Offer to Exchange

        Up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (CUSIP No. 039380AE0) which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for any and all of our outstanding 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (CUSIP Nos. 039380AD2 and U0393CAB1); and

        Up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (CUSIP No. 039380AG5) which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for any and all of our outstanding 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (CUSIP Nos. 039380AF7 and U0393CAC9).

        The exchange offer will expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of                , 2012, unless earlier terminated or extended.

        The principal features of the exchange offer are as follows:

    We will issue up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "new 2019 notes") which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in exchange for any and all of our outstanding 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "old 2019 notes") that are validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the exchange offer.

    We will issue up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (the "new 2021 notes" and, collectively with the new 2019 notes, the "exchange notes") which have been registered under the Securities Act, in exchange for any and all of our outstanding 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (the "old 2021 notes" and, collectively with the old 2019 notes, the "original notes") that are validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the exchange offer.

    You may withdraw tenders of original notes at any time prior to the expiration of the exchange offer.

    The terms of the exchange notes are substantially identical to those of the original notes, except that the transfer restrictions, registration rights and provisions relating to additional interest with respect to the original notes generally do not apply to the exchange notes.

    The exchange of exchange notes for original notes will not be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. You should read the discussion under the caption "Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences" for more information.

    Neither Arch Coal nor any guarantor will receive any proceeds from the exchange offer.

        Arch Coal does not intend to apply for listing of the exchange notes on any securities exchange or for inclusion of the exchange notes in any automated quotation system.

        You should consider carefully the "Risk Factors" beginning on page 14 of this prospectus before participating in the exchange offer.

        Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes.

Forward-looking statements, by their nature, address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Actual results may vary significantly from those anticipated due to many factors, including:

    market demand for coal and electricity;

    geologic conditions, weather, including flooding, and other inherent risks of coal mining that are beyond our control;

    competition within our industry and with producers of competing energy sources;

    excess production and production capacity;

    our ability to successfully integrate the operations that we acquire;

    our ability to secure new coal supply arrangements or to renew existing coal supply arrangements;

    our relationships with, and other conditions affecting, our customers;

    the deferral of contracted shipments of coal by our customers;

    our ability to service our outstanding indebtedness;

    our ability to comply with the restrictions imposed by our credit facility and other financing arrangements;

    the availability and cost of surety bonds;

    failure by Magnum Coal Company, a subsidiary of Patriot Coal Corporation, to satisfy certain below-market contracts that we guarantee;

    our ability to manage the market and other risks associated with certain trading and other asset optimization strategies;

    terrorist attacks, military action or war;

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

        Except as otherwise indicated or where the context otherwise requires, in this prospectus, "Arch Coal," "the company," "we," "us" and "our" refer to Arch Coal, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. This summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus. This summary may not contain all of the information that you should consider before exchanging any of your original notes. You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the sections entitled "Risk Factors" in this prospectus and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before making a decision to participate in the exchange offer.


Business Overview

        We are one of the world's largest coal producers. For the year ended December 31, 2011 (which includes sales of the former International Coal Group, Inc. ("ICG") after June 14, 2011), we sold approximately 156.9 million tons of coal, including approximately 5.5 million tons of coal we purchased from third parties, representing roughly 14% of the 2011 U.S. coal supply. We sell substantially all of our coal to power plants, steel mills and industrial facilities. At December 31, 2011, we operated, or contracted out the operation of, 46 active mines located in each of the major coal-producing regions of the United States. The locations of our mines and access to export facilities enable us to ship coal to most of the major coal-fueled power plants, industrial facilities and steel mills located within the United States and on four continents worldwide.

        We estimate that we owned or controlled approximately 5.33 billion tons of proven and probable recoverable reserves as of December 31, 2011. Of these reserves, approximately 67% consist of compliance coal, or coal which emits 1.2 pounds or less of sulfur dioxide per million Btus upon combustion, while an additional approximately 5% could be sold as low-sulfur coal, or coal which emits 1.6 pounds or less of sulfur dioxide per million Btus upon combustion. The balance is classified as high-sulfur coal. Most of our reserves are suitable for the domestic steam coal markets.

        For a further discussion of our business, we urge you to read our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus. See "Where You Can Find More Information" in this prospectus.

As part of that private placement, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the initial purchasers of the original notes (the "registration rights agreement") in which we agreed, among other things, to deliver this prospectus to you and to complete an exchange offer for the original notes. Below is a summary of the terms of the exchange offer. For a more complete discussion of the exchange offer, see "The Exchange Offer" in this prospectus.

We also are offering to exchange up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of new 2021 notes in exchange for a like principal amount of old 2021 notes.

Representations

 

By tendering your original notes, you represent to us that:

 

you are not our "affiliate," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act;

 

you are acquiring the exchange notes in the exchange offer in the ordinary course of your business;

 

you are not engaged in or intend to engage in, and do not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution, as defined in the Securities Act, of the exchange notes you will receive in the exchange offer;

 

you are not holding original notes that have, or are reasonably likely to have, the status of an unsold allotment in the initial offering of original notes; and

 

you are not acting on behalf of a person who, to your knowledge, falls into one of the above categories.

 

For further information regarding resales of the exchange notes by participating broker-dealers, see "Plan of Distribution."

