ARTICLE II 
 The Credits

(a) Each Lender agrees to make Initial Term Loans to the Borrower on the DIP Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed its
Initial Term Loan Commitment.

Section 2.02 Loans and Borrowings. 

(a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in
accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided, that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and
no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. 
 (b) Subject to Section 2.14, each
Borrowing by the Borrower shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any ABR Loan or Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign
branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided, that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Lender shall not be
entitled to any amounts payable under Section 2.15 or 2.17 solely in respect of increased costs resulting from such exercise and existing at the time of such exercise.

 Section 2.03 Requests for Borrowings. 

(a) To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (i) in the case of a
Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, one (1) Business Day before
the date of the proposed Borrowing (or with respect to a Borrowing on the DIP Closing Date, such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent). Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed
promptly by hand delivery or electronic means to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. 

(b) Any such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; 

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; 

(iv) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period
contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; 
 (v) the location and number of the Borrower’s
account to which funds are to be disbursed; and 
 (vi) if no election as to the Type of any Borrowing by the Borrower is
specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
(1) month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be
made as part of the requested Borrowing.

 Section 2.06 Funding of Borrowings. 

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds
by 12:00 noon, Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts
so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower as specified in the applicable Borrowing Request. 
 (b) Unless the Administrative
Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such
Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in
fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount
with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the
greater of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (b) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the
interest rate applicable to ABR Loans at such time. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. If the Borrower pays such amount to the
Administrative Agent, then such amount (exclusive of any interest thereon) shall constitute a reduction of such Borrowing. 

Section 2.07 Interest Elections. 

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request (subject to the restrictions set forth in this
Agreement) and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect (subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement) to convert such
Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to
different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate
Borrowing. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by
telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Any such telephonic
Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

  
 45 

 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall
specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election
Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses
(iii) and/or (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the
election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the resulting
Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency
Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.” 

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have
selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender to which such Interest Election Request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the written request (including a request through electronic means) of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing
(w) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (x) unless repaid, each such Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. 

Section 2.08 [Reserved] 

Section 2.09 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal
amount of each Loan to the Borrower as provided in Section 2.10.

Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each applicable Lender hereunder and (iii) any
amount received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The
entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.09 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, that the failure of any
Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans to the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note (a “Promissory Note”).
In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Promissory Note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the
Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Promissory Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more
Promissory Notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such Promissory Note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

(a) To the extent not previously paid, outstanding Loans shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

of the Loans from all Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 2.11(b) and any optional prepayments of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a) shall be allocated to the Loans pro rata. 

(d) Prior to the repayment of any Loan (other than a Waivable Mandatory Prepayment with respect to which any Lender has exercised its option
to waive such payment, in which case, subject to the provisions in the following sentence, the amount of such prepayment due to Accepting Lenders shall be applied on a pro rata basis to repay a portion of each Term Borrowing made by Accepting
Lenders), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by electronic means) (a) in the case of an ABR Borrowing not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time on the scheduled date of such prepayment and (b) in the
case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time at least one (1) Business Day before the scheduled date of such prepayment; provided, that a notice of prepayment may state

  
 47 

 
that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, indentures or similar financing agreements, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice
to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.10, in the case of prepayments under Section 2.11(a), the Borrower may in its sole
discretion select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid. Each repayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing such that each applicable Lender receives its ratable share of such repayment.
Repayments of Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid. 
 Section 2.11 Prepayment of Loans.

 (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Loan in whole or in part, without premium or
penalty (but subject to clause (d) below and Section 2.16), in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum or, if less, the amount outstanding, subject to
prior notice in accordance with Section 2.10. 
 (b) Within five (5) Business Days upon receipt thereof by Hexion or any of its
Subsidiaries, all Net Proceeds shall be applied to prepay Loans in accordance with clause (c) of Section 2.10. 
 (c) Anything
contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the Borrower is required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Loans, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the date
(the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which the Borrower is required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, the Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and Administrative Agent will promptly
thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Loan of (i) the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and (ii) if the Borrower shall, in its sole discretion, so instruct the Administrative
Agent, such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. In the event that the Borrower offers to the Lenders the option to refuse a Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to the
Administrative Agent of its election to do so on or before the second Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify the Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on
or before the first Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). On the Required Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent the amount of the
Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, which amount shall be applied (i) in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment payable to those Lenders that have elected not to exercise such option (each, an “Accepting
Lender”), to prepay the Term Loans of such Accepting Lenders, and (ii) in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment otherwise payable to those Lenders that have elected to exercise such option, to the
Borrower.

a prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a) with the proceeds of any new or replacement tranche of long-term secured term loans that have an All-in Yield that is less than the All-in Yield of such Term Loans, (y) effect 

  
 48 

 
any amendment to this Agreement which reduces the All-in Yield of the Term Loans or (z) prepay, repay, refinance, substitute or replace all or any
portion of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.19(c) as a result of, or in connection with, such Lender not agreeing or otherwise consenting to any waiver, consent or amendment in connection with a repricing event that reduces the All-in Yield of the Term Loans (other than, in the case of each of clauses (x), (y) and (z), in connection with a Change in Control or a transformative acquisition referred to in the last sentence of this
paragraph), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Lenders, (A) in the case of clause (x), a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so
prepaid, (B) in the case of clause (y), a fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Term Loans for which the All-In Yield has been reduced pursuant to such amendment and
(C) in the case of clause (z), a fee equal to 1.00% of the principal amount of the applicable Term Loans so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced. Such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of such prepayment or the
effective date of such amendment, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 2.11(d), a transformative acquisition is any acquisition by Hexion or any Subsidiary that is (i) not permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents
immediately prior to the consummation of such acquisition or (ii) if permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents immediately prior to the consummation of such acquisition, would not provide Hexion and its Subsidiaries with adequate flexibility
under the Loan Documents for the continuation and/or expansion of their combined operations following such consummation, as determined by Hexion in good faith.

the agency fees set forth in the Fee Letter, at the times specified therein (the “Fees”). 
 (b) All Fees shall be paid on
the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances. 

Section 2.13 Interest. 

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the ABR plus the Applicable Margin. 

