Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the Settlement Agreement, dated as of May 22, 2017, by and among Arconic Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “ Company ”), Elliott Associates, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“ Elliott Associates ”), Elliott International L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (“ Elliott International ”) and Elliott International Capital Advisors Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ EICA ” and collectively with Elliott Associates and Elliott International, “ Elliott ”; each of Elliott Associates, Elliott International and EICA is an “ Elliott Party ”) (the “ Settlement Agreement ”).

In connection with the resignation of Patrice Merrin as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “ Board ”), Elliott and the Company have agreed that Dave Miller (the “ New Director ”) will be appointed to fill the vacancy resulting from such designation, in satisfaction of Elliott’s right to designate a replacement pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Settlement Agreement. The New Director will be deemed an “Elliott Nominee” as defined in, and for purposes of, the Settlement Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Settlement Agreement, subject to the next sentence, the Board and the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board agree to nominate and recommend (and not change such recommendation in a manner adverse to the New Director unless required to do so by the Board’s fiduciary duty) that the Company’s shareholders vote in favor of the New Director or, subject to the Board’s prior approval in its sole discretion (acting in good faith), another designee of Elliott (and who, subject to such approval, for purposes of this letter agreement shall be deemed to be the “New Director”) for re-election at the Company’s 2018 annual meeting of shareholders (the “ 2018 Annual Meeting ”), and the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the re-election of the New Director to the Board at the 2018 Annual Meeting and otherwise support the New Director for re-election at the 2018 Annual Meeting in a manner no less rigorous and favorable than the manner in which the Company supports its other nominees. Until such time as the Elliott Parties and their controlling and controlled Affiliates’ aggregate beneficial ownership decreases to less than 5.0% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, if the Board or the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board determine not to nominate and recommend the New Director for re-election at any subsequent annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders after the 2018 Annual Meeting, the Company shall provide notice of such determination to Elliott no less than thirty (30) days prior to the deadline (pursuant to the certificate of incorporation of the Company, its bylaws, or otherwise) for shareholders to nominate a Person for election as a director at such annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders.

Elliott hereby acknowledges that it and its Affiliates (as defined in the Settlement Agreement; provided that for purposes of this Agreement and the Settlement Agreement the Company and its subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be Affiliates of Elliott) are aware that United States securities laws may restrict any person who has material, non-public information about a company from purchasing or selling any securities of such company while in possession of such information. Elliott shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, purchase and sell securities of the Company only in compliance with such securities laws.

Elliott also acknowledges that at all times while serving as a member of the Board, the New Director, solely in his individual capacity, will be required to comply with all policies, procedures, processes, codes, rules, standards and guidelines applicable to all non-executive members of the Board as currently in effect, with such changes (or such successor policies) as are applicable to all other directors and as are not disproportionately targeted towards the New Director (“ Board Policies ”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as the New Director is on the Board, (i) Elliott and its Affiliates shall not be subject to any trading policy, equity ownership guidelines (including with respect to the use of Rule 10b5-1 plans and preclearance or notification to the Company of any trades in the Company’s securities) or similar Board Policies with respect to the trading of securities of the Company, in each case other than with respect to the New Director solely in his or her individual capacity and except that Elliott agrees to refrain from trading securities of the Company during any period that directors of the Company are prohibited from trading such securities under the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, and (ii) no Board Policy shall be violated by the New Director receiving indemnification and/or reimbursement of expenses from Elliott or any of its Affiliates, provided that the New Director neither accepts nor receives any compensation from Elliott or any of its Affiliates with respect to the New Director’s service or action as a director of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Elliott acknowledges and agrees that at all times while the New Director is serving as a member of the Board, Elliott shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Board, (x) engage in (1) short sales of Company securities or (2) derivative transactions in Company securities, or (y) purchase or use financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds) that include or reference Company securities and are designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of Company securities; for the avoidance of doubt, (i) with respect to “long” derivative securities held by Elliott whether owned as of the date of this Agreement or acquired subsequent hereto, clause (x)(2) shall not restrict the acquisition, sale, closing or settlement of such “long” derivative securities and (ii) the purchase or use of a financial instrument that is based on an index that includes a broad range of equity securities shall not be deemed to violate clause (y). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of any Board Policies, it is agreed that any such Board Policies in effect from time to time that purport to impose terms inconsistent with this letter agreement shall not apply to Elliott or its Affiliates to the extent inconsistent with the express terms of this letter agreement (but shall otherwise be applicable to the New Director in his or her individual capacity).

