3.	CONSIDERATION

3.1	Purchase Price for Kemira TiO2 Business

3.1.1	The purchase price for the sale and transfer of the Kemira TiO2 Shares pursuant to section 2.1(a) amounts to a fixed amount of EUR 168,900,000.00 (the “Kemira Share Transfer Receivable”). The Kemira Share Transfer Receivable has been determined on the basis of an enterprise value of Kemira TiO2 of EUR 222,700,000.00 by deducting (i) the amount of the Existing Intercompany Receivable (as defined in the Master Agreement) of EUR 51,700,000.00 as described in section 2.2.1(b) of the Master Agreement and (ii) the amount of the Kemira Dividend of EUR 2,100,000.00 as described in section 2.2.1(d) of the Master Agreement. The Kemira Share Transfer Receivable shall not be due and payable in cash but shall be settled pursuant to sections 3.4.1 to 3.4.5 through a payment into the capital reserves.

3.1.2	The purchase price for the sale and transfer of the Kemira Oberhausen Assets pursuant to section 2.1(b) amounts to a fixed amount of a net amount of EUR 2,300,000.00 (plus applicable transfer taxes, if any) (the net amount the “Oberhausen Transfer Receivable”).

	The Oberhausen Transfer Receivable shall not be due and payable in cash but shall be settled pursuant to sections 3.4.1 to 3.4.5 through a payment into the capital reserves of JV Europe.

3.2	Purchase Price for Rockwood TiO2 Business

3.2.1	The purchase price for the sale and transfer of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shares pursuant to section 2.1(c) amounts a fixed amount equal to the aggregate amount of

	(a)	EUR 180,000,000.00 (the “▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Share Transfer Receivable”) which amount has been determined on the basis of an enterprise value of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of EUR 363,000,000.00 by deducting the amount of the Existing Intercompany Receivable of EUR 183,000,000.00 as described in section 2.2.2(a) of the Master Agreement; and

	(b)	an additional amount of EUR 2,900,000.00 (the “Subordinated Note Amount”).

3.2.2	The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Share Transfer Receivable shall not be due and payable in cash but shall be settled pursuant to sections 3.4.1 to 3.4.5 through a payment into the capital reserves of JV Europe. The Subordinated Note Amount shall not be due and payable in cash but shall be automatically converted into a subordinated note issued by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Germany (the “Subordinated Note”) which note shall bear interest at the net interest rate applicable under the Refinancing (as defined in the Master Agreement), interest to be accrued and repaid together with the principal amount at the later of (i) 31 December 2010 and (ii) repayment being permitted under the Refinancing commitments.

3.3	Purchase Price for Rockwood TiO2 Business

	The purchase price for the sale and transfer of the JV Europe Share B pursuant to section 2.1(d) amounts to a fixed amount of EUR 11,661.00 (the “JV Europe Share Transfer Receivable”) and shall be due and payable by Kemira to Rockwood Germany in cash on the Closing Date.

3.4	Settlement Actions

	Subject to the condition precedent (aufschiebende Bedingung) of Closing occurring:

3.4.1	Kemira Germany hereby assigns (▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇) to Kemira the Oberhausen Asset Transfer Receivable in the amount of EUR 2,300,000.00 and Kemira hereby accepts such assignment.

3.4.2	Kemira hereby assigns (▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇) to JV Europe the Oberhausen Transfer Receivable in the amount of EUR 2,300,000.00 which shall be recorded as a contribution into the capital reserve (Einzahlung in die Kapitalrücklage) of JV Europe pursuant to section 272 para. 2 no. 4 German Commercial Code (HGB). JV Europe hereby accepts such assignment and takes note of (nimmt zur Kenntnis) the payment into its capital reserve.

3.4.3	Kemira hereby assigns (▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇) to Finnish HoldCo, and Finnish HoldCo hereby accepts such assignment, a fraction of the Kemira Share Transfer Receivable equal to

	(a)	EUR 112,700,000.00; and

	(b)	(i) plus the amount by which the aggregate amount of Existing Intercompany Receivables as defined in the Master Agreement (including the receivable resulting from the Kemira Dividend but excluding the Existing Intercompany Receivable owed by Kemira Inc. to JV US pursuant to section 2.2.1(c) of the Master Agreement) exceeds EUR 53,800,000.00; or (ii) minus the amount by which the aggregate amount of Existing Intercompany Receivables as defined in the Master Agreement (including the receivable resulting from the Kemira Dividend but excluding the Existing Intercompany Receivable owed by Kemira Inc. to JV US pursuant to section 2.2.1(c) of the Master Agreement) falls short of EUR 53,800,000.00 , as the case may be.

		By way of example, if the Existing Intercompany Receivables amounted to EUR 54,000,000.00, then the resulting amount under this section 3.4.3(b) would be EUR 112,700,000.00 less EUR 53,800,000.00 plus EUR 54,000,000, i.e. EUR 112,900,000.00.

	The fraction of the Kemira Share Transfer Receivable so assigned shall be recorded as a contribution into the capital reserve (Einzahlung in die Kapitalrücklage) of JV Europe pursuant to section 272 para. 2 no. 4 German Commercial Code (HGB). JV Europe hereby accepts such assignments and takes note of (nimmt zur Kenntnis) the payment into its capital reserve.

	For the avoidance of doubt, it is hereby set forth that, as a result of the adjustment of the fraction of the Kemira Share Transfer Receivable to be assigned pursuant to section 3.4.3(b), the aggregate amount of (i) the Existing Intercompany Receivables of Kemira against Kemira TiO2 immediately after the Closing; and (ii) the remaining fraction of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Share Transfer Receivable against Finnish HoldCo retained by Kemira shall together always equal EUR 110,000,000.00.

3.4.4	Rockwood Germany hereby assigns (▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇) to JV Europe the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Share Transfer Receivable in the amount of EUR 180,000,000.00, which shall be recorded as a contribution into the capital reserve (Einzahlung in die Kapitalrücklage) of JV Europe pursuant to section 272 para. 2 no. 4 German Commercial Code (HGB). JV Europe hereby accepts such assignment and takes note of (nimmt zur Kenntnis) the payment into its capital reserve.

3.4.5	As consideration for the shares of Kemira Inc. under the US Transfer Agreement Kemira shall receive an intercompany receivable against JV US in the amount of (i) EUR 7,000,000.00 less (ii) the Existing Intercompany Receivable described in section 2.2.1(c) (in such amount that is outstanding under this Existing Intercompany Receivable at Closing), representing the difference in valuation between its 39 per cent limited liability interest in JV US and the value of the Kemira Inc. Shares contributed by it, thus resulting in a total Intercompany Receivable of EUR 7,000,000.00 by Kemira against JV US and Kemira Inc.

