 Dear Jim: 
  
 This letter will confirm that the phrase “engaged in” was inadvertently omitted from (iv) in the Definition of “Other than Cause” in the November 22,
2004 letter that I sent to you and that (iv) is to be interpreted as if the phrase is included. 
  

	
	Sincerely yours,

 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
  
 THIS AGREEMENT, made as of this
                     day of
                    ,
                    , by and between Mellon Financial Corporation (the “Corporation”), having its principal place of business in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,

 [NAME], a non-employee director (the “Optionee”) of the
Corporation 
  
 WITNESSETH THAT: 
  
 WHEREAS, on the date hereof the Optionee is a member of the Board of
Directors of the Corporation but is not an employee of the Corporation; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the Corporation has adopted the Stock Option Plan for Outside Directors (2001) (the “Plan”) under which the Corporation grants to Outside Directors options to purchase common stock, par value $.50
per share, of the Corporation (the “Common Stock”); 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements herein contained and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto hereby agree with each other as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1: The Plan and This Agreement 
  
 1.1 The purpose of this Agreement is to document a specific option that has been granted automatically under the Plan and is
subject in all respects to the terms of the Plan. The terms of the Plan are hereby incorporated into, and made a part of, this agreement. Nothing herein should be construed as an exercise of discretion by any person or persons in connection with the
granting of this option. If any provision of this agreement is inconsistent with any provision in the Plan, the provision in the Plan shall control. All capitalized terms utilized herein are defined as set forth in the Plan, unless otherwise
indicated. 
  
 SECTION 2: Stock Option 
  
 2.1 The stock option granted to the Optionee as of the date hereof pursuant
to the Plan shall have the following terms: 
  
 A. Shares subject to option: [NUMBER OF SHARES] shares of Common Stock. 
  
 B. Period during which option may be exercised, in whole or in part: from [ONE YEAR AFTER THIRD BUSINESS DAY FOLLOWING CORPORATION’S
ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS FOR THE GRANT YEAR] to [TEN YEARS AFTER THIRD BUSINESS DAY FOLLOWING CORPORATION’S ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS FOR THE GRANT YEAR, LESS ONE DAY] inclusive, subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 4
below. 

 C. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, this option shall become fully exercisable
immediately and automatically upon the occurrence of a Change in Control Event, as defined in the Plan, and shall remain exercisable for the term provided for under Section 2.1.B above. 
  
 D. Exercise price: [$            ] per
share. 
  
 SECTION 3: Exercise and Withholding 

 
 3.1 This option shall be exercised by the Optionee by delivering to the
Corporation (i) a written notification specifying the number of shares that the Optionee then desires to purchase and the address to which share certificates should be delivered, (ii) a check payable to the order of the Corporation and/or shares of
Common Stock equal in value to the option price of such shares, and (iii) a stock power executed in blank for any shares of Common Stock delivered pursuant to clause (ii) hereof. Shares of Common Stock surrendered in exercise of this option shall be
valued at their Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) as of the date of exercise for purposes of meeting the exercise price. 
  
 3.2 In each case where the Optionee exercises this option in whole or in part, the Corporation will notify the Optionee of the amount of withholding tax,
if any, required under federal and, where applicable, state and local law, and the Optionee shall, immediately upon the receipt of such notice, remit the required amount to the Corporation. 
  
 3.3 As soon as practicable after each exercise of this option and compliance
by the Optionee with all applicable conditions, the Corporation will mail or cause to be mailed to the Optionee at the address specified in the written notification delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof certificates registered in the name of the
Optionee, or such other name as directed by the Optionee, for the number of shares of Common Stock that the Optionee is entitled to receive upon such exercise. 
  

