Item 8.01. Other Events.

On April 29, 2020, Kaiser Aluminum Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has priced an additional $50.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.500% senior notes due 2025 (the “Notes”), in a private transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. The consummation of the offering of the Notes is expected to be completed on May 1, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions. The Notes will be issued under the indenture pursuant to which Kaiser Aluminum previously issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.500% senior notes due 2025 (the “Initial Notes”), all of which remains outstanding. The Notes will be treated as the same class and series as, and otherwise identical to, the Initial Notes other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price. The Notes will be issued at an offering price of 101.000%, plus accrued interest from April 28, 2020 to the date of delivery.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, capital spending and acquisitions. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated by reference herein.

The information contained in this report shall not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to purchase, any Notes in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