3.5	Situation after Implementation Actions

	Following the Closing having occurred, the US Transfer Agreement and the Master Agreement on the Closing Date and as further described in the Master Agreement,

	(a)	Rockwood Germany’s Intercompany Receivables will consist of

		(i)	an Intercompany Receivable in the amount of EUR 183,000,000.00 (being the result of a waiver of the exceeding part of the Existing Intercompany Receivable under the Master Agreement); and

		(ii)	the Subordinated Note in the amount of EUR 2,900,000.00;

	(b)	Kemira’s Intercompany Receivables will total EUR 117,000,000.00; of which

		(i)	EUR 7,000,000.00 will be against JV US and Kemira Inc.; and

		(ii)	the remaining EUR 110,000,000.00 will comprise of (x) the Existing Intercompany Receivables of Kemira against Kemira TiO2 immediately after the Closing; and (y) the remaining fraction of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Share Transfer Receivable against Finnish HoldCo retained by Kemira as it is going to be determined pursuant to section 3.4.3;

	(c)	JV Europe’s intercompany receivables will amount to a total of EUR 0.00 (in words: zero) as a result of the transaction pursuant to section 3.4.3 and the JV Europe Share Transfer Receivable having been settled in cash.

	For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Master Agreement if, for whatever reason, the amount of intercompany receivables of the Parties against the JV Group Companies will deviate from what has been outlined in this section 3.5, the Parties shall take all such actions and make or receive all such declarations in order to provide a situation which is, from an economical point of view, identical to the situation outlined in this section 3.5.

	(e)		in respect of each of (a) to (d) and in order to avoid a double consideration of items, such items shall be deemed removed or added from or to the Kemira Oberhausen Assets, as the case may be, if and to the extent these items

4.2	Provisions relating to the Kemira Oberhausen Assets

4.2.1	To the extent there is a reservation of title in favor of third parties attached to Kemira Oberhausen Assets (other than IP Rights and Know-How) or there has been a transfer of ownership of such assets by way of security (Sicherungsübereignung), the performance obligation in relation to the third party remains with the respective Kemira Affiliate. If the Kemira Affiliate fails to fulfill this obligation on or before the Closing Date, Kemira may, with the consent of JV Europe, do so (or procure that the Affiliate does so) no later than five days on which banks in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, and Helsinki, Finland, are generally open for business (a “Business Day”) following the Closing Date, provided that Kemira shall provide evidence of such fulfillment to JV Europe without undue delay (unverzüglich).

4.2.2	As used in this Agreement, with respect to a person or entity, “Affiliate” shall have the meaning given in section 15 et seq. of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG), but

	(a)	with respect to Rockwood Holdings, Rockwood, Rockwood Germany and Kemira shall exclude JV Group Companies (“JV Group Companies” defined as including

		only JV Europe, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Finnish HoldCo, Kemira TiO2, JV US, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp, Kemira Inc. and Maybrook, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trading (Shanghai) Company Limited, each a “JV Group Company”) as well as JV Europe’s direct and indirect subsidiaries and shareholdings; and

If it is not possible to obtain such consent or if this is not expedient (in the opinion of both Kemira and JV Europe), Kemira and/or Kemira’s Affiliate, as applicable, and JV Europe will – to the extent legally permissible – conduct themselves and treat each other inter se as if JV Europe had validly assumed the relevant liability with effect as of the Closing Date. In this case, Kemira and/or Kemira’s Affiliate, as applicable, will remain the nominal debtor in relation to third parties, but will internally fulfill the liability for the account of and on the instructions of JV Europe.

4.5	Each of Kemira and Kemira Germany and JV Europe, as the case may be, hereby accept any transfers or declarations as set out in section 4.

9.13.1	Annex 9.13.1-1 contains a list of all insurance policies used in, taken out by, relating to or for the benefit of the Business (each an “Insurance Policy” and, collectively, the “Insurance Policies”), which (i) are maintained at group level or (ii) relate to property damages, business liabilities and environmental liabilities, in each case including the name of the insurance provider, the name of the insured, the insured risk, the policy number, the date of issuance, the term, the maximum amount of coverage, the amount of any deductible and to the extent taken out by the respective Transferred Company and not maintained at group level, the annual premium. Annex 9.13.1-2 contains a list of all Insurance Policies where coverage will terminate or reduce upon or as a result of the consummation of the Transaction.

9.13.2	The Insurance Policies provide coverage that is (i) customary in the Business’ industry both with respect to scope and nature and (ii) adequate under any contractual or mandatory insurance requirement applicable to the Business. Each Insurance Policy is in full force and

	effect and was in full force and effect during the periods of time that such Insurance Policy was purported to be in effect, is valid, existing and binding and all premiums due thereon have been timely paid (subject to changes made in the ordinary course of business that did not materially reduce the coverage thereunder). The Business has not received any notices of termination or cancellation with respect to any Insurance Policy and the consummation of the Transaction will not result in the termination of any Insurance Policy, except as described in Annex 9.13.2.

9.13.3	Annex 9.13.3 sets forth all outstanding claims made under the Insurance Policies. To the Warranting Party’s best knowledge, there are no circumstances or facts that would entitle the Business to make any additional claims against any insurance provider under any Insurance Policy in excess of EUR 100,000.00.

9.14	Legal Disputes

	The Transferred Company is not a party – as plaintiff, defendant or otherwise – to any court, arbitration or public authority proceedings involving a value in dispute of more than EUR 100,000.00 in an individual case, except as specified in Annex 9.14. The aggregate amount of the values in dispute in all proceedings to which the Transferred Company is a party and which are not listed in Annex 9.14 does not exceed EUR 250,000.00. There is no indication that any additional court, arbitration or public authority proceedings will be commenced after the date of this Agreement.

9.15	No Bribery or Corruption, Compliance with U.S. Sanctions

	(a)	offered, promised or granted, directly or indirectly, any benefit (e.g. bribes, payments in kind or kick-backs) to any person (e.g. a natural or legal person or his/her/its representative(s)), in return for obtaining unfair favorable treatment vis-à-vis competitors in the supply of goods or commercial services, or, to the best of the Warranting Party’s best knowledge, demanded, allowed him- or herself to be promised or accepted such benefit for him- or herself or a third party for the purpose of obtaining unfair favorable treatment vis-à-vis competitors in the supply of goods or commercial services;

	(b)	offered, promised or granted, directly or indirectly, any benefit (cf. section 9.15.1(a)) to a public official, a person with special public service obligations or any other

		person who performs public functions, to or for that person or a third person, in return for the fact that he/she performed or will in future perform an official act;

	(c)	made any unlawful political donations; and/or

	(d)	otherwise used the Transferred Company’s funds for illegal purposes in connection with the Business that could expose the Transferred Company or its shareholders to the risk of the imposition of a penalty or fine (Geldstrafe oder Geldbuße) payable by, or that could lead to an imposition of an obligation upon, or a loss for, the Transferred Company or its respective shareholders.

9.15.2	The Business and the Transferred Company is in compliance with (i) all relevant sanctions and regulations promulgated by the Office of Foreign Asset Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, (ii) all relevant resolutions or directives of the United Nations and (iii) the relevant Laws of the European Union.