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such
Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other
amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case
of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.0% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding clauses of this Section 2.13 or (ii) in the case of any other amount payable by the Borrower, 2.0% plus the rate
applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.13; provided, that this clause (c) shall not apply to any Event of Default that has been waived by the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.08. 

  
 49 

 (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) on each Interest
Payment Date for such Loan and (ii) in the case of Loans in respect of any Class, upon termination of the Commitments in respect of such Class; provided, that (x) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this
Section 2.13 shall be payable on demand, (y) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in
the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the ABR at
times when the ABR is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last
day). The applicable ABR, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

Section 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest. 

If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing: 

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do
not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or 
 (b) the Administrative
Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such
Borrowing for such Interest Period; 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the applicable Lenders by telephone or
telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the applicable Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that
requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in such currency shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued as on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, an ABR Borrowing and (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing. 

If at any time the Administrative Agent and the Borrower determine (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that
(i) the circumstance set forth in Section 2.14(a) above has arisen and such circumstance is unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstance set forth in Section 2.14(a) has not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of

  
 50 

 
the LIBO Rate, or the administrator of the LIBO Rate, or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after
which the LIBO Rate shall no longer be published or used for determining interest rates for loans, then (A) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower reasonably determine that there exists a then prevailing market convention for determining
a reference rate of interest for syndicated loans in Dollars as the successor to interest rates based on the LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of
interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (and such amendment shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.08, become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to
this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such
Required Lenders object to such amendment), or (B) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower are unable to reasonably determine that a then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the U.S. as
the successor to interest rates based on the LIBO Rate does exist, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect an alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as
may be applicable, in each case that are acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and such amendment shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.08, become effective so long as the Administrative Agent shall not
have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment).

Section 2.15 Increased Costs. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or
for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); 

(ii) subject the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes, Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes)
on its loans, loan principal, letter of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributed thereto; or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans
made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of
maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such
Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph,
it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 

  
 51 

 (b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity
requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level
below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital
adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth
the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower
shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Promptly after
any Lender has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15, such Lender shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this
Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or
reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

Section 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on
the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to
borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a
result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or
expense to any Lender shall be deemed to be the amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted
LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue a Eurocurrency Loan, for the
period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the 

  
 52 

 
interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in Dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurocurrency
market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall
pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 Section 2.17
Taxes. 
 (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents shall be made free
and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in good faith judgment of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from such
payments by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law
and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the
Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made. 

(b) In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay on a timely basis any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for such Other Taxes. 
 (c) The Loan Parties shall
jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such person and any reasonable expenses arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to
such Loan Party by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf, on behalf of another Agent or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes
attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to
such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c)(i) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and
any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered
to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be 

  
 53 

 
conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or
otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d). 

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of any Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such
Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
withholding Tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which any Loan Party is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to such Loan Party (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), to the extent such Lender is legally entitled to do so, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as may reasonably be requested by such
Loan Party to permit such payments to be made without such withholding tax or at a reduced rate; provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation under this paragraph (f)(i) with respect to any withholding Tax imposed by any
jurisdiction other than the United States if in the reasonable judgment of such Lender such compliance would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material
respect. 
 (ii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax
imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations
under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(f)(ii), “FATCA”
shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 (g) (i) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the
Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Borrower) on or prior to the date on which the Administrative Agent becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and from time to time thereafter (A) promptly upon the
obsolescence, expiration or invalidity of any form previously delivered to the Administrative Agent and (B) upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8IMY (or any other form prescribed by applicable law reasonably requested by the Borrower), which certifies that payments by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent
(solely in its capacity as payee of such payments and not as the beneficial owner of such payments) are exempt from withholding under the Code. 

  
 54 

 (ii) If the Administrative Agent is a U.S. branch described in Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)(A) of the Treasury Regulations and delivers to the Borrower a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY
pursuant to Section 2.17(f) (i) certifying that the Administrative Agent is a U.S. branch and intends to be treated as a U.S. person for purposes of withholding under Chapter 3 of the Code, then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
shall treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person for purposes of withholding under Chapter 3 of the Code, pursuant to Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Treasury Regulations. 

(i) In the event the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America, 

(A) each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on the date on which such Foreign Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two original copies of whichever of the following is applicable: (i) duly completed copies of
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any subsequent versions thereof
or successors thereto), claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or
any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect
that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3) or 881(c)(3)(B)
of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto) and (iv) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8IMY, together with forms and certificates described in clauses (i) through (iii) above (and additional Form W-8IMYs) as may be required; and 

(B) each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto) on or before the date such Lender becomes a party and upon the expiration of any form previously delivered by such Lender,
certifying that payments to such Lender are exempt from withholding under the Code. 
 (h) Each Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is
legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), any other form prescribed by applicable 

  
 55 

 
law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States of America federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by
applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. In addition, in each of the foregoing circumstances, each Foreign Lender shall deliver such forms, if legally entitled to deliver such forms,
promptly upon the obsolescence, expiration or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Foreign Lender. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously
delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States of America or other taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause, a Foreign Lender (for the avoidance
of doubt, acting solely in its capacity as a Lender) shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this clause that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver. 

(i) If any party determines, in good faith and in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified or with respect to which such indemnifying party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to such indemnifying party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional
amounts paid under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out of pocket expenses (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) of such indemnified party, and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid
over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party
in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise
imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph (h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information
relating to its Taxes which it deems, in good faith and in its sole discretion, to be confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other person. 

Section 2.18 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. 

(a) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees
or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16, or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any defense, recoupment, set off or counterclaim.
Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to
the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05 shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto. The
Administrative Agent shall distribute any 

  
 56 

 
such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under the Loan Documents of
(i) principal and interest in respect of any Loan shall be made in the currency in which such Loan is denominated and (ii) any other amount shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder
shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or
settlement system used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment. 
 (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and
available to the Administrative Agent from the Loan Parties to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due from the Loan Parties hereunder, such funds or proceeds of Collateral (including any distributions of cash, securities or
other property in a bankruptcy case of the Loan Parties) shall be applied, subject to the Security Documents and any applicable intercreditor agreement; first, ratably, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent from the Loan Parties; second, ratably, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Loan Parties; third, ratably, to pay interest due and payable in respect of any Loans;
fourth, ratably, to pay the outstanding principal of Loans then due from the Borrower hereunder; and fifth, ratably, to pay all other applicable Obligations due to the Agents or any Lender by the Loan Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, no amount
received from any Guarantor, or from the proceeds of Collateral pledged by such Guarantor, shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Guarantor. 

