With respect to the portion of the 2017 calendar year that begins on and after the applicable Employee Transfer Date for each Venator Group Employee, Venator, or an appropriate Venator Entity, shall bear responsibility for payroll taxes, fringe benefit tax obligations, proper withholding, document distribution and reporting to the appropriate governmental authorities for each Venator Group Employee. The Parties agree that neither Venator nor an applicable Venator Entity will be treated as a “successor employer” of Huntsman or an applicable Huntsman Entity. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the entity for which the relevant employee is currently employed or, if such individual is not currently employed by Huntsman or Venator, was most recently employed at the time of the vesting, exercise, disqualifying disposition, payment or other relevant taxable event, as appropriate, in respect of equity awards and other compensation shall be entitled to claim any income tax deduction in respect of such equity awards and other compensation on its respective tax return associated with such event. Unless otherwise prohibited by applicable Law, any members of the Huntsman Group and the Venator Group may enter into separate reimbursement agreements regarding income tax deductions if the Parties mutually agree that the deduction should have gone to an entity other than the entity that received the income tax deduction on its respective tax return.

(h) Employment Contracts; Expatriate Obligations. Effective as of the Employee Transfer Date, Venator will assume and honor, or will cause a member of the Venator Group to assume and honor, any agreements to which any Venator Group Employee is party with any Huntsman Entity, including any (i) employment contract, executive agreement, offer letter, indemnification or consulting agreement, (ii) retention, severance or change of control arrangement or (iii) expatriate or relocation contract or arrangement (including agreements and obligations regarding repatriation, relocation, equalization of taxes and living standards in the host country).

(i) Collective Bargaining Agreements. Schedule 3.1(i) sets forth a list of collective bargaining agreements, collective agreements, trade union or works council agreements and any other contractual or other obligation to a labor union, trade union, works council or other representative of any Venator Group Employee relating to the Venator Group Employees in effect on the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Collective Bargaining Agreements”). Prior to the Plan Transfer Date, Huntsman and Venator will take or cause to be taken all actions necessary (if any) to cause a Venator Entity to continue sponsorship of the Collective Bargaining Agreements. Huntsman and Venator shall cooperate in submitting and completing any required successor employer application, or similar application or notice, in order to effectuate any such assignment. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to alter the provisions of any Collective Bargaining Agreement or modify in any way the obligations owed

to the Employees covered by any such agreement. The Huntsman Group shall have no Liability for or under any collective bargaining agreements, collective agreements, multiemployer plans, pension and welfare plans and arrangements, labor union, trade union or works council agreements that related to the Venator Business and which were entered into with any member of the Huntsman Group, any union, works council, or representative of any Venator Group Employee, and such agreements, plans, and arrangements (if any) shall, to the extent permitted under applicable Law and their respective terms, be assigned from the applicable Huntsman Entity to Venator (or a Venator Entity designated by Venator) effective as of the Plan Transfer Date and Venator shall cooperate in submitting and completing any required successor employer application, or similar application or notice, in order to effectuate any such assignment.

Section 3.2 Employment Law Obligations.

With respect to the time period occurring on and after the Effective Date, each member of the Huntsman Group shall be responsible for adopting and maintaining any policies or practices, and for all other actions and inactions, necessary to comply with employment-related Laws and requirements relating to the employment of Huntsman Group Employees and the treatment of any applicable Former Huntsman Group Employees in respect of their employment. Each member of the Venator Group shall be responsible for adopting and maintaining any policies or practices, and for all other actions and inactions, necessary to comply with employment-related Laws and requirements relating to the employment of Venator Group Employees on or after the Employee Transfer Date.

Section 3.3 Employee Records.

(a) Sharing of Information. Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable Law, Huntsman and Venator (acting directly or through members of the Huntsman Group or the Venator Group, respectively) shall provide to the other and their respective agents and vendors all information reasonably necessary for the Parties to perform their respective duties under this Agreement. The Parties also hereby agree to enter into any business associate arrangements that may be required for the sharing of any information pursuant to this Agreement to comply with the requirements of HIPAA (or other applicable Law).

(b) Transfer of Personnel Records and Authorization. Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable Law, as soon as administratively feasible following the Employee Transfer Date, Huntsman shall transfer and assign to Venator all personnel records, all immigration documents, including I-9 forms and work authorizations, all payroll deduction authorizations and elections, whether voluntary or mandated by Law, including but not limited to

W-4 forms and deductions for benefits under the applicable Venator Benefit Plans and all absence management records, Family and Medical Leave Act and employee leave records, insurance beneficiary designations, flexible spending account enrollment confirmations, attendance, and return to work information (“Benefit Management Records”). Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable Law, Huntsman, however, may retain originals of, copies of, or access to Benefit Management Records as long as necessary to provide services to Venator (acting pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement). Venator will use Benefit Management Records for lawful purposes only, including calculation of withholdings from wages and personnel management. It is understood that following the IPO, Huntsman records so transferred and assigned may be maintained by Venator (acting directly or through one of its Subsidiaries) pursuant to Venator’s applicable records retention policy.

