On April 30, 2026, the stockholders of Ryerson Holding Corporation ("Ryerson" or "Registrant") approved the Ryerson Holding Corporation Third Amended and Restated 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which, among other things, (i) increased the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), reserved for issuance under the Plan by 1,500,000 shares, (ii) increased the number of shares of Common Stock available for grant pursuant to incentive stock options by an equivalent amount, and (iii) extended the expiration date of the Plan to April 29, 2036, the day immediately before the tenth (10<sup>th</sup>) anniversary of the date on which the Board of Directors of the Registrant (the "Board") approved the Plan.

This Registration Statement on Form S-8 registers 1,800,000 additional shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan, which consists of (i) 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock that were reserved and available for delivery with respect to awards under the Plan pursuant to the amendment and restatement of the Plan following stockholder approval of the Third Amended and Restated 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan, and (ii) 300,000 shares of Common Stock that may become available again for delivery with respect to awards under the Plan pursuant to the share counting, share recycling, and other terms and conditions of the Plan.

**Item 4.** **DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES** <br>

Not applicable.

**Item 5.** **INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL** <br>

Not applicable.

**Item 6.** **INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS** <br>

The Registrant's amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation") limits its directors' and officers' liability to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware corporate law. Specifically, the Registrant's directors and officers are not liable to the Registrant or the Registrant's stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty by a director or officer, except for liability: (i) for any breach of the director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or the Registrant's stockholders; (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; (iv) for any transaction from which a director or officer derives an improper personal benefit; or (v) of an officer in any action by or in the right of the Registrant.

If the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors or officers, then the liability of the Registrant's directors and officers shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as so amended.

The provision regarding indemnification of the Registrant's directors and officers in the Certificate of Incorporation will generally not limit liability under state or federal securities laws.

Delaware law and the Certificate of Incorporation provide that the Registrant will, in certain situations, indemnify any person made or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding by reason of that person's former or present official capacity with the Registrant against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses including reasonable attorney's fees. Any person is also entitled, subject to certain limitations, to payment or reimbursement of reasonable expenses in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding. In addition, certain indemnification agreements to which the Registrant is a party provide for the indemnification of the Registrant's employees who are party thereto.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors or officers for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit Registrant or the Registrant's stockholders. In addition, your investment may be adversely affected to the extent that, in a class action or direct suit, Registrant pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

**Item 7.** **EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED** <br>

Not applicable.

**Item 8.** **EXHIBITS** <br>

The Exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Index to Exhibits and are incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 9.** **UNDERTAKINGS** <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

*provided, however, that* paragraphs (1)(a)(i) and (1)(a)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

Page **5** of **8**

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial *bona fide* offering thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Ryerson Holding Corporation

227 W. Monroe St. 27th Floor

Chicago, Illinois 60606

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Ryerson Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), with respect to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about the date hereof. The Registration Statement relates to the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), by the Company of 1,800,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), which may be issued under the Company's Third Amended and Restated 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Plan").

We have examined, among other things, originals and/or copies (certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction) of such documents, papers, statutes and authorities as we have deemed necessary to form a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the conformity to original documents of all copies submitted to us. As to various questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied without independent check or verification upon statements and certificates of officers and representatives of the Company.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that, when the Registration Statement has become effective under the Act, the Common Stock to be issued by the Company under the Plan, when duly issued and delivered pursuant to the terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

This opinion is limited to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and we express no opinion with respect to the laws of any other jurisdiction or any other laws of the State of Delaware. This opinion speaks only as of the date hereof and is limited to present statutes, regulations and administrative and judicial interpretations. We undertake no responsibility to update or supplement this opinion after the date hereof.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act and any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
