THIS RECEIVABLES SALE AGREEMENT, dated as of June 27, 2005, is by and among ARCH CHEMICALS, INC., a Virginia corporation, ARCH CHEMICALS SPECIALTY PRODUCTS, INC., a Delaware corporation, ARCH TREATMENT TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Virginia corporation, ARCH WOOD PROTECTION, INC., a Delaware corporation, ARCH PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS, L.P., a New Jersey limited partnership (each, an “Originator” and collectively, the “Originators”), and ARCH CHEMICALS RECEIVABLES CORP., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”). Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I hereto (or, if not defined in Exhibit I hereto, the meaning assigned to such term in Exhibit I to the Purchase Agreement).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

Each Originator now owns, and from time to time hereafter will own, Receivables. Such Originator wishes to sell and assign to Buyer, and Buyer wishes to purchase from such Originator, all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivables, together with the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto.

Each Originator and Buyer intend the transactions contemplated hereby to be true sales of the Receivables from such Originator to Buyer, providing Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables, and the Originators and Buyer do not intend these transactions to be, or for any purpose to be characterized as, loans from Buyer to any Originator.

Following the purchase of Receivables from the Originators, Buyer will sell undivided interests therein and in the associated Related Security and Collections pursuant to that certain Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of June 27, 2005 (as the same may from time to time hereafter be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the “Purchase Agreement”) among Buyer, Arch Chemicals, Inc. (“Arch Chemicals”), as initial Servicer, Three Pillars Funding LLC (“TPF”), and SunTrust Capital Markets, Inc. (“STCM”), as agent and administrator pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement (in such capacity, the “Administrator”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Article I

Amounts and Terms of the Purchase

Section 1.1 Initial Contribution of Receivables.

On the date hereof, each Originator does hereby contribute, assign, transfer, set-over and otherwise convey to Buyer, and Buyer does hereby accept from such Originator, Receivables originated by such Originator and existing as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the date hereof (the “Initial Cutoff Date”) having an aggregate Outstanding Balance in the amounts set forth on Schedule 1.1 (the “Initial Contributed Receivables”), together with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof.

Section 1.2 Purchase of Receivables.

(a) Effective on the date hereof, in consideration for the Purchase Price and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, each Originator does hereby sell, assign, transfer, set-over and otherwise convey to Buyer, without recourse (except to the extent expressly provided herein), and Buyer does hereby purchase from each Originator, all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to all Receivables existing as of the close of business on the Initial Cutoff Date (other than the Initial Contributed Receivables) and all Receivables thereafter arising through and including the Termination Date, together, in each case, with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof. In accordance with the preceding sentence, on the date hereof Buyer shall acquire all of each Originators’ right, title and interest in and to all Receivables existing as of the Initial Cut-Off Date and thereafter arising through and including the Termination Date, together with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof. Buyer shall be obligated to pay the Purchase Price for the Receivables purchased hereunder in accordance with Section 1.3.

(b) On the Monthly Reporting Date, each Originator shall (or shall require the Servicer to) deliver to Buyer a report in substantially the form of Exhibit VII hereto (each such report being herein called a “Purchase Report”) with respect to the Receivables sold by each Originator to Buyer during the Settlement Period then most recently ended. In addition to, and not in limitation of, the foregoing, in connection with the payment of the Purchase Price for any Receivables purchased hereunder, Buyer may request that each Originator deliver, and each Originator shall deliver, such approvals, opinions, information or documents as Buyer may reasonably request.

(c) It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a sale and/or contribution, which sale and/or contribution, as the case may be, is absolute and irrevocable and provides Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables. Except for the Purchase Price Credits owed pursuant to Section 1.4, the sale of Receivables hereunder is made without recourse to any Originator; provided, however, that (i) each Originator shall be liable to Buyer for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by such Originator pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents to which such Originator is a party, and (ii) such sale does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by Buyer or any assignee thereof of any obligation of any Originator or any other Person arising in connection with the Receivables, the related Contracts and/or other Related Security or any other obligations of any Originator. In view of the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a sale of such Receivables rather than loans secured thereby, each Originator agrees that it will, on or prior to the date hereof and in accordance with Section 4.1(e)(ii), ▇▇▇▇ its master data processing system and all accounts receivable reports generated thereby, each Confidential Contract and its records relating to all other Contracts with a legend reasonably acceptable to Buyer and to the Administrator (as Buyer’s assignee), evidencing that Buyer has purchased such Receivables as provided in this Agreement and to note in its financial statements that its Receivables have been absolutely transferred to Buyer. Upon the request of Buyer or the Administrator (as Buyer’s assignee), each Originator will execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect and maintain the perfection of Buyer’s ownership interest in the Receivables and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, or as Buyer or the Administrator (as Buyer’s assignee) may reasonably request; provided, however, that unless and until an Amortization Event or an Unmatured Amortization Event has occurred, none of the Originators shall be required to take any actions to establish, maintain or perfect the Buyer’s ownership interest in the Related Security other than the filing of financing statements under the UCC of all appropriate jurisdictions.

Section 1.3 Payment for the Purchase.

(a) The Purchase Price for the Purchase of Receivables in existence as of the close of business on the Initial Cutoff Date (other than the Initial Contributed Receivables) shall be payable in full by Buyer to each Originator on the date hereof, and shall be paid to each Originator in the following manner:

(i) by delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds on hand to Buyer or made available to Buyer in connection with its subsequent sale of an interest in such Receivables to TPF under the Purchase Agreement; provided that a portion of such funds shall be offset by amounts such Originator has agreed to make as capital contributions such that after giving effect thereto, the Buyer’s Net Worth shall not be less than the Required Capital Amount, and

(ii) the balance, by delivery of the proceeds of the related subordinated revolving loan from such Originator to Buyer (each, a “Subordinated Loan” and collectively, the “Subordinated Loans”) in an amount not to exceed the least of (A) the remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price, (B) the maximum Subordinated Loan that could be borrowed without rendering Buyer’s Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount, and (C) fifteen percent (15%) of such Purchase Price. Each Originator is hereby authorized by Buyer to endorse on the schedule attached to the related Subordinated Note an appropriate notation evidencing the date and amount of each advance thereunder, as well as the date of each payment with respect thereto, provided that the failure to make such notation shall not affect any obligation of Buyer thereunder.

