	5.5	 Tenant Provided Services Credit. To the extent that Tenant provides Landlord the Tenant Provided
Services during the Lease Term in accordance with the terms herein, Tenant will receive a credit against the amount of Rent due in accordance with Exhibits I-1 through

Section 6 Minerals. 
  

	6.1	 Mineral Estate. Landlord excepts and excludes the Mineral Estate from the Leased Premises. Nothing in
this Lease shall be construed as granting Tenant any right, title or interest in the Mineral Estate. 



  
 18 














	6.2	 Disclaimer Regarding Mineral Estate. Landlord makes no warranties or representations concerning the
quantity of the Mineral Estate owned by Landlord, or whether or not a portion of the Mineral Estate is owned by others. Similarly, Landlord makes no warranties or representations concerning any Mineral Agreements that may burden or affect the Leased
Premises. It is Tenant’s sole responsibility to satisfy itself as to the ownership of the Mineral Estate and the status of any and all Mineral Agreements purporting to burden or affect the Leased Premises. 



 

	6.3	 Landlord Waiver of Surface Rights. As to any portion of the Mineral Estate owned by Landlord, and to the
extent Landlord’s interest in the Mineral Estate is not subject to Mineral Agreements that are in force and effect as of the Effective Date, Landlord waives, for the Lease Term, Landlord’s rights to conduct surface operations on the Leased
Premises for the development of the Mineral Estate, including using the surface of the Leased Premises in exploring for, testing for, drilling for, extracting, producing, taking, processing, storing or otherwise developing coal, oil, gas or other
hydrocarbons, or any other minerals of any kind or nature. Landlord will not enter into any new lease or other conveyance granting any third party the right to conduct surface operations on the Leased Premises during the Lease Term in violation of
the preceding sentence, unless Tenant has provided Landlord its prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Nothing herein prohibits Landlord from the development of the Mineral Estate, any environmental
air space rights or wind resources rights from surface locations on property other than the Leased Premises (“Offsite Locations”), or by drilling wells beneath the Leased Premises from Offsite Locations, provided that such
activities do not hinder or interfere with Tenant’s operations upon, create any waste or nuisance upon, or result in any damage or loss to, the Leased Premises or the improvements or facilities thereon, including, without limitation, the
Rolling Mill. 


 Section 7 Title, Survey and Entitlements. 

 

	7.1	 Title. 


  

	 	(a)	 This Lease is made subject to the Permitted Liens. Tenant covenants with Landlord that in Tenant’s

	 	(b)	 Landlord has, as of the Effective Date, delivered to Tenant a title insurance commitment or title report for
the Leased Premises dated not earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the Effective Date, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense. Landlord agrees to reasonably cooperate with Tenant in obtaining any updates or additional title insurance
commitments or title reports. 


  

	 	(c)	 Upon request from time to time by Tenant, Landlord shall reasonably and diligently cooperate with Tenant in
resolving title issues or similar matters that (i) are not Permitted Liens or (ii) otherwise adversely affect the Leased Premises, including providing affidavits of non-production with respect to
specific Mineral Agreements, provided that Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs in connection with such cooperation except in
connection with the resolution of matters caused or contributed to by Landlord. 



  
 19 














	7.2	 Entitlements. 



 

	 	(a)	 Landlord agrees to reasonably cooperate with Tenant, at Tenant’s sole expense, in applying to any public
agency for land use entitlements or permits necessary or convenient for the operation of the Rolling Mill on the Leased Premises, including general plan amendments, specific plans, zoning changes, tentative and final maps, conditional use permits,
variances, rights of way, grading permits, foundation permits, building permits, stormwater drainage permits, driveway entrance permits and similar construction and operating permits. 



 

	 	(b)	 Landlord authorizes the County, and the County’s agents, consultants and employees, to enter the Leased
Premises, when acting in accordance with Landlord’s and Tenant’s safety and security rules, for the purpose of making inspections necessary or convenient to the issuance of land use entitlements or permits required for the operation of the
Rolling Mill on the Leased Premises. The rights and agreements set forth in this Section 7.2(b) shall automatically expire upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 



 

	7.3	 Survey. Landlord has, as of the Effective Date, provided a boundary survey of the Leased Premises to
Tenant dated not earlier than six (6) months prior to the Effective Date, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense. Tenant may, at its sole cost, update such survey or have a new survey of the Leased Premises completed. 



Section 8 Taxes. 
  

	8.1	 Real Property Taxes.  



 

	 	(a)	 During the Lease Term, Tenant shall be responsible for the ad valorem taxes (including rollback taxes) assessed
on and allocable to the Leased Premises, the Rolling Mill and any other improvements thereon (but not for any ad valorem or other taxes assessed on and allocable to the Mineral Estate, the Adjacent Premises or the Access Areas, for which Landlord
shall be solely responsible) that are attributable to the time period from the Effective Date until the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, prorated for any partial tax years, and payable upon receipt of an invoice directly from the
taxing authority or from Landlord, as the case may be. All sums payable by Tenant under this Section 8.1 shall be paid without notice (except as provided in Section 8.1(d)), demand, counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense and without
abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction, except as expressly provided herein. 


  

	 	(b)	 Tenant shall have no liability for inheritance and succession taxes, franchise and corporate taxes, estate and
gift taxes, documentary transfer (stamp) taxes arising as a result of Landlord’s transfer of title to the Leased Premises, Landlord’s federal and state income taxes, or other taxes applied or measured by Landlord’s general or net
income. 



  
 20 














	 	(c)	 Should any real property ad valorem taxes payable by Tenant become delinquent, Landlord may, at its option, pay
the same, in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord the amounts so paid within twenty (20) days after receiving an invoice therefor, after which period such delinquent amounts shall bear interest at the Default Rate until the date of
reimbursement by Tenant. 


  

	 	(d)	 Each Party shall provide the other Party, promptly upon receipt, a copy of all tax bills and invoices received
from any taxing authority in connection with any real property ad valorem taxes for which the other Party is responsible. Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant to cause copies of all ad valorem tax bills for the Leased Premises to be sent
directly to Tenant. 


  

	 	(e)	 Landlord, with the cooperation of Tenant but at no external cost payable by Landlord to any third party, shall
use reasonable efforts to have the Leased Premises assessed separately for property tax purposes from the balance of Landlord’s real property. If the Leased Premises are not so separately assessed, Tenant’s share of the real property tax
liability will be an equitable proportion of the real property taxes for all of the land and improvements included within the tax parcel assessed, such proportion to be reasonably determined by mutual agreement of Landlord and Tenant from the
respective valuations assigned in the assessor’s work sheets or such other information as may be reasonably available. 


  

	8.2	 Personal Property Taxes. Tenant will pay prior to delinquency all taxes assessed against and levied upon
trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal property of Tenant contained in the Leased Premises. When possible, Landlord and Tenant shall, at no external cost payable by Landlord to any third party, cause such trade fixtures,
furnishings, equipment and all other personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real property of Landlord. If any of Tenant’s personal property is assessed with Landlord’s real property, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
the taxes attributable to Tenant’s personal property within twenty (20) days after the mutual agreement of Landlord and Tenant of the taxes applicable to Tenant’s personal property. 



 

	8.3	 Refunds and Contests. 



 

	 	(a)	 Any refunds or rebates of amounts paid by Tenant to Landlord or a third party pursuant to this Section 8
will belong to Tenant, and Landlord shall reasonably aid Tenant in obtaining any such refund or rebate, provided that all costs of obtaining the same shall be paid by Tenant. 



 

	 	(b)	 Tenant may, in its own name and at its own cost, contest any tax for which Tenant is responsible under this
Section 8. Landlord may, at Landlord’s expense, participate in any such contest by Tenant to the extent that such taxes are not separately assessed. Landlord reserves the right to contest any such tax that Tenant does not elect to contest,
and Tenant may, at Tenant’s expense, participate in any such contest by Landlord if such taxes are assessed in whole or in part against the Leased Premises. Landlord and Tenant will reasonably cooperate with each other in the event that either
elects to challenge any tax assessment for which it has liability under this Section 8, and no contest of any tax shall be reason for either Party to delay payment of the taxes subject to the contest if such payment is required




  
 21 














	 	
by Applicable Law to avoid interest or penalty. If the Leased Premises are not separately assessed, the benefits of any successful tax proceeding applicable to both the Leased Premises and other
lands or estates owned by Landlord shall be applied (i) first, toward the payment of Landlord’s and Tenant’s attorneys’ fees, court costs and other reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such proceeding, and (ii) second, toward the reimbursement of taxes paid by Landlord and Tenant,
pro rata as between Landlord and Tenant in accordance with the Landlord’s and Tenant’s respective shares of the new assessed value of the applicable lands or estates (i.e., Tenant’s share shall be represented by the value that
the Leased Premises bears to the overall value of the assessed lands or estates, as determined in accordance with the methodology set forth in Section 8.1 above, and Landlord’s share shall be 100% less Tenant’s
share). 

  

	 	(c)	 Except as provided in Section 8.1, nothing in this Lease may be construed to require either Party to pay
any tax of any kind that is or may be imposed upon the other Party. 


 Section 9 Compliance with Laws, Permits and Other
Requirements. 
  

	9.1	 Requirements. During the Lease Term, Tenant shall comply with all Applicable Law (including any
obligations of Tenant under Exhibit K to comply with Applicable Law) applicable to the Leased Premises and Access Areas and Tenant’s rights and obligations in respect thereof (including for provision of Tenant Provided Services), and comply in
all material respects with all other Requirements applicable to the Leased Premises and Access Areas and Tenant’s rights and obligations in respect thereof (including for provision of Tenant Provided Services). Likewise, during the Lease Term,
Landlord shall (and, as applicable, cause its Affiliates to) comply with all Applicable Law applicable to the Adjacent Premises, Access Areas and Mineral Estate and Landlord’s rights and obligations in respect thereof (including for provision
of Support Services), and comply in all material respects with all other Requirements applicable to the Adjacent Premises, Access Areas and Mineral Estate and Landlord’s rights and obligations in respect thereof (including for provision of
Support Services). 


  

	9.2	 Right to Contest. Tenant may, after prior written notice to Landlord, contest by appropriate legal
proceedings (which must be conducted by Tenant diligently and in good faith in the name of Landlord or Tenant or both and without out-of-pocket cost or expense to
Landlord) the validity or applicability of any Applicable Law affecting the Leased Premises so long as, during any such contest (and thereafter if Tenant is unsuccessful), Tenant continues to comply with the contested Applicable Law.



  

	9.3	 Governmental Request for Information. If any Governmental Entity requests information with respect to
the use of the Leased Premises or access to the Leased Premises, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost, cooperate with Landlord in providing such information and shall promptly and accurately complete any questionnaires, affidavits or other forms
of transmitting information as may be required and shall allow access to the Leased Premises to Landlord, its agents, employees, independent contractors and representatives of a Governmental Entity at reasonable times, upon reasonable telephonic or
written notice (provided that Tenant shall not be required to provide access to Landlord or its agents other than in accordance with Section 2.9 or to the extent required by the applicable Governmental Entity). A
representative of Tenant will have the right to participate and accompany such Persons in such visits and inspections under all circumstances, at Tenant’s sole cost. 



  
 22 














	9.4	 Hazardous Substances. Without limiting the generality of the forgoing: 



 

	 	(a)	 Neither Tenant nor any employee, agent, contractor or invitee of Tenant (a “Tenant Party”) may
use, handle, store, generate, manufacture, transport, discharge or release any Hazardous Substances in, on or under the Leased Premises, except that Tenant may use, handle, store, generate, transport, discharge or Release in compliance with
Environmental Law, such Hazardous Substances as are necessary for Tenant’s Operations as determined by Tenant in its reasonable discretion for the conduct of Tenant’s Operations on the Leased Premises. Tenant shall be responsible for
compliance with Environmental Law with respect to the solid waste management units on the Leased Premises as set forth in Exhibit M. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord, and provide copies promptly after receipt, of all written complaints,
claims, citations, demands, inquiries, reports and notices relating to compliance or non-compliance with Applicable Law at the Leased Premises, or the use, handling, storage, generation, transportation,
discharge or Release of Hazardous Substances in, on or under the Leased Premises by a Tenant Party; provided, however, that Landlord’s receipt of any of the foregoing will in no way create or impose any duty or obligation upon Landlord to
respond thereto. To the extent required by applicable Environmental Law, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, promptly remove or otherwise remediate all Hazardous Substances for which Tenant is responsible under this
Section 9.4(a). 


  

	 	(b)	 If Tenant fails to timely and fully perform any of the work described in the last sentence of
Section 9.4(a), and Landlord gives to Tenant written notice of such failure and Tenant either (x) fails to commence curing such failure within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord’s notice (or such
longer period as may be mutually agreeable to the Parties), or (y) commences to cure such failure within thirty (30) days (or such longer mutually agreeable period) after receipt of Landlord’s notice but fails after such thirty (30)-day (or longer) period to continue to implement such cure through completion (in either case, an “Environmental Failure”), Landlord may, after reasonable advance notice to Tenant, in
Landlord’s sole discretion and to the exclusion of Tenant, cause the cleanup, removal or other remedial work required by Environmental Law to be performed and, in such event, Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by
Landlord in connection therewith to Landlord as part of Tenant’s indemnity obligations under Section 13.1 with interest at the Default Rate from the date of payment by Landlord until the date of reimbursement by
Tenant. If Landlord elects to cause the necessary cleanup, removal or other remedial work to be performed as provided above, Tenant hereby waives any claim or right that it may have to any damages for any injury or inconvenience with Tenant’s
business or loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment or any other loss occasioned by the performance of such work. 



