     such period was approved by a vote of at least one-third of the Directors
     of Cleveland-Cliffs who are Directors of Cleveland-Cliffs on the date of

Cliffs or any other person or entity on behalf of Cleveland-Cliffs except as
herein expressly provided.

          (f) This Trust Agreement No. 2 shall be construed as a part of the
Executive Agreements, the Severance Plan and the Retention Plan.

          (g) This Trust is intended to be a grantor trust, within the meaning
of Section 671 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or
any successor provision thereto, and shall be construed accordingly. The Trust
is not designed to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code or to be subject to
the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended ("ERISA").

          2. PAYMENTS TO INDEMNITEES. (a) The Trustee shall promptly pay
Expenses to the Indemnitees from the assets of the Trust in accordance with
Section 13 of the Executive Agreements, Section 12 of the Severance Plan,

for payment of Expenses hereunder received by the Trustee,

<PAGE>

                                                                               7

the Trustee shall immediately give appropriate notice thereof to all
Indemnitees, and shall make no payment of Expenses until the 21st day after such
notice has been given; and (iv) the requirements of Section 2(c) and 2(d) hereof
have been satisfied. The Trustee shall promptly inform the Company as to amounts
paid to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section.

          (b) It is the intention of Cleveland-Cliffs that during the 21-day
period prescribed by Section 2(a) (iii) hereof, the Indemnitees will make
reasonable efforts to consult with each other and to take into account the
interests of all Indemnitees in deciding on how best to proceed to enforce the
provisions of the Executive Agreements, the Severance Plan, and/or the Retention
Plan such that the assets of the Trust are utilized most effectively; provided,
however, that this Section 2(b) is to be construed as precatory in nature, and
in the absence of any other agreement or arrangement, this Trust Agreement No. 2
(without regard to this Section 2(b)) shall apply to the payment of Expenses.

          (c) A demand for payment by an Indemnitee hereunder must be made
within two months of the date on which the Indemnitee receives a bill, invoice
or other statement setting forth the Expenses that have been incurred. In order
to demand payment hereunder, the Indemnitee must deliver to the Trustee (i) a
certificate signed by or on behalf of such Indemnitee, certifying to the Trustee
that the Company is in default in paying the Indemnitee a specified amount which
the Indemnitee

                                                                               8

states to be owed under an Executive Agreement, the Severance Plan or the
Retention Plan, and (ii) a notice in writing and in reasonable detail of the
Expenses that are to be paid hereunder.

          (d) To the extent payments hereunder may be made only from funds held
in the form of a deposit or obligation, such payments may be postponed until
such deposit or obligation shall have matured. Payments shall be made to the
Indemnitee in the full amount noticed until the Trust is depleted; provided that
if on the date such amount is to be paid from the Trust other amounts have been
claimed but not yet paid to the same or other Indemnitees and the aggregate
amount so claimed exceeds the amount available in the Trust, the Trustee shall
only pay that portion of the amount then payable to each such Indemnitee
determined by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is
the amount then in the Trust and the denominator of which is the aggregate
amount noticed by the Indemnitees to be owed but not yet paid to that date.

          3. RIGHTS OF INDEMNITEES. (a) Nothing in this Trust Agreement No. 2
shall in any way diminish any rights of any Indemnitee to pursue his rights as a
general creditor of the Company with respect to Expenses or otherwise, and (b)
the rights of the Indemnitees under the Executive Agreements, Severance Plan or
Retention Plan shall in no way be affected or diminished by any provision of
this Trust Agreement No. 2 or action taken pursuant to this Trust Agreement No.
2, it being the intent of Cleveland-Cliffs that rights of the Indemnitees be
security for

obligations of the Company under the Executive Agreements, Severance Plan or
Retention Plan, except that any payment actually received by any Indemnitee
hereunder shall reduce dollar-per-dollar amounts otherwise due to such
Indemnitee pursuant to Section 13 of the Executive Agreements, Section 12 of the
Severance Plan, or Article IX of the Retention Plan, as applicable.

