               (a) The Parties hereby agree and acknowledge that Replacement Facility Arranger has made a “substantial contribution” (within the meaning of Section 503(b)(3)(D) of the Bankruptcy Code) in the bankruptcy cases of Tronox by, among other things, (x) engaging in legal, business and other due diligence, negotiation and documentation relating to the DIP to Exit Facility, (y) engaging in substantial syndication efforts with respect to the DIP to Exit Facility, and (z) executing and delivering a definitive DIP to Exit Credit Agreement, all of which enabled the Parties to pursue the Plan as a superior alternative to the sale of all or a substantial portion of Tronox’s assets pursuant to the previously scheduled auction or otherwise.

               (b) As a result of such substantial contribution and demonstrable value provided by Replacement Facility Arranger to the Tronox estates and creditors, and in order to induce Replacement Facility Arranger to execute and deliver the DIP to Exit Credit Agreement by providing Replacement Facility Arranger with economic protection against the risk of Tronox, notwithstanding the terms of this Agreement, pursuing a Competing Transaction (as defined below), the Parties hereby agree that Replacement Facility Arranger shall be entitled, pursuant to Sections 363 and 503(b)(3)(D) of the Bankruptcy Code, to payment of (i) a fee in the amount of $8 million (representing approximately 1.88% of the principal amount of the DIP to Exit Facility) (the “Substantial Contribution/Break-Up Fee”), plus (ii) reimbursement for all of its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the DIP to Exit Facility (including without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of its legal counsel, Latham & Watkins LLP, and any other professionals retained by Replacement Facility Arranger) (collectively, the “Transaction Expenses”), which Substantial Contribution/Break-Up Fee and Transaction Expenses shall be payable upon the closing of a Competing Transaction in the event (i) Replacement Facility Arranger is ready, willing and able to consummate the DIP to Exit Facility in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the DIP to Exit Credit Agreement on or before December 24, 2009, and Tronox fails to consummate the DIP to Exit Facility by such date, and (ii) Tronox instead (x) consummates a debtor-in-possession financing transaction that is not arranged by the Replacement Facility Arranger, (y) extends the maturity date of the Existing DIP Facility or (z) consummates on or before December 31, 2010, or a transaction relating to the sale of all or a substantial portion of its assets (including, without limitation, the sale of its assets and businesses pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code) or the reorganization of Tronox other than pursuant to the Plan (any such transaction other than the transaction contemplated by the Plan, a “Competing Transaction”).

          (c) In furtherance of Tronox’s payment obligations in respect of the Substantial Contribution/Break-Up Fee and Transaction Expenses, the Parties agree that Tronox shall file with the Bankruptcy Court on or before December 20, 2009, and use commercially reasonable efforts to schedule an expedited hearing thereon on or before December 22, 2009, and all Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to support, a motion for the entry of an order, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Replacement Facility Arranger (“Substantial Contribution/Break-Up Fee Approval Order”), authorizing payment in immediately available funds to Replacement Facility Arranger of the Substantial Contribution/Break-Up Fee and the Transaction Expenses in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section. The Substantial Contribution/Break-Up Fee Approval Order may be incorporated into the order of the Bankruptcy Court approving Tronox’s execution, delivery and performance of the Plan Support Agreement. That portion of the non-refundable work fees previously paid to Replacement Facility Arranger in connection with the DIP to Exit Facility that has not been used for reimbursement of Transaction Expenses shall be credited against any Substantial Contribution/Break-Up Fee that is due and payable.

          (d) The provisions of this Section shall be immediately effective upon the execution and delivery of signed counterparts by each Party hereto, and each non-debtor Party shall be bound by the provisions of this Section regardless of whether the Bankruptcy Court enters the Substantial Contribution/Break-Up Fee Approval Order or whether Tronox is bound by the provisions of this Section or any other provisions of this Agreement prior to the entry of the Substantial Contribution/Break-Up Fee Approval Order, provided, however, that nothing in this section is intended to create a payment obligation for any Party other than Tronox.

          (e) This Section is without prejudice to the right of any other Party to assert that it is entitled to a substantial contribution payment under Section 503(b)(3)(D) of the Bankruptcy Code, and if any such request is made by any such Party (other than the Replacement Facility Arranger pursuant to this Section), all Parties other than such requesting Party reserve their rights to oppose any such request.

