Schedule 1– additional variations to MRL Kemerton ASA

No.	Cost item	Cost allocation
Service costs – same as TSA
•	Site employees	Payroll costs.
2.	Corporate services	Payroll costs plus 10%.
3.	Other expenses/liabilities incurred relating to the services (eg out of pocket expenses, travel and accommodation and holding the Kemerton Approvals / performing Kemerton Contracts (until transferred to JV))	At cost. Albemarle will hold approvals and be party to contracts including as agent for the JV (being the Manager or the participants directly), so ALB should be indemnified for all costs of such arrangements etc (other than to the extent it relates to the ALB expansion capacity, consistent with the principles below) - this is different to the TSA where MRL are simply providing employees to carry out work.
Cost sharing - prior to the Kemerton Expansion Capacity being constructed
4.	Rent under Lease	JV to pay 100% of the rent attributable to the area of Trains 1 and 2 and the Kemerton Shared Assets. ALB and JV to each pay 50% of the rent attributable to the area of Trains 3 - 5 (ie the Kemerton Expansion Capacity Area). ALB proposes that the rent for the Kemerton Expansion Capacity Area should be split 50/50, on the basis that the JV will be using the area of the Kemerton Expansion Capacity and has a licence (for no consideration) to use the area under the terms of the Sublease. Further, ALB may not in fact develop the Kemerton Expansion Capacity (so the JV would continue to be able to use the area).
5.	Costs payable under the Easement (eg maintenance costs etc)	JV to pay 100% of costs.
6.	Costs of use of the Kemerton Shared Assets and other shared costs (eg payroll costs etc)	JV to pay 100% of costs.
Costs sharing - during construction of the Kemerton Expansion Capacity

Page 7

No.	Cost item	Cost allocation
7.	Rent under Lease	JV to pay 100% of the rent attributable to the area of Trains 1 and 2. ALB to pay 100% of the rent attributable to the area of Trains 3 - 5 (ie the Kemerton Expansion Capacity Area). Rent attributable to the area of Kemerton Shared Assets will be apportioned between the JV and ALB based on the current installed or under construction processing capacity attributable to each of the JV and ALB (ie if ALB is constructing 2 trains, the costs would be split 50:50, if ALB is constructing 1 train, ALB would bear 1/3 of the costs, and the JV 2/3). It is not possible to allocate costs based on production during the construction period, so it will be necessary to apportion based on processing capacity.
8.	Costs payable under the Easement (maintenance costs etc)	The costs will be apportioned between the JV and ALB based on the current installed or under construction processing capacity attributable to each of the JV and ALB.
9.	Costs of use of the Kemerton Shared Assets and other shared costs (eg payroll costs)	To the extent that any costs are directly attributable to the use by either the JV or ALB, the costs will be attributed based on that use. To the extent that any costs are unable to be directly attributed to the use by either the JV or ALB, the costs will be apportioned between the JV and ALB based on the current installed or under construction processing capacity attributable to each of the JV and ALB.
Costs sharing - after the Kemerton Expansion Capacity being constructed
10.	Rent under Lease	JV to pay 100% of the rent attributable to the area of Trains 1 and 2. ALB to pay 100% of the rent attributable to the area of Trains 3 - 5 (ie the Kemerton Expansion Capacity Area). The rent attributable to the area of the Kemerton Shared Assets will be apportioned between the JV and ALB based on the production in a month attributable to each of the JV and ALB.
11.	Costs payable under the Easement (maintenance costs etc)	The costs will be apportioned between the JV and ALB based on the production in a month attributable to each of the JV and ALB.

Page 7

No.	Cost item	Cost allocation
12.	Costs of use of the Kemerton Shared Assets and other share costs (eg payroll costs etc)	There will be a minimum monthly payment payable by each of the JV and ALB. This is proposed to be a (to be determined) percentage (eg 10%) of the total monthly costs, calculated based on each party's share of the current installed processing capacity (ie ALB costs = Total Monthly Costs x 10% x (ALB Processing Capacity/Total Processing Capacity)). As there will still be costs incurred in relation to trains that are not producing in any month, the minimum payment is designed to ensure a party covers its fair share of the relevant costs (which would not be the case if costs were attributed purely based on production in a month). Other costs (after subtracting the minimum payments), will be calculated as follows: • To the extent that any costs are directly attributable to the use by either the JV or ALB, the costs will be attributed based on that use. •To the extent that any costs are unable to be directly attributed to the use by either the JV or ALB, the costs will be apportioned between the JV and ALB based on the production in a month attributable to each of the JV and ALB.
