RESOLVED, that the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of Worthington Steel, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the “Corporation”), in the form attached hereto and made a part hereof, be, and hereby are, adopted, to replace and supersede in their entirety the initial Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation and any amendments thereto.

AMENDED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OF WORTHINGTON STEEL, INC. FIRST: The name of the Corporation shall be Worthington Steel, Inc. SECOND: The place in Ohio where the principal office of the Corporation is to be located is in the City of Columbus, County of Franklin. THIRD: The purpose for which the Corporation is formed is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be formed under the General Corporation Law (Chapter 1701)of the Ohio Revised Code. FOURTH: 1. Capital Stock. The total number of shares which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is One Hundred Fifty-One Million (151,000,000) shares, of which One Hundred Fifty Million (150,000,000), each without par value, shall be of a class designated “Common Shares” and One Million (1,000,000), each without par value, shall be of a class designated “Preferred Shares.” II. Preferred Shares. The board of directors is authorized to provide for the issuance from time to time in one or more series of any number of authorized and unissued Preferred Shares, each of such series to have such terms as stated or expressed herein and in the amendments to these Amended Articles of Incorporation providing for the creation of such series adopted by the board of directors as hereinafter provided. Subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE FOURTH and the limitations prescribed by law, the board of directors is expressly authorized to adopt amendments to these Amended Articles of Incorporation in respect of any unissued or treasury Preferred Shares and thereby establish or change the number of shares to be included in each such series and to fix the designation and relative rights and preferences of, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions on, the shares of each such series, (collectively, a “Preferred Shares Designation Amendment”). The authority of the board of directors with respect to each series shall include, but not be limited to, determination of the matters described in Section 1701.06 of the Ohio Revised Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Preferred Shares Designation Amendment may provide that a series of Preferred Shares shall be superior or rank equally or be junior to any other series of Preferred Shares to the extent permitted by law and these Amended Articles of Incorporation. Except as otherwise required by law, holders of any series of Preferred Shares shall be entitled only to such voting rights, if any, as shall expressly be granted thereto by these Amended Articles of Incorporation, as amended by a Preferred Shares Designation Amendment. 111. Common Shares. The board of directors is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by law and the provisions of this ARTICLE FOURTH, to provide for the issuance from time to time of any number of authorized and unissued Common Shares, and shall determine the terms under which and the consideration for which the Corporation shall issue its Common Shares. A. Subject to the provisions of any applicable law, at every meeting of the shareholders, each holder of Common Shares shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each Common Share standing in the name of such shareholder on the books of the Corporation, on each matter on which the Common Shares are entitled to vote. I

B. Subject to the rights of holders of the Preferred Shares, the holders of the Common Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the board of directors, out of the assets of the Corporation which are by law available therefor, dividends payable in cash, in property, or in shares. C. In the event of any dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, either voluntarily or involuntarily, the holders of the Common Shares shall be entitled, after payment or provision for payment in full of the debts and other liabilities of the Corporation and the amounts to which the holders of the Preferred Shares shall be entitled, to share ratably in the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its shareholders to the exclusion of the Preferred Shares (unless otherwise provided in any Preferred Shares Designation Amendment). Neither the merger or consolidation of the Corporation, nor the sale, lease or conveyance of all or part of its assets, shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation within the meaning of this Subparagraph III.C. IV. No Pre-emptive Rights. No holder of shares of the Corporation of any class shall have, as such, as a matter of right, the pre-emptive right to subscribe for or purchase any part of any new or additional issue of shares of any class whatsoever, or of securities or other obligations convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of any class whatsoever or which by warrants or otherwise entitle the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class whatsoever, whether now or hereafter authorized and whether issued for cash or other consideration or by way of dividend. FIFTH: The board of directors shall have the power to cause the Corporation from time to time and at any time to purchase, hold, sell, transfer or otherwise deal with (l) shares of any class or series issued by it, (II) any security or other obligation of the Corporation which may confer upon the holder thereof the right to convert the same into shares of any class or series authorized by these Amended Articles of Incorporation, and (ill) any security or other obligation which may confer upon the holder thereof the right to purchase shares of any class or series authorized by these Amended Articles of Incorporation. The Corporation shall have the right to repurchase, if and when any shareholder desires to sell, or on the happening of any event is required to sell, shares of any class or series issued by the Corporation. The authority granted in this ARTICLE FIFTH of these Amended Articles of Incorporation shall not limit the plenary authority of the board of directors to purchase, hold, sell, transfer or otherwise deal with shares of any class or series, securities or other obligations issued by the Corporation or authorized by these Amended Articles of Incorporation. SIXTH: All of the authority of the Corporation shall be exercised by or under the direction of the board of directors except as otherwise provided in these Amended Articles of Incorporation or the Amended Regulations of the Corporation (as may be further amended and/or restated, the “Regulations”) or required by law, as each may be amended from time to time. For the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation, and in further creation, definition, limitation and regulation of the power of the Corporation and of its directors and of its shareholders, it is further provided as follows: I. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Regulations of the Corporation shall so provide. 11. Subject to the rights of the holders of any Preferred Shares to elect additional directors under specific circumstances, the number of directors of the Corporation 2

III.

IV. Subject to the rights of the holders of any Preferred Shares, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors and any vacancies on the board of directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other cause may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the board of directors and shall not be filled by the shareholders. Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the new directorship was created or the vacancy occurred and until such director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified. No reduction in the number of directors constituting the board of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. V. Subject to the rights of the holders of any Preferred Shares to elect directors under specified circumstances, (1) any director, all the directors of a particular class, or the entire board of directors, may be removed from office, but only for cause, only by the affirmative vote of the holders of record of outstanding shares representing at least 75% of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of all then outstanding shares of Voting Stock (as defined in Paragraph IV of ARTICLE SEVENTH hereof), voting together as a single class, and entitled to vote in respect thereof, and (2) any director may be removed from office, (i) pursuant to Section 1701.58(B) of the Ohio Revised Code, by a majority of the directors then in office, or (ii) for cause, by the affirmative vote of three-fourths (3/4) of the directors then in office. VI. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the shareholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of such shareholders and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such shareholders.
