-10-

(c) Cash Management and Intercompany Accounts After the Distribution Date. Ethyl and Tredegar shall establish and maintain a separate cash management system with respect to the Tredegar Businesses effective immediately after the Distribution Date.

The proceeds of checks payable to, and received by, Tredegar or a Tredegar Subsidiary, but for the benefit of an Ethyl Business, shall be remitted promptly to Ethyl.

Section 2.03 Transfers Not Effected Prior to the Distribution; Transfers Deemed Effective as of the Distribution Date. To the extent that any transfers and assumptions

-12-

contemplated by this Article II and Article III shall not have been consummated prior to the Distribution Date, the parties shall cooperate to effect such transfers as promptly following the Distribution Date as shall be practicable, it nonetheless being agreed and understood by the parties that neither party shall be liable in any manner to the other party for any failure of any of the transfers contemplated by this Article II or Article III to be consummated prior to the Distribution Date. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the transfer of any assets or the assumption of any Liabilities which by their terms or operation of law cannot be transferred or assumed; provided, however, that Ethyl and Tredegar and their respective subsidiaries shall cooperate to seek to obtain all necessary consents and approvals for the transfer of all assets and Liabilities contemplated to be transferred pursuant to this Article II and Article III. In the event that any such transfer of assets or Liabilities has not been consummated, effective as of and after the Distribution Date, the party retaining such asset or Liability shall thereafter hold such asset for the party entitled thereto (at the expense of the party entitled thereto) and retain such Liability for the account of the party by whom such Liability is to be assumed, and take such other action as may be reasonably requested by the party to whom such

-13-

asset is to be transferred, or by whom such Liability is to be assumed, as the case may be, in order to place such party insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as would have existed had such asset or Liability been transferred as of the Distribution Date. As and when any such asset or Liability becomes transferable, such transfer immediately shall be effected. The parties agree that, as of the Distribution Date, each party hereto shall be deemed to have assumed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements all of the Liabilities, and all duties, obligations and responsibilities incident thereto, which such party is required to assume pursuant to the terms hereof and thereof.

Section 2.04 No Representations or Warranties; Consents. Each party hereto understands and agrees that neither party hereto is, in this Agreement or in any other agreement or document contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise, representing or warranting in any way (i) as to the value or freedom from encumbrance of, or any other matter concerning, any assets of such party or (ii) as to the legal sufficiency to convey title to any asset or the execution, delivery and filing of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, including, without limitation, any Conveyancing or Assumption Instruments, it being

-14-

agreed and understood that all such assets are being transferred “as is, where is” and that the party to which such assets are to be transferred hereunder shall bear the economic and legal risk that any conveyances of such assets shall prove to be insufficient or that such party or any of its subsidiaries’ title to any such assets shall be other than good and marketable and free from encumbrances. Similarly, each party hereto understands and agrees that neither party hereto is, in this Agreement or in any other agreement or document contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise, representing or warranting in any way that the obtaining of any consents or approvals, the execution and delivery of any amendatory agreements and the making of any filings or applications contemplated by this Agreement will satisfy the provisions of any or all applicable laws or judgments, it being agreed and understood that the party to which any assets are transferred shall bear the economic and legal risk that any necessary consents or approvals are not obtained or that any requirements of law or judgments are not complied with. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties shall use reasonable efforts to obtain all consents and approvals to enter into all amendatory agreements and to make all filings and applications that may be required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without

-15-

limitation, all applicable regulatory filings or consents under federal or state environmental laws and the consents, approvals, agreements, filings and applications specified in Schedule 2.04.

Section 2.05 Conveyancing and Assumption Instruments. In connection with the transfers of assets other than capital stock and the assumptions of Liabilities contemplated by this Agreement, the parties shall execute or cause to be executed by the appropriate entities the Conveyancing and Assumption Instruments in such forms as the parties shall agree. The transfer of capital stock shall be effected by means of delivery of stock certificates and executed stock powers and notation on the stock record books of the corporation or other legal entity involved and, to the extent required by applicable law, by notation on public registries.