  
 23 














	 	(c)	 Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with access on reasonable prior request to all records, inventories,
material safety data sheets, plans, registrations, filings, manifests, notices, disclosures, warnings and other documents required by any Requirements to be filed, made, given or maintained with respect to or as a result of the presence, use,
transportation, or Release of Hazardous Substances on, to or from the Leased Premises (collectively, “Hazardous Substances Records”); provided, however, that Landlord’s receipt of any Hazardous Substances Records will in no way
create or impose any duty or obligation on the part of Landlord with respect to the Hazardous Substances so disclosed or with respect to any other matter. 


  

	 	(d)	 Landlord and its designated representatives may enter the Leased Premises in accordance with
Section 2.9(a) for the purpose of investigating the condition of the Leased Premises and for verifying compliance by Tenant with this Lease, and Landlord may employ experts and consultants in connection therewith to advise Landlord with respect
to Tenant’s activities. The costs of any such investigations will be paid by Landlord except that Tenant will be obligated to pay for the reasonable costs of any such investigation if (i) the reason for the investigation is (1) the
Release or threat of a Release of Hazardous Substances or other contamination on, to or from the Leased Premises caused or permitted to occur by Tenant, whether or not an inspection is ordered by a Governmental Entity, or (2) default by Tenant
under this Lease or (ii) the investigation otherwise reveals any Pollution Condition at the Leased Premises that was caused or permitted to occur by Tenant. If Landlord is obligated to pay for such investigation, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord
for the investigation costs within thirty (30) days after receiving an invoice therefor. 


  

	 	(e)	 Should any claim or action be brought against Landlord in connection with Hazardous Substances related to the
Leased Premises, Landlord shall immediately notify Tenant in writing. 


  

	 	(f)	 If during the Lease Term, Tenant identifies any material non-compliance
with Environmental Law at the Rolling Mill, Tenant will promptly notify Landlord and will pursue corrective action as required by applicable Environmental Law. 



 

	 	(g)	 Tenant’s obligations under this Section 9.4, including remediation obligations, will survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 


 Section 10 Default and Remedies. 

 

	10.1	 Tenant Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an event of default (an
“Event of Default”) by Tenant hereunder: 


  

	 	(a)	 Tenant fails to pay any amount due and payable under this Lease (including amounts owed by Tenant under
Section 10.3(b)(iv)) within fifteen (15) days following receipt of written notice of the amount due and, following the expiration of such fifteen (15)-day period, Landlord delivers to Tenant a second
written notice of such past due amount, together with the statement set forth below in bold, capital letters, with not less than 12-point font at the top of the first page of such notice, and Tenant
furthermore fails to pay such past due amount within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such second notice: 



  
 24 













 “THIS IS A NOTICE OF A PENDING EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER THE GROUND LEASE AGREEMENT,
DATED MARCH [__], 2021, WITH RESPECT TO THE ROLLING MILL LOCATED IN WARRICK COUNTY, INDIANA. SHOULD TENANT FAIL TO PAY THE PAST-DUE AMOUNT SET FORTH IN THIS NOTICE WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS
DAYS AFTER TENANT’S RECEIPT HEREOF, LANDLORD MAY DECLARE AN EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER THE GROUND LEASE AGREEMENT.” 
  

	 	(b)	 (i) A petition in bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding against Tenant that is not dismissed within ninety
(90) days, (ii) Tenant files a petition or answer pertaining to Tenant’s seeking relief under any provision of any Bankruptcy Law, (iii) an assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, (iv) Tenant files a petition or other
proceeding for the appointment of a trustee, receiver or liquidator of Tenant, or (v) a proceeding by any Governmental Authority for dissolution or liquidation of Tenant which is not dismissed within ninety (90) days (any such case, a
“Bankruptcy Default”). 


  

	 	(c)	 A Transfer in contravention of Section 14. 



 

	 	(d)	 An Environmental Failure. 



 

	 	(e)	 Except as set forth above in this Section 10.1, a failure of Tenant to meet its non-monetary obligations under this Lease in any material respects where the failure is not cured within ninety (90) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord (or, if the failure is of a type which is
not reasonably possible to cure within ninety (90) days, Tenant has not commenced to cure the failure within ninety (90) days after receipt of notice of default, or commences to cure such failure within such ninety (90)-day period but does not thereafter diligently pursue such cure to completion). 


  

	 	(f)	 A material breach by Tenant or Initial Guarantor beyond the applicable notice and cure period under or related
to the section of the Metal Supply Agreement entitled “Quantity” or “Payment Terms”. 


  

	 	(g)	 An uncured breach beyond applicable notice and cure periods by Initial Guarantor or any other guarantor under a
Lease Guaranty. 


  

	10.2	 Waiver. 


  

	 	(a)	 A waiver by Landlord of any Event of Default under this Lease shall not prevent the right of Landlord to
forfeit this Lease or declare the existence of an Event of Default and pursue any other available remedy hereunder or at law or in equity for any other cause permitted herein, or for the same cause occurring at any other time.




  
 25 














	 	
The receipt by Landlord from Tenant of payments after the occurrence of any Event of Default, or the continued recognition by Landlord of Tenant as its tenant after the occurrence of any Event of
Default, shall not be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right of forfeiture or other remedies. Receipt and acceptance by Landlord of any amounts tendered by Tenant shall not constitute an agreement by Landlord that the amounts are the proper
amounts due or a waiver of Landlord’s claims for greater amounts. All payments by Tenant to Landlord shall apply first to the items longest past due. 

  

	 	(b)	 A waiver by Tenant of any breach of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease shall not prevent the right of
Tenant to enforce such obligations or declare the existence of such breach and pursue any available remedy hereunder or at law or in equity for any other cause permitted herein, or for the same cause occurring at any other time.



  

	10.3	 Remedies. 


  

	 	(a)	 Termination. 


  


	 	(i)	 If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing beyond the applicable cure period specified in
Section 10.1, if any, Landlord may, at its election and subject to Landlord’s exercise of the Put in accordance with Section 17.2 and Tenant’s right to acquire the Landlord’s fee interest in the Leased
Premises in accordance with Section 17.3, then or thereafter while any such Event of Default continues and notwithstanding the fact that Landlord may have some other remedy hereunder or at law or in equity, give Tenant
written notice of Landlord’s intention to terminate this Lease on the date specified in such notice, which shall be not less than thirty (30) days after the giving of notice, and upon the date so specified, this Lease and the estate hereby
granted will expire and terminate with the same force and effect as if the date specified in such notice were the date herein before fixed for the expiration of this Lease, and all rights of Tenant hereunder will expire and terminate, and Tenant
will be liable as provided herein. 


  

	 	(ii)	 Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law, Landlord
will have the right of re-entry and possession of the Leased Premises, and the right to remove all persons and property therefrom, and Landlord may, at its option, recover all payments due hereunder.



  

	 	(iii)	 In the event of a termination under Section 10.3(a)(i), Landlord shall be entitled to
recover from Tenant, as and for liquidated damages, the discounted to present value at a discount rate equal to 6% of the Base Rent and Support Services Fees that would have been due during the unexpired portion of the then current Lease Term (i.e.,
through the end of the Initial Term, the then-current Lease Term Extension Period or the end of the next succeeding December 31 if termination occurs during the
Year-to-Year Continuation Period, as applicable). 



  
 26 














	 	(b)	 Self-Help Rights; Right of Entry. 



 

	 	(i)	 In the event of any Event of Default that is curable by Landlord, Landlord may, at its option, and without
waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligation hereunder, perform the obligation Tenant has failed to perform and take such other actions as Landlord may reasonably determine are appropriate or necessary to address such Event of Default, entering
the Leased Premises in order to do so if necessary in accordance with Section 2.9. 


  

	 	(ii)	 Landlord shall, in accordance with Section 2.9, give Tenant prior written notice
(unless infeasible due to an emergency) of any self-help actions taken by Landlord in accordance with this Section 10.3(b). 


  

	 	(iii)	 Landlord’s exercise of its right of entry under this Section 10.3(b) will be
without prejudice to any of Landlord’s other rights or remedies hereunder. 


  

	 	(iv)	 All reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any performance pursuant to this Section 10.3(b), including costs and expenses incurred in
any action or proceeding to enforce any obligation of Tenant under this Lease, will be for the account of Tenant and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand, together with interest at the Default Rate from the date paid by Landlord until the
date of reimbursement by Tenant. 


  

	 	(c)	 No Repossession or Reletting Without Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Lease, to the extent consistent with Applicable Law, unless and until Landlord terminates this Lease in accordance with Section 10.3(a) and Landlord declines or fails to exercise the Put upon termination in accordance with
Section 17.2 and Tenant declines or fails to exercise its option to acquire the Leased Premises upon termination in accordance with Section 17.3, Landlord shall not be permitted to retake
possession of, relet or re-enter the Leased Premises on account of any Event of Default or abandonment by Tenant of the Leased Premises, other than such entries as are permitted under and performed in
accordance with Section 2.9. 


  

	 	(d)	 Damages. Should there be an Event of Default with respect to any breach by Tenant of its monetary
obligations hereunder, Landlord shall be entitled to seek its actual, direct monetary damages for any such delinquent monetary obligations by an action for damages in an appropriate court of law in accordance with Applicable Law, together with any
costs and fees Landlord may be permitted to seek in connection therewith pursuant to Section 10.5. 



  
 27 














	 	(e)	 Injunctive Relief. Landlord is entitled, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, to injunctive relief
in case of the violation, or attempted or threatened violation, of any material provision of this Lease, or to a decree compelling observance or performance of any material provision of this Lease, or to any other equitable remedy with respect to
the violation or attempted or threatened violation of a material provision of this Lease. 


  

	10.4	 Remedies Not Exclusive. Subject to Section 10.3(c), no right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy with respect to any breach by Tenant of the terms and conditions of this Lease, and every right and remedy is cumulative and in addition to any other
legal or equitable right or remedy, now or hereafter existing. 


  

	10.5	 Attorneys’ Fees. The prevailing Party in any mediation, arbitration or litigation
undertaken in connection with any default under this Lease shall be entitled to be paid its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in
connection therewith by the losing Party, including such costs and fees as may be incurred on appeal, in any probate or bankruptcy proceeding, and in any petition for review, and including costs and fees as are incurred in connection with
adjudication of any issues that are particular to such types of proceedings. 


  

	10.6	 Indemnification Unaffected. Nothing in this Section 10 may be deemed to affect the right of
Landlord or Tenant to indemnification as set forth in Section 13 of this Lease. 


 Section 11 Termination
Right. 
  

	11.1	 Termination Option. Within ten (10) days following the cessation of Tenant’s Operations,
Tenant shall give notice to Landlord that such operations have ceased, including the date on which such operations ceased. Such notice will further specify whether the cessation of Tenant’s Operations is considered by Tenant to be temporary or
permanent. Each Party shall be granted the option to terminate this Lease (“Termination Option”) upon the last day of a consecutive three (3)-year period following the date Tenant’s operations at the Rolling Mill ceased if
Tenant has failed to restart operations during such period. 


  

	11.2	 Notice of Termination. Either Party may trigger the Termination Option by sending written notice to the
other Party at any time after the Termination Option accrues in accordance with Section 11.1. Notwithstanding the forgoing, in the event the Termination Option accrues in accordance with Section 11.1, and neither Party triggers such
Termination Option prior to Tenant restarting its operations at the Rolling Mill, such Termination Option shall expire. 


  

	11.3	 Certain Other Rights and Obligations Not Affected. For the avoidance of doubt, the termination of this
Lease by Landlord or Tenant pursuant to this Section 11 will not deprive Landlord or Tenant of their rights under Sections 17.2 or 17.3, respectively, or relieve Tenant of its obligations under Section 21.

	13.1	 Tenant Indemnification. 



 

	 	(a)	 The Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Landlord and its agents, officers, shareholders,
Affiliates, directors and employees and its and their successors and assigns (collectively, “Landlord Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses incurred by such Landlord Indemnitees to the extent arising or resulting
directly or indirectly from or in connection with any of the following occurring from and after the Effective Date, in each case to the extent not constituting Retained Liabilities (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement): (i) any Release
of Hazardous Substances at, on, under or from the Leased Premises or any Access Area to the extent caused or contributed to by the Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, invitees or visitors or any other persons or entities
claiming under the Tenant, and to the extent such Release is not caused or contributed to by Landlord or a Landlord Indemnitee hereunder; (ii) any actual or alleged violation of any Environmental Law or contractual obligation relating to any
Environmental Law to the extent caused or contributed to by Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, invitees or visitors or any other persons or entities claiming under the Tenant, including but not limited to the extent of any
violation of Landlord’s NPDES permit by Tenant’s Wastewater or Stormwater, in each case to the extent such violation is not caused or contributed to by Landlord or a Landlord Indemnitee hereunder; (iii) the occupancy, use,
improvement, alteration or maintenance of the Leased Premises 



  
 30 














	 	
or any Access Area by Tenant, its officers, employees, representatives, agents, contractors, subcontractors, or any other persons claiming under the Tenant; (iv) any activity, work or thing
done, permitted or suffered by the Tenant on or about the Leased Premises or any Access Area in connection with Tenant’s Operations, and (v) any negligence or willful misconduct of the Tenant, its officers, employees, representatives,
agents, contractors, subcontractors, invitees or visitors, or any other person claiming under the Tenant, on or about the Leased Premises or any Access Area, including, without limitation, any and all liabilities and damages related to or connected
with personal injury (including death of any person) or property damage; provided, that Tenant shall not be responsible for any Losses arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Landlord Indemnitee. This indemnification provision
shall survive the termination or expiration of the Lease. 

  

	 	(c)	 In the event any action or proceeding within the scope of Tenant’s foregoing indemnification is threatened
or commenced against a Landlord Indemnitee, Tenant, upon notice from such Landlord Indemnitee, shall defend such threatened or commenced action or proceeding at Tenant’s expense by counsel of Tenant’s choice, reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord Indemnitee, and the Landlord Indemnitee shall cooperate with Tenant in such defense. If Tenant is providing defense as required hereunder and any Landlord Indemnitee agrees to settle any matter for which Tenant is providing defense under
its indemnity without approval of Tenant, then, provided Tenant’s approval is not unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Tenant shall not be liable for such settlement as part of any Losses claimed by such Landlord Indemnitee hereunder.
The obligations of Tenant under this Section 13.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 


  

	 	(d)	 Tenant’s indemnity obligations in this Section 13.1 are in addition to and without limitation of the
Initial Guarantor’s indemnity obligations in Article IX of the Purchase Agreement. 


  

	13.2	 Landlord Indemnification. 



 

	 	(a)	 Landlord shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless Tenant and its agents, officers, shareholders,

with any of the following occurring from and after the Effective Date, in each case to the extent not constituting Assumed Liabilities (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement): (i) any Release of Hazardous Substances at, on, under or from
the Leased Premises, Access Areas or Mineral Estate to the extent caused or contributed to by the Landlord, its employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, invitees or visitors or any other persons or entities claiming under the Landlord, and
any Release of Hazardous Substances at, on, under or from the Adjacent Premises, except to the extent caused or contributed to by Tenant or any Tenant Indemnitee; (ii) any actual or alleged violation of any Environmental Law or contractual
obligation relating to any Environmental Law caused or contributed 



  
 31 














	 	
to by Landlord, its employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, invitees or visitors or any other persons or entities claiming under the Landlord; (iii) the occupancy, use, improvement,
alteration or maintenance of the Adjacent Premises, the Mineral Estate and the Access Areas by Landlord, its officers, employees, representatives, agents, contractors, subcontractors, or any other persons claiming under the Landlord; (iv) any
activity, work or thing done, permitted or suffered by the Landlord on or about the Adjacent Premises, the Mineral Estate and the Access Areas in connection with Landlord’s Operations or Landlord’s use thereof or activities thereon; and
(v) any negligence or willful misconduct of the Landlord, its officers, employees, representatives, agents, contractors, subcontractors, invitees or visitors, or any other person claiming under the Landlord, on or about the Leased Premises, the
Adjacent Premises, the Mineral Estate and the Access Areas, including, without limitation, any and all liabilities and damages related to or connected with personal injury (including death of any person) or property damage; provided, that Landlord
shall not be responsible for any Losses arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Tenant Indemnitee. 

  

	 	(b)	 In case any action or proceeding within the scope of Landlord’s foregoing indemnification is threatened or
commenced against a Tenant Indemnitee, Landlord, upon notice from such Tenant Indemnitee, shall defend such threatened or commenced action or proceeding at Landlord’s expense by counsel of Landlord’s choice, reasonably acceptable to the
Tenant Indemnitee, and the Tenant Indemnitee shall cooperate with Landlord in such defense. If Landlord is providing defense as required hereunder and any Tenant Indemnitee agrees to settle any matter for which Landlord is providing defense under
its indemnity without approval of Landlord, then, provided Landlord’s approval is not unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Landlord shall not be liable for such settlement as part of any Losses claimed by such Tenant Indemnitee
hereunder. The obligations of Landlord under this Section 13.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 


  

	 	(c)	 Landlord’s indemnity obligations in this Section 13.2 are (i) in addition and without limitation
of Alcoa Corp.’s indemnity obligations in Article IX of the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) in all respects subject to the limitations of Landlord’s liability in Section 33.9 of this Lease. 



 

	13.3	 Savings Clause. Article IX of the Purchase Agreement controls to the extent of any conflict or
inconsistency with any provision of this Section 13, and nothing in this Lease or the Exhibits hereto limits, reduces or overrides the rights and obligations of Tenant and Alcoa Corp. under Article IX of the Purchase Agreement.




  
 32 













 Section 14 Assignment; Subletting; and Change of Control. 

 

	14.1	 Consent Required for Transfer. Prior to Landlord’s satisfaction of the Put Conditions, Tenant may
neither assign any of its rights under or interest in this Lease nor sublet all or any part of the Leased Premises in either case (a “Transfer”) without obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord. Landlord’s consent to any
such Transfer may, (x) prior to the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date, be withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion, and (y) on or after the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date, but prior to the satisfaction of the Put Conditions, not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Subject to the following sentence, a change in Control
of Tenant, directly or indirectly, by merger, consolidation or acquisition of the equity of Tenant or any direct or indirect parent of Tenant, shall constitute a Transfer subject to the consent requirement of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, neither a direct or indirect change in the Control of the Initial Guarantor or any successor guarantor of Tenant with respect to this Lease that is a Creditworthy Guarantor (whether or not resulting in a direct or
indirect change in the Control of Tenant), nor any other Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) involving the Initial Guarantor, nor Tenant’s merely granting a Leasehold Mortgage in favor of a Leasehold Mortgagee in
accordance with Section 16 (without more) shall constitute a Transfer hereunder. Upon and after Landlord’s satisfaction of the Put Conditions, Tenant shall have the right to effect or permit the occurrence of any
Transfer without Landlord’s consent, provided that Tenant shall provide Landlord with written notice of any such Transfer within fifteen (15) days after the effective date thereof. 



 

	14.2	 Procedure for Seeking Consent to Transfer. 



 

	 	(a)	 If Tenant desires to effect a Transfer for which Landlord’s consent is required under
Section 14.1, Tenant must request Landlord’s consent no less than twenty-five (25) days before the proposed effective date of such Transfer and include in the request the following: 



 

	 	(i)	 the identity of the proposed assignee of the Lease, proposed subtenant of the Leased Premises, or proposed
successor tenant following the change in Control of Tenant (as applicable, the “Transferee”), together with the identit(ies) of the Person(s) Controlling such Transferee; 



 

	 	(ii)	 the material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer; 



 

	 	(iii)	 if the proposed Transferee is not a corporation or other business entity whose ownership interests are publicly
traded on a nationally recognized stock exchange, banking, financial, and other credit information relating to the proposed Transferee, in reasonably sufficient detail to enable Landlord to determine that the proposed Transferee can provide
financial assurances to satisfy Landlord that the Transferee is financially responsible and able to meet the obligations of Tenant under the Lease, including the ability to pay the Rent, to conduct Tenant’s Operations in accordance with
Environmental Laws and in all material respects all other Requirements, and to carry out the decommissioning and reclamation activities required under Section 21; and 



 

	 	(iv)	 any additional information Landlord may reasonably require. 



  
 33 














	 	(b)	 Landlord shall respond to any request made by Tenant for consent to a Transfer within twenty-five
(25) days after receipt of the request and all supporting information as may be required by Section 14.2(a). Landlord’s response shall either (i) consent to the proposed Transfer with conditions, if any, to such consent, which
may, if the proposed Transferee’s financial and other information indicates it is unable to fulfill its performance obligations hereunder, include the requirement of a Lease Guaranty from a Creditworthy Guarantor (provided that Landlord
concurrently releases the Initial Guarantor or other then-current guarantor of this Lease from the applicable guaranty in accordance with Section 14.4(b) below), or (ii) specifically note the reason(s) for
Landlord’s disapproval of the proposed Transfer and indicate any additional supporting information or other requirements needed for Landlord’s approval of the proposed Transfer. 



 

	14.3	 No Deemed Consent. A consent by Landlord to one Transfer shall not be deemed a consent to any other
Transfer. 


  

	14.4	 Release of Tenant and Guarantor Upon Transfer. 



 

	 	(a)	 Upon Landlord’s granting of approval to a Transfer which is an assignment of this Lease, or in the event
of any other Transfer effected by Tenant in compliance with this Section 14 which is an assignment of this Lease, the transferring Tenant shall be relieved of all obligations and liability under the Lease accruing on or
after the effective date of such Transfer, and the applicable Transferee shall thereafter be the “Tenant” under this Lease and be automatically deemed to have assumed all of Tenant’s obligations and liabilities accruing on or after
the effective date of such Transfer. 


  

	 	(b)	 Upon Landlord’s granting of approval to a Transfer which is an assignment of this Lease, in the event of
any other Transfer effected by Tenant in compliance with this Section 14, or upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) involving the Initial Guarantor, Landlord shall,
concurrently with the effective date of such Transfer or Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), execute and deliver to Initial Guarantor or other guarantor under a Lease Guaranty a release of the applicable Lease Guaranty,
in form reasonably acceptable to Initial Guarantor or such other guarantor; provided, however, that Tenant or the Transferee concurrently causes a Creditworthy Guarantor to execute and deliver to Landlord a Lease Guaranty on substantially the form
attached hereto as Exhibit E, or such other form of lease guaranty in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord and such Creditworthy Guarantor, provided, further, that in the event Tenant (or its guarantor) requests a release of
the Lease Guaranty in connection with a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) involving the Initial Guarantor, Landlord shall only be required to deliver such release if the replacement Creditworthy Guarantor is the
surviving, acquiring or consolidated entity with respect to such Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). For the purposes hereof, “Creditworthy Guarantor” shall mean a guarantor of the obligations of Tenant
under this Lease that (i) has a tangible net worth of not less than $500,000,000.00 



  
 34 














	 	
as demonstrated by reasonable evidence thereof delivered by Tenant or the applicable Creditworthy Guarantor to Landlord, (ii) has a credit rating of not less than a “B3” from
Moody’s Investors Service), a “B-” from S&P Global Ratings, or “B-” from Fitch Ratings, or an equivalent rating by any successor rating
service, in each case as demonstrated by reasonable evidence thereof delivered by Tenant or the applicable Creditworthy Guarantor to Landlord, or (iii) is otherwise reasonably acceptable to Landlord, based on such guarantor’s tangible net
worth, cash flow, and/or other creditworthiness criteria. 

 Section 15 Lease Guaranty Requirements.

  

	15.1	 Guaranty Requirement. Tenant will cause Initial Guarantor to execute a Lease Guaranty contemporaneously
with the execution of this Lease. 


  

	15.2	 Performance of Guaranty. Tenant will cause Initial Guarantor and any other guarantor under a Lease
Guaranty to, to the extent applicable thereunder, provide to Landlord the financial information and related certifications, together with any required security, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lease Guaranty.



  

	15.3	 Release. Any guarantor under a Lease Guaranty will remain fully liable thereunder until either no Lease
Guaranty is required by Landlord or that guarantor’s Lease Guaranty has been replaced with a new Lease Guaranty from a replacement guarantor in accordance with Section 14.4(b). In either case, Landlord will promptly
execute and deliver a release of the Lease Guaranty that is no longer required or has been replaced hereunder. 



Section 16 Leasehold Mortgages. 
  

	16.1	 Leasehold Mortgage. 



 

	 	(a)	 Tenant may, in its sole discretion from time to time, enter into one or more mortgages, deeds of trust,
assignments of leases and rents or similar security instruments (each, a “Leasehold Mortgage”) encumbering Tenant’s leasehold interest hereunder in favor of any lender (a “Leasehold Mortgagee”) as security for
a loan or other indebtedness of Tenant. The Landlord’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, shall be required with respect to any Leasehold Mortgage made in favor of a Leasehold Mortgagee that is not
an Institutional Lender. Tenant shall give to Landlord prompt written notice of any Leasehold Mortgage encumbering the leasehold estate demised hereby in favor of an Institutional Lender, which notice shall include the name and address of the
Leasehold Mortgagee, a statement confirming that such Leasehold Mortgagee is an Institutional Lender, and an executed copy of the Leasehold Mortgage. Landlord and Tenant expressly intend and agree that the provisions of this
Section 16 and such other provisions of this Lease which, by their terms, are for the benefit of a Leasehold Mortgagee, are intended for the benefit of and enforceable by such Leasehold Mortgagee and its nominees,
designees, successors and assigns. 



