Item 5.07.

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

(a) Alcoa Inc. (“Alcoa”) held a special meeting of shareholders on October 5, 2016.

(b) Set forth below are the results for each of the matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders. As of the August 3, 2016 record date for the special meeting, there were 1,315,379,801 shares of Alcoa common stock, par value of $1.00 per share (“Common Stock”), outstanding and entitled to vote. Of this amount, there were 1,075,430,156 shares of Common Stock represented in person or by proxy at the special meeting.

Item 1. The proposal to authorize Alcoa’s Board of Directors to effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, at a reverse stock split ratio of 1-for-3 (the “Reverse Stock Split”), was approved based upon the following votes:

 

For		Against		Abstentions
1,016,530,805		53,916,299		4,983,052

Item 2. The proposal to adopt a corresponding amendment (the “Articles of Amendment”) to Alcoa’s Articles of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split and to reduce proportionately the total number of shares of Common Stock that Alcoa is authorized to issue (the “Authorized Share Count Reduction”), was approved based upon the following votes:

 

For		Against		Abstentions
1,017,543,624		52,662,067		5,224,465

 

Item 8.01.

Other Events.

On October 5, 2016, Alcoa filed the Articles of Amendment with the Pennsylvania Department of State to make effective the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Count Reduction. The Articles of Amendment became effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on October 5, 2016 (the “Effective Time”).

At the Effective Time, each holder of Common Stock received, for every three shares of Common Stock held prior to the Effective Time, one share of Common Stock, except that no fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, each shareholder otherwise entitled to receive a fractional share is entitled to receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

The foregoing summary of the Articles of Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Articles of Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

At the market open on October 6, 2016, the Common Stock will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “AA,” but will be assigned a new CUSIP number (013817507) and will trade on a split-adjusted basis. At the Effective Time, the Authorized Share Count Reduction resulted in a reduction of the total number of shares of Common Stock that Alcoa is authorized to issue from 1,800,000,000 to 600,000,000.

On October 5, 2016, Alcoa issued a press release announcing shareholder approval and the completion of the Reverse Stock Split. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