Attachment 1 to Plan Support Agreement

Plan Term Sheet

Tronox Incorporated
RESTRUCTURING PROPOSAL

This term sheet (“Term Sheet”) is annexed as Attachment 1 to the Plan Support Agreement, dated December 20, 2009 (the “Plan Support Agreement”), among Tronox Incorporated (“Tronox”) and the other parties thereto, and sets forth the principal terms of a proposed restructuring (the “Restructuring”) of Tronox and its affiliate debtor subsidiaries (together with Tronox, the “Debtors”) in their pending chapter 11 bankruptcy cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) in the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”).

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Plan Support Agreement.

Overview of the Restructuring:		As described and defined below, and as set forth in the Plan Support Agreement, the Debtors will file a plan of reorganization with the Bankruptcy Court to implement the Restructuring, which plan of reorganization shall reflect the terms set forth in this Term Sheet and otherwise be in form and substance satisfactory to the Parties and, to the extent the terms and conditions of the Plan are inconsistent with the terms of the Credit Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or adversely affect the interests, liens, rights, remedies, benefits or other protections of any or all of the DIP Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and Lenders under the Credit Documents, in form and substance satisfactory to the DIP Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement (the “DIP Administrative Agent”, and such plan of reorganization, the “Plan”).
		Pursuant to the Plan, the Debtors will emerge from chapter 11 as a reorganized business through the consummation of a transfer, in accordance with sections 363 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, of substantially all the assets of the Debtors and their respective subsidiaries (other than the Legacy Assets, as defined below, but including all cash and cash equivalents in the Debtors not to be expended in accordance with this Term Sheet), free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, including Tort Claims and Environmental Claims (as such terms are defined below), except as otherwise specifically provided herein, to a newly formed Delaware corporation that will initially be a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Tronox (“New Tronox”). Through the Rights Offering (as defined in the Commitment Agreement) and distribution under the Plan to holders of allowed unsecured claims against the Debtors, New Tronox will, following the Effective Date, be owned by the unsecured creditors of the Debtors and the Backstop Parties (as defined below).
		Pursuant to the Plan and the order confirming the Plan, New Tronox shall not be deemed to be a legal successor, alter ego or continuation of, or have merged with, the Debtors, Kerr-McGee Corporation, Anadarko Petroleum Corporation and their respective affiliates, subsidiaries and predecessors, and shall not have any liability whatsoever based on any theory of successor or vicarious liability of any kind or character, or based upon any theory or legal principle under or relating to antitrust, environmental, tort, successor or transferee liability law, except as set forth herein.

Replacement DIP Financing:
Entry into Replacement DIP Facility		Pursuant to the terms of the Senior Secured Super-Priority Debtor-In-Possession and Exit Credit and Guaranty Agreement with Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Credit Agreement”), certain lenders party thereto have agreed, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, to provide replacement debtor-in-possession financing to the Debtors (the “Replacement DIP Facility”). In accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Debtors shall file a motion seeking approval of the Debtors’ entry into the Replacement DIP Facility, the Plan Support Agreement and the Commitment Agreement and seek entry of an interim order (the “Financing Order”), substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto, approving the Debtors’ entry into the Replacement DIP Facility, the Plan Support Agreement and the Commitment Agreement.
Repayment of Existing DIP Facility and Prepetition Facility		Upon the closing of the Replacement DIP Facility, the Debtors shall use the proceeds of the Replacement DIP Facility and cash on hand to promptly pay in full in cash: (i) all DIP Obligations (as defined in the Final DIP Order, dated February 6, 2009 [Dkt No. 151]), except as provided herein, owed to Credit Suisse, as administrative agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as collateral agent, and each lender in connection with that certain debtor-in-possession financing facility dated January 13, 2009 by and among Tronox and Worldwide LLC, as Borrowers, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, Credit Suisse, as Administrative Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Collateral Agent (the “Existing DIP Facility”); and (ii) all Prepetition Debt (as defined in the Final DIP Order), except as provided herein, owed to Credit Suisse, as administrative agent, and each lender under that certain secured credit facility dated November 28, 2006 by and among Tronox and Worldwide, as Borrowers, Lehman Brothers Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, as Joint Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners, ABN Amro, as Syndication Agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Citicorp USA, Inc., as co-documentation agents, and Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., as Administrative Agent (the “Prepetition Facility”). Such payments shall be without prejudice to the civil action captioned Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Tronox Incorporated et al., on behalf of Estates of Tronox Incorporated et al. v. Credit Suisse et al. (Case No. 09-01388) (the “Lender Litigation”) and without prejudice to the Creditors’ Committee’s right to seek disgorgement of such payment.1 DIP Obligations and Prepetition Debt, as defined in the Final DIP Order, include the principal amount of the loans outstanding under the facilities, unpaid fees and expenses (including advisors’ fees) incurred by the agent or any lender, and all accrued but unpaid interest as calculated under the facilities.
		Notwithstanding the repayment of the Existing DIP Facility and the Prepetition

