During the call, Lourenco Goncalves, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Cliffs, disclosed &#8220;&#8230; we are now extending the ongoing idle at our Northshore swing facility to at least April of next year.

Cliffs Announced Plan to extend Idle of all Operations at Northshore Mining Company until at least April 2023
On July 22, 2022, Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. ("Cliffs"), parent of Northshore Mining Company ("Northshore"), the lessee/operator of the leased lands upon which Mesabi Trust is dependent for its royalties, held a conference call to discuss Cliffs' second-quarter 2022 earnings.  During the call, Lourenco Goncalves, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Cliffs, disclosed "… we are now extending the ongoing idle at our Northshore swing facility to at least April of next year.  With the increased use of scrap company-wide in our steel making operations made possible by the acquisition of FPT last year, the pellets from Northshore are not needed at this time.  Rather than deplete this finite resource for the benefit of the Mesabi Trust and its so-called unit holders, we will keep Northshore idle until we decide otherwise."
Cliffs' announcement during its July 22, 2022 earnings call follows comments made by Cliffs' CEO on October 22, 2021, about its plans to shift DR-grade pellet production away from Northshore and into Minorca, making Northshore a swing operation and idling the Northshore operations from time to time, and on February 11, 2022 to idle all production at the Northshore mine, starting in the spring, carrying through at least to the fall period, and maybe beyond. Cliffs has not notified Mesabi Trust of any of the aforementioned operational changes. Further, Cliffs has not recently requested any changes to the royalty structure, which is governed by a 1989 royalty agreement, and Cliffs has historically failed to engage in meaningful negotiations requested by Mesabi Trust to address the interpretations of the royalty structure.
Mesabi Trust notes that any change to the royalty structure would require an amendment to the royalty agreement, which would require the approval of the Trustees as well as approval of 66 2/3% in interest of the Trust Certificate Holders.