Accrued Interest

 

The exchange notes will bear interest from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the original notes. If your original notes are accepted for exchange in the exchange offer, you will receive interest on the exchange notes and not on the original notes following the completion of the exchange offer. Any original notes not tendered in the exchange offer will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest according to their terms following the completion of the exchange offer.

Conditions to the Exchange Offer

 

The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum aggregate principal amount of original notes being tendered for exchange. The exchange offer is subject to customary conditions. We may assert or waive these conditions in our sole and absolute discretion. See "The Exchange Offer—Conditions" for more information regarding the conditions to the exchange offer.

Procedures for Tendering Original
Notes

 

To tender original notes you must deliver a letter of transmittal and deliver the original notes to the exchange agent. Delivery of your original notes may be made by book-entry transfer to the exchange agent's account at DTC. If you hold your original notes in book-entry form through DTC, then in lieu of the procedure for physical delivery of a letter of transmittal and your original notes, you may follow the procedures for DTC's Automated Tender Offer Program ("ATOP").

Table of Contents

 

Specifically, to tender original notes in the exchange offer by delivery of a letter of transmittal and original notes:          

 

you must complete, sign and date the letter of transmittal, or a facsimile of the letter of transmittal, have the signature on the letter of transmittal guaranteed if the letter of transmittal so requires and deliver the letter of transmittal or facsimile to the exchange agent, including all the required documents, prior to the expiration of the exchange offer; and

 

either

 

the exchange agent must receive your original notes along with the letter of transmittal; or

 

the exchange agent must receive, before expiration of the exchange offer, timely confirmation of book-entry transfer of your original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC, according to the procedure for book-entry transfer described in "The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering—Delivery of Letter of Transmittal and Original Notes."

Table of Contents

Special Procedures for Beneficial
Owners

 

If you are a beneficial owner whose original notes are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, and you want to tender original notes in the exchange offer, you should contact the registered owner promptly and instruct the registered holder to tender on your behalf. If you wish to tender on your own behalf, you must, before completing and executing the letter of transmittal and delivering your original notes, either make appropriate arrangements to register ownership of the original notes in your name or obtain a properly completed bond power from the registered holder. See "The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering."

Withdrawal Rights

 

Tenders of original notes may be withdrawn at any time before midnight, New York City time, at the end of the expiration date. Any original notes that you tender and then validly withdraw will be returned without expense to you promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer.

Delivery of Exchange Notes

 

Subject to the conditions stated in the section "The Exchange Offer—Conditions" of this prospectus, we will accept for exchange any and all original notes which are properly tendered in the exchange offer before 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the expiration date. The exchange notes to be issued in exchange for any properly tendered original notes will be delivered as soon as practicable after the expiration date. If any valid tender of original notes is subsequently validly withdrawn or if we decide for any reason not to accept any original notes tendered for exchange because they have not been tendered properly, the withdrawn or unaccepted original notes will be returned to the tendering holder or credited to the tendering holder's account at DTC, as the case may be, promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer. See "The Exchange Offer—General."

Regulatory Approvals

 

Other than the federal securities laws, there are no federal or state regulatory requirements with which we must comply, and there are no approvals which we must obtain, in connection with the exchange offer.

Material United States Federal Tax
Consequences

 

Your exchange of original notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer will not be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See "Material United States Federal Tax Consequences."

Table of Contents

Use of Proceeds

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of exchange notes in the exchange offer. See "Use of Proceeds."

Resales

 

Based on interpretations by the staff of the SEC, as detailed in a series of no-action letters issued to third parties that are not related to us, we believe that the exchange notes to be issued in the exchange offer generally may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred without further compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act as long as:

 

you are not our "affiliate," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act;

 

you are acquiring the exchange notes in the exchange offer in the ordinary course of your business;

 

you are not engaged in or intend to engage in, and do not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution, as defined in the Securities Act, of the exchange notes you will receive in the exchange offer;

 

you are not holding original notes that have, or are reasonably likely to have, the status of an unsold allotment in the initial offering of original notes; and

 

you are not acting on behalf of a person who, to your knowledge, falls into one of the above exceptions.

 

Our belief that transfers of exchange notes would be permitted without registration or prospectus delivery under the conditions described above is based on SEC interpretations given to unrelated issuers in similar exchange offers. We cannot assure you that the SEC would make a similar interpretation with respect to this exchange offer. We do not intend to seek our own interpretation from the SEC with respect to this exchange offer.

 

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes, where such original notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. See "Plan of Distribution."

Table of Contents

Consequences of Not Exchanging
Original Notes

 

Original notes that are not properly tendered in the exchange offer will continue to be subject to their existing transfer restrictions. We will have no further obligation, except under limited circumstances, to provide for registration of any resale of such original notes under the Securities Act. In general, you may offer or sell your original notes only if:

 

the offer and sale of your original notes is registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws;

 

your original notes are offered or sold under an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; or

 

your original notes are offered or sold in a transaction not subject to the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

 

We currently do not anticipate that we will register any resales of original notes under the Securities Act. See "The Exchange Offer—Consequences of Failure to Tender."

Registration Rights Agreement

 

On the date of the initial issuance of the original notes, we entered into the registration rights agreement for the benefit of all of the holders of the original notes. Under the terms of the registration rights agreement, we agreed to file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offer to exchange the original notes for substantially similar notes. This exchange offer is being conducted to satisfy our obligations under the registration rights agreement.