(c) Access to Records. To the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement and any applicable Laws, reasonable access to Employee-related records after the Employee Transfer Date will be provided to members of the Huntsman Group and members of the Venator Group pursuant to the terms and conditions of Article VII of the Separation Agreement. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Venator shall provide Huntsman with reasonable access to those records necessary for its administration of any plans or programs on behalf of Huntsman Group Employees and Former Huntsman Group Employees after the IPO as permitted by any applicable Laws. Huntsman shall also be permitted to retain copies of all restrictive covenant agreements with any Venator Group Employee in which any member of the Huntsman Group has a valid business interest. In addition, Huntsman shall provide Venator with reasonable access to those records necessary for its administration of any plans or programs on behalf of Venator Group Employees after the applicable Employee Transfer Date or Plan Transfer Date as permitted by any applicable Laws. Venator shall also be permitted to retain copies of all restrictive covenant agreements with any Huntsman Group Employee or Former Huntsman Group Employee in which any member of the Venator Group has a valid business interest.

(d) Maintenance of Records. With respect to retaining, destroying, transferring, sharing, copying and permitting access to all Employee-related information, Huntsman and Venator shall comply with all applicable Laws and shall indemnify and hold harmless each other from and against any and all Liability, claims, actions, and damages that arise from a failure (by the indemnifying party or its Subsidiaries or their respective agents) to so comply with all applicable Laws applicable to such information.

(e) No Access to Computer Systems or Files. Except as set forth in the Separation Agreement, any Transfer Document or pursuant to any other agreement reached between the Parties, generally no provision of this Agreement shall give (i) any member of the Huntsman Group direct access to the computer systems or other files, records or databases of any member of the Venator Group or (ii) any member of the Venator Group direct access to the computer systems or other files, records or databases of any member of the Huntsman Group, unless specifically permitted by the owner of such systems, files, records or databases.

The provisions of this Section 3.3(f) shall be in addition to, and not in derogation of, the provisions of the Separation Agreement governing confidential information, including Section 7.7 of the Separation Agreement. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all records and data relating to Employees shall, in each case, be subject to the

confidentiality provisions of the Separation Agreement and any other applicable agreement and applicable Law.

ARTICLE IV
EQUITY AND LONG-TERM INCENTIVE AWARDS

Section 4.1 General Principles.

(a) Additional Actions. Huntsman and Venator shall take any and all reasonable actions as shall be necessary and appropriate to further the provisions of this Article IV, including, to the extent practicable, providing written notice or similar communication to each individual who holds one or more awards granted under any of the Huntsman Equity Plans informing such individual of (i) the actions contemplated by this Article IV with respect to such awards and (ii) whether (and during what time period) any “blackout” period shall be imposed upon holders of awards granted under any of the Huntsman Equity Plans during which time awards may not be exercised or settled, as the case may be.

(b) Service Recognition; Change of Control. From and after the IPO, (i) a grantee who has outstanding awards under one or more of the Huntsman Equity Plans and/or replacement awards under the Venator New Equity Plan shall be considered to have been employed by (or otherwise providing services to) the applicable plan sponsor before and after the IPO for purposes of (x) vesting and (y) determining the date of termination of employment (or any other applicable service relationship) as it applies to any such award and (ii) for purposes of determining whether any “change of control” has occurred with respect to any Huntsman LTI Award or Venator LTI Award, (x) a “change of control” shall only be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any award that is governed by the Huntsman Equity Plans upon a “change of control” of Huntsman and (y) a “change of control” shall only be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any award that is governed by the Venator New Equity Plan upon a “change of control” of Venator.

(c) Consistency with Applicable Laws. No award described in this Article IV, whether outstanding or to be issued, adjusted, substituted or cancelled by reason of or in connection with the IPO, shall be adjusted, settled, cancelled, or exercisable, until in the judgment of the administrator of the applicable plan or program such action is consistent with all applicable Laws, including federal securities Laws and any foreign jurisdiction rules and regulations that may be applicable to the award or to the holder thereof. Any period of exercisability will not be extended on account of a period during which such an award is not exercisable pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(d) ASC 718. The adjustment or conversion of Huntsman LTI Awards pursuant to this Article IV is intended to be effectuated in a manner so as to result in each adjusted Huntsman LTI Award or Venator LTI Award, as applicable, having an aggregate “fair value” and an “intrinsic value” (in each case, within the meaning of ASC 718 and determined in accordance therewith), as of immediately following the IPO, that shall not be materially greater than the fair value and intrinsic value of the related Huntsman LTI Award immediately prior to the IPO.

(e) Section 409A of the Code. The adjustment or conversion of Huntsman LTI Awards shall be effectuated in a manner that is intended to avoid the imposition of any penalty or other taxes on the holders thereof pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.

Section 4.2 Equity Award Treatment.

(a) Vested Huntsman Options. Each Huntsman Option that is vested but not yet exercised immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day shall continue to be exercisable for Huntsman Common Stock, subject to the same terms and conditions set forth in the Huntsman Equity Plans and as provided in any individual award agreement governing such Huntsman Option; provided, however, that from and after the Venator Trading Day, the vesting of each Huntsman Option shall be determined based upon continued service with the Venator Group rather than the Huntsman Group.

