STATEMENT UNDER OATH OF PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND
PRINCIPAL FINANCIAL OFFICER REGARDING FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES
RELATING TO EXCHANGE ACT FILINGS
I, David H. Hannah, state and attest that:
(1) To the best of my knowledge, based upon a review of the covered reports
of Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co., and, except as corrected or
supplemented in a subsequent covered report:
- no covered report contained an untrue statement of a material
fact as of the end of the period covered by such report (or in
the case of a report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy
materials, as of the date on which it was filed); and
- no covered report omitted to state a material fact necessary
to make the statements in the covered report, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading as of
the end of the period covered by such report (or in the case
of a report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy materials, as of
the date on which it was filed).
(2) I have reviewed the contents of this statement with the Company's audit
committee and the independent members of the Company's board of
directors.
(3) In this statement under oath, each of the following, if filed on or
before the date of this statement, is a "covered report":
- Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by Reliance Steel & Aluminum
Co. for the year ended December 31, 2001;
- all reports on Form 10-Q, all reports on Form 8-K and all
definitive proxy materials of Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co.
filed with the Commission subsequent to the filing of the Form
10-K identified above; and
- any amendments to any of the forgoing.