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain
payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other
Lender entitled thereto, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase participations in the Loans of other applicable Lenders entitled thereto to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by
the applicable Lenders entitled thereto ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided, that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of
the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to
apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any Assignee or
Participant. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of
set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

  
 57 

 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to
the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in
accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent
forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent at the greater of
(A) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.06(b) or 2.18(d), then the
Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such
Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 Section 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of
Lenders. 
 (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount
to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign
its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or
2.17, as applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and
effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and
obligations under this Agreement to an Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided, that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent
of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued Fees and all other
amounts payable to it hereunder, from the Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a
claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such 

  
 58 

 
compensation or payments. No action by or consent of the removed Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment
of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such removed Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.04; provided, that if such removed Lender does not
comply with Section 2.19 within three (3) Business Days after the Borrower’s request, compliance with Section 2.19 shall not be required to effect such assignment. 

(c) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a
proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.08 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then, provided
that no Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) at its sole expense (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee
referred to in Section 9.04(b)(ii)(B)) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by deeming such Non-Consenting Lender to have assigned its Loans and Commitments
hereunder to one or more Assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided, that: (a) all Loan Document Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender
(including accrued Fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder) being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, and (b) the replacement Lender
shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. No action by or consent of the Non-Consenting Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment the
Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.04; provided, that if such
Non-Consenting Lender does not comply with Section 9.04 within three (3) Business Days after the Borrower’s request, compliance with Section 9.04 shall not be required to effect such
assignment. 
 Section 2.20 [Reserved]. 

Section 2.21 [Reserved]. 

Section 2.22 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any change in law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental
Authority has asserted after the DIP Closing Date that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative
Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to Eurocurrency Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances
giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), either convert all Eurocurrency Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings,
either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such
prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

Hexion covenants and agrees with each Lender that, until the Termination Date, unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing,
Hexion will, and will cause the Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries to:

 (a) Do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence, (i) except
as otherwise expressly permitted under Section 6.05, (ii) except for the liquidation or dissolution of Subsidiaries if the assets of such Subsidiaries to the extent they exceed estimated liabilities are acquired by Hexion or a Wholly Owned
Subsidiary of Hexion in such liquidation or dissolution; provided that Subsidiaries that are Loan Parties may not be liquidated into Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties, and (iii) except (other than with respect to Holdings and Hexion) where
the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Borden Chemical UK Limited may liquidate or dissolve. 

(b) Except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, do or cause to be done all things
necessary to (i) obtain, preserve, renew, extend and keep in full force and effect the permits, franchises, authorizations, patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and rights with respect thereto necessary to the

in good repair, working order and condition and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all needful and proper repairs, renewals, additions, improvements and replacements thereto necessary in order that the business carried on in connection
therewith, if any, may be properly conducted at all times (in each case except as expressly permitted by this Agreement). 

  
 73 

 Section 5.02 Insurance. 

(a) Maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance in such amounts and against such risks as are customarily
maintained by similarly situated companies engaged in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations and, with respect to the Collateral of the Loan Parties (and, with respect to the Collateral of the Loan Parties that are
not Domestic Loan Parties, only to the extent such concept or a concept comparable thereto exists in the relevant jurisdiction of such Loan Party), cause all such property and property casualty insurance policies to be endorsed or otherwise amended
to include a “standard” or “New York” lender’s loss payable and additional insured endorsement (or comparable provision applicable in the relevant foreign jurisdiction), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) In connection with the covenants set forth in this Section 5.02, it is understood and agreed that:

 (i) none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective agents or employees shall be liable for any loss or
damage insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 5.02, it being understood that (A) the Loan Parties shall look solely to their insurance companies or any other parties other than the aforesaid parties
for the recovery of such loss or damage and (B) such insurance companies shall have no rights of subrogation against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their agents or employees. If, however, the insurance policies, as a matter of the
internal policy of such insurer, do not provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then Hexion, on behalf of itself and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries, hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to
waive, and further agrees to cause each of its Subsidiaries to waive, its right of recovery, if any, against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their agents and employees; and 

(ii) the designation of any form, type or amount of insurance coverage by the Administrative Agent under this Section 5.02
shall in no event be deemed a representation, warranty or advice by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders that such insurance is adequate for the purposes of the business of Holdings, Hexion or any Subsidiary or the protection of their properties.

 Section 5.03 Taxes. Except (in the case of the Debtors only) in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code or by applicable order of
the Bankruptcy Court, pay and discharge promptly when due all post-petition (and pre-petition in the case of Foreign Loan Parties) material Taxes imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in respect of
its property, before the same shall become delinquent or in default, as well as all lawful claims which, if unpaid, might give rise to a Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon such properties or any part thereof; provided, however,
that such payment and discharge shall not be required with respect to any such Tax or claim so long as the validity or amount thereof shall be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, and Hexion or the affected Subsidiary, as applicable,
shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP with respect thereto or except (in the case of the Debtors only) to the extent the non-payment thereof is permitted by the Bankruptcy
Code and would not be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

forthwith the Commitments, (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any

ARTICLE VIII 
 The Agents

 Section 8.01 Appointment. 

(a) Each Lender (in such capacity) hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including as the Collateral Agent for such Lender and the other Secured Parties under the Security Documents and any applicable intercreditor agreement, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the
Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent
by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America, each
of the Lenders hereby grants to the Administrative Agent any required powers of attorney to execute any Security Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on such Lender’s behalf, in any form, notarial or otherwise. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, 

  
 110 

 
responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. To the extent required by
any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the
Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of
a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the
Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and
out-of-pocket expenses) incurred. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have
and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which such Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, including the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 7.01, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the Lenders. 

