Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (“EBITDA”)
adjusted for sales discounts and the deduction of income attributable to non-controlling interests in our Indiana
Harbor cokemaking operations.  EBITDA reflects sales discounts included as a reduction in sales and other
operating revenue. The sales discounts represent the sharing with our customers of a portion of nonconventional
fuels tax credits, which reduce our income tax expense. However, we believe that our Adjusted EBITDA would be
inappropriately penalized if these discounts were treated as a reduction of EBITDA since they represent sharing of
a tax benefit which is not included in EBITDA. Accordingly, in computing Adjusted EBITDA, we have added back
these sales discounts. Our Adjusted EBITDA also reflects the deduction of income attributable to noncontrolling
interest in our Indiana Harbor cokemaking operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should
not be considered alternatives to net income or operating income under United States generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of the operating performance of the Company’s
assets and is indicative of the Company’s ability to generate cash from operations.
Adjusted EBITDA/Ton
represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by tons sold.
Free Cash Flow
equals cash from operations less cash used in investing activities less cash distributions to non-
controlling interests.  Management believes Free Cash Flow information enhances an investor’s understanding
of a business’
ability to generate cash.  Free Cash Flow does not represent and should not be considered an
alternative to net income or cash flows from operating activities as determined under GAAP and may not be
comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses.

Our industry-leading cokemaking technology meets

Natural Gas in The Blast Furnace
Impact of Low Natural Gas Prices
Natural gas cannot completely replace
coke in blast furnace
We estimate natural gas and other
injectants can replace up to about 30%
The less coke used the more important
the coke’s quality
Alternative technologies take time to
implement, require significant capital
commitments and are energy intensive
Coke oven gases produced by
integrated steelmakers’
own coke
ovens is less valuable in low cost
natural gas environment, potentially
impacting steelmakers’
future
reinvest/rebuild decisions
