6 6 Production Overview Focused on developing vertical integration throughout the company

7 7 Consolidated Sales Analysis Revenues estimated at US$4.1 bln in 2001 Over 80% of revenues derived from exports Source: Company estimates By productBy region

8 8 Fabricated Product Sales Dominant position at the domestic aluminium product market Successful marketing stories in beverage cans and foil Exports still amount to about 50% of fabricated aluminium sales (mainly in semis) Source: Company estimates, 2001 RUSAL’s share on the domestic market Rolled > 60% Foil and packaging  30% Beverage cans > 60% Construction  30%

9 9 RUSAL builds corporate strategy based on its key strengths and weaknesses in the global industry RUSAL’s Competitive Position Access to inexpensive Siberian hydro power energy (RUSAL’s shareholders control twice as much electricity as consumed by RUSAL) Strong presence at the domestic aluminium product market Young and aggressive management Strengths Unbalanced production structure (shortage of raw materials) Relatively low labour productivity Negative perception of the Russia’s aluminium industry by the international business community Weaknesses

10 10 Strengthen raw materials base Exploit competitive advantages through expanding primary aluminium capacity Expand margins through raising value added product output and improved marketing Key Strategic Objectives - Capacity Management  By 2006, RUSAL intends to produce at own facilities up to 100% of the required alumina and up to 50% of the required bauxite via -expansion of existing alumina capacity by up to 30% -acquisition and building of new capacity in CIS, Guinea, etc. -potential strategic partnerships to develop large scale greenfield projects (potentially including Dian Dian project)  Potential capacity expansion at Sayansk Smelter by 65%  Other projects in Eastern Siberia and other Russian regions under consideration  Increase production of alloys and fabricated products at 20% and 10% annual rate respectively  Increase sales to end users and regional traders versus international traders from 40% in 2001 to 70% in 2003

11 11 Control costs to be one of the lowest cost producers in the world Meet international standards of environmental management and quality control Key Strategic Objectives - Cost Management  Securing beneficial power tariffs via cost optimisation at power producers controlled by RUSAL shareholders and active participation in the restructuring of the Russian power sector  Gradual reduction of overall headcount to increase productivity  Further optimisation of product flows (including exploitation of river roots)  Participation in the restructuring of the railway industry and establishing own expeditor company  Most production facilities ISO 9000-9002 certified  Modernisation of existing capacities including -implementation of improved technology of “dry” anodes at Bratsk and Krasnoyarsk smelters -upgrade of rolling mills at Samara Metallurgical Plant  International environmental certification for most production facilities -Rostar plant, one of the first Russia’s metal companies to receive ISO 14001 certificate
