Forward-Looking Statements 2 This communication includes forward-looking statements. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on management’s beliefs, certain assumptions made by management, forecasts of future results, and current expectations, estimates and projections about the markets and economy in which we and our various segments operate. These statements may include statements regarding our recent acquisition of the U.S. chlor alkali and downstream derivatives businesses, the expected benefits and synergies of the transaction, and future opportunities for the combined company following the transaction. The statements contained in this communication that are not statements of historical fact may include forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. We have used the words “anticipate,” “intend,” “may,” “expect,” “believe,” “should,” “plan,” “project,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “optimistic,” and variations of such words and similar expressions in this communication to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those matters expressed or implied in such forward- looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: factors relating to the possibility that Olin may be unable to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies in connection with the transaction within the expected time-frames or at all; the integration of the acquired chlorine products businesses being more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; the effect of any changes resulting from the transaction in customer, supplier and other business relationships; general market perception of the transaction; exposure to lawsuits and contingencies associated with the acquired chlorine products business; the ability to attract and retain key personnel; prevailing market conditions; changes in economic and financial conditions of our chlorine products business; uncertainties and matters beyond the control of management; and the other risks detailed in Olin’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and Olin’s Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016. The forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these factors. In addition, other risks and uncertainties not presently known to Olin or that Olin considers immaterial could affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements. The reader is cautioned not to rely unduly on these forward-looking statements. Olin undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures(a) Olin's definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is net (loss) income plus an add-back for depreciation and amortization, interest expense (income), income tax expense (benefit), other expense (income), restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs, fair value inventory purchase accounting adjustment and other certain non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that this measure is meaningful to investors as a supplemental financial measure to assess the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structures, taxes, or historical cost basis. The use of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to replace any measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP and Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

(b) Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2015 included acquisition financing expenses of $10.8 million primarily for the bridge financing associated with our acquisition of the Acquired Business. (c) Restructuring charges for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were primarily associated with the closure of 433,000 tons of chlor alkali capacity across three separate locations, of which $76.6 million was non-cash impairment charges for equipment and facilities. (d) Acquisition-related costs for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were associated with our acquisition and integration of the Acquired Business. (e) Fair value inventory purchase accounting adjustment for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was associated with non-recurring expenses included within costs of goods sold of $24.0 million due to the increase of inventory to fair value at the acquisition date related to the purchase accounting of the Acquired Business. (f) Certain non-recurring items for the three months ended March 31, 2016 included an $11.0 million insurance recovery for property damage and business interruption related to a 2008 chlor alkali facility incident. Certain non-recurring items for the three months ended December 31, 2015 included $3.7 million of insurance recoveries for property damage and business interruption related to the McIntosh, AL chlor alkali facility. 27
