DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to Registration Statement No. 333-180102 of Metals USA Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) on Form S-3, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2012 (the “Registration Statement”), registering an unspecified amount of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share, stock purchase contracts, warrants and debt securities.

On April 12, 2013, the Company completed the merger contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of February 6, 2013, by and among the Company, Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co. (“Reliance”) and RSAC Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reliance (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company was acquired by Reliance through a merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reliance. At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock (other than dissenting shares, treasury shares, shares owned by Reliance and its subsidiaries and shares owned by any subsidiary of the Company) was cancelled and converted into the right to receive $20.65 in cash, without interest. Also at the effective time of the Merger, all of the Company’s outstanding equity awards were cancelled and converted into the right to receive consideration as described in the Merger Agreement.

As a result of the Merger, the Company has terminated any and all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. Accordingly, the Company hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and, in accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in Part II of the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities that had been registered for issuance but remain unsold at the termination of the offering, removes from registration any and all securities of the Company registered but unsold under the Registration Statement as of the date hereof.
