On March 10, 2008, United States Steel Corporation ("U. S. Steel") announced

contract with Northern Indiana Public Service Company. U. S. Steel intends
to seek a review of this decision, but expects to establish a pre-tax reserve
of approximately $45 million in its first quarter results. A copy of the press
release in substantially the form released is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