		Facility, until the Effective Date: (a) indemnities under the Existing DIP Facility and the Prepetition Facility shall continue in full force and effect and any such claims shall constitute superpriority administrative expenses junior to the superpriority administrative expenses granted in respect of the Replacement DIP Facility; and (b) any cash used to cash collateralize any DIP Letter of Credit or the Existing Letter of Credit (as defined in the Final DIP Order) shall be deposited in a separate collateral account (which account or accounts shall be subject to a perfected, unavoidable first priority lien senior to all other liens and not subject to any other liens including the liens securing the Replacement DIP Facility, provided, that the liens securing the Replacement DIP Facility shall extend to the Debtors’ rights with respect to such cash collateralization arrangement and the payoff letters relating to the repayment of the Existing DIP Facility and Prepetition Facility shall provide that as and when any DIP Letter of Credit or Existing Letter of Credit (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement) terminates or expires, the administrative agent or collateral agent under the Existing DIP Facility and Prepetition Facility shall promptly return to the Debtors that portion of the cash collateral equal to 105% of the undrawn amount, if any, of such DIP Letter of Credit or Existing Letter of Credit) and shall not be available to be used by the Debtors, any Chapter 7 trustee, any estate representative or any other successor or assign of the Debtors or their estates so long as any such DIP Letter of Credit or Existing Letter of Credit is outstanding.
		Tronox and its subsidiaries shall not enter into any agreement with respect to debtor-in-possession financing for the Debtors (other than the Replacement DIP Financing) without the approval of the Backstop Parties.
Termination of Existing Sale Agreement and Cancellation of Auction		The Parties (other than Tronox) require, as a condition of their willingness to support the Restructuring, that the Debtors not pursue further the sale of substantially all of their operating assets. Accordingly, upon execution of the Plan Support Agreement and at the specific request of the Parties (other than Tronox) thereto, the Debtors shall not conduct the Auction (as that term is defined in the Order (A) Approving Bidding Procedures and Overbid Protections in Connection with the Sale of Substantially All of Tronox’s Assets; (B) Approving the Form and Manner of Notice; (C) Scheduling an Auction and a Sale Hearing; and (D) Approving Procedures for Determining Cure Amounts, dated September 23, 2009) on December 21, 2009.

None of the parties to the Plan Support Agreement or the Commitment Agreement, their affiliates, or their or their affiliates’ officers, directors, agents, partners, shareholders, members, advisors or other representatives shall incur any liability, directly or indirectly, to any person, including Huntsman Pigments LLC, Huntsman Australia R&D Company Pty Ltd, Huntsman Corporation or any of their affiliates, as a result of the negotiation or execution of this Term Sheet, the Plan Support Agreement, the Commitment Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or the consummation of such transactions.

The timing and allocation of payment to the holders of non-governmental CERCLA Claims, to the Future Tort Claimants, to the holders of Asbestos Claims, and to the holders of Non-Asbestos Toxic Exposure Claims shall be pursuant to the terms of a Tort Claims Trust Distribution Agreement(s) to be prepared for the administration of all funds in the Tort Claims Trust. All Tort Claims shall be channeled to the Tort Claims Trust. New Tronox shall not be required to pay any fee or expense for the operation or administration of any trust or other arrangement established with respect to the determination, satisfaction, or resolution of any issues related to the Tort Claims (which fees and expenses shall be covered by the payments made to the Tort Claims Trust).

