Elliott Associates, L.P. and Elliott International, L.P., together with the other participants in such proxy solicitation (collectively, “Elliott”), have filed a definitive proxy statement and accompanying BLUE proxy card with the Securities and Exchange Commission to be used to solicit votes for the election of its slate of four highly-qualified director nominees at the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders of Arconic Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation.

 

On March 17, 2017, Elliott issued the following statement:

“These governance proposals are just ‘window dressing’ to give the appearance of change. If Arconic was truly interested in real governance reform, the Board would have proposed to reincorporate this year in Delaware with an annually-elected board, like Alcoa Corporation.”