9.16	Warranties Specific to Kemira

	Each of the Kemira TiO2’s Finnish pension fund Kemira Pigments Oy:n eläkesäätiö and Kemira TiO2’s Finnish sickness fund that manages, inter alia, mandatory benefits in lieu of the competent Finnish governmental authority (Kansaneläkelaitos), is fully funded as per December 31, 2007.

10.	SUPPLEMENTARY PROVISIONS REGARDING THE WARRANTIES

10.1	The Warranties together with their annexes also apply – to the extent required, mutatis mutandis – to the Transferred Company’s consolidated Affiliates listed in Annex 10.1-1. With respect to the Transferred Company’s non-consolidated Affiliates listed in Annex 10.1-2, all Warranties are given to the best knowledge of the Warranting Party in the meaning of section 10.2 only and without any obligation to make any further enquiry.

10.2	Warranties that are given to the Warranting Party’s “best knowledge” are given to the actual knowledge of the present members of Kemira’s, Rockwood Germany’s or Rockwood’s managing directors / board or directors, as applicable, as of the date of this Agreement.

10.3	Except where otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Affected Party (as defined below) shall only be entitled to raise claims under the Warranties if and to the extent the

	matter to which the claim relates is not disclosed in this Agreement, the Master Agreement, the JV Agreement or their respective annexes. Section 442 of the German Civil Code (BGB) does not apply. For the sake of clarity, the Parties hereby acknowledge that disclosure of any matter in any context other than in this Agreement, the Master Agreement, the JV Agreement or their respective annexes (e.g. disclosure solely in a data room) is not sufficient to bar an Affected Party (as defined below) from raising a claim under the Warranties.

10.4	To the extent that Warranties are limited by the disclosure of facts in the relevant Warranty or in an Annex to this Agreement to which it expressly refers, the respective limitation applies only to the Warranty to which it specifically relates.

11.	REMEDIES

11.1	If one or more Warranties are incorrect and/or incomplete, then the Party to which such Warranty was given (the “Affected Party”) is in each case entitled to demand from the Party breaching such Warranty (the “Breaching Party”) that the warranted situation be provided.

11.2	If the Affected Party demands remedy of the warranted situation and (i) the warranted situation is not fully provided by the Breaching Party within a reasonable period, but in any case within four weeks after receipt of the warranty remedy demand, (ii) remedy of the warranted situation turns out to be impossible or inexpedient from the Affected Party’s reasonable point of view, or (iii) the Breaching Party refuses remedy of the warranted situation for any reason, then the Affected Party is entitled to demand payment of damages from the Breaching Party to the respective JV Group Company affected by the breach in the amount needed for remedy of the warranted situation and/or for compensation of other losses, such losses specifically excluding:

	(a)	consequential damages (Folgeschäden), lost profits (entgangener Gewinn), internal administration and overhead costs;

	(b)	amounts for which specific accruals (Rückstellungen) have been included in the Annual Audited Accounts;

	(c)	amounts that have been specifically taken into consideration in the evaluation of the Transaction as set out in the Financial Information and Valuation (and deducted from the EBITDA or enterprise value); and

	(d)	amounts that are compensated pursuant to section 16 (Locked Box Concept) which shall prevail over this section 11.

11.3	The JV Group Companies shall be obliged to inform the Advisory Board of JV Europe and any Party reasonably requesting such information of any breach of the Warranties without undue delay after they become aware of such breach.

11.4	The liability of the Breaching Party for a breach of Warranty shall be limited as follows:

11.4.1	The Affected Party is entitled to raise claims for a breach of Warranty only to the extent that any individual claim or a series of related claims exceeds EUR 250,000.00 (de minimis), except where an individual warranty specified a higher or lower minimum amount, in which case such amount shall apply, and only if and to the extent the sum of such claims exceeds EUR 4,000,000.00, in which case the entire amount can be claimed (Freigrenze).

11.4.2	Subject to section 11.4.3, for all claims resulting from a breach of Warranty except for a breach of any Warranty set forth in section 9.2 (but excluding section 9.2.9), the maximum aggregate liability of the Breaching Party equals EUR 25,000,000.00 unless otherwise set out in this Agreement.

11.4.3	For claims in respect of fraud or willful misconduct, the statutory rules shall apply. Section 444 of the German Civil Code (BGB) remains applicable.

11.5	The Affected Party shall notify the Breaching Party in writing of any breach of Warranty within 60 days after the Affected Party became aware of such breach, provided that the failure to so notify the Breaching Party as provided in this sentence will not relieve the Breaching Party from any liability or obligation that it may have pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent the Breaching Party shall actually have been materially prejudiced by such failure or delay.

11.6	All claims arising pursuant to this section 11 shall be time-barred from the earlier of

	(a)	the first anniversary of the Closing Date; and

	(b)	the occurrence of a disposal of all shares in JV Europe (and the respective limited liability interest in JV US as required by the JV Agreement) by either Kemira and / or Rockwood Germany; and

	(c)	an initial public offering of the shares in JV Europe,

	(each of (b) and (c) an “Exit Event”), provided, however, that to the extent any claim pursuant to this section 11 was notified in writing to the Breaching Party in accordance with this section 11 and is still pending at the time of the earlier of the first anniversary of the Closing Date and an Exit Event, such claim shall continue to be subject to the provisions of this section 11 until such claim is finally resolved.

12.2.1	The Transferred Company has filed in good time all Tax returns and reports in respect of Taxes with the relevant Tax authorities as are required to be filed. For the avoidance of doubt, a tax return is filed in good time if it is filed in accordance with (i) a time limit set forth in the applicable tax code, or (ii) a time limit set by the relevant tax authority in charge. All such Tax returns are true, correct and complete in all material respects.

12.2.2	All Taxes required to have been paid by the Transferred Company have been paid in full in due time.

12.2.9	The Warranties under clauses 12.2.1.1 through 12.2.10 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Transferred Company’s consolidated Affiliates listed in Annex 10.1-1.

12.3	Remedies

12.3.1	In the event one or more of the Warranties given pursuant to this section 12 are incorrect and/or incomplete, the Breaching Party (the Warranting Party breaching such Warranty) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Affected Party (the Party to which such Warranty was given) against any liability of any JV Group Company for the payment of any and all Taxes arising as a result, for the avoidance of doubt, including interest, penalty or addition to Tax charged by the taxing authority relating to such Tax, by payment of an amount equal to such Taxes to the relevant JV Group Company.

