Regulatory News:
ArcelorMittal announces today a re-opening of its share buy-back
program for up to 6% of its share capital, within the scope of the
authorisation given by the annual general meeting of shareholders
held on 11 May 2010.
The program will be used to partially or totally hedge
ArcelorMittal’s current and future obligations under securities
giving access to its share capital and share-based employee
incentive plans.
This program enables ArcelorMittal to acquire or sell its own
shares in accordance with applicable laws and regulations,
including by selling treasury shares it currently holds, entering
into off-market, over-the-counter transactions and through call
options and other derivative financial instruments.
To initiate and execute this program, ArcelorMittal will, among
other things, enter into financial agreements with one or more
credit institutions.
We draw attention to the fact that the annual general meeting of
shareholders held on 11 May 2010 has authorized share buy-backs
below the following maximum price: the purchase price per share
shall not represent more than 125% of the price on the New York
Stock Exchange, Euronext Amsterdam by NYSE Euronext, Euronext
Brussels by NYSE Euronext, Euronext Paris by NYSE Euronext, the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange or the stock exchanges of Barcelona,
Bilbao, Madrid and Valencia, depending on the market on which the
transactions are made, and no less than the par value of the share
at the time of repurchase. For off market transactions, the maximum
purchase price is 125% of the price on Euronext Paris by NYSE
Euronext.
The execution of this share buy-back is expected to start on
November 29, 2010 at the soonest and will end on December 1, 2011
at the latest.
