Independent Auditors' Report
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Kaiser Aluminum Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Kaiser Aluminum
Corporation (Debtor-In-Possession) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and
the related consolidated statements of income (loss), stockholders' equity
(deficit) and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the year then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit. The consolidated financial statements of Kaiser
Aluminum Corporation as of December 31, 2001 and for the years ended December
31, 2001 and 2000 were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations. In
their report, dated April 10, 2002, those auditors expressed an unqualified
opinion on those consolidated financial statements with an explanatory paragraph
as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Kaiser Aluminum Corporation and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and the results of their operations and
their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary, Kaiser
Aluminum & Chemical Corporation ("KACC") and certain of KACC's subsidiaries have
filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. The
accompanying consolidated financial statements do not purport to reflect or
provide for the consequences of the bankruptcy proceedings. In particular, such
financial statements do not purport to show (a) as to assets, their realizable
value on a liquidation basis or their availability to satisfy liabilities; (b)
as to pre-petition liabilities, the amounts that may be allowed for claims or
contingencies, or the status and priority thereof; (c) as to stockholder
accounts, the effect of any changes that may be made in the capitalization of
the Company; or (d) as to operations, the effect of any changes that may be made
in its business.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Notes 1 and
2, the action of filing for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal
Bankruptcy Code, losses from operations and stockholders' capital deficiency
raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans concerning these matters are also discussed in Note 1. The
financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

COPY OF REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kaiser Aluminum Corporation dismissed Arthur Andersen on April 30, 2002 and
subsequently engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP as its independent auditors. The
predecessor auditors' report appearing below is a copy of Arthur Andersen's
previously issued opinion dated April 10, 2002. Since Kaiser Aluminum
Corporation is unable to obtain a manually signed audit report, a copy of Arthur
Andersen's most recent signed and dated report has been included to satisfy
filing requirements, as permitted under Rule 2-02(e) of Regulation S-X.

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Kaiser Aluminum Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kaiser Aluminum
Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001
and 2000, and the related statements of consolidated income (loss),
stockholders' equity and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Kaiser Aluminum Corporation and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going
concern which contemplate among other things, realization of assets and payment
of liabilities in the normal course of business. As discussed in Note 1 to the
consolidated financial statements, on February 12, 2002, the Company, its wholly
owned subsidiary, Kaiser Aluminum & Chemical Corporation ("KACC") and certain of
KACC's subsidiaries filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United
States Bankruptcy Code. This action raises substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do
not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities or the
effects on existing stockholders' equity that may result from any plans,
arrangements or other actions arising from the aforementioned proceedings, or
the possible inability of the Company to continue in existence.

KACC and 15 of KACC's subsidiaries (the "Original Debtors") filed in the first
quarter of 2002 and nine additional KACC subsidiaries (the "Additional Debtors")
filed in the first quarter of 2003. The Original Debtors and Additional Debtors
are collectively referred to herein as the "Debtors" and the Chapter 11
proceedings of these entities are collectively referred to herein as the
"Cases." For purposes of this Report, the term "Filing Date" shall mean, with
respect to any particular Debtor, the date on which such Debtor filed its Case.
None of KACC's non-U.S. joint ventures are included in the Cases. The Cases are
being jointly administered. The Debtors are managing their businesses in the
ordinary course as debtors-in-possession subject to the control and
administration of the Court.

Original Debtors. During the first quarter of 2002, the Original Debtors filed
separate voluntary petitions for reorganization. The wholly owned subsidiaries
of KACC included in such filings were: Kaiser Bellwood Corporation, Kaiser
Aluminium International, Inc., Kaiser Aluminum Technical Services, Inc., Kaiser
Alumina Australia Corporation (and its wholly owned subsidiary, Kaiser Finance
Corporation) and ten other entities with limited balances or activities.

The necessity for filing the Cases by the Original Debtors was attributable to
the liquidity and cash flow problems of the Company and its subsidiaries arising
in late 2001 and early 2002. The Company was facing significant near-term debt
maturities at a time of unusually weak aluminum industry business conditions,
depressed aluminum prices and a broad economic slowdown that was further
exacerbated by the events of September 11, 2001. In addition, the Company had
become increasingly burdened by asbestos litigation (see Note 12) and growing
legacy obligations for retiree medical and pension costs (see Note 10). The
confluence of these factors created the prospect of continuing operating losses
and negative cash flow, resulting in lower credit ratings and an inability to
access the capital markets.

The outstanding principal of, and accrued interest on, all debt of the Original
Debtors became immediately due and payable upon commencement of the Cases.
However, the vast majority of the claims in existence at the Filing Date
(including claims for principal and accrued interest and substantially all legal
proceedings) are stayed (deferred) during the pendency of the Cases. In
connection with the filing of the Original Debtors' Cases, the Court, upon
motion by the Original Debtors, authorized the Original Debtors to pay or
otherwise honor certain unsecured pre-Filing Date claims, including employee
wages and benefits and customer claims in the ordinary course of business,
subject to certain limitations. In July 2002, the Court also issued a final
order authorizing the Company to fund the cash requirements of its foreign joint
ventures in the ordinary course of business and to continue using the Company's
existing cash management systems. The Original Debtors also have the right to
assume or reject executory contracts existing prior to the Filing Date, subject
to Court approval and certain other limitations. In this context, "assumption"
means that the Original Debtors agree to perform their obligations and cure
certain existing defaults under an executory contract and "rejection" means that
the Original Debtors are relieved from their obligations to perform further
under an executory contract and are subject only to a claim for damages for the
breach thereof. Any claim for damages resulting from the rejection of an
executory contract is treated as a general unsecured claim in the Cases.

Generally, pre-Filing Date claims, including certain contingent or unliquidated
claims, against the Original Debtors will fall into two categories: secured and
unsecured. Under the Code, a creditor's claim is treated as secured only to the
extent of the value of the collateral securing such claim, with the balance of
such claim being treated as unsecured. Unsecured and partially secured claims do
not accrue interest after the Filing Date. A fully secured claim, however, does
accrue interest after the Filing Date until the amount due and owing to the
secured creditor, including interest accrued after the Filing Date, is equal to
the value of the collateral securing such claim. The amount and validity of
pre-Filing Date contingent or unliquidated claims, although presently unknown,
ultimately may be established by the Court or by agreement of the parties. As a
result of the Cases, additional pre-Filing Date claims and liabilities may be
asserted, some of which may be significant.

In October 2002, the Court set January 31, 2003 as the last date by which
holders of pre-Filing Date claims against the Original Debtors (other than
asbestos-related personal injury claims and certain hearing loss claims) could
file their claims. Any holder of a claim that was required to file a claim by
such date and did not do so may be barred from asserting such claim against any
of the Original Debtors and, accordingly, may not be able to participate in any
distribution in any of the Cases on account of such claim. Because the Company
has not had sufficient time to analyze the proofs of claim to determine their
validity, no provision has been included in the accompanying financial
statements for claims that have been filed. The January 31, 2003 bar date does
not apply to asbestos-related personal injury claims, for which the Original
Debtors reserve the right to establish a separate bar date at a later time. A
separate bar date of June 30, 2003 has been set for certain hearing loss claims.

Additional Debtors. On January 14, 2003, the Additional Debtors filed separate
voluntary petitions for reorganization. The wholly owned subsidiaries included
in the Cases were: Kaiser Bauxite Company, Kaiser Jamaica Corporation, Alpart
Jamaica Inc., Kaiser Aluminum & Chemical of Canada Limited and five other
entities with limited balances or activities.

The Cases filed by the Additional Debtors were commenced, among other reasons,
to protect the assets held by these Debtors against possible statutory liens
that may arise and be enforced by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation
("PBGC") primarily as a result of the Company's failure to meet a $17.0
accelerated funding requirement to its salaried employee retirement plan in
January 2003 (see Note 10). From an operating perspective, the filing of the
Cases by the additional Debtors had no impact on the Company's day-to-day
operations.

In connection with the Additional Debtors' filings, the Court authorized the
Additional Debtors to continue to make payments in the normal course of business
(including payments of pre-Filing Date amounts), including payments of wages and
benefits, payments for items such as materials, supplies and freight and
payments of taxes. The Court also approved the continuation of the Company's
existing cash management systems and routine intercompany transactions
involving, among other transactions, the transfer of materials and supplies
among affiliates.

In March 2003, the Court set May 15, 2003, as the last date by which holders of
pre-Filing Date claims against the Additional Debtors (other than
asbestos-related personal injury claims and certain hearing loss claims) must
file their claims.

All Debtors. The Debtors' objective is to achieve the highest possible
recoveries for all creditors and stockholders, consistent with the Debtors'
abilities to pay, and to continue the operations of their businesses. However,
there can be no assurance that the Debtors will be able to attain these
objectives or achieve a successful reorganization. While valuation of the
Debtors' assets and pre-Filing Date claims at this stage of the Cases is subject
to inherent uncertainties, the Debtors currently believe that it is likely that
their liabilities will be found in the Cases to exceed the fair value of their
assets. Therefore, the Debtors currently believe that it is likely that
pre-Filing Date claims will be paid at less than 100% of their face value and
the equity of the Company's stockholders will be diluted or cancelled. Because
of such possibility, the value of the Common Stock is speculative and any
investment in the Common Stock would pose a high degree of risk.

Under the Code, the rights of and ultimate payments to pre-Filing Date creditors
and stockholders may be substantially altered. At this time, it is not possible
to predict the outcome of the Cases, in general, or the effect of the Cases on
the businesses of the Debtors.

Two creditors' committees, one representing the unsecured creditors and the
other representing the asbestos claimants, have been appointed as official
committees in the Cases and, in accordance with the provisions of the Code, will
have the right to be heard on all matters that come before the Court. The
Debtors expect that the appointed committees, together with the legal
representative for potential future asbestos claimants that has been appointed
in the Cases, will play important roles in the Cases and the negotiation of the
terms of any plan or plans of reorganization. The Debtors are required to bear
certain costs and expenses for the committees and the legal representative for
potential future asbestos claimants, including those of their counsel and other
advisors.

The Debtors anticipate that substantially all liabilities of the Debtors as of
the date of the Filing will be resolved under one or more plans of
reorganization to be proposed and voted on in the Cases in accordance with the
provisions of the Code. Although the Debtors intend to file and seek
confirmation of such a plan or plans, there can be no assurance as to when the
Debtors will file such a plan or plans, or that such plan or plans will be
confirmed by the Court and consummated.

As provided by the Code, the Original Debtors had the exclusive right to propose
a plan of reorganization for 120 days following the initial Filing Date. The
Court has subsequently approved extensions of the exclusivity period for all
Debtors through April 30, 2003. Additional extensions are likely to be sought.
However, no assurance can be given that such future extension requests will be
granted by the Court. If the Debtors fail to file a plan of reorganization
during the exclusivity period, or if such plan is not accepted by the requisite
numbers of creditors and equity holders entitled to vote on the plan, other
parties in interest in the Cases may be permitted to propose their own plan(s)
of reorganization for the Debtors.

