Arconic Shareholders Approve Delaware Reincorporation

November 30, 2017

Arconic Inc. (NYSE: ARNC) (the “Company”) announced today that shareholders have approved, at a special meeting held earlier today, the Company’s reincorporation from Pennsylvania to Delaware.

In order to effect the reincorporation, Arconic shareholders approved the merger of the Company with a newly formed subsidiary, incorporated in Delaware, which will be the surviving corporation and retain the Arconic Inc. name following the reincorporation. Shareholders also approved, on an advisory basis, the annual election of the full Arconic Board of Directors following the reincorporation and that the Company’s post-reincorporation certificate of incorporation will not contain any supermajority voting requirements.

Arconic currently expects the reincorporation merger to be effective on or about December 31, 2017.

Additional information about the reincorporation can be found in Arconic’s definitive proxy statement, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on October 16, 2017, available free of charge at the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov, or at www.arconic.com .
