On July 18, 2007, the Board of Directors of Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co. increased the number
of authorized directors from 9 to 10 and elected Andrew G. Sharkey III to serve as a director
subject to receipt of his consent. Mr. Sharkey consented on July 19, 2007. Mr. Sharkey has served
as president and chief executive officer of the American Iron and Steel Institute since 1993 and
from 1978 to 1993 was president, executive vice president and director of education for the Steel
Service Center Institute (currently the Metals Service Center Institute). Mr. Sharkey will serve
on the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the
Board of Directors. There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Sharkey and any other
persons pursuant to which he was selected as a director. Mr. Sharkey’s term on the Board of
Directors will continue until the Reliance Annual Meeting of Shareholders in May 2008. Reliance is
not engaged in any transaction with Mr. Sharkey or with any company that he controls. After
