In 2010, Other for other exit costs also included a reclassification of the following restructuring charges: $30 in asset
retirement and $14 in environmental obligations, as these liabilities are included in Alcoa’s separate reserves for
asset retirement obligations (see Note C) and environmental remediation (see Note N), respectively. In 2009, Other
for layoff costs also included a reduction of $26 for reserves related to the wire harness and electrical portion of the
EES business as Platinum Equity assumed these obligations (see Note F).
The remaining reserves are expected to be paid in cash during 2011, with the exception of approximately $60 to $65,
which is expected to be paid over the next several years for ongoing site remediation work, special termination benefit
payments, and lease termination costs.