(b) Unvested Huntsman Options. Each holder of a Huntsman Option that is unvested immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day shall, upon the Venator Trading Day, have their rights to the Huntsman Option cancelled and the participants rights under each such Huntsman Option shall be converted into the right to receive a stock option award granted pursuant to the Venator New Equity Plan with respect to Venator Ordinary Shares (the “Venator Options”). The number of Venator Options to be granted to each applicable participant shall be determined by multiplying the number of Huntsman Common Stock subject to the Huntsman Option by the Equity Award Ratio (rounded to the nearest whole share of Venator Ordinary Shares). The exercise price of each new Venator Option shall be determined by dividing the exercise price of the original Huntsman Option by the Equity Award Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Each Venator Option described in the preceding sentences shall be subject to the same terms and conditions after the Venator Trading Day as the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Huntsman Option immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day, including vesting restrictions and the original term of the award; provided, however, that from and after the Venator Trading Day, the vesting and exercisability of each Venator Option shall be determined based upon continued service with the Venator Group rather than the Huntsman Group.

(c) Huntsman Phantom Shares. Each holder of a Huntsman Phantom Share that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day shall, upon the Venator Trading Day, have their rights to the Huntsman Phantom Share cancelled and the participants rights under each such Huntsman Phantom Share shall be converted into the right to receive a restricted stock unit award granted pursuant to the Venator New Equity Plan with respect to Venator Ordinary Shares (the “Venator Restricted Stock Unit” or “Venator RSU”). The number of Venator RSUs to be granted to each applicable participant shall be determined by

multiplying the number of Huntsman Common Stock subject to the Huntsman Phantom Share by the Equity Award Ratio (rounded to the nearest whole share of Venator Ordinary Shares). Each Venator RSU described in the preceding sentences shall be subject to the same terms and conditions after the Venator Trading Day as the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Huntsman Phantom Share immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day, including vesting restrictions; provided, however, that from and after the Venator Trading Day, the vesting of each Venator RSU shall be determined based upon continued service with the Venator Group rather than the Huntsman Group, and provided, further, however, that in the event that applicable laws and regulations of the United Kingdom require that an award granted pursuant to the Venator New Equity Plan must be accompanied by a nil or nominal payment for such award by the participant, or such award must be settled in cash rather than Venator Common Stock, Venator shall design the applicable Venator RSUs in a matter that complies with such a requirement.

(d) Huntsman Restricted Stock. Each holder of Huntsman Restricted Stock that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day shall, upon the Venator Trading Day, have their rights to the Huntsman Restricted Stock cancelled and the participants rights under each such Huntsman Restricted Stock shall be converted into the right to receive a Venator Restricted Stock Unit. The number of Venator RSUs to be granted to each applicable participant shall be determined by multiplying the number of Huntsman Common Stock subject to the Huntsman Restricted Stock by the Equity Award Ratio (rounded to the nearest whole share of Venator Ordinary Shares). Each Venator RSU described in the preceding sentences shall be subject to the same terms and conditions after the Venator Trading Day as the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Huntsman Restricted Stock immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day, including vesting restrictions; provided, however, that from and after the Venator Trading Day, the vesting of each Venator RSU shall be determined based upon continued service with the Venator Group rather than the Huntsman Group, and provided, further, however, that in the event that applicable laws and regulations of the United Kingdom require that an award granted pursuant to the Venator New Equity Plan must be accompanied by a nil or nominal payment for such award by the participant, or such award must be settled in cash rather than Venator Common Stock, Venator shall design the applicable Venator RSUs in a matter that complies with such a requirement.

(e) Huntsman Restricted Stock Units. Each holder of a Huntsman RSU that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day shall, upon the Venator Trading Day, have their rights to the Huntsman RSU cancelled and the participants rights under each such Huntsman RSU shall be converted into the right to receive a Venator Restricted Stock Unit. The number of Venator RSUs to be granted to each applicable participant shall be determined by multiplying the number of Huntsman Common Stock subject to the Huntsman RSU by the Equity Award Ratio (rounded to the nearest whole share of Venator Ordinary Shares); provided, however, that in the event that the Huntsman RSU was subject to one or more performance conditions immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day, the target number of Huntsman Common Stock subject to the Huntsman RSU shall first be adjusted by the performance factor actually achieved immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day to determine the number of Huntsman RSUs that are deemed to be “earned” immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day (the “Adjusted Huntsman RSUs”), and the number of Venator RSUs to be granted to each applicable participant shall then be determined by multiplying the number of Huntsman

Common Stock subject to the Adjusted Huntsman RSU by the Equity Award Ratio (rounded to the nearest whole share of Venator Ordinary Shares). Each Venator RSU described in the preceding sentences shall be subject to the same terms and conditions after the Venator Trading Day as the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Huntsman RSU immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day; provided, however, that in the event that the original Huntsman RSUs were subject to one or more performance conditions prior to the conversions described in this paragraph, the corresponding new Venator RSU shall not be subject to any performance conditions from and after the Venator Trading Day, and provided, further, however, that from and after the Venator Trading Day, the time-based vesting conditions of each Venator RSU shall be determined based upon continued service with the Venator Group rather than the Huntsman Group, and provided, further, however, that in the event that applicable laws and regulations of the United Kingdom require that an award granted pursuant to the Venator New Equity Plan must be accompanied by a nil or nominal payment for such award by the participant, or such award must be settled in cash rather than Venator Common Stock, Venator shall design the applicable Venator RSUs in a matter that complies with such a requirement.