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender
for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection,
the Administrative Agent (and any Subagents appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for
exercising any rights or remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent) shall be entitled to the benefits of this Article VIII (including, without limitation, Section 8.07) and Section 9.05 as though the Administrative
Agent (and any such Subagents) were an “Agent” under the Loan Documents, as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 

Section 8.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact (to
which it shall be entitled to grant power of attorney for these purposes) and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. None of the Agents shall be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or
misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent may also from time to time, when the Administrative Agent
deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Subagent”) with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any
Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Administrative Agent. Should any instrument in writing from Hexion or any other Loan Party be required by any Subagent so appointed by the Administrative Agent to more
fully or certainly vest in and confirm to such Subagent such rights, 

  
 111 

 
powers, privileges and duties, Hexion shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent. If
any Subagent, or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Subagent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the
Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Subagent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent,
attorney-in-fact or Subagent that it selects in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02 in the absence of the Administrative Agent’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct (as found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction). 

Section 8.03 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent or its Affiliates nor any of their respective Related Parties shall be
(a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable
decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or
warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in
connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to
perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, (x) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (y) the Administrative Agent
shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its respective Affiliates that is
communicated to or obtained by the person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement,
warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith,
(iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of
any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

  
 112 

 Section 8.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, electronic transmission, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Holdings, Hexion or the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by
the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining
compliance with any condition hereunder to any Credit Event, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent
shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to such Credit Event. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall
not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Promissory Note as the owner thereof for all purposes
unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders
against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon
all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 
 Section 8.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be
deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take
such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders); provided, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall
have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of
the Lenders. 
 Section 8.06 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender
expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their Related Parties have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any Affiliate of a
Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to 

  
 113 

 
the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of
and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender
also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and
decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or
responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may
come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 

Section 8.07 Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), in the amount of its pro rata share (based on its aggregate outstanding Loans hereunder determined at the time such indemnity is sought), from and
against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
failure of any Lender to reimburse any Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to such Agent as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to
reimburse such Agent for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse such Agent for such other Lender’s ratable share of such amount. The agreements in this
Section 8.07 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 Section 8.08
Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made
or renewed by it each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders”
shall include each Agent in its individual capacity. 

  
 114 

 Section 8.09 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign
as Administrative Agent upon twenty (20) days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall
appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by Hexion (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the
former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders
of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is twenty (20) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s
resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for
above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, for purposes of the Dutch Security Documents, any resignation by the Collateral Agent is not effective until its rights under and obligations with
respect to the Parallel Debts are assigned to and assumed by the successor Collateral Agent. 
 Section 8.10 Arrangers. None of
the Joint Lead Arrangers shall have any relationship of trust or agency with any Loan Party or any duties, responsibilities or obligations hereunder in its respective capacity as such. 

Section 8.11 Security Documents and Collateral Agent Under Security Documents and Guarantees. The Lenders authorize the
Administrative Agent to release any Collateral or Guarantors in accordance with Section 9.18. The Lenders irrevocably agree that (a) the Collateral Agent may, without any further consent of any Lender, enter into or amend any intercreditor
agreement with the collateral agent or other representatives of the holders of Indebtedness that is permitted to be secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is permitted under this Agreement, (b) the Collateral Agent may rely exclusively on a
certificate of a Responsible Officer of Hexion as to whether any such other Liens are permitted and (c) any intercreditor agreement referred to in the foregoing clause (a), entered into by the Collateral Agent, shall be binding on the Secured
Parties. Furthermore, the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under any Loan Document
(i) to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02 to be senior to the Liens of the Collateral Agent on such property or (ii) that is or becomes Excluded Property; and the Administrative Agent and
Collateral Agent shall do so upon request of Hexion; provided, that prior to any such request, Hexion shall have in each case delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of Hexion certifying that such Lien is
permitted under this Agreement or that such property is Excluded Property, as applicable. 

  
 115 

 Section 8.12 Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guarantees. In case of
the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, (i) the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the
principal of any Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (A) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of any or all of the Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and any Subagents allowed in such judicial proceeding, and (B) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and (ii) any custodian, receiver, Assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such
payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or
consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim
of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Holdings, Hexion,
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (a) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantees, it being understood
and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may
be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent, and (b) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the
purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual
capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to
use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties herein, in the other Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans, the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, regardless of any investigation made by such persons
or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreements contained herein, indemnification and reimbursement obligations contained herein (including
pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05) shall survive the payment in full of the principal and interest hereunder and the termination of the Commitments or this Agreement. 

Section 9.03 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Holdings, Hexion, the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received copies hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of Holdings, Hexion, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns. 

Section 9.04 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (other than pursuant to a merger permitted by Section 6.05(b)) without the prior written consent of each
Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer without such consent shall be null and void), and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.04 or
Article X. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in
paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04), and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents. 

  
 118 

 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in subclause (b)(ii) below, any Lender
may assign to one or more assignees (other than a natural person) (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time
owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: 
 (A) Hexion;
provided, that no consent of Hexion shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other person; provided,
further, that Hexion shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless Hexion shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and 

(B) the Administrative Agent (except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund).

 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the
entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under any Class, the amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $500,000 unless Hexion and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided, that no such consent of Hexion shall be required if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds (with simultaneous assignments to or by two or more related Approved Funds
shall be treated as one assignment), if any; 
 (B) the parties to each assignment shall (x) execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent or (y) if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Assignment and Acceptance, in each case together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); provided that (i) assignments pursuant to
Section 2.19 shall not require the signature of the assigning Lender to become effective, (ii) any such processing and recordation fee in connection with assignments pursuant to Section 2.19 shall be paid by Hexion or the Assignee and
(iii) only one such processing and recordation fee shall be payable in connection with simultaneous assignments to two or more Assignees that are Affiliates of one another, or to two or more Approved Funds that are managed by the same
investment advisor; 
 (C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.17; and 

  
 119 

 (D) assignment or transfer to or assumption by any person of Commitments or
Loans shall only be permitted if such person is a Non-Public Lender. 
 For the purposes of this Section 9.04,
“Approved Fund” means any person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered or managed by
(x) a Lender, (y) an Affiliate of a Lender or (z) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Lender shall be permitted to assign or transfer any
portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or sell any participation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates. 