 

If we do not, among other things, complete the exchange offer within 365 days of June 14, 2011, the interest rate borne by the old notes will be increased at a rate of 0.25% per annum with respect to the first 90-day period following such deadline and an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period, up to a maximum of 1.00% per annum, until the registration default has been cured.

 

Under some circumstances set forth in the registration rights agreement, holders of original notes, including holders who are not permitted to participate in the exchange offer or who may not freely sell exchange notes received in the exchange offer, may require us to file, and cause to become effective, a shelf registration statement covering resales of the original notes by these holders.

 

A copy of the registration rights agreement is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. See "Description of the Exchange Notes—Registration Rights."

Table of Contents

 

the terms of our other debt may prevent us from paying for the exchange notes.


Certain Covenants

 

The covenants contained in the indenture governing the exchange notes, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to:

 

incur more debt;

 

pay dividends and make distributions or repurchase stock;

 

make investments;

 

create liens;

 

sell assets;

 

enter into agreements affecting the ability of restricted subsidiaries to make distributions, loans or advances to us;

Many of the restrictive covenants will terminate if the notes achieve an investment grade rating from both Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") and Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("Standard & Poor's") and no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under the indenture. Covenants that cease to apply as a result of achieving these ratings will not be restored, even if the credit ratings assigned to the notes later fall below investment grade. See "Description of the Exchange Notes—Certain Covenants—Covenant Termination."

No Established Trading
Market

 

We do intend to list the exchange notes on any securities exchange or include the exchange notes in any automated quotation system. We cannot assure you that an active or liquid trading market for the exchange notes will develop. If an active or liquid trading market for the exchange notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the exchange notes may be adversely affected.

RISK FACTORS

        You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information included in and incorporated by reference into this prospectus before tendering your original notes in the exchange offer. In particular, you should carefully consider the matters discussed under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and in other documents which we subsequently file with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, prospects, results of operations or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected. Additional risks or uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also impair our business operations. We cannot assure you that any of the events discussed below will not occur, and if such events do occur, you may lose all or part of your investment in the exchange notes. The risks discussed below also include forward-looking statements and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See "Forward Looking Statements."

Risks Related to the Exchange Offer

    You may have difficulty selling any original notes that you do not exchange.

        If you do not exchange all of your original notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer, the original notes that you continue to hold after we have completed the exchange offer will continue to be subject to the currently existing transfer restrictions. The original notes may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred, except in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act or in a transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and, in any case, in compliance with applicable state securities laws. We do not anticipate that we will register any resales of the original notes under the Securities Act, except as may be required under the registration rights agreement. After the exchange offer is consummated, the trading market for the remaining untendered original notes may be small and inactive. Consequently, you may find it difficult to sell any original notes you continue to hold because there will be fewer original notes outstanding.

    Some holders of the exchange notes may be required to comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

        If you exchange your original notes in the exchange offer for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the exchange notes, you may be deemed to have received restricted securities and, if so, you will be required to comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction. In addition, a broker-dealer that purchased original notes for its own account as part of market-making or trading activities must deliver a prospectus when it resells the exchange notes it receives in the exchange offer. Our obligation to make this prospectus available to broker-dealers is limited. We cannot assure you that a proper prospectus will be available to broker-dealers wishing to resell their exchange notes. Further, any commission or concessions received by a broker-dealer in connection with any resale of exchange notes may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act.

    Failure to comply with the exchange offer procedures could prevent a holder from exchanging its original notes.

        Holders of the original notes are responsible for fully complying with all exchange offer procedures. The issuance of exchange notes in exchange for original notes will only occur upon completion of the procedures described in this prospectus under "The Exchange Offer." Therefore, holders of original notes who wish to exchange them for exchange notes should allow sufficient time for

14


Table of Contents

timely completion of the exchange procedures. Neither we nor the exchange agent are obligated to extend the offer or notify you of any failure to follow the proper procedures.

Risks Related to the Exchange Notes

    We have a substantial amount of debt, which limits our flexibility and imposes restrictions on us, and a downturn in economic or industry conditions may materially affect our ability to meet our future financial commitments and liquidity needs.

        We have, and after this exchange offer will continue to have, a substantial amount of indebtedness. As of December 31, 2011, we had consolidated indebtedness of approximately $4.0 billion outstanding, representing approximately 53% of our total capitalization. Our ability to satisfy our debt, lease and royalty obligations, and our ability to refinance our indebtedness, will depend upon our future operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions in the markets that we serve and financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We may be unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations and future borrowings or other financing may be unavailable in an amount sufficient to enable us to fund our future financial obligations or our other liquidity needs.

        The amount and terms of our debt could have material consequences to our business, including, but not limited to:

    limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund growth, such as new lease-by-application acquisitions or other mergers and acquisitions, working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements or other cash requirements;

    exposing us to the risk of increased interest costs if the underlying interest rates rise;

    limiting our ability to invest operating cash flow in our business due to existing debt service requirements;

    making it more difficult to obtain surety bonds, letters of credit or other financing, particularly during weak credit markets;

    causing a decline in our credit ratings;

    limiting our ability to compete with companies that are not as leveraged and that may be better positioned to withstand economic downturns;

    limiting our ability to acquire new coal reserves and/or plant and equipment needed to conduct operations; and

    limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, and increasing our vulnerability to, changes in our business, the industry in which we compete and general economic and market conditions.

