DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the following Registration Statements of Ryerson Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed on Form S-8 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”)¹:

1. Registration Statement 33-59783 registering 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Ryerson 1995 Incentive Stock Plan (f/k/a the Inland 1995 Incentive Stock Plan).

2. Registration Statement 333-06977 registering 100,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Ryerson Directors’ Compensation Plan (f/k/a the Ryerson Tull Directors’ Compensation Plan).

3. Registration Statement 333-06989 registering 2,300,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Ryerson 1996 Incentive Stock Plan (f/k/a the Ryerson Tull 1996 Incentive Stock Plan).

4. Registration Statement 333-62382 registering 100,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Ryerson Directors’ Compensation Plan (f/k/a the Ryerson Tull Directors’ Compensation Plan).

5. Registration Statement 333-78429 (as amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 thereto) registering 1,300,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Ryerson 1999 Incentive Stock Plan (f/k/a the Ryerson Tull 1999 Incentive Stock Plan) and the Ryerson Directors’ Compensation Plan (f/k/a the Ryerson Tull Directors’ 1999 Stock Option Plan).

6. Registration Statement 333-88476 registering 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Ryerson 2002 Incentive Stock Plan (f/k/a the Ryerson Tull 2002 Incentive Stock Plan).

On October 19, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), the Company consummated the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of July 24, 2007, by and among Rhombus Holding Corporation (“Parent”), Rhombus Merger Corporation (“Sub”) and the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation. In accordance with the Merger Agreement, on the Effective Date, each outstanding share of Common Stock and Series A $2.40 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (other than treasury shares and shares held by shareholders who properly exercised appraisal rights under Delaware law) was automatically converted into the right to receive $34.50 in cash. As a result of such transactions, the Company is a privately-held, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

As a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company has terminated all offerings of the Company’s securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. Accordingly, pursuant to the undertaking contained in the Registration Statements 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, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statements to deregister all the shares of the Company’s Common Stock registered and reserved for issuance under such Registration Statements which remained unissued as of the Effective Date.