  
 35 














	 	(b)	 As used herein, “Institutional Lender” means a state or federally chartered savings bank,
savings and loan association, credit union, commercial bank or trust company or a foreign banking institution (in each case whether acting individually or in a fiduciary or representative (such as an agency) capacity); an insurance company organized
and existing under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or a foreign insurance company (in each case whether acting individually or in a fiduciary or representative (such as an agency) capacity); an institutional investor such as a
publicly held real estate investment trust, an entity that qualifies as a “REMIC” under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or any similarly-qualified entity under any successor statute), or other public or private investment
entity (in each case whether acting as principal or agent); a brokerage or investment banking organization (in each case whether acting individually or in a fiduciary or representative (such as an agency) capacity); an employees’ welfare,
benefit, pension or retirement fund; an institutional leasing company; any governmental agency or entity insured by a governmental agency; any combination of the foregoing entities; a private equity fund; any fund or investment vehicle formed in
whole or in part for the purpose of making commercial mortgage or corporate loans; or any entity Affiliated with or Controlled by one or any combination of the foregoing entities; provided that each of such entities shall qualify as an Institutional
Lender only if (at the time it becomes an Institutional Lender) it shall not be an Affiliate of the Party to whom it is lending. 


  

	16.2	 Rights of Leasehold Mortgagee. Subject to any greater rights in favor of a Leasehold Mortgagee granted
by Landlord pursuant to an applicable Tri-Party Agreement, any Leasehold Mortgagee which is an Institutional Lender shall have the following rights under this Lease: 



 

	 	(a)	 Upon giving notice of default or any other material notice to Tenant, Landlord shall contemporaneously give a
copy of such notice to any Leasehold Mortgagee whose notice information has been provided to Landlord in writing. If Landlord shall give Tenant a notice of any matter which if not cured will become an Event of Default, then such notice shall not be
effective as to Tenant and/or to any Leasehold Mortgagee unless and until Landlord shall give a copy of such notice to such Leasehold Mortgagee in the same manner in which notices are required to be delivered under this Lease. If Tenant commits an
Event of Default, any Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remedy the default within the cure periods provided to Tenant plus an additional period of time equal to the amount of time that Tenant had to cure such
default, but in no event less than fifteen (15) additional days with respect to monetary defaults and thirty (30) additional days with respect to non-monetary defaults or such longer period as may be
permitted under Section 10, provided that if such non-monetary default cannot with due diligence be cured within such additional thirty (30) day period, Leasehold Mortgagee shall have an
additional period of time thereafter within which to cure such non-monetary default, provided that such cure is initiated during such additional thirty (30)-day period
and thereafter the curing of same is prosecuted with due diligence, and provided further that if such default is not susceptible of being cured, or cannot practicably be cured, by a Leasehold Mortgagee prior to foreclosing on the Leasehold Mortgage
(or exercise of other remedy in lieu of foreclosure) and such Leasehold Mortgagee diligently prosecutes such foreclosure 



  
 36 














	 	
or other remedy, then such additional period shall be extended, if applicable, until thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such foreclosure or completion of such other remedy. Landlord
shall accept such performance on the part of any Leasehold Mortgagee as though the same had been done or performed by Tenant, and any performance by such Leasehold Mortgagee which is sufficient to cure the facts or circumstances constituting the
applicable Event of Default shall be deemed to cure such Event of Default. 

  

	 	(b)	 Subject to the requirements of Section 14, a Leasehold Mortgagee may enforce its Lien and it or its
designee may acquire title to the leasehold estate in any lawful way and, pending foreclosure of its Lien, it or its designee may take possession of and operate the Rolling Mill at the Leased Premises, performing all obligations of Tenant hereunder.
Subject to the requirements of Section 14, upon foreclosure of its Lien by power of sale or judicial foreclosure, or upon acquisition of the leasehold estate by assignment in lieu of foreclosure, the Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee may sell
and assign the leasehold estate hereby created. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, the actions set forth in this clause (b) shall not, in and of themselves, constitute a breach of this Lease or entitle Landlord to the
exercise of any rights or remedies. 


  

	 	(c)	 No cancellation, termination, surrender, acceptance of surrender, abandonment, amendment, substitution,
modification, or rejection of this Lease or subordination of this Lease to any Lien shall be binding upon such Leasehold Mortgagee or Tenant, or affect the Lien of its Leasehold Mortgage, and shall be void ab initio, if the same is effected
without the prior written consent of such Leasehold Mortgagee, which consent may be granted or withheld in such Leasehold Mortgagee’s sole discretion. Landlord shall not accept any cancellation, termination, surrender or termination of this
Lease by Tenant, or agree to any amendment or modification of the terms of this Lease, without the prior consent in writing of such Leasehold Mortgagee, which consent may be granted or withheld in the Leasehold Mortgagee’s sole discretion. If
(i) Landlord shall terminate this Lease as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) this Lease is terminated for any reason other than an Event of Default (other than in connection with a total condemnation), or (iii) this Lease shall be
rejected by Tenant in any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, then such Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the option to obtain a new lease of the Leased Premises upon its written request made within one hundred twenty
(120) days after the later to occur of (a) the effective date of such termination or rejection and (b) the receipt by such Leasehold Mortgagee of notice of such termination or rejection from Landlord. If such Leasehold Mortgagee
timely makes such request to Landlord, then (I) such Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee) shall enter into a new lease of the Leased Premises and recordable memorandum thereof on the substantially same terms and conditions set forth herein for
the duration of the Lease Term with Landlord, (II) such Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee) shall cause Initial Guarantor or the Creditworthy Guarantor successor thereto, as applicable, either to reaffirm its Lease Guaranty or deliver a new
Lease Guaranty with respect to such new lease, and (III) such Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee) shall promptly cure any Event of Default 



  
 37 














	 	
under Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(d) (though without, for the avoidance of doubt, waiving any claims of Landlord against Tenant for Losses
arising from any other Event of Default). Alternatively, if within such one hundred twenty (120)-day period after the termination of the Lease, such Leasehold Mortgagee elects to acquire the Landlord’s
fee interest in the Leased Premises pursuant to Section 17.3 hereof (in which event, all rights granted to Tenant under such Section may be exercised by Leasehold Mortgagee on behalf of itself or the purchaser), then the Parties and such
Leasehold Mortgagee or purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to enter into the documentation for and effect such transaction subject to the terms and conditions of such Section. If the Lease is terminated and either (x) the Leasehold
Mortgagee (or purchaser) acquires Landlord’s fee interest in the Leased Premises or (y) the Landlord and the Leasehold Mortgagee or purchaser enter into a new lease, then Landlord shall, on or before the closing of such transaction, assign
to the Leasehold Mortgagee or such purchaser all of Landlord’s right, title and interest in and to all moneys (including insurance proceeds and condemnation awards), if any, then held by, or payable to, Landlord that Tenant (or Leasehold
Mortgagee) would have been entitled to receive but for the termination of this Lease, and Tenant’s interest in any subleases. 

  

	 	(d)	 No Leasehold Mortgagee or foreclosure purchaser shall be liable under the provisions of this Lease unless and
until such time as it becomes, and then only for so long as it remains, the owner of Tenant’s interest in this Lease and only then to the extent of such interest. 



 

	16.3	 Tri-Party Agreement. Within thirty (30) days after written
request by Tenant from time to time, Landlord agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver to any Leasehold Mortgagee of Tenant which is an Institutional Lender any recordable tri-party agreement, recognition
agreement or similar instrument on a commercially reasonable form proposed by such Leasehold Mortgagee, subject to changes proposed by Landlord and Tenant which are reasonably acceptable to such Leasehold Mortgagee (a “Tri-Party Agreement”), evidencing, inter alia, (i) Landlord’s recognition of the Leasehold Mortgage, (ii) such Leasehold Mortgagee’s right to foreclose upon (or exercise other
remedies in lieu of foreclosure with respect to) the leasehold estate demised hereby and thereby become the “Tenant” hereunder or assign such tenancy rights to a foreclosure purchaser in accordance herewith, (iii) such Leasehold
Mortgagee’s right to receive notices of default and cure any default of Tenant hereunder in accordance herewith, (iv) no amendment of this Lease shall be effective as against such Leasehold Mortgagee unless consented to by such Leasehold
Mortgagee, and (v) such Leasehold Mortgagee’s rights to assume Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, enter into a new lease with Landlord on the same terms and conditions hereof for the remainder of the Term, or exercise
Tenant’s right to acquire the Landlord’s fee interest in the Leased Premises, in each case upon or in lieu of a termination of this Lease by Landlord, as applicable, in accordance herewith. Landlord’s failure to timely deliver any Tri-Party Agreement shall not act to limit any Leasehold Mortgagee’s rights with respect to this Lease or the applicable Leasehold Mortgage to the extent provided herein. 



  
 38 














	16.4	 Right to Perform Tenant’s Covenants. If Tenant shall at any time fail to make any payment or
perform any act on its part required to be made or performed in accordance with any terms of this Lease, then Leasehold Mortgagee, subject to the terms of its applicable loan documents, without notice to Tenant or Landlord, shall have the right (but
not the obligation) to cure or otherwise perform such covenant or obligation. 


  

	16.5	 Survival. This Section 16 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination
of this Lease until the expiration of Tenant’s option to purchase the Leased Premises under Section 17.3. 



Section 17 Transfer of the Fee Interest in the Leased Premises. 

 

	17.1	 Assignment by Landlord. During the Lease Term, Landlord shall not assign its interest in this Lease or
convey its fee interest in the Leased Premises to any Person other than Landlord’s Affiliate, without first obtaining Tenant’s written consent, which Tenant may withhold in its sole discretion. No Alcoa Entity shall, prior to
Landlord’s completion of Landlord’s Transition Work, convey its interest in the Access Areas, the Mineral Estate or the Adjacent Premises (or, as applicable, permit any Affiliate of an Alcoa Entity to convey its interest in the Access
Areas or Adjacent Premises) to any Person other than to Landlord’s Affiliate, without first obtaining in each case Tenant’s written consent, which Tenant may withhold in its sole discretion. Following Landlord’s completion of
Landlord’s Transition Work, each Alcoa Entity may, without the consent of Tenant, convey its interest in the Access Areas, the Mineral Estate and/or the Adjacent Premises (or, as applicable, permit an Affiliate of such Alcoa Entity to convey
its interest in the Access Areas and/or Adjacent Premises) to any Person, subject to Tenant’s ROFO in Section 17.4 below to the extent applicable; provided that, other than in the case of the transactions
specified in subclauses (i) or (ii) of the following sentence, any conveyance of an Alcoa Entity’s (or its Affiliate’s) interest in all or any portion of the Access Areas, Mineral Estate and/or Adjacent Premises shall be void ab
initio unless the Transfer Conditions shall have been satisfied prior to the consummation thereof. A direct or indirect change in Control of an Alcoa Entity that owns the Leased Premises, Access Areas or Adjacent Premises (or of any Affiliate of
such Alcoa Entity that owns the Access Areas or Adjacent Premises) shall constitute an assignment or conveyance of such Alcoa Entity’s and/or such Affiliate’s interest in the Leased Premises, the Access Areas, the Mineral Estate and/or the
Adjacent Premises, as applicable with respect to any such Alcoa Entity (and/or an assignment of such Alcoa Entity’s and/or such Affiliate’s interest in this Lease), in each case subject to the terms and conditions of this
Section 17.1, other than due to (i) a change in ownership or management of an Affiliate of such Alcoa Entity whose shares are traded on a nationally recognized stock exchange, or (ii) a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the
Purchase Agreement) involving Alcoa Corp. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at no time shall Landlord suffer or permit any Fee Mortgage or Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) to encumber Landlord’s fee interest in the Leased
Premises, nor shall Landlord be permitted to otherwise pledge, hypothecate or encumber its fee interest in the Leased Premises.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 17.2, Landlord’s exercise of the Put shall not constitute a waiver by Tenant of any claims against the Alcoa Entities or any Provider (as defined in Exhibit G)

good standing, and customary “gap” indemnities and title and survey affidavits;

	 	(o)	 On or before the Put Closing Date, Landlord shall have effected the Landlord Put Cure, if applicable.

time after Landlord has fulfilled the Put Conditions, Tenant shall have the right, but not the obligation, by delivering written notice to Landlord on or prior to the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days after the later of (x) the

Section 10.1(a) (or, if there is such an Event of Default under Section 10.1(a), that it agrees in such notice, as a condition to such exercise, to cure such Event of Default (the “Tenant
Purchase Cure”)), in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 17.3 and irrespective of whether Tenant is in default under this Lease, other than an Event of Default under
Section 10.1(a) (though without, for the avoidance of doubt, waiving any claims of Landlord against Tenant for Losses arising from any other Event of Default). 



 

	 	(a)	 Landlord and Tenant may, by written agreement, amend the Purchase Closing Date from time to time (and, if
applicable, the expiration or termination date of this Lease shall be deemed similarly amended), and neither Tenant nor Landlord shall unreasonably withhold its consent to a request from the other party to adjourn the Purchase Closing Date to the

	 	(o)	 On or before the Purchase Closing Date, Tenant shall have effected the Tenant Purchase Cure, if applicable; and



  

	 	(p)	 This Section 17.3 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.