12.3.2	If audits by the relevant Tax authorities or other circumstances (including for the avoidance of doubt the filing of tax returns) lead to liabilities of any JV Group Company with regard to Taxes being attributable to the period up to and including 31 December 2007 (the “Pre-Effective-Date Period”) and such Taxes were not paid prior to 1 January 2008, then

		(i)	if and to the extent such Taxes relate to JV Europe or its consolidated Affiliates listed in Annex 10.1-1 then Rockwood Germany shall indemnify and hold harmless Kemira;

		(ii)	if and to the extent such Taxes relate to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp then Rockwood shall indemnify and hold harmless Kemira; or

		(iii)	if and to the extent such Taxes relate to Kemira TiO2, Kemira Inc. or their respective consolidated Affiliates listed in Annex 10.1-1 then Kemira shall indemnify and hold harmless Rockwood and Rockwood Germany

	for and against all Taxes of any JV Group Company arising as a result (including any such Taxes paid prior to the signing of this Agreement) by payment of an amount equal to such Taxes, and for the avoidance of doubt, including interest, penalty or addition to Tax charged by the taxing authority relating to such Tax, to the relevant JV Group Company. The Tax is attributable to the period up to and including 31 December 2007 if the Tax should have been paid on or before 31 December 2007 or should have been accounted for under the applicable generally accepted accounting principles as a liability or a provision in the financial statement as of 31 December 2007. Taxes that relate to the Pre-Effective-Date Period and are reflected in the Financial Information and Valuation and are paid prior to or on 30 April 2008 shall be exempt from indemnification under this section 12.

12.3.3	If acts of a Warranting Party or a Transferred Company that are not connected with the Transferred Company’s Business or transactions that were conducted for the preparation of the Transaction lead to additional Tax liabilities of any JV Group Company for the period after the Pre-Effective-Date Period, the Warranting Party engaged in such acts must or, if a Transferred Company engaged in such acts then (i) Kemira if Kemira TiO2 and Kemira Inc. engaged in such acts, (ii) Rockwood Germany if JV Europe engaged in such acts or (iii) Rockwood if ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp engaged in such acts, must compensate the relevant JV Group Company for all Taxes arising as a result, excluding real estate transfer Tax caused by the Transaction, which shall be borne by the respective JV Group Companies, but including any such real estate transfer Taxes caused by the Water Carve-Out or the transfer of Closed Landfills which shall be borne and reimbursed by Rockwood Germany or Kemira, as the case may be.

12.3.4	The claims for the breach of any Warranty given pursuant to this section 12 and claims under the Tax indemnity shall become time barred upon expiration of a period of six months after the final and binding/non appealable assessment of the respective Tax.

12.3.5	To the extent that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp is included in any consolidated, combined or unitary group with Rockwood or any of its Affiliates for period from 1 January 2008 through the

	Closing Date, JV US shall pay to Rockwood an amount equal to the Tax liability that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp would have incurred for such period computed as if ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp filed a Tax return for such period on a separate company basis, and Rockwood shall otherwise be responsible and shall indemnify and hold harmless JV US from any Taxes imposed on the consolidated, combined or unitary group.

12.3.6	Indemnification or compensation under this section 12 shall be excluded with respect to (i) any Tax if and to the extent such Tax can be recovered by the Transferred Company under a claim against any other party (e.g. claims for reimbursement of VAT against customers, wage tax against employees, withholding Tax or claims for compensation or indemnification against third parties under contractual arrangements) within three months and (ii) any VAT and VAT equivalent indebtedness due to a VAT-group including interest and penalties relating thereto (in this section 12.3.6 “VAT”) if and to the extent the Transferred Company charged with increased VAT relating to the Pre-Effective-Date Period will benefit from correspondingly reduced VAT in the period thereafter due to the attribution of taxable events to the Pre-Effective-Date Period (temporary differences).

12.3.7	If any claim may be made (i) for breach of Warranties or under an indemnity under sections 11, 13 or 14 and (ii) under this section 12 such claim will first be made under Warranties or indemnities pursuant to sections 11, 13 or 14. If and to the extent the claim is satisfied under the Warranties or indemnities under sections 11, 13 or 14, the liability of a Warranting Party under this section 12 will be reduced accordingly. No claim of a Party under this section 12 may be indemnified or satisfied more than once in respect of the same Tax suffered.

12.3.8	In case of any findings, assessments, investigations (including any announcement of a Tax audit) or other administrative procedures of the taxing authorities or legal procedures which may have an effect on any amount payable by the Parties under this section 12 or on any other legal grounds (including but not limited to Tax imposed or to be imposed on the Parties due to a Tax group or fiscal unity), section 15 shall apply (with the indemnifying party being treated as the Warranting Party for purposes of section 15).

12.4	Sections 10.1, 10.3 and 10.4 and sections 11.1 (except for its definitions), 11.2, 11.4.1, 11.4.2 and 11.6 shall not apply to this section 12.

13.2	The Transferred Company holds all material environmental permits, licenses and approvals of the relevant authorities and agencies that are required for the conduct of the Business as it is presently conducted and the consummation of the Transaction will not result in the cancellation, suspension, limitation or other change to any such permits, licenses or approvals, except where such cancellation, suspension, limitation or other change would not have a material adverse impact on the Business.

13.3	The Business has not received written notice of any material violation of any applicable Environmental Law binding upon it that has not been substantially corrected, except for

	violations that could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Business.

13.4	The Business is in all material respects in compliance with all material applicable Environmental Laws, and no investigations, proceedings or enforcement actions of any kind have been instituted or are pending or threatened in writing against the Transferred Company or the Business with respect to any material breach of any Environmental Law.

The Comprehensive Environmental Permit is valid and enforceable and does not contain any terms and conditions that unreasonably restrict the operations of Kemira TiO2. Kemira TiO2 is not and has not been in default of any of the conditions of the Comprehensive Environmental Permit. There are, to Kemira’s best knowledge, no events, circumstances or facts currently in existence based upon which the Comprehensive Environmental Permit can be withdrawn, revoked or cancelled or upon which it will expire without renewal.

13.6	The Audited Annual Accounts include, in accordance with the Accounting Principles applied on the relevant Audited Annual Accounts, specific reservations for all claims and costs relating to Environmental Matters, in particular claims relating to the investigation, monitoring, containment, remediation or disposal of environmental damage (collectively the “Environmental Liabilities”).

13.8	There is no Environmental Contamination on any site (other than a Closed Landfill) formerly used for or by any business operations (including sites that have been sold to third parties) of the Transferred Company, but no longer owned or used by the Transferred Company as of the date of this Agreement (the “Former Sites”), or on or adjacent to the Owned Properties or the Used Properties that would enable the relevant authorities to request that the Business remedy, investigate, secure or minimize the Environmental Contamination according to applicable Environmental Laws.

13.9	There is sufficient capacity available for the permitted disposal of any sewage, waste and emissions (except for the disposal of Copperas, filter cake and ilmenite residue). The Transferred Companies do not own or store (outside the Closed Kemira Landfills) Copperas in excess of 100,000 metric tons.

