March 9, 2017

Dear Fellow Arconic Shareholder:

Elliott Associates, L.P. and Elliott International, L.P., together with their affiliates (collectively, “Elliott” or “we”), beneficially own an aggregate of 51,102,133 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Arconic Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (“Arconic” or the “Company”), and have additional economic exposure comparable to interest in an aggregate of 7,262,517 shares of Common Stock through derivative agreements, giving Elliott combined economic exposure in the Company of approximately 13.2%¹ of the shares of Common Stock outstanding, making us Arconic’s largest shareholder.

Elliott is an investment firm founded in 1977 that today manages approximately $32 billion of capital for both institutional and individual investors. Elliott is a multi-strategy firm active in debt, equities, commodities, currencies, and various other asset classes across a range of industries. Active equity investing is one of the firm’s core strengths, and Elliott’s approach to each such investment is based on extensive diligence, constructive engagement, and a strong preference for collaborative solutions. Elliott has a strong, long-term track record of working with companies in a variety of sectors to create long-term fundamental stakeholder value.

We have performed extensive due diligence on Arconic. We have spent many hundreds or thousands of hours speaking to independent experts, competitors of each business unit, customers, former employees, Wall Street analysts, and institutional and other investors. We also have engaged in discussions with Arconic’s management and board of directors (the “Board”) regarding the ways in which we believe the Company could improve operational performance, enhance the effectiveness of its capital allocation, strengthen investor communications, and establish improved corporate governance practices. Following Arconic’s response to these discussions, including the Board’s continued support of the leadership of the Company’s current Chairman and CEO Dr. Klaus Kleinfeld, our resulting conclusion is clear and unambiguous: immediate change in leadership is needed for Arconic to reliably and sustainably create shareholder value.

We believe that Arconic has enormous potential, possessing a world-class asset base and high-quality workforce, but the Company is being held back by management leadership ill-suited to the key tasks ahead – disciplined operating execution and effective capital allocation. We have urged the Board to do what is clearly in the best interest of Arconic’s stakeholders and begin searching for Dr. Kleinfeld’s successor. However, thus far the Board, as currently composed, has been unwilling to take this logical step. As a result, we have nominated, and are seeking your support to elect at the Company’s 2017 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2017 Annual Meeting”), a slate of independent, highly qualified nominees (the “Nominees”) who, if elected, would constitute a minority of the Board. Each of the Nominees would bring substantial expertise and deep experience to the Board, and was selected specifically for his or her ability to empower the current Board to act on the enormous value-creation opportunity present at Arconic today.

The Company has a classified Board, which currently consists of 13 directors and is divided into three classes. Directors are elected for three-year terms. The terms of five directors serving on the Board expire at the 2017 Annual Meeting.

¹ Because the Company has not yet publicly disclosed how many shares of Common Stock were outstanding as of March 1, 2017, the record date for the Company’s 2017 annual meeting of shareholders, the percentage of ownership reported is based upon 440,535,657 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 23, 2017, as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2017.

NEWARCONIC.COM VOTE THE BLUE PROXY CARD 3

We are seeking to change a minority of the Board. Through the attached Proxy Statement, we are soliciting proxies to elect not only our four director nominees, but also the candidate who has been nominated by the Company other than Messrs. Hess, Kleinfeld and Tata and Ms. Alving. This gives shareholders the ability to vote for the total number of directors up for election at the 2017 Annual Meeting. The names, backgrounds and qualifications of the Company’s nominees, and other information about them, can be found in the Company’s proxy statement. There is no assurance that any of the Company’s nominees will serve as directors if our nominees are elected.

If elected, our nominees, subject to their fiduciary duties as directors, will seek to work with the other members of the Board to position Arconic to maximize shareholder value. However, our Nominees will constitute a minority on the Board and there can be no guarantee that our Nominees will be able to implement the actions that they believe are necessary to do so, including replacing Dr. Kleinfeld as the Company’s CEO and selecting a successor.

We urge you to carefully consider the information contained in the attached Proxy Statement and then support our efforts by signing, dating and returning the enclosed BLUE proxy card today. The attached Proxy Statement and the enclosed BLUE proxy card are first being furnished to the shareholders on or about March 9, 2017.

If you have already voted for the incumbent management slate, you have every right to change your vote by signing, dating and returning a later dated proxy.

If you have any questions or require any assistance with your vote, please contact Okapi Partners LLC, which is assisting us, at its address and toll-free numbers listed below.

PROXY STATEMENT
OF
ELLIOTT ASSOCIATES, L.P.
ELLIOTT INTERNATIONAL, L.P.

PLEASE SIGN, DATE AND MAIL THE ENCLOSED BLUE PROXY CARD TODAY

Elliott Associates, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Elliott Associates”), Elliott International, L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (“Elliott International”), together with the other participants named herein (collectively, “Elliott”), are furnishing this proxy statement (“Proxy Statement”) and accompanying BLUE proxy card to holders of common stock, par value $1.00 per share (“Common Stock”), of Arconic Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (“Arconic” or the “Company”), in connection with the solicitation of proxies in connection with the Company’s 2017 annual meeting of shareholders (including any and all adjournments, postponements, continuations or reschedulings thereof, or any other meeting of shareholders held in lieu thereof, the “2017 Annual Meeting”). The 2017 Annual Meeting will be held on a date, and at a time and place, to be determined by the Company.²

We are seeking to change a minority of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) because we believe that a change of leadership is required to improve performance at Arconic. We are presenting a slate of four independent, highly qualified nominees for election to the Board, each of whom would bring substantial expertise and deep experience to the Board, and was selected specifically for his or her ability to empower the current Board to act on the enormous value-creation opportunity present at Arconic today. We are seeking your support at the 2017 Annual Meeting for the following:

to elect Elliott’s four director nominees, Christopher L. Ayers, Elmer L Doty, Bernd F. Kessler and Patrice E. Merrin (collectively, the “Nominees”), to the Board to serve three-year terms expiring at the 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified;

to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2017;

to vote, on an advisory basis, on executive compensation;

to vote, on an advisory basis, on the frequency of the executive compensation vote;

to approve an amendment of the Articles of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to eliminate the supermajority voting requirement in the Charter regarding amending Article SEVENTH (fair price protection);

to approve an amendment of the Charter to eliminate the supermajority voting requirement in the Charter regarding amending Article EIGHTH (director elections);

to approve an amendment of the Charter to eliminate the supermajority voting requirement in the Charter relating to the removal of directors;

to approve an amendment of the Charter to eliminate the classification of the Board; and

to vote on a shareholder proposal, if properly presented at the 2017 Annual Meeting.

² The Company has not yet publicly disclosed the date, time and place of the 2017 Annual Meeting. Once the Company publicly discloses such date, time and place, Elliott intends to supplement this Proxy Statement with such information and file revised definitive materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NEWARCONIC.COM VOTE THE BLUE PROXY CARD 6

We believe that the terms of five directors serving on the Board expire at the 2017 Annual Meeting. This Proxy Statement is soliciting proxies to elect not only our four director nominees, but also the candidate who has been nominated by the Company other than Messrs. Hess, Kleinfeld and Tata and Ms. Alving. This gives shareholders the ability to vote for the total number of directors up for election at the 2017 Annual Meeting.

