NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and subject to and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE; CLOSING

1.1 Purchase and Sale. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement:

(a) CLI agrees to sell and transfer to Gramercy, free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, claims, charges, options, title defects, security interests or other encumbrances of any nature whatsoever (“Liens”), and Gramercy agrees to acquire from CLI, all of CLI’s right, title and interest in and to the Membership Interests (the “Gramercy Purchase”); and

(b) CBI agrees to sell and transfer to GAH, free and clear of any and all Liens, and GAH agrees to acquire from CBI, all of CBI’s right, title and interest in and to the SAB Equity (the “SAB Equity Purchase” and, together with the Gramercy Purchase, the “Purchase”).

1.2 Intercompany Payments. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement:

(a) at the Closing, NSA shall pay or cause to be paid to Gramercy $5 million of the Gramercy Payable (the “Initial Payment”);

(b) as soon as practicable after the Closing (but no later than 20 days after the Closing Date), Representatives of CAC and Gramercy shall jointly determine the Closing Monthly Cash Payment Amount. In connection with such determination, Gramercy shall, and GAH, GAH II and NAAC shall cause Gramercy to, make available to CAC and its Representatives, and CAC shall make available to Gramercy, all such personnel, work papers and other books and records as the other reasonably believes are necessary to make such determination. CAC and Gramercy will, and will cause their Representatives to, cooperate in good faith to resolve any dispute with respect to such determination. No later than 20 days after the determination of the Closing Monthly Cash Payment Amount, (i) CAC shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Gramercy the amount, if any, by which the Closing Monthly Cash Payment Amount is less than the Target Monthly Cash Call Amount and (ii) Gramercy shall pay CAC or its designee the amount, if any, by which the Closing Monthly Cash Payment Amount is greater than the Target Monthly Cash Call Amount; and

(c) on or prior to December 31, 2009, NSA shall pay or cause to be paid to Gramercy $5 million in payment of the remainder of the Gramercy Payable (the “Second Payment”).

For the avoidance of doubt, the payments set forth in clauses (a) and (c) of this Section 1.2 are a condition precedent to and, when made in conjunction with the other transfers, payments, releases, agreements and covenants made and granted by the Seller Releasors contained in this Agreement, form the basis for (i) the acquittal, release and discharge of all liabilities and obligations of NSA contemplated to be acquitted, released and discharged pursuant and subject to Section 4.4(a) and (ii) the assumption and novation by Gramercy of the rights and obligations of NSA under the Alumina Purchase Agreement pursuant and subject to Section 4.6(c).

(a) As soon as practicable after the Closing (but no later than 20 days after the Closing Date), Representatives of CAC and NAAC shall jointly determine the deliveries made by Gramercy to each of NSA and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and GAH and its Affiliates, on the other hand, of the xxxxx calcined metallurgical grade alumina produced at Gramercy’s alumina refinery located at Gramercy, Louisiana (“Alumina”) during the period commencing on October 1, 2004 and ending on the Closing Date (the “Reference Period”). In connection with such determination, Gramercy shall, and GAH and GAH II shall cause Gramercy to, make available to CAC and its Representatives all such personnel, work papers and other books and records as CAC reasonably believes are necessary to make such determination. CAC and NAAC will, and will cause their Representatives to, cooperate in good faith to resolve any dispute with respect to such determination.

(b) If the amount of Alumina delivered to NSA and its Affiliates during the Reference Period is less than the amount of Alumina delivered to GAH and its Affiliates during the Reference Period as determined pursuant to Section 1.3(a) (such difference, the “Delivery Shortfall Amount”), within 20 days after such determination Gramercy shall, and GAH and GAH II shall cause Gramercy to, at Gramercy’s sole option (which option shall be exercised and delivered in writing to CAC no later than five days after such determination), either (i) deliver to NSA or its designee(s) an amount of Alumina equal to the Delivery Shortfall Amount or (ii) pay or cause to be paid to NSA or its designee(s) an amount equal to (A) the Delivery Shortfall Amount, expressed in metric tons, multiplied by (B) $250. The quality, specifications and manner of delivery of the Alumina, if any, to be delivered as part of the Delivery Shortfall Amount will be consistent with historical practice.

(c) If the amount of Alumina delivered to NSA and its Affiliates during the Reference Period is greater than the amount of Alumina delivered to GAH and its Affiliates during the Reference Period as determined pursuant to Section 1.3(a) (such difference, the “Delivery Excess Amount”), NSA shall, and CLI and SAB shall cause NSA to, pay or cause to be paid to Gramercy within 20 days after such determination an amount equal to (i) the Delivery Excess Amount, expressed in metric tons, multiplied by (ii) $250.

The indemnified party shall deliver to the indemnifying party, promptly after the indemnified party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such copies shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

-16-

(b) If a Third-Party Claim is made against an indemnified party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses and acknowledges without reservation its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party therefor, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the indemnifying party and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Should the indemnifying party so assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for legal expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless the Third-Party Claim involves potential conflicts of interest or substantially different defenses for the indemnified party and the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party assumes such defense, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof with its own counsel (at the indemnified party’s expense, except as indicated in the immediately preceding sentence). The indemnifying party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the indemnified party (i) for any period during which the indemnifying party has not assumed (or does not have the right to assume) the defense of a Third-Party Claim or (ii) as otherwise contemplated by the two immediately preceding sentences. If the indemnifying party chooses to defend any Third-Party Claim, all the parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Whether or not the indemnifying party shall have assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the indemnified party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the indemnifying party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if the indemnifying party has not assumed the defense of such Third-Party Claim). The indemnifying party may pay, settle or compromise a Third-Party Claim with the written consent of the indemnified party, but only so long as such settlement includes, and it shall be reasonable to withhold consent if such settlement does not include, (1) an unconditional release of all indemnified parties from all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim, (2) does not subject any indemnified party to any injunctive relief or other equitable remedy and (3) does not include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(c) If an indemnified party shall desire to assert any claim for indemnification provided for under this Article VI other than a claim in respect of, arising out of or involving a Third-Party Claim, such indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing, and in reasonable detail (taking into account the information then available to such indemnified party), of such claim promptly after becoming aware of the existence of such claim; provided that the failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided for hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. If the indemnifying party does not respond to such notice within 20 Business Days after its receipt, it will have no further right to contest the validity of such claim.

6.5 Tax Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any comparable provision of state, local or foreign tax law), the parties hereto agree to treat (and to cause their respective Affiliates to treat), for United States federal income tax purposes (and applicable state, local or foreign income tax purposes), (i) the Gramercy Purchase as a redemption of CLI’s entire partnership interest in Gramercy in exchange for the portion of the Gramercy Payable released, discharged, cancelled and novated pursuant to Section 4.4 (which shall exclude the portion thereof required to be repaid pursuant to Section 1.2(a) and Section 1.2(c)) and the release, assumption and novation contemplated by Section 4.4 to the extent relating to obligations owed by CLI or any of its Affiliates to Gramercy, and (ii) the SAB Equity Purchase as a purchase by GAH of the SAB Equity from CBI in exchange for the release, assumption and novation contemplated by Section 4.4 to the extent relating to obligations owed by CBI or any of its Affiliates to NAAC or St. Xxx.