The Purchase Price for each Receivable coming into existence and purchased by the Buyer after the Initial Cutoff Date shall be due and owing in full by Buyer to the related Originator or its designee on the date each such Receivable came into existence (except that Buyer may, with respect to any such Purchase Price, offset against such Purchase Price any amounts owed by such Originator to Buyer hereunder and which have become due but remain unpaid) and shall be paid to such Originator in the manner provided in the following paragraphs (b), (c) and (d).

(b) With respect to any Receivables coming into existence after the Initial Cutoff Date, on each Settlement Date, Buyer shall pay, to the relevant Originator, the Purchase Price therefor in accordance with Section 1.3(d) and in the following manner:

first, by delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds available to Buyer from its subsequent sale of an interest in the Receivables to TPF under the Purchase Agreement or other cash on hand; and

second, either (i) by delivery of the proceeds of the related Subordinated Loan, provided that the making of any such Subordinated Loan shall be subject to the provisions set forth in Section 1.3(a)(ii) or (ii) unless such Originator or Buyer has declared the Termination Date to have occurred pursuant to this Agreement, by accepting a contribution to its capital in an amount equal to the remaining unpaid balance of such Purchase Price.

Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 1.3(a)(ii), each Originator irrevocably agrees to advance each related Subordinated Loan requested by Buyer on or prior to the Termination Date. The Subordinated Loans shall be evidenced by, and shall be payable in accordance with the terms and provisions of the related Subordinated Note and shall be payable solely from funds which Buyer is not required under the Purchase Agreement to set aside for the benefit of, or otherwise pay over to, TPF.

(c) From and after the Termination Date, no Originator shall be obligated to (but may, at its option): (i) sell Receivables to Buyer, or (ii) contribute Receivables to Buyer’s capital pursuant to clause third of Section 1.3(b) unless, in either case, such Originator reasonably determines that the Purchase Price therefor will be satisfied with funds available to Buyer from sales of interests in the Receivables pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Collections, proceeds of Subordinated Loans, other cash on hand or otherwise.

(d) Although the Purchase Price for each Receivable coming into existence after the Initial Cutoff Date shall be due and payable in full by Buyer to the related Originator on the date such Receivable came into existence, settlement of the Purchase Price between Buyer and such Originator shall be effected on a monthly basis on Settlement Dates with respect to all Receivables coming into existence during the same Calculation Period and based on the information contained in the Purchase Report delivered by such Originator for the Calculation Period then most recently ended. Although settlement shall be effected on Settlement Dates, increases or decreases in the amount owing under the related Subordinated Note made pursuant to Section 1.3 and any contribution of capital by an Originator to Buyer made pursuant to Section 1.3(b) shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be effective as of the last Business Day of the Calculation Period to which such settlement relates.

Section 1.4 Purchase Price Credit Adjustments.

If on any day:

(a) the Outstanding Balance of a Receivable is:

(i) reduced or cancelled as a result of any defective or rejected goods or services, any cash discount or any other adjustment or otherwise by any Originator or any Affiliate thereof, or as a result of any governmental or regulatory action, or,

(ii) reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff in respect of any claim by the Obligor thereof (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction), or

(iii) reduced on account of the obligation of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof to pay to the related Obligor any rebate or refund; or

(iv) less than the amount included in calculating the Outstanding Balance for purposes of any Purchase Report (for any reason other than such Receivable becoming a Defaulted Receivable or payment in full of the entire Outstanding Balance being made on such Receivable); or

(b) any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.1(h), Section 2.1(i), Section 2.1(j), Section 2.1(r), Section 2.1(s), Section 2.1(t) are not true when made or deemed made with respect to any Receivable,

then, in such event, Buyer shall be entitled to a credit (each, a “Purchase Price Credit”) against the Purchase Price otherwise payable hereunder equal to, in the case of clause (a) above, the amount of such reductions relating to such Receivable and, in the case of clause (b) above, the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable (calculated before giving effect to the applicable reduction or cancellation). If such Purchase Price Credit exceeds the Original Balance of the Receivables coming into existence on any day, then the related Originator shall pay the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit in cash immediately, provided that if the Termination Date has not occurred, such Originator shall be allowed to deduct the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit from any indebtedness owed to it under its Subordinated Note.

Section 1.5 Payments and Computations, Etc.

All amounts to be paid or deposited by Buyer hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof on the day when due in immediately available funds to the account of the related Originator designated from time to time by such Originator or as otherwise directed by such Originator. In the event that any payment owed by any Person hereunder becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. If any Person fails to pay any amount hereunder when due, such Person agrees to pay, on demand, the Default Fee in respect thereof until paid in full; provided, however, that such Default Fee shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. All computations of interest payable hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed.

Section 1.6 Transfer of Records.

(a) In connection with the Purchase of Receivables hereunder, each Originator hereby sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to Buyer all of such Originator’s right and title to and interest in the Records relating to all Receivables sold or contributed by it hereunder, without the need for any further documentation in connection with the Purchase (it being understood and agreed that any Records that are not freely assignable (whether by express provision or by virtue of confidentiality provisions) according to their terms are excluded from such sale, transfer, assignment or conveyance; provided, that upon reasonable request of the Buyer (or its assigns), the applicable Originator will use its reasonable efforts to obtain consent to the assignment from the relevant counterparty). In connection with such transfer, each Originator hereby grants to each of Buyer, the Administrator and the Servicer an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, without royalty or payment of any kind, all software used by such Originator to account for the Receivables, to the extent necessary to administer the Receivables, whether such software is owned by such Originator or is owned by others and used by such Originator under license agreements with respect thereto, provided that should the consent of any licensor of such software be required for the grant of the license described herein, to be effective, the applicable Originator hereby agrees that upon the reasonable request of Buyer (or Buyer’s assignee), such Originator will use its reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such third-party licensor. The license granted hereby shall be irrevocable until the indefeasible payment in full of the Aggregate Unpaids, and shall terminate on the date this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms.

