(the “Ministry of Petroleum”). The gas supply agreement provides sufficient fuel to meet manufacturing process
requirements as well as fuel to the adjacent combined water and power plant being constructed by Saline Water
Conversion Corporation, which is owned by the government of Saudi Arabia and is responsible for desalinating sea
water and producing electricity for Saudi Arabia. The combined water and power plant will convert the three joint
venture companies’ gas into electricity and water at cost, which will be supplied to the refinery, smelter, and rolling
mill. During 2013, the $350 letter of credit that was previously provided to the Ministry of Petroleum by Ma’aden
(Alcoa was responsible for its pro rata share) under the gas allocation related to the completion of the refinery was
terminated upon the mining and refining company entering into construction contracts. A $60 letter of credit previously
provided to the Ministry of Petroleum by Ma’aden (Alcoa is responsible for its pro rata share) under the gas allocation
related to the completion of certain auxiliary rolling facilities was outstanding as of December 31, 2013.
The parties subject to the joint venture shareholders’ agreement may not sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, pledge,
or encumber any interests in the joint venture until certain milestones have been met as defined in both agreements.
Under the joint venture shareholders’ agreement, upon the occurrence of an unremedied event of default by Alcoa,
Ma’aden may purchase, or, upon the occurrence of an unremedied event of default by Ma’aden, Alcoa may sell, its
interest for consideration that varies depending on the time of the default.
