Explanation of Responses:
1. The phantom units were awarded under the Alcan, Inc. Total Shareholder Return Performance Plan ("TSR Plan"), prior to the issuer's separation from Alcan, Inc., and the obligations were assumed by the issuer. Each phantom unit is equivalent to one Novelis common share. Phantom units have now vested and will be paid only in cash on October 13, 2006 at a value per unit equal to the closing price of Novelis common shares as determined under the TSR Plan.
2. The price of the phantom units is the average of the daily closing prices of Novelis common shares on the New York Stock Exchange for the last five trading days prior to the vesting date.
