A new management gains program to reinforce cost leadership

36*Excludes price cost squeeze

Management gains breakdown (USD billion)*

Continued improvement in operating practices

Productivity gains and headcount reduction through voluntary retirement plans and natural attrition

Reduction in energy consumption through internal and external benchmarking and key investments

Significant yield improvement resulting from specific investment and best practice

Cost reduction due to subcontracting and purchasing improvements

Raw material cost reduction through investment in process optimisation

Main sources of gains

USD 4bn of management gains targeted over the next 5 years

The new steel horizon

9

World steel apparent demand and production from 1950 to 2007 – millions of tonnes

China and emerging economies are driving steel market growth

Developed economies represent only one third of the world steel market today versus half in 2000

World steel real demand increase between 2000 and 2007 – million of tonnes

*Developed world includes US, Canada, EU15, Japan and KoreaSource: IISI and ArcelorMittal

Breakdown of world steel market in 2007

Despite slowdown, world steel demand growth is expected to remain strong

Despite global economic slowdown, world steel market is expected to continue to grow by 3% to 5% over the next several years

*Developed world includes US, Canada, EU15, Japan and KoreaSource IISI, SBB and ArcelorMittal estimates

World capacity growth to slow down due to increasingly challenging expansions

As industry is operating at near full capacity and global supply remains constrained, steel market is expected to remain tight

Source IISI and ArcelorMittal

Steel capacity expansion limitations:• Natural resource scarcity (coking coal, iron ore, scrap,

energy…)• Steel equipment and engineering suppliers are

increasing lead times• Strict government measures for capacity control, credit

control, closures and export taxes in China• Environmental restrictions (CO2,,dust…) particularly in

Europe and Japan • Land availability, challenges related to population

resettlement and time-consuming administrative process in India

• Infrastructure and logistic bottleneck in CIS• Financial resources and credit availability

Apart from China, no major Greenfield has been built over the last 10 years and no new Greenfields are expected to start-up before 2010

Prices to remain stable as producers cut production

Facing temporary market weakness, rising raw material costs and losses, medium and small Chinese producers are accelerating production cuts beyond Olympic shutdown
