10 Industrial Bleach Initiative • Appeal of Industrial Bleach – Bleach utilizes both chlorine and caustic soda in an ECU ratio – Demand is seasonal, but not cyclical – Bleach commands a premium price over an ECU • Olin Advantages – Regional nature of the bleach business benefits Olin’s geographic profile – Olin’s proprietary railcar technology extends geographic reach – KA Steel’s Midwest bleach manufacturing & distribution completes coverage • Olin Actions – Olin is the leading North American bleach producer – Our 3 new HyPure® bleach investments have added 50% more bleach capacity to the Olin system, extending product shelf life and lowering freight costs – 2013 bleach shipments increased 8% over 2012 shipments; marking 24 consecutive quarters of year-over-year increases in bleach shipments


 
11 23% CAGR Bleach Growth is a Key Objective • Olin bleach volumes have delivered steady growth since 2006 • Key bleach target segments include waste and drinking water treatment, consumer products, food, farming and pool chemicals • Our capacity to convert ECUs into higher margin bleach now exceeds 17% • Olin HyPure® bleach and proprietary rail car design provides: • Increased product stability and extended shelf life • A potential new category of downstream consumer products • Reduced transportation costs • Expanded bleach shipping radius • An enhancement to our geographic advantage over competitors Olin’s Bleach Accomplishments


 
12 Hydrochloric Acid • Olin is the leading producer of Burner-grade HCl in North America with 5 manufacturing facilities in the United States and Canada • Currently 25% of HCl supply is “Burner-grade” or “on-purpose” HCl • By-product HCl accounts for 75% of the market supply, but availability is subject to urethane and fluorocarbon demand • Burner grade HCl is a reliable source, and while a small cost component in oil and gas exploration, is critical to the process • HCl is used in processing steel, artificial sweeteners, pharmaceuticals, food, ores and minerals; and in water, wastewater and brine treatments • Olin converted 7% of its chlorine capacity into higher margin HCl and now has the capability to consume 13% of its chlorine into HCl


 
13 Growing HCl Demand North American HCl Supply • Burner acid expansions represent the majority of new supply coming online, approaching 13% of 2014 capacity • Burner operating rates are higher than by- product, supplying approximately 25% of North American demand • By-product HCl availability is less reliable • Olin is ideally positioned to serve the West & North through our expanded rail fleet and distribution capabilities North American HCl Demand • Oil and gas exploration and production continue to grow as transportation infrastructure catches up with demand • Steel industry is recovering, but utilization rates remain low with growing imports • Diverse, smaller demand segments are tracking with GDP growth 15% CAGR

15 • KA Steel is one of the largest distributors of caustic soda in North America and manufactures and sells bleach in the Midwest • On August 22, 2012, we acquired KA Steel for $312 million in cash, subject to post-closing adjustments, and created Chemical Distribution segment • The Section 338(h)(10) tax election provides a $60 million NPV tax benefit to Olin; when considering this and the expected synergies, Olin paid an EBITDA multiple of approximately 4 times • 2013 Chemical Distribution sales were $406 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $25 million • The combination of the Chlor Alkali and Chemical Distribution segments is expected to generate approximately $35 million of synergies each year by the end of the third year of ownership (Q3 2015) • The transaction was financed through the sale of $200 million of 5.5%, 10- year notes and cash on hand KA Steel Acquisition


 
16 Complimentary Asset Footprints • KA Steel caustic distribution infrastructure is a strong fit with Olin’s chlor alkali assets: • Mature supply relationships • 90,000 tons of storage capacity • Expanded geographic coverage • Logistical savings • Provides scale and flexibility • Access to new customers, regions and industry segments • Combined network is capable of supporting higher caustic volumes • KA Steel adds approximately 50,000 tons of bleach capacity • Following the Q2 2013 start-up of the Henderson, NV HyPure® plant, Olin now has over 350,000 tons of value added bleach capacity 13 23 9 6 Only 3 locations out of 51 overlap


 
17 Winchester Winchester Strategy • Cost Reduction – Centerfire relocation – Once completed, we expect $35-$40 million of lower operating costs – $17 million of cost savings were realized in 2013 • New Product Development – Continue to develop new product offerings – Maintain reputation as a new product innovator • Provide returns in excess of cost of capital Hunters & Recreational Shooters Products Retail Distributors Mass Merchants Law Enforcement Military Industrial Rifle      N/A Handgun      N/A Rimfire       Shotshell       Components       Brands

21 Centerfire Relocation • The decision to relocate Winchester’s centerfire operations, including 1,000 jobs, was made on November 3, 2010 • The 500,000 square foot facility was opened in October 2011, the relocation of pistol ammunition manufacturing is complete, rifle manufacturing has been initiated, and the project is on schedule and on budget to be completed late 2015 or early 2016 • Pistol manufacturing move has been completed, relocation of rifle lines began in Q4 2013 • Year-over-year 2013 profit improvement resulting from the relocation savings are approximately $22 million • 2014 relocation cost savings expected to be $24 to $26 million • We now expect $35 to $40 million in lower operating costs by the completion of our relocation effort in late 2015 or early 2016


 
22 Strong Balance Sheet • Cash increased $135 million during 2013 after funding the common dividend and repurchasing approximately 1.5 million common shares • The year end 2013 cash balance of $312 million reflects: • $91 million of CAPEX in 2013; • $24 million of maturing long-term debt payments; and • $100 million distributed to shareholders in the form of common stock dividends and common share repurchases • No material debt maturities until 2016, and total debt due between now and 6/1/16 is less than $40 million • The Olin defined benefit pension plans remain fully funded with no contributions expected for several years • 2014 CAPEX is forecast to be in the $95 to $105 million range • 2014 Depreciation and Amortization expense is expected to be in the $135 to $140 million range


 
23 • Full year 2014 EBITDA is expected to be $375 to $425 million • Record 2013 EBITDA was driven by the successful completion of several strategic initiatives in 2012, the on-going bleach and HCl growth initiatives, KA Steel synergies, strong Winchester results and cost savings associated with the centerfire relocation to Oxford, MS • In 2013, bleach sales consumed 10% of our ECU capacity, driven by the 3 new HyPure® bleach plants, Olin has the capability to convert over 17% of our ECUs into higher margin bleach • In 2013, HCl sales consumed 7% of our chlorine capacity, with the HCl burner, Olin can convert 13% of chlorine into higher margin HCl • 2014 will include more cost synergies and a higher level of bleach, HCl and KOH sales through our Chemical Distribution business • The latest demand surge, which helped generate Winchester’s record 2013 EBITDA, is expected to last at least until the end of Q2 2014 and when coupled with higher relocation savings, the outlook for 2014 earnings is promising for Winchester Profit Outlook
