Item 8.01. Other Events.

On April 28, 2016, Kaiser Aluminum Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has priced its previously announced offering of $375.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior notes due 2024 (the “Notes”), pursuant to an exemption under the Securities Act of 1933. This represents an increase of $50.0 million over the amount previously announced. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to redeem all outstanding amounts of the Company’s existing 8.250% senior notes due 2020, consisting of aggregate principal amount of $197.8 million and a redemption premium of $8.2 million, and for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, capital spending, acquisitions and repurchases of the Company’s common stock. The consummation of the offering of Notes is expected to be completed on May 12, 2016, subject to customary closing conditions. 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.