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to subclause (v) below, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05 (subject to the limitations and requirements of
those Sections)). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in
such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (c) of this Section 9.04. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent,
acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding
notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Hexion, the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the
Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in clause (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment
required by clause (b) of this Section and any applicable tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment, whether or not
evidenced by a Promissory Note, shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this subclause (v). 

  
 120 

 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of Hexion or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of Loans at the time owing to it);
provided, that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) Hexion,
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender
sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and any other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and any other Loan
Documents; provided, that (x) such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (i) requires the consent of each Lender directly
affected thereby pursuant to Section 9.04(a)(i) or subclauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (vi) of the first proviso to Section 9.08(b) and (ii) directly affects such Participant (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any waiver
of any Default or Event of Default) and (y) no other agreement with respect to amendment, modification or waiver may exist between such Lender and such Participant. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at Hexion’s request and
expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19(b) or (c) with respect to any Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 2.17(f) and (g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Sections 2.17(f) and
(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Sections 2.15 or 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender, provided, that such Participant shall be subject to 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans
or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any person (including the identity of
any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan
or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and
such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance
of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

  
 121 

 (d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at
any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank
having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided, that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of
its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (e) The Borrower, upon receipt of
written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Promissory Notes to any Lender requiring Promissory Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in clause (d) above. 

(f) If the Borrower wishes to replace the Loans or Commitments of any Class with ones having different terms, it shall have the option,
with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three (3) Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders of such Class, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to
(i) require the Lenders of such Class, to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 9.08 (with such replacement, if applicable, being
deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 9.04(b)(ii)). Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders of such Class, in the same manner as would be required
if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrower), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any other amounts owing pursuant to this Agreement. By
receiving such purchase price, the Lenders of such Class, shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans or Commitments of such Class, pursuant to the terms of the form of Assignment and Acceptance attached hereto as
Exhibit A, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this clause (h) are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of
existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement. 
 (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment may be made
and, to the extent the list of such Ineligible Institution has been made available to all Lenders, no participation sold to an Ineligible Institution without the prior written consent of Hexion. 

Section 9.05 Expenses; Indemnity. 

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses (including Other Taxes) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or
by the Administrative Agent in connection with the syndication of the Commitments, administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including expenses incurred in connection with due diligence, initial and ongoing appraisals and
Collateral examinations to the extent incurred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, mortgage recordings, title registrations, UCC filings and other filings in connection with the creation and perfection of the Liens of the Collateral
Agent (and the priority thereof) as contemplated hereby or other Loan Documents and the reasonable fees, 

  
 122 

 
disbursements and charges of no more than one counsel in each jurisdiction where Collateral is located) or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or
not such amendment, waiver or modification is approved by the applicable Lenders), including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Simpson, Thacher & Bartlett LLP and Landis Rath & Cobb LLP, counsel for the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers, and the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one local counsel per applicable jurisdiction (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where such
person affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel with the Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld), of another firm for such affected person); and
(ii) all out-of-pocket expenses (including Other Taxes) incurred by the Agents or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights in
connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in connection with the Loans made or the Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including the fees, charges and disbursements of a single counsel for all such persons, taken as a whole (and,
in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where such person affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel with the Borrower’s (or Hexion’s) prior written consent
(not to be unreasonably withheld), of another firm for such affected person). 
 (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative
Agent, the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers, each Lender, each of their respective Affiliates, successors and assigns and each of their respective Related Parties (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold
each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable documented counsel fees, charges and disbursements (excluding the allocated costs of in house counsel and limited to not more
than one counsel for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where
such Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel with the Borrower’s (or Hexion’s) prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld), of another firm of such for
such affected Indemnitee), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of
the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto, and regardless of whether any of the foregoing is raised or initiated by a third party or
the Borrower (including its equity holders, affiliates, creditors, or any other person) or any other Loan Party or any Subsidiary; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee (for purposes of this proviso only, (x) “Indemnitee” shall not include any agents or advisors and (y) each of the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or any Lender shall be treated as
several and separate Indemnitees, but each of them together with its respective Related Parties, shall be treated as a single Indemnitee). Subject to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the

  
 123 

 
Borrower agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel
or consultant fees, charges and disbursements (limited to not more than one counsel, plus, if necessary, one local counsel per jurisdiction) (except the allocated costs of in-house counsel), incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (a) any claim related in any way to Environmental Laws and Holdings, Hexion or any of the Subsidiaries, or (b) any actual or alleged presence,
Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials at, under, on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by Holdings, Hexion or any of the Subsidiaries; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be
available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties. None of the Indemnitees (or any of their respective affiliates) shall be responsible or liable to Hexion or any of their respective subsidiaries, Affiliates or stockholders or any other person or entity
for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, which may be alleged as a result of the facilities hereunder or the Transactions. The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless
of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested. 

(c) Except as expressly provided in Section 9.05(a) with respect to Other Taxes, which shall not be duplicative with any amounts
paid pursuant to Section 2.17, this Section 9.05 shall not apply to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages from any non-Tax claim. 

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Holdings, Hexion and the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against
any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information
or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 

(e) The agreements in this Section 9.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the
termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

  
 124 

 Section 9.06 Right of Set off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Holdings, Hexion or any Subsidiary against any of and all the Obligations of Holdings, Hexion or
any Subsidiary now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender or such Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such
other Loan Document and although the Obligations may be unmatured; provided, that no amounts set off with respect to any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor. The rights of each Lender and each of
their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender may have. 

Section 9.07 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OTHER THAN (AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS) AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO SUCH LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

Section 9.08 Waivers; Amendment. 

