As previously disclosed, on December 18, 2023, United States Steel Corporation (the "<u>Company</u>") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (such agreement, as it may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the "<u>Merger Agreement</u>") by and among the Company, Nippon Steel North America, Inc., a New York corporation ("<u>Parent</u>"), 2023 Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("<u>Merger Sub</u>"), and solely as provided in Section 9.13 therein, Nippon Steel Corporation, a Japanese corporation ("<u>NSC</u>"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions described therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "<u>Transaction</u>"). Also as previously disclosed, on January 3, 2025, President Biden issued an order prohibiting the Transaction (the "<u>Order</u>"), and on January 6, 2025, the Company and NSC announced that they jointly filed a lawsuit in the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit challenging the violation by President Biden and the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States ("<u>CFIUS</u>") of the constitutional due process and statutory rights of the Company, NSC and Parent; CFIUS's failure to review the Transaction on national security grounds; and the basis for the Order (the "<u>CFIUS Litigation</u>"). Also as previously disclosed, on April 6, 2025, President Trump issued a Presidential Memorandum directing CFIUS to conduct a review of the Transaction to assist President Trump in determining whether further action on such matter may be appropriate, with the CFIUS review to be conducted de novo, confidentially, and consistent with the procedures set forth for national security reviews under Section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950 (the "<u>Presidential Memorandum</u>"). Also as previously disclosed, on April 7, 2025, and in light of the Presidential Memorandum, the CFIUS Litigation was placed in abeyance for sixty days from the date of the Presidential Memorandum to June 5, 2025, to allow CFIUS to complete its de novo review and President Trump with time to act on any recommendation from CFIUS.

Pursuant to the Presidential Memorandum, CFIUS submitted a recommendation with respect to the Transaction to President Trump on May 21, 2025. Since that time, the Company, NSC and the United States government have continued to work to reach a resolution that would obviate the need for the CFIUS Litigation.

On June 5, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a motion to further extend the CFIUS Litigation abeyance until June 13, 2025, in light of the ongoing discussions between the Company, NSC and the United States government. The Company and NSC consented to that motion, which remains subject to approval by the court.

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information contained in Item 7.01 and attached as Exhibit 99.1 is being furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "<u>Exchange Act</u>"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information and exhibit be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

**CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains information regarding the Company and NSC that may constitute "forward-looking statements," as that term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws, that are subject to risks and uncertainties. We intend the forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements in those sections. Generally, we have identified such forward-looking statements by using the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "project," "target," "forecast," "aim," "should," "plan," "goal," "future," "will," "may" and similar expressions or by using future dates in connection with any discussion of, among other things, statements expressing general views about trends, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, potential changes in the global economic environment, anticipated capital expenditures, the construction or operation of new or existing facilities or capabilities and the costs associated with such matters, as well as statements regarding the proposed transaction, including the timing of the completion of the transaction. However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts, but instead represent only the Company's beliefs regarding future goals, plans and expectations about our prospects for the future and other events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside of the Company's or NSC's control and may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated events indicated in these forward-looking statements. Management of the Company or NSC, as applicable, believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the time made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. In addition, forward looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's or NSC's historical experience and our present expectations or projections. Risks and uncertainties include without limitation: the ability of the parties to consummate the proposed transaction, on a timely basis or at all; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the definitive agreement and plan of merger relating to the proposed transaction (the "Merger Agreement"); risks arising from transaction-related litigation, either brought by or against the parties; the risk that the parties to the Merger Agreement may not be able to satisfy the conditions to the proposed transaction in a timely manner or at all; risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to the proposed transaction and related litigation; certain restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact the Company's ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the market price of the Company's common stock or NSC's common stock or American Depositary Receipts; the risk of any unexpected costs or expenses resulting from the proposed transaction; the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of the Company or NSC to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, employees, stockholders and other business relationships and on its operating results and business generally; and the risk the pending proposed transaction could distract management of the Company. The Company directs readers to its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and the other documents it files with the SEC for other risks associated with the Company's future performance. These documents contain and identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.