As of the date hereof, Elliott Associates, Elliott International and the other Participants (as defined below) (other than Mr. Lawson) collectively own 51,102,233 shares of Common Stock (the “Elliott Group Shares”). While we currently intend to vote all of the Elliott Group Shares in favor of the election of the Nominees, we reserve the right to vote some or all of the Elliott Group Shares for some or all of the Company’s director nominees, as we see fit, in order to achieve a Board composition that we believe is in the best interest of all shareholders. We would only intend to vote some or all of the Elliott Group Shares for some or all of the Company’s director nominees in a different manner than we are otherwise recommending in the event it were to become apparent to us, based on the projected voting results at such time, that less than all of the Nominees would be elected at the 2017 Annual Meeting and that by voting the Elliott Group Shares we could help elect the Company nominees that we believe are the most qualified to serve as directors and thus help achieve a Board composition that we believe is in the best interest of all shareholders. Shareholders should understand, however, that all shares of Common Stock represented by the enclosed BLUE proxy card will be voted at the 2017 Annual Meeting as marked.

The Company has set the close of business on March 1, 2017 as the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to vote at the 2017 Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”). Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each of the proposals to be voted on. The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 390 Park Avenue, New York, New York, 10022. The Company has not yet publicly disclosed how many shares of Common Stock were outstanding as of the Record Date. As of February 23, 2017, there were 440,535,657 shares of Common Stock outstanding, as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2017. Once the Company publicly discloses the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date, Elliott intends to supplement this Proxy Statement with such information and file revised definitive materials with the SEC.

THIS SOLICITATION IS BEING MADE BY ELLIOTT AND NOT ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OR MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY.

Elliott URGES YOU TO SIGN, DATE AND RETURN THE BLUE PROXY CARD IN FAVOR OF THE ELECTION OF THE NOMINEES.

IF YOU HAVE ALREADY SENT A WHITE PROXY CARD FURNISHED BY COMPANY MANAGEMENT OR THE BOARD, YOU MAY REVOKE THAT PROXY AND VOTE ON EACH OF THE PROPOSALS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT BY SIGNING, DATING AND RETURNING THE ENCLOSED BLUE PROXY CARD. THE LATEST DATED PROXY IS THE ONLY ONE THAT COUNTS. ANY PROXY MAY BE REVOKED AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THE 2017 ANNUAL MEETING BY DELIVERING A WRITTEN NOTICE OF REVOCATION OR A LATER DATED PROXY FOR THE 2017 ANNUAL MEETING OR BY VOTING IN PERSON AT THE 2017 ANNUAL MEETING.

IMPORTANT

Your vote is important, no matter how many or how few shares of Common Stock you own. Elliott urges you to sign, date, and return the enclosed BLUE proxy card today to vote FOR the election of the Nominees and in accordance with Elliott’s recommendations on the other proposals on the agenda for the 2017 Annual Meeting.

If your shares of Common Stock are registered in your own name, please sign and date the enclosed BLUE proxy card and return it to Elliott, c/o Okapi Partners LLC (“Okapi Partners”), in the enclosed postage-paid envelope today.

If your shares of Common Stock are held in a brokerage account or bank, you are considered the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock, and these proxy materials, together with a BLUE voting form, are being forwarded to you by your broker or bank. As a beneficial owner, you must instruct your broker, trustee or other representative how to vote. Your broker cannot vote your shares of Common Stock on your behalf without your instructions.

Depending upon your broker or custodian, you may be able to vote either by toll-free telephone or by the Internet. Please refer to the enclosed voting form for instructions on how to vote electronically. You may also vote by signing, dating and returning the enclosed voting form.

Since only your latest dated proxy card will count, we urge you not to return any proxy card you receive from the Company. Even if you return the WHITE management proxy card marked “withhold” as a protest against the incumbent directors, it will revoke any proxy card you may have previously sent to us. Remember, you can vote for our four Nominees only on our BLUE proxy card. So please make certain that the latest dated proxy card you return is the BLUE proxy card.

In addition to the election of directors, there are a series of other proposals being presented for shareholder approval at the 2017 Annual Meeting. Please see the sections entitled “Proposal No. 2: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm,” “Proposal No. 3: Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation,” “Proposal No. 4: Advisory Vote on Frequency of Executive Compensation Vote,” “Proposal No. 5: Eliminate Supermajority Voting Requirement in the Articles of Incorporation Regarding Amending Article SEVENTH (Fair Price Protection),” “Proposal No. 6: Eliminate Supermajority Voting Requirement in the Articles of Incorporation Regarding Amending Article EIGHTH (Director Elections),” “Proposal No. 7: Eliminate Supermajority Voting Requirement in Article EIGHTH of the Articles of Incorporation Relating to the Removal of Directors,” “Proposal No. 8: Eliminate the Classified Board Structure By Approving Amendments to the Articles of Incorporation,” and “Proposal No. 9: Shareholder Proposal” for more about each of these proposals and our recommendations for how you vote.

Table of Contents

Who are the Nominees?

We are proposing that our Nominees, Christopher L. Ayers, Elmer L Doty, Bernd F. Kessler and Patrice E. Merrin, be elected as directors of the Company to serve on the Board until the 2020 Annual Meeting, or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified.

Chris L. Ayers (Former President and CEO, WireCo WorldGroup, Inc.): Brings considerable industry expertise having been a former Company executive and former President of the PCC Forgings Division of Precision Castparts Corp., as well as a current director of Universal Stainless & Alloy Products, Inc. We believe that Mr. Ayers’ extensive experience in the specialty materials industry, including his previous executive service with the Company prior to its separation into two publicly traded companies, makes him well-qualified to serve on the Board.

Elmer L. Doty (Former President and CEO, Accudyne Industries LLC): Brings more than 40 years of leadership experience in heavy industry, including as Chief Executive Officer of Accudyne Industries LLC and Vought Aircraft Industries, Inc., and a senior executive of United Defense Industries, Inc. and FMC Corporation. We believe that Mr. Doty’s years of management experience as a senior executive and a deep knowledge of the aerospace and defense industries will be a valuable addition to the Board.

Bernd F. Kessler (Former CEO, SRTechnics AG): Brings valuable insights from a long career as an international business executive, including as a director of Polaris Industries, former President and CEO of MTU Maintenance and former executive at Honeywell International. We believe that Mr. Kessler’s significant operating and leadership experience with global businesses and his strong background in engineering, operational excellence and organizational development will make him a valuable addition to the Board.

Patrice E. Merrin (Former President and CEO, Luscar Ltd.): Brings valuable experience as an international business executive and corporate director who currently serves as a director for Stillwater Mining Company, Glencore plc, and Novadaq Technologies Inc. We believe that Ms. Merrin’s significant experience serving as a director of public companies and industry insights will make her a valuable addition to the Board.

Who is entitled to vote at the 2017 Annual Meeting and how many votes do you have?

The Company has set the close of business on March 1, 2017 as the Record Date for determining the shareholders entitled to vote at the 2017 Annual Meeting. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each of the proposals to be voted on.

Only shareholders of record on the Record Date will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the 2017 Annual Meeting. Shareholders who sell their shares of Common Stock before the Record Date (or acquire them without voting rights after the Record Date) may not vote such shares of Common Stock. Shareholders of record on the Record Date will retain their voting rights in connection with the 2017 Annual Meeting even if they sell such shares of Common Stock after the Record Date.

The Company has not yet publicly disclosed how many shares of Common Stock were outstanding as of the Record Date. As of February 23, 2017, there were 440,535,657 shares of Common Stock outstanding, as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2017. Once the Company publicly discloses the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date, Elliott intends to supplement this Proxy Statement with such information and file revised definitive materials with the SEC. According to the Company’s proxy statement, there are no other securities of the Company outstanding and entitled to vote at the 2017 Annual Meeting.

How do proxies work?

Elliott is asking you to appoint Geoffrey Sorbello, Austin Camporin and Steve Wolosky, and each of them, as your proxy holders to vote your shares of Common Stock at the 2017 Annual Meeting. You make this appointment by voting the enclosed BLUE proxy card or by using one of the voting methods described below. Giving us your proxy means you authorize the proxy holders to vote your shares at the 2017 Annual Meeting, according to the directions you provide. You may vote for all, some or none of our director candidates. Whether or not you are able to attend the 2017 Annual Meeting, you are urged to sign, date and return the enclosed BLUE proxy card. All

Table of Contents

valid proxies received prior to the 2017 Annual Meeting will be voted. If you specify a choice with respect to any item by marking the appropriate box on the proxy, the shares of Common Stock will be voted in accordance with that specification.

What is the difference between holding shares as a shareholder of record/registered shareholder and as a beneficial owner of shares?

If your shares of Common Stock are registered directly in your name with the Company’s transfer agent, you are considered a “shareholder of record” or a “registered shareholder” of those shares. If your shares are held in an account at a bank, brokerage firm or other similar organization, then you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name. In that case, you will receive the Company’s proxy materials from the bank, brokerage firm or other similar organization holding your account and, as a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank, brokerage firm or similar organization as to how to vote the shares held in your account.

How do you attend the 2017 Annual Meeting?

The 2017 Annual Meeting will be held on a date, and at a time and place, to be determined by the Company.³ According to the Company’s proxy statement, you may attend the 2017 Annual Meeting if you were a shareholder of record at the close of business on March 1, 2017, the Record Date for the 2017 Annual Meeting. According to the Company’s proxy statement, only shareholders and authorized guests of the Company may attend the 2017 Annual Meeting and all attendees will be required to show a valid form of ID (such as a government-issued form of photo identification). If you hold your shares in street name (i.e., through a bank or broker), you must also provide proof of share ownership, such as a letter from your bank or broker or a recent brokerage statement. Street-name holders planning on voting in person at the annual meeting must provide a “legal proxy” from their bank or broker. Please see the Company’s proxy statement for a complete description of how to attend the 2017 Annual Meeting.

What is the quorum requirement for the 2017 Annual Meeting?

A quorum is the minimum number of shares of Common Stock that must be represented at a duly called meeting in person or by proxy in order to legally conduct business at the meeting. A majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, present at the meeting or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at the 2017 Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes count as “shares present” at the 2017 Annual Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum. If you vote to abstain on one or more proposals, your shares of Common Stock will be counted as present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum unless you vote to abstain on all proposals.

What is the effect of an “ABSTAIN” vote?

Abstentions are considered to be present and entitled to vote with respect to each relevant proposal, but are not considered “votes cast” on these proposals. As a result of the voting requirements for each of the proposals to be considered at the 2017 Annual Meeting, abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 9, but will have the same effect as a vote AGAINST Proposal Nos. 5, 6, 7 and 8.

What is a broker non-vote?

A “broker non-vote” occurs when a broker submits a proxy for the meeting with respect to a discretionary matter but does not vote on non-discretionary matters because the beneficial owner did not provide voting instructions on those matters. Given the delivery to brokers of competing sets of proxy materials, the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) rules governing brokers’ discretionary authority will not permit such brokers to exercise discretionary authority regarding any of the proposals to be voted on at the annual meeting, whether “routine” or not, to the extent Street-name holders have been provided with Elliott’s materials.

³The Company has not yet publicly disclosed the date, time and place of the 2017 Annual Meeting. Once the Company publicly discloses such date, time and place, Elliott intends to supplement this Proxy Statement with such information and file revised definitive materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NEWARCONIC.COM VOTE THE BLUE PROXY CARD 13

Table of Contents

If your shares are held of record by a bank, broker or other nominee, we urge you to give instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee as to how you wish your shares to be voted so you may participate in the shareholder voting on these important matters. As a result of the voting requirements for each of the proposals to be considered at the 2017 Annual Meeting, broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 9, but will have the same effect as a vote AGAINST Proposal Nos. 5, 6, 7 and 8.

What vote is required to elect the Nominees?

According to the Company’s proxy statement, the election of directors at the 2017 Annual Meeting is considered a contested election as defined in the Company’s By-Laws, and the five nominees receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes cast will be elected. Abstentions and broker non-votes count as “shares present” at the 2017 Annual Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum, but abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered “votes cast” on this proposal and therefore has no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

What vote is required to approve the other proposals described in this Proxy Statement?

According to the Company’s proxy statement, the approval of Proposal Nos. 2 and 9 require the affirmative vote of a majority of the “votes cast” for the proposal at the 2017 Annual Meeting. “Votes cast” on these proposals means votes “For” or “Against” a particular proposal, whether by proxy or in person. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered “votes cast” on these proposals and therefore have no effect on the outcome of these proposals.

According to the Company’s proxy statement, Proposal Nos. 3 and 4 are non-binding, advisory votes requiring further action by the Company to implement any changes. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered “votes cast” on these proposals and therefore have no effect on the outcome of these proposals.

With respect to Proposal Nos. 5, 6, 7 and 8, authorization requires the approval of holders of 80% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” each of these proposals.

What should you do in order to vote for the Nominees and the other proposals?

If your shares of Common Stock are registered in your own name, please sign and date the enclosed BLUE proxy card and return it to Elliott, c/o Okapi Partners, in the enclosed postage-paid envelope today.

BACKGROUND OF THE SOLICITATION

The following is a chronology of material events leading up to this proxy solicitation.

On September 28, 2015, the Company announced that the Board approved a plan to separate the Company into two publicly-traded companies, Upstream Company and Value-Add Company (the “Separation”), with Upstream Company operating under the “Alcoa” name with new leadership and Value-Add Company operating under a new name with Dr. Kleinfeld as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

On November 9, 2015, Elliott met with Dr. Kleinfeld at the Company’s offices in New York. During the meeting, they discussed negative investor perception of the Company and the Separation, and a number of opportunities to maximize shareholder value, including by improving investor communications, optimizing the structure of the Separation and reforming shareholder-unfriendly corporate governance practices.

On November 23, 2015, Elliott filed a Schedule 13D disclosing a 6.4% economic interest in the Company. In the Schedule 13D, Elliott stated that it would seek to engage in a constructive dialogue with the Board and the Company’s management regarding the Separation as well as a number of other available opportunities to maximize shareholder value.

On January 20, 2016, Elliott met with Dr. Kleinfeld and Matthew Garth at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. During the meeting, Elliott expressed its conviction that better investor communication, clearly defined long-term margin targets, thoughtful structuring of the Separation and improved corporate governance were needed to fully realize the Company’s value potential. Elliott also discussed a need for the Company to add directors with relevant expertise and operational experience to the Board and suggested a number of potential candidates.

On January 25, 2016, Elliott filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D disclosing a 7.4% economic interest in the Company.

On February 1, 2016, Elliot entered into a letter agreement with the Company pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the Company agreed that effective as of February 5, 2016, the size of the Board would be increased to 15 directors and the Board would appoint each of Ulrich (Rick) Schmidt, Sean O. Mahoney and John C. Plant to fill the vacancies resulting from such increase, (ii) Elliot agreed that at the Company’s 2016 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2016 Annual Meeting”), it would vote all shares of Common Stock that it had the right to vote, as of the record date, in favor of the election of directors nominated by the Board and, subject to certain exceptions relating to any extraordinary transactions, in accordance with the Board’s recommendation on any proposals and (iii) Elliot agreed to certain standstill provisions expiring on January 7, 2017, subject to certain exceptions. Elliott also filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D disclosing a 7.5% economic interest in the Company.

On November 1, 2016, the Company completed the Separation into “Arconic Inc.” and “Alcoa Corporation”.

On November 4, 2016, Elliott filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D disclosing a 9.0% economic interest in the Company.

On November 15, 2016, Elliott filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D disclosing a 10.0% economic interest in the Company.

On December 8, 2016, Elliott and the Company entered into a confidentiality agreement expiring on December 14, 2016, the day of the Company’s upcoming 2016 investor day event (the “2016 Investor Day”), pursuant to which the Company provided Elliott with a copy of the planned presentation for the 2016 Investor Day. Elliott also filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D disclosing an 11.1% economic interest in the Company.

During the standstill period, from February 1, 2016 to January 7, 2017, Elliott met with members of the Board and Company management on a number of occasions to privately express Elliott’s views regarding the Company’s disappointing performance and shareholder views on the performance of existing management.

On January 7, 2017, certain standstill provisions related to the February 1, 2016 letter agreement expired.

On January 9, 2017, Elliott sent a private letter to the Board informing them that after extensive due diligence on the Company and multiple meetings with management, Elliott concluded that immediate change in the Company’s leadership is needed. Elliott expressed its preference to work constructively and privately with the Board so the Board would voluntarily take appropriate action to address the Company’s disappointing performance and the management issues at the Company.

On January 10, 2017, Elliott met with Company directors Messrs. O’Neal, Collins, Mahoney and Mme. Russo. During the meeting, they discussed the contents of Elliott’s January 9, 2017 letter and how the Board intends to address Elliott’s concerns.

On January 25, 2017, Elliott filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D disclosing an 11.9% economic interest in the Company.

On January 30, 2017, Elliott met with Company directors Messrs. O’Neal, Collins, Mahoney, Gupta, and Mme. Russo. In Elliott’s view, the measures proposed by the directors failed to properly address the Company’s performance issues and Elliott’s concerns regarding existing management.

On January 31, 2017, Elliott delivered a letter to the Company (the “Nomination Letter”) nominating Christopher L. Ayers, Elmer L. Doty, Charles M. Hall, Bernd F. Kessler and Patrice E. Merrin for election to the Board at the 2017 Annual Meeting. In the Nomination Letter, Elliott stated that to the extent the Company includes Ulrich “Rick” Schmidt on its slate of director candidates for election at the 2017 Annual Meeting, Elliott intends to withdraw one of the Nominees. Elliott also issued an investor presentation stating Elliott’s views on Arconic and Dr. Kleinfeld’s leadership.

Between January 31, 2017 and February 3, 2017, Elliott issued four updated versions of the investor presentation dated January 31, 2017, mainly in order to clarify Elliott’s beliefs as to the likely extent of the opportunity at Global Rolled Products (“GRP”) and to provide additional clarification and support with respect to certain of the information presented. The key differences between the final version of the presentation (referred to as version 5) and earlier versions (referred to as versions 1 to 4) are discussed below:

In version 1, slide 7 described the upper bound of the perceived opportunity at GRP as achieving “best-in-class” performance, entailing an increase in EBITDA of ~$750 million, worth $13.50 per share. On slide 20, supporting detail regarding “best-in-class” performance was incorrectly referred to as “Industry Average”. In version 3, that typo was corrected to read “best-in-class”.

In version 3, slide 21 used a metric “best-in-class production cost,” defined as the “(lowest cost line item across top 10 producers) summed across Raw Material, Overhead, & WIP, and Other.” To further clarify the methodology used, subsequent versions renamed the metric as “Best Demonstrated Practice” (“BDP”). This name was designed to convey that the metric summed up the lowest costs from multiple producers (as previously described in the footnote). Understanding that there may be some debate about the extent to which BDP is fully-achievable, the footnote on slide 21 was modified to make clear that this upper bound figure “may not be fully achievable” since “the components of rolling costs are interactive.” Moreover, Elliott modified its “High” case to the achievement of $245 million of cost savings at GRP, worth $4.41 per share. The “High” case corporate multiple used is a summary product of the weighted components of the business and any changes to that multiple reflect the changing weights of the various businesses. As a result of these changes, in version 5, Elliott reduced the “High” case price per share from $54 per share to $46 per share and the percentage upside from 138% to a maximum of 105%.

In version 4 of the presentation, in an effort to enable investors to determine for themselves the amount of possible cost savings at GRP, an appendix was added with additional rolling cost data illustrating GRP against four possible approaches to GRP cost savings: Industry Average bucketed costs; Best-in-Class Producer (defined as a single producer); Best-in-Class Producer with BDP for Overhead & WIP; and BDP. In version 5, slide 21 was updated to provide a summary view of the four possible approaches to GRP cost savings, with each approach and the related terminology explained in detail in a supporting footnote. The slide also clarified that Elliott’s approach reflected its analysis of Industry Data rather than simply raw industry cost data. The appendix was eliminated in version 5 as Elliott believed that using the summary approach alone resulted in a presentation that is more useful to the typical reader.

Version 5 differed from version 1 on slides 7 and 20 in describing the gap between Arconic’s margins and that of its competitor Precision Castparts (“PCC”). Version 1 contained a graph comparing PCC and Arconic margins by year. Recognizing that differences in the reporting periods (PCC reports fiscal years that end on 3/31 while Arconic reports fiscal years that end on 12/31) could lead to some confusion, subsequent versions clarified this to match PCC to Arconic’s calendar year reporting. Adjustments were also made for allocation of corporate expenses, one-time expenses, and pension expenses at both companies. From version 1 to version 5, the gap was reduced to from 690 bps to 590 in 2008 and from 730 to 620 in 2015. Elliott also described the gap as an average of 700 bps rather than a range of 700 bps to 1100 bps. Elliott does not believe that these changes had a material effect on its analysis.

In version 2, Elliott eliminated the reference to 50% upside from EPS improvements and 7% upside from corporate expense reduction to reflect a uniform approach for all aspects of the business (Elliott had not provided percentage changes for improvement at GRP and TCS). Elliott does not believe that these changes had a material effect on its analysis.

In version 5, Elliott’s description of Arconic’s 2016 Revenue Guidance was adjusted from $14.7 billion of revenue to $14.4 billion to reflect LME/FX changes and the sale of the Remele medical device business. Elliott believed that this change was more favorable to Arconic.

In version 4, slide 25 was adjusted to exclude EVP Business Services and EVP Business Development roles given the unclear status of these roles at Arconic today.

On February 1, 2017, Elliott issued a letter to the Company’s shareholders stating that Elliott believes fundamental change is needed at the Company, and the election of the Nominees to the Board is necessary to catalyze such a change. In the letter, Elliott also discussed its engagement of former Spirit AeroSystems, Inc. (“Spirit AeroSystems”) CEO Larry Lawson as a consultant. Elliott also filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D disclosing a 12.1% economic interest in the Company.

On February 3, 2017, Elliott updated its letter to the Company’s shareholders dated February 1, 2017, to provide additional information with respect to the opportunity size of potential operational improvements at Arconic and to reduce the illustrative upper end of the range of share prices that Elliott believes Arconic can achieve (based on the application of an appropriate industry multiple) following the implementation of certain improvements.

On February 6, 2017, the Board issued a letter to Arconic’s shareholders stating the Board’s support for the Company’s strategic direction and the continued leadership of Chairman and CEO Dr. Kleinfeld.

