Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

RP STAK

On December 17, 2010, R&P incorporated RP STAK as a private foundation (stichting) organized under the laws of The Netherlands.

Page 7 of 50

Immediately prior to the incorporation of RP STAK, R&P controlled a significant portion of the voting power and had the ability to influence matters affecting, or submitted to a vote of the shareholders of SAN FAUSTIN, including the election of directors and the approval of certain corporate transactions and other matters concerning SAN FAUSTIN’s policies.

In connection with the redomiciliation of SAN FAUSTIN into the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg, it was deemed convenient that certain significant holdings in SAN FAUSTIN be reorganized. For these purposes, R&P incorporated RP STAK and, on February 11, 2011, shares in SAN FAUSTIN representing approximately 51.6% of SAN FAUSTIN’s votes and 39.7% of SAN FAUSTIN’s share capital were deposited with RP STAK. RP STAK holds all such SAN FAUSTIN shares in its own name but for the account of the depositors. The voting of the SAN FAUSTIN shares deposited with RP STAK is determined by RP STAK’s voting committee. The members of RP STAK’s voting committee (listed on Schedule I) are appointed annually by the meeting of depositors of SAN FAUSTIN voting shares.

Following the deposit with RP STAK of the SAN FAUSTIN shares, RP STAK will continue to control SAN FAUSTIN (i.e., it will have the ability to influence matters affecting, or submitted to a vote of the shareholders of SAN FAUSTIN, including the election of directors and the approval of certain corporate transactions and other matters concerning SAN FAUSTIN’s policies)

USIMINAS SHARES

The information presented in this Schedule 13D gives effect to the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement described below on or about February 15, 2011.

TECHINT HOLDINGS and Usinas Siderúrgicas de Minas Gerais S.A. – Usiminas, a sociedade anônima organized under the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil (“Usiminas Brazil”) are parties to that certain Shareholders’ Agreement, dated as of July 20, 2005 (the “Shareholders’ Agreement”), which provides for certain restrictions on the transferability of the Ordinary Shares held by Usiminas or its subsidiaries (the “Usiminas Shares”), including a right of first refusal granted in favor of TECHINT HOLDINGS with respect to any sales or transfers of the Usiminas Shares, subject to the conditions specified therein. In response to the desire by Usiminas Europa A/S, an aktieselskaber organized under the laws of Denmark (“Usiminas Europa”) and a subsidiary of Usiminas Brazil, to sell all or a portion of the Usiminas Shares in an underwritten public offering registered with the Commission, Usiminas Brazil and TECHINT HOLDINGS engaged in negotiations over several months concerning the waiver of TECHINT HOLDINGS’ right of first refusal in connection with any such sale of Usiminas Shares. As a result of those negotiations the parties entered into the Transaction and Registration Rights Agreement, made and entered into as of January 30, 2011, by and among the Issuer, TECHINT HOLDINGS, Usiminas Brazil and Usiminas Europa (the “TRRA”).

Pursuant to the TRRA, TECHINT HOLDINGS agreed to waive its right of first refusal under the Shareholders’ Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the TRRA, to permit the sale of the Usiminas Shares in an underwritten public offering registered with the Commission and in certain other circumstances, as expressly provided in the TRRA.

Pursuant to the TRRA, on January 31, 2011, TECHINT HOLDINGS exercised its election to purchase from Usiminas Europa Usiminas Shares in an aggregate amount of US$100 million concurrently with and subject to, among other conditions, the closing of an underwritten registered public offering of Usiminas Shares within a specified period of time, and on February 9, 2011, following the pricing of the registered public offering, TECHINT HOLDINGS entered into a purchase agreement with Usiminas Brazil and Usiminas Europa (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which TECHINT HOLDINGS agreed to purchase from Usiminas Europa 27,777,780 Usiminas Shares concurrently with and subject to, among other conditions, the closing of the registered public offering on February 15, 2011.

Page 8 of 50

The purchase price for the Usiminas Shares purchased by TECHINT HOLDINGS under the Purchase Agreement is $3.6 per share, which is the equal to the public offering price of the American Depositary Shares (adjusted for the ratio of 10 Usiminas Shares per American Depositary Share) in the public offering. In connection with the TRRA and the Purchase Agreement, Usiminas Brazil and Usiminas Europa have agreed to pay TECHINT HOLDINGS a fee of US$13 million as consideration for the waiver of the right of first refusal described above and an additional fee of US$6.8 million in respect of the purchase by TECHINT HOLDINGS of the Usiminas Shares under the Purchase Agreement.

In connection with the registered public offering referred to above, TECHINT HOLDINGS has entered into a lock-up agreement, dated January 31, 2011 (the “Lock-Up Agreement”), in favor of the underwriters of the public offering, under which TECHINT HOLDINGS has agreed not to dispose of Ordinary Shares or to engage in certain specified transactions in the Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions or with the consent of the representatives of the underwriters, for a period ending 90 days after the date of the prospectus relating to the registered public offering.