(f) Accrued Dividends. To the extent that any Huntsman LTI Award has accrued dividends or dividend equivalent rights that had not yet been paid out or otherwise settled immediately prior to the Venator Trading Day (the “Dividend Accounts”), Venator shall keep a bookkeeping account or accounts equal to the Dividend Account amount applicable to each individual that was the holder of a cancelled Huntsman LTI Award and recipient of a related Venator LTI Award. The Dividend Accounts shall be subject to the same terms and conditions, including vesting and forfeiture provisions, that were applicable to the original Huntsman LTI Award to which such Dividend Account relates; provided, however, that from and after the Venator Trading Day, the time-based vesting conditions that were applicable to the original Huntsman LTI Award to which the Dividend Account relates shall be determined based upon continued service with the Venator Group rather than the Huntsman Group. Huntsman shall transfer the cash amount of such Dividend Accounts to Venator or the appropriate member of the Venator Group immediately following the time or times at which the Dividend Accounts become eligible to be settled and Venator or an applicable member of the Venator Group settles such Dividend Accounts, and Huntsman and Venator shall cooperate to ensure the timely transfer and receipt of the necessary funds. For purposes of clarity, the termination of any Huntsman LTI Award that occurs solely as a result of the conversion of the holder’s rights into a Venator LTI Award as described in this Section 4.2 shall not result in the forfeiture of the related Dividend Account.

(g) Other Legal and Administrative Matters. Notwithstanding the conversion terms set forth in the remainder of this Section 4.2, Venator or an appropriate member of the Venator Group shall have the authority pursuant to the Venator New Equity Plan to modify the terms and conditions of any Venator LTI Award if the plan administrator of the Venator New Equity Plan determines that it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with any foreign legal, securities or administrative issues that impact the Venator LTI Awards, provided that such a modification does not result in the violation of any U.S.-based Laws or regulations.

Section 4.3 Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act; Code Sections 162(m) and 409A.

(a) Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act. By approving the adoption of this Agreement, the respective Boards of Directors of each of Huntsman and Venator intend to exempt from the short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by reason of the application of Rule 16b-3 thereunder, all acquisitions and dispositions of equity incentive awards by directors and officers of each of the Huntsman Group and the Venator Group, and the respective Boards of Directors of Huntsman and Venator also intend expressly to approve, in respect of any equity-based award, the use of any method for the payment of an exercise price and the satisfaction of any applicable tax withholding (specifically including the actual or constructive tendering of shares in payment of an exercise price and the withholding of award shares from delivery in satisfaction of applicable tax withholding requirements) to the extent such method is permitted under the applicable Huntsman Equity Plan, Venator New Equity Plan and award agreement.

(b) Code Sections 162(m) and 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including the treatment of supplemental and deferred compensation plans, outstanding long-term incentive awards and annual incentive awards as described herein), Huntsman and Venator agree to negotiate in good faith regarding the need for any treatment different from that otherwise provided herein to ensure that (i) a federal income tax deduction for the payment of such supplemental or deferred compensation or long-term incentive award, annual incentive award or other compensation is, to the extent prescribed under the terms of the applicable plan and award agreement, not limited by reason of Section 162(m) of the Code, and (ii) the treatment of such supplemental or deferred compensation or long-term incentive award, annual incentive award or other compensation does not cause the imposition of a penalty tax under Section 409A of the Code.

Section 4.4 Liabilities for Settlement of Awards. Except as provided for pursuant to Section 4.6, from and after the Venator Trading Day (a) Huntsman shall be responsible for all Liabilities associated with Huntsman LTI Awards, including any exercise, share delivery, registration or other obligations related to the exercise, vesting or settlement of the Huntsman LTI Awards and (b) Venator shall be responsible for all Liabilities associated with Venator LTI Awards, including any exercise, share delivery, registration or other obligations related to the exercise, vesting or settlement of the Venator LTI Awards.

Section 4.5 Form S-8. Prior to or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Venator Trading Day and subject to applicable Law, Venator shall prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-8 (or another appropriate form) registering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the offering of a number of shares of Venator Ordinary Shares at a minimum equal to the number of shares subject to the Venator LTI Awards. Venator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such registration statement to be kept effective (and the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses required thereby to be maintained) as long as any Venator LTI Awards remain outstanding.

Section 4.6 Tax Reporting and Withholding for Awards. Huntsman (or one of its Subsidiaries) will be responsible for all income, payroll, or other tax reporting related to income

of Huntsman Group Employees from equity-based and other long-term incentive awards outstanding pursuant to the Huntsman Equity Plans, and Venator (or one of its Subsidiaries) will be responsible for all income, payroll, or other tax reporting related to income of Venator Group Employees from equity-based and other long-term incentive awards granted under the Huntsman Equity Plans and the Venator New Equity Plan. Further, Huntsman (or one of its Subsidiaries) shall be responsible for remitting applicable tax withholdings for Huntsman Group Employees who hold equity-based and other long-term incentive awards outstanding pursuant to the Huntsman Equity Plans to each applicable taxing authority, and Venator (or one of its Subsidiaries) shall be responsible for remitting applicable tax withholdings for Venator Group Employees who hold equity-based and other long-term incentive awards granted under the Huntsman Equity Plans and the Venator New Equity Plan to each applicable taxing authority. Huntsman and Venator acknowledge and agree that the Parties will cooperate with each other and with third-party providers to effectuate withholding and remittance of taxes, as well as required tax reporting, in a timely, efficient, and appropriate manner.