SECTION 4: Forfeiture 
  
 4.1 Subject to Section 2.1.C above, if for any reason other than the Optionee’s death, disability or completion of the Service Year, the Optionee
ceases to serve as a director or member of the Advisory Board of the Corporation before this option becomes exercisable on [ONE YEAR AFTER THIRD BUSINESS DAY FOLLOWING THE CORPORATION’S ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS FOR THE GRANT YEAR], this
option shall be forfeited and terminated immediately upon such termination of service. Once this option has become exercisable, it shall not be subject to forfeiture because of termination of service and shall remain exercisable until [TEN YEARS
AFTER THIRD BUSINESS DAY FOLLOWING THE CORPORATION’S ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS FOR THE GRANT YEAR, LESS ONE DAY], regardless of whether the Optionee is a director or member of the Advisory Board of the Corporation at the time of exercise.

  
 SECTION 5: Miscellaneous 
  
 5.1 Whenever the word “Optionee” is used in any provision of this
Agreement under circumstances where the provision should logically be construed to apply to the executors, the administrators or the person or persons to whom this option may be transferred as permitted herein, the word “Optionee” shall be
deemed to include such person or persons. 
  

 - 2 - 

 5.2 This option may be transferred (i) by the Optionee upon his or her death or (ii) as directed by the
Optionee during his or her lifetime by gift to members of his or her immediate family or to an entity for the benefit of the Optionee and/or members of his or her immediate family or (iii) as directed by the Optionee during his or her lifetime as
otherwise approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation from time to time. For purposes of the preceding sentence, members of the Optionee’s immediate family and entities for the benefit of the Optionee and/or members of his or her
immediate family shall mean any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive
relationships, a trust in which these persons have the exclusive beneficial interest and any other entity in which these persons own and retain 100% of the beneficial interest. All transfers shall be made in accordance with procedures adopted by the
Director of the Human Resources Department of Mellon Bank, N.A., which may be changed from time to time. No other assignment or transfer of this option, or of the rights represented thereby, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or
otherwise shall be permitted, but immediately upon any such assignment or transfer this option shall terminate and become of no further effect. This option shall be exercisable only by the Optionee or by an immediate family member or entity or other
person to which this section permits transfer. The Corporation shall have received an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local or other withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate for the shares issuable upon
exercise of this option. 
  
 5.3 The parties hereto agree that the
option granted hereby is not, and should not be construed to be, an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 
  
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

	 	 	 	  	                          Restricted Stock Granted:	 	 	  	 	 	 
	 	 	 	  	  
                           Date of This Grant:
	 	 	  	 	  	 	 	 
	 	 	  
 By my acceptance, I agree that the

  United States Steel Corporation
  
	  	 	 	 Accepted as of the above date:

	 	 	 	  	                        Authorized Officer	  	 	 	 	  	                        Signature of Optionee	 	 
	 	 	Terms and Conditions	 	 
	 	 	  