13.10	Remedies

13.10.1	In the event one or more of the Warranties given under this section 13 are incorrect and/or incomplete, the Breaching Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the JV Group Companies against any and all Environmental Liabilities relating to, resulting from or arising from such incorrect and/or incomplete Warranty under this section 13. Where an Environmental Liability results in the imposition of a duty to act, the Breaching Party shall, at the election of the Affected Party, either properly perform such act or reimburse the JV Group Companies, as applicable, for the external and internal costs incurred in connection with complying with such duty to act, including, but not limited to, the reasonable costs associated with the interruption of business operations necessary to satisfy such duty to act and similar costs, such costs specifically excluding the items listed in section 11.2 (a) trough (d). Where an Environmental Liability results in a payment obligation, the Breaching Party shall, at the election of the Affected Party, pay the JV Group Companies, as applicable, or the relevant authority once such payment obligation comes due.

13.10.2	The Affected Party can only claim indemnification under this section 13 if and to the extent the Environmental Liabilities have been incurred by the Affected Party or one or more of the JV Group Companies and provided that the Affected Party or the JV Group Companies, as applicable, is required to carry out the relevant measures either:

	(a)	pursuant to an unappealable enforceable decision of a competent authority or an Environmental Law; or

	(b)	pursuant to a final and enforceable court judgment, which is not subject to any appeal, resulting from a third-party claim or a claim of a competent authority; or

	(c)	pursuant to a settlement between one of the Parties and a competent authority that has been entered into with the prior consent of the Breaching Party and avoids a decision described in (a) that could otherwise have been legally rendered; or

	(d)	to prevent or mitigate criminal prosecution (including administrative offence proceedings); or

	(e)	because prompt remediation is required pursuant to any Environmental Laws due to an imminent material danger; or

	(f)	insofar as the Breaching Party consented to it.

	In each (a) to (e), the Affected Party shall be entitled to carry out only such measures which are compulsory in order to (i) in cases (a) to (c) fulfill the legal obligations under the respective document and (ii) in cases (d) and (e) avoid the scenario described therein. Neither Party shall be entitled to carry out any proactive measures prior to the occurrence of (a) through (f), which shall in particular include any form of exploration measures (Erkundungsmaßnahmen).

13.10.3	If a JV Group Company becomes aware of any facts that are reasonably likely to give rise to an indemnification claim under section 13.10, such JV Group Company shall notify the Breaching Party thereof in writing without undue delay and, to the extent then feasible, set forth the estimated amount of such claim, provided that the failure to so notify or a delay in so notifying the Breaching Party as provided in this sentence will not relieve the Breaching Party from any liability or obligations which it may have pursuant to section 13.10.

13.10.4	All claims arising pursuant to this section 13 shall be time-barred from the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, provided, however, that to the extent any claim pursuant to this section 13 was notified in writing to the Breaching Party in accordance with this section 13 and is still pending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, as applicable, such claim shall continue to be subject to the provisions of this section 13 until such claim is finally resolved.

13.10.5	Section 10.3 and sections 11.1 (except for its definitions), 11.5 and 11.6 shall not apply to this section 13. For the avoidance of doubt it is hereby set forth that section 11.4 shall apply.

14.	FURTHER INDEMNITIES AND CARVE-OUT OF CLOSED LANDFILLS

14.1	Carve-Out of Closed Landfills

14.1.1	▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ currently owns the Landfills “Halde I”, “Halde IV” and a solid material waste disposal site (Feststoffdeponie, including former sludge lagoons) which will be closed in July 2009 , as described in an indicative manner in Annex 14.1.1-1 (the “▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Closed Landfills”) and Kemira TiO2 currently owns the Pori Landfill, as described in an indicative manner in Annex 14.1.1-2 (the “Kemira Closed Landfills”). The Parties have agreed to carve out the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Closed Landfills and the Kemira Closed Landfills from the JV Group Companies and treat the respective JV Group Companies as if the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Closed Landfills and the Kemira Closed Landfills had never been part of the JV Group Companies.

14.1.2	▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will, subject to the condition precedent (aufschiebende Bedingung) of the execution by the relevant Parties of the Closing Memorandum at Closing, transfer the

	▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Closed Landfills to Rockwood Germany or one of its Affiliates under the terms and conditions of a separate sale and purchase agreement between ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Germany or one of its Affiliates incorporating the key terms set out in Annex 14.1.2 and Kemira TiO2 will, subject to the condition precedent (aufschiebende Bedingung) of the execution by the relevant Parties of the Closing Memorandum at Closing, transfer the Kemira Closed Landfills to Kemira or one of its Affiliates under the terms and conditions of a separate sale and purchase agreement between Kemira TiO2 and Kemira or one of its Affiliates incorporating the key terms set out in Annex 14.1.2 in each case without payment of additional remuneration or assumption of liability except as explicitly permitted by this Agreement. The Parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the transfer of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Closed Landfills and the Kemira Closed Landfills as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date. Any cost associated with the transfer of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Closed Landfills and/or Kemira Closed Landfills shall be borne by Rockwood Germany or its respective Affiliates and Kemira or its respective Affiliates, respectively. To the extent required as a pre-condition to transfer pursuant to this section 14.1.2, Rockwood Germany or its respective Affiliates and Kemira or its respective Affiliates shall obtain their own permit with regard to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Closed Landfills and the Kemira Closed Landfills, respectively, and notify the competent authorities of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Closed Landfill and the Kemira Closed Landfill of the indemnities under this Agreement immediately after the Closing Date and of the respective transfer immediately after such transfer having taken effect.

14.1.3	Rockwood Germany will indemnify and hold harmless ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ against any liability of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in connection with the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Closed Landfills and Kemira will indemnify and hold harmless Kemira TiO2 against any liability of Kemira TiO2 in connection with the Kemira Landfills (e.g. covering, maintenance, structural damages, damages to the cover of the Landfill, leakages), in each case including liabilities relating to the time before the Closing Date. JV Group Companies shall reimburse (i) Rockwood Germany up to an amount of EUR 1,648,000 (allocated as follows: Halde I: EUR 0 (zero); Halde IV: EUR 390,000 and Feststoffdeponie: EUR 1,258,000) and (ii) Kemira up to an amount of EUR 7,789,000, for indemnifying and holding harmless ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Kemira TiO2, as the case may be, under this section 14.1.3.

14.1.4	Kemira TiO2 on behalf of Kemira and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ on behalf of Rockwood Germany (or their respective Affiliates) shall continue to provide ongoing maintenance and monitoring services for the Closed Landfills in the same manner and to the same extent as had been conducted in the twelve months prior to the Closing Date, excluding for the avoidance of doubt any such additional or enhanced measures required by an authority or caused by a deterioration of the environmental condition of the Closed Landfill and any remediation

	measures. Kemira TiO2 shall in particular continue to (i) collect and monitor the water from the Kemira Closed Landfills, and (ii) treat the water pumped from the Kemira Closed Landfills at its own costs as further described in Annex 14.1.4. For the avoidance of doubt, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall provide services for the so-called aftercare phase (ground-water monitoring, maintenance and inspection) related to all dump sites, excluding “Halde III/2”, after 2009, which are reflected in the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ reserve amounting to EUR 282,000.