(b) Each Originator (i) shall take such action requested by Buyer and/or the Administrator (as Buyer’s assignee), from time to time hereafter, that may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to ensure that Buyer and its assigns under the Purchase Agreement have an enforceable ownership interest in the Records relating to the Receivables purchased from the Originators hereunder ; provided, however, that the applicable Originator shall not be required to take any actions with respect to its Records other than those required by Sections 1.6(a) and 4.1(e) hereto unless and until an Unmatured Amortization Event has occurred, and (ii) shall use its reasonable efforts to ensure that Buyer, the Administrator and the Servicer each has an enforceable right (whether by license or sublicense or otherwise) to use all of the computer software used to account for the Receivables and/or to recreate such Records.

Section 1.7 Characterization.

If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 1.2(c), any sale or contribution by any Originator to Buyer of Receivables hereunder shall be characterized as a secured loan and not a sale or contribution or such sale or contribution, as the case may be, shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable, then this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the UCC and other applicable law. For this purpose and without being in derogation of the parties’ intention that the sale of Receivables hereunder shall constitute a true sale thereof, each Originator hereby grants to Buyer a security interest in all of such Originator’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under all Receivables now existing and hereafter arising, all Collections and Related Security with respect thereto, each Lock-Box and Collection Account, all other rights and payments relating to the Receivables and all proceeds of the foregoing to secure the prompt and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the Purchase Price of the Receivables together with all other obligations of such Originator hereunder, which security interest shall be prior to all other Adverse Claims thereto. Buyer and its assigns shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which they may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

Article II

Representations and Warranties

Section 2.1 Representations and Warranties of each Originator.

Each Originator with respect to itself, hereby represents and warrants to Buyer on the date hereof, on the date of the Purchase and on each date that any Receivable comes into existence that:

(a) Existence and Power. Such Originator’s jurisdiction of organization is correctly set forth in Exhibit II to this Agreement and such jurisdiction is its sole jurisdiction of organization. Such Originator is duly organized under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and is a “registered organization” as defined in the UCC in effect in such jurisdiction. Such Originator is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and no other state or jurisdiction, and as to which such state or jurisdiction must maintain a public record showing the organization to have been organized. Such Originator is qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign entity, and has and holds all corporate power and all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted except where the failure to so qualify or so hold could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Power and Authority; Due Authorization, Execution and Delivery. The execution and delivery by such Originator of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder and, such Originator’s use of the proceeds of the Purchase made hereunder, are within its organizational powers and authority and have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational action on its part. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which such Originator is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such Originator.

(c) No Conflict. The execution and delivery by such Originator of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder do not contravene or violate (i) its Organizational Documents, (ii) any law, rule or regulation applicable to it, (iii) any restrictions under any agreement, contract or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding on or affecting it or its property, and do not result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim on assets of such Originator or its Subsidiaries (except as created hereunder) except, in any case, where such contravention or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and no transaction contemplated hereby requires compliance with any bulk sales act or similar law.

(d) Governmental Authorization. Other than the filing of the financing statements required hereunder, no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for the due execution and delivery by such Originator of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

(e) Actions, Suits. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending, or to the best of such Originator’s knowledge, threatened, against it, or any of its properties, in or before any court, arbitrator or other body, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Originator is not in default with respect to any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) Binding Effect. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which such Originator is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Originator enforceable against such Originator in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(g) Accuracy of Information. All information (other than any projection or other forward-looking information) heretofore furnished by such Originator or any of its Affiliates to Buyer (or its assigns) for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby is, and all such information (other than any projection or other forward-looking information) hereafter furnished by such Originator or any of its Affiliates to Buyer (or its assigns) will be, true and accurate in every material respect on the date such information is stated or certified and does not and will not contain any material misstatement of fact.

(h) Use of Proceeds. No portion of any Purchase Price payment hereunder will be used by such Originator (i) for a purpose that violates, or would be inconsistent with, any law, rule or regulation applicable to such Originator or (ii) to acquire any security in any transaction which is subject to Section 12, 13 or 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended other than the repurchase of equity securities of Arch Chemicals so long as such repurchase does not violate Sections 12, 13 or 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(i) Good Title. Immediately prior to the Purchase hereunder and upon the creation of each Receivable coming into existence after the Initial Cut-Off Date, such Originator (i) is the legal and beneficial owner of the Receivables created by it and (ii) is the legal and beneficial owner of the Related Security with respect thereto, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, except as created by the Transaction Documents. There have been duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect such Originator’s ownership interest in each Receivable, its Collections, “Supporting Obligations” (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC in effect in each relevant jurisdiction), each Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, returned goods the sale of which gave rise to any Receivable, security interests in favor of any Originator that secure payment of such Receivable and all other items of Related Security in which an interest therein may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under Article 9 of the UCC and proceeds of the foregoing.

(j) Perfection. This Agreement, together with the filing of the financing statements contemplated hereby, is effective to transfer to Buyer (and Buyer shall acquire from such Originator) (i) legal and equitable title to, with the right to sell and encumber each Receivable existing and hereafter arising, together with the Collections with respect thereto, and (ii) all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in the Related Security associated with each Receivable, in each case, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, except as created by the Transactions Documents. There have been duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect Buyer’s ownership interest in the Receivables, its Collections, “Supporting Obligations” (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC in effect in each relevant jurisdiction), each Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, returned goods the sale of which gave rise to any Receivable, security interests in favor of any Originator that secure payment of such Receivable and all other items of Related Security in which an interest therein may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under Article 9 of the UCC and proceeds of the foregoing. Such Originator’s jurisdiction of organization is a jurisdiction whose law generally requires information concerning the existence of a nonpossessory security interest to be made generally available in a filing, record or registration system as a condition or result of such a security interest’s obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor which respect to collateral.

