Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 10, 2004, Milacron Inc. adopted the Executive Life Insurance Plan (the "Plan"), effective as of January 1, 2004 in which the Company formalized its established practice of providing key employees of the Company and its Affiliates with a life insurance benefit. The life insurance benefit is a part of an overall competitive benefits package designed to attract, retain and motivate highly effective individuals. Named executive officers and certain other key employees may participate in the Plan.

The Plan provides each participant with life insurance coverage equal to one year's base salary, which is in addition to the level of life insurance benefit provided to all of the Company's employees. Each of the Company’s current executive officers who formerly participated in a split dollar insurance arrangement with the Company is entering into a Termination Agreement terminating the split dollar insurance arrangement, which is a condition to the executive’s participation in the Plan. Under the Plan, an executive who terminates a split dollar arrangement will become the sole owner of the policy providing the benefit under the Plan and those participants who did not participate in the Company's split dollar insurance arrangement will receive term insurance while employed with the Company or its affiliates.