  

	17.4	 Right of First Offer for Adjacent Premises, Access Areas, and Mineral Estate. If at any time during the
Lease Term, any Alcoa Entity desires to initiate a conveyance (a “ROFO Sale”) of its fee interest in all or any portion of the Adjacent Premises, Access Areas or Mineral Estate (all or such portion, as applicable, of such property,
the “ROFO Property”) to a third party purchaser, Tenant shall have a right of first offer (“ROFO”) pursuant to this Section 17.4 in connection with any such ROFO Sale, which must be conducted in accordance with
the following procedures: 


  

	 	(a)	 If an Alcoa Entity desires, at its option, to initiate a ROFO Sale, such Alcoa Entity must first provide
written notice to Tenant of its intent to cause a ROFO Sale (the “ROFO Sale Notice”). 


  

	 	(b)	 Within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of the ROFO Sale Notice, Tenant shall notify the
applicable Alcoa Entity of the ROFO Property Proposal (as hereinafter defined) for such ROFO Sale (the “ROFO Property Proposal Notice”). The “ROFO Property Proposal” shall mean Tenant’s proposed determination
of the value, in United States dollars, of the ROFO Property, together with the other material terms and conditions upon which Tenant proposes to purchase the ROFO Property. 



 

	 	(c)	 Within fifteen (15) days after the applicable Alcoa Entity’s receipt of the ROFO Property Proposal
Notice, such Alcoa Entity shall notify Tenant whether the ROFO Property Proposal is acceptable to such Alcoa Entity in its sole discretion (the “ROFO Property Proposal Response”). If the ROFO Property Proposal is not so acceptable
to such Alcoa Entity, then for a period of fifteen (15) days after Tenant’s receipt of the ROFO Property Proposal Response, such Alcoa Entity and Tenant shall make commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to negotiate a mutually
acceptable ROFO Property Proposal, failing which, Tenant shall not have any further rights and the applicable Alcoa Entity shall not have any further obligations under this Section 17.4 with respect to the applicable ROFO Property. If either
Tenant’s ROFO Property Proposal is so acceptable to the applicable Alcoa Entity or such Alcoa Entity and Tenant mutually agree upon an alternative ROFO Property Proposal pursuant to the preceding sentence (in either case, such ROFO Property
Proposal, the “Agreed ROFO Property Proposal”), then the Parties will reasonably cooperate to finalize and execute a purchase and sale agreement for the applicable ROFO Property (which purchase and sale agreement shall be consistent
with the terms set forth in subsection (d) below) within thirty (30) days following final determination of the Agreed ROFO Property Proposal, time being of the essence, failing which, Tenant shall not have any further rights and the
applicable Alcoa Entity shall not have any further obligations under this Section 17.4 with respect to such ROFO Property. 



  
 44 














	 	(d)	 Any purchase and sale agreement for the ROFO Property shall provide, in substance, that: 



 

	 	(i)	 Tenant shall make, simultaneously with such execution, an earnest money deposit, in immediately available U.S.
federal funds, in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the value of the ROFO Property contained in the Agreed ROFO Property Proposal without regard to prorations (the “ROFO Sale Deposit”) in escrow with a national title company
or escrow agent of Tenant’s election and reasonably acceptable to the applicable Alcoa Entity; 


  

	 	(ii)	 The closing of such purchase and sale shall occur not later than ninety (90) days after the execution date
of the purchase and sale agreement, at a mutually agreeable time at the offices of Tenant’s counsel, through an escrow with Tenant’s escrow agent, or another venue mutually acceptable to the applicable Alcoa Entity and Tenant, time being
of the essence; 


  

	 	(iii)	 At such closing the applicable Alcoa Entity shall execute and deliver to Tenant a limited or special warranty
deed for the ROFO Property, and such Alcoa Entity and Tenant shall execute and deliver such documents as may be reasonably requested by the other Party in order to consummate the sale and transfer of the ROFO Property; 



 

	 	(iv)	 The balance of the value of the ROFO Property contained in the Agreed ROFO Property Proposal, subject to usual
and customary proration and adjustment, shall be paid by Tenant at the closing in immediately available U.S. federal funds to the applicable Alcoa Entity; 


  

	 	(v)	 If Tenant shall have defaulted in consummating the transaction under the purchase and sale agreement, then the
applicable Alcoa Entity may, as its exclusive remedy, retain the ROFO Sale Deposit as liquidated damages and sell the applicable ROFO Property without being required to deliver a ROFO Sale Notice to Tenant prior to any sale of such ROFO Property and
following such default Tenant shall have no further rights under this Section 17.4 with respect to the ROFO Property so sold; and 


  

	 	(vi)	 If the applicable Alcoa Entity shall have defaulted in consummating the transaction under the purchase and sale
agreement, then Tenant shall, as its exclusive remedy, either enforce the sale by specific performance or receive a refund of its ROFO Sale Deposit. 


  

	 	(e)	 If Tenant fails to give the applicable Alcoa Entity a ROFO Property Proposal Notice in accordance with
subsection (b) above or if the Agreed ROFO Property Proposal is not determined by the Parties or if the Parties fail to execute a mutually acceptable 



  
 45 














	 	
purchase and sale agreement in accordance with subsection (c) above, then Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its rights under this Section 17.4 with respect to
such ROFO Property, and such Alcoa Entity shall have the right to sell such ROFO Property at any time to any third party; provided that if such Alcoa Entity shall have failed to consummate a sale of such ROFO Property to a third party on or
before the first (1st) anniversary of the date of Tenant’s waiver or deemed waiver of the applicable ROFO, then Tenant’s ROFO with respect to such ROFO Property shall be restored and
such Alcoa Entity shall once again be required to comply with the terms and conditions of this Section 17.4 prior to offering for sale or consummating a sale of such ROFO Property to any third party. 


 

	 	(f)	 In the event the Landlord’s fee interest in the Leased Premises is transferred to Tenant pursuant to
Section 17.2 or Section 17.3 or otherwise, this Section 17.4 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease for a period of one (1) year.



  

	 	(g)	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Alcoa Entities’ obligations to comply with this
Section 17.4 with respect to any ROFO Sale shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any obligations of the Alcoa Entities under Section 17.1 which may apply to such ROFO Sale.



 Section 18 Casualty and Condemnation. 

 

	18.1	 Casualty. Neither Party shall have any right to terminate this Lease as a result of the Leased Premises
or any improvements or personal property thereon being damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, in whole or in part, and Tenant shall not be obligated to repair or rebuild any of its improvements or personal property except as needed to abate
any Material Risk caused by the casualty. All casualty insurance proceeds allocable to the Leased Premises, the Rolling Mill and any other improvements, fixtures or personal property thereon or therein shall inure to the benefit of Tenant and shall
be paid to Tenant or Leasehold Mortgagee. Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right to participate in negotiations or litigation with the insurer to secure insurance proceeds with respect to the Leased Premises. Tenant and Leasehold Mortgagee shall
have the right to conduct all insurance settlement negotiations. 


  

	18.2	 Taking. 


  

	 	(a)	 If all or part of the Leased Premises is proposed to be taken as a result of any action or proceeding in
eminent domain or is proposed to be transferred in lieu of condemnation to any authority entitled to exercise the power of eminent domain (collectively, a “Taking”), Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable advance notice of
any and all impending proceedings or meetings related to such Taking, and Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right to participate in any such meetings and proceedings. Should title or possession of all of the Leased Premises be taken in condemnation
proceedings by a Governmental Entity or private party under the exercise of the right of eminent domain, or should a partial Taking render the remaining portion of the Leased Premises unsuitable for Tenant’s use (in Tenant’s reasonable
discretion), then this Lease shall terminate upon such vesting of title or taking of possession. 



  
 46 














	 	(b)	 All payments made on account of any Taking by eminent domain shall be deposited with Leasehold Mortgagee and
such payments shall first be allocated to either restore the Leased Premises in accordance with the Leasehold Mortgagee’s loan documents or to the Leasehold Mortgagee in the amount equal to the outstanding indebtedness secured by the Leasehold
Mortgage and, thereafter, such payments shall be made to the Parties in accordance with their respective interests hereunder (and, for avoidance of doubt, any allocation to the Leased Premises, the Rolling Mill and any other improvements or fixtures
thereon or therein shall be allocated exclusively to Tenant), and Tenant, at its sole discretion, shall be entitled seek a separate award for any damages allowable by law, including those damages for (a) the removal and relocation Tenant’s
business, (b) the loss or damage to any property that Tenant elects or is required not to remove, and (c) the loss of use of the Leased Premises by Tenant; and Landlord shall have no right, title or interest in or to any separate award
made therefor. Tenant shall have the right to participate in any settlement proceedings, and Landlord shall not enter into any binding settlement agreement without the prior written consent of Tenant, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. 


 Section 19 Insurance. 

 

	19.1	 Insurance to Be Maintained. 



 

	 	(a)	 Tenant must, throughout the Lease Term, (i) maintain in full force and effect commercial general
liability, property/casualty, pollution/environmental liability and other lines of insurance of the types, on the terms and in the amounts commensurate with Tenant’s Operations and risks associated therewith (“Insurance”) and
(ii) comply with Applicable Laws relating to workers’ compensation insurance regarding insurance or qualification as a self-insurer. 


  

	 	(b)	 All insurance coverage required under the policies set forth above shall apply to the Rolling Mill and the
Leased Premises as well as any entryways, sidewalks, driveways and parking areas (including any comprising Access Areas) or fixtures and equipment thereon used by Tenant in accordance with the terms of this Lease. 



 

	19.2	 General Requirements. 



 

	 	(a)	 To the extent permitted by law, each of the Parties waives rights of subrogation and contribution against the
other under policies of property/casualty insurance. 


  

	 	(b)	 Each Party will ensure that the other Party is made an additional insured on policies of liability insurance
maintained with respect to its respective operations at the Complex under terms of coverage customary to the risk of loss to which the other Party is exposed and that the limits of such liability insurance to which the other Party is entitled as an
additional insured are no less than the amount of total limits of insurance applicable to the primary insured Party under all of the policies of such insurance. 



  
 47 














	 	(c)	 Tenant will ensure that the policies of Insurance are stated to be specifically primary to any of
Landlord’s insurance policies, which policies will be, in all respects, excess to Tenant’s policies of Insurance. 


  

	 	(d)	 Tenant shall be solely responsible for any deductibles, self-insured retentions, and other forms of
self-insurance under the policies of Insurance. 


  

	 	(e)	 Tenant, upon Landlord’s request, will timely provide written certificates reflecting the material terms of
the policies of Insurance. 


  

	 	(f)	 Tenant may satisfy the limits of insurance required herein with any combination of primary and umbrella/excess
insurance policies. 


  

	 	(g)	 The requirements in this Section 19 are separate and distinct from any other obligations of Tenant under
this Lease. 


  

	 	(h)	 All insurance coverages are to be placed with insurers with an AM Best Rating of
A- or better. 


 Section 20 Signs. 

Tenant may, only with the prior written approval of Landlord (not to be unreasonably withheld), and without out-of-pocket cost or expense to Landlord, place or permit to be placed reasonable signs for identification and directional purposes on or about the Access Areas. Tenant may, without Landlord’s approval,
place any signs for any purposes consistent with Applicable Law on or about the Leased Premises. Landlord hereby agrees to execute any applications and consents that are required by Governmental Entities with regard to such signs, so long as
Landlord is not put to any external cost payable by Landlord to a third party (unless Tenant otherwise agrees in writing to reimburse Landlord for such external cost). 

Section 21 Surrender of Leased Premises. 
  

	21.1	 Surrender. Upon expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease (but subject to the terms of
Sections 17.2 and 17.3), Tenant agrees and hereby covenants to (a) execute and record a termination of lease (or memorandum thereof) releasing to Landlord of all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to the Leased Premises;
(b) subject to and in accordance with this Section 21, dismantle, demolish and remove the Rolling Mill and all other improvements, facilities and other property owned or installed by or for Tenant on the Leased Premises and any Access Area
and perform all other required Reclamation (as hereinafter defined) within 12 months after the date of expiration or earlier termination of this Lease (the time period of during which decommissioning and Reclamation is taking place being the
“Decommissioning Period”); and (c) peaceably and quietly leave, surrender and return the Leased Premises and, as applicable, Access Areas to Landlord in accordance with the terms herein. 



  
 48 














	21.2	 Reclamation. During the Decommissioning Period, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, will commence to
dismantle, demolish, and raze the Rolling Mill and any and all of Tenant’s other improvements, fixtures, equipment and personal property owned, installed, and used by Tenant on the Leased Premises and any Access Area, including pads,
foundations, lines and cables, roads, any operations and maintenance buildings and all underground fixtures, except for any utilities, third-party-owned facilities and other improvements that Landlord requests
in writing remain in place (which shall become Landlord’s property), and will ensure the areas from which such improvements, fixtures, equipment and personal property are removed are left in a safe condition. Tenant shall also complete site
remediation associated with demolition activities and other activities necessary to restore the surface of the entire Leased Premises (which will include removal of concrete slabs and foundations to 5 feet below grade) to a vacant condition as
agreed to and approved by Landlord and in such a condition as is in accordance with generally accepted industry standards for industrial users that is consistent with applicable Environmental Law. Tenant will cause the Leased Premises to be re-graded to restore all slopes to a usable grade approved by Landlord and perform land reclamation work on the Leased Premises as reasonably required to prevent soil erosion, such as leveling, terracing, mulching
and other proper drainage establishment, provided that Tenant will not be required to correct conditions caused by or on behalf of Landlord during the Lease Term or to plant trees or other vegetation other than as required for soil stabilization.
Tenant shall comply with land restoration requirements of any applicable Governmental Entity, submit any plan required by such authorities and post any security required by the County and by Tenant’s permits. The work required of Tenant under
this Section 21.2 is referred to herein as “Reclamation”. 