        If we further increase our indebtedness, the related risks that we now face, including those described above, could intensify. In addition to the principal repayments on our outstanding debt, we have other demands on our cash resources, including capital expenditures and operating expense. Our ability to pay our debt depends upon our operating performance. In particular, economic conditions could cause our revenues to decline and hamper our ability to repay our indebtedness. If we do not have enough cash to satisfy our debt service obligations, we may be required to refinance all or part of our debt, sell assets or reduce our spending. We may not be able to, at any given time, refinance our debt or sell assets on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Table of Contents

    We are a holding company and depend on our subsidiaries to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service obligations, including payments on the exchange notes.

        We are a holding company, and substantially all of our consolidated assets are held by our subsidiaries. As a holding company, we conduct substantially all of our business through our subsidiaries. Accordingly, our cash flows and ability to meet our debt service obligations, including payments on the exchange notes, are largely dependent upon the earnings of our subsidiaries and the payment of such earnings to us in the form of dividends, distributions, loans or otherwise, and repayment of such loans or advances from us. These subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities, and we may not exercise sufficient control to cause them to provide us with funds for our payment obligations, whether by dividends, distributions, loans or otherwise. The ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other advances or transfer of funds will depend on their respective results of operations and may be restricted by, among other things, applicable law and contractual provisions limiting the amount of funds available to make dividends and agreements of those subsidiaries. For example, Arch Western Resources and its subsidiaries may only distribute or advance funds to us out of available cash, as defined in the indenture governing the Arch Western notes. In addition, the subsidiary of BP p.l.c. which owns a 1% membership interest in Arch Western Resources (the "BP Member") is entitled to receive cumulative preferred return distributions, with the preferred return being equal to an annual rate of 4% and calculated based on the BP Member's preferred capital account balance, which was approximately $2.4 million at December 31, 2011. Also, the BP Member's consent is required prior to any distribution by Arch Western Resources if Arch Western Resources, at that time, has a debt rating less favorable than Ba3 from Moody's or BB- from Standard & Poor's or fails to maintain an interest ratio of not greater than 3.0:1 and an indebtedness ratio of not greater than 3.5:1.

    The exchange notes and the related guarantees will not be secured by any of our assets and therefore will be effectively subordinated to our existing and future secured indebtedness.

        The exchange notes and the related guarantees will be general unsecured obligations ranking effectively junior in right of payment to all existing and future secured debt, including under our senior secured credit facility, to the extent of the collateral securing such debt. In addition, the indenture governing the exchange notes permits the incurrence of additional debt, some of which may be secured debt. In the event that Arch Coal or a guarantor is declared bankrupt, becomes insolvent or is liquidated or reorganized, creditors whose debt is secured by assets of Arch Coal or the guarantor, as the case may be, will be entitled to the remedies available to secured holders under applicable laws, including the foreclosure of the collateral securing such debt, before any payment may be made with respect to the exchange notes or the affected guarantees. As a result, there may be insufficient assets to pay amounts due on the exchange notes, and holders of the exchange notes may receive less, ratably, than holders of secured indebtedness. As of December 31, 2011, the total amount of secured debt that we had outstanding was $481.3 million, consisting entirely of amounts under our senior secured credit facility and our accounts receivable securitization program. We may also incur additional senior secured indebtedness.

    The exchange notes are structurally subordinated to the existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the exchange notes to the extent of the assets of such non-guarantor subsidiaries.

        Some of our subsidiaries, including Arch Western Resources and its subsidiaries, will not guarantee the exchange notes. As a result, the exchange notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the exchange notes. Therefore, our rights and the rights of our creditors to participate in the assets of any subsidiary in the event that such a subsidiary is liquidated or reorganized are subject to the prior claims of such subsidiary's creditors. As a result, all indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of the non-guarantor

16


Table of Contents

subsidiaries, whether secured or unsecured, must be satisfied before any of the assets of such subsidiaries would be available for distribution, upon a liquidation or otherwise, to us in order for us to meet our obligations with respect to the exchange notes. To the extent that we may be a creditor with recognized claims against any subsidiary, our claims would still be subject to the prior claims of such subsidiary's creditors to the extent that they are secured or senior to those held by us. Our subsidiaries may incur additional indebtedness and other liabilities.

        As of December 31, 2011, our non-guarantor subsidiaries had approximately $557.3 million of total indebtedness, consisting of the Arch Western notes and $106.3 million of borrowings under our accounts receivable securitization program and excluding $225.0 million owed to Arch Coal pursuant to an intercompany note. The non-guarantor subsidiaries represented approximately 53% of our consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011 and at December 31, 2011 represented approximately 21% of our consolidated assets (excluding intercompany receivables).

    Our ability to generate the significant amount of cash needed to pay interest and principal on the exchange notes and service our other debt and financial obligations and our ability to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness or obtain additional financing depends on many factors beyond our control.

        Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness, including the exchange notes, depends on our ability to generate cash in the future. We are subject to general economic, climatic, industry, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. In particular, economic conditions could cause the price of coal to fall, our revenue to decline and hamper our ability to repay our indebtedness, including the exchange notes. As a result, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness, including the exchange notes, on or before maturity. Our ability to refinance debt or obtain additional financing will depend on, among other things:

    our financial condition at the time;

    restrictions in the indenture governing the exchange notes and any other indebtedness; and

    other factors, including financial market or coal industry conditions.

        We may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including the exchange notes, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If our operations do not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and additional borrowings or refinancings are not available to us, we may not have sufficient cash to enable us to meet all of our obligations, including payments on the exchange notes.

    The terms of the agreements governing our indebtedness contain significant restrictions that limit our operating and financial flexibility.

        The indenture governing the original notes and the exchange notes and the agreements governing our and our subsidiaries' other indebtedness contain various covenants and other restrictions that limit our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to engage in specified types of transactions. These covenants and other restrictions limit our and our restricted subsidiaries' ability to, among other things:

    incur additional indebtedness;

    pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect of capital stock or make restricted payments;

    borrow the full amount under our credit facilities;

    make investments;

    create liens;

17


Table of Contents

    issue and sell capital stock of subsidiaries;

    sell or transfer assets;

    enter into restrictions affecting the ability of restricted subsidiaries to make distributions, loans or advances to us;

    engage in transactions with affiliates;

    enter into sale and leasebacks; and

    consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets.

        These restrictions on operations and financings, as well as those that may be contained in future debt agreements, may limit our ability to execute preferred business strategies. Moreover, if our operating results fall below current levels, we may be unable to comply with these covenants. If that occurs, our lenders, including holders of exchange notes, could accelerate the payment obligations with respect to that debt. If the payment obligations with respect to that debt are accelerated, we may not be able to repay all of that debt, in which case the indebtedness represented by your exchange notes may not be fully repaid, if it is repaid at all.

    Despite our current levels of debt, we may still be able to incur substantially more debt. This could further exacerbate the risks associated with our substantial debt.

        We may be able to incur additional debt in the future, including debt that is senior to your exchange notes. The terms of our senior secured credit facility, the indenture governing our outstanding 2016 notes and 2020 notes and the indenture governing the original notes and the exchange notes allow us to incur substantial amounts of additional debt, subject to certain limitations. As of December 31, 2011, we had availability of approximately $901.4 million under all lines of credit, as limited by customary financial covenants that may limit our total debt based on defined earnings measurements. If new debt is added to our current debt levels, the related risks we could face would be magnified.

    If the exchange notes become rated investment grade by both Standard & Poor's and Moody's, certain covenants contained in the indenture governing the exchange notes will be terminated, and you will lose the protection of these covenants permanently, even if the exchange notes subsequently fall back below investment grade.

        The indenture governing the exchange notes contains certain covenants that permanently will cease to be in effect from and after the first date when the exchange notes are rated investment grade by both Standard & Poor's and Moody's. These covenants restrict, among other things, our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to:

    incur additional debt;

    make distributions;

    sell capital stock or other assets; and

    engage in transactions with affiliates.

        Because these restrictions will not apply when the exchange notes are rated investment grade, we will be able to incur additional debt and consummate transactions that may impair our ability to satisfy our obligations with respect to the exchange notes. These covenants will not be restored even if the credit ratings assigned to the exchange notes subsequently below investment grade.

18


Table of Contents

    We may be unable to repurchase exchange notes in the event of a change of control as required by the indenture governing the exchange notes.

        Upon the occurrence of certain kinds of change of control events specified in the indenture governing the exchange notes, you will have the right, as a holder of the exchange notes, to require us to repurchase all of your exchange notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. Holders of original notes that remain outstanding after completion of the exchange offer and holders of our 2016 notes and 2020 notes also will have the right to require us to repurchase their original notes, 2016 notes and 2020 notes, as the case may be, at a repurchase price equal to 101% upon the occurrence of any of those specified change of control events. Any change of control also would constitute a default under our senior secured credit facility. Therefore, upon the occurrence of a change of control, the lenders under our senior secured credit facilities would have the right to accelerate the payment obligations with respect to outstanding loans under our senior secured credit facility, and if so accelerated, we would be required to pay all of our outstanding obligations under such facility. We may not be able to pay you the required price for your exchange notes at that time because we may not have available funds to pay the repurchase price. In addition, the terms of other existing or future debt may prevent us from paying you. There can be no assurance that we would be able to repay such other debt or obtain consents from the holders of such other debt to repurchase your exchange notes. Any requirement to offer to purchase any outstanding exchange notes may result in us having to refinance our outstanding indebtedness, which we may not be able to do. In addition, even if we were able to refinance our outstanding indebtedness, such financing may be on terms unfavorable to us.

    Federal and state fraudulent conveyance laws may permit a court to void the exchange notes and the related guarantees, and, if that occurs, you may not receive any payments on the exchange notes.

        The issuance of the exchange notes and the related guarantees may be subject to review under federal and state fraudulent conveyance statutes. While the relevant laws may vary from state to state, under such laws the payment of consideration generally will be a fraudulent conveyance if:

    it was paid with the intent of hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors;

    we or any of the guarantors received less than fair consideration in return for issuing either the exchange notes or a guarantee, as applicable, and either:

    we or the guarantor was insolvent, on the eve of insolvency or rendered insolvent by reason of the incurrence of the indebtedness; or

    payment of the consideration left us or the guarantor with an unreasonably small amount of capital to carry on the business; or

    we or the guarantor intended to, or believed that we or it would, incur debts beyond our or its ability to pay the debt.

        A court would likely find that we or a guarantor did not receive reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for the exchange notes or any of such guarantees if we or the applicable guarantor did not substantially benefit directly or indirectly from the issuance of the exchange notes or the applicable guarantee. As a general matter, value is given for a transfer or an obligation if, in exchange for the transfer or obligation, property is transferred or antecedent debt is secured or satisfied. We cannot be certain as to the standards a court would use to determine whether or not we or the guarantors were solvent at the relevant time or, regardless of the standard that a court uses, that the issuance of the

19


Table of Contents

guarantees would not be further subordinated to our or any of the guarantors' other debt. Generally, however, an entity would be considered insolvent if, at the time it incurred indebtedness:

    the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all its assets;

    the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probably liability on its existing debts, including contingent liabilities as they become absolute and mature; or

    it could not pay its debts as they become due.

        If a court were to find that the issuance of the exchange notes or a related guarantee was a fraudulent conveyance, the court could void the payment obligations under the exchange notes or such guarantee or subordinate the exchange notes or such guarantee to presently existing and future indebtedness, or require the holders of the exchange notes to repay any amounts received with respect to the exchange notes or such guarantee. In the event of a finding that a fraudulent conveyance occurred, you may not receive any repayment on the exchange notes. Further, the voidance of the exchange notes or a related guarantee could result in an event of default with respect to our other debt that could result in acceleration of the payment obligations with respect to that debt.

        Although each guarantee entered into by a guarantor will contain a provision intended to limit that guarantor's liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under its guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer, this provision may not be effective to protect those guarantees from being voided under fraudulent transfer law, or may reduce that guarantor's obligation to an amount that effectively makes its guarantee worthless. In a recent Florida bankruptcy case, this kind of provision was found to be ineffective to protect guarantees. We do not know if that case will be followed if there is litigation on this point under the indenture governing the exchange notes. However, if it is followed, the risk that the guarantees will be found to be fraudulent conveyances will be significantly increased.

    Your ability to transfer the exchange notes may be limited by the absence of an active trading market, and an active trading market may not develop for the exchange notes.

        The exchange notes are an issue of securities for which there is no established trading market. We do not intend to list the exchange notes on any national or regional securities exchange or seek approval for quotation through any automated quotation system. An active trading market may not develop for the exchange notes. Subsequent to their initial issuance, the exchange notes may trade at a discount from the initial offering price of the original notes, depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for similar notes, our operating performance and financial condition and other factors.

USE OF PROCEEDS

        This exchange offer is intended to satisfy our obligations under the registration rights agreement. We will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the exchange notes. In consideration for issuing the exchange notes as described in this prospectus, we will receive the original notes in like principal amount, the form and terms of which are the substantially the same as the form and terms of the exchange notes, except as otherwise described in this prospectus. The original notes surrendered in exchange for exchange notes will be retired and canceled upon consummation of the exchange offer and cannot be reissued. Accordingly, no additional incremental debt will result from the exchange offer. We have agreed to pay all expenses incidental to the exchange offer other than commissions and concessions of any broker or dealer and certain transfer taxes and will indemnify holders of the notes, including any broker-dealers, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

        We received approximately $1,958.2 million in net proceeds in the aggregate from the offering of the original notes on June 14, 2011, after deducting fees and expenses related to the offering of the original notes. We used the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the original notes and our concurrent common stock offering and borrowings under our senior secured credit facility to fund our acquisition of ICG and to pay related fees and expenses.

On June 15, 2011, we completed our acquisition of ICG, a leading coal producer, adding 12 mining complexes in Appalachia, one complex in the Illinois Basin and one mine under development in Appalachia, along with other coal reserves not currently in development. To finance the acquisition, we sold 48.7 million shares of our common stock and issued $2.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes. We directly expensed costs related to the financing and acquisition of $104.2 million.

In the second quarter of 2010, we exchanged 68.4 million tons of coal reserves in the Illinois Basin for an additional 9% ownership interest in Knight Hawk Holdings, LLC (Knight Hawk), increasing our ownership to 42%. We recognized a pre-tax gain of $41.6 million on the transaction, representing the

DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS

Arch Coal Senior Notes Due 2016 and 2020

        We have outstanding an aggregate principal amount of $600.0 million of 8.75% Senior Notes due 2016 that were issued at an initial issue price of 97.464% of face amount. Interest is payable on the 2016 notes on February 1 and August 1 of each year. The 2016 notes are guaranteed by most of our subsidiaries, except for Arch Western Resources and its subsidiaries and Arch Receivable Company, LLC. At any time on or after August 1, 2013, we may redeem some or all of the 2016 notes. The redemption price, reflected as a percentage of the principal amount, is: 104.375% for 2016 notes redeemed between August 1, 2013 and July 31, 2014; 102.188% for 2016 notes redeemed between August 1, 2014 and July 31, 2015; and 100% for 2016 notes redeemed on or after August 1, 2015. In addition, prior to August 1, 2012, at any time and on one or more occasions, we may redeem an aggregate principal amount of 2016 notes not to exceed 35% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2016 notes outstanding with the proceeds of one or more public equity offerings, at a redemption price equal to 108.750%.

        We also have outstanding an aggregate principal amount of $500.0 million of 7.25% Senior Notes due 2020 that were issued at an initial issue price of 100.000% of face amount. Interest is payable on the 2020 notes on April 1 and October 1 of each year. The 2020 notes are guaranteed by most of our subsidiaries, except for Arch Western Resources and its subsidiaries and Arch Receivable Company, LLC.

