Explanation of Responses:
1. The award of common shares noted is subject to a three-year performance period ending June 30, 2009.
2. Price is calculated with reference to the closing price of IPSCO Inc stock on the TSX on July 21, 2006 and converted to US dollars using the Bank of Canada's exchange rate on such date of 1.1384.
3. The noted restricted shares have been converted to common shares as a result of the completion of the performance period attached to such shares.
4. The common shares noted refer to the conversion of the restricted shares in Footnote 2 to common shares of IPSCO Inc.
5. A Performance Unit or "PU" is a bookkeeping entry equal to one common share of IPSCO Inc. It is payable on the noted date only upon the satisfaction of the express performance objectives over the express performance period. PU's may be paid in the form of common shares, cash or a combination of both. There is no express expiration date for performance units.
6. Price is calculated with reference to the closing of IPSCO Inc. stock on the TSX and converted to US dollars using the Bank of Canada's exchange rate on such date.
7. This transaction reflects the change of the title of the restricted shares previously reported from "Restricted Shares" to "Common Shares" for filing clarification purposes. No change has been made to the restrictions attached to such shares.
