a Party to this Agreement with respect to the matters addressed in this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement is intended
to release any reinsurance claim that Hartford has made or may make in the future. 
 4.5 The release set forth in Section 4 is
not intended to, and shall not, extend to or otherwise release or discharge any rights, privileges, benefits, duties, or obligations of any of the Parties arising under this Agreement. 
 4.6 The Parties acknowledge, warrant, and represent that they are aware of and familiar with section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which
provides as follows: 
 “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR
AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” 
 The
Parties further acknowledge, warrant, and represent that the effect and import of California Civil Code section 1542 has been fully explained to them by their 
  

 10 

 attorneys, and that, after consultation with their attorneys, they herein expressly waive and relinquish all rights and
benefits which they may have under California Civil Code section 1542 or the law of any other state or jurisdiction, or common law principle to the same or similar effect. 
 5. Indemnification. 
 5.1 SB Decking, Inc. (which, for purposes of this section 5 only shall include any successor to SB Decking, Inc.), to the extent of its Non-Insurance Assets, shall defend, indemnify, protect, save, and hold harmless Hartford from and
against any Indemnified Claim. 
 5.2 In connection with any Indemnified Claim, Hartford, upon consultation with SB Decking Inc. and
subject to SB Decking Inc.’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall have the right to choose Retained Counsel. SB Decking, Inc. shall acknowledge its responsibility to indemnify for the Indemnified Claim to the extent of its
Non-Insurance Assets, and it shall have the right, following consultation with and consideration of the views of Hartford, to direct and control the defense and determine defense strategy, subject to the following limitations: (a) SB Decking,
Inc. may not take any position with respect to insurance coverage in Hartford’s name without Hartford’s written consent in advance, and SB Decking, Inc. shall provide copies of all pleadings and briefs filed on behalf of Hartford in
advance of filing; (b) SB Decking, Inc. shall indicate that all pleadings, briefs, discovery responses and other filings are filed by SB Decking, Inc. as indemnitor of Hartford, and that the positions taken are those of SB Decking, Inc. not
Hartford; and (c) SB Decking, Inc. shall not agree to provide any information or documents from Hartford, nor produce any Hartford witness for testimony or deposition, without Hartford’s written consent in advance, which consent shall not
be 
  

 11 

 unreasonably withheld. SB Decking, Inc. shall have the right to settle or compromise any Indemnified Claim for which it
is paying the entire settlement amount, subject to input from and consideration of the views of Hartford, and provided that such settlement does not adopt or signify acquiescence in any insurance policy interpretations or coverage theories. Nothing
in this paragraph shall constitute a waiver of Hartford’s attorney-client privilege. 
 5.3 SB Decking, Inc. shall, to the extent
of its Non-Insurance Assets, pay all defense costs incurred by Retained Counsel in connection with any Claim indemnified under Section 5.1 of this Agreement and shall pay all settlement and judgments entered in connection with such Claims.

 5.4 Sections 5.2 and 5.3 shall not apply if SB Decking Inc. does not have Non-Insurance Assets with which to defend, indemnify,
protect, save, and hold harmless Hartford from and against any Indemnified Claim. Moreover, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5 to the contrary, Hartford shall have the right to assume at its own expense its defense in any
Indemnified Claim. In that event, Hartford shall control its defense and the settlement or compromise of the Indemnified Claim (except that if Hartford settles or compromises an Indemnified Claim without the consent of SB Decking, Inc., which may
not unreasonably be withheld, SB Decking, Inc. shall have no obligation to indemnify Hartford for such settlement or compromise). Subject to the foregoing, Hartford’s assumption of its defense shall not act as a waiver or release of SB Decking
Inc.’s obligations with respect to any Indemnified Claim. 
 5.5 Quaker Chemical Corporation (and any successor to Quaker
Chemical Corporation) shall indemnify and hold Hartford harmless from Claims by any Person that are the result of the actual (i.e., in fact, as opposed to alleged) use of the Claims Account in a manner inconsistent with Section 3 of this
Agreement. 
  

