2. 1 for 1

5. The Restricted units will vest on January 1, 2008 provided that the issuer meets certain financial tests. Once vested the restricted units are to be settled in either cash or ARLP common units, at the election of the Compensation Committee.

6. This common unit amount has been adjusted to reflect the completion by the issuer of a two-for-one split of its common units representing limited partner interests effective September 15, 2005.

7. On October 25, 2005, the Partnership's Compensation Committee determined that the vesting requirement for the 2003 Long-Term Incentive Plan grants had been satisfied as of September 30, 2005. As a result restricted units were vested on November 1, 2005 based upon the closing price of the common units at October 31, 2005 of $42.24.

8. Upon vesting, restricted units are withheld by the Partnership for payment of tax liability at the vesting price of $42.24.
