Explanatory Note: 

This is the fifth amendment (“Amendment No. 5”) to the statement on Schedule 13D for Glencore AG, Glencore Investment Pty Ltd. 

(“Glencore Investment Pty”), Glencore Investments AG (“Glencore Investments AG”), Glencore International AG (“Glencore International”) and Glencore 

Holding AG (“Glencore Holding”), which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 12, 2001, and amended on May 25, 

2004, November 27, 2007, July 8, 2008 and July 21, 2008, relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”) of Century 

Aluminum Company (the “Company”). 

Unless otherwise indicated herein, each capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the 

original Schedule 13D, as amended through the date hereof (the “Schedule 13D”). 

Item 2. Identity and Background 

Schedule I attached to the Schedule 13D, which contains information with respect to the identity and background of each executive officer and 

director of each Reporting Person in response to paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (f) of Item 2, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety by Schedule I 

attached hereto. All other information in Item 2 of the Schedule 13D remains the same. 

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof: 

In connection with a proposed public offering by the Company of newly−issued shares of Common Stock (the “Public Offering”), Glencore 

AG and the Company have entered into an Agreement to Amend Certain Provisions of Standstill and Governance Agreement (the “SAGA Amendment”), 

dated January 27, 2009. The SAGA Amendment provides for certain amendments to the Standstill and Governance Agreement (the “SAGA”), dated July 7, 

2008, that would allow the Reporting Persons and their affiliates to increase their beneficial ownership percentage of the Company’s Common Stock from 

their current ownership percentage of approximately 30.2%, and to exercise voting with respect to a greater percentage of shares than they are now 

permitted to under the SAGA to the extent required to permit them to vote any shares acquired by them in the proposed Public Offering. 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer 

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 

(a) The Reporting Persons beneficially own 14,820,136 shares of Common Stock, or 30.2% of the Company’s outstanding Common 

Stock. The shares reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons: (i) do not include the 15,578,718 shares of Common Stock issuable upon 

conversion of the 155,787.18 shares of Preferred Stock owned by the Reporting Persons, which are convertible only (a) upon the occurrence of events that 

have not transpired and that are outside of the control of the Reporting Persons, or (b) in circumstances that would not result in an increase in the percentage 

of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, and (ii) include 22,500 shares subject to presently exercisable options and 1,047 

shares of restricted Common Stock that vest in June 2009 or upon the holder’s earlier termination of services as a director of the Company due to death or 

disability, each held directly by Mr. Willy R. Strothotte, who holds such options and shares as nominee for Glencore Investment Pty. The aggregate number 

and percentage of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the persons (other than the Reporting Persons) named in Item 2 is set forth opposite their 

names on Schedule I hereto. The beneficial ownership percentages reported herein are based upon the 49,052,692 shares of Common Stock reported as 

outstanding as of December 31, 2008 in the Company’s prospectus supplement, dated January 27, 2009, to the Registration Statement on Form S−3 filed 

with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2007. 

6

(b) The Reporting Persons share the power to vote or to direct the vote and dispose or to direct the disposition of 14,820,136 shares of 

Common Stock. To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, each person (other than the Reporting Persons and any person holding shares as nominee 

for the Reporting Persons) named in Item 2 has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote and dispose or to direct the disposition of the number of shares of 

Common Stock set forth opposite his name on Schedule I hereto. 

(c) None of the Reporting Persons nor, to their knowledge, any of the persons named in Item 2 have engaged in any transaction in any 

shares of Common Stock during the sixty days immediately preceding the date hereof, except as follows: 

Transaction Party Nature of Transaction Date of Transaction Number of Shares Price per Share 

Glencore Investment Pty Ltd. Acquisition (1) 12/31/2008 1,296 (1) 

(1) Represents Common Stock acquired upon the automatic conversion of 12.96 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock 

(“Preferred Stock”) in accordance with the terms of the Preferred Stock. 

(d) None. 

(e) Not applicable. 

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer 

Item 6 is hereby amended by adding the following to the end thereof: 

In connection with the Company’s proposed Public Offering, Glencore AG and the Company executed the SAGA Amendment. Under the 

SAGA Amendment Glencore AG and the Company agreed that (1) if the Reporting Persons or their affiliates purchase Common Stock in the Public 

Offering, then until April 7, 2009, they may beneficially own, and exercise voting rights with respect to, a number of shares of the Company’s Common 

Stock equal to the greater of (x) 28.5% of the outstanding Common Stock and (y) the quotient of: (a) the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock 

that equals 28.5% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock immediately prior to the Public Offering, and (ii) the number of shares purchased by 

Glencore AG in the Public Offering; divided by (b) the number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Public 

Offering, even if such amount exceeds the 30.2% of Common Stock they currently hold. Following April 7, 2009, Glencore AG’s permitted ownership 

percentage shall be as set forth in the SAGA. The SAGA Amendment will become effective only if the Reporting Persons or their affiliates purchase 

additional shares of common stock in the proposed Public Offering. 