The respective indentures under which the 2016 notes and the 2020 notes were issued contain certain restrictive covenants that limit our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional debt, sell or transfer assets and make certain investments, pay dividends and enter into transactions with affiliates.

Arch Western Senior Notes Due 2013

        Our subsidiary, Arch Western Finance LLC, has outstanding an aggregate principal amount of $450.0 million of 6.75% Senior Notes due 2013.

The Arch Western notes are guaranteed by Arch Western Resources and certain of its subsidiaries and are secured by an intercompany note from Arch Coal, Inc. to Arch Western Resources. The indenture under which the Arch Western notes were issued contains certain restrictive covenants that limit the respective abilities of Arch Western Resources and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional debt, sell or transfer assets and make certain investments. Arch Western Resources is permitted to transfer money to Arch Coal, Inc. out of available cash (as defined in the indenture governing the Arch Western notes) in the form of intercompany loans, which are repayable on demand. Such loans are evidenced by Arch Coal intercompany notes that are pledged for the benefit of the holders of the Arch Western notes. Any claim by a holder of Arch Western notes on Arch Coal, Inc. through a realization of its collateral would rank equal in right of payment with the exchange notes. At any time, Arch Western Finance LLC may redeem some or all of the Arch Western notes at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Arch Western notes to be redeemed.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

        Our secured revolving credit facility provides for borrowings of up to $2.0 billion and expires on June 14, 2016. We had borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility of $375.0 million at December 31, 2011. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at a floating rate based on LIBOR determined by reference to our leverage ratio, as calculated in accordance with the credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility (the "Credit Agreement"). Financial covenants contained in our revolving credit facility consist of a maximum leverage ratio, a maximum senior secured leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. The leverage ratio requires that we not permit the ratio of total net funded debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) at the end of any calendar quarter to EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the four quarters then ended to exceed a specified amount. The interest coverage ratio requires that we not permit the ratio of EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) at the end of any calendar quarter to the consolidated cash interest expense (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the four quarters then ended to be less than a specified amount. The senior secured leverage ratio requires that we not permit the ratio of total net funded senior secured debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) at the end of any calendar quarter to EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the four quarters then ended to exceed a specified amount. We were in compliance with all financial covenants at December 31, 2011.

of its subsidiaries, except its ownership interests in Arch Western Resources and its subsidiaries and in Arch Receivable Company, LLC.

        Our senior secured credit facility restricts our ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make investments or specified payments, give guarantees, pay dividends, make capital expenditures and merge or acquire or sell assets. In addition, certain additional covenants under our senior secured credit facility would be triggered if the unused borrowing availability were to fall below specified levels, including fixed charge coverage ratio requirements. Our senior secured credit facility contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults under other debt or hedging arrangements of Arch Coal, Inc. or any of the guarantors, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, judgment defaults and the failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the agreement to be in full force and effect.

Accounts Receivable Securitization

        We are party to a $250.0 million accounts receivable securitization program whereby eligible trade receivables are sold, without recourse, to a multi-seller, asset-backed commercial paper conduit. The credit facility supporting the borrowings under the program is subject to renewal annually and expires December 11, 2012. Under the terms of the program, eligible trade receivables consist of trade receivables generated by our operating subsidiaries. Actual borrowing capacity is based on the allowable amounts of accounts receivable as defined under the terms of the agreement governing the program. We had outstanding borrowings of $106.3 million under the program at December 31, 2011 and had no borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2010. We had letters of credit outstanding under the securitization program of $96.6 million as of December 31, 2011. Although the participants in the program bear the risk of non-payment of purchased receivables, we have agreed to indemnify the participants with respect to various matters. The participants under the program will be entitled to receive payments reflecting a specified discount on amounts funded under the program, including drawings under letters of credit, calculated on the basis of the base rate or commercial paper rate, as applicable. We pay facility fees, program fees and letter of credit fees (based on amounts of outstanding letters of credit) at rates that vary with our leverage ratio. Under the program, we are subject to certain affirmative, negative and financial covenants customary for financings of this type, including restrictions related to, among other things, liens, payments, merger or consolidation and amendments to the agreements underlying the receivables pool. A termination event would permit the administrator to terminate the program and enforce any and all rights, subject to cure provisions, where applicable. Additionally, the program contains cross-default provisions, which would allow the administrator to terminate the program in the event of non-payment of other material indebtedness when due and any other event which results in the acceleration of the maturity of material indebtedness.

THE EXCHANGE OFFER

        In connection with the issuance of the original notes, we and the guarantors entered into a registration rights agreement dated June 14, 2011 with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, PNC Capital Markets LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, RBS Securities Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., acting as the representative of the initial purchasers of the original notes. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) file a registration statement to register an offer to exchange the original notes for new notes registered under the Securities Act having substantially the same terms as the original notes and evidencing the same indebtedness as the original notes and (ii) cause the registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act. We also agreed to file and keep effective a shelf registration statement to cover resales of the original notes under certain circumstances.

