                                EXPLANATORY NOTE

         This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the "Amendment") to the
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-88947) (the
"Registration Statement") of USX Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Old
USX"), is being filed by USX Corporation (formerly USX HoldCo, Inc.), a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), pursuant to Rule 414 under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), to reflect the adoption by Old USX of a
holding company form of organizational structure. The holding company
organizational structure was implemented in accordance with Section 251(g) of
the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") pursuant to a Holding Company
Reorganization Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2001 (the "Reorganization
Agreement"), by and among the Company, Old USX, and United States Steel LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company
("SteelCo").

         Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the
Reorganization Agreement and in accordance with Section 251(g) of the DGCL and
Section 18-209 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, effective on July
2, 2001, Old USX was merged with and into SteelCo (the "Reorganization Merger").
At the effective time of the Reorganization Merger, SteelCo continued as the
surviving entity and as a wholly owned Subsidiary of USX and the separate
corporate existence of Old USX ceased in accordance with the DGCL. In the
Reorganization Merger: (i) each share of Old USX-Marathon Group Common Stock,
par value $1.00 per share ("Old USX-Marathon Group Common Stock") issued and
outstanding or held in treasury was automatically converted into one share of
the Company's Marathon Group Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share ("New
Marathon Group Common Stock"), (ii) each share of Old USX-U. S. Steel Group
Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Old USX-U. S. Steel Group Common
Stock") issued and outstanding or held in treasury was automatically converted
into one share of the Company's U. S. Steel Group Common Stock, par value $1.00
per share ("New U. S. Steel Group Common Stock"), and (iii) each share of Old
USX 6.50% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, no par value, issued and
outstanding or held in treasury was automatically converted into one share of
6.50% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, no par value, of the Company.

         Additionally, (i) each outstanding option to purchase Old USX-Marathon
Common Stock and Old USX-U. S. Steel Group Common Stock issued pursuant to the
1990 Stock Plan was assumed by USX and now represents an option to purchase,
upon the same terms and conditions, an identical number of shares of New
Marathon Group Common Stock and New U. S. Steel Group Common Stock,
respectively, (ii) each outstanding restricted share of Old USX-Marathon Common
Stock and Old USX-U. S. Steel Group Common Stock was automatically converted
into a restricted share of New Marathon Group Common Stock and New U. S. Steel
Group Common Stock, respectively, and (iii) each outstanding stock appreciation
right relating to Old USX-Marathon Common Stock and Old USX-U. S. Steel Group
Common Stock issued pursuant to the 1990 Stock Plan was assumed by USX and now
represents a stock appreciation right relating to New Marathon Group Common
Stock and New U. S. Steel Group Common Stock, respectively.

           In accordance with Rule 414 under the Securities Act, the Company, as
the successor issuer to Old USX, hereby expressly adopts Registration Statement
No. 333-88947 on Form S-3 as its own for all purposes of the Securities Act and
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

           The applicable registration fees were paid at the time of the
original filing of the Registration Statement.