Section 4.7 Approval of Venator New Equity Plan. Not later than the Venator Trading Day, Venator shall, or shall have caused an appropriate Huntsman Entity or Venator Entity to, have adopted the Venator New Equity Plan.

The Parties agree that the employment of a Venator Deferred Compensation Beneficiary that becomes a participant in the Venator Deferred Compensation Plan at the Effective Date shall not be considered to have terminated (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such Venator Deferred Compensation Beneficiary shall not be deemed to have incurred a “separation from service”) as a result of the IPO or the transfer of employment from Huntsman (or a Huntsman Entity) to Venator (or a Venator Entity), and such employment shall only be considered to terminate for purposes of the applicable Venator Deferred Compensation Plans

Huntsman shall have sole responsibility for the administration of the Huntsman Deferred Compensation Plans and the payment of benefits thereunder to or on behalf of Huntsman Group Employees and Former Venator Group Employees, and no member of the Venator Group shall have any liability or responsibility therefor.

ARTICLE IX
WELFARE PLANS

Section 9.1 Establishment of Venator Welfare Plans. On or prior to the Plan Transfer Date, Venator shall, or shall cause another Venator Entity to, establish and adopt Welfare Plans (the “Venator Welfare Plans”) which will provide welfare benefits to each Venator Group Employee who participate in any of the Huntsman Welfare Plans (and their eligible spouses and dependents, as the case may be) (collectively, the “Venator Welfare Plan Participants”). Coverage and benefits under the Venator Welfare Plans shall then be provided to the Venator Welfare Plan Participants on an uninterrupted basis under the newly established Venator Welfare Plans. Venator Welfare Plan Participants shall cease to be eligible for coverage under the Huntsman Welfare Plans on the Plan Transfer Date or such later Employee Transfer Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Venator Welfare Plan Participants shall not participate in any Huntsman Welfare Plans once eligible under the Venator Welfare Plan, and Huntsman Group Employees and Former Huntsman Group Employees shall not participate in any Venator Welfare Plans at any time.

Section 9.2 Special Provisions Relating to Post-Retirement Welfare Plans. On or prior to the Plan Transfer Date, Venator shall, or shall cause another Venator Entity to, establish and adopt a Welfare Plan (the “Venator Retiree Welfare Plan”), which will provide post-retirement welfare benefits to each Venator Group Employee who is eligible to participate in the Huntsman Retiree Medical Plan (and their eligible spouses and dependents, as the case may be) (collectively, the “Venator Retiree Welfare Plan Participants”).

Section 9.3 Transitional Matters Under Venator Welfare Plans.

(a) Liability for Claims Incurred. Huntsman, a member of the Huntsman Group, or the applicable Huntsman Welfare Plan shall be liable for all claims for benefits (other than flexible spending accounts) by Venator Welfare Plan Participants under the Huntsman Welfare Plans arising out of claims incurred on or prior to the Plan Transfer Date (or such later Employee Transfer Date). Venator or a member of the Venator Group shall be liable for all other Welfare Plan coverages for Venator Welfare Plan Participants under any Welfare Plan for which Huntsman, a member of the Huntsman Group or the applicable Huntsman Welfare Plan is not expressly liable, as set forth above.

(b) Credit for Deductibles and Other Limits. With respect to each Venator Welfare Plan Participant, each Venator Welfare Plan will give credit for the plan year in which the IPO occurs (or in the case of an Employee Transfer Date subsequent to the IPO, for the plan year in which the applicable Employee Transfer Date occurs) for any amount paid, number of services obtained or provider visits by such Venator Welfare Plan Participant toward deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums, limits on number of services or visits, or other similar limitations to the extent such amounts are taken into account under the corresponding Huntsman Welfare Plan. For purposes of any lifetime maximum benefit limit payable to a Venator Welfare Plan Participant under any Venator Welfare Plan, the Venator Welfare Plan will recognize any expenses paid or reimbursed by a Huntsman Welfare Plan with respect to such participant prior to the Plan Transfer Date (or such later Employee Transfer Date) to the same extent such expense payments or reimbursements would be recognized in respect of an active plan participant under the applicable Huntsman Welfare Plan.

(c) COBRA. On and after the Plan Transfer Date (or such later Employee Transfer Date), Venator shall assume all Liabilities and other obligations under COBRA (and shall provide any required coverage under the Venator Welfare Plans) with respect to all Venator Group Employees (and, in either case, their qualifying beneficiaries) who have a COBRA qualifying event (as defined in Section 4980B of the Code) on or after the Plan Transfer Date (or such later Employee Transfer Date).

Section 9.4 Benefit Elections and Designations and Continuity of Benefits.

(a) Benefit Elections and Designations. From and after the Plan Transfer Date, Venator or the appropriate Venator Entity shall cause each Venator Welfare Plan to recognize and give effect to all elections and designations (including all coverage and contribution elections and beneficiary designations) made by each Venator Welfare Plan Participant under, or with respect to, the corresponding Huntsman Welfare Plan for the plan year in which the IPO occurs (or in the case of an Employee Transfer Date subsequent to the IPO, for the plan year in which the applicable Employee Transfer Date occurs). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9.4(a) will prohibit Venator from soliciting or causing the solicitation of new election forms or beneficiary designations from Venator Welfare Plan Participants to be effective under the Venator Welfare Plan as of the Plan Transfer Date or any time thereafter.

