Ladies and Gentlemen,

We have acted as Luxembourg counsel to Novelis Luxembourg S.A. (the “Company”) in connection with the Company acting as a guarantor (the “Transaction”) for its parent, Novelis Inc. (the “Issuer”), whereby the said Issuer will offer and sell US$1,100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 8.375% senior notes due 2017 (the “2017 Notes”) and US$1,400,000,000 in an aggregate principal amount of 8.75% senior notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”) and, together with the 2017 Notes, (the “Notes”). In relation to the said Transaction, we have been asked to provide this legal opinion to you with regard to the laws of Luxembourg and in respect to matters stated herein.

In relation to the said Transaction, we have been asked to provide this legal opinion to you with regard to the laws of Luxembourg and in respect to matters stated herein.

In connection with this opinion, we have examined the following documents (being executed copies of originals):

     IV. Qualifications

     This legal opinion is subject to the following qualifications:

	a)		In this legal opinion, some Luxembourg legal concepts are expressed in English terms and not in their original French terms. Terms and expressions of law and of legal concepts as used in this legal opinion have the meaning attributed to them under the laws of Luxembourg and this legal opinion should be read and understood accordingly. The concepts concerned may not be identical to the concepts described by the same English terms as they exist under the laws of other jurisdictions. This legal opinion may, therefore, only be relied upon under the express condition that any issue of interpretation or liability arising hereunder will be governed by Luxembourg law and be brought before a Luxembourg Court.
	b)		Any performance of an obligation arising from the Transaction Documents against the Company would be subject to any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and any other similar Luxembourg laws relating to or affecting the enforcement or protection of creditors rights and remedies.
	c)		Translation into French or German language from all or from part of the Transaction Documents may be required by a Luxembourg court in any proceedings where the Transaction Documents might be produced.
	d)		The rights and obligations of the parties under the Transaction Documents may be limited by general principles of criminal law, including but not limited to criminal freezing orders.
	e)		Luxembourg courts as well as a Luxembourg “autorité constituée” may require the prior registration of the Transaction Documents, or any other document if they were to be produced in a Luxembourg court action or presented to a Luxembourg “autorité constituée” as the case may be, in which case one of the two following rates, ie a nominal registration duty of EUR 12 (twelve Euros) or an ad valorem duty of 0.24 (zero point twenty-four) per cent (calculated on the basis of the payment obligation concerned), depending on the nature of the document submitted to registration would become payable.
	f)		An obligation may be invalidated on the grounds of fraud, lack of consent (mistake, duress, misrepresentation), illegal consideration, uncertainty of the object, incapacity and force majeure.
	g)		The Excerpt of the Trade Register and the Certificate of Non-Bankruptcy are not conclusively capable of revealing whether or not:

	•		Winding-up (in the meaning of “dissolution”) has been made or a resolution passed for the dissolution of the Company; or
	•		An order for the “faillite” or a “judicial liquidation” has been made.

	h)		For the purpose of statement of opinion (i) (part III hereof), “validly existing” does not mean a wealthy financial situation.
	i)		Luxembourg courts may at anytime require a party to provide further evidence notwithstanding clauses providing for determination or certification made by a party to be conclusive and binding upon the other parties.
	j)		We express no opinion as regards to the effectiveness of a revocation by the Company of a power of attorney granted by it and expressed to be irrevocable.
	k)		No opinion is expressed on any tax consequences of the execution of the Transaction Documents.
	l)		No opinion is expressed herein on matters relating to directors liability.
	m)		A severability clause may be ineffective if a Luxembourg court considers that the illegal, invalid or unenforceable clause was a substantial or material one.
	n)		There is no central register in Luxembourg which is capable of revealing whether there is any such order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority against the Company and as such we are relaying on representations made to us by the Company.
	o)		For the purpose of statement of opinion (iv) (part III hereof), to the extent that any contrary matter of fact was disclosed by the Addressee under the Final Offering Circular, the General Disclosure Package and the Supplemental Marketing Material (as defined under a Purchase Agreement dated on or about 6 December, 2010) or any Registration Statement or prospectus filed by the Issuer under the Securities Act.
	p)		Luxembourg courts may refuse to enforce any right or obligation of the parties to the Transaction Documents to the extent they are contrary to Luxembourg public order or public policy (“ordre public”).