 1.  The
Corporation shall issue in the Grantee’s name, for no cash consideration, a stock certificate for the number of shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Corporation set forth in this Restricted Stock Grant. The certificate shall
be held in custody by the Corporation. If and when the restrictions applicable to all or any portion of the Shares are terminated (the Shares are “vested”), a certificate, free of all restrictions, shall be issued in the Grantee’s
name (or, in the event of the Grantee’s death prior to such termination or such issuance, to the Grantee’s estate) for the number of vested Shares. The Grantee shall not be entitled to delivery of a certificate for any portion of the
Shares until such portion of Shares have vested. During the period prior to vesting or forfeiture of all or any portion of the Shares, the Grantee shall be entitled to vote the Shares and shall receive dividends paid on the Shares.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 2.  The
Grantee shall endorse in blank and return to the Corporation a stock power for the Restricted Stock certificate.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 3.  The
restriction period with regard to the Shares shall commence on the date the Shares are granted. The Grantee shall not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber or dispose of any portion of the Shares, and any attempt to sell, transfer,
assign, pledge or encumber any portion of the Shares prior to termination of restrictions shall have no effect.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 4.  A portion
of the Shares may be vested, based on such criteria as shall be determined by the Compensation and Organization Committee, (the “Committee”) following each Performance Period for which the Grantee remains as an Employee. The Committee
shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to terminate the restriction period with respect to some or all of the Shares, but not prior to the expiration of one year from the date of grant. In the case of a change in control of the
Corporation (as defined in the Paragraph 11. below), all restrictions shall automatically terminate.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 5.  Unless
otherwise determined by the Stock Plan Officer, all Shares which have not vested following vesting determinations for the Performance Period ending December 31, 2004 or the final Performance Period during which the Grantee remains as an employee
(for Grantees who earlier retire or die), whichever first occurs, shall be forfeited. The Committee may or may not make favorable vesting determinations with respect to restricted stock in any year. Unless otherwise determined by the Stock Plan
Officer, all unvested Shares shall be forfeited immediately if a Grantee’s employment is terminated for any cause other than death or retirement. The Stock Plan Officer may cause the immediate forfeiture of unvested shares after a Grantee
retires before the age of 65 or after a Grantee retires at any age if the Stock Plan Officer deems such forfeiture to be in the best interests of the Corporation. Any and all forfeitures of Shares shall be evidenced by written notice to the
participant. Upon the forfeiture of any Shares, such forfeited Shares shall be transferred to the Corporation without further action by the Grantee.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 6.  The
Grantee agrees to continue as an employee of an employing company for one year from the date of the Grant, subject to the employing company’s right to terminate the Grantee’s employment at any time, performing such duties consistent with
his capabilities and receiving his present compensation or such adjusted compensation as the employing company shall from time to time reasonably determine. If the terms of the Grantee’s employment are changed in a manner materially adverse to
the Grantee during such period, the Grantee shall be relieved of any further obligation to remain employed.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 7.  In the
event there is a change in the common stock of the Corporation through the declaration of stock dividends or through recapitalization resulting in stock split-ups or combinations or exchanges of shares or otherwise, the number of the Shares
available pursuant to the Grant shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee. The Grantee shall be notified of such adjustment and such adjustment shall be binding upon the Corporation and the Grantee.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 8.  This
Grant and the issuance, vesting and delivery of Shares are subject to the provisions of the 2002 Stock Plan, as it may be amended from time to time, and any rules and regulations which may be adopted and/or amended thereunder by the Committee,
provided that no amendment may, without the consent of the Grantee, adversely affect the rights of the Grantee under this Grant.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 9.  The
obligations of the Corporation and the rights of the Grantee are subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations including, without limitation, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and any other applicable laws.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 10.  The
Grant shall not be effective unless it is accepted by the Grantee and notice of such acceptance is received by the Stock Plan Officer.
	 	 
	 	 	  
 11.  For purposes of this grant, a “change in control of the Corporation” shall mean a change in control of a nature that would be required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A
of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act, whether or not the Corporation is then subject to such reporting requirement; provided, that, without limitation, such a change of control shall be deemed to have occurred if (A) any person (as
defined in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) (a “Person”) is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) directly or indirectly, of securities of the Corporation (not including
in the securities beneficially owned by such person any such securities acquired directly from the Corporation or its affiliates) representing twenty percent (20%) or more of the combined voting power of the Corporation’s then outstanding
voting securities; provided, however, that for purposes of this grant, the term “Person” shall not include (i) the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan
of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities, or (iv) a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Corporation in
substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Corporation; and provided further, however, that for purposes of this clause (A), there shall be excluded any person who becomes such a beneficial owner in connection with an
Excluded Transaction (as defined in clause (C) below); or (B) the following individuals cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the number of directors then serving: individuals who, on the date hereof, constitute the Board and any new
director (other than a director whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest including but not limited to a consent solicitation, relating to the election of directors of the Corporation) whose
appointment or election by the Board or nomination for election by the Corporation’s stockholders was approved or recommended by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors on the date
hereof or whose appointment, election or nomination for election was previously so approved; or (C) there is consummated a merger or consolidation of the Corporation or any direct or indirect subsidiary thereof with any other corporation, other than
a merger of consolidation (an “Excluded Transaction”) which would result in the voting securities of the Corporation outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or being converted into
voting securities of the surviving corporation or any parent thereof) at least 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the entity surviving the merger or consolidation, (or the parent of such surviving entity) immediately after
such merger or consolidation, or the stockholders of the Corporation approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Corporation, or there is consummated the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s
assets.
