Explanation of Responses: (1) Represents the number of units attributable to the reporting person's participation in the Company Stock Fund option of the UCAR Carbon Savings Plan. (2) Represents obligations whose value is based on the Common Stock. The reporting person disclaims any beneficial ownership of these securities. (3) Of such options, 50,000 vested on each of May 21, 1999, July 14, 1999 and September 29, 1999. (4) Options were granted as part of an annual grant. Of such options, 15,000 vested on September 25, 2001 and 72,000 will vest on September 25, 2003. (5) Of such shares, 10,000 will vest on each of January 1, 2003 and January 1, 2004, provided that the reporting person is still employed by the Company on those dates. (6) As previously disclosed, management purchased these shares with loans from the Company under an employee compensation plan with the objective of achieving stock ownership guidelines for executive officers. The Board of Directors has determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company to terminate the plan and unwind the loans, and offered to accept surrender of these shares in repayment of the loans. All reporting officers currently meet or exceed stock ownership guidelines of the Company and have not otherwise sold Company stock. In the aggregate, the purchase and surrender does not result in a material profit or loss to the Company or any officer. /s/ Karen G.