14.1.5	Without prejudice to any rights under this section 14.1, Kemira TiO2 may continue to use the Kemira Closed Landfills for the deposit of filter cake from its own production until the end of 2008 pursuant to the existing permit.

14.1.6	Kemira TiO2 provided the Western Finland Environmental Permit Authority with a bank guarantee of EUR 7,200,000.00 as security for Kemira TiO2’s obligations in relation to the Kemira Closed Landfills. Kemira shall procure a replacement of such bank guarantee as soon as practicable.

14.2	Other Indemnities

14.2.1	Kemira with regard to the carve-out of a 50 per cent participation previously held by Kemira TiO2 in Kemira Chile Commercial Limitada and Rockwood Germany with regard to the Water Carve-Out shall indemnify and hold harmless the JV Group Companies from all claims, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses relating thereto, including any Tax liability.

14.2.2	Kemira and Rockwood Germany, each with respect to its TiO2 Pigments Business, shall indemnify and hold harmless the JV Group Companies against all claims, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses due to the breach of any antitrust Laws, including European, Finnish, German or United States antitrust Laws, and any investigations by a competent competition authority, including but not limited to, the European Commission, the Finnish Competition Authority (Kilpailuvirasto), the Federal Cartel Office (Bundeskartellamt), the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice or the United States Federal Trade Commission. If any antitrust Laws are breached before the Closing Date and such breach continues after the Closing Date, the claim for indemnification shall be limited pro rata temporis.

14.2.3	Kemira and Rockwood Germany, each with respect to its TiO2 Pigments Business, shall indemnify and hold harmless the JV Group Companies against all product liability claims by third parties relating to products sold before the Closing Date.

14.2.4	Rockwood Germany shall indemnify and hold harmless ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ against all costs and damages in excess of EUR 1,616,000 with regard to the recultivation obligation associated with “Essenberger ▇▇▇▇▇”.

14.2.5	Kemira shall indemnify and hold harmless Kemira TiO2 against the potential claim associated with the divestment of Kemira’s titanium dioxide in the Netherlands to Tronox (▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇) in 2000, as specified in Annex 9.14.

14.2.6	Rockwood Germany with regard to JV Europe and Finnish HoldCo, and Rockwood with regard to JV US, shall indemnify and hold harmless Kemira against

	(a)	all liabilities incurred by JV Europe, Finnish HoldCo or JV US before the Closing Date; and

	(b)	all liabilities arising from JV Europe, Finnish HoldCo or JV US incurring any liability before the Closing Date,

	other than related to JV Europe’s incorporation, any transfer of the shares in JV Europe to Rockwood Germany or in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the JV Agreement or the Master Agreement.

14.3	In the event of an indemnification pursuant to this section 14, the indemnifying Party must compensate the JV Group Companies on a Euro by Euro basis or on a US Dollar for US Dollar basis, as applicable, without any thresholds. Sections 11.3 and 11.5, shall apply to any claim for indemnification under this section 13.1.

15.	THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS

15.1	After receiving written notice of any third-party claim (including any governmental authority) that may trigger a claim by a JV Group Company against the Warranting Party for indemnification pursuant to sections 11, 12.3, 13.10 or 14 (each a “Third Party Claim”), such JV Group Company shall as soon as reasonably feasible give written notice thereof to the Warranting Party, provided that the failure to so notify or a delay in so notifying the Warranting Party as provided in this section 15.1 will not relieve the Warranting Party from any liability or obligations that it may have pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent such Warranting Party shall actually have been materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such Third Party Claim and, to the extent feasible, set forth the estimated amount of such Third Party Claim, and shall include a copy of any relevant correspondence so far exchanged regarding such matter. If without undue delay after having received such notice from a JV Group Company, the Warranting Party sends a written notice to such JV Group Company in which the Warranting Party finally and bindingly accepts its liability as to the Third Party Claim (and specifies the limitations of liability under this Agreement, if any, to which such acceptance is limited), the Warranting Party shall be entitled to assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim employing its own counsel at its sole risk, cost and expense, including all

	related fees and costs of defense (Rechtsverfolgungskosten) (e.g. due to courts, witnesses, experts and including the JV Group Company’s out of pocket expenses).

15.2	As long as the Warranting Party is defending a Third Party Claim, the relevant JV Group Company shall provide or cause to be provided to the Warranting Party information reasonably requested by the Warranting Party relating to such Third Party Claim and the JV Group Company shall otherwise cooperate with the Warranting Party and its representatives in good faith in order to effectively contest such Third Party Claim. If such JV Group Company does not fulfill their aforementioned obligations to provide information and to otherwise cooperate with the Warranting Party in contesting a Third Party Claim, such JV Group Company shall be estopped from asserting a claim for indemnification to the extent such claim is based on the Third Party Claim, but only if and to the extent such failure prejudiced the Warranting Party’s ability to mitigate the Third Party Claim. The Warranting Party shall inform the relevant JV Group Company of all developments and events relating to such claim and such JV Group Company shall be entitled, at its own expense, to employ its own counsel and to attend, but not to actively participate in or to control, all conferences, meetings and proceedings relating to any such Third Party Claim. The Warranting Party shall conduct such proceedings in good faith using reasonable endeavors to take the respective interests of each JV Group Company into account. The relevant JV Group Companies shall fully cooperate with the Warranting Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim, provide the Warranting Party’s representatives access, during normal business hours, to all relevant business records and documents and permit the Warranting Party and its representatives to consult with the directors, employees and representatives of the relevant JV Group Company. If, however, the respective interests of the JV Group Companies, in their reasonable judgment, conflict with those of the Warranting Party, each JV Group Company shall have the right to assume control of the defense at the Warranting Party’s expense. Such conflict shall always be deemed to exist if, as a result of the applicable limitations of liability (including de minimis and caps under sections 11.4.1 and 11.4.2), the Warranting Party will have to bear a liability of 75 per cent or less (or when assuming control of the defense has declared that limitations of liability that would, in its opinion, lead to such limitation apply).

15.3	If the Warranting Party does not assume control of the defense of a specific Third Party Claim, the JV Group Companies shall have full control of such defense and such proceedings and may in their sole discretion contest such Third Party Claim at the Warranting Party’s expense. If requested by the JV Group Companies, the Warranting Party shall cooperate in good faith with such JV Group Companies in order to effectively contest such Third Party Claim at the Warranting Party’s sole risk, cost and expense, including all related fees and costs of the defense (Rechtsverfolgungskosten) (e.g. due to courts,

	witnesses, experts and including each JV Group Company’s out of pocket expenses). The Warranting Party shall be entitled, at its own expense, to employ its own counsel and to attend, but not actively participate in or to control all conferences, meetings and proceedings relating to such Third Party Claim. In no event shall the JV Group Companies be entitled to acknowledge or settle such Third Party Claim, or permit any acknowledgement or settlement of such Third Party Claim without the Warranting Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld.