Financial Statement Presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with Statement of Position 90-7
("SOP 90-7"), Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the
Bankruptcy Code, and on a going concern basis, which contemplates the
realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course
of business. However, as a result of the Cases, such realization of assets and
liquidation of liabilities are subject to a significant number of uncertainties.

Financial Information. Condensed consolidating financial statements of the
Debtors and non-Debtors are set forth below:

Classification of Liabilities as "Liabilities Not Subject to Compromise" Versus
"Liabilities Subject to Compromise." Liabilities not subject to compromise
include: (1) liabilities incurred after the Filing Date of the Cases; (2)
pre-Filing Date liabilities that the Debtors expect to pay in full, including
priority tax and employee claims and certain environmental liabilities, even
though certain of these amounts may not be paid until a plan of reorganization
is approved; and (3) pre-Filing Date liabilities that have been approved for
payment by the Court and that the Debtors expect to pay (in advance of a plan of
reorganization) over the next twelve month period in the ordinary course of
business, including certain employee related items (salaries, vacation and
medical benefits), claims subject to a currently existing collective bargaining
agreement, and postretirement medical and other costs associated with retirees.

Liabilities subject to compromise refer to all other pre-Filing Date liabilities
of the Debtors. The amounts of the various categories of liabilities that are
subject to compromise are set forth below. These amounts represent the Company's
estimates of known or probable pre-Filing Date claims that are likely to be
resolved in connection with the Cases. Such claims remain subject to future
adjustments. There can be no assurance that the liabilities of the Debtors will
not be found in the Cases to exceed the fair value of their assets. This could
result in claims being paid at less than 100% of their face value and the equity
of the Company's stockholders being diluted or cancelled.

The amounts subject to compromise at December 31, 2002 consisted of the
following items:

Items, absent the Cases, that would have been considered current:
   Accounts payable                                                                    $      47.6
   Accrued interest                                                                           44.0
   Accrued salaries, wages and related expenses(1)                                            59.0

(1)  Accrued salaries, wages and related expenses represents estimated minimum
     pension contributions for the year ended December 31, 2003. However, the
     Company does not currently expect to make any pension contributions in
     respect of its domestic pension plans. See Note 10.
(2)  Long-term liabilities include pension liabilities of $362.7 (Note 10),
     environmental liabilities of $21.7 (Note 12) and asbestos liabilities of
     $480.1 (Note 12).

The classification of liabilities "not subject to compromise" versus liabilities
"subject to compromise" is based on currently available information and
analysis. As the Cases proceed and additional information and analysis is
completed or, as the Court rules on relevant matters, the classification of
amounts between these two categories may change. The amount of any such changes
could be significant. Additionally, as the Company evaluates the proofs of claim
filed in the Cases, adjustments will be made for those claims that the Company
believes will probably be allowed by the Court. The amount of such claims could
be significant.

Reorganization Items. Reorganization items under the Cases are expense or income
items that are incurred or realized by the Company because it is in
reorganization. These items include, but are not limited to, professional fees
and similar types of expenses incurred directly related to the Cases, loss
accruals or gains or losses resulting from activities of the reorganization
process, and interest earned on cash accumulated by the Debtors because they are
not paying their pre-Filing Date liabilities. For the year ended December 31,
2002, reorganization items were as follows:

Professional fees                                                      $        28.8
Accelerated amortization of certain deferred financing costs                     4.5
Interest income                                                                 (1.8)
Other                                                                            1.8
                                                                       --------------
                                                                       $        33.3
                                                                       ==============

As required by SOP 90-7, in the first quarter of 2002, the Company recorded the
Debtors' pre-Filing Date debt that is subject to compromise at the allowed
amount. Accordingly, the Company accelerated the amortization of debt-related
premium, discount and costs attributable to this debt and recorded a net expense
of approximately $4.5 in Reorganization items during the first quarter of 2002.

Trust Fund. During the first quarter of 2002, KACC paid $5.8 into a trust fund
in respect of potential liability obligations of directors and officers.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Going Concern. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been
prepared on a "going concern" basis which contemplates the realization of assets
and the liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business; however,
as a result of the commencement of the Cases, such realization of assets and
liquidation of liabilities are subject to a significant number of uncertainties.
Specifically, the consolidated financial statements do not present: (a) the
realizable value of assets on a liquidation basis or the availability of such
assets to satisfy liabilities, (b) the amount which will ultimately be paid to
settle liabilities and contingencies which may be allowed in the Cases, or (c)
the effect of any changes which may be made in connection with the Debtors'
capitalizations or operations as a result of a plan of reorganization. Because
of the ongoing nature of the Cases, the discussions and consolidated financial
statements contained herein are subject to material uncertainties.

Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the
statements of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. The Company is a
subsidiary of MAXXAM Inc. ("MAXXAM") and conducts its operations through its
wholly owned subsidiary, KACC. KACC operates in all principal aspects of the
aluminum industry-the mining of bauxite (the major aluminum bearing ore), the
refining of bauxite into alumina (the intermediate material), the production of
primary aluminum, and the manufacture of fabricated and semi-fabricated aluminum
products. Kaiser's production levels of alumina and primary aluminum allows it
to be a major seller of alumina and primary aluminum to domestic and
international third parties (see Note 16).

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are
published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Uncertainties, with respect to such estimates and assumptions,
are inherent in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial
statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ
from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the
reported amounts of the Company's consolidated financial position and results of
operation.

Investments in 50%-or-less-owned entities are accounted for primarily by the
equity method. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated.

Recognition of Sales. Sales are recognized when title, ownership and risk of
loss pass to the buyer.

Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period,
including the weighted average impact of the shares of common stock issued
during the year from the date(s) of issuance. However, earnings per share may
not be meaningful, because as a part of a plan of reorganization, it is possible
that the interests of the Company's existing stockholders could be diluted or
cancelled.

Diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2000 included the
dilutive effect of outstanding stock options (3,000 shares). The impact of
outstanding stock options was excluded from the computation of diluted loss per
share for the year ended December 31, 2001, as their effect would have been
antidilutive.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers only those short-term, highly
liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash
equivalents.

Inventories. Substantially all product inventories are stated at last-in,
first-out ("LIFO") cost, not in excess of market value. Replacement cost is not
in excess of LIFO cost. Other inventories, principally operating supplies and
repair and maintenance parts, are stated at the lower of average cost or market.
Inventory costs consist of material, labor, and manufacturing overhead,
including depreciation. Inventories consist of the following:

                                                                                  December 31,

                                                                              $        27.2    $      13.8    $       24.1

The LIFO inventory charges resulted from reductions in inventory volumes that
were in inventory layers with higher costs than current market prices.

Depreciation. Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method
at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the various classes of assets.
The principal estimated useful lives of land improvements, buildings, and
machinery and equipment are 8 to 25 years, 15 to 45 years, and 10 to 22 years,
respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation. The Company applies the intrinsic value method to
account for a stock-based compensation plan whereby compensation cost is
recognized only to the extent that the quoted market price of the stock at the
measurement date exceeds the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock.
No compensation cost has been recognized for this plan as the exercise price of
the stock options granted in 2001 and 2000 were at or above the market price. No
stock options were granted in 2002. The pro forma after-tax effect of the
estimated fair value of the grants would be to increase the net loss in 2002 and
2001 by $.6 and $.3, respectively, and reduce net income in 2000 by $2.2. While
the pro forma after tax effect of the estimated fair value of the grants would
have resulted in no change in the basic/diluted loss per share for 2002 and
2001, basic/diluted earnings per share for 2000 would have been reduced to $.18.
The fair value of the 2001 and 2000 stock option grants were estimated using a
Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The pro forma effect of the estimated value of stock options may not be
meaningful, because as a part of a plan of reorganization, it is possible the
interests of the holders of outstanding options could be diluted or cancelled.

Other Income (Expense). Amounts included in Other income (expense) in 2002, 2001
and 2000, other than interest expense, reorganization items and gain on sale of
QAL interest, included the following pre-tax gains (losses):

                                                                                    Year Ended December 31,

Deferred Financing Costs. Costs incurred to obtain debt financing are deferred
and amortized over the estimated term of the related borrowing. Such
amortization is included in Interest expense. As a result of the Cases, the
amortization of the deferred financing costs related to the Debtors' unsecured
debt was discontinued on the Filing Date.

Goodwill. Through the year ended December 31, 2001, the goodwill associated with
the acquisition of the Chandler, Arizona facility (see Note 5) was being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Beginning with the first
quarter of 2002, the Company discontinued the amortization of goodwill
consistent with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets ("SFAS No. 142"). However, the discontinuance of
amortization of goodwill did not have a material effect on the Company's results
of operations or financial condition (the amount of amortization in 2001 was
less than $.8). In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company reviews goodwill
for impairment at least annually. As of December 31, 2002, unamortized goodwill
was approximately $11.4 and was included in Other assets in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets.

Foreign Currency. The Company uses the United States dollar as the functional
currency for its foreign operations.

Derivative Financial Instruments. Hedging transactions using derivative
financial instruments are primarily designed to mitigate KACC's exposure to
changes in prices for certain of the products which KACC sells and consumes and,
to a lesser extent, to mitigate KACC's exposure to changes in foreign currency
exchange rates. KACC does not utilize derivative financial instruments for
trading or other speculative purposes. KACC's derivative activities are
initiated within guidelines established by management and approved by KACC's and
the Company's boards of directors. Hedging transactions are executed centrally
on behalf of all of KACC's business segments to minimize transaction costs,
monitor consolidated net exposures and allow for increased responsiveness to
changes in market factors.

Pre-2001 Accounting. Accounting guidelines in place through December 31, 2000,
provided that any interim fluctuations in option prices prior to the settlement
date were deferred until the settlement date of the underlying hedged
transaction, at which time they were recorded in Net sales or Cost of products
sold (as applicable) together with the related premium cost. No accounting
recognition was accorded to interim fluctuations in prices of forward sales
contracts. Hedge (deferral) accounting would have been terminated (resulting in
the applicable derivative positions being marked-to-market) if the level of
underlying physical transactions ever fell below the net exposure hedged. This
did not occur in 2000.

Current Accounting. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company began reporting
derivative activities pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.
SFAS No. 133 requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as
assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and to measure those instruments at
fair value by "marking-to-market" all of their hedging positions at each
period-end (see Note 13). This contrasts with pre-2001 accounting principles,
which generally only required certain "non-qualifying" hedging positions to be
marked-to-market. Changes in the market value of the Company's open hedging
positions resulting from the mark-to-market process represent unrealized gains
or losses. Such unrealized gains or losses will fluctuate, based on prevailing
market prices at each subsequent balance sheet date, until the transaction date
occurs. Under SFAS No. 133, these changes are recorded as an increase or
reduction in stockholders' equity through either other comprehensive income or
net income, depending on the facts and circumstances with respect to the hedge
and its documentation. To the extent that changes in market values of the
Company's hedging positions are initially recorded in other comprehensive
income, such changes reverse out of Other comprehensive income (offset by any
fluctuations in other "open" positions) and are recorded in net income (included
in Net sales or Cost of products sold, as applicable) when the subsequent
physical transactions occur. Additionally, under SFAS No. 133, if the level of
physical transactions ever falls below the net exposure hedged, "hedge"
accounting must be terminated for such "excess" hedges. In such an instance, the
mark-to-market changes on such excess hedges would be recorded in the income
statement rather than in Other comprehensive income. This did not occur during
2001 or 2002.

