CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain forward-looking
statements based on estimates and assumptions. This prospectus supplement

S-ii
Table of Contents
contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements
include, among other things, statements concerning the business, future financial condition, results of operations and prospects of ArcelorMittal,
including its subsidiaries. These statements usually contain the words "believes", "plans", "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "estimates" or other
similar expressions. For each of these statements, you should be aware that forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and
uncertainties. Although it is believed that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, there is no assurance that
the actual results or developments anticipated will be realized or, even if realized, that they will have the expected effects on the business, financial
condition, results of operations or prospects of ArcelorMittal.
These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which the statements were made, and no obligation has been undertaken to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements made in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or elsewhere as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable laws and regulations. In addition to other factors and matters
contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, it is believed that the following factors,
among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements:


· a prolonged period of weak economic growth, either globally or in ArcelorMittal's key markets;


· the risk that excessive capacity in the steel industry globally and particularly in China may hamper the steel industry's recovery;


· the risk of protracted weakness in steel prices or of price volatility;


· any volatility or increases in the cost, or shortages in the supply, of raw materials, energy and transportation;


· increased competition in the steel industry;

· the risk that unfair practices in steel trade could negatively affect steel prices and reduce ArcelorMittal's profitability, or that national

trade restrictions could hamper ArcelorMittal's access to key export markets;


· increased competition from other materials, which could significantly reduce market prices and demand for steel products;


· legislative or regulatory changes, including those relating to protection of the environment and health and safety;

· the risk that ArcelorMittal's high level of indebtedness could make it difficult or expensive to refinance its maturing debt, incur new

debt and/or flexibly manage its business;


· risks relating to greenfield and brownfield projects that are part of ArcelorMittal's growth strategy;


· risks relating to ArcelorMittal's mining operations;


· failure to manage continued growth through acquisitions;


· Mr. Lakshmi N. Mittal's ability to exercise significant influence over the outcome of shareholder voting;

· any loss or diminution in the services of Mr. Lakshmi N. Mittal, ArcelorMittal's Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief

Executive Officer;

· the risk that the earnings and cash flows of ArcelorMittal's operating subsidiaries may not be sufficient to meet future funding needs at

the holding company level;

S-iii
Table of Contents
· the risk that changes in assumptions underlying the carrying value of certain assets, including as a result of adverse market conditions,

could result in impairment of tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill;

· the risk that significant capital expenditure and other commitments ArcelorMittal has made in connection with acquisitions may limit

its operational flexibility and add to its financing requirements;

· ArcelorMittal's ability to fund under-funded pension liabilities;


· the risk of labor disputes;

· economic policy, political, social and legal risks and uncertainties in certain countries in which ArcelorMittal operates or proposes to

operate;

· fluctuations in currency exchange rates, particularly the euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate, and the risk of impositions of exchange

controls in countries where ArcelorMittal operates;


· the risk of disruptions to ArcelorMittal's manufacturing operations;


· damage to ArcelorMittal's production facilities due to natural disasters;


· the risk that ArcelorMittal's insurance policies may provide inadequate coverage;


· the risk of product liability claims;


· the risk of potential liabilities from investigations, litigation and fines regarding antitrust matters;

· the risk that ArcelorMittal's governance and compliance processes may fail to prevent regulatory penalties or reputational harm, both at

operating subsidiaries and joint ventures;

· the risk of unfavorable changes to, or interpretations of, the tax laws and regulations in the countries in which ArcelorMittal operates

are; and


· the risk that ArcelorMittal may not be able fully to utilize its deferred tax assets.

RISK FACTORS
An investment in the notes offered using this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus involves a high degree of risk. You
should carefully consider the risks described below before making an investment decision. The Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any of these risks. The risks described below are those known to ArcelorMittal
and that it currently believes may materially affect it.
Risks Related to the Global Economy and the Steel Industry.
The sharp downturn in the global economy in 2008-2009 caused a sharp reduction in worldwide demand for steel, and the recovery
through 2010 has been slow and uncertain. If the global economy or ArcelorMittal's key selling markets endure a protracted period of
weak growth or fall back into recession, this would have a material adverse effect on the steel industry and ArcelorMittal.
ArcelorMittal's activities and results are substantially affected by international, national and regional economic conditions. Starting in