16.	LOCKED-BOX CONCEPT

16.1	If and to the extent (i) any of the JV Group Companies or (ii) the Parties with respect to any of the JV Group Companies

	(a)	either

		(i)	breached or permitted to breach any of the covenants set out in Section 10.1.1 of the Master Agreement (the “Covenants”) in the time period from the date of this Agreement and until and including the Closing Date; or

		(ii)	have done anything or permitted anything during the time period between the Effective Date and until and including the date of this Agreement that would have constituted a breach of the Covenants, had the Covenant already been applicable during this time period;

	(each such action, a “Breach of the No Leakage Provisions”),

	(b)	unless

		(i)	the relevant Breach of the No Leakage Provisions simultaneously leads to a monetary gain by another JV Group Company; or

		(ii)	the relevant Breach of the No Leakage Provisions has been anticipated and the EBITDA and consolidated net debt effect resulting from such Breach of the No Leakage Provisions is correctly reflected in the valuation pursuant to the Financial Information and Valuation; or

		(iii)	only in the case of a Breach of the No Leakage Provisions pursuant to section (a)(i), a specific accruals (Rückstellungen) has been included in the Annual Audited Accounts to cover such Breach of the No Leakage Provisions; or

		(iv)	the Breach of the No Leakage Provisions has already been remedied by payments that have been made under the Warranties;

	then

	(i) Rockwood Germany in case of a Breach of the No Leakage Provisions by Rockwood Germany, its Affiliates, JV Europe, Finnish HoldCo, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or any of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Affiliates, (ii) Rockwood in case of a Breach of the No Leakage Provisions by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ US, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp or any of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp’s subsidiaries; and (iii) Kemira in case of a Breach of the No Leakage Provisions by Kemira TiO2, Kemira Inc., Maybrook, or any of their respective subsidiaries shall pay to JV Europe or JV US, as applicable, damages in the amount needed to remedy the relevant Breach of the No Leakage Provisions, provided that for purposes of this section 16.1 the amount of damages to be paid shall be determined in accordance with section 249 et seq. of the German Civil Code (BGB).

16.2	For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set out in sections 11 through 13 shall not apply to such compensation obligations.

17.	TRANSFER OF EMPLOYEES

17.1	With effect as of the Closing Date,

	(a)	the employment relationships belonging to the Oberhausen Business Unit, which are listed in Annex 17.1(a) (the “Oberhausen Transferred Employees”), shall pass to JV Europe with all rights and duties pursuant to section 613a of the German Civil Code (BGB) as further set out in section 17.3;

	(b)	the services of the employees belonging to the sales network of Kemira’s TiO2 Pigments Business, which are listed in Annex 17.1(b) (the “Sales Network Employees”), shall be provided to the JV Group Companies pursuant to section 17.9 below.

17.2	The employees of the JV Group Companies including the Oberhausen Transferred Employees, but excluding the Sales Network Employees, shall continue their employment relationships with the respective JV Group Company, (the employees of the JV Group Companies and the Oberhausen Transferred Employees and the Sales Network Employees together the “Transferred Employees”).

17.3	If one or more of the Oberhausen Transferred Employees effectively object to the transfer of his or her employment relationship, JV Europe shall indemnify and reimburse Kemira Germany for all costs and expenses in relation to these employees, in particular costs and

	expenses resulting from the objection against the transfer of the employment relationship, including, but not limited to, the costs of employment, termination of the employment relationship and related costs and legal expenses, but limited to the costs incurred until in respect of each Oberhausen Transferred Employee such date upon which the statutory or contractual notice period ends had a termination notice been given immediately after the objection was received. Kemira Germany will endeavor to terminate such employment contracts at the earliest possible date or to conclude termination agreements.

17.4	If, contrary to the expectations of the Parties, the employment relationships of individual Oberhausen Transferred Employees do not pass to JV Europe by operation of law (but for reasons other than an objection or by an employee giving notice), JV Europe is entitled but not obliged to take over such employment relationships on an individual contractual basis.

17.5	If additional employment relationships transfer to the JV Group Companies, in addition to the employment relationships of the Transferred Employees, pursuant to Law, Rockwood and Kemira (as applicable) shall bear all of the costs and expenses resulting from such transfer, including, but not limited to, the costs of terminating the employment contracts with such employees and related costs and legal expenses. The respective JV Group Company will endeavor to terminate such employment contracts at the earliest possible date or to conclude termination agreements.

17.6	Any obligations (including vested obligations under pension schemes, accrued holiday entitlement, bonuses, stock option plans, old age part-time arrangements), relating to periods before the Effective Date in respect of Transferred Employees shall as between Rockwood Germany and Rockwood on the one hand and Kemira on the other hand be borne and indemnified against by Rockwood Germany (in respect of JV Europe and its non-US Affiliates), Rockwood (in respect of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp) and Kemira (in respect of Kemira TiO2 and Kemira Inc. and their respective Affiliates), except to the extent such obligation is already explicitly mentioned and reflected in the Financial Information and Valuation. For obligations that fell due between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, the JV Group Companies (JV Europe in the case of the Oberhausen Transferred Employees and the relevant JV Europe Group company for the Sales Network Employees) shall bear, and indemnify against, such obligations except as otherwise set out in this Agreement and the Master Agreement, including this section 17, the Warranties and section 16. The value of holiday claims of any Transferred Employees in Germany shall be calculated in accordance with section 7 para 4 of the Federal Holiday Act (Bundesurlaubsgesetz) and settled pro rata temporis for periods before and from the Closing Date.

17.7	Notifications to Transferred Employees:

17.7.1	The JV Group Companies shall jointly prepare all necessary notifications to the Transferred Employees regarding the transfer of the Kemira TiO2 Shares and the Kemira Oberhausen Assets.

17.7.2	The Parties shall inform the Oberhausen Transferred Employees in Germany about the transfer of the business pursuant to section 613a para 5 of the German Civil Code (BGB) with the letter attached as a draft in Annex 17.7.2 within 10 Business Days after the date of this Agreement and the conduct of the general assembly of employees pursuant to section 17.7.1. The facts and plans relating to the Transferred Employees that are notified in this letter are correct and complete from today’s point of view. Following the expiry of the time-limit for declaration of an objection by the employees of the Oberhausen Business Unit pursuant to section 613a para 6 of the German Civil Code (BGB) with regard to the German Transferred Employees and such other statutory Law applicable on other Transferred Employees, the Parties shall inform each other without undue delay (unverzüglich) about any employees who have objected to the transfer of their employment relationship. The Parties shall refrain from acts that could be reasonably likely to cause the Transferred Employees to object to the transfer of their employment relationships, except to the extent that such acts are contemplated by this Agreement.

