                      As Revised through January 22, 2001

     1.   Purpose. The purpose of this Executive Income Continuity Plan (this
Plan) is to retain the services of executives in the senior management group of
Cytec Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries and to reinforce and encourage the
continuing attention, dedication and loyalty of these executives without the
distraction of concern over the possibility of involuntary or constructive
termination of employment resulting from unforeseen developments, by providing
income continuity for a limited period.

     2.   Definitions. Unless the context otherwise requires, the following
terms shall have the meanings respectively indicated:

          (a)  "Board of Directors" shall mean the board of directors of Cytec
     Industries Inc.

          (b)  "Cause" shall mean (A) the willful and continued failure by a

     than any such failure resulting from his incapacity due to physical or
     mental illness), after a demand for substantial performance is delivered to
     him by the Company which specifically identifies the manner in which the
     Company believes that he has not substantially performed his duties, or (B)
     the willful engaging by him in conduct demonstrably injurious to the
     Company. For purposes of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on the
     part of a Plan Member shall be considered "willful" unless done, or omitted
     to be done, by him without reasonable belief that his action or omission
     was in the best interests of the Company and was lawful.

          (c)  A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i)
     any "person", as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the
     Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") (other
     than the Company,
<PAGE>

     any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit
     plan of the Company, or any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the
     stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their
     ownership of stock of the Company), is or becomes the "beneficial owner"
     (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly,
     of securities of the Company representing 20% or more (except as

     then outstanding securities; or (ii) there occurs any transaction or action
     which results in the individuals who at the beginning of a period
     commencing 24 hours prior to the commencement of the transaction were

     substantially all of its assets, or to adopt a plan of liquidation of the
     Company. Notwithstanding clause (i) above, beneficial ownership by a
     financial institution of securities of the Company representing 20% or more
     of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities

     Directors meeting occurring five days or more after the Company receives
     written notice of such event, and prior to the occurrence of an event
     described in clause (ii) above, the Board of Directors adopts a resolution
     to the effect that such ownership does not constitute a Change in Control;
     provided that (x) such a resolution shall not remain in effect for any
     further five percent (5%) increase in such financial institution's
     beneficial ownership, unless the Board of Directors so determines in
     accordance with a further resolution adopted by the Board of Directors in
     accordance with the procedures set forth in this sentence, (y) such
     resolution may be revoked by the Board of Directors at any time, and (z)

     conditions on its determination that such event does not constitute a
     Change in Control.

          (d)  "Company" shall mean Cytec Industries Inc. and, except for the
     purposes of paragraph (c) of this Section,

                                       2

     Member is terminated by his death, the date of his death, (B) if such

     concerning the termination, the Date of Termination shall be the date on
     which the dispute is finally resolved, either by mutual written agreement
     of the parties or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of
     competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefrom having expired and no
     appeal having been perfected).

          authority or position which represents a demotion (actual or de facto)

in Control, the payments shall be payable in a single lump sum payment at the
time of the Notice of Termination.

     (c) Except for the lump sum payments, which shall be paid immediately as

     termination (including all such fees and expenses, if any, incurred in
     contesting or disputing any such termination or in seeking to obtain or
     enforce any right or benefit provided by this Plan or in connection with
     any tax audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the application
     of Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to any
     payment or benefit provided hereunder); and

          (b)  during the period of two years following the Date of
     Termination, all reasonable expenses incurred by him in seeking comparable
     employment with another employer to the

<PAGE>

     extent not otherwise reimbursed to him, including, without limitation, the
     fees and expenses of a reputable out placement organization, and reasonable
     travel, telephone and office expenses.

     7.   Competitive Employment. The Company, at its option, may discontinue
any payments being made to any Plan Member pursuant to Section 5 or Section 6 if
such Plan Member engages in the operation or management of any business in the
United States of America, whether as owner, stockholder, partner, officer,
consultant, employee or otherwise, which at such time is in competition with any
business of the Company in any field with which such Plan Member was involved
during the last two years of his employment by the Company. Ownership by such
Plan Member of five percent or less of the shares of stock of any company listed
on a national securities exchange or having at least 100 stockholders shall not
make such Plan Member a "stockholder" within the meaning of that term as used in
this Section.

     8.   Maintenance of Other Benefit Plans. The Company shall maintain in full
force and effect, for the continued benefit of each Plan Member entitled to
receive payments pursuant to Section 5, for two years following his Date of
Termination, all employee benefit plans and programs or arrangements (including
Comprehensive Medical and Dental Insurance, Group Life Insurance, and Financial
Planning and Tax Preparation and Counseling Services, but not including
disability) in which he was entitled to participate at the time the Notice of
Termination was given, provided that if his continued participation is not
permitted under the general terms and provisions of such plans and programs, the
Company shall provide equivalent benefits.

     9.   No Mitigation. No Plan Member shall be required to mitigate the amount
of any payment provided for under this Plan by seeking other employment or
otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment so provided for be reduced by any
compensation earned by any Plan Member as the result of employment by another
employer, by retirement benefits or by offset against any amount claimed to be
owed by him to the Company.

     10.  Successors.  The Company will require any successor (whether direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and assets of the Company, by a written