  

	21.3	 Default and Remedy. If Tenant fails, within 12 months after the expiration or earlier termination of
this Lease, to remove any improvements from the Leased Premises that Landlord does not request remain in place or to perform any other required Reclamation, Landlord may do so, in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand for the actual
costs of removal and Reclamation incurred by Landlord within 15 days after receipt of an invoice therefor from Landlord, plus interest at the Default Rate from the date of Landlord’s payment until reimbursement by Tenant. 



 

	21.4	 Survival. This Section 21 will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, but shall
expire upon any acquisition of the Leased Premises by Tenant pursuant to Section 17.2 or Section 17.3 or otherwise. 



Section 22 Estoppel Certificate. 
 At
the request of either Party, Tenant and Landlord agree, from time to time, within 15 days after receipt of a written request, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting Party a statement in writing, addressed to such Party (or in the case
of Tenant, any Leasehold Mortgagee) as designated in its notice to the other, certifying that this Lease is unmodified and is in full force and effect (or stating any modifications, and that the Lease is otherwise unmodified and in full force and
effect as so modified), that to the knowledge of such Party that the requested Party has no defenses, offsets or counterclaims against its obligations to perform its covenants under this Lease (or, if there have been any modifications that the same
are in full force and effect as modified and 

  
 49 













 
stating the modifications and, if there are any defenses, offsets, counterclaims or defaults, setting them forth in reasonable detail), the current amount of Base Rent and Additional Rent payable
under this Lease and the dates to which the Rent has been paid, a statement that, to the knowledge of the requested Party, the Parties are not in default (or if in default, the nature of such default, in reasonable detail) and no facts or
circumstances exist which would, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, constitute a default, and certification to other correct and reasonably ascertainable facts that are covered by the terms of this Lease. 

Any such statement shall be for the sole benefit of the applicable Party (and in the case of Tenant, any Leasehold Mortgagee), and their respective successors
and assigns. Upon the failure of the responding Party to furnish a statement of the nature described above to the requesting Party, it shall be conclusively presumed that the matters set forth on the form of estoppel proposed by such Party are true.

 Section 23 Force Majeure. 
  

	23.1	 Delay Due to a Force Majeure Event. A Party whose performance has been or will be affected by any Force
Majeure Event will not be responsible or liable for, or deemed in default or breach hereof because of, any failure or delay in complying with its obligations under or pursuant to this Lease (other than the payment of money as such obligations come
due hereunder) which it cannot perform solely as a result of one or more Force Majeure Events or its or their effects or by any combination thereof, and the periods allowed for the performance by the Party of such obligations will be extended on a day-for-day basis for so long as one or more Force Majeure Events continues to affect materially and adversely the performance of such Party of such obligations under or
pursuant to this Lease. 


  

	23.2	 Obligations to Mitigate. Each Party is obligated to use reasonable efforts to mitigate the adverse
effect and duration of any Force Majeure Event which affects the performance of such Party, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to perform a workaround or provide alternative performance as a replacement for any obligations affected by such
Force Majeure Event. 


  

	23.3	 Notice to Other Party. As soon as practicable after a Force Majeure Event affects its performance, each
Party shall give the other Party a statement describing the Force Majeure Event and its cause (to the extent known to the Party) and a description of the conditions delaying the performance of the Party’s obligations. The affected Party shall
also provide notice to the other Party of the cessation of the Force Majeure Event and the affected Party’s ability to recommence performance of its obligations under this Lease by reason of the cessation of the Force Majeure Event, which
notice shall be given as soon as practicable after the cessation of the Force Majeure Event. 


 Section 24 Tenant
Bankruptcy. 
 If at any time and for so long as Tenant shall be subjected to the provisions of any Bankruptcy Law or a Bankruptcy Default shall
otherwise have occurred and remain uncured, neither Tenant nor Tenant as debtor-in-possession nor any trustee or receiver of Tenant’s assets (each a
“Tenant’s Representative”) shall have any greater right to assume or assign this Lease or any interest in this 

  
 50 













 
Lease, or to sublease any of the Leased Premises, than is otherwise accorded to Tenant in this Lease, except to the extent Landlord shall be required to permit an assumption, assignment or
sublease by the provisions of any Bankruptcy Law. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, any right of any Tenant’s Representative to assume or assign this Lease or to sublease any of the Leased Premises shall be subject to the
following conditions: 
  

	 	(a)	 The Bankruptcy Law shall provide to Tenant’s Representative a right of assumption of this Lease, which
Tenant’s Representative shall have timely exercised, and Tenant’s Representative shall have fully cured any default of Tenant under this Lease (other than such default as may exist by virtue of Tenant being subjected to the provisions of a
Bankruptcy Law or the occurrence of existence of a Bankruptcy Default). 


  

	 	(b)	 Tenant’s Representative or the proposed assignee, as the case shall be, shall have deposited with
Landlord, as security for the timely payment of Rent, an amount equal to one year’s payment of Rent and shall have provided Landlord with adequate other assurance of the future performance of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease. Without
limitation, such assurance shall include, at least, (i) in the case of assumption of this Lease, demonstration to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord that Tenant’s Representative has and will continue to have sufficient unencumbered
assets after the payment of all secured obligations and administrative expenses to assure Landlord that Tenant’s Representative will have sufficient funds to fulfill the obligations of Tenant under this Lease; (ii) in the case of
assignment, submission of current financial statements of the proposed assignee, audited by an independent certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to Landlord and demonstrating to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord that the proposed
assignee has and will continue to have sufficient unencumbered assets to assure Landlord that the proposed assignee will have sufficient funds to fulfill the obligations of Tenant under this Lease; or (iii) in the case of assumption or
assignment, a Lease Guaranty from a guarantor acceptable to Landlord in its reasonable discretion. 


  

	 	(c)	 The assumption or any contemplated assignment of this Lease or subleasing any part of the Leased Premises, as
shall be the case, will not breach any provision in any other lease, mortgage, financing agreement or other agreement by which Landlord is bound. 



Section 25 Mechanic’s Liens. 
 Tenant
shall ensure that no contractors, subcontractors or materialmen shall make, file or maintain a mechanic’s or other Lien or claim of any kind or character (each, a “Mechanic’s Lien”) against any real property or personal
property of Landlord, including the Leased Premises, the Access Areas and any other area of the Adjacent Premises, for or on account of any labor, materials, fixtures, tools, machinery, equipment or any other things furnished, or any work done or
performance given, in each case by or on behalf of Tenant, whether or not connected with Tenant’s Operations, which are not discharged or bonded over as provided in the following sentence. In the event any such Mechanic’s Lien is made,
filed or maintained against any of such real property or personal property of Landlord, Tenant shall, within 90 days following Landlord’s written request therefor, cause the Mechanic’s Lien to be discharged in full or bonded over in
accordance with Applicable Law. 

  
 51 













 Section 26 Landlord Financing. 

Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that, as of the Effective Date, there are no mortgages, deeds of trust, security interests or other similar Liens
affecting Landlord’s fee estate in the Leased Premises (each, a “Fee Mortgage”). During the Lease Term, Landlord shall not suffer or permit any Fee Mortgage to encumber the Leased Premises, and Landlord shall, at its sole cost
and expense, promptly remove or cause to be removed any Fee Mortgage encumbering the Leased Premises of which Landlord receives notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Fee Mortgages (the existence of which shall be a breach by
Landlord of this Section 26) shall be automatically subject and subordinate to this Lease and any new lease entered into pursuant to Section 16.2(c), and each such Fee Mortgage must provide that it is automatically
subject and subordinate to this Lease and any new lease entered into pursuant to Section 16.2(c). Landlord shall not be permitted to transfer its interest in the Leased Premises to any holder of a Fee Mortgage. Any attempt
by Landlord to transfer Landlord’s fee interest to the holder of a Fee Mortgage, or any attempt by such holder to foreclose on Landlord’s interest in the Leased Premises or exercise any other remedy with respect to Landlord’s interest
in the Leased Premises, shall be void ab initio and of no force or effect. 
 Section 27 Memorandum and Recording. 

Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that this Lease will not be recorded in any public records. Simultaneously with the Effective Date, Landlord shall execute in
recordable form, and Tenant may then record, a memorandum of this Lease substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto. Any and all recording cost and tax required in connection with the recording of the memorandum
of lease shall be at the sole cost and expense of Tenant. 
 Section 28 Office of Foreign Assets Control. 

Each Party (which for this purpose includes each Party’s partners, members, managers, principal stockholders and any other constituent entities and
Affiliates) represents and warrants to the other Party that it is not (a) the target of any sanctions program that is established by Executive Order of the President or published by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Department of the
Treasury (“OFAC”); (b) designated by the President or OFAC pursuant to the Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. app. § 5; the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C.
§§ 1701-06; the Patriot Act, Public Law 107-56; Executive Order No. 13224 entitled “Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons
Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism” (September 24, 2001); or any executive order of the President issued pursuant to such statutes; or (c) a Person with whom U.S. Persons are restricted from doing business under
regulations of OFAC (including those named on OFAC’s Specially Designated and Blocked Persons List) or under any statute, executive order (including Executive Order 13224) or other governmental action. Each Party further represents and
warrants that it is currently in compliance with and will at all times during the Lease Term remain in compliance with the regulations of OFAC and any statute, executive order, or other governmental action relating thereto. Further,


  
 52 













 
each Party represents and warrants to the other Party that its activities do not violate the International Money Laundering Abatement and Financial Anti-Terrorism Act of 2001 or the regulations
or orders promulgated thereunder. Each Party further covenants and agrees to promptly deliver to the other Party such reasonable documentation that such Party may request in order to confirm the accuracy of the representations and warranties made in
this Section 29. 
 Section 29 Confidentiality and Publicity. 

 

	29.1	 Confidential Information. 



 

	 	(a)	 Subject to this Section 29, the Parties will, and Landlord will cause its Affiliates,
the Landlord Indemnitees and the other parties for which it is responsible under this Section 29 to, and Tenant will cause its Affiliates, the Tenant Indemnitees and the other parties for which it is responsible under this
Section 29 to, maintain in the strictest confidence; not use, copy, reproduce, convey or disclose; not sell, assign, license, market or otherwise transfer; and take appropriate measures to safeguard: all information
pertaining to the terms and conditions of this Lease and any information regarding the business or operations of the other Party discovered by virtue of exercising its rights or fulfilling its obligations under this Lease, including without
limitation the financial terms, site design and product design, and business methods for Tenant’s Operations and Landlord’s Operations, and any confidential, proprietary or non-public information
pertaining to Tenant, any Tenant Indemnitees, any Affiliates of Tenant or Tenant’s Operations discovered by Landlord or its representatives while accessing the Leased Premises or performing any obligations of Landlord hereunder (collectively,
“Confidential Information”), except to the extent as may be required by court order, subpoena or inquiry issued by an applicable Governmental Entity, provided that the disclosing Party (i) promptly notifies the other Party in
writing of such request, (ii) consults with the other Party on the advisability of taking legally available steps to resist or narrow such request, and (iii) if disclosure of the Confidential Information is required or deemed advisable by
the disclosing Party, exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an order, stipulation or other reliable assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information. 



 

	 	(b)	 Each of Landlord and Tenant acknowledges that damages may be an inadequate remedy for the other Party for any
breach of this Section 29, and that such other Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable relief with respect to such breach. 



 

	 	(c)	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to restrict or deny access
to Landlord and its representatives to certain areas of the Leased Premises where Confidential Information may be stored. 


  

	29.2	 Press Releases. Should either Party desire to issue a press release to the public or a sub-set of the public regarding this Lease, its contents, or the relationship between the Parties, the disclosing Party shall first provide the non-disclosing Party with a
copy of the press release. No press release may be issued without the prior approval of the non-disclosing Party. 



  
 53 














	29.3	 Disclosure to Partners and Service Providers. Nothing in this Section shall prohibit any Party from
sharing or disclosing information with such Party’s counsel, accountants or current or prospective investors, business development partners, approved assignees, purchasers or lenders with a bona fide need to know such Confidential Information,
provided that the Party sharing or disclosing such Confidential Information requires the recipient to maintain the confidentiality of such disclosed information. 



 

	29.4	 Brokers and Prospective Buyers. Each Party expressly agrees that the other Party can disclose un-redacted copies of this Lease in its entirety to its real estate brokers and prospective buyers who are both covered under binding non-disclosure agreements.



  

	29.5	 Survival. This Section 29 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.



 Section 30 Survival. 

All representations, indemnities and warranties set forth in this Lease, and all provisions explicitly or implicitly indicated as surviving, shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and be fully enforceable thereafter. 
 Section 31 Holding Over. 

