Steel production and exports in China are capped by
o High cost of production
o Government successful efforts to restructure steel industry
• Banning construction/expansion of steel capacities
• Closure of small inefficient capacities (c.100 m tpa of capacities to be shut down in 2010-11)
• Further consolidation of industry
Steel demand in China still remains high

Global market environment: Europe Inventory low
o Lean inventory management to cap substantial inventory rebuilding
o ...current European stock level is well below historical average
Demand mixed
o Prices are about to increase driven by the restocking of inventories globally
o … however stockholders in Europe require more evidence of strong end-user demand
o Improved demand in Northern Europe driven by auto and capital goods producers
o Flat steel sales supported by manufacturing sector
o EU construction in 6M ‘10 decreased -6%
o EU industry in 6M ‘10 grew +17%
Supply challenged
o Low supply discipline may put pressure on prices
o Limited arbitrage for Asian material deliveries
o Steelmakers are yet to adapt to new raw materials pricing mechanisms

Key risks
o Growing prices to increase overall cash cost
Risks mitigated by
o Diversified supplier base
o Integration into coke operations
o Option to develop own coal deposit
o Diversified business model (EAF)
Russian coal market
o Russian market is lower priced vs seaborne
o Further expansion on stream
Future strategy
o Supplier base diversification
o Development of green-field projects to cover up to 70-90% needs
o Looking for opportunities of integration into efficient coal production
o PCI technology installation to reduce by 30% coke consumption per 1 tonne of steel
o Import high grade coking coal to improve coke quality
Coal supplies … risk mitigation