In conjunction with this letter agreement, the parties are entering into a confidentiality agreement regarding any non-public information that may be received by Elliott following the appointment of the New Director to the Board.

In addition, when the Company nominates the New Director for election as a director at the 2018 Annual Meeting or any subsequent annual meeting, the Company agrees (a) to accept a director nominee representation and agreement submitted by the New Director in a form substantially identical to the director nominee representation and agreement that is being delivered in conjunction with this letter agreement and (b) to waive Article II, Section 5(D), of the Company’s bylaws to the extent inconsistent with such director nominee representation and agreement submitted by the New Director in connection with the 2018 Annual Meeting or any subsequent annual meeting.

The provisions of paragraphs 16, 17 (other than clause (e) thereof), 18, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26 (other than the first sentence thereof) and 27 of the Settlement Agreement shall apply mutatis mutandis to this letter agreement ( provided that for purposes of this agreement, paragraph 26 of the Settlement Agreement shall be deemed to refer to this letter agreement, the Settlement Agreement and the 2016 Agreement (as defined in the Settlement Agreement) as containing the entire understanding of the parties with respect to its current subject matter and, in the event of any inconsistency between this letter agreement and such other agreements, this letter agreement shall control).

[ Signature page follows ]

Please confirm your agreement with the foregoing by signing and returning this letter agreement to the undersigned, whereupon this letter agreement shall become a binding agreement between Elliott and the Company.

Accepted and agreed as of the date first written above:

Reference is hereby made to the Settlement Agreement (the “ Settlement Agreement ”), dated as of May 22, 2017, by and among Arconic Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “ Company ”), Elliott Associates, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“ Elliott Associates ”), Elliott International, L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (“ Elliott International ”), and Elliott International Capital Advisors Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ EICA ” and collectively with Elliott Associates and Elliott International, “ Elliott ”; each of Elliott Associates, Elliott International and EICA is an “Elliott Party”). Each of the Company and the Elliott Parties is referred to herein as a “ Party ” and, collectively, as the “ Parties .” Certain capitalized terms used in this letter agreement are defined in paragraph 9 hereof.

In accordance with paragraph 12 of the Settlement Agreement, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1.              Registration Statement . (a) Subject to paragraph 4 of this letter agreement, and provided that the Company is eligible to register the resale of Eligible Securities on Form S-3, the Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than February 2, 2018), use reasonable best efforts to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form or other appropriate form under the Securities Act) for an offering to be made on a continuous or delayed basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, covering the resale of all of the Eligible Securities (the “ Shelf Registration Statement ”) and no other securities. The Shelf Registration Statement shall be in a form permitting registration of such Eligible Securities for resale by the Elliott Parties in the manner or manners designated by them (but excluding underwritten offerings or similar transactions). The Company shall (subject to the limitations on registration obligations of the Company set forth herein) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement, or automatically if the Company is eligible to file an automatically effective shelf registration statement, and (subject to the limitations on registration obligations of the Company set forth herein and except at any time that the Company is not eligible to register the resale of Eligible Securities on Form S-3) to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date that is the earliest of (i) the first date when all Eligible Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold, (ii) the first date on which there are no longer any Eligible Securities and (iii) the End Date. In addition, if at any time prior to such earliest date referred to in the preceding sentence, the Company is not eligible to register the resale of Eligible Securities on Form S-3, then the Elliott Parties shall have the right to request that the Company file with the SEC a registration statement (a “ Demand Registration Statement ” and, together with the Shelf Registration Statement, a “ Registration Statement ”) on the appropriate form for an offering to be made as promptly as practicable after the effective date of such Demand Registration Statement covering the resale of all or a portion of the Eligible Securities and no other securities, by delivering a written request therefor to the Company specifying the number of shares of Eligible Securities to be registered (a “ Demand Registration ”), and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file such Demand Registration Statement as expeditiously as possible but in any event within thirty (30) days of such request and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Demand Registration Statement, in a form permitting registration of such Eligible Securities for resale by the Elliott Parties in the manner or manners designated by them in such written request (but excluding underwritten offerings or similar transactions), to become effective in respect of each Demand Registration; provided , that (A) no more than an aggregate of two (2) Demand Registration requests shall be permitted under this letter agreement and (B) the Company shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations for a Demand Registration pursuant to this sentence if such Demand Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC or becomes effective upon filing with the SEC and remains effective until the earlier of the date when all Eligible Securities thereunder have been sold and ninety (90) days from the effective date of such Demand Registration Statement. The Company shall not be required to maintain in effect more than one registration at any one time pursuant to this letter agreement.

