EXHIBIT A

BENEFIT PLAN REVIEW COMMITTEE OF OLIN CORPORATION
AMENDMENT TO THE
OLIN CORPORATION
SUPPLEMENTAL CONTRIBUTING EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP PLAN

Olin Corporation (the “Company”) currently maintains the Olin Corporation Supplemental Contributing Employee Ownership Plan (the “Plan”). The Company desires to amend the Plan as of January 1, 2018 in order to modify retirement contribution eligibility and make other conforming changes to match the qualified 401(k) plan. This amendment shall supersede the provisions of the Plan to the extent that those provisions are inconsistent with the provisions of this amendment.
Under the terms of the Plan, the Company reserves the right to amend the Plan. Pursuant to the authority of the Benefit Plan Review Committee of Olin Corporation (the “Committee”), effective as of January 1, 2018, the Committee consents to the amendment of the Plan in the following manner:
1.
Section 1.1(j) of the Plan (regarding the definition of Excess Company Matching Contributions) is amended by replacing “six percent (6%)” with “seven percent (7%)” wherever it appears in the first paragraph thereof.

2.
Section 1.1(l) of the Plan (regarding the definition of Excess Retirement Contributions) is amended by revising the last sentence of the first paragraph thereof to read as follows:

“Notwithstanding the preceding, effective only for Plan Years prior to the 2018 Plan Year, Excess Retirement Contributions shall not be made with respect to a SCEOP Participant who is a Dow Transferee.”

3.
Section 2.1 of the Plan is amended by deleting the parenthetical in the last sentence thereof.
