3. JFE Steel’s Technological Strengths

11

Increasing Needs for High-end Steel The demand for quality will continue to rise: • More safety • More comfort • More cost reduction • More energy efficiency • More advanced (frontier) energy Customers will increasingly demand high-end steel for sophisticated quality needs, sometimes even seemingly contradictory needs (ex., high strength and high formability) .

12

Asia’s High-end Steel Market Growth Additional demand 33 million tons by 2020 Additional demand by 2020: 33 million tons Shares: Automobiles 13 million tons, petroleum gas 10 m/t, electrical appliances 7 m/t, and shipbuilding 3 m/t (million tons) 120 100

Tensile strength: TS (MPa)

Strength

Our studies show that JFE product’s high formability is superior to Competitors’ products at all strength levels. 15

JFE Automotive Steel Sheet is Used Worldwide ※

■JFE Steel’s steel sheet technology is used in 12% of all automobiles produced worldwide. - Among Japanese autos, more than 25% worldwide and 35% in Asia-Oceania region. ※JFE Steel’s steel sheet consists of that shipped from JFE and JFE-licensed alliance partners overseas.

■Automakers rate JFE Steel highly for   - Advanced technologies  - Sophisticated business capabilities   ・ Early vendor involvement   ・ Dependable deliveries     ・ Skilled sales force ■Our advantages will increase with the rise of new demand for hybrid automobiles and electric-motor automobiles which need high-end electrical steel sheets for their motors. 16