(a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any Loan Document shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver
or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle such person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances. 
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or
modified except (x) as provided in Section 8.11, (y) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, Hexion, the Borrower and the Required Lenders and (z) in the
case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each Loan Party thereto and the Administrative Agent, or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, and consented to by the Required Lenders;
provided, however, that no such agreement shall 
 (i) decrease or forgive the principal amount of, or extend the
final maturity of, or decrease the rate of interest on, any Loan, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender directly adversely affected
thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification); provided, that no amendment to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (i);

  
 125 

 (ii) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender or decrease any fees of
any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender directly adversely affected thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification); provided,
that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the aggregate Commitments shall not constitute an increase of the Commitments of any Lender; 

(iii) extend any date on which payment of interest on any Loan or any Fees is due, without the prior written consent of each
Lender directly adversely affected thereby (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender directly adversely affected thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification); 

(iv) amend the provisions of Section 2.11(d) or Section 2.18(b) of this Agreement or any comparable provision of any
other Security Document in a manner that would by its terms alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby; 

(v) amend or modify the provisions of this Section 9.08 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other
provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely
affected thereby (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the
Loans and Commitments are included on the DIP Closing Date); or

materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information

 130 

 
Administrative Agent. In addition, each Loan Party agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan

pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

(ii) The Administrative Agent agrees that receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth in Section 9.01 shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as
provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform (as defined below) shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees
(a) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic
transmission and (b) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

Borrower or their respective securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). The Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Communications that may not be distributed to the Public
Lenders and that (i) all such Communications shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PRIVATE” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PRIVATE” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by not
marking Communications “PRIVATE,” The Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders to treat such Communications as either publicly available information or not material
information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to Holdings, Hexion, the Borrower or their respective securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws, (iii) all Communications not marked
“PRIVATE” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor;” and (iv) the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Communications that
are marked “PRIVATE” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.” 

(c) Platform. The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available”. The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not
warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty
of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or
the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its 

  
 131 

 
Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents advisors or representatives (collectively, “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Loan Parties,
any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise), arising out of any Loan Party’s or the
Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the internet, except to the extent the liability of any Agent Party is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 Section 9.18 Release
of Liens and Guarantees. (a) The Agents and Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released: (i) in full, as set forth in
Section 9.18(d) below; (ii) upon the sale or other disposition of such Collateral by any Loan Party to a person that is not (and is not required to become) a Loan Party in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement (and the Collateral
Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by the Responsible Officer of Hexion or the Borrower upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent that such Collateral comprises property
leased to a Loan Party, upon termination or expiration of such lease, (iv) if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of the Lenders whose consent may be required
in accordance with Section 9.08), (v) to the extent that the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee in accordance with clause
(b) below, (vi) as provided in Section 8.11, (vii) as contemplated by any intercreditor agreement, (viii) to the extent any asset or property constitutes Excluded Property and (ix) as required by the Collateral Agent to
effect any sale or disposition of Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens
(other than those being released) upon (or Obligations (other than those being released) of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale or disposition, all of which shall continue to
constitute part of the Collateral except to the extent otherwise released in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents. 
 (b) In
addition, the Agents and Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that the Subsidiary Loan Parties shall be released from the Guarantees and the Security Documents upon consummation of any transaction not prohibited hereunder resulting in such
Subsidiary Loan Party ceasing to constitute a Subsidiary Loan Party or otherwise a Subsidiary (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Responsible Officer of the Borrower or Hexion upon
its reasonable request without further inquiry). 
 (c) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as
applicable, to execute and deliver any instruments, documents, and agreements necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Guarantor or Collateral pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.18, all without the
further consent or joinder of any Lender. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document relating to any such Collateral or Guarantor shall no longer be deemed to be made. In connection with any release hereunder, the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or
Hexion and at such Loan Party’s expense in connection with the release of any Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of such Subsidiary, property or asset. 

  
 132 

 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document,
upon the Termination Date, upon request of Hexion, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Secured Party) take such actions as shall be required to release its
security interest in all Collateral, and to release all Obligations under any Loan Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be any contingent indemnification Obligations or expense reimburse claims not then due. Any such
release of Obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such Obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be
restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer
for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 

Section 9.19 Parallel Debt. 

(a) Each Loan Party irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Collateral Agent amounts equal to its Corresponding Obligations
as they may exist from time to time (each a “Parallel Debt”). Each Parallel Debt will become due and payable at the same time as the relevant Corresponding Obligation becomes due and payable. 

(b) The rights of the Collateral Agent under the Parallel Debts are the Collateral Agent’s own claims to receive payment from the Loan
Parties, several and independent from any right that a Secured Party may have under the Loan Documents. 
 (c) An amount received by the
Collateral Agent in discharge of a Parallel Debt will discharge the relevant Corresponding Obligation in an equal amount. 
 (d) The
aggregate amount outstanding under the Parallel Debts will never exceed the aggregate amount outstanding under the Corresponding Obligations.

execution of any Loan Document (including by way of accession to this Agreement or any other agreement, deed or document referred to in or made pursuant to this Agreement), it is hereby expressly acknowledged and accepted by the other parties to
this Agreement that the existence and extent of the attorney’s authority and the effects of the attorney’s exercise or purported exercise of his or her authority shall be governed by the laws of The Netherlands.

and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and
address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. 

  
 133

acknowledges and agrees that (a) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Loan Parties and the Lenders is intended to be or has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan

Guarantee 

Section 2.01.    Guarantee. Each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly with the
other Guarantors and severally, to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the due and punctual payment and performance of its Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor
further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed
Obligation. Each Guarantor waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for
nonpayment. 
 Section 2.02.    Guarantee of Payment. Each Guarantor further agrees that its
guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other
Secured Party to any security held for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in favor of the Borrower or any other person.

 Section 2.03.    No Limitations, Etc. (a) Except for termination or release of a
Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided for in Section 4.11 and except for the limitations set forth in Section 2.07 or, with respect to any Subsidiary Loan Party that becomes a party hereto pursuant to
Section 4.12 or otherwise, in any Supplement to this Agreement, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release,
surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the
Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise (other than defense of payment or performance). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be
discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by, and each Guarantor hereby waives any defense to the enforcement hereof by reason of: 

(i)    the failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or
to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; 

(ii)    any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, increase in the Guaranteed Obligations with
respect to, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement; 

  
 3 

 (iii)    the failure to perfect any security interest
in, or the exchange, substitution, release or any impairment of, any security held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(iv)    any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed
Obligations; 
 (v)    any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary
the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash or immediately available funds of all the Guaranteed Obligations); 

(vi)    any illegality, lack of validity or enforceability of any Guaranteed Obligation or the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document; 
 (vii)    any change in the corporate existence, structure or
ownership of any Loan Party, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting a Loan Party or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any Guaranteed Obligation; 

(viii)    the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that
a Guarantor may have at any time against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, or any other corporation or person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein will prevent the assertion of any
such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; 
 (ix)    any action permitted or authorized
hereunder; or 
 (x)    (A) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of
limitations, law, regulation, decree or order of any jurisdiction) or (B) any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent, in each case, that might otherwise constitute a defense to, or a legal or equitable
discharge of, the Borrower or any Guarantor for its Guaranteed Obligations or any other guarantor or surety. 
 Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the
Secured Parties to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order
and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder. 

