Omnibus Amendment to Rules and Terms and Conditions of all Awards

 Exhibit 10.(tt) 
 ALCOA INC. 
 Omnibus Amendment to Rules and Terms and Conditions 
 of all Awards under the 
 2004 Alcoa
Stock Incentive Plan 
  

	1.	The 2004 Alcoa Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) defines “Fair Market Value” as follows: 

 “Fair Market Value” means, with respect to any property, the market value of such property determined by such methods or procedures as
shall be established from time to time by the Committee. 
  

	2.	The Committee has determined to apply the following definition of “Fair Market Value” to Awards granted under the 2004 Alcoa Stock Incentive Plan:

 Fair market value per share of common stock on any given date is the closing price per share of common stock on that date as
reported on the New York Stock Exchange or other stock exchange on which the common stock principally trades. If the New York Stock Exchange or such other exchange is not open for business on the date fair market value is being determined, the
closing price as reported for the next business day on which that exchange is open for business will be used. 
 3. The foregoing definition shall apply to
all Awards granted under the Plan on or after the effective date hereof, and shall amend the definition of “fair market value” in the Rules for Stock Option Awards, the Rules for Stock Awards, the Rules for Performance Share Awards and the
Terms and Conditions for Special Retention Stock Awards applicable to such grants.

 Mr. Klaus Kleinfeld 
 Alcoa Inc. 
 390 Park Avenue

 New York, New York 10022 
 Dear Klaus: 
 As President and Chief Operating Officer, you are a key part of the senior executive management team of Alcoa Inc. (the “Company”). The business
relationships you have developed both inside and outside of the Company, your knowledge of the Company’s business affairs and your management experience are all of great importance to the Company, and I value your continuing contributions. As I
am sure you can also appreciate, it is important to the Company’s future success that you, me and the other members of the senior executive leadership team are able to enhance our ability to increase shareholder value, and if necessary, to ease
transitions when it is in the best interest of the Company to do so. Accordingly, it is my pleasure to be able to provide you with this letter agreement (the “Agreement”) which sets forth the terms of an arrangement between you and the
Company concerning your continuing and post-employment obligations. 
 Voluntary Resignation or Retirement  
 You may terminate your employment relationship with the Company by voluntarily resigning or by retiring. If you wish to resign or retire, you will
provide the Company with at least three (3) months’ advance written notice (the “Notice Period”), after which the following conditions shall apply: 
 A. The Company Accepts Your Notice of Resignation or Retirement. If the Company accepts your notice to resign or retire, your active service with the Company will be terminated at the end of the Notice Period.
Except for the lump sum payment upon your execution of the release attached as Exhibit A (the “Release Agreement”) and discussed in paragraph C, subsequent to the Notice Period there will be no further compensation paid by the Company.

 During the Notice Period, the Company may in its sole discretion, assign you such duties as it sees fit, or elect to advance your
resignation or retirement date. Should 

 
the Company advance your resignation or retirement date, the Company will continue to pay your base salary through the Notice Period. 
 B. The Company Requests You to Extend Your Notice Period. If the Company at it sole discretion, desires that you stay longer than the Notice
Period, at the Company’s request and with your mutual agreement, the Notice Period will be extended for an additional agreed upon period of time (the “Extended Notice Period”). The Extended Notice Period will not exceed twenty-four
(24) months. 
 During either the Notice Period or the Extended Notice Period, the Company may in its sole discretion, assign you such
duties as it sees fit, or elect to advance your resignation or retirement date. Should the Company advance your resignation or retirement date, the Company will continue to pay your base salary through the Notice Period and the Extended Notice
Period. If you fulfill your obligations as set forth in this Agreement, continue to work through the Extended Notice Period and you execute the Release Agreement, following the date of your resignation or retirement the Company will continue to pay
you your monthly base salary as of your last day of employment with the Company, less any amounts required or authorized to be withheld by law, for a period which is equivalent to the Extended Notice Period (“Salary Equivalent”). The
Salary Equivalent will be paid in lieu of any other involuntary separation benefits, severance payments or any other such payments which you may be eligible to receive from the Company. It is also understood that the Salary Equivalent will not be
paid to you in the event that you receive severance pay and benefits under the Company’s Change in Control Severance Plan. In addition, if you fulfill the aforementioned obligations, you will be provided with additional pension accrual
equivalent to the Extended Notice Period. Upon your retirement, your retirement benefit will be calculated as if you had the additional pension accrual. The additional pension benefit as calculated under the plan will be paid to you as a
non-qualified retirement benefit. After your resignation or retirement at the end of the Extended Notice Period you will also be provided with continued healthcare benefits for a period equivalent to the Extended Notice Period. 
 C. Severance. In conjunction with your execution of the Release Agreement, the Company shall pay you a lump sum payment in an amount equal to
$50,000.00 (the “Severance Payment”), less all amounts required to be withheld by law. The Release Agreement will become effective pursuant to its terms. 
  

