DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
Pursuant to Registration Statement No. 33-43443 on Form S-3
(the "Registration Statement"), Reynolds Metals Company, a
Delaware corporation ("Reynolds"), registered $400,000,000
principal amount of its debt securities.
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 has terminated
all offerings of Reynolds debt securities 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 securities registered under the
Registration Statement which remain unsold as of the date hereof.
