          removal.                                                                    
               The class B stockholders were entitled to appoint no more              
          than two observers at each Alumax board meeting.  Notices of                
          meetings of the Alumax board were sent to those observers who               
          were permitted to attend and participate in all discussions, but            
          not vote, at those meetings.                                                
               Throughout any period during which any Alumax class C common           
          stock was outstanding, (1) each of the two class B directors had            
          one vote and each of the four class C directors had two votes on            
          each matter submitted to the Alumax board for a vote, and (2) a             
          majority of the total number of directors constituted a quorum.             
          Throughout that period, at each meeting of the Alumax board, the            
          Alumax directors were entitled to vote in the aggregate (director           
          aggregate voting requirement), and not by class, on all matters             
          submitted to them (director nonrestricted matters) except certain           
          director restricted matters discussed below, and the affirmative            
          vote of a majority of votes cast on the director nonrestricted              
          matters by the directors present and voting at a meeting at which           
          a quorum was present and voting was required to effect any board            
          action.  However, (1) any board action on any director                      
          nonrestricted matter was not to take effect for 14 calendar days            
          if it was taken over the express objection of any class B direc-            
          tor, and (2) any such board action was not to take effect at all            
          if, as a result of that class B director's objection and certain            
          other events discussed below, shares of the Alumax class C common
