This is an historic moment for RTI.
This morning we announced that RTI has entered into a
definitive agreement to be acquired by Alcoa, a $24 billion
company with a more than 125-year history, as part of a $1.5
billion deal.
Alcoa’s offer confirms the value we have worked so hard to
create. Alcoa will acquire all outstanding shares of RTI in a
stock-for-stock transaction where RTI shareholders will
receive 2.8315 Alcoa shares for each RTI share,
representing a value of $41 per RTI share based on Alcoa’s
closing price on March 6, 2015.
This transaction is a great fit of resources, capabilities and
strategy
that
will
benefit
both
companies’
shareholders,
customers and employees worldwide.
The Announcement

We have completed due diligence, and our boards have approved
a definitive agreement.
This transaction will not be finalized immediately, nor can we
communicate all details immediately. We are working to
accomplish required regulatory filings.
We must set a date for our shareholders to vote to approve the
transaction.
We anticipate the transaction will close in late spring or early
summer.
You will receive regular updates regarding the status of the
transaction through its closing, beginning with a joint Alcoa/RTI
webcast at 11:00 a.m. this morning.
The Process

We will continue to do “business as usual”
and remain
focused on driving our strategic initiatives.
We must deliver the same quality, service and financial
performance that we outlined in our 2015 operating plan.
RTI’s bonus plan provides for a quarterly payment based on
achievement of our operating plan targets. These payments
should serve as a retention incentive and a motivator to
continue running our business to our usual standards of
excellence.
You will be provided with key messages to assist you in
communications with your team members, customers and
suppliers.

Alcoa has acquired us as an ongoing concern.
When the transaction closes, the name on the door will change, but we
will continue to do business.
With Alcoa, RTI will take its innovative technologies to the next level
and deliver even more value-added titanium and specialty metals
solutions.

Statement
under

Reform
Act
of
1995
This communication contains “forward-looking”
statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, known as the PSLRA.  These statements, as they relate to RTI and Alcoa, the management of either such company or
the
proposed
transaction
between
RTI
and
Alcoa,
involve
risks
and
uncertainties
that
may
cause
results
to
differ
materially
from
those
set
forth in the statements.  These statements are based on current plans, estimates and projections, and therefore, you are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on them.  No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed, and actual results may differ materially from those
projected.  RTI and Alcoa undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.  Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but
rather
are
based
on
current
expectations,
estimates,
assumptions
and
projections
about
the
business
and
future
financial
results,
and
other
legal,
regulatory
and
economic
developments.

“projects,”
“future,”
“intends,”
“may,”
“will,”
“should,”
“could,”
“estimates,”
“predicts,”
“potential,”
“continue,”
“guidance,”
and similar expressions
to identify these forward-looking statements that are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provisions of the PSLRA.  Actual results
could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including:  the risk
that the businesses will not be integrated successfully; the risk that the cost savings and any other synergies from the transaction may
not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; restrictions imposed by outstanding indebtedness;  worldwide and
regional economic, business, and political conditions; changes in customer demand and requirements; business cycles and other industry
conditions;
the
timing
of
new
services
or
facilities;
ability
to
compete
with
others
in
the
industries
in
which
RTI
and
Alcoa
operate;
effects
of
compliance
with
laws;
fluctuations
in
the
value
of
currencies
in
major
areas
where
operations
are
located;
matters
relating
to
operating facilities; effect and costs of claims (known or unknown) relating to litigation and environmental remediation;  ability to
develop and further enhance technology and proprietary know-how; ability to attract and retain key personnel; escalation in the cost of
providing employee health care; disruption from the transaction making it more difficult to maintain relationships with customers,
employees or suppliers; the failure to obtain governmental approvals of the transaction on the proposed terms and schedule, and any
conditions imposed on the combined company in connection with consummation of the merger; the failure to obtain approval of the
merger by the requisite vote of the shareholders of RTI and the failure to satisfy various other conditions to the closing of the merger
contemplated by the merger agreement; and the risks that are described from time to time in RTI’s and Alcoa’s respective reports filed
with the SEC, including RTI’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and Alcoa’s annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2014, in each case, as such reports may have been amended.  This document speaks only as of its date,
