Item 5. Other Events.
On March 31, 1995, the registrant completed the sale of its wholly
owned subsidiary, Reynolds Australian Gold Operations, Ltd. ("RAGOL"), to
Sons of Gwalia Ltd. and Camelot Resources N.L., both of Australia. At the
time of the sale, RAGOL held the registrant's principal remaining gold
mining assets. The sale is not expected to have a material effect on the
registrant's results of operations.
On March 30, 1995, the registrant received a civil investigative
demand from the U.S. Department of Justice relating to the pricing of
aluminum can stock. The registrant will cooperate with the inquiry and is
confident that its conduct has been in compliance with U.S. antitrust laws.