		The Plan and Confirmation Order will specifically provide that the reorganized business and Assets are transferred to New Tronox pursuant to sections 363, 1123 and any other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, free and clear of any successor liability claims with respect to any claims or liabilities of any of the Debtors, except as specifically retained. A “Future Tort Claimant” is an entity that establishes that it holds a Tort Claim that did not arise prior to the Effective Date or was not discharged under the Plan. The Debtors shall use commercially reasonably efforts to obtain an insurance policy for New Tronox against claims of Future Tort Claimants satisfactory to the Parties and the DIP Administrative Agent.
Governmental Environmental Claims		All civil claims against, and other civil responsibilities, obligations or liabilities of, the Debtors relating to or arising under any environmental law, including, without limitation, restoration and remediation of environmental issues asserted by any Governmental Environmental Entity (collectively, the “Environmental Claims”), will be treated as set forth below in the section entitled “Additional Information about the Environmental Settlements” through the Custodial Trusts, the Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements and the Environmental Settlement Agreements or, to the extent not so treated, shall be discharged under the Plan to the maximum extent provided under sections 363, 1123 or other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, and New Tronox shall not be subject to any Environmental Claims to the maximum extent provided under sections 363, 1123 or other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Term Sheet, nothing in the Plan or Confirmation Order shall release, nullify, or preclude any liability of New Tronox as the owner or operator of a property of New Tronox with respect to any properties owned or operated after the Effective Date (other than with respect to Henderson, NV as set forth in the section entitled “Henderson, Nevada Plant”), and the Confirmation Order shall explicitly so provide.
		The Debtors will transfer to the Custodial Trusts and the Anadarko Litigation Trust, in the aggregate, (i) all rights to prosecute and recover the proceeds from the pending litigation with Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, Kerr-McGee Corporation and their respective past or present parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, directors, officers or representatives (other than New Tronox and its subsidiaries, controlled affiliates, directors, officers or representatives), including all such claims that have been, could have been or could be asserted in the civil action Tronox Worldwide LLC & Tronox LLC v. Anadarko Petroleum Corporation et al. (Case No. 09-01198) (the “Anadarko Litigation”), (ii) $115 million in cash (the “Funded Environmental Amount”), (iii) certain Letters of Credit and surety bonds issued pursuant to the Prepetition Facility or their cash equivalent, at the beneficiary’s election (the “Environmental L/Cs”), as set forth on Exhibit F hereto; and (iv) to the extent applicable, available insurance policies and other rights to reimbursement or contribution for response actions (whether contractual or otherwise) held by the Debtors as of the date hereof. The Debtors and New Tronox shall use their reasonable best efforts to secure the consent of third parties, if necessary, to the transfer of any such insurance policies or rights to reimbursement or contribution.

Pension Claims		All pension obligations of the Debtors prior to the Effective Date shall be assumed by New Tronox, including the Tronox Incorporated Retirement Plan.
Unsecured Claims		On the Effective Date, the holders of allowed unsecured claims against the Debtors (which do not include Environmental Claims or Tort Claims, but which shall include 50% of all allowed non-governmental CERCLA Claims) will be distributed the shares of New Tronox Common Stock held by Tronox (representing in the aggregate 30% of the shares of New Tronox Common Stock to be outstanding on the Effective Date, subject to dilution on account of any management incentive stock or stock option plan). The New Tronox Common Stock shall be distributed to such unsecured creditors on a pro rata basis based on their respective allowed claims with respect to the Debtors.
		A “convenience class” consisting of allowed claims below $25,000 shall be created, which shall entitle holders of such allowed claims to elect to receive payment in cash on the Effective Date on account of and in full satisfaction of their claims in an amount equal to a percentage of their allowed claims acceptable to the Backstop Parties and the Creditors’ Committee, to be funded by the Backstop Parties through the purchase of the shares of New Tronox Common Stock to which the electing holders belonging to the convenience class would otherwise be entitled, in lieu of receiving a distribution of New Tronox Common Stock.
		For the avoidance of doubt, unsecured claims with respect to the Debtors filed by the United States or any other Governmental Environmental Entity, other than allowed claims under, or which relate to, any environmental law, shall be treated as unsecured claims subject to the treatment set forth in this paragraph. In consideration thereof, all unsecured claims against the Debtors shall be discharged and New Tronox and its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates shall have no responsibility, obligation or liability with respect thereto.
Equity Interests in Tronox		No recovery.2
Ongoing Remediation:		Until the Effective Date, the Debtors shall continue performing ongoing environmental monitoring and response work with respect to the Owned Sites and the Other Sites consistent with current post-petition practice (it being understood that the Debtors remain responsible for any obligations associated with any emergencies or extraordinary events occurring after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Date).
Settlement and Releases:		Except with respect to Environmental Claims, which shall be treated as set forth herein, all distributions to be made pursuant to the Restructuring will be in full satisfaction of, and represent a settlement of, all disputes and claims, including but not limited to satisfaction of all lender intercreditor agreements and interests of and between the parties receiving such distributions, including, without limitation, any litigation claims, whether known or unknown, arising between or among such parties. Releases provided to officers and directors shall not include