Differences between Other comprehensive income and Net income, which have
historically been small, may become significant in future periods as a result of
SFAS No. 133. In general, SFAS No. 133 will result in material fluctuations in
Other comprehensive income and Stockholders' equity in periods of price
volatility, despite the fact that the Company's cash flow and earnings will be
"fixed" to the extent hedged. This result is contrary to the intent of the
Company's hedging program, which is to "lock-in" a price (or range of prices)
for products sold/used so that earnings and cash flows are subject to reduced
risk of volatility.

SFAS No. 133 requires that, as of the date of the initial adoption, the
difference between the market value of derivative instruments recorded on the
Company's consolidated balance sheet and the previous carrying amount of those
derivatives be reported in net income or Other comprehensive income, as
appropriate, as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. Based
on authoritative accounting literature issued during the first quarter of 2001,
it was determined that all of the cumulative impact of adopting SFAS No. 133
should be recorded in Other comprehensive income. The cumulative effect amount
was reclassified to earnings during 2001.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Given the fact that the fair value of
substantially all of the Company's outstanding indebtedness will be determined
as part of the plan of reorganization, it is impracticable and inappropriate to
estimate the fair value of these financial instruments at December 31, 2002 and
2001.

New Accounting Pronouncements. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations ("SFAS No. 143") was issued in
June 2001. In general terms, SFAS No. 143 requires the recognition of a
liability resulting from anticipated retirement obligations, offset by an
increase in the value of the associated productive asset for such anticipated
costs. Over the life of the asset, depreciation expense is to include the
ratable expensing of the retirement cost included with the asset value. The
statement applies to all legal obligations associated with the retirement of a
tangible long-lived asset that results from the acquisition, construction, or
development and (or) the normal operation of a long-lived asset, except for
certain lease obligations. Excluded from this statement are obligations arising
solely from a plan to dispose of a long-lived asset and obligations that result
from the improper operation of an asset (i.e. the type of environmental
obligations discussed in Note 12).

The Company's consolidated financial statements already reflect reclamation
obligations by its bauxite mining operations in accordance with accounting
policies consistent with SFAS No. 143. SFAS No. 143 was first applied to the
Company's consolidated financial statements beginning January 1, 2003. The
adoption of SFAS No. 143 did not have a material impact on the Company's
financial statements.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets ("SFAS No. 144") was issued in
August 2001. In general terms, SFAS No. 144 establishes a single accounting
model for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, and supersedes prior
rules in this regard. SFAS No. 144 retains the existing accounting requirements
for recognizing impairments on long-lived assets that are to be held and used.
However, it provides additional guidelines such as a "probability-weighted cash
flow estimation" approach to deal with situations where alternative and
undecided courses of action exist. Under SFAS No. 144, long-lived assets to be
disposed of by sale are to be recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or
fair value less cost to sell. SFAS No. 144 was applied to the Company's
consolidated financial statements beginning January 1, 2002. The adoption of
SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial
statements.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities ("SFAS No. 146) was issued in June
2002 and must be first applied to the Company's consolidated financial
statements beginning January 1, 2003. SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for
the cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured
initially at its fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred.
This contrasts with current accounting principles where a liability for an exit
cost was recognized at the date an entity announced commitment to an exit plan.
The adoption of SFAS No. 146 did not have a material impact on the Company's
financial statements.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure ("SFAS No. 148") was issued in December
2002. SFAS No. 148 amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS No. 123") to provide alternative
methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148
amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent
disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method
used on reported results. SFAS No. 148 was first applied to the Company's 2002
year-end financial statements. The adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have a
material impact on the Company's financial statements.

3. PACIFIC NORTHWEST SMELTER CURTAILMENTS AND RELATED POWER MATTERS

Future Power Supply and its Impact on Future Operating Rate. During October
2000, KACC signed a new power contract with the Bonneville Power Administration
("BPA") under which the BPA, starting October 1, 2001, was to provide KACC's
operations in the State of Washington with approximately 290 megawatts of power
through September 2006. The contract provided KACC with sufficient power to
fully operate KACC's Trentwood facility (which requires up to an approximate 40
megawatts), as well as approximately 40% of the combined capacity of KACC's Mead
and Tacoma aluminum smelting operations which have been curtailed since the last
half of 2000.

Rates under the BPA contract during the period October 2001 through September
2002 were approximately 46% higher than power costs under the prior contract and
such rates were subject to changes in future periods. The contract also included
a take-or-pay requirement and clauses under which KACC's power allocation could
be curtailed, or its costs increased, in certain instances. Under the contract,
KACC could only remarket its power allocation to reduce or eliminate take-or-pay
obligations. KACC was not entitled to receive any profits from any such
remarketing efforts in contrast to KACC's prior contract with the BPA that
expired in September 2001. However, under the BPA contract, KACC would have
again been liable for take-or-pay costs beginning in October 2002. Given market
power prices during 2002, the Company estimated that such take-or-pay charges
could have been in the range of up to $1.0 to $2.0 per month through September
2006. The actual amount of any such obligation would be dependent upon the then
prevailing prices of electricity during the contract period.

As a part of the reorganization process, the Company concluded that it was in
its best interest to reject the BPA contract as permitted by the Code. As such,
with the authorization of the Court, the Company rejected the BPA contract on
September 30, 2002. The contract rejection gives rise to a pre-petition claim.
The BPA has filed a proof of claim for approximately $75.0 in connection with
the Cases in respect of the contract rejection. The claim is expected to be
settled in the overall context of the Debtors' plan of reorganization.
Accordingly, any payments that may be required as a result of the rejection of
the BPA contract are expected to only be made upon the Company's emergence from
the Cases. The amount of the BPA claim will be determined either through a
negotiated settlement, litigation or a computation of prevailing power prices
over the contract period. As the amount of the BPA's claim in respect of the
contract rejection has not been determined, no provision has been made for the
claim in the accompanying financial statements. KACC has entered into a
short-term contract (pending the completion of a longer term arrangement) with
an alternate supplier to provide the power necessary to operate its Trentwood
facility.

The restart of a portion of KACC's Mead facility would require the purchase of
additional power from available sources. For KACC to make such a decision, it
would have to be able to purchase such power at a reasonable price in relation
to current and expected market conditions for a sufficient term to justify its
restart costs, which could be significant depending on the number of lines
restarted and the length of time between the shutdown and restart. Given recent
primary aluminum prices and the forward price of power in the Northwest, it is
unlikely that KACC would operate more than a portion of its Mead facility in the
near future. If KACC were to restart all or a portion of its Mead facility, it
would take between three to six months to reach the full operating rate for such
operations, depending upon the number of lines restarted. Even after achieving
the full operating rate, operating only a portion of the Mead facility would
result in production/cost inefficiencies such that operating results would, at
best, be breakeven to modestly negative at long-term primary aluminum prices.
See Note 5 for a discussion of the Northwest smelters fourth quarter of 2002
impairment charge.

Power Remarketing. In response to the unprecedented high market prices for power
in the Pacific Northwest, KACC (first partially and then fully) curtailed the
primary aluminum production at the Tacoma and Mead, Washington smelters during
the last half of 2000 and all of 2001 and 2002. As a result of the curtailments,
as permitted under the BPA contract, the Company remarketed the power that it
had under contract through September 30, 2001 (the end of the prior contract
period). In connection with such power remarketing, the Company recorded net
pre-tax gains of approximately $229.2 in 2001 and $159.5 in 2000. Gross proceeds
were offset by employee-related expenses, a non-cash LIFO inventory charge and
other fixed commitments. The resulting net gains have been reflected as
Non-recurring operating charges (benefits), net (see Note 6). The net gain
amounts were composed of gross proceeds of $259.5 in 2001 and $207.8 in 2000, of
which $347.5 was received in 2001 and $119.8 was received in 2000 (although a
portion of such proceeds represent a replacement of the profit that would have
otherwise been generated through operations).

4. INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES

Summary of combined financial information is provided below for unconsolidated
aluminum investments, most of which supply and process raw materials. The
investees are Queensland Alumina Limited ("QAL") (20.0% owned), Anglesey
Aluminium Limited ("Anglesey") (49.0% owned) and Kaiser Jamaica Bauxite Company
(49.0% owned). The Company's equity in income (loss) before income taxes of such
operations is treated as a reduction (increase) in Cost of products sold. At
December 31, 2002 and 2001, KACC's net receivables from these affiliates were
not material.

In September 2001, KACC sold an approximate 8.3% interest in QAL and recorded a
pre-tax gain of approximately $163.6 (included in Other income/(expense) in the
accompanying consolidated statements of income (loss)). As a result of the
transaction, KACC now owns a 20% interest in QAL. The total value of the
transaction was approximately $189.0, consisting of a cash payment of
approximately $159.0 plus the purchaser's assumption of approximately $30.0 of
off-balance sheet QAL indebtedness guaranteed by KACC prior to the sale. KACC's
share of QAL's production for the first eight months of 2001 and for the year
ended December 31, 2000 was approximately 668,000 tons and 1,064,000 tons,
respectively. Had the sale of the QAL interest been effective as of the
beginning of 2000, KACC's share of QAL's production for 2001 and 2000 would have
been reduced by approximately 196,000 tons and 312,000 tons, respectively.
Historically, KACC has sold about half of its share of QAL's production to third
parties and has used the remainder to supply its Northwest smelters, which have
been curtailed since the last half of 2000 (see Note 3). The reduction in KACC's
alumina supply associated with this transaction is expected to be substantially
offset by the return of its Gramercy alumina refinery to full operations during
the first quarter of 2002 at a higher capacity, by reduced internal requirements
due to curtailments of the primary aluminum facilities and by planned increases
during 2003 in capacity at its Alpart alumina refinery in Jamaica. Accordingly,
the QAL transaction has not had an adverse impact on KACC's ability to satisfy
existing third-party alumina customer contracts.

In June 2001, KACC wrote-off its investment of $2.8 in MetalSpectrum, LLC, a
start-up, e-commerce entity in which KACC was a founding partner (in 2000).
MetalSpectrum ceased operations during the second quarter of 2001.

The Company's equity in income (loss) differs from the summary net income (loss)
due to varying percentage ownerships in the entities and equity method
accounting adjustments. Prior to December 31, 2000, KACC's investment in its
unconsolidated affiliates exceeded its equity in their net assets and such
excess was being amortized to Depreciation and amortization. At December 31,
2000, the excess investment had been fully amortized. Such amortization was
approximately $10.0 for the year ended December 31, 2000.

The Company and its affiliates have interrelated operations. KACC provides some
of its affiliates with services such as management and engineering. Significant
activities with affiliates include the acquisition and processing of bauxite,
alumina, and primary aluminum. Purchases from these affiliates were $223.4,
$266.0 and $235.7, in the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.

