PREFACE. This volume of documents contains Ownership Agreements between the Cabinet and each Statutory Authority and Government Company. Although Statutory Authorities and Government Companies are legally separate from the Government, they are all owned by the Government on behalf of the people of the Cayman Islands. This ownership relationship exists regardless of whether ownership is reflected in the form of shares or a formal capital holding. Like any owner, the Government expects the organisations it owns to perform within agreed boundaries. The purpose of the Ownership Agreement is to specify the ownership performance that the Cabinet and the Board of each Statutory Authority or Government Company have agreed the Authority or Company will seek to achieve during the 2009/10 financial year. Ownership performance is the performance that an owner of an organisation expects and can be categorised into five areas: • Nature and Scope of Activities • Strategic Goals and Objectives • Financial Performance • Maintenance of Human and Physical Capability • Risk Management Each of these five dimensions of performance is specified in the Ownership Agreement. In addition, the Ownership Agreement specifies any ownership financial flows between the Authority or Company and the Government namely: • Equity Investments • Capital Withdrawals • Dividend or Profit Distributions • Government Loans • Government Guarantees In addition to its ownership relationship, the Government also has a purchase relationship with some Statutory Authorities and Government Companies. This performance is specified in a separate document: a Purchase Agreement.

PREFACE. At Kingston Works both parties to this Agreement have attempted to build an approach to the operation of the plant that is different from the traditional approach for large industrial organizations. This approach is based on the belief that conscientious employees, properly informed, carrying out their duties in an intelligent manner, are the best assurance of an effective operation. Such an operation, built on internal support by its own people, can best fill the needs of our customers and the shareholders. Thus, both parties to this Agreement have worked together to set up plant procedures which reflect these convictions and which give freedom to employees to discharge their responsibilities without unnecessary restrictions. This approach, and the response of employees to it, made it possible some years ago to eliminate time clocks. Later on, the traditional hourly pay system was discontinued and since that date all employees at Kingston Works have been paid on a salaried basis. More recently, mutual cooperation has resulted in both parties recognizing that employee involvement enhances our vested interest in Kingston Works and provides an environment for continuous improvement. Both parties take pride in the progress that has already been made in developing an improved working climate which benefits both the employee and the company. We intend to continue our efforts that combine opportunity and challenge for the individual while moving toward our objectives of excellence and preferred supplier status. COLLECTIVE AGREEMENT entered into at Kingston, on The 18th of May 2015. BETWEEN NOVELIS INC., Kingston Works, Hereinafter called the "Company", OF THE FIRST PART, -and- UNITED STEEL, PAPER AND FORESTRY, RUBBER, MANUFACTURING, ENERGY, ALLIED INDUSTRIAL AND SERVICE WORKERS INTERNATIONAL UNION, LOCAL UNION 343, Hereinafter called the "Union" OF THE SECOND PART