		any individual contractual obligations they may owe to the Debtors.
		The Plan will contain customary releases, indemnifications, and exculpations for, among others, all current and former officers, directors, employees, advisors, attorneys, professionals, accountants, investment bankers, consultants, agents, and other representatives (including their respective officers, directors, employees, members, and professionals) of the Debtors, the Creditors’ Committee and its members, the members of the Committee (as defined in the Commitment Agreement) and any other Backstop Party, the agents, arrangers and lenders under the Existing DIP Facility, the agents, arrangers and lenders under the Prepetition Facility, the agents and lenders under the Credit Agreement and their respective advisors, attorneys, accountants and other representatives from any claims and causes of action arising on or prior to the Effective Date, except for criminal liability, willful misconduct and bad faith, and ultra vires acts asserted by any governmental agency, or as otherwise set forth in the Plan.
		Nothing in the Plan, the Custodial Trust Agreements, or the Environmental Agreements shall in any way release any claim against, or liability of, Kerr-McGee Corporation, Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, the defendants under the Lender Litigation, or their officers, directors, employees, advisors, attorneys, professionals, accountants, investment bankers, consultants, agents, and other representatives (including their respective officers, directors, employees, members, and professionals), whether such claims or liabilities be direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, including, but not limited to, the claims asserted in the Anadarko Litigation. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing shall in any way release any individuals who were former directors or officers of the Debtors or their subsidiaries and also were or currently are directors or officers of Kerr-McGee Corporation and/or Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, unless such individuals were directors or officers of the Debtors or their subsidiaries as of April 1, 2006. All releases, indemnifications and exculpations for certain parties shall be conditioned upon cooperation with the Litigation Trustee (as defined below).
		Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, the Custodial Trust Agreements, or the Environmental Settlement Agreements, no party or claimant is releasing any claim or liability related to, underlying, or that is the subject of the Anadarko Litigation and such parties and claimants expressly agree that their sole basis of recovery against the Debtors or New Tronox with respect to these claims or liabilities shall be limited to the recoveries set forth in the Plan, Custodial Trust Agreements, and/or Environmental Settlement Agreements.

Additional Information about the Environmental Settlements
Anadarko Litigation Trust		On the Effective Date, the Debtors will establish a trust (the “Anadarko Litigation Trust”) to hold its rights to the Anadarko Litigation. The United States and the Debtors, in consultation with certain representatives of holders of Tort Claims and certain other Governmental Environmental Entities, shall jointly appoint a trustee to administer the Anadarko Litigation Trust, with the United States having the right to approve any such trustee (the “Litigation Trustee”). The Anadarko Litigation Trust will be funded on the Effective Date by a portion (which, for the avoidance of doubt, can be $0) of the aggregate $115 million of cash representing the Funded Environmental Amount, in an amount to be determined by the United States. The agreement governing the Anadarko Litigation Trust shall provide that New Tronox shall have no responsibility, obligation or liability with respect to the Anadarko Litigation, other than to retain or transfer to the Litigation Trustee all books, records and documents relevant to the Anadarko Litigation and to cooperate fully with the Litigation Trustee.
		Fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the administration of the Anadarko Litigation Trust and the prosecution of the Anadarko Litigation after the Effective Date, including, without limitation, fees and expenses incurred by professionals retained by the Litigation Trustee, shall be borne by the Anadarko Litigation Trust and New Tronox shall have no responsibility, obligation or liability with respect thereto. Professional fees and expenses may be paid in accordance with the terms of a special fee arrangement with the Anadarko Litigation Trust, which the United States shall have the sole right to approve in consultation with certain other Governmental Environmental Entities and certain representatives of holders of Tort Claims, which shall in no event be required to fund the Anadarko Litigation Trust. Without limiting the foregoing, the United States and certain representatives of the holders of Tort Claims shall discuss in good faith certain non-economic aspects of the Anadarko Litigation Trust, including governance.
		The Litigation Trustee shall (a) pursue the Anadarko Litigation and (b) distribute any recovery as a result thereof (the “Litigation Proceeds”) as follows: (i) 88% to the Governmental Environmental Entities in accordance with the Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements and Environmental Settlement Agreements, and (ii) 12% to the holders of Tort Claims, by delivery to the Tort Claims Trust. The United States shall have the right to approve or reject any proposed settlement of the Anadarko Litigation, after consultation with certain other Governmental Environmental Entities and certain representatives of holders of Tort Claims. Representatives of the United States, certain other Governmental Environmental Entities, and certain representatives of the holders of Tort Claims will have certain agreed rights concerning the pursuit of the Anadarko Litigation. In addition, the United States, separate from its participation in the Anadarko Litigation Trust, shall continue to enjoy the rights to participate in the Anadarko Litigation provided to it under the Order Approving Revised Stipulation and Order with Respect to Federal Debt Collection Procedures Act, signed August 20, 2009.