(b) Additional Details Regarding Flexible Spending Accounts. Pursuant to Section 9.1, on or prior to the Plan Transfer Date, Venator shall, or shall cause another Venator Entity to, establish and adopt Venator Welfare Plans which will provide health care flexible spending account and dependent care flexible spending account benefits to Venator Welfare Plan Participants (each a “Venator FSA”).

(i) It is the intention of the Parties that all activity under a Venator Welfare Plan Participant’s flexible spending account with Huntsman for the plan year in which the IPO occurs (or in the case of an Employee Transfer Date subsequent to the IPO, for the plan year in which the applicable Employee Transfer Date occurs) be treated instead as activity under the corresponding Venator FSA. Accordingly, (x) any period of participation by a Venator Welfare Plan Participant in a Huntsman flexible spending account during the plan year in which the IPO occurs (or in the case of an Employee Transfer Date subsequent to the IPO, for the plan year in which the applicable Employee Transfer Date occurs) (the “FSA Participation Period”) will be deemed a period when the Venator Welfare Plan Participant participated in the corresponding Venator FSA; (y) all expenses incurred during the FSA Participation Period will be deemed incurred while the Venator Welfare Plan Participant’s coverage was in effect under the corresponding Venator FSA; and (z) all elections and reimbursements made with respect to an FSA Participation Period under a Huntsman flexible spending account will be deemed to have been made with respect to the corresponding Huntsman FSA.

(ii) If the aggregate reimbursement payouts made to Venator Welfare Plan Participants prior to the Plan Transfer Date (or such later Employee Transfer Date) from the applicable Huntsman Welfare Plan flexible spending accounts during the plan year in which the IPO occurs are less than the aggregate accumulated contributions to such accounts made by such Venator Welfare Plan Participants prior to the Plan Transfer Date for such plan year, Huntsman shall cause an amount equal to the amount by which such contributions are in excess of such reimbursement payouts to be transferred to Venator (or a Venator Entity designated by Venator) by wire transfer of immediately available funds as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 45 days, following the Plan Transfer Date (or later Employee Transfer Date).

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.4(b), on and after the Plan Transfer Date (or later Employee Transfer Date), the Venator Group shall assume, and cause the appropriate Venator FSA to be solely responsible for, all claims by Venator Welfare Plan Participants under the applicable Huntsman Welfare Plan flexible spending accounts that were incurred in the plan year in which the IPO occurs (or such later Employee Transfer Date occurs), whether incurred prior to, on, or after the Plan Transfer Date, that have not been paid in full as of the Plan Transfer Date (or later Employee Transfer Date).

(c) Additional Details Regarding Health Savings Accounts. Pursuant to Section 9.1, on or prior to the Plan Transfer Date, Venator shall, or shall cause another Venator Entity to, establish and adopt Venator Welfare Plans which will provide health savings account benefits to Venator Welfare Plan Participants. To the extent any Venator Welfare Plan provides or constitutes a health savings account (each a “Venator HSA”), such Venator Welfare Plan shall

be effective as of the Plan Transfer Date. It is the intention of the Parties that all activity under a Venator Welfare Plan Participant’s health savings account with Huntsman for the year in which the IPO occurs (or in the case of an Employee Transfer Date subsequent to the IPO, for the plan year in which the applicable Employee Transfer Date occurs) be treated instead as activity under the corresponding Venator HSA. Accordingly, (i) any period of participation by a Venator Welfare Plan Participant in a Huntsman health savings account during the year in which the IPO occurs (or in the case of an Employee Transfer Date subsequent to the IPO, for the plan year in which the applicable Employee Transfer Date occurs) (the “HSA Participation Period”) will be deemed a period when the Venator Welfare Plan Participant participated in the corresponding Venator HSA; (ii) all expenses incurred during the HSA Participation Period will be deemed incurred while the Venator Welfare Plan Participant’s coverage was in effect under the corresponding Venator HSA; and (iii) all elections and reimbursements made with respect to an HSA Participation Period under a Huntsman health savings account will be deemed to have been made with respect to the corresponding Venator HSA.

(d) Waiver of Conditions or Restrictions. Unless prohibited by applicable Law or a Collective Bargaining Agreement, the Venator Welfare Plans will waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions, exclusions, service conditions, waiting period limitations or evidence of insurability requirements that would otherwise be applicable to the Venator Welfare Plan Participant following the Plan Transfer Date (or such later Employee Transfer Date) to the extent that such participant had previously satisfied such limitation under the corresponding Huntsman Welfare Plan.

Section 9.5 Insurance Contracts. To the extent any Huntsman Welfare Plan is funded through the purchase of an insurance contract or is subject to any stop loss contract, Huntsman and Venator will cooperate and use their commercially reasonable efforts to replicate such insurance contracts for Venator (except for design changes and to the extent changes are required under applicable state insurance Laws or filings by the respective insurers) and to maintain any pricing discounts or other preferential terms for both Huntsman and Venator for a reasonable term. Neither Party shall be liable for failure to obtain such insurance contracts, pricing discounts, or other preferential terms for the other Party. Each Party shall be responsible for any additional premiums, charges, or administrative fees that such Party may incur pursuant to this Section 9.5.

