## Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On May 6, 2026, Alcoa Corporation ("Alcoa" or the "Company") held its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"). At the Annual Meeting, Alcoa's stockholders approved the Alcoa Corporation Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (as Amended and Restated) (the "Amended Plan").

The Amended Plan is a long-term incentive plan pursuant to which awards may be granted to non-employee directors and employees of Alcoa and its subsidiaries, including stock options, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted shares, restricted share units, performance awards, other awards, and cash incentive awards. The Amended Plan was amended principally to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the current plan from 30,000,000 to 38,000,000, subject to the adjustment and certain other provisions of the Amended Plan. Additional principal changes to the Amended Plan include (i) the addition of a cash incentive award section; (ii) providing for minimum vesting or minimum performance period requirements of one year for all awards (subject to limited exceptions); (iii) the elimination of outdated provisions, such as relating to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; (iv) certain clarifying changes and revisions, as well as other updated administrative provisions and definitions; and (v) the extension of the plan term to May 6, 2036.

The Amended Plan also generally provides that awards to a non-employee director made under the Amended Plan will not exceed an aggregate value of $750,000 based on grant date fair values (determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) in any one fiscal year period, subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended Plan. The Amended Plan limits the number of shares of common stock that may be subject to incentive stock options to 38,000,000. The Amended Plan has a fungible plan design that provides for share counting on a one-for-one basis with respect to stock option and SAR awards and, following the Annual Meeting, a 1.69 shares for every one share issued pursuant to share-based awards (other than stock options and SARs).

The foregoing description of the Amended Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended Plan, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