On February 7, 2017, Elliott issued a letter to the Board responding to its letter dated February 6, 2017. Elliott also issued a press release including the full text of the letter.

On February 13, 2017, Elliott issued a letter calling for the Board to take action, in light of the level of shareholder support witnessed since Elliott announced its nomination of the Nominees for election to the Board at the 2017 Annual Meeting, and suggested the Board consider Larry Lawson as Chief Executive Officer. Elliott also issued a press release including the full text of the letter.

On February 23, 2017, Elliott issued a letter to the Board requesting that the Board form a search committee and conduct a full search for a new Chief Executive Officer without delay, and suggesting that the Board consider Larry Lawson as a lead candidate. Elliott also issued a press release including the full text of the letter.

On February 24, 2017, Jon Pollock, Co-Chief Executive Officer and Co-Chief Investment Officer of Elliott Management Corporation, spoke to Company director Mme. Russo about engaging on a collaborative solution at Arconic and encouraged Mme. Russo and the other members of the Board to work constructively with Elliott to achieve a positive outcome for all involved.

On February 28, 2017, Elliott filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D disclosing a 13.4% economic interest in the Company.

On March 2, 2017, the Company announced the appointment of David P. Hess to the Board to take the seat to be vacated by Martin S. Sorrell, effective March 10, 2017. The Company also announced certain proposed changes to the Company’s corporate governance practices, including certain proposals to be reflected in the Company’s proxy statement, and the Board issued a letter to Arconic’s shareholders reaffirming its support for the continued leadership of Dr. Kleinfeld.

REASONS FOR THE SOLICITATION

WE BELIEVE THAT immediate change in leadership is needed AT Arconic

We have a 13.2%⁴ economic interest in Arconic, making us the Company’s largest shareholder. We are convinced that Arconic has a world-class asset base and a high-quality workforce that, if managed properly, with prudent reinvestment of capital, should produce substantial returns for its shareholder owners. However, under the leadership of current CEO Dr. Klaus Kleinfeld, the Company has failed to achieve its potential, and has destroyed considerable shareholder value. After performing extensive due diligence on the Company and holding numerous meetings with management and Arconic directors, our conclusion is clear and unambiguous: immediate change in leadership is needed for Arconic to reliably and sustainably create shareholder value.

At this juncture in the Company’s evolution, with its focus having been narrowed, we believe that a leader with a demonstrated capability to deliver consistently excellent operational results would greatly benefit Arconic and its long-term shareholders. We have engaged former Spirit AeroSystems CEO Larry Lawson as a consultant based on our belief that Mr. Lawson should be a leading candidate for the Board to consider to become the Company’s CEO.

Elliott agrees with the Board that this is a critically important, formative time for Arconic. We strongly believe that Arconic has enormous potential, possessing a world-class asset base and high-quality workforce, but is held back by management leadership ill-suited to the key tasks ahead – disciplined operating execution and effective capital allocation. We have urged the Board to do what is clearly in the best interest of Arconic’s stakeholders and begin searching for Dr. Kleinfeld’s successor. However, thus far the Board, as currently composed, has been unwilling to take this logical step. As a result, we are soliciting your support to elect our Nominees at the 2017 Annual Meeting. Our Nominees would bring substantial expertise and deep experience to the Board, and would work with the other members of the Board to position the Company to act on the enormous value-creation opportunity present at Arconic today.

We are Concerned with the Company’s History of Disappointing Financial Results
Under Dr. Kleinfeld’s Leadership

Since Dr. Kleinfeld became CEO, on a total shareholder return basis, the Company has underperformed its own self-selected Proxy Peers’ median by 156% and the S&P 500 by 150%. In addition, the Company has underperformed the median return of its self-selected Industrials Proxy Peers, Materials Proxy Peers, and Aluminum Peers since Dr. Kleinfeld became CEO, and over nearly every cumulative annual period over the past eight years.⁵

⁴Because the Company has not yet publicly disclosed how many shares of Common Stock were outstanding as of March 1, 2017, the Record Date for the 2017 Annual Meeting, the percentage of ownership reported throughout this Proxy Statement is based upon 440,535,657 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 23, 2017, as disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2017.

As we detailed in our investor presentation dated January 31, 2017, even on an absolute basis, the Company’s annual returns were negative in most years since Dr. Kleinfeld has been its CEO, with the Company’s stock only outperforming peers in a single year since 2008.⁶ Making matters worse, in 23 of 35 quarters under Dr. Kleinfeld’s leadership, the Company’s stock price declined following earnings, including eight of the most recent ten quarters.⁷

Annual TSR Relative to Peers Under Dr. Klaus Kleinfeld (32.5) (23.9) 43.4 (11.9) (21.0) (34.6) (36.3) (15.4) (23.8) 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008

In our view, the main driver of the Company’s undervaluation during Dr. Kleinfeld’s tenure is clear: the Company’s poor leadership culture. This is evidenced not only by the Company’s disappointing stock performance, but also its underwhelming operating results and high turnover among the Company’s executive leadership.

Operational, Strategic and Communications Failures During Dr. Kleinfeld’s Tenure
Evidence Arconic’s Need for New Leadership

We believe that the Company has made several value-destructive capital allocation decisions during Dr. Kleinfeld’s tenure as CEO. Most notably, the Company acquired Firth Rixson for approximately $3 billion (inclusive of a $150 million earn-out) in late 2014, more than 22x 2016 EBITDA. This acquisition was a startling and deeply concerning display of poor judgment, resulting in Firth Rixson contributing 61% less EBITDA and 41% less revenue than management promised. Management’s full history of poor strategic decisions can been seen when comparing the Company’s return on invested capital to its cost of capital.⁸

Quarterly June 2008 – September 2016

We believe that Arconic also has a history of poor communication with investors and broken promises. Arconic’s largest and most valuable business, Engineered Products & Solutions (EPS), substantially missed both the original performance targets that management set for 2016 – at the 2015 Investor Day (November 2015) – and the subsequently revised-down targets set on the Q1 Earnings Call (April 2016).

Inclusive of TCS business segment

We believe that lack of investor confidence in management’s ability to hit targets has resulted in an effective “management discount” for Arconic relative to peers. We believe that this view is supported by the significant positive movement in the Company’s stock price following our public announcement of our conclusion regarding the immediate need for change in leadership at Arconic.⁹

⁹In the eight trading days following the January 31^st announcement of Elliott’s board nominations through February 10^th, Arconic stock has increased approximately thirty percent.

We Question the Company’s Recently Announced Corporate Governance Changes

We believe that the Company’s recently announced initiatives to change its corporate governance practices are reactionary and taken as a result of the scrutiny brought by Elliott’s criticisms of the Board in order to help prolong and preserve the leadership status quo at Arconic. We further believe that these changes effectively constitute an acknowledgment by Arconic of its historically poor corporate governance practices under Mr. Kleinfeld’s leadership as the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Board had ample time and opportunity under Mr. Kleinfeld’s leadership to address Arconic’s corporate governance practices, including its classified board structure and supermajority shareholder approval requirements. Notably, Arconic could have sought to enhance its corporate governance in connection with the Separation by following suit with Alcoa Corporation’s Delaware incorporation (rather than Pennsylvania), annually elected board of directors, majority voting requirements and separated Chairman and CEO structure.