          4. PAYMENTS TO CLEVELAND-CLIFFS. Except to the extent expressly
contemplated by Section 1(b), Cleveland-Cliffs shall have no right or power to
direct the Trustee to return any of the Trust assets to Cleveland-Cliffs before
all payments of Expenses have been made to all Indemnitees as herein provided.

          5. INVESTMENT OF TRUST FUND. The Trustee shall invest the principal of
the Trust including any income accumulated and added to principal in (a)
interest-bearing deposit accounts or certificates of deposit (including any such
accounts or certificates issued or offered by the Trustee or any successor or
affiliated corporation but excluding obligations of the Company), (b) direct
obligations of the United States of America, or obligations the payment of which
is guaranteed, as to both principal and interest, by the government or an agency

90 days after the date of purchase.  Nothing in this Trust
Agreement No. 2 shall preclude the commingling of Trust assets
for investment.  The Trustee shall not be required to invest
nominal amounts.

                  6.  INCOME OF THE TRUST.  During the continuance of
this Trust all net income of the Trust shall be retained in the

reasonable detail of all investments, receipts, disbursements and all other
transactions required to be done, including such specific records as shall be
agreed upon in writing by Cleveland-Cliffs and the Trustee. All such accounts,
books and records shall be open to inspection and audit at all reasonable times
by Cleveland-Cliffs, by any Indemnitee or by any agent or representative of any
of the foregoing. Within 60 calendar days following the end of each calendar
year and within 60 calendar days after the removal or resignation of the
Trustee, the Trustee shall deliver to Cleveland-Cliffs and, if such year end,

such purchases or sales (accrued interest paid or receivable being shown
separately), and showing all cash, securities, rights and other property held in
the Trust at the end of such year or as of the date of such removal or
resignation, as the case may be. The Trustee shall furnish to Cleveland-Cliffs
on a quarterly basis (or as Cleveland-Cliffs shall direct from time to time) and
in a timely manner such information regarding the Trust as Cleveland-Cliffs
shall require for purposes of preparing its statements of financial condition.
Unless Cleveland-Cliffs or any Indemnitee shall have filed with the Trustee
written exception or objection to any such statement and account within 90 days
after receipt thereof, Cleveland-Cliffs or the Indemnitee shall be deemed to
have approved such statement and account, and in such case the Trustee shall be
forever released and discharged with respect to all matters and things reported
in such statement and account as though it had been settled by a decree of a
court of competent jurisdiction in an action or proceeding to which
Cleveland-Cliffs and the Indemnitees were parties.

          8. RESPONSIBILITY OF TRUSTEE. (a) The Trustee shall act with the care,

          (b) The Trustee shall not be required to undertake or to defend any
litigation arising in connection with this Trust Agreement No. 2 unless it be
first indemnified by Cleveland-Cliffs against its prospective costs, expenses,
and liabilities (including without limitation attorneys' fees and expenses)
relating thereto, and Cleveland-Cliffs hereby agrees to indemnify the Trustee
and to be primarily liable for such costs, expenses and liabilities.

          (c) The Trustee may consult with legal counsel (which, after a Change
of Control, shall be independent with respect to the Company) with respect to
any of its duties or obligations hereunder, and shall be fully protected in

restatement or successor shall not affect the Trustee's duties and
responsibilities hereunder without the consent of the Trustee.

<PAGE>

                                                                              14

          (b) Cleveland-Cliffs shall provide the Trustee with all information
requested by the Trustee for purposes of determining payments to the Indemnitees

shall, to the extent necessary in the sole judgment of the Trustee, (i) compute
the amount payable hereunder to any Indemnitee; and (ii) notify Cleveland-Cliffs
and the Indemnitee in writing of its computations. Thereafter this Trust
Agreement No. 2 shall be construed as to the Trustee's duties and obligation
hereunder in accordance with such Trustee determinations without further action;
provided, however, that no such determinations shall in any way diminish the
rights of the Indemnitees hereunder or under the Executive Agreements, Severance
Plan or Retention Plan, and provided, further, that no such determination shall
be deemed to modify this Trust Agreement No. 2 or any Executive Agreement, the
Severance Plan, or the Retention Plan.

appropriate, Cleveland-Cliffs shall furnish to the Trustee any amendment to
Exhibit A for the purpose of the addition of Indemnitees to Exhibit A (or the

the future be entitled to Expenses); provided, however, that no such amendment
shall be made after the date of a Change of

<PAGE>

                                                                              15

Control, other than to designate a different address pursuant to Section 14
hereof.