During the period from 2000 to 2002, the Company completed several acquisitions
and dispositions and, based on changes in circumstances, recorded impairment
charges as discussed below:

2002 -

-     As previously disclosed, the Company was evaluating its options for
      minimizing the near-term negative cash flow at its Mead and Tacoma
      facilities and how to optimize the use and/or value of the facilities in
      connection with the development of a plan of reorganization. The Company
      conducted a study of the long-term competitive position of the Mead and
      Tacoma facilities and potential options for these facilities. Once the
      Company received the preliminary results of the study in the fourth
      quarter of 2002, it analyzed the findings and met with the USWA and other
      parties prior to making its determination as to the appropriate action(s).
      The outcome of the study and the Company's ongoing work on developing a
      plan of reorganization led the Company to indefinitely curtail the Mead
      facility in January 2003. The curtailment of the Mead facility was due to
      the continuing unfavorable market dynamics, specifically unattractive
      long-term power prices and weak primary aluminum prices - both of which
      are significant impediments for an older smelter with higher-than-average
      operating costs. The Mead facility is expected to remain completely
      curtailed unless and until an appropriate combination of reduced power
      prices, higher primary aluminum prices and other factors occurs. As a
      result of indefinite curtailment, KACC evaluated the recoverability of the
      December 31, 2002 carrying value of its Northwest smelters. The Company
      determined that the expected future undiscounted cash flows of the
      smelters was below their carrying value. Accordingly, KACC adjusted the
      carrying value of its Northwest smelting assets to their estimated fair
      value, which resulted in a fourth quarter 2002 non-cash impairment charge
      of approximately $138.5 (which amount was reflected in Non-recurring
      operating charges (benefits), net - see Note 6). The estimated fair value
      was based on anticipated future cash flows discounted at a rate
      commensurate with the risk involved. Additionally, during December 2002,
      the Company accrued approximately $58.8 of pension, postretirement benefit
      and related obligations for the hourly employees who had been on a
      laid-off status and under the terms of their labor contract are eligible
      for early retirement because of the indefinite curtailment (which amount
      was reflected in Non-recurring operating charges (benefits), net - see
      Note 6). The indefinite curtailment of the Mead facility also resulted in
      a $18.6 net realizable value charge and a $.9 LIFO inventory charge for
      certain of the inventories at the facility (see Notes 2 and 6).

-     In December 2002, with Court approval, KACC sold its Oxnard, California
      aluminum forging facility because the Company had determined that the
      facility was not necessary for a successful operation and reorganization
      of its business. Net proceeds from the sale were approximately $7.4. The
      sale resulted in a net of loss of $.2 (included in Non-recurring operating
      charges (benefits) net - see Note 6) which included $1.1 of employee
      benefits and related costs associated with approximately 60 employees that
      were terminated in December 2002.

-     In June 2002, with Court approval, the Company sold certain of the
      Trentwood facility equipment, previously associated with the lid and tab
      stock product lines discussed below, for total proceeds of $15.8, which
      amount approximated its previously estimated fair value. As a result, the
      sale did not have a material impact on the Company's operating results for
      the year ended December 31, 2002.

-     In the ordinary course of business, KACC sold non-operating real estate
      and certain miscellaneous equipment for total proceeds of approximately
      $7.5 ($3.0 in the fourth quarter). These transactions resulted in pre-tax
      gains of $3.8 (included in Other income (expense) - see Note 2).

2001 -

-     During 2001, as part of its ongoing initiatives to generate cash benefits,
      KACC sold certain non-operating real estate for net proceeds totaling
      approximately $7.9, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $6.9 (included in Other
      income (expense) - see Note 2).

-     In the latter part of 2001, the Company concluded that the profitability
      of its Trentwood facility could be enhanced by further focusing resources
      on its core, heat-treat business and by exiting lid and tab stock product
      lines used in the beverage container market and brazing sheet for the
      automotive market. As a result of this decision, the Company concluded it
      would sell or idle several pieces of equipment resulting in an impairment
      charge of approximately $17.7 at December 31, 2001 (which amount was
      reflected in Non-recurring operating charges (benefits), net - see Note
      6).

2000 -

-     KACC sold (a) its Pleasanton, California office complex, because the
      complex had become surplus to the Company's needs, for net proceeds of
      approximately $51.6, which resulted in a net pre-tax gain of $22.0
      (included in Other income (expense) - see Note 2); (b) certain
      non-operating properties, in the ordinary course of business, for total
      proceeds of approximately $12.0; and (c) the Micromill assets and
      technology for a nominal payment at closing and possible future payments
      based on subsequent performance and profitability of the Micromill
      technology. The sale of the non-operating properties and Micromill assets
      did not have a material impact on the Company's 2000 operating results.

-     KACC evaluated the recoverability of the approximate $200.0 carrying value
      of its Northwest smelters, as a result of the change in the economic
      environment of the Pacific Northwest associated with the reduced power
      availability and higher power costs for KACC's Northwest smelters under
      the terms of the contract with the BPA starting in October 2001 (see Note
      3). The Company determined that the expected future undiscounted cash
      flows of the Washington smelters were below their carrying value.
      Accordingly, KACC adjusted the carrying value of its Washington smelting
      assets to their estimated fair value, which resulted in a non-cash
      impairment charge of approximately $33.0 (which amount was reflected in
      Non-recurring operating charges (benefits), net - see Note 6). The
      estimated fair value was based on anticipated future cash flows discounted
      at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

-     KACC acquired the assets of a drawn tube aluminum fabricating operation in
      Chandler, Arizona. Total consideration for the acquisition was $16.1 ($1.1
      of property, plant and equipment $2.8 of accounts receivables, inventory
      and prepaid expenses and $12.2 of goodwill).

2002. The product line exit charge in 2002 relates to a $1.6 LIFO inventory
charge which resulted from the Flat-rolled products segment's exit from the lid
and tab stock and brazing sheet product lines (see Note 2).

Restructuring charges result from the Company's initiatives to increase cash
flow, generate cash and improve the Company's financial flexibility.
Restructuring charges for 2002 consist of $10.1 of employee benefit and related
costs associated with 140 job eliminations (all of which had been eliminated
prior to December 31, 2002) and $2.5 of third party costs associated with cost
reduction initiatives.

2001 and 2000. The contractual labor costs related to smelter curtailments in
2001 consisted of certain compensation costs associated with laid-off USWA
workers that KACC estimated would be required to operate the Northwest smelters
at up to a 40% operating rate. The costs had been accrued through early 2003
because KACC did not expect to restart the Northwest smelters prior to that
date.

Restructuring charges for 2001 consist of $17.9 of employee benefit and related
costs associated with 355 job eliminations (all of which have been eliminated)
and $11.7 of third party costs associated with cost reduction initiatives. The
2000 restructuring charges were associated with the Primary aluminum and
Corporate segments' ongoing cost reduction initiatives. During 2000, these
initiatives resulted in restructuring charges for employee benefit and other
costs for approximately 50 job eliminations at the Company's Tacoma facility and
approximately 50 employee eliminations due to consolidation or elimination of
certain corporate staff functions. All job eliminations associated with these
initiatives have occurred.

The Washington smelters impairment charge in 2000 included a charge of $33.0 to
write-down the Washington smelting assets to their estimated fair value (see
Note 5).

Product line exit charges in 2000 included (a) a $12.6 impairment charge
reflected by the Flat-rolled products segment which included a $11.1 LIFO
inventory charge (see Note 2) and a $1.5 charge to reduce the carrying value of
certain assets to their net realizable value as a result of the segment's
decision to exit the can body stock product line; and (b) a $5.6 impairment
charge recorded by the Engineered products segment which included a $.9 LIFO
inventory charge (see Note 2) and a $4.7 charge to reduce the carrying value of
certain machining facilities and assets, which were no longer required as a
result of the segment's decision to exit a marginal product line, to their
estimated net realizable value.

From September 1998 through September 2000, KACC and the United Steelworkers of
America ("USWA") were involved in a labor dispute as a result of the September
1998 USWA strike and the subsequent "lock-out" by KACC in February 1999. The
labor dispute was settled in September 2000. Under the terms of the settlement,
USWA members generally returned to the affected plants during October 2000. The
Company recorded a one-time pre-tax charge of $38.5 in 2000 to reflect the
incremental, non-recurring impacts of the labor settlement, including severance
and other contractual obligations for non-returning workers. The allocation of
the labor settlement charge to the business units was: Bauxite and alumina -
$2.1, Primary aluminum - $15.9, Flat-rolled products - $18.2 and Engineered
products - $2.3. At December 31, 2002, substantially all of such costs had been
paid.

The incremental maintenance charge in 2000 consisted of normal recurring
maintenance expenditures for the Gramercy facility that otherwise would have
been incurred in the ordinary course of business over a one to three year
period. The Company chose to incur the expenditures prior to the restart of the
facility to avoid normal operational outages that otherwise would have occurred
once the facility resumed production.

DIP Facility. On February 12, 2002, the Company and KACC entered into a
post-petition credit agreement with a group of lenders for debtor-in-possession
financing (the "DIP Facility"). The Court signed a final order approving the DIP
Facility in March 2002. In March 2003, the Additional Debtors were added as
co-guarantors and the DIP Facility lenders received super priority status with
respect to certain of the Additional Debtors' assets. The DIP Facility provides
for a secured, revolving line of credit through the earlier of February 12,
2004, the effective date of a plan of reorganization or voluntary termination by
the Company. Under the DIP Facility, KACC is able to borrow amounts by means of
revolving credit advances and to have issued for its benefit letters of credit
(up to $125.0) in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of $300.0 or a
borrowing base relating to eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory and
eligible fixed assets reduced by certain reserves, as defined in the DIP
Facility agreement. The DIP Facility is guaranteed by the Company and certain
significant subsidiaries of KACC. Interest on any outstanding borrowings will
bear a spread over either a base rate or LIBOR, at KACC's option. The DIP
Facility requires KACC to comply with certain financial covenants and places
restrictions on the Company's and KACC's ability to, among other things, incur
debt and liens, make investments, pay dividends, undertake transactions with
affiliates, make capital expenditures, and enter into unrelated lines of
business. As of December 31, 2002, $147.0 was available to the Company under the
DIP Facility (of which $79.2 could be used for additional letters of credit) and
no borrowings were outstanding under the revolving credit facility. During March
2003, the Company obtained a waiver from the lenders in respect of its
compliance with a financial covenant covering the four-quarter period ending
March 31, 2003. The waiver is of limited duration and will lapse on June 29,
2003 unless otherwise incorporated into a formal amendment. The Company is
working with the lenders to complete such amendment that would incorporate the
limited waiver and also modify the financial covenant for periods subsequent to
December 31, 2002. The Company believes that such an amendment will be agreed
with the DIP Facility lenders not later than May 2003. While absolute assurances
cannot be given in respect of the Company's ability to successfully obtain the
necessary covenant modification, based on discussions with the DIP lenders and
the fact that there are currently no outstanding borrowings and only a limited
amount of letters of credit outstanding under the DIP facility, the Company
believes that acceptable modifications are likely to be obtained. As part of
this amendment, the Company also plans to request that the lenders extend the
DIP Facility past its current February 2004 expiration.