We are further concerned that the Company’s own supermajority voting provisions (requiring the approval of holders of 80% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock) make it extremely difficult for the proposals to declassify the Board and eliminate the supermajority voting provisions in the Charter to be approved by shareholders at the 2017 Annual Meeting. According to the Company’s proxy statement:

“In recent years, at several annual meetings, the Board of Directors has recommended to shareholders that they approve eliminating these three supermajority vote requirements in our Articles of Incorporation. However, these proposals did not receive sufficient support of the shareholders to be adopted.”

Notably, at the Company’s past five annual meetings of shareholders, an average of just 77.8% of the outstanding shares have been represented in person or by proxy, which amount would not be enough to constitute approval of the Company’s currently-proposed Charter amendments even if every single share present were voted in favor of a proposal. The Company’s proxy statement also states that the Board previously submitted and recommended in favor of a declassification proposal at the Company’s 2012 annual meeting of shareholders, but that the proposal failed to receive sufficient support. It should be noted that the Board recommended against a shareholder proposal to declassify the Board at the prior year’s 2011 annual meeting of shareholders. As a result, not only do we question the Board’s intentions with respect to these governance proposals, but we also question the manner in which the Board is seeking to implement these changes.

The Board acknowledges that these governance changes could be achieved through a Delaware reincorporation, which would only require the approval of a majority of the votes cast by holders of Common Stock, and potentially Arconic’s classes of preferred stock as separate classes, in connection with such a reincorporation. We therefore do not understand the Company’s decision to put these governance changes up for shareholder approval as Charter amendments when identical proposals have failed to garner the level of support required at several previous annual meetings. We believe that a change in corporate jurisdiction to Delaware would also further improve the Company’s corporate governance (through the application of Delaware corporate law going forward). We believe that if the Board were fully committed to enhancing the Company’s corporate governance in the timeliest and most probable manner, then it would have proposed to effect the transfer of the Company’s jurisdiction from Pennsylvania to Delaware at the 2017 Annual Meeting.

Our Nominees Have the Experience, Qualifications and Commitment Necessary
to Unlock Value for Shareholders

For the reasons set forth above, we believe that immediate change in leadership is needed for Arconic to reliably and sustainably create shareholder value. We have identified and are nominating four highly qualified directors who would bring substantial expertise and deep experience to the Board, and would work with the other members of the Board to position the Company to act on the enormous value-creation opportunity present at Arconic today.

Christopher L. Ayers recently served as the President and Chief Executive Officer of WireCo WorldGroup, Inc., a leading producer of specialty steel wire ropes and high performance synthetic ropes, from July 2013 to January 2017. Prior to joining WireCo, Mr. Ayers served as an Executive Vice President of Alcoa Inc. and President of its Global Primary Products Business and President of the PCC Forgings Division of Precision Castparts Corp. Mr. Ayers’ extensive experience in the specialty materials industry, including his previous executive service with the Company prior to its separation into two publicly traded companies, makes him well-qualified to serve on the Board.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company has a classified Board, which currently consists of 13 directors and is divided into three classes. Directors are elected for three-year terms. We believe that the terms of five directors serving on the Board expire at the 2017 Annual Meeting. We are seeking to change a minority of the Board. We are soliciting proxies to elect not only our four director nominees, but also the candidate who has been nominated by the Company other than Messrs. Hess, Kleinfeld and Tata and Ms. Alving. This gives shareholders the ability to vote for the total number of directors up for election at the 2017 Annual Meeting. If elected, our nominees, subject to their fiduciary duties as directors, will seek to work with the other members of the Board to position Arconic to maximize shareholder value. However, our Nominees will constitute a minority on the Board and there can be no guarantee that our nominees will be able to implement the actions that they believe are necessary to do so, including replacing Dr. Kleinfeld as the Company’s CEO and selecting a successor.

THE NOMINEES

Set forth below are the names, ages, business addresses and business experience for the past five years and certain other information for our Nominees. The nominations were made in a timely manner and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Company’s governing instruments. This information has been furnished to Elliott by our Nominees. In addition, the table below sets forth a brief discussion of the specific experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that led to the conclusion that the Nominee should serve as a director for the Company as of the date hereof, in light of the Company’s business and structure.

Each of the Nominees may be deemed to be a member of the Group (as defined below) for the purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Each of the Nominees specifically disclaims beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock that he or she does not directly own.

Elliott Associates, Elliott International, and the other Participants (other than Mr. Lawson) are collectively referred to as the “Group” herein.

Elliott Associates and Elliott International have entered into an engagement and indemnification agreement with each of the Nominees. Pursuant to such agreements, Elliott Associates and Elliott International have agreed to indemnify each of the Nominees for certain potential claims in connection with their standing as candidates for election to the Board, and Elliott Associates and Elliott International have agreed to pay each Nominee (i) a fee of $50,000 upon submission of all information required in connection with their respective nominations and (ii) an additional fee of $50,000 upon being named as a nominee in the preliminary proxy statement filed by Elliott Associates and Elliott International in connection with the 2017 Annual Meeting. The Nominees are required to use the after-tax proceeds from such fees to purchase shares of Common Stock promptly following the date of the 2017 Annual Meeting; provided, however, in the event a Nominee is unable to transact in the securities of the Company due to possession of material non-public information or any other limitation or restriction, such Nominee shall have five (5) days from the first date that such Nominee can transact in the securities of the Company to acquire such securities. Such agreements have no ongoing obligations or contingencies relating to the time from and after the Nominees are elected as directors of the Company.

On January 31, 2016, Elliott Associates, Elliott International, EICA (as defined below) and the Nominees entered into a Joint Filing and Solicitation Agreement in which, among other things the parties agreed to (i) the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D, and any amendments thereto, with respect to the securities of the Company and (ii) solicit proxies for the election of the Nominees at the 2017 Annual Meeting.

Other than as stated herein, there are no arrangements or understandings between Elliott Associates, Elliott International, and the other Participants or any other person or persons pursuant to which the nomination of the Nominees described herein is to be made, other than the consent by each of the Nominees to be named in this Proxy Statement and to serve as a director of the Company if elected as such at the 2017 Annual Meeting. None of the Nominees is a party adverse to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to the Company or any of its subsidiaries in any material pending legal proceedings.

The corporate governance guidelines of the Company, which are available on the Company’s website at http://www.arconic.com/global/en/investors/governance-guidelines.asp, provide that determinations of independence shall be made by the Board in accordance with the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and Arconic’s Director Independence Standards, which are available on the Company’s website at http://www.arconic.com/global/en/investors/director-independence-std.asp. Based on the information furnished by the Nominees, Elliott believes each of the Nominees is independent under such standards and Elliott has no knowledge of any facts that would prevent the determination that each of the Nominees is independent under such standards. No Nominee is a member of the Company’s audit, compensation and benefits, executive, governance and nominating, or international committee that is not independent under any such committee’s applicable independence standards.

The Nominees, if elected at the 2017 Annual Meeting, would hold office until the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their respective successors have been duly elected and qualified. Each of the Nominees has consented to being named as a nominee in this Proxy Statement and, if elected, to serving as a director of the Company.

In addition, each of the Nominees understands that, if elected as a director of the Company, each Nominee would have an obligation to act in the best interests of the Company and the shareholders in accordance with his or her duties as a director.

While we currently intend to vote all of the Elliott Group Shares in favor of the election of the Nominees, we reserve the right to vote some or all of the Elliott Group Shares for some or all of the Company’s director nominees, as we see fit, in order to achieve a Board composition that we believe is in the best interest of all shareholders. We would only intend to vote some or all of the Elliott Group Shares for some or all of the Company’s director nominees in a different manner than we are otherwise recommending in the event it were to become apparent to us, based on the projected voting results at such time, that less than all of the Nominees would be elected at the 2017 Annual Meeting and that by voting the Elliott Group Shares we could help elect the Company nominees that we believe are the most qualified to serve as directors and thus help achieve a Board composition that we believe is in the best interest of all shareholders.

