$500,000,000

Alcoa Inc.
5.25% Convertible Notes due 2014
We are offering $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 5.25% Convertible Notes due 2014 (the "notes").
The notes will bear interest at a rate of 5.25% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and
September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2009 and will mature on March 15, 2014, unless earlier
repurchased or converted.
Holders may convert their notes at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day
immediately preceding the maturity date. Holders will not receive any cash payment or additional shares
representing accrued and unpaid interest upon conversion of a note, except in limited circumstances. Instead,
interest will be deemed paid by the delivery of shares of common stock to holders upon conversion. We will
deliver cash in lieu of any fractional shares of common stock issuable upon conversion.
The initial conversion rate will be 155.4908 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes,
equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $6.43 per share of common stock. The conversion rate will be
subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for accrued interest. In addition, following certain
corporate transactions that occur prior to the maturity date, we will increase the conversion rate for a holder who
elects to convert its notes in connection with such a corporate transaction in certain circumstances.
We may not redeem the notes at our option prior to maturity. If we undergo a fundamental change, as described in
this prospectus supplement, holders may require us to repurchase the notes in whole or in part for cash at a price
equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but
excluding, the repurchase date.
The notes will rank equally with all our existing and future unsecured senior debt and senior to all our future
subordinated debt. The notes are new securities, and there is currently no established market for the notes.
Accordingly, we cannot assure you as to the development or liquidity of any market for the notes. We do not
intend to apply for a listing of the notes on any securities exchange.
Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "AA." The last reported sale price
of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on March 18, 2009 was $5.48 per share.
Concurrently with this offering of notes, under a separate prospectus supplement, we are offering
150,000,000 shares of our common stock in an underwritten public offering (or 172,500,000 shares if the
underwriters exercise their over-allotment option with respect to that offering in full). Neither the completion of
this offering nor of the common stock offering is contingent on the completion of the other.

Final Prospectus Supplement
Investing in the notes or our common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes involves significant risks. See
"Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and all subsequent
filings under Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as well as the
additional risk factors contained in this prospectus supplement beginning on page S-13.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or
disapproved of these securities or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus supplement or
the accompanying prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

allotments, if any.
We expect that delivery of the notes will be made to investors in book-entry form through The Depository Trust
Company and its participants, including Clearstream and the Euroclear system, on or about March 24, 2009.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
This document is in two parts. The first part is this prospectus supplement, which describes certain matters relating

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus contain or incorporate by reference "forward-
looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These statements can be identified by the use of predictive, future-
tense or forward-looking terminology, such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "forecasts,"
"intends," "may," "projects," "should," "will" or other similar words. All statements that reflect Alcoa's
expectations, assumptions or projections about the future other than statements of historical fact are forward-
looking statements, including, without limitation, forecasts concerning aluminum industry growth or other trend
projections, anticipated financial results or operating performance, and statements regarding Alcoa's strategies,
objectives, goals, targets, outlook, and business and financial prospects. Forward-looking statements are subject to
risks, contingencies and uncertainties and are not guarantees of future performance. Actual results, performance or
outcomes may differ materially from those expressed in or implied by those forward-looking statements. Alcoa
disclaims any intention or obligation (other than as required by law) to update or revise any forward-looking
statements.
The following are some of the important factors that could cause Alcoa's actual results to differ materially from
those projected in any forward-looking statements:

· Uncertainties regarding the duration or severity of the current global economic downturn and disruptions

in the financial markets, and their impact on Alcoa;

· Material adverse changes in aluminum industry conditions generally, including global supply and

demand conditions for aluminum, alumina and aluminum products;

· Fluctuations in commodity prices, especially the price of aluminum on the London Metal Exchange,

including sustained declines or further deterioration in aluminum prices;

· Changes, including further deterioration, in the key markets served by Alcoa, including the commercial

transportation, automobile, aerospace, building and construction, packaging, oil and gas, defense and
industrial markets;

· Alcoa's inability to achieve the level of cost reductions, cash generation or conservation, return on capital
improvement, improvement in profitablity and margins, or strengthening of operations anticipated by

management in connection with its restructuring, portfolio streamlining and liquidity strengthening
activities;

· Significant increases in power or energy costs, including electricity, natural gas and fuel oil, or

interruption or unavailability of energy supplies for Alcoa's operations;

· Significant increases in the costs of other raw materials, including carbon products, caustic soda and

other key inputs;

· Further downgrades in Alcoa's credit ratings, material increases in Alcoa's cost of borrowing, an

inability to access the credit or capital markets, or the failure of financial institutions to fulfill their
commitments to Alcoa under committed credit facilities;

Final Prospectus Supplement
· Declines in the rate used to discount future estimated liabilities and expenses for pensions and other post-

retirement benefits or in the rate of return on plan assets, or changes in employee workforce assumptions
used for such estimates;

· Political, economic and regulatory risks in the countries in which Alcoa operates or sells products,

including fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates;

· Outcomes of significant legal proceedings or investigations, or changes in laws and regulations,

including those affecting environmental, health or safety compliance;


· Uncertainties regarding the impact of climate change, climate change regulations or greenhouse effects;


· Changes in relationships with, or in the financial or business condition of, customers and suppliers;

and products; and

concerning factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements
include those discussed under "Risk Factors" beginning on Page S-13 of this prospectus supplement, in "Forward-
Looking Statements" on page 6 of the accompanying prospectus, and in our periodic reports referred to in "Where
