NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS

In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area ("EEA") which has

exemptions under the Prospectus Directive, if they have been implemented in that Relevant Member
State:

regulated financial institutions) or, if not so authorized or regulated, whose corporate purpose is
solely to invest in securities;

(c) to any legal entity which has two or more of (1) an average of at least 250 employees
during the last financial year; (2) a total balance sheet of more than 43,000,000 and (3) an annual

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

ArcelorMittal is organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg with its principal
executive offices and corporate seat in Luxembourg. The majority of ArcelorMittal's directors and
senior management are residents of jurisdictions outside the United States. The majority of
ArcelorMittal's assets and the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result,
investors may find it difficult to effect service of process within the United States upon ArcelorMittal
or these persons or to enforce outside the United States judgments obtained against ArcelorMittal or
these persons in U.S. courts, including actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the
U.S. federal securities laws. Likewise, it may also be difficult for an investor to enforce in U.S. courts
judgments obtained against ArcelorMittal or these persons in courts in jurisdictions outside the
United States, including actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal
securities laws. It may also be difficult for an investor to bring an original action in a Luxembourg
court predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against
ArcelorMittal's directors and senior management and non-U.S. experts named in this prospectus or the
documents incorporated by reference herein.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain forward-looking
statements based on estimates and assumptions. Forward-looking statements include, among other
things, statements concerning the business, future financial condition, results of operations and
prospects of ArcelorMittal, including its acquired 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

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 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, it is believed that the following factors, among others,
could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements:

benefits from the acquisition by Mittal Steel of Arcelor;

shareholder voting;

· ArcelorMittal's ability to operate within the limitations imposed by its financing arrangements;

·

ArcelorMittal's
ability to refinance existing debt and obtain new financing on acceptable terms
to finance its growth;

· mining risks;

· the risk that non-fulfillment or breach of transitional arrangements may result in the restitution
of aid granted to some of ArcelorMittal's subsidiaries;

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

· increased cost of wages and the risk of labor disputes;

· general economic conditions, whether globally, nationally or in the markets in which
ArcelorMittal conducts business;

· the risk of disruption or volatility in the economic, political or social environment in the
countries in which ArcelorMittal conducts business;

· fluctuations in currency exchange rates, commodity prices, energy prices and interest rates;

· the risk of disruptions to ArcelorMittal's operations;

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

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

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

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

· the risk of product liability claims adversely affecting ArcelorMittal's operations;

· international trade actions or regulations;

· the risk that changes in demand for and supply of steel products in China and other developing
economies may result in falling steel prices;

· the risk of significant supply shortages and increasing costs of raw materials, energy and
transportation;

· increased competition from substitute materials, such as aluminum; and

· legislative or regulatory changes, including those relating to protection of the environment and
health and safety, and those resulting from international agreements and treaties related to trade,
accession to the European Union ("EU") or otherwise.

Some of these factors are discussed in more detail in this prospectus, including under "Risk
Factors," and in the documents incorporated by reference herein.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Definitions and Terminology

Unless indicated otherwise, or the context otherwise requires, references herein to
"ArcelorMittal," "we," "us," "our" and "the Company" or similar terms are to ArcelorMittal, formerly
known as Mittal Steel Company N.V. ("Mittal Steel") or as Ispat International N.V., and its
subsidiaries (which include LNM Holdings N.V. and its subsidiaries and International Steel Group
Inc. and its subsidiaries).

All references herein to "Arcelor" refer to Arcelor, a société anonyme incorporated under
Luxembourg law, which was acquired by Mittal Steel on August 1, 2006, having its registered office
at 19, avenue de la Liberté, L-2930 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and, where the
context requires, its consolidated subsidiaries. All references herein to "Arcelor Brasil" refer to the
former Arcelor Brasil S.A. (the current ArcelorMittal Brasil S.A.), a majority-owned subsidiary of
Arcelor. All references herein to "Sicartsa" refer to the operations of ArcelorMittal las Truchas S.A. de
C.V. (formerly Siderurgia Lázaro Cárdenas las Truchas S.A. de C.V.) in Mexico, which was acquired
by the Company on April 20, 2007. All references herein to "ArcelorMittal Kryviy Rih" refer to the
operations of Kryvorizhstal in the Ukraine, which was acquired by the Company on November 25,
2005. "ISG" refers to International Steel Group Inc. and its subsidiaries as it existed prior to its
acquisition by Mittal Steel on April 15, 2005. Following the acquisition of ISG by Mittal Steel, ISG's
name was changed to "Mittal Steel USA ISG Inc.," the operations were merged with Ispat Inland on
December 31, 2005 and the name of the surviving entity was changed to Mittal Steel USA Inc. and
then to ArcelorMittal USA following Mittal Steel's acquisition of Arcelor.

Financial Information

The audited consolidated financial statements of ArcelorMittal (of which Mittal Steel is the
predecessor) and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the consolidated balance sheets as of
December 31, 2006 and 2007, and the consolidated statements of income, changes in equity and cash
flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007 are contained in our report on
Form 6-K dated September 22, 2008 and have been incorporated by reference in this prospectus. The
redefinition of the operating responsibilities of all members of the Group Management Board
announced on April 21, 2008 resulted in a change in the composition of the reportable segments.
ArcelorMittal has prepared the information required by Item 5 of Form 20-F for the three years ended
December 31, 2007 and the ArcelorMittal consolidated financial statements for the three years ended
December 31, 2007, retrospectively adjusted for the changes in the composition of the reportable
segments. ArcelorMittal furnished this information to the SEC in a report of foreign private issuer on
Form 6-K dated September 22, 2008. We refer to this report of foreign private issuer on Form 6-K as
the "Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K dated September 22, 2008", and to the consolidated
financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007 contained therein as the
"ArcelorMittal Consolidated Financial Statements." The unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements as of and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2008 have been incorporated
by reference in this prospectus. The ArcelorMittal consolidated financial statements were prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting
