EXCHANGE OFFER

Last Updated:  September 16, 2015

The Dow Chemical Company Exchange Offer -- Investor Information

On September 2, 2015, The Dow Chemical Company (“TDCC”) commenced an exchange offer related to the split-off of the Dow Chlorine Products Business. TDCC is offering to exchange all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Blue Cube Spinco Inc. (“Splitco common stock”) for shares of TDCC common stock validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, as described in further detail in the Prospectus of Blue Cube Spinco Inc. (“Splitco”), dated September 2, 2015 (the “Prospectus”).

In the transactions, immediately following the consummation of this exchange offer, a special purpose merger subsidiary of Olin Corporation (“Olin”) will be merged with and into Splitco, and Splitco, as the surviving company, will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Olin (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of Splitco common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.87482759 shares of common stock of Olin (“Olin common stock”). Accordingly, shares of Splitco common stock will not be transferred to participants in this exchange offer; such participants will instead receive shares of Olin common stock in the Merger. No trading market currently exists or will ever exist for shares of Splitco common stock.

The value of TDCC common stock and Splitco common stock (by reference to Olin common stock) will be determined by TDCC by reference to the simple arithmetic average of the daily volume-weighted average prices (“VWAP”) on each of the last three trading days of the exchange offer period (not including the expiration date) as it may be voluntarily extended, but not including the last two trading days that are part of any Mandatory Extension (as described in the Prospectus) (“Valuation Dates”), of TDCC common stock and Olin common stock on The New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Based on an expiration date of October 1, 2015, the Valuation Dates are expected to be September 28, September 29, and September 30, 2015.

TDCC will provide on this website the daily VWAP of TDCC common stock and Olin common stock, together with indicative calculated per-share values for shares of TDCC common stock, Splitco common stock, and Olin common stock, the indicative exchange ratio, the upper limit and whether the upper limit is in effect, for each of the trading days that the exchange offer is open.

The information on this website is being provided solely in connection with the exchange offer and should not be used for any other purpose. You should refer to the Prospectus for important information about the exchange offer. A copy of the Prospectus, which includes a “Questions and Answers” section beginning at Page 5, and other related information are available through the links below.

Forward-Looking Statements

Note: The forward looking statements contained in this document involve risks and uncertainties that may affect Dow’s operations, markets, products, services, prices and other factors as discussed in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, economic, competitive, legal, governmental and technological factors. Accordingly, there is no assurance that Dow’s expectations will be realized. The Company assumes no obligation to provide revisions to any forward looking statements should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws. This document also contains statements about Dow’s agreement to separate a substantial portion of its chlor-alkali and downstream derivatives business, distribute the business to Dow shareholders and then merge it with a subsidiary of Olin Corporation (the “Transaction”). Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements with respect to the Transaction, including risks relating to the completion of the transaction on anticipated terms and timing, including obtaining shareholder and regulatory approvals, anticipated tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, future prospects, business and management strategies for the management, expansion and growth of the new combined company’s operations, Olin’s ability to integrate the business successfully and to achieve anticipated synergies, and the risk that disruptions from the Transaction will harm Dow’s or Olin’s business. While the list of factors presented here is considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Dow’s or Olin’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Dow does not assume any obligation to provide revisions to any forward looking statements should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.
