	4.	Vesting and Forfeiture 

  

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

  

	 	b.	If a Participant’s employment with the Company or a subsidiary terminates for cause or without the Company’s consent (other than as the result of the Participant’s
death, disability or retirement) before a Performance Share Award has vested, his or her Performance Share Award shall terminate and all rights under such Award shall be forfeited. 

  

	 	c.	If a Participant’s employment with the Company or a subsidiary terminates as the result of his or her disability, (as that term is defined in Section 409A of the Code or
any successor provision), or retirement under any of the Company’s retirement plans before a Performance Share Award has vested, the Participant shall be entitled to a pro rata Performance Share Award, payable solely in cash at the time that
the Performance Share Award would otherwise be payable under Section 5. The cash payment shall be equal to the Final Share Number calculated in accordance with Sections 3 and 5 of this Program, multiplied by the Fair Market Value on the last
day of the relevant Performance Cycle, multiplied by a fraction with a numerator equal to the number of months during the Performance Cycle the Participant was employed by the Company or a subsidiary (rounded up to the nearest whole month) and a
denominator of 36. 

  

	 	d.	If a Participant’s employment with the Company or a subsidiary terminates as the result of his or her death before a Performance Share Award has vested, the Participant shall
be entitled to a pro rata Performance Share Award, payable solely in cash, as soon as practicable after his or her death. The cash payment shall be equal to the Participant’s target number of Performance Shares or Senior Performance Shares, as
the case may be, multiplied by the Fair Market Value on the date of the Participant’s death (or the next trading day, if the Common Stock was not traded on such date), multiplied by a fraction with a numerator equal to the number of months
during the Performance Cycle the Participant was employed by the Company or a subsidiary (rounded up to the nearest whole month) and a denominator of 36. 

  

	 	e.	If a Participant’s employment with the Company or a subsidiary terminates for any other reason, the Company shall determine the portion, if any, of the Performance Share Award
that shall not be forfeited, and the form of payment (cash or shares or a combination) that the Participant shall receive. That determination shall be made by the Committee in the case of any officer, and by the Chairman of the Board, President,
Chief Executive Officer, or any Vice President, in the case of any non-officer employee.

	5.	Payment 

  

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

  

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

  

	6.	Deferral 

  
 A Participant may elect to defer payment of shares of Common Stock or cash pursuant to this Program in accordance with the terms of the Olin Corporation
Employee Deferral Plan, provided that the Election, as defined in such plan shall be filed on or before December 31 of the last year of the Performance Cycle, and further provided that such deferral election shall comply with all provisions
under Section 409A of the Code. 
  

	7.	Miscellaneous 

  

	 	a.	By acceptance of the Performance Share Award, each Participant agrees that such Award is special compensation, and that any amount paid will not affect: 

  

	 	i.	the amount of any pension under any pension or retirement plan in which he or she participates as an employee of Olin, 

  

	 	ii.	the amount of coverage under any group life insurance plan in which he or she participates as an employee of Olin, or 

  

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

  

	 	b.	The Company will withhold from the distribution of any cash pursuant to Performance Share Awards the amount necessary to satisfy the Participant’s federal, state and local
withholding tax requirements. 

  

	 	c.	It is the Company’s intention that all income tax liability on Performance Share Awards be deferred in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code for
nonqualified deferred compensation plans, until the participant actually receives such shares or payment therefore. To the extent Section 409A applies to this Program or the Performance Shares, the Performance Share Awards and this Program
shall be deemed amended to comply with Section 409A, to the extent permitted by law, and the Performance Share Awards and this Program shall be construed in favor of meeting the requirements for deferral of compensation under Section 409A.