17.7.3	Within 15 days after the date of this Agreement, Kemira and/or Kemira Germany, as applicable, shall call a general assembly of employees of the Oberhausen Business Unit and give JV Europe the opportunity to inform the Transferred Employees about the change of employer.

17.8	JV Europe shall bear the remuneration for employees’ invention pursuant to sections 9 and 10 of the German Employees’ Invention Act (Arbeitnehmererfindungsgesetz) payable for the employees’ inventions made by the Oberhausen Transferred Employees (whether or not actually transferred) or former employees of the Oberhausen technology center, to the extent that (i) after the Effective Date these are used and taken advantage of by JV Europe or its direct or indirect subsidiaries and (ii) such IP Right or Know-How has been transferred to JV Europe, provided that Kemira Germany shall pay all such remunerations relating to the time period before the Effective Date.

17.9	Effective as of the Closing Date, Kemira and its Affiliates provide to the JV Group Companies sales services in Italy, Spain, France, Singapore, and Chile through their sales network for the duration of one year commencing with the Closing Date, to the extent such Sales Network Employees continue to be employed with Kemira and its Affiliates and provided further that Kemira shall not terminate the employment relationships with an effect

	prior to such one-year period other than for cause. The JV Group Companies shall indemnify and reimburse Kemira and its Affiliates for all reasonable costs and expenses in relation to these sales employees, in particular for all contractual payments, incurred by Kemira and/or its respective Affiliate during such one-year period commencing with the Closing Date. Kemira shall support JV Group Companies if they wish to offer employment to any of these sales employees (including e.g. shortening contractual notice period).

17.10	Except as otherwise provided in the US Transition Services Agreement (as defined in section 17.11), effective as of the Closing Date, (i) all employees of the US Companies who continue employment with JV US (“US Transferred Employees”) shall cease active participation in the US Benefit Plans, (ii) JV US shall establish certain benefit plans (“JV US Benefit Plans”) for the benefit of the US Transferred Employees as determined by JV US, and (iii) the US Transferred Employees shall commence participation in JV US Benefit Plans in accordance with the terms of such plans.

17.11	On the Closing Date and at the request of JV US, JV US and the US Companies shall enter into a transition services agreement in the form attached here as Annex 17.11 (“US Transition Services Agreement”) to provide for the continuation of participation by the US Transferred Employees for a period of time not to exceed the end of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs in the applicable US Benefit Plans that provided health and welfare benefits to such US Transferred Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date.

17.12	US Transferred Employees shall be credited for their length of service with the applicable US Company for purposes of determining eligibility to participate in, satisfying any waiting period, and vesting under JV US Benefit Plans, to the extent they earned credit under comparable US Benefit Plans. Any preexisting condition clause in any of the health coverages (including medical and dental coverage) included in JV US Benefit Plans shall be waived for the US Transferred Employees. JV US shall ensure that each US Transferred Employee receives credit under any JV US Benefit Plan that is a welfare benefit plan for any deductibles or co-payments paid by such US Transferred Employee and his or her dependents for the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs under the applicable US Benefit Plan.

17.13	JV US shall take all steps necessary to permit each US Transferred Employee who has received an eligible rollover distribution (as defined in Section 402(c)(4)) of the IRC) from a US Benefit Plan that is a defined contribution savings plan to roll over such eligible rollover distribution, including any associated loans, as part of any lump sum cash distribution into an account(s) under a 401(k) savings plan established and maintained by JV US.

17.14	After the Closing Date, Kemira TiO2 shall reimburse Kemira for payments made to Mr. Del Dotto

	under the earn-out arrangement originating from the Tri-K acquisition, provided, however, that such reimbursement shall be limited to payments made after 1 April 2008 and shall not exceed USD 1,000,000.00. The obligation to reimburse under this section 17.14 shall not be treated as an Intercompany Receivable within the meaning of the Master Agreement.

18.	TRADEMARKS AND COMPANY NAME “KEMIRA”

18.1	JV Europe, Finnish HoldCo, Kemira TiO2 and Kemira Inc. shall refrain from using the corporate name and the trademark “KEMIRA” and any derivative or abbreviation thereof (the “Kemira Trademarks”) that reasonably implies a connection between the Joint Venture Group Companies on the one hand and Kemira on the other hand immediately after the Closing Date.

18.2	The JV Group Companies shall, however, be allowed to:

	(a)	sell off products and packaging and use up labels bearing the Kemira Trademarks for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date, provided that such products, packaging and labels are held in stock by Kemira TiO2 or Kemira Inc. or are part of the Kemira Oberhausen Assets as of the Closing Date; and

	(b)	use up business paper and advertising materials bearing the Kemira Trademarks for a period of six (6) months after the Closing Date.

18.3	Kemira TiO2 and Kemira Inc. shall change their company names within three (3) months after the Closing Date to new company names that do not contain the Kemira Trademarks or any other element that reasonably implies a connection between Kemira TiO2 and Kemira Inc. on the one hand and Kemira on the other hand. Kemira TiO2 and Kemira Inc. may, however, use a reference to their former character as an affiliate of Kemira (e.g. “former Kemira Pigments Business”) for a period of one year after the Closing Date.

19.	CONFIDENTIALITY

The Parties must also keep secret any information they have about each other and about the enterprises affiliated with the respective other Party as defined in section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG), to the extent that such information is not known or available to the public, or the respective other Party has not consented to the disclosure of the information.

19.2	If any disclosure or announcement of confidential matters referred to in section 19.1 is required by Law or any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, such disclosure may be made by the Party that is required to make such disclosure after consultation with the other Parties, unless such consultation is not practically possible before a Party is required to make a disclosure.

21.	AUTHORIZED AGENT

21.1	Kemira and Kemira Germany hereby appoint the law firm of Gleiss ▇▇▇▇ Hootz ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Partnerschaftsgesellschaft von Rechtsanwälten, Steuerberatern, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, as their agent for service of process (Zustellungsbevollmächtigter) for all legal proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement. This appointment shall only terminate upon the appointment of another agent for service of process domiciled in Germany, provided that the agent for service of

	process is an attorney admitted to the German bar (in Deutschland zugelassener Rechtsanwalt) and his appointment has been notified to and approved in writing by Rockwood (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld).

	Should any provision of this Agreement, or any provision incorporated into this Agreement in the future, be or become invalid or unenforceable, the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be deemed to be substituted with retroactive effect by a suitable and equitable provision that, to the extent legally permissible, comes as close as possible to the intent and purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision. The same shall apply: (i) if the Parties have, unintentionally, failed to address a certain matter in this Agreement (Regelungslücke); in case a suitable and equitable provision shall be deemed to have been agreed upon with retroactive effect and which comes as close as possible to what the Parties, in the light of the intent and purpose of this Agreement, would have agreed upon if they had considered the matter; or (ii) if any provision of this Agreement is invalid because of the scope of any time period of performance stipulated herein; in this case a legally permissible time period or performance shall be deemed to have been agreed which comes as close as possible to the stipulated time period or performance.
