REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8
PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
ITEM 3 INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.
The following documents and information previously filed with the SEC
by RTI International Metals, Inc. (the "Company") are incorporated herein by
reference and made a part hereof:
(a) The Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2001;
(b) The latest annual report on Form 11-K for the Company Employee
Savings and Investment Plan (the "Plan") (when filed);
(c) All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act since the end of the fiscal year covered by
the document referred to in (a) above; and
(d) The description of the Company's common stock which is
contained in the Company's registration statement on Form 8-A
(Registration No. 1-14437), dated August 21, 1998, including
any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such
description.
Any statement contained in a document incorporated by reference herein
shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this registration
statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other
subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by
reference herein modified or supersedes such statement. Any statement so
modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded,
to constitute a part of this registration statement.
ITEM 4 DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.
Not applicable.
ITEM 5 INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.
Not applicable.
ITEM 6 INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
The Registrant's Code of Regulations effectively provide that the
Registrant, to the full extent permitted by Section 1701.13 of the Ohio Revised
Code, as amended from time to time ("Section 1701.13"), shall indemnify all
directors and officers of the Company and may indemnify all employees,
representatives and other persons as permitted pursuant thereto.
Section 1701.13 of the Ohio Revised Code permits a corporation to
indemnify its officers, directors and employees (other than in certain cases
involving bad faith, negligence or misconduct) from and against any and all
claims and liabilities to which he or she may become subject by reason of his or
her position, or acts or commissions in such position, including reasonable
costs of defense and settlements (except in connection with shareholder
derivative suits, where indemnification is limited to the costs of defense).
Ohio law also permits corporations to provide broader indemnification than that
provided by statute.
RTI maintains insurance against liabilities under the Securities Act of
1933 (the "Securities Act") for the benefit of its officers and directors.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling RTI pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion
of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
ITEM 7 EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED
Not applicable.

ITEM 9 UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3)
of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the registration statement (or the
most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar
value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form
of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if,
in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no
more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering
price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table
in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
registration statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement.
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or
furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in
the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets
all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Form S-8
to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the
City of Niles, State of Ohio, on June 28, 2002.