(b)    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives diligence, promptness, presentment, protest
and notice of protest, demand for payment or performance, notice of default or nonpayment, notice of acceptance and any 

  
 4 

 
other notice with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part of them to or upon the Borrower or any Guarantor with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, any defense based on or arising
out of disability or any defense of any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Loan Party, other than the payment in
full in cash or immediately available funds of all the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent or unliquidated obligations or liabilities). The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any
security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any
other Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations (other than
contingent or unliquidated obligations or liabilities) have been paid in full in cash or immediately available funds. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though
such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security. 

(c)    Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any
Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party
and any of the Guaranteed Obligations continued, and the Guaranteed Obligations, or the liability of any other person upon or for any part thereof, or any Collateral or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to
time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, and the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other
documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time
to time, and any Collateral, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the
Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2.03 or any
property subject thereto. 
 Section 2.04.    Reinstatement. Each Guarantor agrees that its guarantee
hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured
Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Loan Party or any
substantial part of its property, or otherwise. 

  
 5 

 Section 2.05.    Agreement to Pay; Contribution;
Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, but subject to the limitations set
forth in Section 2.07, upon the failure of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to pay any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each
Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the applicable Secured Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Guaranteed Obligation. Subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 2.07, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Secured Party under this Agreement, such Guarantor will contribute in respect of its Guaranteed
Obligations, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts to each other Guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Secured Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the
Administrative Agent as provided above or upon enforcement of any Security Documents granted by any Guarantor, all rights of such Guarantor against the applicable Borrower or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of
subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article III. 

Section 2.06.    Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself
informed of the financial condition and assets of the Borrower and each other Loan Party, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such
Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks. 

Section 2.07.    Maximum Liability(a) . Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent and each Secured Party hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Agreement and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes
of the Bankruptcy Code or any other federal, or state bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to
this Agreement and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each Guarantor under
this Agreement at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor under this Agreement not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

Section 2.08.    Payment Free and Clear of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any
obligation of any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan 

  
 6 

 
Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction for, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes on the same terms and to the same extent that payments by the Borrower are required to be
made pursuant to the terms of Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement. The provisions of Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to each Guarantor mutatis mutandis. 

Section 2.09.    Additional Subsidiary Parties. The guarantee of any Subsidiary Loan Party that becomes
a party hereto pursuant to Section 4.12 shall be subject to the limitations (if any) set forth in the applicable Supplement relating to such guarantee. 

ARTICLE III 

Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination 

Section 3.01.    Indemnity. In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as the
Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 3.03 hereof), the Borrower agrees that (a) in the event a payment shall be made by any Guarantor (including another Borrower, in its capacity as a Guarantor hereunder) under
this Agreement in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation of the Borrower, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the person to whom such payment shall
have been made to the extent of such payment and (b) in the event any assets of any Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to a Security Document to satisfy in whole or in part a Guaranteed Obligation owed to any Secured Party by the Borrower, the
Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of the book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold 

Section 3.02.    Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing
Guarantor”) agrees (subject to Section 3.03 hereof) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation, or assets of any other Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to any
Security Document to satisfy any Guaranteed Obligation owed to any Secured Party and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower as provided in Section 3.01
hereof, the Contributing Guarantor shall indemnify the Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such payment or the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets, as applicable, in each case multiplied by a fraction
of which the numerator shall be the net worth of such Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto
pursuant to Section 4.12 hereof, the date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be subrogated to the
rights of such Claiming Guarantor under Section 3.01 hereof to the extent of such payment. 

  
 7 

 Section 3.03.    Subordination; Subrogation. (a)
Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.07, to the extent permitted by law and to the extent to do so would not constitute unlawful financial assistance, each Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all debts, liabilities and other
Obligations owed to such Guarantor by each other Loan Party (the “Subordinated Obligations”) to the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 3.03: 

(i)    Prohibited Payments, Etc. Each Guarantor may receive payments from any other Loan
Party on account of the Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, if requested by the Administrative Agent or required by the Required Lenders, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any
action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations until the Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash. 

(ii)    Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. In any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code
or any other federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law in any jurisdiction relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive irrevocable payment in full in cash
of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law in any jurisdiction,
whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding (“Post-Petition Interest”)) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations. 

(iii)    Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default,
each Guarantor shall, if the Administrative Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for (or, in any jurisdiction whose law does not include the concept of trusts, for the account
of) the Secured Parties and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post-Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without
reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Agreement. 

(iv)    Administrative Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, the
Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition Interest), and (ii) to require each Guarantor (A) to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect
of, the Subordinated Obligations and (B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Administrative Agent for application to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition Interest). 

  
 8 

 (b)    Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.07, each
Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment,
performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under or in respect of the guarantee set forth in Article II or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration,
contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Secured Party against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises
in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under the guarantee set forth in
Article II shall have been paid in full in cash, the Commitments shall have been terminated and each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to bring any action, claim, suit or other proceeding in respect of any right it may have in respect of
any payment on its guarantee until such time. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts
payable under the guarantee set forth in Article II such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered
to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under the guarantee set forth in Article II, whether
matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under such guarantee thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to
any Secured Party of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under the guarantee set forth in Article II shall have been paid in full in cash and (iii) the
Maturity Date shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent will, at such Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to
evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment made by such Guarantor pursuant to such guarantee. 

Section 3.04.    Further Assurances. Each Guarantor agrees, upon the written request of the
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, from time to time, any additional instruments or documents reasonably considered necessary or advisable by the Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent to cause this Guarantee Agreement to be, become or remain valid and effective in accordance with its terms.

 ARTICLE IV 

Miscellaneous 

Section 4.01.    Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly
permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Subsidiary Loan Party shall be given to it in care of Hexion, with such notice to be given as
provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. 
 Section 4.02.    Limitation By Law. All
rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all
applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Agreement invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, under the provisions of any applicable law. 

