TABLE OF CONTENTS
INTRODUCTORY NOTE
This Registration Statement registered resales of 172,500 shares of 3.25% redeemable
cumulative convertible perpetual preferred stock (the Preferred Stock) of Cleveland Cliffs Inc
(the Company), $172,500,000 principal aggregate amount of 3.25% convertible subordinated
debentures issuable upon exchange for the Preferred Stock (the Debentures) and 5,564,506 common
shares (taking into account the Companys two-for-one stock split effective as of December 31,
2004) issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and the Debentures (the Common Shares).
The Company was contractually obligated to register resales of the Preferred Stock, Debentures and
Common Shares and to maintain this Registration Statements effectiveness for a period of two years
from the original issuance of the Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock was originally issued on
January 21, 2004, and therefore the Company is no longer contractually obligated to maintain the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement due to the expiration of such period. Accordingly,
this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is being filed in order to deregister 92,655 shares of
Preferred Stock, $172,500,000 in aggregate principal amount of Debentures and 5,564,506 Common
Shares that have not been resold hereunder.