 12 

 5.6 Quaker Chemical Corporation’s (or its successor’s) obligation to indemnify and hold
Hartford harmless under Section 5.5 of this Agreement shall arise only upon a final judgment or award that is not subject to further appeal by a court or arbitrator(s), in a proceeding to which Quaker Chemical Corporation or its successor is a
party, of Hartford’s liability to a Person(s) that is the result of the actual use of the Claims Account in a manner inconsistent with Section 3 of this Agreement. Upon the entry of such a final judgment or award, Quaker Chemical
Corporation (or its successor) shall indemnify and hold Hartford harmless against: (1) all of Hartford’s reasonable costs, including but not limited to attorney’s fees, of defending against liability that is the result of the actual
use of the Claims Account in a manner inconsistent with Section 3 of this Agreement; and, (2) the judgment or award entered against Hartford, or reasonable settlement made by Hartford, for liability that is the result of the actual use of
the Claims Account in a manner inconsistent with Section 3 of this Agreement. 
 6. Contribution Claims By Other Insurers and
Judgment Reduction. 
 6.1 In the event that SB Decking and/or Quaker seek coverage for any Claim from another insurer and such
insurer claims a right of contribution or indemnity from Hartford under the Policies, Hartford, SB Decking and Quaker will take the position that the releases set forth in this Agreement extinguish any such right of contribution or indemnity against
Hartford. Hartford will also not oppose the position that such other insurer, at most, is entitled only to credit against obligations that it would otherwise owe to SB Decking and/or Quaker for amounts that would otherwise have been owed by Hartford
under the Policies only to the extent that such amounts remain available from the proceeds of this Settlement. In the event 
  

 13 

 that it is finally established by a final judgment from which no further appeal is possible that another insurer is
entitled to obtain contribution or indemnification from Hartford under the Hartford Policies for some portion of amounts that such other insurer has become obligated under its insurance policies to pay to SB Decking or Quaker, SB Decking and/or
Quaker will reduce the amount of any judgment obtained against such other insurer to the extent of any amount Hartford has been adjudged liable to pay to such other insurer by way of contribution or indemnity. To ensure that such a reduction is
accomplished, Hartford shall be entitled to assert this Section 6 as an additional defense to any action that may be brought against it by other insurers and to request that the court or appropriate tribunal issue such orders as are appropriate
to protect Hartford’s rights under this Agreement and applicable law. 
 7. Contribution/Indemnification Claims.

 7.1 SB Decking and Quaker agree that they will use their best efforts to obtain an agreement from any insurers with which either
of them in the future may enter into any settlement agreement regarding Asbestos Claims against SB Decking and/or Quaker that such settling insurer will not seek indemnification, contribution, subrogation or similar relief from Hartford. 

7.2 Contribution Claims By Hartford: Hartford agrees that it will not seek contribution or indemnification from any other insurer (other
than a Hartford reinsurer) for any amounts that it has paid for Asbestos Claims against SB Decking and/or Quaker in the past or pursuant to this Settlement unless such other insurer asserts claims for contribution or indemnity against Hartford with
respect to amounts that such other insurer has paid under its insurance policies for Asbestos Claims against SB Decking and/or Quaker, and then only to that extent. Quaker and SB Decking agree to seek a similar commitment from any of their other
insurers with which they make a future settlement. 
  

 14 

 8. Condition Subsequent: The Parties acknowledge that the United States Congress is
currently considering legislation (hereinafter the “Federal Asbestos Legislation”) that, if enacted, would impact the Asbestos Lawsuits and that would require Hartford to make certain payments into a trust established for the benefit of
asbestos-related bodily injury claimants that Hartford would not be entitled to reduce by reason of the Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000) payment that Hartford is scheduled to make 380 days after the Effective Date of this
Agreement (hereinafter the “Second Payment”). The Parties acknowledge that at the present time it appears unlikely that the Federal Asbestos Legislation will be enacted into law prior to 380 days after the Effective Date of this Agreement.
Nonetheless, if the President of the United States signs the Federal Asbestos Legislation into law prior to that date: 
  

	 	(i)	Hartford’s obligation to make the Second Payment will be cancelled; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the Parties expressly agree that all other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the releases set forth in Section 3 shall not be affected by
such Federal Asbestos Legislation or any amendment thereto. 

 9. Confidentiality. 
 9.1 This Agreement and all of its terms, and all documents, discussions and negotiations leading or related to it shall be and remain confidential
and shall not be disclosed to any non-Party, except that such disclosures may be made by: 
 a. Hartford in connection with reinsurance Claims
and obligations in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement; 
  

 15 

 b. Quaker and SB Decking in connection with Claims against, or settlement negotiations with, other
insurers relating to insurance coverage for Asbestos Claims; provided, however, that disclosure shall be made only upon such insurer executing an agreement or becoming subject to a court order requiring such insurer to maintain the disclosed
information as confidential; 
 c. Any Party to their respective auditors, regulators and lenders as deemed reasonably necessary; 

d. Any Party as required by law, including but not limited to the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or as ordered by a court
of competent jurisdiction; 
 e. Any Party with the written consent of the other; 
 f. Any Party, in an action to enforce the terms of this Agreement against another Party, provided that a protective order or confidentiality agreement is
entered in advance to limit disclosure of the terms of the Agreement. 
 9.2 Any Party making a disclosure pursuant to
Section 9.1.c shall notify the Person receiving the information that the information is confidential and, to the extent reasonably practicable, shall obtain a commitment from that Person to maintain its confidentiality. 
 9.3 In the event any Party believes disclosure is or may be required by law under Section 9.1.d., it shall give the other Party at least
thirty (30) days written notice before disclosing the information, unless the Party is required by law or court order to provide earlier disclosure, in which case notice shall be provided as soon as possible. 
  

 16 

 9.4 This confidentiality provision is a material term of this Agreement and is a significant
inducement to the Parties to enter the Agreement. 
 10. Representations and Warranties. 
 10.1 Each Party represents and warrants that it has full power and authority to enter into and deliver this Agreement; that each individual signing
this Agreement on behalf of the Party is fully authorized to do so; that it has not sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed, or otherwise disposed of any claim, demand or right surrendered by virtue of this Agreement; and that this Agreement is
enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
 10.2 Each Party further represents and warrants on its own behalf that: 
 a. It is a corporation duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of one of the states of the United States of America;

 b. It has taken all necessary corporate and internal legal actions to duly approve the making and performance of this Agreement and that
no further corporate or other internal approval is necessary; 
 c. The making and performance of this Agreement will not violate any
provision of law, or its articles of incorporation, charter or by-laws; and 
 d. It has read this entire Agreement and (i) knows and
understands the contents thereof, (ii) knows that the terms are contractual and not merely recitals, (iii) has signed this Agreement of its own free will, and (iv) has obtained and relied on advice of legal counsel. 
  

 17 

 10.3 Quaker represents and warrants that it knows of no entity entitled or which claims to be
entitled to coverage under the Policies except those entities that have released Hartford under Section 4 of this Agreement. 
 10.4 Quaker and SB Decking represent and warrant that they shall use the Claims Account solely to pay defense and indemnity costs incurred by or on behalf of SB Decking or Quaker in connection with Asbestos Claims arising out of the
business of SB Decking, or as is otherwise permitted by Section 3 of this Agreement. 
  

