4 Oracle in Natural Resources Did You Know? More than 500 Natural Resources Companies run Oracle applications 14 of the top 20 paper companies run Oracle Applications 7 of the top 10 construction materials companies run Oracle Applications 4 of the top 7 steel companies run Oracle Applications 4 of the top 8 metals mining companies run Oracle Applications 4

5 The Challenges We re Hearing Industry Consolidation How can I stay profitable when fewer and larger competitors can dictate price and service levels? The global nature of the markets served and the advantages of scale mean that consolidation around a set of industry behemoths is inevitable. Complex Global Supply Chains How can I manage complex supply and distribution networks to take advantage of sourcing opportunities and new markets? Three inescapable forces in a world of demanding customers severe cost pressures, attractive new markets, and accelerating new product introductions have substantially increased the complexity of manufacturers supply chains. 5

6 The Challenges We re Hearing Specialized Customer Requirements How can I manage specification-matched products and customized quality requirements at a reasonable cost? We can add value for our customers by offering more refined products and by optimizing product and service quality to meet their needs. Margin Pressures With already thin margins and increasing cost pressures, how can I operate more effectively in a cyclical market? Cost pressures are re-shaping the steel industry and it is the high-quality, low-cost producers who will win. Asset Performance How can I maximize the performance of my producing assets to improve market responsiveness and increase shareholder value? Existing operations have been running at, or near, full capacity for three years, following a tough decade during which underinvestment was prevalent. The sustainability of production is justifiably questioned and is arguably starting to be seen in recent production reports. There is also little excess capacity to replace production shortfalls; 6

Existing operations have been running at, or near, full capacity for three years, following a tough decade during which underinvestment was prevalent. The sustainability of production is justifiably questioned and is arguably starting to be seen in recent production reports. There is also little excess capacity to replace production shortfalls; Capital expenditures in Mining increased by 31% year to year 7