		In addition, the United States shall negotiate with certain representatives of the holders of Tort Claims in good faith to find additional value from the Anadarko Litigation, a meaningful portion of which will inure to the benefit of holders of Tort Claims.
Environmental Custodial Trusts		On the Effective Date, the Debtors will establish one or more custodial trusts (the “Custodial Trusts”) to transfer the Owned Sites to the Custodial Trusts, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances other than any liability to governmental entities as provided in the applicable custodial trust agreements (collectively, the “Custodial Trust Agreements”). The Custodial Trusts shall conduct response action and restoration or fund response action and restoration of or related to the Owned Sites. Any property placed into a Custodial Trust may be sold or transferred with the approval of the United States and the State in which the property is located, and the proceeds shall be retained by the trust to be used as provided in the applicable Custodial Trust Agreement (a) for costs of administration of the applicable Custodial Trust, (b) to conduct any remaining response action and restoration relating to such property, or (c) to reimburse any Entity performing such response action or restoration. Thereafter any remaining proceeds shall be used as provided below.
		The United States and the applicable Governmental Environmental Entities shall enter into environmental custodial trust settlement agreements for the Owned Sites (the “Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements”). The Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements shall be submitted for public notice and comment as required under federal environmental law and, where applicable, state environmental law of the state in which the applicable property is located. The agreements will determine how the Custodial Trusts will be operated by agreed-upon trustees and the role of the United States and the relevant State in approving funding of response action and restoration for the duration of the trusts. The Debtors and New Tronox shall have no responsibility or involvement with respect to the Custodial Trusts once they are established and funded in accordance with the provisions herein. Custodial Trust funding shall be held in trust in segregated trust accounts for each site and in an administrative account, all as provided for in the Custodial Trust Agreements. The relevant Governmental Environmental Entity and the Debtors will file any necessary pleading with the applicable district court seeking to modify the applicable Consent Decree or related document, if any, to conform to any applicable Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements and remove such Debtor as a party to the Consent Decree after the Effective Date.
		Each Custodial Trust Settlement Agreement and each Environmental Settlement Agreement shall (i) have covenants not to sue or assert (or, for certain states, to the extent allowable under applicable state and federal law, releases of) any civil claims or civil causes of action against the Debtors, New Tronox and any successors in interest with respect to the Owned Sites (including pursuant to sections 106 and 107 of CERCLA) and (ii) provide that the Debtors, New Tronox and any successors in interest shall have protection from contribution actions or claims with respect to the Owned Sites (including pursuant to section 113 of CERCLA). Each such covenant and provision shall be similar to those in the recent Asarco LLC, et al. (Case No. 05-21207) bankruptcy as set forth in the related Amended Settlement Agreement regarding Miscellaneous Federal and State Environmental Sites and the Amended Consent Decree (the “Miscellaneous Settlement”) and Settlement Agreement Establishing a Custodial

		Trust for Certain Owned Sites in Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, Utah and Washington (“Multi-State Custodial Trust Agreement”), including in the sections entitled “Covenants Not To Sue” and “Contribution Protection”, but excluding any provisions in paragraph 30 of the Miscellaneous Settlement or paragraph 12(i) of the Multi-State Custodial Trust Agreement.
		The initial funding of the Custodial Trusts shall be the remaining portion of the aggregate $115 million of cash representing the Funded Environmental Amount, after the Anadarko Litigation Fund has been funded, if at all, to be funded on the Effective Date. Additional funding shall be as set forth above in the section entitled “Treatment of Claims against the Debtors: Environmental Claims”. Funding shall be allocated among the site accounts as provided in the Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements.
		Upon completion of response action and restoration and reimbursement of any costs therefore required for a site, any funds held for that site by a Custodial Trust shall be transferred (a) first, in accordance with instructions provided by the United States and the appropriate State, to any other Custodial Trust in that State with remaining response action and restoration to be performed related to the sites and a need for additional trust funding; (b) second, in accordance with instructions provided by the United States after consultation with the States, to other open and operating Custodial Trusts in other States with remaining response action and restoration to be performed related to the sites and a need for additional trust funding; and (c) third, to the Superfund established under CERCLA.
		Certain Governmental Environmental Entities shall also enter into environmental settlement agreements (the “Environmental Settlement Agreements”) with respect to the Other Sites. (For the avoidance of doubt, the Environmental Settlement Agreements and the Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements may be one form of agreement, which shall be satisfactory under this Term Sheet.) The Environmental Settlement Agreements shall provide for allowed claims and consideration, including funding from the Anadarko Litigation Proceeds and contribution sources, on terms to be determined by the Debtors and certain Governmental Environmental Entities, as set forth herein. The Environmental Settlement Agreements shall also provide for the retention by the United States of any Department of Energy reimbursement, or other funds subject to set-off, to be used at the direction of the United States. For the avoidance of doubt, the Governmental Environmental Entities shall not be entitled to additional recovery under the Plan as a result of the Environmental Settlement Agreements other than the distributions and treatment set forth above in the section entitled “Treatment of Claims against the Debtors: Environmental Claims”. The Environmental Settlement Agreements shall be submitted for public notice and comment as required under federal environmental law and, where applicable, state environmental law of the state in which the applicable property is located. The relevant Governmental Environmental Entity and Debtor will file any necessary pleading with the applicable district court seeking to modify the applicable Consent Decree or related documents, if any, to conform to the applicable Environmental Settlement Agreements and remove such Debtor as a party to the Consent Decree after the Effective Date.