Credit Agreement. Prior to the February 12, 2002 Filing Date, the Company and
KACC had a credit agreement, as amended (the "Credit Agreement"), which provided
a secured, revolving line of credit. The Credit Agreement terminated on the
Filing Date and was replaced by the DIP Facility discussed above. As of the
Filing Date, outstanding letters of credit were approximately $43.3 (which were
replaced by letters of credit under the DIP Facility) and there were no
borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

Alpart CARIFA Loans. In December 1991, Alumina Partners of Jamaica ("Alpart")
entered into a loan agreement with the Caribbean Basin Projects Financing
Authority ("CARIFA"). As of December 31, 2002, Alpart's obligations under the
loan agreement were secured by two letters of credit aggregating $23.5. KACC was
a party to one of the two letters of credit in the amount of $15.3 in respect of
its 65% ownership interest in Alpart. Alpart has also agreed to indemnify
bondholders of CARIFA for certain tax payments that could result from events, as
defined, that adversely affect the tax treatment of the interest income on the
bonds.

7.6% Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Bonds. The solid waste disposal revenue bonds
are secured by a first mortgage on certain machinery at KACC's Mead smelter and
a second lien on certain real property and improvements at such facility.

9 7/8% Notes, 10 7/8% Notes and 12 3/4% Notes. The obligations of KACC with
respect to its 9 7/8% Senior Notes due 2002 (the "9 7/8% Notes"), its 10 7/8%
Senior Notes due 2006 (the "10 7/8% Notes") and its 12 3/4% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2003 (the "12 3/4% Notes") are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by
certain subsidiaries of KACC. During 2001, prior to concluding that, as a result
of the events outlined in Note 1, the Company should file the Cases, KACC had
purchased $52.2 of the 9 7/8% Notes. The net gain from the purchase of the notes
was less than $1.1 and has been included in Other income (expense) in the
accompanying statements of consolidated income (loss).

Debt Covenants and Restrictions. The DIP Facility requires KACC to comply with
certain financial covenants and places restrictions on the Company's and KACC's
ability to, among other things, incur debt and liens, make investments, pay
dividends, undertake transactions with affiliates, make capital expenditures,
and enter into unrelated lines of business. The DIP Facility is secured by,
among other things, (i) mortgages on KACC's major domestic plants; (ii) subject
to certain exceptions, liens on the accounts receivable, inventory, equipment,
domestic patents and trademarks, and substantially all other personal property
of KACC and certain of its subsidiaries; (iii) a pledge of all the stock of KACC
owned by the Company; and (iv) pledges of all of the stock of a number of KACC's
wholly owned domestic subsidiaries, pledges of a portion of the stock of certain
foreign subsidiaries, and pledges of a portion of the stock of certain partially
owned foreign affiliates.

The indentures governing the 9 7/8% Notes, the 10 7/8% Notes and the 12 3/4%
Notes (collectively, the "Indentures") restrict, among other things, KACC's
ability to incur debt, undertake transactions with affiliates, and pay
dividends. Further, the Indentures provide that KACC must offer to purchase the
9 7/8% Notes, the 10 7/8% Notes and the 12 3/4% Notes, respectively, upon the
occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined therein).

8.   INCIDENT AT GRAMERCY FACILITY

General. From July 1999 until December 2000, KACC's Gramercy, Louisiana alumina
refinery was completely curtailed as a result of extensive damage from an
explosion in the digestion area of the plant. Construction on the damaged part
of the facility began during the first quarter of 2000. However, construction
was not substantially completed until the third quarter of 2001. During the
first nine months of 2001, the plant operated at approximately 68% of its
newly-rated estimated capacity of 1,250,000 tons. During the fourth quarter of
2001, the plant operated at approximately 90% of its newly-rated capacity. Since
the end of February 2002, the plant has, except for normal operating variations,
generally operated at approximately 100% of its newly-rated capacity. The
facility is now focusing its efforts on achieving its full operating efficiency.
During 2001, abnormal Gramercy-related start-up costs and litigation costs
totaled approximately $64.9 and $6.5, respectively. These incremental costs for
2001 were offset by approximately $36.6 of additional insurance benefit
(recorded as a reduction of Bauxite and alumina business unit's cost of products
sold). The abnormal start-up costs in 2001 resulted from operating the plant in
an interim mode pending completion of construction at well less than the
expected production rate or full efficiency. During 2002, because the plant was
operating at near full capacity, the amount of start-up costs was substantially
reduced compared to prior periods. Such costs were approximately $3.0 during the
first quarter of 2002 and were substantially eliminated during the balance of
2002.

Property Damage. KACC's insurance policies provided that KACC would be
reimbursed for the costs of repairing or rebuilding the damaged portion of the
facility using new materials of like kind and quality with no deduction for
depreciation. As a result of discussions with the insurance carriers, the
Company received a reimbursement of $100.0 for property damage in 2000.

Contingencies. The Gramercy incident resulted in a significant number of claims
and individual and class action lawsuits being filed against KACC and others
alleging, among other things, property damage, business interruption losses by
other businesses and personal injury. KACC ultimately was able to settle all of
these matters for amounts which, after the application of insurance, were not
material to KACC.

Income taxes are classified as either domestic or foreign, based on whether
payment is made or due to the United States or a foreign country. Certain income
classified as foreign is also subject to domestic income taxes.

The (provision) benefit for income taxes on income (loss) before income taxes

(1)  Net deferred income tax liabilities of $15.5 and $39.4 are included in the
     Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively,
     in the caption entitled Long-term liabilities.

2002. For the year ended December 31, 2002, as a result of the Cases, the
Company did not recognize U.S. income tax benefits for the losses incurred from
its domestic operations (including temporary differences) or any U.S. income tax
benefits for foreign income taxes. Instead, the increases in federal and state
deferred tax assets as a result of additional net operating losses and foreign
tax credits generated in 2002 were fully offset by increases in valuation
allowances.

2001 and 2000. Prior to 2001, the principal component of the Company's deferred
income tax assets was the tax benefit associated with the accrued liability for
postretirement benefits other than pensions. The future tax deductions with
respect to the turnaround of that accrual will occur over a 30-to-40-year
period. If such deductions were to create or increase a net operating loss, the
Company had the ability to carry forward such loss for 20 taxable years.
Accordingly, prior to the Cases, the Company believed that a long-term view of
profitability was appropriate and had concluded that a substantial majority of
the net deferred income tax asset would more likely than not be realized.

However, as a result of the Cases, the Company provided additional valuation
allowances of $530.4 in 2001 of which $505.4 was recorded in Provision for
income taxes in the accompanying statements of consolidated income (loss) and
$25.0 was recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet. The additional valuation allowances were provided as
the Company no longer believed that the "more likely than not" recognition
criteria were appropriate given a combination of factors including: (a) the
expiration date of the loss and credit carryforwards; (b) the possibility that
all or a substantial portion of the loss and credit carryforwards and tax bases
of assets could be reduced to the extent of cancellation of indebtedness
occurring as a part of a reorganization plan; (c) the possibility that all or a
substantial portion of the loss and credit carryforwards could become limited if
a change of ownership occurs as a result of the Debtors reorganization; and (d)
due to updated near-term expectations regarding near-term taxable income. The
valuation allowances adjustment had no impact on the Company's or KACC's
liquidity, operations or loan compliance and was not intended, in any way, to be
indicative of their long-term prospects or ability to successfully reorganize.

Tax Attributes. At December 31, 2002, the Company had certain tax attributes
available to offset regular federal income tax requirements, subject to certain
limitations, including net operating loss and general business credit
carryforwards of $297.7 and $.7, respectively, which expire periodically through
2022 and 2011, respectively, FTC carryforwards of $133.2, which expire primarily
from 2004 through 2007, and alternative minimum tax ("AMT") credit carryforwards
of $27.1, which have an indefinite life. The Company also has AMT net operating
loss and FTC carryforwards of $212.4 and $139.6, respectively, available,
subject to certain limitations, to offset future alternative minimum taxable
income, which expire periodically through 2022 and 2007, respectively.

The Company and its domestic subsidiaries file consolidated federal income tax
returns. During the period from October 28, 1988, through June 30, 1993, the
Company and its domestic subsidiaries were included in the consolidated federal
income tax returns of MAXXAM. The tax allocation agreements of the Company and
KACC with MAXXAM terminated pursuant to their terms, effective for taxable
periods beginning after June 30, 1993. Due to the resolution during the fourth
quarter of 2002 of all remaining tax matters relating to the taxable periods
covered by the tax allocation agreements, no further payments or refunds are
required under such agreements.

See Note 12 concerning commitments and contingencies.

10.  EMPLOYEE BENEFIT AND INCENTIVE PLANS

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans. Retirement plans are generally
non-contributory for salaried and hourly employees and generally provide for
benefits based on formulas which consider such items as length of service and
earnings during years of service. Through December 31, 2002, the Company's
funding policies met or exceeded all regulatory requirements. However, as more
fully discussed below, the Company failed to meet certain minimum funding
requirements in early 2003. The Company does not currently intend to make any
further contributions to its domestic retirement plans as it believes that
virtually all of such amounts are pre-Filing Date obligations. As previously
announced, the Company has met on several occasions with the PBGC, the
government agency that guarantees annuity payments from defined pension plans,
to discuss alternative solutions to the pension funding issue that would help
the Company's emergence from bankruptcy. These options could include extended
amortization periods for payments of unfunded liabilities or the potential
termination of the plans.

The Company and its subsidiaries provide postretirement health care and life
insurance benefits to eligible retired employees and their dependents.
Substantially all employees may become eligible for those benefits if they reach
retirement age while still working for the Company or its subsidiaries. The
Company has not funded the liability for these benefits, which are expected to
be paid out of cash generated by operations. The Company reserves the right,
subject to applicable collective bargaining agreements, to amend or terminate
these benefits.

Assumptions used to value obligations at year-end and to determine the net
periodic benefit cost in the subsequent year are:

In 2002, the average annual assumed rate of increase in the per capita cost of
covered benefits (i.e., health care cost trend rate) is 8.5% for all
participants. The assumed rate of increase is assumed to decline gradually to
5.0% in 2010 for all participants and remain at that level thereafter.

other postretirement benefit plans as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the
corresponding amounts that are included in the Company's Consolidated Balance
Sheets.

(1)  The aggregate accumulated benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets
     for pension plans with accumulated benefit obligation in excess of plan
     assets were $854.7 and $424.6, respectively, as of December 31, 2002 and
     $856.1 and $634.7, respectively, as of December 31, 2001.

The assets of the Company-sponsored pension plans, like numerous other
companies' plans, are, to a substantial degree, invested in the capital markets
and managed by a third party. Given: (1) the performance of the stock market
during 2002 and the resulting declines in the value of the assets held by the
Company's pension plans and (2) the declining interests rates, which cause the
discounted value of the projected liabilities to increase, the Company was
required to reflect an increase in its additional minimum pension liabilities of
$133.1 in its December 31, 2002 balance sheet. Similar circumstances had
resulted in a $64.5 (net of income tax benefit of $38.0) increase in additional
minimum pension liabilities in its December 31, 2001 balance sheet. Minimum
pension liability adjustments are non-cash adjustments that are reflected as an
increase in pension liability and an offsetting charge to stockholders' equity
through Other comprehensive income (rather than Net income). Additionally, 2003
operating results are expected to be adversely impacted by higher pension costs
resulting from the decline in the value of the pension plans' assets and
increased liabilities due to lower interest rates, restructuring activities and
the incurrence of additional full early retirement obligations in respect of
KACC's Washington smelters.