 

	31.1	 Consequences of Holding Over. The Parties recognize and agree that the damage to Landlord resulting from
any failure by Tenant timely to surrender the Leased Premises may be substantial, may exceed the amount of monthly Rent theretofore payable hereunder, and may be impossible of accurate measurement. Tenant therefore agrees that if possession of the
Leased Premises is not surrendered to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the date of the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease (unless Tenant is remaining in occupancy of the Premises with the express written consent of Landlord),
then Tenant will pay Landlord, to the extent in excess of 100% of the Rent, as liquidated damages for each month and for each portion of any month during which Tenant holds over in the Leased Premises after expiration or termination of this Lease a
sum equal to 125% of the Base Rent and 100% of the Additional Rent that was payable under this Lease during the last month of the Lease Term for the first four (4) months of holding over past such two (2)-month period, and 150% of the Base Rent
and 100% of the Additional Rent thereafter. Further, in the event Tenant continues to occupy the Leased Premises on a month-to-month holdover tenancy, all of the
provisions of this Lease shall continue to be in effect and that either Party may, upon 30 days prior written notice, terminate such month-to-month tenancy, but subject
to Tenant’s obligations and rights to acquire the fee interest in the Leased Premises under Sections 17.2 and 17.3, respectively, which shall remain applicable as though the termination of such month-to-month tenancy were the termination or expiration of this Lease. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages provided for under this Section 31 are a
reasonable approximation of the damages that would be incurred by Landlord for Tenant’s holding over, and Landlord shall not be entitled to pursue any other monetary remedies, whether for consequential damages or otherwise, on account of such
holding over. 



  
 54 














	31.2	 Survival. This Section 31 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

Section 33 Landlord Lease Guaranty; Release of Landlord, APGI and Guarantor. 

 

	33.1	 Landlord Lease Guaranty. Landlord will cause Alcoa Corp. to execute a Landlord Lease Guaranty
contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease. 


  

	33.2	 Release of Alcoa Entities and Guarantor. Upon any assignment or conveyance of any Alcoa Entity’s
interest in this Lease to an assignee in compliance with Section 17.1, such assigning Alcoa Entity shall be relieved of all obligations and liabilities under the Lease accruing on or after the effective date of such assignment or conveyance,
and the assignee shall thereafter be the applicable “Landlord” in the case of Landlord, “APGI” in the case of APGI or “Newco” in the case of Newco and be automatically deemed to have assumed all of Landlord’s,
APGI’s or Newco’s, as applicable, obligations and liabilities accruing on or after the effective date of such assignment, including, without limitation, such Alcoa Entity’s obligations under Section 2.2(g). Upon the assignment or
conveyance of all of the Alcoa Entities’ interests in this Lease or in the event of any other assignments or conveyances effected by the Alcoa Entities in compliance with Section 17.1 (including a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the
Purchase Agreement) involving Alcoa Corp.), in each case if the effective date of such assignment or conveyance is after the Put Conditions have been fulfilled (other than in connection with a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement) involving Alcoa Corp., in which case the Put Conditions need not have been fulfilled), Tenant shall, concurrently with the effective date of such assignment or conveyance, execute and deliver to Alcoa Corp. or other guarantor under a
Landlord Lease Guaranty a release of the applicable Landlord Lease Guaranty, in form reasonably acceptable to Alcoa Corp. or such other guarantor; provided, however, that the assignee concurrently causes a Creditworthy Landlord Guarantor to execute
and deliver to Tenant a Landlord Lease Guaranty on substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit P, or such other form of lease guaranty in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant and such Creditworthy Landlord Guarantor;
provided, further, that in the event Landlord (or its guarantor) requests a release of the Landlord Lease Guaranty in connection with a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) involving Alcoa Corp., Tenant shall only be
required to deliver such release if the 



  
 56 














	 	
replacement Creditworthy Landlord Guarantor is the surviving, acquiring or consolidated entity with respect to such Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). For the
purposes hereof, “Creditworthy Landlord Guarantor” shall mean a guarantor of the obligations of Landlord under this Lease that (i) has a tangible net worth of not less than $500,000,000.00 as demonstrated by reasonable evidence
thereof delivered by Landlord or the applicable Creditworthy Landlord Guarantor to Tenant, (ii) has a credit rating of not less than a “B3” from Moody’s Investors Service), a “B-”
from S&P Global Ratings, or “B-” from Fitch Ratings, or an equivalent rating by any successor rating service, in each case as demonstrated by reasonable evidence thereof delivered by Landlord or
the applicable Creditworthy Landlord Guarantor to Tenant, or (iii) is otherwise reasonably acceptable to Tenant, based on such landlord guarantor’s tangible net worth, cash flow, and/or other creditworthiness criteria. 


Section 34 Miscellaneous. 
  

	34.1	 Covenants Running with Land. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, all covenants, agreements,

extent applicable. 


  

	34.2	 Relationship of Parties. This Lease shall not constitute a joint venture, partnership or other business
relationship between Landlord and Tenant, except the relationship of a landlord and a tenant. All employees, agents or servants of Tenant employed in or about the Leased Premises shall be the agents, servants or employees of Tenant, and not of
Landlord. The provisions of this Lease are binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Landlord and Tenant and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 



 

	34.3	 No Waiver. The delay or failure of a Party to exercise any right or to insist on performance of any
obligation is not a waiver of that right or obligation or any similar right or obligation. Waivers are only effective if in writing. 


  

	34.4	 Waiver of Right to Jury Trial. Each Party hereby waives its rights to a jury trial of any claim or
course of action based upon or arising out of this Lease, the Leased Premises, the Access Areas or the Adjacent Premises. 


  

	34.5	 Time for Performance. If the time for performance of any obligation or taking any action under this
Lease expires on a day that is not a Business Day, the time for such performance or taking such action shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If the day on which Rent or any other payment due hereunder is payable falls on a day that
is not a Business Day, it shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day 


  

	34.6	 Non-Merger. The leasehold estate created hereby with respect to
the Leased Premises will not merge with the fee estate thereof in the event that the same Person acquires, owns or holds, directly or indirectly, the fee estate and the leasehold estate in the Leased Premises, provided that this Section 33.6
shall not restrict termination of the leasehold estate in the Leased Premises upon a termination of this Lease in accordance with the terms hereof. 



  
 57 














	34.7	 Cooperation of the Parties. The Parties acknowledge that Landlord’s and Tenant’s individual
ventures, and performance of their duties under this Lease, will by their nature require extensive cooperation between the Parties. Accordingly, the Parties wish to express their intention to cooperate with one another with regard to matters set
forth in this Lease as well as any related matters, including site security, utility hook-ups, identification of existing utility lines and access. 



 

	34.8	 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Lease, whether express or implied, is intended to confer
any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Lease on any Person other than the Parties hereto, any Leasehold Mortgagee, the Landlord Indemnitees and Tenant Indemnitees set forth in Section 13, and their respective successors and permitted
assigns, nor is anything in this Lease intended to relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any third party to either Party. 


  

	34.9	 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, (a) Tenant will
not be liable to Landlord or any Landlord Indemnitee for any incidental, consequential, indirect, special, exemplary, contingent, or punitive damages (including loss of profits due to business interruptions or otherwise) in connection with this
Lease or the transactions contemplated herein, (b) Landlord will not be liable to Tenant or any Tenant Indemnitee for any incidental, consequential, indirect, special, exemplary, contingent, or punitive damages (including loss of profits due to

to provide the Support Services as required hereunder in excess of $10,000,000.00 in the aggregate. 


  

	34.10	 Savings Clause. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between any terms and conditions of this
Lease or the Exhibits hereto, on the one hand, and the express terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, on the other hand, the express terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement shall govern and control to the extent of such conflict or
inconsistency. Except for the terms and conditions in Exhibit K, in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between any terms and conditions of the Exhibits to this Lease, on the one hand, and the express terms and conditions of this
Lease, on the other hand, the express terms and conditions of this Lease shall govern and control to the extent of such conflict or inconsistency. 


  

	34.11	 Not Construed Against Drafter. The Parties acknowledge that they have had an adequate opportunity to
review each and every provision contained in this Lease and to submit the same to legal counsel for review and comment. Based on the foregoing, the rule of construction that a contract be construed against the drafter, if any, will not be applied in
the interpretation and construction of this Lease. 


  

	34.12	 Governing Law. This Lease will be construed and governed in accordance with the substantive laws of the
State of Indiana without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law or choice of law. 



  
 58

provision of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 Exhibit G 

Support Services 
 Landlord
and Tenant acknowledge that business operations at the Complex have historically been conducted in an integrated manner. 
 Accordingly,
Landlord and/or its Affiliates, including Alcoa Power Generating Inc. (“APGI”) (collectively, “Provider”), as owners and/or operators of the Smelter and Power Plant, have historically provided a variety of support services to the
Rolling Mill. 
 In particular, Landlord has historically provided potable water, compressed air and laboratory services to the Rolling
Mill, and APGI, who is an owner and the operator of the Power Plant, has historically generated and provided electricity, steam and hot water to both the Rolling Mill and Smelter, through the use of common infrastructure and internal systems (the
provision of potable water, compressed air, laboratory services, electricity, steam and hot water to the Rolling Mill are collectively referred to herein as the “Support Services”). 

Landlord and Tenant agree that, as it relates to the Support Services, continued operation of the Rolling Mill, Smelter and Power Plant in an
integrated manner on a temporary basis is necessary and practicable for the continued efficient operation of those facilities. 
 1.
PRODUCTION AND SUPPLY OF SUPPORT SERVICES 
 1.1. Production and Supply of Support Services. Subject to the terms, conditions, and
limitations set forth in the Lease, Provider will provide the Rolling Mill with Support Services consistent with historical practices through existing systems and delivery points as described below. 

1.2. Electricity. With regards to the provision of electricity, Provider will utilize the existing internal systems, consistent with historical
practices, to provide Tenant with electricity for use at the Rolling Mill. Electricity shall be metered at the locations identified on Exhibit G-1 (“Electric Meter Points”). Provider shall be
responsible for operating and maintaining the lines, infrastructure, and equipment external to the Leased Premises in accordance with prudent industry practice. Tenant will be responsible for operating and maintaining all lines, infrastructure, and
equipment internal to the Leased Premises in accordance with prudent industry practice. The electricity will be delivered to Tenant at the boundary of the Leased Premises. The charges payable by Tenant for electricity shall be as set forth below.

 1.3. Steam. With regards to the provision of Steam, Provider will utilize the existing internal systems, consistent with historical
practices, to provide Tenant with steam for the sole purpose of heating certain buildings within the Leased Premises identified as buildings: 01, 02, 04, 05, 06, 45, 46, 47, 47A, 47B, 47C, 48, 49, 325, 344, and 348. Steam shall be delivered to
Tenant at the boundary of the Leased Premises identified on Exhibit G-2 (“Steam Delivery Points”). Provider shall be responsible for operating and maintaining the lines, infrastructure,


  
 G-1 













 
and equipment external to the Leased Premises in accordance with prudent industry practice. Tenant shall be responsible for operating and maintaining all lines, infrastructure, and equipment
related to the steam system internal to the Leased Premises in accordance with prudent industry practice. The charges payable by Tenant for steam shall be set forth below. 

1.4. Hot Water. With regards to the provision of hot water, Provider will utilize the existing internal systems, consistent with historical
practices, to provide Tenant with hot water for use at the Rolling Mill. Hot water shall be delivered to Tenant at the boundary of the Leased Premises on Exhibit G-3 (“Hot Water Delivery Point”).
Provider shall be responsible for operating and maintaining the lines, infrastructure and equipment external to the Leased Premises in accordance with prudent industry practice. Tenant shall be responsible for operating and maintaining all lines,
infrastructure, and equipment related to the hot water system internal to the Leased Premises in accordance with prudent industry practice. The charges payable by Tenant for hot water shall be set forth below. 

1.5. Potable Water. With regards to the provision of potable water, Provider will utilize the existing internal systems, consistent with
historical practices, to provide Tenant with potable water for use at the Rolling Mill. Potable water shall be delivered to Tenant at the boundary of the Leased Premises identified on Exhibit G-4
(“Potable Water Delivery Point”). Provider shall be responsible for operating and maintaining the lines, infrastructure, and equipment external to the Leased Premises in accordance with prudent industry practice. Tenant shall be
responsible for operating and maintaining all lines, infrastructure, and equipment related to the Potable water system internal to the Leased Premises in accordance with prudent industry practice. The charges payable by Tenant for potable water
shall be set forth below. 
 1.6. Compressed Air. The compressed air system is integrated throughout the Leased Premises and Landlord’s
Smelter operations. Tenant will be responsible for the operation and maintenance of all lines, infrastructure, and equipment internal to the Leased Premises, including but not limited to the northern centrifugal compressor system in building 816U,
in accordance with historical and prudent industry practice. The Provider will be responsible for the operation and maintenance of all lines, infrastructure, and equipment external to the Leased Premises, including but not limited to the southern
compressor system in building 311, in accordance with historical and prudent industry practice. Due to the integrated nature of the compressor system, Tenant shall have one joy compressor operating and another joy compressor online and available to
begin supplying the compressed air system if needed, at all times. Should either Party become aware of abnormally high consumption of compressed air, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to identify and address any leaks in the compressed air
system. If either Party plans maintenance that will impact the number of compressors available for the supply of the system, the Parties will cooperate in good faith as rental compressor units must be brought onsite and preparations made to connect
them to the compressed air system before the planned maintenance work can begin. Any preventative maintenance that will interrupt or alter the operation of the compressed air system must be communicated by the Party performing such maintenance at
least 4 weeks in advance of the planned work. The actual date and time of the work shall be agreed to by both Parties so that additional monitoring and needed coordination can be completed prior to and during the interruption. The Parties will
cooperate in good faith to monitor and operate the system in accordance with historical practices.