Section 9.6 Third-Party Vendors. Except as provided below, to the extent any Huntsman Welfare Plan is administered by a third-party vendor, Huntsman and Venator will cooperate and use their commercially reasonable efforts to replicate any contract with such third-party vendor for Venator (except for changes agreed to by the Parties) and to maintain any pricing discounts or other preferential terms for both Huntsman and Venator for a reasonable term. Neither Party shall be liable for failure to obtain such pricing discounts or other preferential terms for the other Party. Each Party shall be responsible for any additional premiums, charges, or administrative fees that such Party may incur pursuant to this Section 9.6.

ARTICLE X
WORKERS’ COMPENSATION AND UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION

Section 10.1 Venator Workers’ and Unemployment Compensation. Effective as of the Employee Transfer Date, the Venator Entity employing each Venator Group Employee shall have (and, to the extent it has not previously had such obligations, such Venator Entity shall assume) the obligations for all claims and Liabilities relating to workers’ compensation and unemployment compensation benefits for all Venator Group Employees employed by that Venator Entity. Prior to the Employee Transfer Date, Venator, acting through the Venator Entity employing each Venator Group Employee, will be responsible for (a) obtaining workers’ compensation insurance, including providing all collateral required by the insurance carriers and providing all notices to Venator Group Employees required by applicable workers’ compensation Laws and (b) establishing new or transferred unemployment insurance employer accounts, policies and claims handling contracts with the applicable government agencies. To the extent that such unemployment insurance coverage cannot be either assigned to or obtained by Venator or a Venator Entity, in respect of unemployment claims and Liabilities otherwise to be assumed by Venator or a Venator Entity pursuant to this Section 10.1, Huntsman shall remain primarily liable for such claims and Liabilities, but Venator shall indemnify and hold harmless Huntsman for any such claims and Liabilities. If the preceding sentence applies, then at one or more mutually agreed upon dates, Huntsman shall determine in good faith the present value of such claims and Liabilities and Venator shall reimburse Huntsman for that amount.

Section 10.2 Assignment of Contribution Rights. Huntsman will transfer and assign (or cause another member of the Huntsman Group to transfer and assign) to a member of the Venator Group all rights to seek contribution or damages from any applicable third party (such as a third party who aggravates an injury to a worker who makes a workers’ compensation claim) with respect to any workers’ compensation claim for which Venator is responsible pursuant to this Article X.

Section 10.3 Collateral. From and after the Effective Date, Venator (acting directly or through a member of the Venator Group) shall be responsible for providing all collateral required by insurance carriers in connection with workers’ compensation claims for which Liability is allocated to the Venator Group under this Article X.

Section 10.4 Cooperation. Venator and Huntsman shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide that workers’ compensation and unemployment insurance costs are not adversely affected for either of them by reason of the IPO.

ARTICLE XI
SEVERANCE

Section 11.1 Establishment of Venator Severance Program. On or prior to the Plan Transfer Date, Venator shall, or shall cause another Venator Entity to, establish and adopt one or more severance plans, policies or arrangements at such levels and subject to such terms as Venator determines in its reasonable discretion. As of the Plan Transfer Date (or such later Employee Transfer Date), the Venator Group Employees shall no longer participate in any severance plan, policy or program of the Huntsman Group.

Section 11.2 Liability for Severance. As of the Plan Transfer Date (or such later Employee Transfer Date), Huntsman shall have no Liability or obligation under any Huntsman Group severance plan or policy with respect to Venator Group Employees.

ARTICLE XII
BENEFIT ARRANGEMENTS AND OTHER MATTERS

Section 12.1 Accrued Time Off. Venator shall recognize and assume all Liability for all unused vacation, holiday, sick leave, flex days, personal days and paid-time off and other time-off benefits with respect to Venator Group Employees which accrued prior to the applicable Employee Transfer Date.

Section 12.2 Leaves of Absence. Venator will continue to apply the appropriate leave of absence policies applicable to inactive Venator Group Employees who are on an approved leave of absence as of the Employee Transfer Date. Leaves of absence taken by Venator Group Employees prior to the Employee Transfer Date shall be deemed to have been taken as employees of a member of the Venator Group.

Section 12.3 Restrictive Covenants in Employment and Other Agreements. To the fullest extent permitted by the agreements described in this Section 12.3 and applicable Law, Huntsman shall assign, or cause an applicable member of the Huntsman Group to assign (including through notification to employees, as applicable), to Venator or a member of the Venator Group, as designated by Venator, all agreements containing restrictive covenants (including confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation provisions) between a member of the Huntsman Group and a Venator Group Employee, with such assignment to be effective as of the Plan Transfer Date (or later Employee Transfer Date). To the extent that assignment of such agreements is not permitted, effective as of the Plan Transfer Date (or later Employee Transfer Date), each member of the Venator Group shall be considered to be a successor to each member of the Huntsman Group for purposes of, and a third-party beneficiary with respect to, all agreements containing restrictive covenants (including confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation provisions) between a member of the Huntsman Group and a Venator Group Employee, such that each member of the Venator Group shall enjoy all the rights and benefits under such agreements (including rights and benefits as a third-party beneficiary), with respect to the business operations of the Venator Group; provided, however, that in no event shall Huntsman be permitted to enforce such restrictive covenant agreements against Venator Group Employees for action taken in their capacity as employees of a member of the Venator Group.