     2002, $24.5 of the $36.3 adjusted net periodic benefit costs in 2001 and
     $6.1 of the $5.3 adjusted net periodic benefit costs in 2000 related to
     pension benefit accruals that were provided in respect of non-recurring

Assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts

Changes Impacting Existing Plans. The foregoing medical benefit liability and
cost data reflects the fact that in February 2002, KACC notified its salaried
retirees that, given the significant escalation in medical costs and the
increased burden it was creating, KACC was going to require such retirees to
fund a portion of their medical costs beginning May 1, 2002. The impact of such
charges reduced the estimated cash payments by the Company by approximately
$10.0 per year. The financial statement benefits of this change will, however,
be reflected over the remaining employment period of the Company's employees in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

During 2002, approximately 230 salaried employees retired. These retirements
resulted in lump sum payments which triggered a special provision under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA") that required the Company to
make a $17.0 accelerated contribution to its salaried employee pension plan on
January 15, 2003. However, because substantially all of the amount would have
been classified as a pre-Filing Date obligation requiring Court approval before
payment and represented a small portion of the legacy liabilities that must be
addressed in the Company's reorganization, the Company did not make the payment.
Since the Company did not make the payment, it is no longer in compliance with
ERISA's minimum funding requirements and, in turn, is prohibited by ERISA from
making lump-sum distributions from the salaried employee pension plan to
employees who retire after December 31, 2002.

Special Charges in 2002. During 2002, the Company's Corporate segment recorded
charges of $24.1 ($9.5 in the fourth quarter - included in Corporate selling,
administrative, research and development, and general expense), for additional
pension expense. The charges were recorded because:

     (1) The lump sum payments from the assets of KACC's salaried employee
         pension plan exceeded a stipulated level prescribed by GAAP.
         Accordingly, a partial "settlement," as defined by GAAP, was deemed to
         have occurred. Under GAAP, if a partial "settlement" occurs, a charge
         must be recorded for a portion of any unrecognized net actuarial losses
         not reflected in the consolidated balance sheet. The portion of the
         total unrecognized actuarial losses of the plan ($75.0 at December 31,
         2001) that had to be recorded as a charge was the relative percentage
         of the total projected benefit obligation of the plan ($300.0 at
         December 31, 2001) settled by the lump sum payments totaling $75.0 in
         2002; and

     (2) During the first quarter of 2002, KACC also paid $4.2 into a trust fund
         in respect of certain obligations attributable to certain non-qualified
         pension benefits under management compensation agreements. These
         payments also represented a "settlement" and resulted in a charge of
         $4.2.

In addition to the foregoing, during the fourth quarter of 2002, the Primary
aluminum segment reflected approximately $58.8 of charges for pension,
postretirement medical benefits and related obligations in respect of the
indefinite curtailment of the Mead facility. This amount consisted of
approximately $29.0 of incremental pension charges and $29.8 of incremental
postretirement medical and related charges.

Postemployment Benefits. The Company provides certain benefits to former or
inactive employees after employment but before retirement.

Restricted Common Stock. The Company has a restricted stock plan, which is one
of its stock incentive compensation plans, for its officers and other employees.
During January 2002, approximately 95,000 restricted shares of the Company's
Common Stock were issued to officers and other employees. The fair value of the
restricted shares issued is being amortized to expense over the terms of the
applicable restriction periods. The restricted shares issued in 2001 included an
exchange with certain employees who held stock options to purchase the Company's
Common Stock whereby a total of approximately 3,617,000 options were exchanged
(on a fair value basis) for approximately 1,086,000 restricted shares. During
2002, approximately 406,000 of the restricted shares, all of which had not been
vested, were cancelled, including approximately 338,000 restricted shares that
were voluntarily forfeited by certain employees.

Incentive Plans. The Company has an unfunded incentive compensation program,
which provides incentive compensation based on performance against annual plans
and over rolling three-year periods. In addition, the Company has a
"nonqualified" stock option plan and KACC has a defined contribution plan for
salaried employees which provides for matching contributions by the Company at
the discretion of the board of directors. Given the challenging business
environment encountered during 2002 and the disappointing results of operations
for the year, only modest incentive payments were made and no matching
contribution awarded in respect of 2002. The Company's expense for all of these
plans was $1.0, $4.5 and $5.7 for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and
2000, respectively.

Up to 8,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock were initially reserved for
issuance under its stock incentive compensation plans. At December 31, 2002,
3,295,156 shares of Common Stock remained available for issuance under those
plans. Stock options granted pursuant to the Company's nonqualified stock option
program are to be granted at or above the prevailing market price, generally
vest at a rate of 20 - 33% per year, and have a five or ten year term.
Information concerning nonqualified stock option plan activity is shown below.
The weighted average price per share for each year is shown parenthetically.

                                                                                     2002              2001            2000

Options exercisable at December 31, 2002 had exercisable prices ranging from
$1.72 to $12.75 and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 3.8 years.
Given that the average sales price of the Company's Common Stock is currently in
the $.05 per share range, the Company believes it is unlikely any of the stock
options will be exercised. Further, as a part of a plan of reorganization, it is
possible that the interests of the holders of outstanding options could be
diluted or cancelled.

11.  MINORITY INTERESTS

Minority Interests in Consolidated Affiliates. The Company owns a 90% interest
in Volta Aluminium Company Limited ("Valco") and a 65% interest in Alpart. These
companies' financial statements are fully consolidated into the Company's
consolidated financial statements because they are majority-owned.

KACC Preference Stock. KACC has four series of $100 par value Cumulative
Convertible Preference Stock ("$100 Preference Stock") outstanding with annual
dividend requirements of between 4 1/8% and 4 3/4% included in "Other" in 2000
in the table above. KACC has the option to redeem the $100 Preference Stock at
par value plus accrued dividends. KACC does not intend to issue any additional
shares of the $100 Preference Stock. By its terms, the $100 Preference Stock can
be exchanged for per share cash amounts between $69 - $80. KACC records the $100
Preference Stock at their exchange amounts for financial statement presentation
and the Company includes such amounts in minority interests. At December 31,
2002 and 2001, outstanding shares of $100 Preference Stock were 8,669 and 8,969,
respectively. In accordance with the Code and DIP Facility, KACC is not
permitted to repurchase any of its stock. Further, as a part of a plan of
reorganization, it is likely that the interests of the holders of the $100
Preference Stock will be diluted or cancelled.

In 1985, KACC issued certain of its Redeemable Preference Stock with a par value
of $1 per share and a liquidation and redemption value of $50 per share plus
accrued dividends, if any. In connection with the USWA settlement agreement in
September 2000, KACC redeemed all of the remaining Redeemable Preference Stock
(350,872 shares outstanding at December 31, 2000) during March 2001. The net
cash impact of the redemption on KACC was only approximately $5.5 because
approximately $12.0 of the total redemption amount of $17.5 had previously been
funded into redemption funds.

12.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Impact of Reorganization Proceedings. During the pendency of the Cases,
substantially all pending litigation, except certain environmental claims and
litigation, against the Debtors is stayed. Generally, claims against a Debtor
arising from actions or omissions prior to its Filing Date will be settled in
connection with the plan of reorganization.

Commitments. KACC has a variety of financial commitments, including purchase
agreements, tolling arrangements, forward foreign exchange and forward sales
contracts (see Note 13), letters of credit, and guarantees. Such purchase
agreements and tolling arrangements include long-term agreements for the
purchase and tolling of bauxite into alumina in Australia by QAL. These
obligations are scheduled to expire in 2008. Under the agreements, KACC is
unconditionally obligated to pay its proportional share of debt, operating
costs, and certain other costs of QAL. KACC's share of the aggregate minimum
amount of required future principal payments at December 31, 2002, is $49.0
which matures as follows: $32.0 in 2003 and $17.0 in 2006. During July 2002,
KACC made payments of approximately $29.5 to QAL to fund KACC's share of QAL's
scheduled debt maturities. KACC's share of payments, including operating costs
and certain other expenses under the agreements, has ranged between $95.0 -
$103.0 over the past three years. KACC also has agreements to supply alumina to
and to purchase aluminum from Anglesey.

Minimum rental commitments under operating leases at December 31, 2002, are as
follows: years ending December 31, 2003 - $15.2; 2004 - $6.2; 2005 - $5.4; 2006
- $3.1; 2007 - $2.4; thereafter - $3.7. Pursuant to the Code, the Debtors may
elect to reject or assume unexpired pre-petition leases. At this time, no
decisions have been made as to which significant leases will be accepted or
rejected (see Note 1).

Rental expenses were $38.3, $41.0 and $42.5, for the years ended December 31,
2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

KACC has a long-term liability, net of estimated subleases income (included in
Long-term liabilities), on the Kaiser Center office complex in Oakland,
California, in which KACC has not maintained offices for a number of years, but
for which it is responsible for lease payments as master tenant through 2008
under a sale-and-leaseback agreement. During 2000, KACC reduced its net lease
obligation by $17.0 (see Note 2) to reflect new third-party sublease agreements
which resulted in occupancy and lease rates above those previously projected. In
October 2002, the Company entered into a contract to sell its interests in the
office complex. As the contract amount was less than the asset's net carrying
value (included in Other assets), the Company recorded a non-cash impairment
charge in 2002 of approximately $20.0 (which amount was reflected in
Non-recurring operating charges (benefits), net - see Note 6). The sale was
approved by the Court in February 2003 and closed in March 2003. Net cash
proceeds were approximately $61.0.

Environmental Contingencies. The Company and KACC are subject to a number of
environmental laws, to fines or penalties assessed for alleged breaches of the
environmental laws, and to claims and litigation based upon such laws. KACC
currently is subject to a number of claims under the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended by the Superfund
Amendments Reauthorization Act of 1986 ("CERCLA"), and, along with certain other
entities, has been named as a potentially responsible party for remedial costs
at certain third-party sites listed on the National Priorities List under
CERCLA.

Based on the Company's evaluation of these and other environmental matters, the
Company has established environmental accruals, primarily related to potential
solid waste disposal and soil and groundwater remediation matters. During the
year ended December 31, 2001, KACC's ongoing assessment process resulted in KACC
recording charges of $13.5 included in Other income (expense) - see Note 2) to
increase its environmental accrual. Additionally, KACC's environmental accruals
were increased during the year ended December 31, 2001, by approximately $6.0 in
connection with purchase of certain property. The following table presents the
changes in such accruals, which are primarily included in Long-term liabilities,
for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000:

                                                         2002        2001       2000

(1)  As of December 31, 2002, $21.7 of the environmental accrual was included in
     Liabilities subject to compromise (see Note 1) and the balance was included
     in Long-term liabilities. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the
     environmental accrual was primarily included in Long-term liabilities.

