F1 Disposed of pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Merger Agreement"), dated as of October 28, 2025, by and among Olympic Steel, Inc. (the "Company"), Ryerson Holding Corporation ("Parent"), and Crimson MS Corp. At the effective time of the merger, each share of the Company's common stock, without par value ("Company common stock"), that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger was converted into the right to receive a number of shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Parent ("Parent common stock"), multiplied by 1.7105 (rounded down to the nearest whole share), plus a cash payment (rounded down to the nearest cent) in lieu of any fractional shares as determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
F2 Each restricted share unit ("RSU") represents the contingent right to receive one share of Company common stock.
F3 These RSUs are fully vested and will generally be settled upon the Reporting Person's separation from service. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, these RSUs were converted into RSUs with respect to Parent common stock by multiplying the number of shares of Company common stock underlying the award by 1.7105 (rounded down to the nearest whole share).
F4 These RSUs are fully vested. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, these RSUs were converted into RSUs with respect to Parent common stock by multiplying the number of shares of Company common stock underlying the award by 1.7105 (rounded down to the nearest whole share) and then cancelled in exchange for a cash payment equal to the number of shares of Parent common stock underlying the award, multiplied by the closing price per share of Parent common stock on February 13, 2026 (less applicable taxes), payable within 30 days of such date.
F5 These RSUs are fully vested and were contributed to and used to fund the Reporting Person's account balance in the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, these RSUs were cancelled and converted into a cash amount equal to the number of shares of Company common stock underlying the award, multiplied by 1.7105, and further multiplied by the closing price per share of Parent common stock on February 13, 2026. Such cash amount shall be credited to the Reporting Person's SERP account, and will otherwise remain subject to the payment timing requirements and other terms of the SERP.
