Subject: RE: Steel Master Form Morris, My comments on the Master Steel Agreement are as follows: 1. Section 3.7 - The Taxes arising at the Delivery Point should be the=20 responsibility of the Buyer rather than Seller (i.e., Seller should be=20 responsible for all Taxes applicable to the Commodity being sold under the= =20 Master Agreement arising upstream of the Delivery Point and Buyer should be= =20 responsible for all Taxes applicable to the Commodity being sold under the= =20 Master Agreement arising at and downstream of the Delivery Point). 2. Section 3.7 - The phrase "within [___] days" should be added immediate= ly=20 before the comma in the sentence beginning "[i]f Buyer and Seller are unabl= e=20 to reach mutual agreement...." 3. Section 3.7 - The following sentence should be inserted before the=20 sentence beginning "If either party is exempt from Taxes...": Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party is not liable for any applicable Tax= es=20 that are legally imposed on the other Party and that are refundable to the= =20 other Party, including without limitation value added or goods and services= =20 taxes. 4. Section 9 - The following sentence should be added to the definition o= f=20 Delivery Point: For purposes of transactions involving an Option on the Commodity, the=20 Delivery Point shall be defined to mean the date of delivery to the Buyer o= f=20 written confirmation of the purchase and sale of the Option, which date sha= ll=20 be in all cases not earlier than one day following the day of acceptance of= =20 the Counterparty=01,s offer. 5. Section 9 - The phrase "goods and services taxes," should be added to= =20 the definition of New Taxes immediately after the phrase "value added taxes= ,". 6. Section 9 - The words "value added, goods and services," should be add= ed=20 to the definition of Taxes immediately after the word "use,". Please let me know if you have any questions or need any additional=20 information.

My=20 concern with the steel master is twofold: (i) it will be used for=20 international counterparties; and (ii) the treatment of options in many=20 foreign jurisdictions. Thanks for your help.