This proposal requires the approval of holders of 80% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Additional information regarding this proposal is contained in the Company’s proxy statement.

Elliott had previously publicly urged the Board to bring its corporate-governance standards into line with globally-recognized best practices, including, but not limited to, by eliminating supermajority voting requirements from the Charter.

PROPOSAL NO. 9 — SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL

As discussed in further detail in the Company’s proxy statement. Kenneth Steiner, a shareholder of the Company, has submitted a proposal to the Company, which calls for the Board to take the steps necessary so that each voting requirement in the Charter and By-laws that calls for a greater than simple majority vote be eliminated, and replaced by a requirement for a majority of the votes cast for and against applicable proposals, or a simple majority in compliance with applicable laws. Accordingly, the text of Mr. Steiner’s proposal follows:

“Proposal 9 — Simple Majority Vote

RESOLVED, Shareholders request that our board take the steps necessary so that each voting requirement in our charter and bylaws that calls for a greater than simple majority vote be eliminated, and replaced by a requirement for a majority of the votes cast for and against applicable proposals, or a simple majority in compliance with applicable laws. If necessary this means the closest standard to a majority of the votes cast for and against such proposals consistent with applicable laws.

Shareowners are willing to pay a premium for shares of companies that have excellent corporate governance. Supermajority voting requirements have been found to be one of 6 entrenching mechanisms that are negatively related to company performance according to “What Matters in Corporate Governance” by Lucien Bebchuk, Alma Cohen and Allen Ferrell of the Harvard Law School. Supermajority requirements are used to block initiatives supported by most shareowners but opposed by a status quo management.

This proposal topic won from 74% to 88% support at Weyerhaeuser, Alcoa, Waste Management, Goldman Sachs, FirstEnergy, McGraw-Hill and Macy’s. The proponents of these proposals included Ray T. Chevedden and William Steiner.

Currently a 1%-minority can frustrate the will of our 79%-shareholder majority. In other words a 1%-minority could have the power to prevent shareholders from improving our charter and bylaws.

Please vote to enhance shareholder value: Simple Majority Vote- Proposal 9.”

We recommend that you vote “FOR” this proposal, if properly presented, by checking the appropriate box and signing, dating and returning the enclosed BLUE proxy card.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

Proxies may be solicited by mail, facsimile, telephone, telegraph, electronic mail, in person and by advertisements. Solicitations may also be made by certain of the respective directors, officers, members and employees of Elliott, none of whom will, except as described elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, receive additional compensation for such solicitation. The Nominees may make solicitations of proxies but, except as described herein, will not receive compensation for acting as nominees.

We have retained Okapi Partners for solicitation and advisory services in connection with solicitations relating to the 2017 Annual Meeting. Okapi Partners has earned fees of $225,000, through the date of this proxy statement, applicable toward the final fee to be mutually agreed upon by Elliott and Okapi Partners and reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for its services to Elliott in connection with the solicitation. Approximately 300 people may be employed by Okapi Partners to solicit proxies from the Company’s shareholders for the 2017 Annual Meeting. Elliott has agreed to indemnify Okapi Partners in its capacity as solicitation agent against certain liabilities and expenses in connection with the solicitation. Arrangements will also be made with custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for forwarding proxy solicitation materials to beneficial owners of Common Stock held as of the Record Date. Elliott will reimburse such custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable expenses incurred in connection herewith. In addition, directors, officers, members and certain other employees of Elliott and its affiliates may solicit proxies as part of their duties in the normal course of their employment without any additional compensation.

Elliott will pay all costs of the solicitation of proxies on behalf of Elliott and the other participants described in this Proxy Statement for the 2017 Annual Meeting. Elliott does not intend to seek reimbursement of those costs from the Company. The expenses incurred by Elliott or on Elliott’s behalf to date in furtherance of, or in connection with, the solicitation of proxies for the 2017 Annual Meeting is $1 million and Elliott anticipates that its total expenses will be approximately $15 million. The actual amount could be higher or lower depending on the facts and circumstances arising in connection with any such solicitation.

Through this Proxy Statement, we are soliciting proxies to elect not only our four director nominees, but also the candidate who has been nominated by the Company other than Messrs. Hess, Kleinfeld and Tata and Ms. Alving. This gives shareholders the ability to vote for the total number of directors up for election at the 2017 Annual Meeting.

Elliott Associates, through Liverpool, and Elliott International have entered into notional principal amount derivative agreements (the “Derivative Agreements”) in the form of cash settled swaps with respect to 2,324,005 and 4,938,512 shares of Common Stock, respectively (representing economic exposure comparable to less than 1% and approximately 1.1% of the shares of Common Stock of the Company, respectively). Collectively, the Derivative Agreements held by such parties represent economic

exposure comparable to an interest in approximately 1.6% of the shares of Common Stock. The Derivative Agreements provide Elliott Associates and Elliott International with economic results that are comparable to the economic results of ownership but do not provide them with the power to vote or direct the voting or dispose of or direct the disposition of the shares that are referenced in the Derivative Agreements (such shares, the “Subject Shares”). Each of Elliott Associates, Elliott International and their affiliates disclaim beneficial ownership in the Subject Shares.

On January 31, 2017, Elliott Associates and Elliott International entered into a Consulting Agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with Mr. Lawson. Elliott Associates and Elliott International have engaged Mr. Lawson as a consultant based on our belief that Mr. Lawson should be a leading candidate for the Board to consider to become the Company’s CEO. Mr. Lawson most recently served as President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of Spirit AeroSystems, the largest Tier 1 designer and manufacturer of metal and carbon fiber aero-structures for commercial and military aircraft, from April 2013 through July 2016. During his time leading Spirit AeroSystems and in prior positions with Lockheed Martin Corporation and its predecessor companies, Mr. Lawson gained extensive executive leadership experience with multinational aerospace and manufacturing companies, and significant knowledge relative to aircraft manufacturing, business development, engineering operations, international marketing and performance-based logistics. We have engaged Mr. Lawson, at our own expense, because we understand the value of finding a highly-in-demand operating executive with such a superb track record and directly relevant experience who would be available to lead the kind of turnaround necessary at Arconic.

Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, Mr. Lawson has agreed to perform certain consulting, advisory and other services to Elliott Associates and Elliott International, including with respect to Elliott International’s nomination of the Nominees for election to the Board and the anticipated proxy solicitation in connection therewith. In February, the parties clarified that those services are limited to providing information to Elliott, Arconic’s shareholders, proxy advisory services and/or the public concerning Mr. Lawson’s prospective service as a CEO of Arconic, and how he believes he could improve Arconic’s performance. The parties also agreed that Elliott was not asking Mr. Lawson to, and that Mr. Lawson would not: provide, use, or rely upon any trade secrets or confidential information belonging to Spirit AeroSystems or any information he obtained during his tenure at Spirit AeroSystems; provide or disclose to Elliott, or analyze for Elliott, information regarding the manufacture, fabrication, maintenance, repair, overhaul, or modification of aerostructures and aircraft components; assist with the ownership, management, operation, or control of Arconic; advise Elliott concerning Arconic’s relationship with Spirit AeroSystems, including but not limited to any potential competition with Spirit AeroSystems; or provide, use, or rely upon any information inconsistent with Mr. Lawson’s obligations under any agreements with Spirit AeroSystems. Elliott Associates and Elliott International have agreed to pay Mr. Lawson $100,000 per calendar month during the term of the agreement, which is to expire on May 31, 2017; provided, that (i) Mr. Lawson may terminate the Consulting Agreement immediately upon written notice to Elliott Associates and Elliott International, (ii) following May 31, 2017 and the payment of the fee due on August 1, 2017 (if applicable and as explained further below), Elliott Associates and Elliott International may terminate the Consulting Agreement immediately upon written notice to Mr. Lawson, and (iii) unless written notice of non-renewal is provided prior to the expiration of the then effective term, the Consulting Agreement shall automatically extend for successive periods of three calendar months. Further, Elliott Associates and Elliott International have agreed to pay Mr. Lawson a lump sum of $1,000,000 on the date of such agreement, and if Mr. Lawson becomes the Chief Executive Officer of the Company on or prior to July 31, 2017, Mr. Lawson is required to use the after-tax proceeds from such lump sum payment to purchase shares of Common Stock on the public market within fifteen (15) days of such date, subject to applicable trading restrictions imposed by the Company. Elliott Associates and Elliott International have also agreed to pay Mr. Lawson an additional fee of $3,000,000 on August 1, 2017 to the extent he is not named as Chief Executive of the Company on or prior to July 31, 2017.

Before Mr. Lawson retired from Spirit AeroSystems, he executed a Retirement and Consulting Agreement and General Release, dated as of June 7, 2016 (the “Retirement Agreement”), which provided for, among other things, the extension of his then-existing non-competition obligations under his prior employment agreement with Spirit AeroSystems through July 31, 2018 and the continued vesting of grants previously received by Mr. Lawson under Spirit AeroSystems’ long-term incentive plans. Neither Elliott nor Mr. Lawson believes that his service as a consultant to Elliott or his potential service as a Chief Executive Officer of the Company would violate the terms of his Retirement Agreement.

In connection with the Consulting Agreement, Elliott Associates, Elliott International and Mr. Lawson also entered into an Indemnification Agreement pursuant to which Elliott Associates and Elliott International have agreed to indemnify Mr. Lawson for certain potential claims, losses and expenses. Spirit AeroSystems has taken the position that Mr. Lawson’s service as a consultant to Elliott constitutes a breach of the Retirement Agreement and has withheld certain payments thereunder. Elliott has indemnified Mr. Lawson for such withheld payments. Spirit AeroSystems has, to date, withheld 70,655 shares granted under its long-term incentive plans and $1,232,384.62 in cash payments otherwise due to Mr. Lawson under the Retirement Agreement. Spirit AeroSystems’ total remaining payment obligations due to Mr. Lawson under the Retirement Agreement amount to approximately 408,596 additional shares granted under its long-term incentive plans and an additional $2,032,000.00 in cash. To date, Elliott has paid $5,439,889.87 under the Indemnification Agreement.

Other than as disclosed on elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, Elliott Associates, Elliott International, and the other Participants have not effected any transaction in securities of the Company in the past two years. The shares of Common Stock owned by

Stock Ownership of Directors and Executive Officers

The following table shows the ownership of Arconic common stock, as of February 17, 2017, by each director, each of the named executive officers, and all directors and executive officers as a group.

Mr. Kleinfeld is required to own shares of Arconic common stock equal in value to six times his annual salary and each of the other named executive officers is required to own shares of Arconic common stock equal in value to three times his or her annual salary. These officers are required to maintain that investment until retirement from the Company.

Non-employee directors are required to own, until retirement from the Board, at least $750,000 in Arconic common stock. Compliance with the ownership value requirement is measured annually and if the stock price declines in value, directors must continue to invest in Arconic stock until the stock ownership guideline is reached. To satisfy this requirement, as of November 1, 2016, directors receive a portion of their annual compensation in Arconic deferred restricted share units under the 2013 Arconic Stock Incentive Plan and they may also purchase shares in the open market or elect to defer the cash portion of their annual compensation into additional Arconic deferred restricted share units. Directors may also satisfy this requirement by holding deferred share units under the Company’s 2005 Deferred Fee Plan for Directors (now, the Amended and Restated Deferred Fee Plan for Directors) or a predecessor plan.

Each Arconic deferred restricted share unit is an undertaking by the Company to issue to the recipient one share of Arconic common stock upon settlement and, in the case of annual deferred restricted share units, subject to continued service through the first anniversary of the grant date, or, if earlier, the date of the next subsequent annual meeting of shareholders following the grant date (however, accelerated vesting provisions apply for certain termination scenarios, such as death and change in control). Deferred restricted share units granted in lieu of cash compensation pursuant to a director’s deferral election are fully vested at grant. Deferred restricted share units do not accrue dividend equivalents.

NEWARCONIC.COM VOTE THE BLUE PROXY CARD II-2

Arconic deferred share units provide directors with the same economic interest as if they own Arconic common stock. The deferred share units track the performance of our common stock and accrue dividend equivalents that are equal in value to dividends paid on our common stock.

This column shows beneficial ownership of Arconic common stock as calculated under SEC rules. Unless otherwise noted, each director and named executive officer has sole voting and investment power over the shares of Arconic common stock reported. None of the shares are subject to pledge. This column includes shares held of record, shares held by a bank, broker or nominee for the person’s account, shares held through family trust arrangements, and for executive officers, share equivalent units held in the Arconic Retirement Savings Plan which confer voting rights through the plan trustee with respect to shares of Arconic common stock. This column also includes shares of Arconic common stock that may be acquired under employee stock options that are exercisable as of February 17, 2017 or will become exercisable within 60 days after February 17, 2017 as follows: Mr. Kleinfeld (1,657,527); Mr. Giacobbe (5,040); Mr. Meggers (194,696); Mr. Jarrault (60,382); and Ms. Strauss (172,622); and all executive officers as a group 1,912,227). No awards of stock options have been made to non-employee directors. As of February 17, 2017, individual directors and executive officers, as well as all directors and executive officers as a group, beneficially owned less than 1% of the outstanding shares of common stock.

This column lists (i) for executive officers, deferred share equivalent units held under the Arconic Deferred Compensation Plan, and (ii) for directors, deferred share equivalent units held under the Amended and Restated Deferred Fee Plan for Directors and the Deferred Fee Plan for Directors (in effect before 2005). Each deferred

share equivalent unit tracks the economic performance of one share of Arconic common stock and is fully vested upon grant, but does not have voting rights.

This column lists deferred restricted share units issued under the 2013 Arconic Stock Incentive Plan. Each deferred restricted share unit is an undertaking by the Company to issue to the recipient one share of Arconic common stock upon settlement and, in the case of annual deferred restricted share units, subject to continued service through the first anniversary of the grant date, or, if earlier, the date of the next subsequent annual meeting of shareholders following the grant date (however, accelerated vesting provisions apply for certain termination scenarios, such as death and change in control). Deferred restricted share units granted in lieu of cash compensation pursuant to a director’s deferral election are fully vested at grant. Deferred restricted share units do not accrue dividend equivalents.

Mr. Hess was appointed to the Board of Directors effective March 10, 2017. The initial disbursement of his director compensation will be made on a date to be determined by the Company. Under Arconic’s director compensation program, Mr. Hess will receive an annual retainer of $240,000, plus any applicable Board committee fees, of which $120,000 shall be in deferred restricted share units. See “Director Compensation” on page 28.
