SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 17, 2020, we entered into an indenture among Cliffs, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and notes collateral agent, relating to the issuance by Cliffs of $400 million aggregate principal amount of 9.875% 2025 Senior Secured Notes in an offering that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including to strengthen our balance sheet and increase our liquidity. The 9.875% 2025 Senior Secured Notes will bear interest at an annual rate of 9.875% and were issued at a price of 94.5% of their principal amount.
On April 24, 2020, we issued an additional $555.2 million aggregate principal amount of 9.875% 2025 Senior Secured Notes at a price of 99.0% of their principal amount in an offering that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. These additional notes are of the same class and series as, and otherwise identical to, the 9.875% 2025 Senior Secured Notes issued on April 17, 2020, other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price. We used the net proceeds from the offering of these additional notes to repurchase approximately $736.4 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding senior notes of various series, which resulted in a principal debt reduction of approximately $181.3 million.
