                      [GENEVA STEEL COMPANY LETTERHEAD]


                                March 11, 1996


Shareholders of Geneva Steel


Dear Shareholder:

        Since the proxy statement and form of proxy were mailed to shareholders
in connection with the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, scheduled for March 26,
1996 (the "Annual Meeting"), the Company has received the resignation of A.
Blaine Huntsman as a director. Mr. Huntsman will not, therefore, stand for
reelection at the Annual Meeting.

        Pursuant to the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act, any vacancy
occurring in the Board of Directors may be filled by appointment by the
remaining directors. The Board intends to conduct a search for a qualified
replacement and to exercise its authority to fill the vacany; however, it is
not expected that the search will be concluded or that the vacancy will be
filled until after the Annual Meeting. As a result, the proxy holders intend to
cast their votes for six nominees at the Annual Meeting, leaving a vacancy to
be filled at a later time.

        Mr. Huntsman has been a valuable contibuting member of the Company's
Board of Directors. We thank him for his service and wish him well.

                                        Best regards,           

                                        /s/ JOSEPH A. CANNON
                                        Joseph A. Cannon
                                        Chairman of the Board and
                                        Chief Executive Officer
