                           BULLETIN
                         PROXY ISSUE 
   The ESOP Search Committee
  requests your support in favor of
  amending the governance to allow for
  qualified people over 65 years of age
  to represent the ESOP on the Weirton
  Steel Board of Directors.
  
     Having gone through two searches for a STEEL PERSON to
  serve on the Board and Represent the Members of the ESOP, We
  have found a limited amount of qualified candidates. We recently
  lost Joe Nowak, a retired steel person and a person that was
  thought highly of by both Management and Union officials, as our
  representative because of age. We found Len Wise, another retired
  steel person, to represent us on the Board and we will lose Mr.
  Wise at the end of his first term because of his AGE. To end this
  cycle of losing GOOD people to represent the interest of the ESOP
  we must consider this Issue in a positive light.
     Please vote your proxies IN FAVOR OF THE CHANGE IN
  GOVERNANCE DEALING WITH THE 65 YEARS OF AGE
  LIMIT.
                               
  The change on this issue is supported by the Members of the
  Weirton Steel Board of Directors and the Full ESOP search
                          Committee.