 2 

 Involuntary Termination 
 The Company may terminate your employment for any reason, including with or without Cause. 
 Any voluntary
termination of your employment will be deemed an involuntary termination of your employment “without Cause” under this Agreement (a “Qualifying Termination”) if such resignation occurs during the thirty (30) day period
following the date on which the current Chief Executive Officer and Chairman retires and you are not immediately thereafter appointed to succeed him as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board; provided, the appointment of a non-executive
Chairman of the Board at any time will not constitute a basis for a Qualifying Termination provided that you, at such time as you then are or thereafter become the Chief Executive Officer, report directly to the Board. 
 If you are involuntarily terminated or if a Qualifying Termination has occurred, the following conditions shall apply: 
 A. Involuntary Termination with Cause. In the event that it is determined by the Company that your active service will be terminated for reasons
which in its sole discretion constitute Cause, your service will be immediately terminated and there will be no further compensation paid by the Company. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall have the following meaning: (i) any refusal by you to follow the lawful directives of the Board, or while you are Chief Operating Officer, the lawful
directives of the Chief Executive Officer, which are consistent with the scope and nature of your duties and responsibilities; (ii) your conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a felony or of any crime involving moral
turpitude, fraud or embezzlement; (iii) any gross negligence or willful misconduct in the conduct of your duties; (iv) any material breach of any one or more of the restrictive covenants as are applicable to senior executives of the
Company as of October 1, 2007, including without limitation, the restrictive covenants under this Agreement; or (v) any violation of any statutory or common law duty of loyalty to the Company or any of its subsidiaries; provided, no act or
omission shall be “willful” if conducted in good faith and with a reasonable belief that such conduct was in the best interests of the Company. 
 B. Involuntary Termination without Cause or a Qualifying Termination. In the event that a Qualifying Termination event has occurred or it is determined by the Company that your active service will be terminated
for reasons, which in its sole discretion are without Cause, and you fulfill your obligations as set forth in this 

  

 3 

 
Agreement, and execute the Release Agreement, the Company shall pay you an amount equivalent to your base salary plus your target annual bonus as of your
last day of employment with the Company, less any amounts required or authorized to be withheld by law, for a period of two (2) years following your termination date (“Salary Continuance”). The Salary Continuance will be paid in lieu
of any other involuntary separation benefits, severance payments, or any other such payments which you may be eligible to receive from the Company. It is also understood that the Salary Continuance will not be paid to you in the event that you
receive severance pay and benefits under the Company’s Change in Control Severance Plan. In conjunction with your execution of the Release Agreement, the Company shall pay you the Severance Payment. In addition, if you fulfill the
aforementioned obligations, you will be provided with two (2) additional years of pension accrual. Upon your retirement, your retirement benefit will be calculated as if you had two additional years of pension accrual. The additional pension
benefit as calculated under the plan will be paid to you as a non-qualified retirement benefit. After your termination, you will be provided with continued healthcare benefits for a period of two (2) years after your termination date.

 If you are entitled to receive severance benefits under this Agreement, you will not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment
provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, and any amount received from subsequent employment will not offset your Salary Continuation payments (as defined under this Agreement). 
 Restrictive Covenants 
 In light of the unique
character of your position with the Company, the business relationships you have developed and will continue to develop while employed by the Company, and your knowledge of the Company’s business affairs including the Confidential Information
(as defined below), and with the acknowledgment of the continuing consideration which you will receive from the Company as a member of its senior executive management team, and the personal financial security which is provided under this Agreement
in the event of your Involuntary Termination, or in the event of a change in control as defined in the Company’s Change in Control Severance Plan, you agree to the following Restrictive Covenants: 
 Noncompetition: During your employment and for a period of two (2) years thereafter (regardless of whether the termination of your employment
is voluntary or involuntary), you will not directly or indirectly provide services, whether as a director, officer, partner, owner, employee, inventor, consultant, advisor, agent, or otherwise, to any domestic or international business or firm that
is engaged or has plans to become engaged in the manufacturing, fabricating, distributing or selling of aluminum and/or 

  

 4 

 
aluminum related products for the aerospace, automotive, packaging, home exterior or other aluminum fabricated product markets, the mining of bauxite,
conversion and refining of bauxite into alumina and/or the sale or distribution of alumina or alumina related chemical products or any other line of business in which the Company is involved or becomes involved during your employment with the
Company (collectively, the “Aluminum Business”). However, you may own up to five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of any publicly traded company. 
 It is not the Company’s intention to restrict or limit your activities, unless it is believed that there is a substantial possibility that your future employment, or activities in any of the lines of business in
which the Company is engaged may be detrimental to the Company. So as to not unduly restrict your future employment, if you desire to enter into any employment arrangement or relationship with any entity in the above identified markets within the
two year period, please consult with me to discuss your intended relationship with the competitive entity. You and the Company recognize that due to the many different businesses which presently compete, or which in the future may compete with the
Company in the Aluminum Business, the Company will discuss your desire to enter into a business or professional relationship with any manufacturer or firm which may be perceived as a competitor. Please contact the Company’s General Counsel if
you wish to discuss future business relationships. 
 Nonsolicitation: During your employment and for a period of two (2) years
thereafter (regardless of whether the termination of your employment was voluntary or involuntary), you will not directly or indirectly (i) solicit, induce or attempt to solicit or induce any current or future employee of the Company to leave
the Company for any reason, or (ii) solicit business from, or engage in business with, any current or future customer or supplier of the Company which you met and dealt with during your employment with the Company for any purpose. In the event
that you become aware that any present or future employee of the Company has been hired by any business or firm with which you are then affiliated, you will immediately notify the Company’s General Counsel to confirm your non-solicitation of
said employee. 
 Confidentiality: During your employment with the Company and at all times thereafter, you will maintain the
confidentiality of any and all information about the Company which is not generally known or available outside the Company, including without limitation, strategic plans, technical and operating know-how, business strategy, trade secrets, customer
information, business operations and other proprietary information (“Confidential Information”), and you will not, directly or indirectly, disclose any Confidential Information to any person or entity, or use any Confidential Information,
whether for your benefit or the benefit of any new employer or any other person or entity, or in any other manner that is detrimental to or inconsistent with any interest of the Company. If you receive notice that you may be required to disclose any

  

 5 

 Confidential Information pursuant to a subpoena or other lawful process, you must notify the Company’s General
Counsel immediately. 
 You acknowledge and agree that given the nature of the Company’s business, which is conducted throughout the
world, and your position of confidence and trust with the Company, the scope and duration of these Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company. You further acknowledge that you have
received substantial compensation from the Company and that your general skills and abilities are such that you can be gainfully employed in noncompetitive employment, and that this Agreement will in no way prevent you from earning a living
following your employment with the Company. 
 You also recognize and agree that any breach or threatened or anticipated breach of any part
of these Restrictive Covenants will result in irreparable harm to the Company, and that the remedy at law for any such breach or threatened breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies that may be
available to the Company, you agree that the Company shall be entitled to obtain an injunction, without posting a bond, to prevent any breach or threatened breach of any part of these Restrictive Covenants. You agree to reimburse the Company for all
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, incurred by the Company in connection with the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement. 
 In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction finds that the limitations set forth in these Restrictive Covenants are overly broad with respect to duration, geographic scope or scope of prohibited activities,
such court shall have the authority to reduce the duration, area or activities of such provisions so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable law, and such provisions shall then be enforced as modified. In the event that
a court reduces the duration of the restriction, any unpaid Salary Equivalent or Salary Continuance, as set forth above, shall be reduced on a pro rata basis. 
 Governing Law; Jurisdiction  
 This Agreement shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York without reference to its choice of law principles. Any action arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be brought in the state or Federal courts located in New York City, and you and the Company consent to the jurisdiction and
venue of such courts. 
 Amendment; Waiver 

  

 6 

 No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived, or discharged unless such waiver, modification or
discharge is in writing and signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Any failure by you or the Company to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provisions or any right to enforce
each and every provision in the future. A waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. 
 Successors; Binding Agreement  
 The Company shall have the right to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement
to any entity that acquires all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and continues the Company’s business. The rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit and shall be binding upon the
successors and assigns of the Company. 
  

 7 

 Severability 
 In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement shall not in way be affected or
impaired thereby. 
 Entire Agreement 
 You acknowledge that you have not relied upon any representations (whether oral or written) from the Company, other than as set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between you and the
Company and merges and supersedes any and all prior discussions, agreements, arrangements and understandings with regard to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified, amended, discharged or supplemented in any respect, except by a
subsequent writing signed by you and the Company. In the event that the Salary Equivalent, Salary Continuance, Severance Payment, additional years of pension service and continued healthcare benefits in the aggregate are more than 2.99 times of your
base salary and bonus, the payments which you will be eligible to receive under this Agreement will be reduced accordingly. Except for involuntary separation benefits or other similar severance payments, this Agreement does not supersede the terms
of your employment agreement dated August 14, 2007 or any other compensation plans, stock option programs, welfare benefit plans, or other such plans or programs in which you are eligible to participate, or may become eligible to participate.

 If you agree to the terms of this Agreement, please sign on the line provided on the next page and return two signed copies to Donna
Dabney, Corporate Secretary . A fully executed copy will be returned to you for your files after it is signed by the Company. 
 Sincerely,