(k) Places of Business and Locations of Records. The principal places of business and chief executive office of such Originator and the offices where it keeps all of its Records are located at the address(es) listed on Exhibit II or such other locations of which Buyer has been notified in accordance with Section 4.2(a) in jurisdictions where all action required by Section 4.2(a) has been taken and completed. Such Originator’s Federal Employer Identification Number is correctly set forth on Exhibit II.

(l) Collections. The conditions and requirements set forth in subclause (i) of Section 4.1(i) have at all times since June 27, 2005, been satisfied and duly performed. The conditions and requirements set forth in subclause (ii) of Section 4.1(i) have been satisfied from and after the Closing Date. The names and addresses of all Collection Banks, together with the account numbers of the Collection Accounts of such Originator at each Collection Bank and the post office box number of each Lock-Box, are listed on Exhibit III. Such Originator has not granted any Person, other than Buyer (and its assigns) dominion and control of any Lock-Box or Collection Account, or the right to take dominion and control of any such Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future time or upon the occurrence of a future event.

(m) Material Adverse Effect. Since March 31, 2005, no event has occurred that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(n) Names. The name in which such Originator has executed this Agreement is identical to the name of such Originator as indicated on the public record of its state of organization which shows such Originator to have been organized. In the past five (5) years, such Originator has not used any corporate names, trade names or assumed names other than the name in which it has executed this Agreement and as listed on Exhibit II.

(o) Ownership of Buyer. Arch Chemicals owns, directly or indirectly, 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Buyer, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. Such equity interests are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire securities of Buyer.

(p) Not a Holding Company or an Investment Company. Such Originator is not a “holding company” or a “subsidiary holding company” of a “holding company” within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended, or any successor statute. Such Originator is not an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor statute.

(q) Compliance with Law. Such Originator has complied in all respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to which it may be subject, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Receivable, together with the Contract related thereto, does not contravene any laws, rules or regulations applicable thereto (including, without limitation, laws, rules and regulations relating to truth in lending, fair credit billing, fair credit reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices and privacy), and no part of such Contract is in violation of any such law, rule or regulation, except where such contravention or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(r) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. Such Originator has complied in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable and the related Contract, and has not made any material change to such Credit and Collection Policy, except such material change as to which Buyer (or its assigns) has been notified in accordance with Section 4.1(a)(vii).

(s) Payments to Originator. With respect to each Receivable transferred to Buyer hereunder, the Purchase Price received by such Originator constitutes reasonably equivalent value in consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt. No transfer by such Originator of any Receivable hereunder is or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq.), as amended.

(t) Enforceability of Contracts. Each Contract with respect to each Receivable is effective to create, and has created, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor to pay the Outstanding Balance of the Receivable created thereunder and any accrued interest thereon, enforceable against the Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(u) Eligible Receivables. Each Receivable reflected in any Purchase Report as an Eligible Receivable was an Eligible Receivable on the date of its acquisition by Buyer hereunder.

(v) Accounting. The manner in which such Originator accounts for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement does not jeopardize the characterization of the transactions contemplated herein as being true sales.

(w) Contract Provisions. Except for customary adjustments in the ordinary course of business, no Contract with respect to any Receivable contains provisions that either (i) permit or provide for any reduction in the Outstanding Balance of the Receivable created thereunder and any accrued interest thereon or (ii) could otherwise hinder the ability to receive Collections with respect to such Receivable.

(i) the representations and warranties set forth in Article II are true and correct on and as of the date such Receivable came into existence as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date; and

(ii) no event has occurred and is continuing that will constitute a Termination Event or an Unmatured Termination Event.

Notwithstanding the foregoing conditions precedent, upon payment of the Purchase Price for any Receivable (whether by payment of cash, through an increase in the amounts outstanding under the related Subordinated Note, by offset of amounts owed to Buyer and/or by offset of capital contributions), title to such Receivable and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto shall vest in Buyer, whether or not the conditions precedent to Buyer’s obligation to pay for such Receivable were in fact satisfied. The failure of any Originator to satisfy any of the foregoing conditions precedent, however, shall give rise to a right of Buyer to rescind the related purchase and direct such Originator to pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Purchase Price payment that shall have been made with respect to any Receivables related thereto.

(a) Each Originator agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents, and take all actions, that may be necessary or desirable, or that Buyer (or its assigns) may request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the interest of Buyer hereunder and the Receivable Interests, or to enable Buyer (or its assigns) to exercise and enforce their rights and remedies hereunder; provided, however, that unless and until an Amortization Event or an Unmatured Amortization Event has occurred, none of the Originators shall be required to take any actions to establish, maintain or perfect the Buyer’s ownership interest in the Related Security other than the filing of financing statements under the UCC of all appropriate jurisdictions. During the occurrence and continuance of an Unmatured Amortization or an Amortization Event, Buyer (or its assigns) may, at the related Originator’s sole cost and expense, direct such Originator to notify the Obligors of Receivables of the ownership interests of Buyer under this Agreement. During the occurrence and continuance of an Unmatured Amortization or an Amortization Event, Buyer (or its assigns) may direct any Originator (and if any Originator fails to do so) Buyer (or its assigns) may direct that payments of all amounts due or that become due under any or all Receivables be made directly to an account specified by the Buyer or its designee which may be an account of the Buyer (or its assigns).

(b) If any Originator fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder, Buyer (and Administrator, as Buyer’s assignee) may (but shall not be required to) upon notice to such Originator perform, or cause performance of, such obligations, and Buyer’s (or such assigns’) costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Originator as provided in Section 6.2. Each Originator irrevocably authorizes Buyer (and Administrator, as Buyer’s assignee) at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of Buyer (or such assignee), and appoints Buyer (and such assignee) as its attorney(ies)-in-fact, to act on behalf of such Originator (i) to execute (if required) on behalf of such Originator as debtor or seller and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in Buyer’s (or such assignee’s) sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the ownership interest of Buyer in the Receivables and associated Related Security and Collections and (ii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Receivables as a financing statement in such offices as Buyer (or Administrator, as Buyer’s assignee) in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of Buyer’s ownership interest in the Receivables. This appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. (A) Each Originator hereby authorizes Buyer (and Administrator, as Buyer’s assignee) to file financing statements and other filing or recording documents with respect to the Receivables and Related Security (including any amendments thereto, or continuation or termination statements thereof), without further authorization of such Originator, in such form and in such offices as Buyer (or such assignee) reasonably determines appropriate to perfect or maintain the perfection of the ownership or security interests of Buyer (and Administrator, as Buyer’s assignee) hereunder, (B) each Originator acknowledges and agrees that it is not authorized to, and will not, file financing statements or other filing or recording documents with respect to the Receivables or Related Security (including any amendments thereto, or continuation or termination statements thereof), without the express prior written approval by the Administrator (as Buyer’s assignee), consenting to the form and substance of such filing or recording document, and (C) each Originator approves, authorizes and ratifies any filings or recordings made by or on behalf of the Administrator (as Buyer’s assignee) in connection with the perfection of the ownership or security interests in favor of Buyer or the Administrator (as Buyer’s assignee).