(b)           The obligations of the Company to effect or maintain any registration pursuant to paragraph 1 of this letter agreement will be subject to the following additional conditions: (a) the Elliott Parties shall furnish to the Company such information with respect to the Elliott Parties, the Eligible Securities or the distribution of such Eligible Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing, to the extent the Company reasonably determines is required by the Securities Act or under any state securities or “blue sky” laws or requested by the SEC (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any registration statement, amendment thereto, prospectus, post-effective amendment or response to comments from the staff of the SEC) and shall promptly notify the Company of any changes in such information; and (b) the Elliott Parties shall not use any Free Writing Prospectus in connection with the sale of the Eligible Securities without the prior written consent of the Company.

(c)           In connection with the Company’s obligations pursuant to paragraph (a) above and paragraph 3, subject to the terms of this letter agreement (including paragraph 4(a)), until the earliest of (i) the first date when all Eligible Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold, (ii) the first date on which there are no longer any Eligible Securities and (iii) the End Date, the Company shall, subject to the limitations set forth in this letter agreement, use its reasonable best efforts to:

i.            prepare and file the required Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement required for a Shelf Take-Down, including all exhibits and financial statements required under the Securities Act to be filed therewith, and before filing with the SEC the Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, (A) furnish to the Elliott Parties copies of the Registration Statement or any such prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, prepared to be filed, which shall be subject to the review and reasonable comment of the Elliott Parties and their counsel, and provide the Elliott Parties and their counsel reasonable time to review and comment thereon, and (B) not file with the SEC the Registration Statement or any prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto to which the Elliott Parties shall reasonably object (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the foregoing obligations shall not apply to any filings or documents incorporated by reference into any Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto);

ii.           promptly notify the Elliott Parties and, if requested, provide copies of the relevant documents, of any comments (written or oral) by the SEC or any request (written or oral) by the SEC or any other governmental authority for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or such prospectus (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the foregoing obligations shall not apply to any filings or documents incorporated by reference into any Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto);

iii.          promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the Elliott Parties reasonably request to have included therein relating to the plan of distribution with respect to the Eligible Securities;

v.           on or prior to the date on which the Registration Statement is declared effective or becomes effective, register or qualify, and cooperate with the Elliott Parties and their counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of, such Eligible Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of each state and other jurisdiction of the United States as any Elliott Party or their counsel reasonably request; provided that the Company will not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, to take any action which would subject it to taxation or general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or conform its capitalization or the composition of its assets at the time to the securities or blue sky laws of any such jurisdiction; and

vi.          take all other customary steps reasonably necessary or advisable to effect the registration of the Eligible Securities contemplated hereby on a resale Registration Statement.

(d)           if the existence of any fact or the happening of any event makes any statement of material fact made in any Registration Statement filed pursuant to this letter agreement or related prospectus untrue in any material respect, or requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement or prospectus so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and that, in the case of the prospectus, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided , that if such fact or event relates to any Blackout, the Company’s obligation pursuant to this paragraph 2(d) shall be limited to notice that such fact exists or such event has happened and the Company shall not be required to provide any description of, or information regarding, such fact or event or the nature or circumstances thereof; and

(e)           of any determination by the Company that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this letter agreement is required to be filed with the SEC.

4.              Blackout Periods/Suspension . (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this letter agreement, if at any time the Company reasonably determines (upon the advice of outside counsel) that the filing or amendment of any Registration Statement or any supplement or offering or sale of Eligible Securities pursuant thereto (or any disclosures required to be made in connection therewith) should be suspended due to material non-public information or other legal considerations (including any Scheduled Blackout) (a “ Blackout ”), the Company shall not be required, for the shortest period reasonably practicable (a “ Blackout Period ”), to effect or maintain any registration of Eligible Securities or make any filings or disclosures in furtherance thereof. Except in the case of Scheduled Blackouts, the Company shall, upon such determination, notify the Elliott Parties as promptly as practicable of such determination, and the Elliott Parties shall, upon receipt of notice of such Blackout from the Company (or, in the case of Scheduled Blackouts, during such Scheduled Blackouts), suspend sales of Eligible Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or using any prospectus or supplement thereto until the termination of the Blackout Period. Upon receiving notice of a Blackout, the Elliott Parties shall maintain the confidentiality of the existence (and circumstances, to the extent known) of the Blackout and shall not trade on the basis thereof. Except in the case of Scheduled Blackouts, the Company shall inform the Elliott Parties of the termination of a Blackout Period as promptly as practicable after such termination.  The date referenced in clause (A) of the definition of “End Date” shall be increased by the length of time of the aggregate duration of any Blackout Periods which occur prior to the End Date.