Scope of United States Obligations under Plan Support Agreement and Term Sheet		Except as set forth in the last sentence of this paragraph, and notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Term Sheet or the Plan Support Agreement, (i) neither the Plan Support Agreement nor this Term Sheet shall impose any binding or enforceable obligations on the United States, and the terms of this Term Sheet shall not become binding and enforceable upon the United States unless and until the appropriate officials of the United States, on behalf of the United States, have executed and delivered the definitive Environmental Settlement Documents, after public notice and opportunity for public comment in accordance with applicable law and after the Bankruptcy Court has approved the definitive Environmental Settlement Documents, (ii) this Term Sheet may not be used or relied on by any party for any purpose other than as set forth in the last sentence of this paragraph, and (iii) this Term Sheet is not a permit, covenant not to sue, or release, and may not be used as a defense to any claim, action or proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the United States agrees to use its reasonable efforts (1) to negotiate the forms of definitive Custodial Trust Agreements, Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements and Environmental Trust Settlement Agreements and any other related documents and agreements, including all exhibits, schedules, annexes and other attachments thereto (collectively, the “Environmental Settlement Documents”) consistent with the terms of this Term Sheet, on or before February 28, 2010, (2) to initiate and diligently pursue both the public notice and comment proceedings and procedures in accordance with applicable law and any other action required by applicable law in order for the United States to be authorized to execute and deliver the definitive Environmental Settlement Documents, (3) to complete the public notice and comment proceedings and procedures by April 30, 2010, and (4) promptly after completion of the public notice and comment proceedings and procedures, to support, if appropriate after considering all public comments, the Debtors’ filing of a motion to obtain Bankruptcy Court approval of, and the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of an order approving, the definitive Environmental Settlement Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing “reasonable efforts” clause applies solely to the timing of the Environmental Settlement Agreement and Custodial Trust Agreement process, and does not bind the United States to actually enter into such agreements unless and until (1) officials with authority have approved the Environmental Settlement Agreements and Custodial Trust Agreements; (2) the required public notice and comment period with respect to such agreements has closed; (3) the United States and other relevant Governmental Environmental Entities have decided to proceed with such agreements, as modified, if at all, in response to comments received; (4) the other signatories to the Plan Support Agreement (and the DIP Administrative Agent) have consented to any such modifications having a material impact upon them; and (5) the Bankruptcy Court has approved such agreements, as so modified.

Governance:
Board of Directors		The board of directors of New Tronox will initially consist of a number of individuals to be determined by the Backstop Parties and the Creditor’s Committee. The initial board members shall be appointed by the Backstop Parties, and shall include the chief executive officer of New Tronox, and at least one of such directors (who shall be an “independent director” within the meaning of the rules of any stock exchange on which the shares of New Tronox Common Stock are listed (or if not so listed, would so qualify under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange)) shall be selected in consultation with the Creditors’ Committee and with the consent of the Creditors’ Committee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Other		Other governance arrangements to be determined, depending, in part, on whether New Tronox will be a public or private company on the Effective Date.3
Conditions Precedent:		The consummation of the Restructuring pursuant to the Plan will be subject to customary and appropriate conditions precedent, including but not limited to the following.
Listing of Common Stock		The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause, on, or as soon as possible after, the Effective Date, the shares of New Tronox Common Stock to be listed on the NYSE or The NASDAQ Stock Market.
Documentation		All documentation prepared in connection with the Restructuring, including without limitation, the Plan, the Definitive Restructuring Documentation, and any documents, motions, pleadings, orders or the like prepared or filed in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Parties.
Government Consent		Any consent of the Governmental Environmental Entities necessary to effect the Environmental Settlement Agreements and Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements, including consent to modify or amend any Consent Decree as may be required thereunder, and any applicable public notice and comment proceedings and procedures or other regulatory approval requirements shall have been obtained, and the Environmental Settlement Agreements and Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements shall have been approved by the Bankruptcy Court on or prior to June 30, 2010.
		The Debtors shall not object to, or seek to estimate, any Environmental Claims asserted by Governmental Environmental Entities that are party to any Environmental Settlement Agreements or Custodial Trust Settlement Agreements without the consent of the United States and the relevant claimant.
Other Consents		To the extent any consent or waiver is required to be obtained to effect the Restructuring (including the transfer of the Assets to New Tronox), such consent or waiver shall have been obtained or expired, such that New Tronox shall able, on the Effective Date, to take ownership of the Assets free and clear of all encumbrances.

