Explanation of Responses:

1. Represents shares of Olympic Steel, Inc. common stock, without par value ("Company common stock"), 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. (including restricted shares that vested in connection with the merger). At the effective time of the merger, each such share of Company common stock 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.

2. Each restricted share unit ("RSU") represents the contingent right to receive one share of Company common stock. 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) and were immediately settled in shares of Parent common stock in connection with the Reporting Person's separation from service, which occurred at the effective time of the merger.