 18 

 11. Reliance on Representations. Each of the Parties acknowledges that, but for the
provision of each of the warranties, representations, and acknowledgments set forth herein, neither of the Parties would enter into this Agreement. 
 12. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and, subject to any provisions restricting assignment, to their successors and assigns. 
 13. No Admission. This Agreement is intended to be and is a commercial accommodation among the Parties. Nothing in this Agreement, nor in
the payment or receipt of the Settlement Amount under this Agreement, shall be construed as an admission by any Party of liability or of any duties, rights or obligations under the Policies. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as signifying
acquiescence in, admission of or acceptance by any Party of another Party’s claims, defenses, arguments, positions, or interpretations. 
 14. Agreement Inadmissible. Any evidence of the terms, negotiations or discussions associated with this Agreement shall be inadmissible in any action or proceeding for purposes of establishing any rights, duties, or
obligations of the Parties, except in (i) an action or proceeding to enforce the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) any possible action or proceeding between Hartford and any of its reinsurers. This Agreement shall not be used, as evidence or in
any other manner, in any court or dispute resolution proceeding to create, prove or interpret Hartford obligations under any insurance policy issued to SB Decking or to any other Person. 
 15. No Precedential Value. The compromise reflected in this Agreement shall be without precedential value and is not intended to be, nor
shall it be, construed as an interpretation of any insurance policy. 
  

 19 

 16. Entire And Integrated Agreement. This Agreement, together with any exhibits hereto, is
intended by the Parties as a final expression of their agreement and is intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matters contained herein. 
 17. Headings. The section titles, captions, and headings contained in this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for
reference, and shall in no way be construed to define, limit, or extend the scope of this Agreement or the effect of any of its provisions. 
 18. Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor any term set forth herein may be changed, waived, discharged, or terminated orally or in writing, except by a writing signed by all of the Parties, and the observance of any such term
may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance either retroactively or prospectively) by a writing signed by the Parties against whom such waiver is to be asserted. 
 19. Severability. If any provisions of this Agreement, or the application thereof, shall for any reason or to any extent be construed by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement, and application of such provisions to other circumstances, shall remain in effect and be interpreted so as best to reasonably effect the intent of the
Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the releases set forth in Section 4, or the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 5 are found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, then it shall be the intent
of the Parties that such invalidity or unenforceability shall be cause for rescission of the entire Agreement at the election of the Party whose interests are injured by the finding of invalidity or unenforceability. 
  

 20 

 20. No Waiver. Neither the waiver by a Party of a breach of or a default under any of the
provisions of this Agreement, nor the failure of a Party, on one or more occasion, to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder shall thereafter be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach
or default of a similar nature, or as a waiver of any such provisions, rights, or privileges hereunder. 
 21. Attorneys’ Fees,
Costs and Expenses. Each of the Parties shall bear its own costs, attorneys’ fees, and expenses in connection with the matters set forth in this Agreement, including the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement. 
 22. Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assignable by any Party hereto without the prior written consent of the other Parties hereto,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that this provision shall not require such prior written consent for an assignment by a Party hereto by merger, consolidation, or operation of law. 
 23. No Benefits to Third Parties. This Agreement is intended to confer rights and benefits only on SB Decking, Quaker and Hartford. No
other Person shall have any legally enforceable rights or benefits under this Agreement, except for the Parties’ respective successors and assigns as permitted hereunder, and except to the extent the releases set forth in this Agreement inure
to the benefit of Persons not signatories hereto. 
 24. Third-Party Challenge to Agreement. In the event that any action or
proceeding of any type whatsoever is commenced or prosecuted by any Person not a Party hereto to invalidate, interpret, or prevent the validation, enforcement, or carrying out of all or any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Parties mutually
agree, represent, warrant, and covenant to cooperate fully in opposing such action or proceeding. 
  

 21 

 25. Additional Necessary Documents. The Parties agree to execute such additional documents
as may be reasonably required in order to carry out the purpose and intent of this Agreement, or to evidence anything contained herein. 
 26. Written Notice. All notices, demands, or other communications to be provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and sent by facsimile, overnight mail or United States first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the