10.1.

A Preferred Depositor is entitled to request the termination of the deposit of the Preferred Shares (totally or partially) corresponding to the Preferred Depositary Receipts held by such Preferred Depositor at any time, with a one month prior notice.

The termination will be effected by (i) transferring the relevant Preferred Shares to such Preferred Depositor in accordance with the laws applicable to such transfer and the registration thereof in the Share register of the Company and (ii) cancellation of the corresponding Preferred Depositary Receipts. Such cancellation shall be registered in the register of Depositors by the Manager.

Page 43 of 50

10.2	An Ordinary Depositor is entitled to request the termination of the deposit of the Ordinary Shares (totally or partially) corresponding to the Ordinary Depositary Receipts held by such Ordinary Depositor at any time, with a twelve months prior notice.

The termination will be effected by (i) transferring the relevant Ordinary Shares to such Ordinary Depositor in accordance with the laws applicable to such transfer and the registration thereof in the Share register of the Company and (ii) cancellation of the corresponding Ordinary Depositary Receipts. Such cancellation shall be registered by the Manager in the register of Depositors.

10.3

A Reconvertible Ordinary Depositor is entitled to request the termination of the deposit of the Reconvertible Ordinary Shares (totally or partially) corresponding to the Reconvertible Ordinary Depositary Receipts held by such Reconvertible Ordinary Depositor at any time, with a twelve months prior notice.

The termination will be effected by (i) transferring the relevant Reconvertible Ordinary Shares to such Reconvertible Ordinary Depositor in accordance with the laws applicable to such transfer and the registration thereof in the Share register of the Company and (ii) cancellation of the corresponding Reconvertible Ordinary Depositary Receipts. Such cancellation shall be registered by the Manager in the register of Depositors.

If all or part of the Reconvertible Ordinary Shares - corresponding to the Reconvertible Ordinary Depositary Receipts in respect whereof a termination of deposit request has been made - are converted (back) into Preferred Shares during the twelve months prior notice period, the one month prior notice period for termination of deposit of Preferred Shares as referred to in Article 10.1 will in that case automatically apply to the termination request in respect of such Shares, starting as of the date of the conversion (unless the twelve months prior notice period -that has already been started prior to conversion- ends at an earlier date than the date that the one month notice period -as started as of the conversion date- will end, in which case such earlier ending date shall apply).

10.4	In case of:

(i)

an amendment of these Conditions of Administration pursuant to Article 12; or

(ii)

an amendment of the Articles of Association of the Foundation pursuant to Article 19 of such Articles,

shall each Ordinary Depositor and each Reconvertible Ordinary Depositor whose rights are or may be affected pursuant to such an amendment and who has not approved of such amendment -irrespective whether and/or in which manner such Ordinary Depositor or such Reconvertible Ordinary Depositor participated in the meeting(s) of Depositors or the decision making process where the amendment has been resolved upon or approved of-

be entitled to request for the termination of the deposit of all Shares corresponding to all Depositary Receipts held by such Ordinary Depositor and/or Reconvertible Ordinary Depositor,

during the three months period following the date of the meeting of Depositors that resolved to effect the amendment, notwithstanding the provisions of Article 10.2. and 10.3.

The request can only relate to all Depositary Receipts -of whatsoever class- held by such Ordinary Depositor and/or Reconvertible Ordinary Depositor, and by consequence also includes any Preferred Depositary Receipts held by the relevant Depositor.

10.5	The Foundation shall not charge a special or specific termination fee for the termination of the deposit as referred to in this Article 10.

Upon termination of the holding in administration of all Shares, the Foundation will (i) transfer (the legal title to) all Shares -corresponding to the Depositary Receipts held by the relevant Depositors- to each of the relevant Depositors in accordance with the laws applicable to such transfer and register the same in the Share register of the Company and (ii) cancel all the (corresponding) Depositary Receipts.

14.2

The holding of the Shares in administration as referred to in Article 14.1 will be renewed automatically for a successive five year periods, except in respect of the Shares corresponding to the Depositary Receipts held by the relevant Depositors for which these Depositors give a non-renewal notice in writing to the Foundation twelve months prior to the relevant expiration date.

14.3

The non-renewal notice triggers the termination of the deposit of all Shares corresponding to the Depositary Receipts held by the notifying Depositor which termination shall -at least beneficially- be effective as per the end of the then effective term of the present Conditions of Administration as referred to in this Article 14.

Such termination shall (legally) be effected -as much as possible- as per the end of the then effective term of the present Conditions of Administration by (i) transferring the relevant Shares to such notifying Depositor in accordance with the laws applicable to such transfer and the registration thereof in the Share register of the Company and (ii) cancellation of the corresponding Depositary Receipts. Such cancellation shall be registered by the Manager in the register of Depositors.
