<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On May&nbsp;5,
2009, Cliffs Natural Resources Inc. (&#147;Cliffs&#148;) filed a current report on Form&nbsp;8-K
announcing an extension of the shutdown of production at its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Northshore Mining Company (&#147;Northshore&#148;).&#160; Cliffs previously reported that production at
Northshore would be idled for one-month and that production was scheduled to
restart in May 2009.&#160; In the May&nbsp;5,
2009 Form&nbsp;8-K filed by Cliffs, Cliffs reported that the extension of the production
shutdown (which is now scheduled to continue into early July&nbsp;2009) is
necessary as Cliffs continues to scale production to be in line with customer
demand for iron ore pellets.&#160;&#160; Cliffs
also reported that the extension of the production shutdown will reduce total production
at Northshore to approximately 3.2 million tons for calendar 2009, a 13.5%
decrease from the 3.7 million tons of production previously estimated by
Cliffs.&#160; The current production estimate
is approximately 45 percent of Northshore&#146;s full operating capacity of 5.8
million tons.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Cliffs
also reported that, as a result of extended idling at Northshore, the number of
employees on layoff status will increase to 400 on May 10, 2009, and other
employees will be offered the option to volunteer for layoff. Cliffs further
reported that some employees will remain at the facility during the extended
shutdown to continue pellet shipping, perform maintenance and for other
non-pellet production functions.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Mesabi
Trust receives royalties based on the volume of shipments and the selling
prices of iron ore products shipped by Northshore, the lessee/operator of the
Mesabi Trust lands.&#160; The Trustees of the
Mesabi Trust have not received any information regarding the estimated volume
of shipments from Northshore during the extended shutdown or in 2009. Therefore,
the Trust cannot predict what impact the recently announced production shutdown
extension and increased production curtailment will have on the Trust&#146;s future royalties
to be received from Northshore.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><b><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">This Current Report on Form&nbsp;8-K contains
certain forward-looking statements with respect to iron ore pellet production,
iron ore pricing, shipments by Northshore in 2009, royalty amounts, which
statements are intended to be made under the safe harbor protections of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended.&#160; Actual production, prices and shipments of
iron ore pellets, as well as actual royalty levels (including bonus royalties)
could differ materially from current expectations due to inherent risks such as
general and industry economic trends, uncertainties arising from war, terrorist
events and other global events, higher or lower customer demand for steel and
iron ore, environmental compliance uncertainties, higher imports of steel and
iron ore substitutes, processing difficulties, consolidation and restructuring
in the domestic steel market, indexing features in Cliffs customer agreements
resulting in adjustments to royalties payable to the Trust and other
factors.&#160; Further, substantial portions
of royalties earned by Mesabi Trust are based on estimated prices that are subject
to interim and final adjustments, which can be positive or negative, and are
dependent in part on multiple price and inflation index factors under Cliffs
customer agreements to which the Trust is not a party and that are not known
until after the end of a contract year.&#160;
It is possible that future negative price adjustments could offset, or
even eliminate, royalties or royalty income that would otherwise be payable to
the Trust in any particular quarter, or at year end, thereby potentially
reducing cash available for distribution to the Trust&#146;s Unitholders in future
quarters.&#160; Although the Mesabi Trustees
believe that any such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable
assumptions, such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could
cause actual results to differ materially.</font></p>
