Explanation of responses
- F1Issued as deferred stock units (DSUs) in connection with reporting person's retainer, as a director, under the Steel Dynamics, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and exempt from Section 16(b) by virtue of Rule 16b-3(d)(1) and (3). These DSUs are reportable, however, as directly owned shares of common stock, rather than as a derivative security in Table II, because any and all underlying DSUs are payable, at such time as they are to be settled, solely in common stock. (See Lincoln National Corp. (March 20, 1992) (Q.3).
- F2Through control of Heidtman Steel Products, Inc., which holds these shares. Mr. Bates disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
