Item 4		Ownership
		At December 31, 2011, there were 2,202,495 shares of Common Stock of the Company beneficially owned by VEBA for Retirees of Kaiser Aluminum (“VEBA”) and Gallagher Fiduciary Advisors, LLC (“GFA”), representing approximately 11.4% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on that date. GFA is the independent fiduciary for VEBA. Percentages are based on 19,294,649 shares of Common Stock outstanding at October 24, 2011, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.   Prior to June 1, 2011, Independent Fiduciary Services, Inc. (CIK:0001389378) (“IFS”) was the independent fiduciary for VEBA. Pursuant to the VEBA for Retirees of Kaiser Aluminum Trust Agreement dated as of December 2, 2010 (the “Trust Agreement”) and the Independent Fiduciary, Co-Named Fiduciary and Investment Consultant Engagement Letter effective as of December 2, 2010 (the “Engagement Letter”), IFS, as an independent fiduciary, had discretionary authority with respect to the disposition and voting of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by VEBA. Under the Trust Agreement, VEBA had the right to replace IFS as its independent fiduciary.   On June 1, 2011, GFA acquired substantially all of the assets of IFS. The VEBA consented to the assignment of its contract with IFS to GFA. IFS is being wound down under Delaware law and is no longer a registered investment advisor. Accordingly, GFA is subject to the obligations of IFS under the Trust Agreement and Engagement Letter and, therefore, GFA is the independent fiduciary for VEBA subject to the same conditions and obligations that previously applied to IFS.   GFA is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gallagher Benefit Services, Inc. (“GBS”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. (“AJG”). GBS and AJG may also be deemed to be the beneficial owners of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by GFA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein should be construed in and of itself as an admission by any of GFA, GBS or AJG, as the case may be, as to the beneficial ownership of the shares set forth above.