Section 7.4 Confidentiality.

(a) Each Originator shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of the Fee Letter and any confidential or proprietary information with respect to TPF and TPF’s business obtained by it or them in connection with the structuring, negotiating and execution of the transactions contemplated herein, except that such Originator and its officers and employees may disclose such information to such Originator’s directors, external accountants and attorneys and in accordance with any applicable law, rule, regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings (whether or not having the force or effect of law).

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Originator hereby consents to the disclosure of any nonpublic information with respect to it (i) to Buyer, the Administrator, SunTrust Bank or TPF by each other, (ii) by Buyer, the Administrator, SunTrust Bank or TPF to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of any of them and (iii) by the Administrator to any rating agency, Commercial Paper dealer or provider of a surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to TPF or any entity organized for the purpose of purchasing, or making loans secured by, financial assets for which STCM or one of its affiliates acts as the administrator and/or agent and to any officers, directors, employees, outside accountants and attorneys of any of the foregoing, provided each such Person is informed of the confidential nature of such information. In addition, TPF, SunTrust Bank and the Administrator may disclose any such nonpublic information in accordance with any law, rule, regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings (whether or not having the force or effect of law).

(c) Buyer shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of any confidential or proprietary information with respect to each Originator, the Obligors and their respective businesses obtained by it in connection with the due diligence evaluations, structuring, negotiating and execution of the Transaction Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and any other activities of Buyer arising from or related to the transactions contemplated herein provided, however, that each of Buyer and its employees and officers shall be permitted to disclose such confidential or proprietary information: (i) to the Administrator, TPF and SunTrust Bank, (ii) to any prospective or actual assignee or participant who executes a confidentiality agreement for the benefit of any Originator and Buyer on terms comparable to those required of Buyer hereunder with respect to such disclosed information, (iii) to any rating agency, provider of a surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to TPF, (iv) to any officers, directors, employees, outside accountants and attorneys of any of the foregoing, and (v) to the extent required pursuant to any applicable law, rule, regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings with competent jurisdiction (whether or not having the force or effect of law) so long as such required disclosure is made under seal to the extent permitted by applicable law or by rule of court or other applicable body; provided each such Person is informed of the confidential nature of such information.

Section 7.5 Bankruptcy Petition.

(a) Each of the Originators and Buyer hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of TPF, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, TPF any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.

(b) Each of the Originators covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding obligations of Buyer under the Purchase Agreement, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, Buyer any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.

Section 7.6 Limitation of Liability.

Except with respect to any claim arising out of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of TPF, the Administrator or any Liquidity Bank, no claim may be made by any Originator or any other Person against TPF, the Administrator or any Liquidity Bank or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and each Originator hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to ▇▇▇ upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

Section 7.7 CHOICE OF LAW.

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (AND NOT THE LAW OF CONFLICTS OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 7.8 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT EXECUTED BY ORIGINATOR PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF BUYER (OR ITS ASSIGNS) TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY ORIGINATOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY ANY ORIGINATOR AGAINST BUYER (OR ITS ASSIGNS) OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT EXECUTED BY ANY ORIGINATOR PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK.

Section 7.9 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY DOCUMENT EXECUTED BY ANY ORIGINATOR PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

Section 7.10 Integration; Binding Effect; Survival of Terms.

(a) This Agreement and each other Transaction Document contain the final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof superseding all prior oral or written understandings.

(b) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Originator, Buyer and their respective successors and permitted assigns (including any trustee in bankruptcy). No Originator may assign any of its rights and obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Buyer. Buyer may assign at any time its rights and obligations hereunder and interests herein to any other Person without the consent of any Originator. Without limiting the foregoing, each Originator acknowledges that Buyer, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, may assign to the Administrator, for the benefit of TPF and its assigns, its rights, remedies, powers and privileges hereunder and that the Administrator may further assign such rights, remedies, powers and privileges to the extent permitted in the Purchase Agreement. Each Originator agrees that the Administrator, as the assignee of Buyer, shall, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, have the right to enforce this Agreement and to exercise directly all of Buyer’s rights and remedies under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the right to give or withhold any consents or approvals of Buyer to be given or withheld hereunder) and each Originator agrees to cooperate fully with the Administrator in the exercise of such rights and remedies. This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms and shall remain in full force and effect until terminated in accordance with its terms; provided, however, that the rights and remedies with respect to (i) any breach of any representation and warranty made by any Originator pursuant to Article II; (ii) the indemnification and payment provisions of Article VI; and (iii) Section 7.5 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 7.11 Counterparts; Severability; Section References.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any provisions of this Agreement which are prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all references herein to “Article,”“Section,”“Schedule” or “Exhibit” shall mean articles and sections of, and schedules and exhibits to, this Agreement.

Indebtedness and other rights and obligations arising from any one transaction, including, without limitation, indebtedness and other rights and obligations represented by an individual invoice, shall constitute a Receivable separate from a Receivable consisting of the indebtedness and other rights and obligations arising from any other transaction; provided, further, that any indebtedness, rights or obligations referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be a Receivable regardless or whether the account debtor or the related Originator treats such indebtedness, rights or obligations as a separate payment obligation; it being understood that any Receivable for which the Buyer has received a Purchase Price Credit pursuant to Section 1.4(b) in an amount equal to the full Outstanding Balance thereof shall not constitute a Receivable hereunder.