These environmental accruals represent the Company's estimate of costs
reasonably expected to be incurred based on presently enacted laws and
regulations, currently available facts, existing technology, and the Company's
assessment of the likely remediation action to be taken. The Company expects
that these remediation actions will be taken over the next several years and
estimates that annual expenditures to be charged to these environmental accruals
will be approximately $.6 to $12.3 for the years 2003 through 2007 and an
aggregate of approximately $33.3 thereafter.

As additional facts are developed and definitive remediation plans and necessary
regulatory approvals for implementation of remediation are established or
alternative technologies are developed, changes in these and other factors may
result in actual costs exceeding the current environmental accruals. The Company
believes that it is reasonably possible that costs associated with these
environmental matters may exceed current accruals by amounts that could range,
in the aggregate, up to an estimated $30.0. As the resolution of these matters
is subject to further regulatory review and approval, no specific assurance can
be given as to when the factors upon which a substantial portion of this
estimate is based can be expected to be resolved. However, the Company is
currently working to resolve certain of these matters.

The Company believes that KACC has insurance coverage available to recover
certain incurred and future environmental costs and is pursuing claims in this
regard. However, no amounts have been accrued in the financial statements with
respect to such potential recoveries.

While uncertainties are inherent in the final outcome of these environmental
matters, and it is presently impossible to determine the actual costs that
ultimately may be incurred, management currently believes that the resolution of
such uncertainties should not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Asbestos Contingencies. KACC has been one of many defendants in a number of
lawsuits, some of which involve claims of multiple persons, in which the
plaintiffs allege that certain of their injuries were caused by, among other
things, exposure to asbestos during, and as a result of, their employment or
association with KACC or exposure to products containing asbestos produced or
sold by KACC. The lawsuits generally relate to products KACC has not sold for
more than 20 years. The lawsuits are currently stayed by the Cases.

The following table presents the changes in number of such claims pending for
the years ended December 31, 2002 (through the initial Filing Date), 2001 and
2000.

                                                                                  January 1, 2002          Year Ended

                                                                                     February 12,    ----------------------

                                                                              -------------------    ---------     --------
Number of claims at end of period                                                        112,000      112,800       110,800
                                                                              ===================    =========     ========

Due to the Cases, holders of asbestos claims are stayed from continuing to
prosecute pending litigation and from commencing new lawsuits against the
Debtors. However, during the pendency of the Cases, KACC expects additional
asbestos claims will be filed as part of the claims process. A separate
creditors' committee representing the interests of the asbestos claimants has
been appointed. The Debtors' obligations with respect to present and future
asbestos claims will be resolved pursuant to a plan of reorganization.

The Company maintains a liability for estimated asbestos-related costs for
claims filed to date and an estimate of claims to be filed through 2011. At
December 31, 2002, the balance of such accrual was $610.1, all of which was
included in Liabilities subject to compromise (see Note 1). The Company's
estimate is based on the Company's view, at each balance sheet date, of the
current and anticipated number of asbestos-related claims, the timing and
amounts of asbestos-related payments, the status of ongoing litigation and
settlement initiatives, and the advice of Wharton Levin Ehrmantraut & Klein,
P.A., with respect to the current state of the law related to asbestos claims.
However, there are inherent uncertainties involved in estimating
asbestos-related costs and the Company's actual costs could exceed the Company's
estimates due to changes in facts and circumstances after the date of each
estimate. Further, while the Company does not presently believe there is a
reasonable basis for estimating asbestos-related costs beyond 2011 and,
accordingly, no accrual has been recorded for any costs which may be incurred
beyond 2011, the Company expects that the plan of reorganization process may
require an estimation of KACC's entire asbestos-related liability, which may go
beyond 2011, and that such costs could be substantial.

The Company believes that KACC has insurance coverage available to recover a
substantial portion of its asbestos-related costs. Although the Company has
settled asbestos-related coverage matters with certain of its insurance
carriers, other carriers have not yet agreed to settlements and disputes with
carriers exist. The timing and amount of future recoveries from these insurance
carriers will depend on the pendency of the Cases and on the resolution of any
disputes regarding coverage under the applicable insurance policies. The Company
believes that substantial recoveries from the insurance carriers are probable
and additional amounts may be recoverable in the future if additional claims are
added. The Company reached this conclusion after considering its prior
insurance-related recoveries in respect of asbestos-related claims, existing
insurance policies, and the advice of Heller Ehrman White & McAuliffe LLP with
respect to applicable insurance coverage law relating to the terms and
conditions of those policies. During 2000, KACC filed suit in San Francisco
Superior Court against a group of its insurers, which suit was thereafter split
into two related actions. Additional insurers were added to the litigation in
2000 and 2002. During October 2001, the court ruled favorably on a number of
policy interpretation issues, one of which was affirmed in February 2002 by an
intermediate appellate court in response to a petition from the insurers. The
rulings did not result in any changes to the Company's estimates of its current
or future asbestos-related insurance recoveries. The trial court is scheduled to
decide certain policy interpretation issues in Spring 2003 and may hear
additional issues from time to time. Given the expected significance of probable
future asbestos-related payments, the receipt of timely and appropriate payments
from its insurers is critical to a successful plan of reorganization and KACC's
long-term liquidity.

The following tables present historical information regarding KACC's
asbestos-related balances and cash flows:

                                                                              December 31,
                                                                    --------------------------------

                                                                    $       126.1     $       120.1

(1)  The asbestos-related receivable was determined on the same basis as the
     asbestos-related cost accrual. However, no assurances can be given that
     KACC will be able to project similar recovery percentages for future
     asbestos-related claims or that the amounts related to future
     asbestos-related claims will not exceed KACC's aggregate insurance
     coverage. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, $24.7 and $33.0, respectively,
     of the receivable amounts relate to costs paid. The remaining receivable
     amounts relate to costs that are expected to be paid by KACC in the future.

During the pendency of the Cases, all asbestos litigation is stayed. As a
result, the Company does not expect to make any asbestos payments in the near
term. Despite the Cases, the Company continues to pursue insurance collections
in respect of asbestos-related amounts paid prior to its Filing Date.

Management continues to monitor claims activity, the status of lawsuits
(including settlement initiatives), legislative developments, and costs incurred
in order to ascertain whether an adjustment to the existing accruals should be
made to the extent that historical experience may differ significantly from the
Company's underlying assumptions. This process resulted in the Company
reflecting charges of $57.2 and $43.0 (included in Other income(expense) - see
Note 2) in the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, for
asbestos-related claims, net of expected insurance recoveries, based on recent
cost and other trends experienced by KACC and other companies. Additional
asbestos-related claims are likely to be asserted as a part of the Chapter 11
process. Management cannot reasonably predict the ultimate number of such claims
or the amount of the associated liability. However, it is likely that such
amounts could exceed, perhaps significantly, the liability amounts reflected in
the Company's consolidated financial statements, which (as previously stated) is
only reflective of an estimate of claims through 2011. KACC's obligations in
respect of the currently pending and future asbestos-related claims will
ultimately be determined (and resolved) as a part of the overall Chapter 11
proceedings. It is anticipated that resolution of these matters will be a
lengthy process. Management will continue to periodically reassess its
asbestos-related liabilities and estimated insurance recoveries as the Cases
proceed. However, absent unanticipated developments such as asbestos-related
legislation, material developments in other asbestos-related proceedings or in
the Company's or KACC's Chapter 11 proceedings, it is not anticipated that the
Company will have sufficient information to reevaluate its asbestos-related
obligations and estimated insurance recoveries until much later in the Cases.
Any adjustments ultimately deemed to be required as a result of the reevaluation
of KACC's asbestos-related liabilities or estimated insurance recoveries could
have a material impact on the Company's future financial statements.

Labor Matters. In connection with the USWA strike and subsequent lock-out by
KACC, which was settled in September 2000, certain allegations of unfair labor
practices ("ULPs") were filed with the National Labor Relations Board ("NLRB")
by the USWA. As previously disclosed, KACC has responded to all such allegations
and believes that they were without merit. Twenty-two of twenty-four allegations
of ULPs previously brought against KACC by the USWA have been dismissed. A trial
before an administrative law judge for the two remaining allegations concluded
in September 2001. In May 2002, the administrative law judge ruled against KACC
in respect of the two remaining ULP allegations and recommended that the NLRB
award back wages, plus interest, less any earnings of the workers during the
period of the lockout. The administrative law judge's ruling did not contain any
specific amount of proposed award and is not self-executing. The USWA has filed
a proof of claim for $240.0 in the Cases in respect of this matter. The NLRB
also filed a proof of claim in respect of this matter. The NLRB claim was for
$117.0, including interest of approximately $18.0. Depending on the ultimate
amount of any interest due and amount of offsetting employee earnings and other
factors, if the USWA ultimately were to prevail it is possible that the amount
of the award could exceed $100.0. It is also possible that the Company may
ultimately prevail on appeal and that no loss will occur.

The Company continues to believe that the allegations are without merit and will
vigorously defend its position. KACC has appealed the ruling of the
administrative law judge to the full NLRB. The general counsel of NLRB and the
USWA have cross-appealed. Any outcome from the NLRB appeal would be subject to
additional appeals in a United States Circuit Court of Appeals by the general
counsel of the NLRB, the USWA or KACC. This process could take several years.
Because the Company believes that it may prevail in the appeals process, the
Company has not recognized a charge in response to the adverse ruling. However,
it is possible that, if the Company's appeal(s) are not ultimately successful, a
charge in respect of this matter may be required in one or more future periods
and the amount of such charge(s) could be significant.

This matter is not currently stayed by the Cases. However, as previously stated,
seeing this matter to its ultimate outcome could take several years. Further,
any amounts ultimately determined by a court to be payable in this matter will
be dealt with in the overall context of the Debtors' plan of reorganization and
will be subject to compromise. Accordingly, any payments that may ultimately be
required in respect of this matter would only be paid upon or after the
Company's emergence from the Cases.

Dispute with MAXXAM. In March 2002, MAXXAM filed a declaratory action with the
Court asking the Court to find that it had no further obligations to Debtors
under certain tax allocation agreements discussed in Note 9. At December 31,
2001, the Company had a receivable from MAXXAM of $35.0 (included in Other
Assets) outstanding under the tax allocation agreement in respect to various tax
contingencies in an equal amount (reflected in Long-term liabilities). As this
matter to which the MAXXAM receivable has now been resolved with no amounts
coming due from MAXXAM, both the receivable and the equal and offsetting payable
were reversed in December 2002. The resolution between MAXXAM and KACC was
approved by the Court in February 2003.

Other Contingencies. The Company or KACC is involved in various other claims,
lawsuits, and other proceedings relating to a wide variety of matters related to
past or present operations. While uncertainties are inherent in the final
outcome of such matters, and it is presently impossible to determine the actual
costs that ultimately may be incurred, management currently believes that the
resolution of such uncertainties and the incurrence of such costs should not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,
results of operations, or liquidity.

