Certain statements included within this announcement contain forward-looking
information, including, without limitation, those relating to (a) forecasts,
projections and estimates, (b) statements of management's plans, objectives and
strategies for Hydro, such as planned expansions, investments or other projects,
(c) targeted production volumes and costs, capacities or rates, start-up costs,
cost reductions and profit objectives, (d) various expectations about future
developments in Hydro's markets, particularly prices, supply and demand and
competition, (e) results of operations, (f) margins,
(g) growth rates, (h) risk management, as well as (i) statements preceded by
"expected", "scheduled", "targeted", "planned", "proposed", "intended" or

forward-looking statements are reasonable, these forward-looking statements are
based on a number of assumptions and forecasts that, by their nature, involve
risk and uncertainty. Various factors could cause our actual results to differ
materially from those projected in
a forward-looking statement or affect the extent to which a particular
projection is realized. Factors that could cause these differences include, but
are not limited to: our continued ability to reposition and restructure our
upstream and downstream aluminium business; changes in availability and cost of
energy and raw materials; global supply and demand for aluminium and aluminium
products; world economic growth, including rates of inflation and industrial
production; changes in the relative value of currencies and the value of
commodity contracts; trends in Hydro's key markets and competition; and
legislative, regulatory and political factors. No assurance can be given that
such expectations will prove to have been correct. Hydro disclaims any
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise.