Section 4.02 Ethyl Board Action; Conditions Precedent to the Distribution. The Ethyl Board shall, in its discretion, establish the Record Date and the Distribution Date and any appropriate procedures in connection with the Distribution. In no event shall the Distribution occur (i) if at the Distribution Date the ruling from the IRS as heretofore received by Ethyl and dated May 4, 1989 (the “Ruling”) shall not be in full force and effect, or shall have been modified or amended in any respect adversely affecting the tax consequences set forth in the Ruling or (ii) prior to such time as the following conditions shall have been satisfied:

-18-

(i) the transactions contemplated by Sections 2.01 and 2.02 shall have been consummated in all material respects;

(ii) the Tredegar Common Stock shall have been approved for listing on the NYSE subject to official notice of issuance.

(iii) the Tredegar Board, comprised as contemplated by Section 6.01, shall have been elected by Ethyl, as sole shareholder of Tredegar, and the Tredegar Charter and Tredegar By-Laws shall have been adopted and shall be in effect; and

(iv) the Form 10 shall have been declared effective by the Commission or become effective under the Exchange Act;

provided, however, that the satisfaction of such conditions shall not create any obligation on the part of Ethyl or any other party hereto to effect the Distribution or in any way limit Ethyl’s power of termination set forth in Section 9.08 or alter the consequences of any such termination from those specified in such Section.

Section 4.03 The Distribution. On the Distribution Date, subject to the conditions and rights of termination set forth in this Agreement, Ethyl shall deliver to the Distribution Agent a

-19-

certificate representing all of the then outstanding shares of Tredegar Common Stock held by Ethyl and shall instruct the Distribution Agent to distribute, as soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, certificates representing such Tredegar Common Stock, and cash in lieu of fractional shares calculated in accordance with Section 4.04, to holders of record of Ethyl Common Stock on the Record Date. Tredegar agrees to provide all certificates that the Distribution Agent shall require in order to effect the Distribution.

Section 4.04 Fractional Shares. The Distribution Agent shall be directed to determine the number of whole shares and fractional shares of Tredegar Common Stock allocable to each holder of record of Ethyl Common Stock as of the close of business on the Record Date who is not a participant in Ethyl’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan. The Distribution Agent shall also determine the number of whole shares and fractional shares of Tredegar Common Stock allocable to each participant in Ethyl’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan based upon the aggregate number of shares of Ethyl Common Stock credited to such participant’s account under such plan and any additional shares of Ethyl Common Stock held in such participant’s name as of the close of business on the Record Date. Upon the Distribution Agent’s

-20-

determination of the aggregate number of such fractional shares, Tredegar shall purchase from the Distribution Agent, acting on behalf of the holders thereof, all of such fractional shares at a per share price equal to the average closing price of one share of Tredegar Common Stock on the NYSE on the tenth through the twentieth trading days after the initiation of regular way settlement trading of Tredegar Common Stock on the NYSE.

Section 6.02 Resignations. Tredegar shall cause all Tredegar Employees to resign, effective as of the Distribution Date, from all boards of directors or similar governing bodies of Ethyl or any Ethyl Subsidiary on which they serve, and from all positions as officers of Ethyl or any Ethyl Subsidiary in which they serve.

and statement made, or to be made, to any taxing authority in connection with any ruling obtained, or to be obtained, by Ethyl and/or Ethyl and Tredegar acting together, from any such taxing authority with respect to any transaction contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) take no action that would jeopardize the tax-free status of the Distribution for federal income tax purposes. In the event that during the three year period following the Distribution Date Tredegar desires to restructure its business in a manner, or take any other action, that might cause a material change in any such representation or statement, it must obtain the advance written consent of Ethyl. Such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld if Ethyl either receives a supplemental private letter ruling from the IRS or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to Ethyl that such action does not affect adversely the tax-free status of the Distribution. At Tredegar’s request and expense, Ethyl shall seek such a ruling as expeditiously as practicable with the full participation of Tredegar, provided that in Ethyl’s opinion (i) there is a reasonable basis for the ruling requested and (ii) seeking such a ruling would not interfere with, or delay, any other action Ethyl has pending or currently under consideration.

Section 6.05 Use of Ethyl Name. Any existing printed material, signs or graphics displaying any affiliation or connection of Tredegar or any Tredegar Subsidiary with Ethyl or an Ethyl Subsidiary may be used by such Tredegar Subsidiary only so long as necessary but in no event after the date more than six months after the Distribution Date. On and after the Distribution Date, Tredegar and the Tredegar Subsidiaries shall not otherwise represent to third parties that any of them is affiliated with Ethyl or an Ethyl Subsidiary.

-25-