13.   DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RELATED HEDGING PROGRAMS

In conducting its business, KACC uses various instruments, including forward
contracts and options, to manage the risks arising from fluctuations in aluminum
prices, energy prices and exchange rates. KACC enters into hedging transactions
from time to time to limit its exposure resulting from (1) its anticipated sales
of alumina, primary aluminum, and fabricated aluminum products, net of expected
purchase costs for items that fluctuate with aluminum prices, (2) the energy
price risk from fluctuating prices for natural gas, fuel oil and diesel oil used
in its production process, and (3) foreign currency requirements with respect to
its cash commitments with foreign subsidiaries and affiliates. As KACC's hedging
activities are generally designed to lock-in a specified price or range of
prices, gains or losses on the derivative contracts utilized in the hedging
activities (except the impact of those contracts discussed below which have been
marked to market) generally offset at least a portion of any losses or gains,
respectively, on the transactions being hedged.

2002. Because the agreements underlying KACC's hedging positions provided that
the counterparties to the hedging contracts could liquidate KACC's hedging
positions if KACC filed for reorganization, KACC chose to liquidate these
positions in advance of the Filing Date. Proceeds from the liquidation totaled
approximately $42.2. A net gain of $23.3 associated with these liquidated
positions was deferred and is being recognized over the period during which the
underlying transactions to which the hedges related are expected to occur. The
net gain upon liquidation consisted of: gains of $30.2 for aluminum contracts
and losses of $5.0 for Australian dollars and $1.9 for energy contracts. As of
December 31, 2002, the remaining unamortized amount was approximately a net loss
of $1.3.

During December 2002 and the first quarter of 2003, the Company entered into
hedging transactions (included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets)
with respect to a portion of its 2003 fuel oil requirements. As of January 31,
2003, KACC held option contracts which cap the price that KACC would have to pay
for 1.8 million barrels of fuel oil in 2003. This amount of fuel oil represents
substantially all of KACC's exposure to fuel oil requirements in the second half
of 2003 and 40% of KACC's exposure to fuel oil requirements in the first half of
2003. The carrying/market value of the option contracts was $.9 at December 31,
2002.

The Company anticipates that, subject to prevailing economic conditions, it may
enter into additional hedging transactions with respect to primary aluminum
prices, natural gas and fuel oil prices and foreign currency values to protect
the interests of its constituents. However, no assurance can be given as to when
or if the Company will enter into such additional hedging activities.

As of December 31, 2002, KACC had sold forward substantially all of the alumina
available to it in excess of its projected internal smelting requirements for
2003 and 2004, respectively, at prices indexed to future prices of primary
aluminum.

2001 and 2000. During the first quarter of 2001, the Company recorded a
mark-to-market benefit of $6.8 (included in Other income (expense)) related to
the application of SFAS No. 133. However, starting in the second quarter of
2001, the income statement impact of mark-to-market changes was essentially
eliminated as unrealized gains or losses resulting from changes in the value of
these hedges began being recorded in Other comprehensive income (see Note 2)
based on changes in SFAS No. 133 enacted in April 2001.

During late 1999 and early 2000, KACC entered into certain aluminum contracts
with a counterparty. While the Company believed that the transactions were
consistent with its stated hedging objectives, these positions did not qualify
for treatment as a "hedge" under accounting guidelines. Accordingly, the
positions were marked-to-market each period. A recap of mark-to-market pre-tax
gains (losses) for these positions, together with the amount discussed in the
paragraph above, is provided in Note 2. During the fourth quarter of 2001, KACC
liquidated all of the remaining positions. This resulted in the recognition of
approximately $3.3 of additional mark-to-market income during 2001.

14.  KEY EMPLOYEE RETENTION PROGRAM

In June 2002, the Company adopted a key employee retention program (the "KERP"),
which was approved by the Court in September 2002. The KERP is a comprehensive
program that is designed to provide financial incentives sufficient to retain
certain key employees during the Cases. The KERP includes six key elements: a
retention plan, a severance plan, a change in control plan, a completion
incentive plan, the continuation for certain participants of an existing
supplemental employee retirement plan ("SERP") and a long-term incentive plan.
The retention plan is expected to have a total cost of up to approximately $7.3
per year. The total cost of the KERP will vary depending on the level of
continuing participation in each period. Under the KERP, retention payments
commenced in September 2002 and will be paid every six months through March 31,
2004, except that 50% of the amounts payable to certain senior officers will be
withheld until the Debtors emerge from the Cases or as otherwise agreed pursuant
to the KERP. The severance and change in control plans, which are similar to the
provisions of previous arrangements that existed for certain key employees,
generally provide for severance payments of between six months and three years
of salary and certain benefits, depending on the facts and circumstances and the
level of employee involved. The completion incentive plan generally provides for
payments of up to an aggregate of approximately $1.2 to certain senior officers
provided that the Debtors emerge from the Cases in 30 months or less from the
initial Filing Date. If the Debtors emerge from the Cases after 30 months from
the initial Filing Date, the amount of the payments will be reduced accordingly.
The SERP generally provides additional non-qualified pension benefits for
certain active employees at the time that the KERP was approved, who would
suffer a loss of benefits based on Internal Revenue Code limitations, so long as
such employees are not subsequently terminated for cause or voluntarily
terminate prior to reaching their retirement age. The long-term incentive plan
generally provides for incentive awards to key employees based on an annual cost
reduction target. Payment of such awards generally will be made: (a) 50% when
the Debtors emerge from the Cases and (b) 50% one year from the date the Debtors
emerge from the Cases. During 2002, the Company has recorded charges of $5.1, of
which $1.5 were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2002 (included in Selling,
administrative, research and development, and general), related to the KERP.

15.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In January 2003, the Court approved the sale of the Tacoma facility to the Port
of Tacoma (the "Port") for $12.1 and the assumption by the Port of all
environmental remediation obligations. The sale closed in February 2003. An
additional $4.0 of proceeds are being held in escrow pending the resolution of
certain environmental and other issues.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144,
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets ("SFAS No. 144"),
the operations of the Tacoma facility will be reported in discontinued
operations in the Company's future financial statements. Income statement
information for the Tacoma facility for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001

During January 2003, as a result of reduced power availability from the Volta
River Authority ("VRA"), the Company's 90% owned Volta Aluminum Company Limited
("Valco") curtailed two of its three operating potlines. In connection with such
curtailments, $5.5 of end-of-service benefits were paid resulting in a $3.2
charge to earnings in January 2003. Additional curtailments and end-of-service
payments and charges are possible.

During March 2003, the Company paid approximately $22.0 in settlement of certain
foreign tax matters in respect of a number of prior periods. Also, as more fully
discussed in Note 12, during March 2003, the Company completed the sale of its
interests in an office building complex in Oakland, California, netting
approximately $61.0 in sale proceeds.

16.  SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL AREA INFORMATION

The Company's operations are located in many foreign countries, including
Australia, Canada, Ghana, Jamaica, and the United Kingdom. Foreign operations in
general may be more vulnerable than domestic operations due to a variety of
political and other risks. Sales and transfers among geographic areas are made
on a basis intended to reflect the market value of products.

The Company's operations are organized and managed by product type. The Company
operations include four operating segments of the aluminum industry and its
commodities marketing and corporate segments. The aluminum industry segments
include: Alumina and bauxite, Primary aluminum, Flat-rolled products and
Engineered products. The Alumina and bauxite business unit's principal products
are smelter grade alumina and chemical grade alumina hydrate, a value-added
product, for which the Company receives a premium over smelter grade market
prices. The Primary aluminum business unit produces commodity grade products as
well as value-added products such as rod and billet, for which the Company
receives a premium over normal commodity market prices. The Flat-rolled products
group sells value-added products such as heat treat aluminum sheet and plate
which are used in the aerospace and general engineering markets. The Engineered
products business unit serves a wide range of industrial segments including the
automotive, distribution, aerospace and general engineering markets. The Company
uses a portion of its bauxite, alumina and primary aluminum production for
additional processing at its downstream facilities. Transfers between business
units are made at estimated market prices. The Commodities marketing segment
includes the results of KACC's alumina and aluminum hedging activities (see Note
13). The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
Note 2. Business unit results are evaluated internally by management before any
allocation of corporate overhead and without any charge for income taxes,
interest expense or non-recurring charges.

Financial information by operating segment at December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999

(1)  Beginning in the first quarter of 2001, as a result of the continuing
     curtailment of KACC's Northwest smelters, the Flat-rolled products business
     unit began purchasing its own primary aluminum rather than relying on the
     Primary aluminum business unit to supply its aluminum requirements through
     production or third party purchases. The Engineered products business unit
     was already responsible for purchasing the majority of its primary aluminum
     requirements.
(2)  Net sales in 2002 primarily represent partial recognition of deferred gains
     from hedges closed prior to the commencement of the Cases (see Note 13).
     Net sales in 2001 and 2000 represent net settlements with counterparties
     for maturing derivative positions.
(3)  Operating results for 2002 include $4.4 of charges resulting from an
     increase in the allowance for doubtful receivables and a LIFO inventory
     charge of $.5. Operating results for 2001 include abnormal Gramercy-related
     start-up and litigation costs, net of business interruption-related
     insurance accruals, of $34.8 and a LIFO inventory charge of $3.7.
(4)  Operating results for 2002 include LIFO inventory charges of: Primary
     Aluminum - $2.1, Flat-Rolled Products - $2.0 and Engineered Products -
     $1.5.
(5)  Operating results for 2001 include LIFO inventory charges of: Flat-Rolled
     Products - $3.0 and Engineered Products - $1.5.
(6)  Operating results for 2002 include special pension charges of $24.1 and key
     employee retention program charges of $5.1.

(1)     Quarterly results include a number of non-recurring and unusual items
        that may cause an individual quarter's results not to be indicative of
        the underlying operating performance. See the applicable quarterly
        report on Form 10-Q for a recap of such items.
(2)     Includes the following pre-tax items: non-recurring impairment charges
        of $215.4, non-recurring restructuring charges of $2.6 and LIFO
        inventory charges of $3.1 (see Notes 2 and 6 of Notes to Consolidated
        Financial Statements). Excluding these charges, results would have been
        a basic loss per share of approximately $.62.
(3)     Includes increase in valuation allowances for net deferred income tax
        assets of $505.4 and the following pre-tax items: charges for
        restructuring of $8.2, abnormal Gramercy start-up and other costs of
        $16.5, contract labor costs related to smelter curtailment of $9.4,
        impairment charges related to Trentwood equipment of $17.7 and certain
        other net non-recurring charges totaling $9.6 (see Notes 2 and 6 of
        Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Excluding these items,
        results would have been basic loss per share of approximately $.43.
(4)     Includes the following pre-tax items: a gain of $103.2 from the sale of
        power offset by a non-cash impairment loss of approximately $33.0, a
        charge of $26.2 for operating profit foregone as a result of power sales
        and certain other net non-operating charges totaling $10.9 (see Notes 2
        and 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Excluding these
        items, but giving effect to operating profit foregone as a result of
        these power sales, results would have been basic loss per share of
        approximately $.19.
(5)     Earnings (loss) per share and market price may not be meaningful
        because, as part of a plan of reorganization, it is likely that the
        interests of the Company's existing stockholders will be diluted or
        cancelled.