7

Also in connection with the proposed Public Offering, Glencore Investment Pty has agreed to enter into a Lock−Up Agreement (the “Lock−Up 

Agreement”) pursuant to which, without the prior written consent of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, as 

representatives of the underwriters of the Public Offering, it will not, during the period ending 90 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the 

Public Offering: (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any option, right to warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or 

indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, or (2) enter into any swap or 

other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock. The restrictions in 

the Lock−Up Agreement will not apply to certain transfers, including as part of a third party acquisition of the Company. The Lock−Up Agreement will not 

be effective if the proposed Public Offering is not consummated by February 10, 2009. 

The foregoing descriptions are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the SAGA Amendment and the 

Lock−Up Agreement which are attached hereto as Exhibits 2 and 3, and incorporated herein by reference.

a number of shares of Company Common Stock equivalent to the Glencore Shares; and 

WHEREAS, the Independent Directors of the Board of Directors of the Company and the Board of Directors of the Company have approved this 

Agreement;

Dear Sirs and Mesdames: 

LOCK−UP AGREEMENT 

LOCK−UP LETTER 

EXHIBIT 3 

January [__], 2009 

The undersigned understands that Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (“Credit Suisse”) and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (“Morgan 

Stanley”) propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Century Aluminum Company, a Delaware corporation 

(the “Company”), providing for the public offering (the “Public Offering”) by the several underwriters, including Credit Suisse and Morgan Stanley and the 

other underwriters for which they act as representatives (the “Underwriters”), of shares (the “Shares”) of the Common Stock, $.01 par value of the Company 

(the “Common Stock”). 

To induce the Underwriters that may participate in the Public Offering to continue their efforts in connection with the Public Offering, the 

undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of Credit Suisse and Morgan Stanley on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the 

period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the Public Offering (the “Prospectus”), (1) offer, 

pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, 

lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or 

exchangeable for Common Stock, or (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic 

consequences of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Common 

Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (a) the sale of any Shares to the Underwriters pursuant to the 

Underwriting Agreement, (b) transactions relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion 

of the Public Offering, (c) the cashless exercise of an option outstanding as of the date hereof that will expire during the restricted period referred to in the 

foregoing sentence; provided that (i) such transaction does not involve the sale or transfer of any shares of Common Stock other than to the Company and 

(ii) the shares received upon such exercise shall be subject to the terms of the Lock−Up Agreement, (d) sales or other dispositions of shares of Common 

Stock to the Company to discharge tax withholding obligations resulting from the vesting of performance shares during the term of the Lock−Up 

Agreement; provided that (i) the undersigned is listed on Schedule I hereto and (ii) the aggregate number of shares withheld by the Company for all persons 

listed on Schedule I hereto shall not exceed 150,000 shares of Common Stock, (e) transfers of Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock 

as part of the acquisition of the Company by a third party by way of merger, consolidation, stock exchange or tender offer (which may include acquisition of 

less than 100% of the voting stock of the Company), (f) transfers among any of the undersigned and/or its Majority Holders and/or its or their direct and/or 

indirect Subsidiaries; (g) transfers of shares of Common Stock as bona fide gifts, and (h) transfers of shares of Common Stock to a trust where the 

beneficiaries of the trust are drawn solely from a group consisting of the undersigned and immediate family members of the undersigned; provided that in 

the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (f), (g) or (h), (A) each transferee or trustee agrees to enter into a lock−up letter substantially in the form of this 

Lock−Up Agreement and (B) the undersigned shall not be required to, and shall not voluntarily, file a report on Form 4 under Section 16(a) of the Securities 

Exchange Act of 1934 reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock during the restricted period referred to in the foregoing 

sentence. “Immediate family member” of a person means the spouse, lineal descendants, father, mother, brother, sister, father−in−law, mother−in−law, 

brother−in−law and sister−in−law of such person. In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of Credit Suisse and Morgan 

Stanley on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the date of the Prospectus, 

make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or 

exchangeable for Common Stock. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and 

registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s shares of Common Stock except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions. As used in this letter, 

“Majority Holder” and “Subsidiary” are used as defined in the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights Of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock 

of Century Aluminum Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on July 7, 2008.

Notwithstanding any provisions set forth in this Lock−Up Agreement to the contrary, this Lock−Up Agreement shall terminate on February 10, 

2009 if the Company and the Underwriters shall not have executed the Underwriting Agreement by such date. 

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriters are relying upon this Lock−Up Agreement in proceeding toward 

consummation of the Public Offering. The undersigned further understands that this Lock−Up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the 

undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

Whether or not the Public Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Public Offering will 

only be made pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters. If for any 

reason the Underwriting Agreement shall be terminated prior to the Closing Date (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement), the agreement set forth above 

shall likewise be terminated.