Prospectus Supplement filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2)
September 2008 and lasting through much of 2009, a steep downturn in the global economy, sparked by uncertainty in credit markets and
deteriorating consumer confidence, sharply reduced demand for steel products worldwide. The crisis has had, and to some extent continues to
have, a pronounced negative effect on ArcelorMittal's business and results of operations.
Although the global economy began to recover in the second half of 2009, the recovery has been slow and uncertain. See "Item 5--Operating
and Financial Review and Prospects--Overview--Economic Environment" of our 2010 Form 20-F. Another recession, an extended period of
below-trend growth in developed countries or a slowdown in emerging economies that are substantial consumers of steel (such as China, Brazil,
Russia and India, as well as emerging Asian markets, the Middle East and the Commonwealth of Independent States ("CIS") regions) would have a
material adverse effect on the steel industry. Renewed weakness in sectors of the economy that are substantial consumers of steel products, such as
the automotive industry and the construction industry, would also hurt ArcelorMittal. So far, the recovery from the economic crisis in the United
States and Europe, which accounted for 17% and 48% of ArcelorMittal's sales in 2010, has been feeble. An unsustainable or uneven recovery that
bypasses such key markets, or a renewed global downturn, would have an adverse effect on ArcelorMittal's results of operations and prospects.
Excess capacity and oversupply in the steel industry globally and particularly in China may hamper the steel industry's recovery.
In addition to economic conditions, the steel industry is affected by global production capacity and fluctuations in steel imports/exports and
tariffs. The steel industry has historically suffered from structural over-capacity. The industry is currently characterized by a substantial increase in
production capacity in the developing world, particularly in China, and also in India and other emerging markets. China is now the largest global
steel producer by a large margin, and the balance between its domestic production and consumption has been an important factor in global steel
prices in recent years. Chinese steel exports, or conditions favorable to them (excess steel capacity in China, an undervalued Chinese currency
and/or higher market prices for steel in markets outside of China) can have a significant impact on steel prices in other markets, including the U.S.
and Europe. Over the short to medium term ArcelorMittal remains exposed to the risk of steel production increases in China and other markets
outstripping increases in real demand, which may weigh on price recovery.
Protracted low steel prices would have a material adverse effect on the results of ArcelorMittal, as could price volatility.
Steel prices are volatile, reflecting the highly cyclical nature of the global steel industry. After rising steadily until mid-2008, global steel
prices fell sharply during the financial crisis of late 2008. Prices remained depressed

for nearly a year, and although a gradual recovery commenced in the second half of 2009, as of December 31, 2010 prices were still generally
below their recent peaks (depending on the region). See "Item 5--Operating and Financial Review and Prospects--Overview--Key Factors
Affecting Results of Operations--Steel Prices" of our 2010 Form 20-F. Low steel prices have an adverse effect on steel producers due to lower
revenues, margins and possible write-downs of finished steel products and raw material inventories (as experienced by ArcelorMittal in late 2008
and early 2009).
Significant price decreases during periods of economic weakness have historically not been balanced by commensurate price increases during
periods of economic recovery. This has once again been the case during the recent cycle. Although prices have stabilized to a certain degree, the
timing and extent of the recovery and any potential return to pre-crisis price levels remains uncertain. A sustained price recovery will likely require
a broad economic recovery in order to underpin an increase in real demand for steel products by end users.
In addition to macroeconomic trends, steel prices are sensitive to developments in particular industries, such as the automotive, construction,
appliance, machinery, equipment, infrastructure and transportation, which are the main markets for ArcelorMittal's products. A resumed downturn
in steel prices would materially and adversely affect ArcelorMittal's revenues and profitability, including because of potential further write-downs
of steel products and raw materials inventories.
Volatility in the supply and prices of raw materials, energy and transportation, and mismatches with steel price trends, could adversely
affect ArcelorMittal's profitability.
Steel production requires substantial amounts of raw materials and energy, including iron ore, coking coal and coke, scrap, electricity and
natural gas, which are subject to significant price volatility. In late 2008, the prices of most commodities used in the steel-making process collapsed
as a result of the global economic crisis, before recovering gradually by the end of 2010 to levels near those prevailing before the crisis, albeit with
significant increased volatility, due mainly to strong demand from customers in China and other emerging markets and the evolution of raw
materials pricing from annual, contract-based prices to quarterly prices linked to spot market references. See "Item 5--Operating and Financial
Review and Prospects--Overview--Key Factors Affecting Results of Operations--Raw Materials" of our 2010 Form 20-F.
The availability and prices of raw materials may be negatively affected by, among other factors: new laws or regulations; suppliers'
allocations to other purchasers; business continuity of suppliers; interruptions in production by suppliers (as occurred, for example, with respect to