          10. COMPENSATION AND EXPENSES OF TRUSTEE. The Trustee shall be
entitled to receive such reasonable compensation for its services as shall be
agreed upon by Cleveland-Cliffs and the Trustee. The Trustee shall also be
entitled to reimbursement of its reasonable expenses incurred with respect to
the administration of the Trust including fees and expenses incurred pursuant to
Sections 8(c) and 8(e) hereof. Such compensation and expenses shall in all
events be payable either directly by Cleveland-Cliffs or, in the event that
Cleveland-Cliffs shall refuse, from the assets of the Trust. The Trust shall
have a claim against Cleveland-Cliffs for any such compensation or expenses so
paid.

          11. REPLACEMENT OF THE TRUSTEE. (a) The Trustee may resign after
providing not less than 90 days' notice to Cleveland-Cliffs and, on or after the
date on which a Change of Control has occurred, to the Indemnitees. Prior to the
date on which a Change of Control has occurred, the Trustee may be removed at
any time by Cleveland-Cliffs. On or after such date, such removal shall also
require the agreement of a majority of the Indemnitees. Prior to the date on
which a Change of Control has occurred, a replacement or successor trustee shall
be appointed by Cleveland-Cliffs. On or after such date, such appointment shall
also require the agreement of a majority of the Indemnitees. No such removal or
resignation shall become

                                                                              16

effective until the acceptance of the trust by a successor trustee designated in
accordance with this Section 11. If the Trustee should resign, and within 45
days of the notice of such resignation Cleveland-Cliffs and a majority of the
Indemnitees (if required) shall not have notified the Trustee of an agreement as
to a replacement trustee, the Trustee shall appoint a successor trustee, which
shall be a bank or trust company, wherever located, having a capital and surplus
of at least $500,000,000 in the aggregate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a new
trustee shall be independent and not subject to control of either
Cleveland-Cliffs or the Indemnitees. Upon the acceptance of the trust by a
successor trustee, the Trustee shall release all of the monies and other
property in the Trust to its successor, who shall thereafter for all purposes of
this Trust Agreement No. 2 be considered to be the "Trustee."

          (b) For purposes of the removal or appointment of a trustee under this
Section 11, if any Indemnitee shall be deceased or adjudged incompetent, such
Indemnitee's personal representative (including his or her guardian, executor or
administrator) shall participate in such Indemnitee's stead.

          12. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION. (a) This Trust Agreement No. 2 may be
amended at any time and to any extent by a written instrument executed by the
Trustee, Cleveland-Cliffs and, on or after the date on which a Change of Control
has occurred, a majority of the Indemnitees, except to make the Trust revocable
after it has become irrevocable in accordance with Section 1(b)

<PAGE>

                                                                              17

hereof, or to alter Section 12(b) hereof, except that amendments contemplated by
Section 9 hereof shall be made as therein provided.

          (b) The Trust shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) the tenth
anniversary of the date on which a Change of Control has occurred; (ii) the
third anniversary of the date on which a Change of Control has occurred,
provided that the Trustee has received no demand for payment of Expenses prior
to such anniversary; (iii) such time as the Trust no longer contains any assets;
(iv) such time as the Trustee shall have received consents from all Indemnitees
to the termination of this Trust Agreement No. 2; or (v) there is no longer any
living Indemnitee under this Trust Agreement No. 2 and there is no pending
demand by the estate of any Indemnitee against the Trust.

          (c) Upon termination of the Trust as provided in Section 12(b) hereof,
any assets remaining in the Trust shall be returned to Cleveland-Cliffs unless a
determination is made by legal counsel experienced in such matters that the
assets of the Trust may not be returned to Cleveland-Cliffs without violating
