Inc. (NYSE:AA) (the “Company”) declared a quarterly common stock

of record as of the close of business on November 4, 2016.
The Company’s separation into two publicly-traded companies is scheduled

separation and distribution on November 1st, the Board has
revised the record date for the November 25, 2016 dividend, by moving it
from November 4 to November 11, 2016. Accordingly, the November 25, 2016
dividend will now be payable to shareholders of record at the close of
business on November 11, 2016.
Upon separation, Alcoa Inc. will be renamed Arconic Inc. The quarterly
common stock dividend declared by Alcoa Inc. will be paid on November
25, 2016 by Arconic Inc.
Following the separation, the boards of directors of Arconic and Alcoa
Corporation will review and determine the dividend policy of each
company.
Arconic’s shares of common stock will trade under the symbol ARNC.