(b)           Upon receipt of notification of any event contemplated by paragraph 2 hereof, the Elliott Parties shall refrain from selling any Eligible Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement or using a prospectus or any supplement thereto (a “ Suspension ”) until the Elliott Parties have received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus prepared and filed by the Company, or until the Elliott Parties are advised in writing by the Company that the current prospectus or supplement thereto may be used. In the event of any Suspension, subject to paragraph 4(a) of this letter agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the availability for use of the Shelf Registration Statement (or any then-applicable Demand Registration Statement) and the prospectus to be resumed as promptly as practicable after delivery of the notification contemplated by paragraph 2 hereof. The date referenced in clause (A) of the definition of “End Date” shall be increased by the length of time of such Suspension. 

(c)           In the event of any Blackout Period or Suspension, the Company may impose, and, if applicable, the Elliott Parties shall comply with, stop transfer instructions with respect to the sale or transfer of Eligible Securities by the Elliott Parties until the end of the applicable Blackout Period or Suspension.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this letter agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to effect the registration of any Eligible Securities pursuant to this letter agreement unless Elliott shall have paid all SEC filing fees associated with such registration to the Company in advance of any such fees being due or payable.

8.              Indemnification . (a) The Company will, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless each Elliott Party and its directors, partners, officers, agents, advisors and employees, against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities, joint or several, actions or proceedings (whether commenced or threatened, and whether or not such indemnified party is a party thereto) (each a “ Loss ” and collectively, “ Losses ”) to which each such indemnified party may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, to the extent that such Losses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement filed hereunder under which Eligible Securities were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, any issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 of the Act) filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading; provided , however , that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, issuer Free Writing Prospectus, “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 of the Act), amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of an Elliott Party specifically for inclusion therein, or made in any Free Writing Prospectus or supplement used by or on behalf of an Elliott Party without the Company’s prior written consent, or (ii) any failure of an Elliott Party to comply with paragraphs 1(b), 4(a) or 4(b) or to use a supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated thereby.

(b)           Each Elliott Party (severally and not jointly) will, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents, advisors and employees, against any and all Losses to which each such indemnified party may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise to the extent such Losses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement filed hereunder under which Eligible Securities were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, any Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 of the Act) filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading, but only to the extent that such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and, in conformity with, information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Elliott Party specifically for inclusion therein, or was made in any Free Writing Prospectus or supplement used by or on behalf of an Elliott Party without the Company’s prior written consent, or (ii) any failure of an Elliott Party to comply with paragraphs 1(b), 4(a) or 4(b) or to use a supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated thereby.

(c)           Promptly after receipt by any indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in paragraphs (a) or (b) of this paragraph 8, the indemnified party will notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under paragraphs (a) or (b) of this paragraph 8 (except to the extent that is has been prejudiced by such failure). In case any such action, suit, claim or proceeding is brought against any indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent it may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with an actual conflict of interests or (ii) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party in connection with the defense of such suit, action, claim or proceeding (it being agreed that in either such case, the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel (plus local counsel as reasonably required) for all indemnified parties selected by a majority in interest of the indemnified parties shall be borne by the indemnifying party). Anything in this paragraph to the contrary notwithstanding, an indemnifying party shall not be liable for the settlement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the relevant indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding in respect of which such indemnified party is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are or could have been the subject matter of such claim, action, suit or proceeding, (y) does not include an admission of fault by or on behalf of such indemnified party and (z) involves solely the payment of monetary damages. Such indemnification shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party.

(d)           If for any reason the indemnity under this paragraph 8 is unavailable or is insufficient to hold harmless any indemnified party under paragraphs (a) or (b) of this paragraph 8, then the indemnifying parties shall contribute to the amount paid or payable to the indemnified party as a result of any loss, claim, expense, damage or liability (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof), and legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, expense, damage, liability, action or proceeding, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault and relative benefits of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other and other relevant equitable considerations.