CREDIT AND COLLECTION POLICY

CREDIT

1.	OBJECTIVES

Ø	Credit sales are made only to customers having the financial ability to pay.

Ø	Collections are made for all credit sales.

Ø	All write-offs of uncollectible customer account balances are authorized.

2.	CREDIT CONTROL & CREDIT LINE ESTABLISHMENT

2.1 Control Considerations

1.	Credit department operations are to be separate from the marketing or sales function. This is necessary to ensure the independent credit judgment essential for protection of the company’s investment in trade accounts receivable.

Credit approval authority resides with the Director, Corporate Credit, or in the case of decentralized credit management, credit approval authority is to be designated and delegated by the senior finance management of each division or subsidiary (See Exhibit A, Table of Authority, Credit Line Approval Levels). Such delegation is to be in writing, and is to state the credit line amount beyond which higher management approval is required. It is permissible to re-delegate credit approval authority to additional personnel within the credit function or finance, as appropriate.

Credit terms are to be approved by the business segment’s General Manager or Financial Officer, or by their delegate, and by the Director of Corporate Credit, as required (see special credit terms, section 2.6 below). In the case of decentralized divisions and subsidiaries, credit terms are to be approved by the senior manager and senior credit executive of such entities.

2.2 Credit Applications

Applications for credit terms may result from correspondence direct from customers, or as a result of contacts with prospective customers by marketing or sales personnel. The sales or customer service representative contacted by the customer is required to have the customer complete the Arch Chemicals Customer Information Application (See Exhibit C for attached copy), or to complete a comparable credit application or credit information form. All such credit applications are to be promptly forwarded to the Director of Corporate Credit, or to a designated credit manager or analyst, for handling.

2.	The Arch Chemicals credit application, or other similar form utilized by the customer or Arch business segment, should generally contain the following information:

§	Customer's name and address

§	Names and titles of customer contacts

§	Bank and trade references

§	Estimated annual or monthly sales volume

§	Credit line requested

§	Tax-exempt status

§	Signatures (i.e., Applicant, Arch Sales Manager, Arch Credit Manager)

3.	If the sales to the prospective customer will be tax exempt, the customer is to supply a copy of their tax exemption certificate with their credit application. Corporate Credit or the local credit office should maintain a copy of the certificate for use by the Corporate Tax Dept.

2.3 Credit Investigation

Upon receipt of a request or application for credit, credit investigations should be started promptly. The extent of a particular credit investigation is dependent upon many factors, such as the potential number and dollar volume of orders, the size of a one-time order, available credit information, etc. Some sources of information are:

§	Dun & Bradstreet (D&B)

§	Credit group reports

§	Bank and trade reference checks (at least three)

§	Customer financial statements, either audited or unaudited

Page: 3 of 13

The Credit department should contact three of the customer’s trade references using the Trade Credit Reference Request (see Exhibit D for attached copy) or a similar credit inquiry tool. When necessary, a D&B or comparable credit bureau report, and bank references should also be obtained and reviewed. Bank references are generally difficult to obtain and may be of limited value, therefore processing of the customer’s credit application should not be unduly delayed in order to seek a bank reference.

3.	Credit investigations involving customers located in foreign countries may also potentially include assessments of the following risk factors before credit is approved:

§	Commercial law variation

§	Stability of the country in which the customer is located

§	Availability of foreign exchange

§	Financial statement variation (i.e., accounting method differences)

2.4 Credit Limit Amounts

New customer accounts are to be established only when properly authorized by the credit function. The responsible credit manager, analyst or other designated individual, in consultation with the management of the business unit, is to establish the criteria for granting credit limits to customers. The criteria should be such that:

1.	Credit will be provided to customers in sufficient amounts to maximize sales, while at the same time controlling exposure to minimize bad debt losses. The attached schedule of Dun & Bradstreet Ratings and Credit Lines may be used as a general reference guide.

2.	Credit limit amounts or exposure levels are to be determined by the Director of Credit, or by a person designated by the business segment financial management, upon completion of the credit investigation.

Credit limit amounts represent a credit limit beyond which a manager of the credit function is to specifically approve each additional order, unless an overriding credit rating (See Exhibit B) or credit risk code in the system has been designated for the customer in question. (See Exhibit A, Table of Credit Line Authority)

4.	Credit files are to be maintained and kept current. Files for new customers should include a credit application, completed trade credit references, and other credit information and/or financial statement data (See Credit History section 2.5)

5.	The following information shall be entered into the customer’s master records: a credit limit, credit risk code (if a systematic risk code tool exists), and a credit review date, if required.

6.	All credit limits and credit risk category codes are subject to review and change if any of the following occur:

a.	Information is received indicating an unfavorable change in credit agency rating, adverse report from suppliers or bank, adverse report from sales rep., etc.

b.	Remittances are not received in accordance with agreed-upon terms of payment.

c.	Customers’ orders exceed their credit limit.

It is then the responsibility of the Credit function to review the affected customers’ credit limits and risk categories.

7.	Accounts with a historically good payment record and no measurable credit risk, may be assigned a credit limit and risk code sufficient to meet their anticipated requirements. This is intended to see that all of the customer’s purchasing requirements will be met.

8.	Restrictions are to be placed on accounts commensurate with specific credit risks. Customers deemed to be poor credit risks may be denied credit altogether and sold only on a secured or cash-in-advance basis.

9.	Credit limit amounts and credit files are to be reassessed by the credit department on an ongoing basis and adjusted as necessary to reflect any changes in credit risk.

10.	Credit limit amounts, or any changes thereto, are to be promptly furnished to Sales & Marketing as requested, for their use in dealing with customers, and as requested, to any departments involved in the checking of credit prior to accepting and/or shipping customer orders.