 1.7. Laboratory Services. Provider will utilize the existing laboratory and ancillary
equipment, consistent with historical practices, to provide Tenant with laboratory testing services. In connection with such laboratory testing services, Tenant will provide samples from (i) outfalls, Tenant Sampling Locations (as defined in
Exhibit K), and the Wastewater Treatment Plants in accordance with the Discharge Terms and Conditions, (ii) cooling towers within Tenant’s Operations, (iii) the potable water system, (iv) surfactant samples collected from the
coil coating line remediation area, and (v) process oil samples from Tenant’s Operations, to Provider at Building 02. Provider will analyze such samples and provide the results in accordance with historical practice. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, during an interim period Provider will, in lieu of Tenant, take any such samples directly from Tenant Sampling Locations as designated by Tenant. During such interim period, Tenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
begin taking samples as soon as possible directly from those designated Tenant Sampling Locations, and will provide Provider not less than five (5) days’ notice before beginning to directly take the samples from those designated Tenant
Sampling Locations. 
 1.8. Dispatch of Support Services. The Support Services shall be dispatched in a manner that is consistent with
historical practices and the integrated nature of the Power Plant, Rolling Mill, and Smelter, and in compliance with any Applicable Law including, but not limited to, any requirement for environmental compliance or the terms of any permit. Provider
does not guarantee or warrant that Support Services will not fail or be interrupted or that the quality of Support Services will not vary or fluctuate. Provider shall re-establish Support Services in
accordance with reasonable diligence consistent with prudent industry practice with minimal delay when failures, interruptions or quality-of-service variations or
fluctuations occur. Provider shall not be required to produce, provide, or otherwise deliver Support Services in excess of the capacity or volume or reserved for Tenant as set forth in the Lease, or where no capacity or volume is stated, the
historical capacity or volume associated with the Rolling Mill. 
 1.9. Coordination. Provider and Tenant shall work together to schedule
outages of the Support Services as reasonably required to conduct maintenance and, as needed, major overhauls and improvements sufficient to enable Provider to continue to maintain the facilities in accordance with prudent industry practices and
Applicable Law. The Parties agree to coordinate such outages, as practicable, to coincide with production schedules at the Rolling Mill and the Smelter. To the extent such outages cannot be so coordinated, or an emergency repair is needed, the
Parties agree to coordinate and cooperate with each other (and any required third parties, including but not limited to Midcontinent Independent System Operator (“MISO”)), in order to schedule maintenance or make repairs in a manner which,
to the extent reasonably practicable, minimizes interruption to the supply of Support Services to the Rolling Mill. If maintenance work is required on the distribution network and the nearest point of isolation is on the other side of the Leased
Premises boundary, the Party responsible for such maintenance or repair will perform work in accordance with a safety work plan agreed to by the Parties and the isolation and lock and tag procedure set forth in Exhibit N. The Party performing
the work will be given access to that isolation point by the other Party.

 1.10. New Coating Line. In the event Tenant installs a new coating line at the Rolling
Mill, Provider will provide additional capacity of Hot Water and Potable Water as reasonably required by Tenant for the operation of such new coating line, to the extent that Provider has additional capacity available, from its existing internal
systems, at the prices set forth below. Tenant may also contract for an additional Contract Capacity in accordance with 2.1. 
 2.
CHARGES, METERING, AND INVOICING 
 2.1. Electricity Charges. Tenant will contract for 75 MW of contract capacity (the “Contract
Capacity”). If additional contract capacity is needed, then Tenant may increase the Contract Capacity by up to an additional 10 MW with 180 days’ advance notice to Provider, resulting in a maximum Contract Capacity of 85MW. Contract
Capacity may not be reduced without the consent of Landlord. If Tenant’s peak consumption exceeds the Contract Capacity in a one-hour period in a given month, then the Contract Capacity will be set to the
new contract capacity for that month forward. Should Tenant’s Contract Capacity increase without Tenant having provided 180 days’ advance notice to Provider, as described in the preceding sentence, then Tenant shall be responsible to
reimburse Provider for any resulting third-party charges incurred by Provider. Tenant shall purchase all electric energy associated with and provided from the Contract Capacity (the “Contract Energy”). Except as may otherwise be modified
by Sections 2.2 and Section 2.9 below, Tenant shall pay the following for the provision of Contract Energy that is metered at the Electric Meter Points: 
  

	 	2.1.1.	 Capacity Charge. A Capacity Charge of $5.00 per kw-month
of Contract Capacity. 


  

	 	2.1.2.	 Energy Charge. An Energy Charge of $28.50 per MWh of electric energy delivered to the Electric

 Exhibit H 

Landlord’s Transition Work 

In order to transition Tenant’s Operations from being dependent on Provider’s provision of Support Services to utilizing facilities
and infrastructure substantially dedicated to Tenant’s Operations, with respect to each component of such Support Services (i.e., electricity, steam, hot water, potable water and compressed air), Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense and
in no event later than June 30, 2024, following good faith consultation with Tenant, construct and install new facilities and infrastructure on the Leased Premises for the provision of electricity as described in Section 1 below, and
either construct and install new facilities and infrastructure on the Leased Premises, relocate existing facilities and infrastructure from the Adjacent Premises to the Leased Premises, and/or grant to Tenant a right of access to the Adjacent
Premises to allow for Tenant’s use of existing facilities and infrastructure located thereon (including, without limitation, through reasonable recorded easement,
right-of-way and other instruments and agreements), simultaneously conveying title to such facilities and infrastructure or components thereof to Tenant, in each case to
ensure the continued availability to Tenant of electricity, steam, hot water, potable water and compressed air during the Lease Term. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall perform the work and take the other actions
described below (collectively, “Landlord’s Transition Work”) no later than the date as of which Landlord has ceased to provide the corresponding component of Support Services, such that Tenant does not experience an interruption in
Tenant’s Operations (other than temporary outages consistent with historical levels): 
 1. Electricity.  

High and Medium Voltage Power. High and medium voltage electricity is currently produced at the Power Plant and supplied to the Rolling
Mill through existing substations and transformers located on the Adjacent Premises and the Leased Premises. Prior to the Trigger Event (as defined on Schedule A), Landlord shall construct infrastructure and access points for electric power to be
supplied by a third party electric power supplier to the existing substations and through the existing network at the Complex to continue to supply Tenant with high and medium voltage electric power sufficient for operation of the Rolling Mill,
including the addition of a new roll coating line. At such time as Landlord has completed the aforementioned infrastructure and connections – and prior to the Trigger Event (collectively, the “Power Separation”), Landlord shall,
taking into consideration Tenant’s input in engineering and planning decisions, construct infrastructure, including a substation and transformers, power equipment, and related transmission lines and all other infrastructure in accordance with
the option identified on Exhibit H-1 as FEL Preferred Solution Option 4, on the Leased Premises sufficient to enable a direct connection to a third party electric power supplier; the cost of which shall not
exceed $38 million dollars. In the event the cost exceeds $38 million dollars, such additional costs will be borne by Tenant. The foregoing shall be completed for the purpose of allowing Tenant to operate and maintain such electrical
system on its own behalf and at its own cost for the supply of high and medium voltage electrical power to the Rolling Mill, including the addition of a new roll coating line – and, at such 












 
time, so long as Tenant’s high and medium voltage electrical power supply is otherwise operational, in each case such that Tenant will not experience an interruption in Tenant’s
Operations (other than temporary outages consistent with historical levels), Landlord’s responsibility for providing high and medium voltage electrical power to Tenant shall cease. For the avoidance of doubt, the $38 million dollar
limitation set forth above shall only apply to the HV/MV Power/VAr Compensation – Option 4 line item on Exhibit H-1. 

Low Voltage Power. Low voltage power is transformed from the high and medium voltage power supplied to the Complex through certain
infrastructure, some of which are located on the Leased Premises and some of which are located on the Adjacent Premises. Tenant agrees that, at the request of Landlord, from and after the Power Separation, to continue to maintain and operate the
transformers and circuits creating and supplying low voltage power to the Adjacent Premises and to provide Landlord low voltage power for use at the Adjacent Premises unless and until Landlord elects to cease requiring such power or makes other
arrangements to obtain such power from a separate source. During such time as Tenant is providing such power, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant therefor on a monthly basis based on metered consumption at commercially reasonable rates to be mutually
agreed by the parties. 
 2. Steam and Hot Water. Steam and hot water are currently produced on the Adjacent Premises and supplied to
the Rolling Mill through loops located on the Adjacent Premises and the Leased Premises. Prior to ceasing the supply of steam and hot water to the Rolling Mill, Landlord shall purchase and connect a new boiler or boilers at the locations within the
Leased Premises identified on Exhibit H-2 (or such other location or locations as subsequently agreed to by the parties) and construct such infrastructure to connect such boilers to the existing or new loops
so as to permit the provision of steam and hot water to permit the continued operation of the Rolling Mill. At such time as such boiler or boilers and infrastructure are operational, Landlord shall convey them to Tenant and Tenant shall take full
responsibility for operating and maintaining the steam and hot water systems and supply for its own purposes and Landlord’s responsibility for providing such services and supply shall cease. 

3. Potable Water. Potable water is currently pumped from wells and filtered through a filtration plant located on the Adjacent Premises
as identified on Exhibit H-3 (the “Filtration Plant”) and is supplied to the Rolling Mill through loops located on the Adjacent Premises and the Leased Premises. Landlord shall operate and maintain
in good working order the Filtration Plant and all related treatment, storage and conveyance facilities in accordance with prudent industry practice. Prior to ceasing the supply of potable water to the Rolling Mill (the “Water
Separation”), Landlord shall convey to Tenant the Filtration Plant and all related treatment, storage and conveyance facilities and any buildings in which the Filtration Plant is housed and convey unto Tenant the right of non-exclusive access over the Adjacent Premises to permit Tenant to access the Filtration Plant and any related piping and equipment; all for the purpose of allowing Tenant to operate and maintain the Filtration
Plant or such other filtration facilities and related piping and equipment on its own behalf and at its own cost for the supply of potable water to the Rolling Mill – and, at such time, so long as Tenant’s potable water supply is otherwise
operational, in each case such that Tenant will not experience an interruption in Tenant’s Operations (other than temporary 












 
outages consistent with historical levels). Tenant agrees that, at the request of Landlord, from and after the Water Separation described in the foregoing sentence, to continue to maintain and
operate the Filtration Plant to supply the Adjacent Premises with potable water unless and until (y) Landlord elects to cease requiring such potable water or (z) Tenant has otherwise made arrangements at its own cost and expense to
otherwise supply itself with potable water whereby it no longer requires to use the Filtration Plant for that purpose (in which event the Filtration Plant shall revert to the Landlord). During any time as Tenant is providing potable water to
Landlord, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant therefor on a monthly basis based on metered consumption at commercially reasonable rates to be mutually agreed by the parties. 

4. Compressed Air. Compressed air is currently supplied to the Rolling Mill through an integrated system throughout the Complex
(including compressors located on both the Leased Premises and the Adjacent Premises). Prior to ceasing the supply of compressed air to the Rolling Mill, Landlord shall move the existing compressors and equipment to, and/or purchase and connect new
compressors within, the Leased Premises (at such location or locations as subsequently agreed to by the parties) and construct such infrastructure to connect such compressors to the existing or new loops so as to provide compressed air service
sufficient for the continued, independent operation of the Rolling Mill (the “Compressed Air Separation”). Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Compressed Air Separation is intended to reflect the compressed air separation
proposal set forth on Exhibit H-4 attached hereto, and shall reasonably agree on the scope of work to be done and the costs and expenses chargeable to the Compressed Air Separation in a manner
consistent with Exhibit H-4, which costs and expenses shall be limited to actual costs and expenses. Landlord and Tenant shall equally share the costs and expenses within the scope agreed upon pursuant
to the previous sentence. Upon Landlord’s completion of the Compressed Air Separation, Tenant shall take full responsibility for operating and maintaining the compressed air systems and supply compressed air to itself for its own purposes and,
so long as Tenant’s compressed air system is operational, in each case such that Tenant will not experience an interruption in Tenant’s Operations (other than temporary outages consistent with historical levels), Landlord’s
responsibility for performing the Compressed Air Separation and providing compressed air service and supply shall cease. 
 5. Access;
Consultation. The Parties agree to consult with each other from time to time as reasonably necessary and otherwise cooperate with each other in good faith so as to facilitate performance by Landlord of Landlord’s Transition Work, with the
understanding that Tenant may be required, upon reasonable advance notice from Landlord, to abide temporary outages of Support Services related thereto until the completion thereof. With respect to each project comprising Landlord’s Transition
Work, Landlord shall share designs for such project and the plans and specifications for all work contemplated thereby with Tenant and solicit Tenant’s input on such designs, plans and specifications before implementing such designs or
performing any such work.
