ArcelorMittal announces record date for rights offering

04 March 2016 - On February 5, 2016, ArcelorMittal announced a proposed capital raise by way of a rights offering where its existing shareholders are granted preferential rights to subscribe for ArcelorMittal ordinary shares. It expects to issue a number of new ordinary shares in the rights offering that will allow it to raise the euro equivalent of approximately U.S.$3 billion^[1].  An extraordinary general shareholders meeting has been called for March 10, 2016 to consider, among other things, the increase in ArcelorMittal’s authorized share capital necessary to permit the launch of the proposed rights offering. The launch of the rights offering is also subject to the approval of the European securities prospectus by the Luxembourg supervisory authority for the financial sector (Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier – CSSF) as well as market and other conditions.  

The record date for ArcelorMittal shares is expected to be on March 14, 2016 at the close of business on each applicable market where the shares are traded.  Each record holder of ArcelorMittal shares will be allocated one right per existing ArcelorMittal share held as of such record date. 

Further details on the terms of the rights offering and the procedures pursuant to which eligible holders can exercise their rights will be announced at the time of the commencement of the rights offering. 

For readers in the European Economic Area

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy or subscribe for, any securities of ArcelorMittal within the meaning of Luxembourg law and/or the laws of any other member state of the European Economic Area. This press release does not constitute a prospectus within the meaning of EC Directive 2003/71/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council dated 4 November 2003, as amended (the “Prospectus Directive”), which expression includes any relevant implementing measure in the member state concerned, and should not be the basis for any agreement or decision to invest. ArcelorMittal has not made any final decision whether to proceed with any offering

^[1] As the subscription price will be denominated in euros, the capital increase amount will correspond to the euro equivalent of U.S.$3 billion upon the rights offering launch.  The actual amount of the capital increase in U.S. dollars will depend on the euro-U.S. dollar exchange rate at closing.

Any decision to purchase, subscribe for or otherwise acquire any subscription rights or new shares of ArcelorMittal must be made only on the basis of the information in a securities prospectus (if published in due course by ArcelorMittal), which will then be available for download on the internet site of ArcelorMittal (www.arcelormittal.com). Copies of the prospectus will then also be readily available upon request and free of charge at 24-26, boulevard d’Avranches, L-1160 Luxembourg, Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg.

In each Relevant Member State this communication is only addressed to, and directed at, qualified investors in that Relevant Member State within the meaning of the Prospectus Directive.
