9 Investor Relations and SRI

10 Objective of Investor Relations  By implementing high standards of financial information disclosure and providing clear, regular, transparent and even-handed information to all its shareholders, ArcelorMittal aims to be the first choice for investors in the sector  ArcelorMittal has an active and broad communications policy: roadshows conference calls, plant visits, one-on-one meetings, and a website featuring management comments on quarterly, half-year and full-year results  Meeting the growing Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) / sustainable investment community follows the same model ArcelorMittal aims to be the first choice for investors in the sector

11 Growth of SRI  Origins of religiously-motivated funds and trade union pension funds avoiding sin stocks (e.g. weapons, tobacco) in the 1960s to divestment of companies operating in South Africa (1970s – 1990s) to emergence of specific green, ethical and sustainability funds  European SRI Market valued at €2.7 trillion at end of 2007* (17.5% of asset management industry in Europe)  Investment strategies include:  Negative screening: excluding securities based on environmental and/or social criteria  Shareholder activism and engagement: positively influencing corporate behaviour through management meetings and proxy voting  Sustainability funds: identifying companies that will bring returns from e.g. low carbon economy  Increasingly mainstream investors are asking “CSR” questions either directly or indirectly From ethical investment to a strategy to maximising financial return from sustainable companies * European Sustainable Investment Forum (Eurosif)

12 Managing SRI at ArcelorMittal

13 Managing SRI at ArcelorMittal  Various approaches and shareholders  Ethical investors / green funds  Rating agencies  Sustainability indices e.g. FTSE4Good  ArcelorMittal has reviewed all rating agencies, leading teams (buy-side and sell-side) and its own shareholder capital related to SRI:  To prioritise key rating agencies and top shareholders  Incorporate and evaluate SRI questionnaires and issue identification into our own CR management and data collection processes Prioritising SRI community for effective management

14 Key initiatives; Outcomes and Results

15 Formalising feedback Identifying priority and most relevant issues to ArcelorMittal

16 Engagement: A successful outcome Source: UN Principles for Responsible Investment Annual Report 2008

Feedback into our publications Fostering engagement through public reporting Integrating comments and topics into our CR Report and other relevant documents and publications  Quarterly earnings release now contains safety statistics and latest CR initiatives

18 Conclusion and Next Steps

19 Effective SRI management  SRI should follow similar model to all other investor relations  Prioritising analysts and agencies is crucial to effective management  SRI are an individual stakeholder group that can be utilised for more than just improved ratings  Formalising engagement tests our CR strategy, aids issue identification and improves our own disclosure  Next steps for ArcelorMittal to repeat this exercise with a new theme: managing CR through, and emerging from the economic crisis Transforming tomorrow
