Explanation of Responses:

1. Award of restricted stock (i.e. shares of Common Stock, restrictions on which lapse upon the stock becoming non-forfeitable) granted October 21, 2004 on a formula basis under Cytec's stockholder-approved 1993 Stock Award and Incentive Plan ("the Plan"). The award becomes non-forfeitable as to twenty percent of the Common Stock covered by the award on each of the first five anniversaries of the grant of the award, or immediately upon a Change-in-Control (as defined in the Plan.) If the Director's service on the Board terminates prior to any part of the award under the Plan becoming non-forfeitable (except in certain circumstances as set forth in the Plan), any forfeitable portion of the award reverts back to Cytec

2. Formula grant made October 21, 2004 under the Plan of options to purchase Common Stock, exercisable in 1,500-share increments on each of the first three anniversaries of the granting of the option (or earlier in the event of a Change-in-Control as defined in the Plan). Options generally expire on the earlier of (i) ten years from the granting of such option or (ii)one year (five years if the director has served for five years or more) from the date of the Director's cessation of membership on Cytec's Board of Directors.
