1 Pursuant to the applicable bargaining agreements, benefits can be paid from certain VEBAs that are at least 70% funded (all VEBAs were over 70% funded at December 31, 2024). Certain agreements with plans holding VEBA assets have capped healthcare costs. For the Cleveland-Cliffs Steel LLC VEBA, we are required to make contributions based on earnings, and we may withdraw money from the VEBA plan to the extent funds are available for costs in excess of the cap. VEBA withdrawals are represented net of direct payments. There will be no further contributions to the Cleveland-Cliffs Steel LLC VEBA based on earnings for the remainder of the labor agreement with the USW, which expires in September 2026.

1 In 2023, the OPEB plans generated an actuarial gain relating to updates for demographic experience. We had adjustments relating to retirements, participation, persistency and census data updates.
|
2 The loss in per capita healthcare costs in 2024 relating to our OPEB plans is primarily due to unfavorable Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug healthcare rates, which are effective January 1, 2025. Additionally, we increased our short-term Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug trend rate assumption.

1 The health care trend rate is weighted for all of our OPEB plans and factors in our Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug pricing arrangements. In 2024, we maintained our assumed health care cost trend rate for self insured plans at 6.25%, which grades down on a linear basis to 4.50% by 2032. In 2024, the health care trend rate for the Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans assumes a 16.25% rate, which is primarily driven by our expectation that the impacts from the Inflation Reduction Act will negatively impact Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plan costs for the next year. We assume the healthcare trend rate for the Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans will realign with the self insured plans after the one time increase.

1 The most recent Pension Protection Act zone status available in 2024 and 2023 is for each plan's year-end at December 31, 2023 and 2022. The plan's actuary certifies the zone status. Generally, plans in the red zone are less than 65% funded, plans in the yellow zone are between 65% and 80% funded, and plans in the green zone are at least 80% funded. The IAM National Pension Fund's National Pension Plan voluntarily elected to place itself in the "Red Zone" in April 2019 and has implemented a rehabilitation plan to address its underfunded status. Additional contributions will be required as part of the rehabilitation plan until the plan exits the "Red Zone".
|
2 The "FIP/RP Status Pending/Implemented" column indicates plans for which a financial improvement plan or a rehabilitation plan is either pending or has been implemented, as defined by ERISA.
|
3 The surcharge represents an additional required contribution due as a result of the critical funding status of the plan.
|
4 We are party to six collective bargaining agreements that require contributions to the Steelworkers Pension Trust and three collective bargaining agreements that require contributions to the IAM National Pension Fund's National Pension Plan.
|
5 Plans that are not individually significant to our Company are presented in aggregate.
