                  DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

     Pursuant to Registration Statement No. 33-13822 on Form S-8
(the "Registration Statement"), Reynolds Metals Company, a
Delaware corporation ("Reynolds"), registered 1,500,000 shares
(subject to adjustment for stock splits, recapitalizations and
other anti-dilution adjustments) of its Common Stock, without par
value ("Reynolds Common Stock"), to be offered under the Reynolds
Metals Company 1987 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan.

     On August 18, 1999, Alcoa Inc. ("Alcoa"), Reynolds and RLM
Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Alcoa ("Merger
Sub"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement") providing for a merger pursuant to which Merger Sub
would merge with and into Reynolds, with Reynolds surviving as a
wholly owned subsidiary of Alcoa (the "Merger").  The Merger
became effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Merger with
the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on May 3, 2000
(the "Effective Time").  Under the terms of the Merger Agreement,
each outstanding share of Reynolds Common Stock was converted at
the Effective Time into the right to receive 1.06 shares of Alcoa
common stock.  As a result of the Merger, Reynolds terminated at
the Effective Time all offerings of Reynolds Common Stock under
its existing registration statements, including the Registration
Statement.

     In accordance with an undertaking made by Reynolds in the
Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a
post-effective amendment, any of the securities which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering, Reynolds hereby
removes from registration all shares of Reynolds Common Stock
registered under the Registration Statement which remained unsold
as of the Effective Time.