ARTICLE XIII
GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 13.1 Preservation of Rights to Amend. The rights of each member of the Huntsman Group and each member of the Venator Group to amend, waive, or terminate any plan, arrangement, agreement, program, or policy referred to herein shall not be limited in any way by this Agreement.

Section 13.2 Confidentiality. Each Party agrees that any information conveyed or otherwise received by or on behalf of a Party in conjunction herewith that is not otherwise public

through no fault of such Party is confidential and is subject to the terms of the confidentiality provisions set forth herein and in the Separation Agreement.

Section 13.3 Administrative Complaints/Litigation. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, from and after the Effective Date, Venator shall assume, and be solely liable for, the handling, administration, investigation, and defense of actions, including ERISA, occupational safety and health, employment standards, union grievances, wrongful dismissal, discrimination or human rights, and unemployment compensation claims asserted at any time against Huntsman or any member of the Huntsman Group by (a) any Venator Group Employee (including any dependent or beneficiary of any such Employee), (b) any consultant or independent contractor who provided or provides services primarily for the benefit of the Venator Business or (c) any other person to the extent such actions or claims otherwise arise out of or relate to employment or the provision of services (whether as an employee, contractor, consultant, or otherwise) to or with respect to the business activities of any member of the Venator Group. Clause (c) of the preceding sentence to the contrary notwithstanding, to the extent that any such legal action is brought by a Huntsman Group Employee or Former Huntsman Group Employee and relates to employment or the provision of services with respect to both the business activities of a member of the Venator Group and the business activities of a member of the Huntsman Group (excluding the Venator Group), reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in responding to such legal action shall be allocated among the Parties based upon the relative levels of service provided between the Venator Business and the businesses of the Huntsman Group other than the Venator Business. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any legal action relates to a putative or certified class of plaintiffs, which includes both Huntsman Group Employees (or Former Huntsman Group Employees) and Venator Group Employees and such action involves employment or benefit plan related claims, reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in responding to such legal action shall be allocated among the Parties equitably in proportion to a reasonable assessment of the relative proportion of Employees included in or represented by the putative or certified plaintiff class. The procedures contained in the indemnification and related litigation cooperation provisions of the Separation Agreement shall apply with respect to each Party’s indemnification obligations under this Section 13.3.

Section 13.4 Reimbursement and Indemnification. To the extent provided for under this Agreement, each Party agrees to reimburse the other Party, within 30 days of receipt from the other Party of reasonable verification, for all costs and expenses which the other Party may incur on its behalf as a result of any of the respective Huntsman Benefit Plans and Venator Benefit Plans and, as contemplated by Article XI, any termination or severance payments or benefits. All Liabilities retained, assumed, or indemnified against by Venator pursuant to this Agreement, and all Liabilities retained, assumed, or indemnified against by Huntsman pursuant to this Agreement, shall in each case be subject to the indemnification provisions of the Separation Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (i) no provision of this Agreement shall require any member of the Venator Group to pay or reimburse to any member of the Huntsman Group any benefit-related cost item that a member of the Venator Group has paid or reimbursed to any member of the Huntsman Group prior to the Plan Transfer Date, and (ii) no provision of this Agreement shall require any member of the Huntsman Group to pay or reimburse to any member of the Venator Group any benefit-related cost item that a member of

the Huntsman Group has paid or reimbursed to any member of the Venator Group prior to the Plan Transfer Date.

Section 13.5 Costs of Compliance with Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other Transfer Document, each Party shall pay its own expenses in fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 13.6 Fiduciary Matters. Huntsman and Venator each acknowledge that actions required to be taken pursuant to this Agreement may be subject to fiduciary duties or standards of conduct under ERISA or other applicable Law, and no Party shall be deemed to be in violation of this Agreement if it fails to comply with any provisions hereof based upon its good-faith determination (as supported by advice from counsel experienced in such matters) that to do so would violate such a fiduciary duty or standard. Each Party shall be responsible for taking such actions as are deemed necessary and appropriate to comply with its own fiduciary responsibilities and shall fully release and indemnify the other Party for any Liabilities caused by the failure to satisfy any such responsibility.

Section 13.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the documents referenced herein (including the Separation Agreement, the Transfer Documents and the plans and agreements referenced herein), constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior written and oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof. Any conflicts between the provisions of this Agreement and the Separation Agreement (and the agreements referenced therein) or any Transfer Document shall be addressed in the manner set forth in Section 8.6 of the Separation Agreement.

Section 13.8 Binding Effect; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Parties and should not be deemed to confer upon any third parties any remedy, claim, Liability, reimbursement, cause of action, or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to amend any employee benefit plan or affect the applicable plan sponsor’s right to amend or terminate any employee benefit plan pursuant to the terms of such plan. The provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Parties, and no current or former Employee, officer, director, or independent contractor or any other individual associated therewith shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Party to be bound thereby. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in the exercise of any

right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement contained herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercises thereof or of any other right.

Section 13.10 Remedies Cumulative. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement or the Schedules attached hereto are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

Section 13.12 Counterparts. This Agreement, including the Schedules hereto and the other documents referred to herein, may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 13.13 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof or thereof, or the application of such provision to Persons, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby.
