Explanation of Responses:
1. Each share of phantom stock is the economic equivalent of one share of Cabot common stock.
2. Immediately exercisable.
3. Shares of phantom stock are payable in cash following the reporting person's termination of service as a director, and may be transferred into an alternative investment account.
4. For calendar year 2006, Mr. Enriquez-Cabot elected to change the earnings measure used to measure and credit notional earnings to compensation he has elected to defer under the Cabot Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan from phantom stock units to the Moody's Corporate Bond Rate. Under the terms of the Plan, when such a change is made, phantom stock units are converted to cash based on the fair market value of Cabot common stock as of the effective date of the election. The closing price of Cabot's common stock on January 3, 2006 (the effective date of the election) was $37.13. Mr. Enriquez-Cabot did not receive a cash payment; rather, the amount was credited to his deferred account.
