Item 4.	Ownership
	Pursuant to the terms of the Schnitzer Steel Industries, Inc. Restated Voting Trust and Buy-Sell Agreement dated March 26, 2001 (the "Schnitzer Trust Agreement"), the beneficial owners of 3,587,608 shares of Class B Common Stock of the Company have contributed those shares to the Schnitzer Steel Industries, Inc. Voting Trust (the "Schnitzer Trust"). The Schnitzer Trust is divided into four separate groups, one for each branch of the Schnitzer family. Carol S. Lewis, Dori Schnitzer, Gary Schnitzer, and Rita S. Philip are the four trustees of the Schnitzer Trust, and each is also the separate trustee for his or her separate family group. Pursuant to the Schnitzer Trust Agreement, the trustees as a group have the power to vote the shares held in the Schnitzer Trust and, in determining how the trust shares will be voted, each trustee separately has the number of votes equal to the number of shares held in trust for his or her family group.
	The Reporting Persons are all beneficial owners of shares of Class B Common Stock contributed to the Schnitzer Trust. Each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock.
	See Items 5 through 9 and 11 of the Cover Pages for the beneficial ownership of Class A Common Stock by each Reporting Person. All of the shares of Class A Common Stock reported in Items 5 through 9 and 11 of the Cover Pages are shares which may be acquired upon conversion of Class B Common Stock, except for the following shares of Class A Common Stock that are actually owned or subject to exercisable options:

        NOW, THEREFORE, the Beneficial Owners agree as follows:

        1.    Joint Filing Agreement. The Beneficial Owners hereby agree that the Schedule 13G reporting their beneficial ownership as of December 31, 1993 of Class A Common Stock of the Company is, and any amendments thereto or any future Schedule 13Gs or amendments thereto signed by each of the undersigned personally or through an attorney-in-fact shall be, filed on behalf of each of them pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Rule 13d-1(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

        2.    Power of Attorney. Each Beneficial Owner hereby constitutes and appoints Kenneth M. Novack, Edgar C. Shanks and Charles A.

The undersigned ratifies and confirms all that such attorney and agent shall do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.