Section 4.03.    Binding Effect; Several Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any
party to this Agreement when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such party shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be
binding upon such party and the Administrative Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such party, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective permitted
successors and assigns, except that no party shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement
or the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each party and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any party without the approval of any other party and
without affecting the obligations of any other party hereunder. 
 Section 4.04.    Successors and
Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any
Guarantor or the Administrative Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective permitted successors and assigns; provided that no Guarantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights
or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. 

Section 4.05.    Administrative Agent’s Fees and Expenses;
Indemnification. (a) The parties hereto agree that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement. 

  
 10 

 (b)    Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the
other Loan Documents, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the other Indemnitees (as defined in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, (i) the execution,
delivery or performance of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of
the Transactions and other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) the use of proceeds of the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, or to the Collateral, whether or not any
Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by
final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 

(c)    Subject to the terms of the Security Documents, any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional
Guaranteed Obligations secured by the Collateral Agreement and the other Security Documents. The provisions of this Section 4.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.07, all amounts due under this Section 4.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor,
accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested. 

Section 4.06.    Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Secured
Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps
to enforce such a right, power or remedy, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights, powers and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 4.06, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at
the time. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 

  
 11 

 (b)    Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived,
amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent
required in accordance with Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement. 

Section 4.07.    Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provisions. 
 Section 4.08.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 4.03
hereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or other electronic means shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed original. 

Section 4.09.    Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for
convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

Section 4.10.    Applicable Law; Jurisdiction; Venue; Consent to Service of Process; Waiver of
Jury Trial. (a) The terms of Sections 9.07, 9.11 and 9.15 of the Credit Agreement with respect to applicable law, consent to jurisdiction, venue, waiver of trial by jury and agent of process are incorporated herein by reference,
mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto agree to such terms (and, for the avoidance of doubt, as incorporated into this Agreement, Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to each party hereto). 

(b)    Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in
Section 4.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

Section 4.11.    Termination or Release. (a) This Agreement and the guarantees made herein shall
terminate on the Termination Date. 
 (b)    A Guarantor shall automatically be released from its guarantee and its
obligations hereunder (i) upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of Hexion or otherwise ceases to be a Guarantor, subject, if applicable, to
consent required in accordance with Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement and/or (ii) to the extent provided in Section 9.18 of the Credit Agreement. 

  
 12 

 (c)    In connection with any termination or release pursuant to
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 4.11, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Guarantor, at such Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or
release; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action under this Section 4.11(c) unless such Guarantor shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent together with such request, which may be
incorporated into such request, a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that the transaction giving rise to such termination or release is permitted by the Credit Agreement and was consummated in compliance with the Loan Documents. Any
execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 4.11 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. 

Section 4.12.    Additional Guarantors. Upon execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent and any
Subsidiary that is required to become a party hereto by Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement of an instrument in the form of Exhibit A hereto (with such additions to such form as the Administrative Agent and Hexion may reasonably agree
in the case of any such Subsidiary) (a “Supplement”), such entity shall become a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor herein. The execution and delivery of any such
instrument shall not require the consent of any other party to this Agreement. The rights and obligations of each party to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new party to this Agreement. 

Section 4.13.    Right of Set-Off. The terms of
Section 9.06 of the Credit Agreement with respect to right of set-off are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis. 

  
 13 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above
written.

 Exhibit A to the 

Guarantee Agreement 
 SUPPLEMENT
NO.             , dated as of                      (this
“Supplement”), to the Guarantee Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2019 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Guarantee Agreement”), among HEXION LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”), HEXION INC., a New Jersey corporation (“Hexion”), HEXION INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS B.V., a private limited liability company (besloten vennootschap met
beperkte aansprakelijkheid) incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands (the “Borrower”), each other Subsidiary of Hexion identified herein as a party and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as administrative agent and
collateral agent (together with its successors and assigns, in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for the Secured Parties (as defined therein). 

A.    Reference is made to the Senior Secured Term Loan Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2019 (as amended, restated,
supplemented, waived or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Holdings, Hexion, the Borrower, the Lenders from time to time party thereto, the Administrative Agent, and the other parties named
therein. 
 B.    Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to
such terms in the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee Agreement, as applicable. 
 C.    The Existing Guarantors have
entered into the Guarantee Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans. Section 4.12 of the Guarantee Agreement provides that additional Subsidiaries may become Guarantors under the Guarantee Agreement by execution and delivery of an
instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Subsidiary (the “New Guarantor”) is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Guarantor under the Guarantee
Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and as consideration for Loans previously made. 
 Accordingly, the
Administrative Agent and the New Guarantor agree as follows: 
 SECTION 1.    In accordance with Section 4.12 of
the Guarantee Agreement, the New Guarantor by its signature below becomes a Guarantor under the Guarantee Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Guarantor and the New Guarantor hereby agrees to all the terms and
provisions of the Guarantee Agreement applicable to it as a Guarantor thereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Guarantor does hereby guarantee to the Administrative Agent the due and punctual payment of the Guaranteed Obligations as set
forth in the Guarantee Agreement. Each reference to a “Guarantor” in the Guarantee Agreement and in this Supplement shall be deemed to include the New Guarantor. The Guarantee Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference. 

  
 A-1 

 SECTION 2.    The New Guarantor represents and warrants to the
Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to
(i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing. 
 SECTION
3.    The New Guarantor is a [company] duly [incorporated or organized] under the laws of [name of relevant jurisdiction]. 

SECTION 4.    This Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original
but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract. This Supplement shall become effective when (a) the Administrative Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that bears the signature of the New Guarantor
and (b) the Administrative Agent has executed a counterpart hereof. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of
this Supplement. 
 SECTION 5.    Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Guarantee Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect. 
 SECTION 6.    THIS SUPPLEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS
SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 SECTION
7.    In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained
herein and in the Guarantee Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect
of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 SECTION 8.    All
communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted by the Guarantee Agreement) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 9.    The New Guarantor agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel to the Administrative Agent
to the extent required by Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement. 

  
 A-2 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Guarantor and the Administrative Agent have duly executed this
Supplement to the Guarantee Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
