 Exhibit 10.Y(2) 
 AMENDMENT TO 
 ALCOA SUPPLEMENTAL PENSION PLAN FOR SENIOR
EXECUTIVES 
 Pursuant to Section 5.1, which provides that the Plan may be amended, the Plan is revised as follows:

  

	1.	Section 5.1 is amended to replace the reference in the final sentence to “the Board of Directors’ Inside Director Committee” with “Benefits
Management Committee”: 

 This Plan may also be amended, from time to time by the Benefits Management
Committee, except for amendments which have more than a minimal effect upon the Company’s cost of providing benefits for Company employees at the officer level. 
  

	2.	The following new Article VII – Claims and Appeals is added: 

 ARTICLE VII – CLAIMS AND APPEALS 
 7.1 If a claim by a Participant, Surviving Spouse or beneficiary is denied in whole or in part, the Participant, Surviving Spouse or beneficiary, or their representative will receive written notice from the plan administrator. This notice
will include the reasons for denial, the specific plan provision involved, an explanation of how claims are reviewed, the procedure for requesting a review of the denied claim, and a description of the information that must be submitted with the
appeal. The Participant, Surviving Spouse or beneficiary, or their representative, may file a written appeal for review of a denied claim to the plan administrator. The process and the time frames for the determination claims and appeals are as
follows: 
 (a) The plan administrator reviews initial claim and makes determination within 90 days of the date
the claim is received. 
 (b) The plan administrator may extend the above 90-day period an additional 90 days if
required due to special circumstances beyond control of plan administrator. 
 (c) The Participant, Surviving
Spouse or beneficiary, or their representative, may submit an appeal of a denied claim within 60 days of receipt of the denial. 
 (d) The plan administrator reviews and makes a determination on the appeal within 60 days of the date the appeal was received. 
 (e) The plan administrator may extend the above 60-day period an additional 60 days if required by special circumstances
beyond the control of the plan administrator. 
 7.2 In the case where the plan administrator requires an
extension of the period to provide a determination on an initial claim or an appeal, the Plan will notify the

  

 1 








 
Participant, Surviving Spouse or beneficiary, or their representative, prior to the expiration of the initial determination period. The notification will describe the circumstances requiring the
extension and the date a determination is expected to be made. If additional information is required from the Participant, Surviving Spouse or beneficiary, the determination period will be suspended until the earlier of i) the date the information
is received by the plan administrator or ii) 45 days from the date the information was requested. 
 7.3
Participants, Surviving Spouses or Beneficiaries, or their representative, who having received an adverse appeal determination and thereby exhausted the remedies provided under the this Plan, proceed to file suit in state or federal court, must file
such suit within 180 days from the date of the adverse appeal determination notice. 
  

	3.	In all other respects, the Plan is ratified and confirmed.