11.	All changes to credit limit amounts shall be documented in writing or electronically on the accounts receivable or SAP system, and should include:

§	Customer name and address

§	Credit limit amount and any applicable restrictions

§	The person approving the credit

2.5 Credit History Files

As much as possible, the SAP system, or a comparable online system, is to serve as an electronic credit file, reflecting relevant notes and documentation on credit lines and risk codes, and dates and reasons for changes to same. If possible, Dun & Bradstreet or similar credit bureau reports are also to be retained in an electronic filing system, utilizing desktop or server based software, or a similar shared database, that is accessible to credit department personnel.

In addition, hard copy customer credit history files should be maintained. These files may include such customer credit information as:

§	Customer Information Application or credit application form (this may not be available for customers of many years standing)

§	Sales Tax Exemption information, if applicable

§	Trade references

§	Financial statements, if available

§	D&B or other credit bureau hard copy reports and relevant alerts

§	Relevant information from newspapers (electronic or paper) or trade publications

§	Information provided by various credit reporting services

§	Information provided by the customer or Sales

The accounts receivable system and credit history files are to be checked for past credit standings, to determine if the name of a former customer appears on a new customer credit application. Any amounts previously written off as uncollectible debts should be pursued for possible recovery.

2.6 Special Credit Terms

The authorized standard payment terms for Arch Chemicals (domestic) are Net 30. Payment terms for exports made from the U.S. to International customers may vary from 60 to 90 days or more, based on country risk and industry and local practice. Standard payment terms for International subsidiaries and affiliates, and any exceptions to these, are to be determined by the general management and finance/credit management of these businesses.

Any special terms arrangements increase the working capital required to conduct operations, and adversely affect A/R turnover and DSO. Consequently, any request from customers or

Contact: ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Director of Corporate Credit

sales personnel for special credit terms are to be made in writing, and should be approved by the segment/division’s head of Sales, General Manager and/or its Finance Officer. These special terms are then to be presented to the Director, Corporate Credit, or to the appropriate business segment manager responsible for credit management.

Exceptions:

Ordinarily, special payment terms other than Net 30 are justified only to meet a competitive situation and if the sale would otherwise be lost. In order to justify such a competitive credit terms exception, the customer should supply Sales with written proof of such competitive terms, in the form of a P.O. or invoice copy.

Following are some additional examples of specific credit terms exceptions:

§	In support of the shipment of seasonal products and for early buy programs, such as for HTH water chemicals.

§	In exchange for payment by electronic funds transfer (EFT) or ACH.

2.7 Terms for EFT Payments (Electronic Funds Transfer)

EFT terms arrangements for domestic U.S. customers shall be coordinated with and approved by Corporate Treasury and Corporate Credit. If the customer requires extra days as a condition for making EFT payments, Corporate Treasury and Corporate Credit must be consulted.

Any additional dating terms allowed to domestic U.S. customers that pay by EFT should not exceed 4 days, unless approved by Treasury and the Director of Corporate Credit. Such additional terms, if granted, are intended as an incentive to do EFT and/or in compensation for the customer’s perceived loss of mail and check float.

Trade A/R COLLECTION

3.1 Monitoring Accounts Receivable for Past Due Balances

Open customer accounts must be monitored to determine past due balances that may require follow-up, and to provide all necessary information required to enforce collection.

Monitoring open customer accounts may be accomplished during the order entry process and through a regular review of customer Aged Trial Balance reports. In addition, during the cash application process, customer accounts may be reviewed and necessary action taken to clear aged deductions and questionable items. However, all adjustments resulting from such action must be approved in writing or in accordance with established procedures (i.e., credit memo approval process, etc.).

2.	Aged accounts receivable balances and ATB reports are to be reviewed periodically (at least quarterly), to identify unusual open items and customers who are becoming slow-pay accounts, etc.

3.	When departments other than the credit function are responsible for monitoring open customer balances, the system must ensure that all appropriate past due information is provided to the credit function for its use in effecting collection and managing credit risk.

Comments should be made on-line in any relevant system fields where text notes may be recorded (e.g., in SAP’s Credit Master Sheet, or in its Display Customer Line Items or DMC screens). Customer service, credit analysts or other responsible personnel are to document their findings in these notes and/or in other written form (e.g., on copies of ATB reports) to serve as a document of collections efforts and to be supplied to credit personnel, as needed.

3.2 Accounts Receivable Collection Practices

Credit functions, accounts receivable staff and at times Customer Service, may be responsible for working together to collect past due balances, and to review and resolve payment discrepancies. Whatever collections methods are used, (see general guidelines in section

Page 7 of 13

Procedure Number: CAP 82.1

Contact: ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Director of Corporate Credit

Effective: September 2004

3.2.4 below), any additional or detailed collections procedures should be in writing and should be consistently followed. Each function shall have access to ATB reports and customer’s A/R displays on the system, as required to effect collection of accounts receivable.

1.	During the cash application process, deductions (short payments) should be assigned reason codes, if the system provides this capability, in order to facilitate subsequent investigation and resolution.

2.	Appropriate notations of the collections actions taken are to be made in the online system or in another relevant tracking tool, and/or placed in the credit file to document the follow-up.

3.	Detailed collection practices and the system of follow-up on past due accounts may vary depending on the type of business or on the marketing methods of each business unit.

4.	Guidelines and examples of some past due account actions and collection follow-up that should be taken are:

§	Past dues are to be identified by a regular online review of customer account balances, or by the periodic review (e.g., monthly) of customers’ Aged Trial Balance (ATB) reports.

§	A customer contact should be made (by phone, fax or email) once an invoice has gone past due beyond accepted payment terms in excess of an acceptable time period.

§	Generally, this collections contact should be made as early as one day and no later than 30 days after invoice due date. Active collections follow-up may vary by business, however it is encouraged to begin as early as 10 to 15 days after due date.

§	Telephone or email contact should seek to identify reasons for delinquency and to assure prompt payment of both the delinquent item(s) and all other obligations.

§	A commitment should be sought for payment resolution by a certain date, with customers’ promises and payment information (e.g., check number, check date, date mailed, check amount) recorded in the online system or in a manual file or report.