Replacement DIP Facility		The Debtors shall have obtained Bankruptcy Court authorization to enter into the Replacement DIP Facility and shall not have obtained additional debtor-in-possession financing prior to the Effective Date.
Henderson, Nevada Plant		The Debtors and the applicable Custodial Trust shall have entered into sale/leaseback and access agreements relating to the Henderson, Nevada facility, each on terms satisfactory to the Backstop Parties and the Creditors’ Committee and the relevant government agencies, which terms shall include significantly below market lease payments (but at least sufficient to pay for associated administrative expenses and property taxes), and shall specify that New Tronox is not responsible for costs of any environmental remedial action or restoration associated with the presence or releases of hazardous substances from or at any portion of the Henderson facility prior to the Effective Date and all areas affected by natural migration of such substances therefrom, except to the extent exacerbated by any act or omission of New Tronox after the Effective Date. New Tronox shall exercise due care at the Henderson facility with respect to existing contamination and shall comply with all applicable local, State and federal laws and regulations. Nothing in the previous sentence shall require New Tronox to clean up existing contamination in or under the ground that has not been exacerbated or aggravated by New Tronox or its successors, assignees, contractors, subcontractors, representatives, lessees or sublessees after the Effective Date. New Tronox recognizes that the implementation of response actions at the Henderson facility may interfere with New Tronox’s use of the property, and may require closure or delay of its activities or a part thereof. New Tronox agrees to cooperate fully with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and the Nevada Department of Environmental Protection in the implementation of response actions at the Henderson facility and further agrees not to interfere with such response actions. The EPA, consistent with its responsibilities under applicable law, will use reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with New Tronox’s operations by such entry and response at the Henderson facility.
		The lease shall contain customary provisions relating to indemnity by a tenant with respect to the operation of the tenant at the leased property following the Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, New Tronox shall retain any liability as an operator of the Henderson facility, and shall be responsible for related response action, if any, to the extent such liability or responsibility relates to releases of hazardous substances from any portion of the Henderson facility due to any act or omission of New Tronox after the Effective Date.
Available Funds		On the Effective Date, the aggregate amount of (i) available cash or cash equivalents for New Tronox (not including any restricted cash or cash equivalents) and (ii) undrawn amounts under the Exit Facility available to be drawn by New Tronox on such date, shall exceed $58,240,000, or such other lower amount as shall be agreed to by the Backstop Parties.
Non-governmental CERCLA Claims		On the Effective Date, the aggregate amount of allowed non-governmental CERCLA Claims shall not exceed $200 million; and there shall be no material unresolved non-governmental CERCLA Claims, which, individually or in the aggregate, after having been resolved, reasonably could cause the final aggregate amount of allowed non-governmental CERCLA Claims to exceed $200 million.

Dilution		The New Tronox Common Stock issued in connection with the transactions to take place on or prior to the Effective Date, as set forth in this Term Sheet, will be subject to dilution by New Tronox Common Stock issued after the Effective Date, including upon issuance of New Tronox Common Stock pursuant to the management incentive plan set forth below.

		In addition, following the Effective Date the board of directors of New Tronox shall review the employment arrangements with the management of New Tronox and enter into appropriate arrangements with those persons who will serve as the management of New Tronox after the Effective Date.
Charter Documents		All charter documents of New Tronox will be satisfactory to the Backstop Parties and the Creditors’ Committee.

Expenses		Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Term Sheet are consummated, the Debtors shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and out-of pocket expenses of the legal counsel and financial advisors to the Backstop Parties related to the Restructuring, provided, however, that the completion fee of $2 million contemplated by the Broadpoint Capital, Inc. engagement letter, which, notwithstanding anything set forth in such letter, shall only be payable upon consummation of the Restructuring.
Tax Issues		To be determined.
