Listing under Alcan's Dividend Reinvestment Plan and Share Purchase Plan

In accordance with the undertaking given on the grant of listing for 4,100,612
Common shares of no par value on June 14th 1989, Stock Exchange Reference: 89/
1544, I am writing to inform you that the position as at June 30, 2002 was as
follows:

60,127.042 shares were allotted during the quarter ending June 30, 2002, and
4,968,055.946 of these shares remain reserved for issue.

If, at any time, shares are to become eligible for listing and will not rank
pari passu with existing listed shares, application will be made through de
Zoete & Bevan Limited for an additional line in the Official List for those
shares. If the number of shares available under the Dividend Reinvestment Plan
and Share Purchase Plan alters by reason of issue by way of capitalization of
reserves etc., I will apply for the further amount then available for issue.

Yours truly,