§	As appropriate, action dates for follow-up collection calls should be used and noted in an online system (e.g. SAP’s DMC), in Microsoft Outlook, in an electronic calendar, or in another appropriate reminder, “tickler system,” or work prioritization tool.

§	Statements shall be faxed or mailed to delinquent customers, as appropriate.

§	Reminder letters shall be sent to delinquent customers, as appropriate.

§	Sales representatives and/or customer service may assist in the collections effort.

Each business unit may establish the point beyond which interest may potentially be charged on past due customer balances. Rates to be charged should not be less than those that Arch must pay when obtaining short term financing. Consideration should be given to the ultimate collectibility of interest charges, and the need to monitor that any such charges that are assessed do not become stale receivables.

given to the ultimate collectibility of interest charges, and the need to monitor that any such charges that are assessed do not become stale receivables.

3.3 Use of Collection Agencies

1.	Seriously past due accounts are to be placed in the hands of a professional collection agency or lawyer only after all other collection efforts have been exhausted. Sales shall be notified and a final demand letter shall be sent to the customer before placing a debt.

The approval of the Director of Credit, or of the affiliate/business segment’s credit manager or credit authority, is required when placing an account with an outside collection agency. Subsequently, Credit should consult with Legal to obtain necessary approval prior to commencing a lawsuit for collection, if the suit is for a material amount, and/or it has the potential for a counter claim on breach of contract or product liability.

Following placement for collection, Corporate Credit or the business segment’s credit professional is to closely monitor the collection efforts of the collection agency until either the customer makes a satisfactory arrangement to pay the past due account or the collection agency has determined the account to be uncollectible.

3.4 Accounts Receivable Write-offs

See CAP 83.0 for detailed policy and procedures on Doubtful Accounts and Bad Debts.

1.	Financial Officers or their delegates must approve all write-offs of uncollectible accounts.

2.	Periodically, but at least annually, past due accounts and accounts placed for collections are to be reviewed with the Financial Officer, or with the affiliate/subsidiary finance manager, to assess whether any write-offs are appropriate.

Estimated bad debts shall also be analyzed periodically, in order to determine the adequacy of the Bad Debt Reserve. Corporate Credit, or the responsible credit professional of the affiliate or business segment, should assist in the identification of potentially uncollectible accounts for this reserve analysis.

Contact: ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Director of Corporate Credit

Effective: September 2004

Supercedes: March 2002

Page: 10 of 13

The determination that an account balance is uncollectible shall be made in consultation with Corporate Credit and the financial officers of the business segments. In the case of International subsidiaries and affiliates, this decision shall be made by the credit and finance management of the business. Upon write-off approval, accounts will be transferred to the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.

5.	When collection agencies recommend write-offs of accounts that have been only partially collected, customers should be contacted to confirm amounts paid. This will serve as a check on the accuracy of agency remittances.

Accounts written off as uncollectible may nevertheless be able to pay some percentage of the outstanding balance at a later date. Therefore, credit files on these accounts are to be maintained and periodically followed up by the credit functions, regardless of whether the customer became bankrupt, went out of business, or refused to pay.

3.5 Credits to A/R

Credits may be granted from time to time consistent with the applicable sections of the separate Accounts Receivable Trade (CAP 61.1) and Billing (CAP 81.1) policies.

▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Ratings and Pre-Authorized Credit Limits

The existence of a positive D&B rating indicating a customer’s financial strength and credit capacity, can be used as a guideline for establishing a credit limit, provided that no negative information exists from other credit sources.

The D&B rating must be “in date” or current, and it should be reviewed periodically for any negative revisions.

“Grade 1”	Credit Line	“Grade 2”	Credit Line
D&B Rating	Pre-Authorized Guideline	D&B Rating	Pre-Authorized Guideline

Exhibit VI

Form of Subordinated Note

SUBORDINATED NOTE

______________, 200_

1. Note. FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Arch Chemicals Receivables Corp., a Delaware corporation (“SPV”), hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the order of [ORIGINATOR NAME], a(n) __________ ***[corporation] [limited liability company] [partnership]*** (“Originator”), in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, on or before the date following the Termination Date which is one year and one day after the date on which (a) the Outstanding Balance of all Receivables sold under the “Sale Agreement” referred to below has been reduced to zero and (b) Originator has paid to Buyer all indemnities, adjustments and other amounts which may be owed thereunder in connection with the Purchase thereunder (the “Collection Date”), the aggregate unpaid principal sum outstanding of all “Subordinated Loans” made from time to time by Originator to SPV pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of that certain Receivables Sale Agreement dated as of June 27, 2005 between Originator and certain of its affiliates, as sellers, and SPV, as buyer (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Sale Agreement”). Reference to Section 1.3 of the Sale Agreement is hereby made for a statement of the terms and conditions under which the loans evidenced hereby have been and will be made. All terms which are capitalized and used herein and which are not otherwise specifically defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Sale Agreement.

2. Interest. SPV further promises to pay interest on the outstanding unpaid principal amount hereof from the date hereof until payment in full hereof at a rate equal to the 1-month LIBOR rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the first Business Day of each month (or portion thereof) during the term of this Subordinated Note, computed for actual days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days and changing on the first business day of each month hereafter (“LIBOR”); provided, however, that if SPV shall default in the payment of any principal hereof, SPV promises to pay, on demand, interest at the rate equal to LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum on any such unpaid amounts, from the date such payment is due to the date of actual payment. Interest shall be payable on the first Business Day of each month in arrears; provided, however, that SPV may elect on the date any interest payment is due hereunder to defer such payment and upon such election the amount of interest due but unpaid on such date shall constitute principal under this Subordinated Note. The outstanding principal of any loan made under this Subordinated Note shall be due and payable on the Collection Date and may be repaid or prepaid at any time without premium or penalty.

3. Principal Payments. Originator is authorized and directed by SPV to enter on the grid attached hereto, or, at its option, in its books and records, the date and amount of each loan made by it which is evidenced by this Subordinated Note and the amount of each payment of principal made by SPV, and absent manifest error, such entries shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so entered; provided that neither the failure of Originator to make any such entry or any error therein shall expand, limit or affect the obligations of SPV hereunder.
