Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 24, 2020, Alcoa Corporation (the "Company") and Alcoa Nederland Holding B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Borrower"), entered into Amendment No. 3 (the "Amendment") to the Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of September 16, 2016, as amended as of October 26, 2016, as amended and restated as of November 14, 2017 and as amended and restated as of November 21, 2018, as amended on August 16, 2019 and as amended as of April 21, 2020 (the "Original Revolving Credit Agreement"), in each case with a syndicate of lenders and issuers named therein, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Administrative Agent") for the lenders and issuers. The Amendment was entered into to amend certain terms of the Original Revolving Credit Agreement (the Original Revolving Credit Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, the "Amended Revolving Credit Agreement").

The Amended Revolving Credit Agreement provides additional flexibility to the Company and the Borrower by (i) adjusting certain financial definitions by permitting the Company to add back into the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement) non-cash expenses during the relevant period in connection with non-service net periodic benefit costs in an amount not to exceed $125,000,000 with respect to any consecutive four fiscal quarter period, and (ii) temporarily adjusting, for up to the next consecutive four full fiscal quarters, the manner in which Consolidated Cash Interest Expense (as defined in the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement) and Total Indebtedness (as defined in the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement) are calculated with respect to, and providing for cash netting for certain periods with the net proceeds of, certain senior notes issuances, if any, during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020 (the changes in clause (ii), "Temporary Amendments"). If the Borrower chooses to extend the Temporary Amendments to apply to either or both of the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, doing so would also reduce the borrowing availability under the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement by one-third of the net proceeds of such note issuances during such fiscal quarters. The aggregate amount of commitments under the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement remains at $1.5 billion.

Under the terms of the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement, the Borrower paid to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each lender which timely entered into the Amendment, an amount equal to 0.05% of the amount of such lender's commitment under the Original Revolving Credit Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Amendment. The Amended Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants, and events of default substantially comparable to the Original Credit Agreement. The obligations of the Company or its subsidiaries under the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement, and all other obligations under the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement, are guaranteed and secured in the same manner as the Original Revolving Credit Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement were made only for purposes of that agreement and as of specific dates and were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement. Information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement.
