<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman'; TEXT-ALIGN: left">On February 21, 2017, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee (the &#8220;Committee&#8221;) of the Board of Directors of Tronox Limited (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) created an Integration Incentive Award program in connection with the Company&#8217;s previously announced definitive agreement to acquire Cristal&#8217;s TiO<sub style="vertical-align: bottom; line-height: 1; font-size: smaller">2</sub> business (the &#8220;Transaction&#8221;).&#160; It is expected that this program could ultimately cover in excess of one hundred employees who will be designated in advance with specific integration tasks.&#160; These employees will be eligible for bonus payments after their synergy or other specified integration goal is achieved.&#160; It is expected that no individual payments of this type will be made until not earlier than one year after closing of the Transaction and not later than shortly after two years after the Transaction closing, and will be mostly in the form of cash payments determined as a percentage of their base salaries.&#160; As part of this program, the Committee approved certain grants pursuant to the Company&#8217;s Management Equity Incentive Plan in order to incentivize six executive employees to achieve synergies following the Transaction, and to further align the compensation of these employees to the value created for shareholders in the Transaction.&#160; Pursuant to the awards program, the Company&#8217;s below named executive officers were granted performance-based restricted share units (&#8220;Award RSUs&#8221;) using a share price of $18.675 per share, which was the average of the opening and closing trading prices for the Company&#8217;s Class A ordinary shares on February 21, 2017.&#160; The Award RSUs are subject to vesting terms based upon the achievement of at least 80% of the publicly announced synergies from the Transaction by the date that is two years following the closing of the Transaction (the &#8220;Vesting Date&#8221;).&#160; The Award RSUs will vest as follows: upon the achievement of at least 80% of the publicly announced synergies from the Transaction by the Vesting Date, 50% of the Award RSUs granted will vest, with pro rata additional vesting up to 100% vesting upon the achievement of 100% of the publicly announced synergies from the Transaction by the Vesting Date.&#160; If the Transaction does not close by July 1, 2018, then the Award RSUs granted will be forfeited.</div>

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On February 21, 2017, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors of Tronox Limited (the "Company") created an Integration Incentive Award program in connection with the Company's previously announced definitive agreement to acquire Cristal's TiO
2
business (the "Transaction").  It is expected that this program could ultimately cover in excess of one hundred employees who will be designated in advance with specific integration tasks.  These employees will be eligible for bonus payments after their synergy or other specified integration goal is achieved.  It is expected that no individual payments of this type will be made until not earlier than one year after closing of the Transaction and not later than shortly after two years after the Transaction closing, and will be mostly in the form of cash payments determined as a percentage of their base salaries.  As part of this program, the Committee approved certain grants pursuant to the Company's Management Equity Incentive Plan in order to incentivize six executive employees to achieve synergies following the Transaction, and to further align the compensation of these employees to the value created for shareholders in the Transaction.  Pursuant to the awards program, the Company's below named executive officers were granted performance-based restricted share units ("Award RSUs") using a share price of $18.675 per share, which was the average of the opening and closing trading prices for the Company's Class A ordinary shares on February 21, 2017.  The Award RSUs are subject to vesting terms based upon the achievement of at least 80% of the publicly announced synergies from the Transaction by the date that is two years following the closing of the Transaction (the "Vesting Date").  The Award RSUs will vest as follows: upon the achievement of at least 80% of the publicly announced synergies from the Transaction by the Vesting Date, 50% of the Award RSUs granted will vest, with pro rata additional vesting up to 100% vesting upon the achievement of 100% of the publicly announced synergies from the Transaction by the Vesting Date.  If the Transaction does not close by July 1, 2018, then the Award RSUs granted will be forfeited.
The following table shows a summary of the terms of the Award RSUs granted to the Company's named executive officers pursuant to the Plan:
