Subject to applicable laws, including, without limitation, [Section 409A], the Committee may # require the mandatory deferral of some or all of an Award on terms established by the Committee or # permit a Participant to elect to defer a portion of an Award in accordance with the terms established under the Alcoa USA Corp. Deferred Compensation Plan as the same may be amended, or under any successor plan.

Deferred Amount. The amount of a Monthly Deferral Participant's Monthly Compensation that the Participant elects to defer in accordance with Section 4 hereof.

Amount; Form. Subject to the reductions, adjustments and limitations contained in [Section 3.4] and except as provided in Section 3.3(d), the monthly amount of an Officer’s income continuation Payments under this Plan is equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Officer’s Final Annual Cash Compensation. An Officer is entitled to income continuation Payments following the Officer’s Separation from Service and continuing for his or her Payment Period, subject to acceleration pursuant to Section 3.3(c) or earlier termination pursuant to Section 3.6. Although the amount of an Officer’s Payments is determined on a monthly basis, such monthly amount shall be converted to and made at the same frequency and time as compensation is payable under the Company’s standard payroll. With respect to any Payment under the Plan that is considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A, each Payment shall be considered a separate payment.

Reduced Amount. Under this Section 3.7, the payments under this Plan shall be reduced (but not below zero) so that the present value of such payments equals the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” (which may be zero) shall be an amount expressed in present value that maximizes the aggregate present value of payments under the Plan that can be made without causing any such payment to be subject to the excise tax under Code Section 4999.

Conversion Amount. The Conversion Amount shall be converted pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(ii) and Rule 144(d)(1)(ii) as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, into unrestricted shares at the Conversion Price.

Amount Payable. Upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right related to an Option, the Grantee shall be entitled to receive an amount determined by multiplying # the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise of such Stock Appreciation Right over the per Share purchase price under the related Option, by # the number of Shares as to which such Stock Appreciation Right is being exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may limit in any manner the amount payable with respect to any Stock Appreciation Right by including such a limit in the Agreement evidencing the Stock Appreciation Right at the time it is granted.

Amount Payable. The Committee shall establish a target amount for each Participant that would be payable if each of the applicable performance objectives are 100% achieved. Except as provided in Section 4(e), the amount actually payable in respect of any performance objective shall be determined based on the extent to which such objective (or such objective and any other linked performance objective) is met or exceeded, or the extent to which such objective(s) are only partially achieved. The Committee may provide that amounts below or in excess of target will be payable for performance in excess of, or at stated levels below, targeted performance. The Committee may establish a threshold level of achievement for any performance objective below which no amount shall be payable in respect of such performance objective.

Maximum Amount. The maximum aggregate incentive amount of any Award that may be earned under the Plan by a Participant for all Performance Periods beginning in any given fiscal year of the Company shall be $9,000,000.

Retirement Benefit. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, Stecko’s Retirement Benefit under [Section 2.1] shall be equal to the product of Stecko’s final average compensation, multiplied by his years of service, multiplied by (.0167). For purposes of this Appendix A: # “final average compensation” shall mean Stecko’s average base salary plus average bonus in the three of his final five years of service during which his base salary and bonus, determined independently, were highest; and # “years of service” shall equal five (5) plus the elapsed time from April 12, 1999 until Stecko’s termination of service. Stecko’s Retirement Benefit shall not be reduced by his PCA Pension Plan Benefit, Pactiv Pension Plan Benefit or Pactiv SERP Benefit, and shall be nonforfeitable without regard to his reason for terminating Service. If distribution of Stecko’s Retirement Benefit commences prior to age 62, a 4% per year reduction will apply.

Death Benefit. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, upon Stecko’s death, the actuarial equivalent of his remaining Retirement Benefit, if any shall be payable in a lump sum to # his Surviving Spouse, # if there is no Surviving Spouse, then to his living children in equal portions, or # if none of Stecko’s children survives him, then to his estate.