        We and the guarantors have agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the exchange offer to be completed within 365 days after the issuance of the original notes. If we fail to satisfy our registration obligations under the registration rights agreement, we will be required to pay additional interest to the holders of the original notes under certain circumstances. In the event that the exchange offer has not been consummated within 365 days after the issuance of the original notes, the interest rate on the original notes will be increased by 0.25% per annum for the first 90 days immediately following that date, and by an additional 0.25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day-period, until the exchange offer has been consummated; provided, however, that the additional interest rate on the notes may not exceed at any one time in the aggregate 1.00% per annum. Following the consummation of the exchange offer, the accrual of any applicable additional interest shall cease.

        Our obligations under the registration rights agreement to register an exchange offer will terminate upon the completion of the exchange offer. However, under certain limited circumstances specified in the registration rights agreement, we may be required to file a shelf registration statement for a continuous offer in connection with the original notes. We currently do not anticipate that we will register any resales of original notes under the Securities Act.

        The following summary of certain provisions of the registration rights agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the registration rights agreement, a copy of which may be obtained as described under "Where You Can Find More Information." The registration rights agreement is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

        The exchange offer will permit eligible holders of original notes to exchange their original notes for exchange notes with substantially identical terms, except that:

    the exchange notes generally will not be subject to the restrictions on transfer applicable to the original notes or bear restrictive legends;

    the exchange notes will not be entitled to registration rights; and

    the exchange notes will not have the right to earn additional interest under circumstances relating to our registration obligations.

The exchange notes will be issued under, and will be entitled to the benefits of, the same indenture that governs the original notes and will evidence the same debt as the original notes. The new 2019 notes and the original 2019 notes that remain outstanding after the consummation of the exchange offer will be treated as a single series of notes under the indenture governing the original notes and the exchange notes. Similarly, the new 2021 notes and the original 2021 notes that remain outstanding after the consummation of the exchange offer will be treated as a single series of notes under the indenture governing the original notes and the exchange notes.

Table of Contents

General

        We will issue exchange notes for tendered and accepted original notes promptly after expiration of the exchange offer. For each original note surrendered to us pursuant to the exchange offer, the holder of such original note will receive an exchange note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered original note. Interest on each exchange note will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the original note surrendered in exchange therefor.

        In connection with the issuance of the original notes, we arranged for the original notes to be issued in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee), as depositary. The global certificates representing the original notes were deposited with UMB Bank National Association, as trustee with respect to the original notes, as custodian for DTC. The exchange notes will also be issued in the form of global notes registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, as depositary, and each beneficial owner's interest in the exchange notes will be transferable in book-entry form through DTC. The global certificates representing the exchange notes will be deposited with UMB Bank National Association, as trustee with respect to the exchange notes, as custodian for DTC.

        Holders of original notes do not have any appraisal or dissenters' rights in connection with the exchange offer. Original notes which are not tendered for exchange or are tendered but not accepted in connection with the exchange offer because they have not been validly tendered will remain outstanding and be entitled to the benefits of the indenture under which they were issued, including accrual of interest, but, subject to a limited exception, will not be entitled to any registration rights under the registration rights agreement. See "—Consequences of Failure to Tender."

        We will be deemed to have accepted validly tendered original notes when and if we have given written notice to the exchange agent of our acceptance. The exchange agent will act as agent for the tendering holders for the purpose of receiving the exchange notes from us. If any tendered original notes are not accepted for exchange because of an invalid tender, the occurrence of other events described in this prospectus or otherwise, we will return the certificates for any unaccepted original notes, at our expense, to the tendering holder promptly upon the expiration or termination of the exchange offer. In the case of any such original notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent's account at DTC, according to the procedures described in this prospectus, those original notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC, for original notes, as soon as practicable after rejection of the tender or termination of the exchange offer.

        The exchange offer is not being made to, nor will we accept tenders for exchange from, holders of the original notes in any jurisdiction in which the exchange offer or the acceptance of it would not be in compliance with the securities or blue sky laws of that jurisdiction.

Eligibility; Transferability

        Under existing interpretations of the Securities Act by the staff of the SEC contained in several no-action letters to third parties that are not related to us, and subject to the immediately following sentence, we believe that the exchange notes will generally be freely transferable by holders after the exchange offer without further compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act (subject to certain representations required to be made by each holder of original, as set forth under "—Procedures for Tendering"). However, any holder of original notes who:

    is our "affiliate," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act;

    is not acquiring the exchange notes in the exchange offer in the ordinary course of its business;

    is engaged in or intends to engage in, or has an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution, as defined in the Securities Act, of the exchange notes it will receive in the exchange offer;

29


Table of Contents

    is holding original notes that have, or are reasonably likely to have, the status of an unsold allotment in the initial offering of original notes; or

    is acting on behalf of a person who, to its knowledge, falls into one of the above categories,

will not be able to rely on the interpretations of the staff of the SEC, will not be permitted to tender original notes in the exchange offer and, in the absence of any exemption, must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of the exchange notes.

        Our belief that transfers of exchange notes would be permitted without registration or prospectus delivery under the conditions described above is based on SEC interpretations given to unrelated issuers in similar exchange offers. We cannot assure you that the SEC would make a similar interpretation with respect to this exchange offer. We do not intend to seek our own interpretation from the SEC with respect to this exchange offer. We will not be responsible for or indemnify you against any liability you may incur under the Securities Act in connection with any transfer of exchange notes.

        Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes that were acquired by the broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activity must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. See "Plan of Distribution."

Expiration of the Exchange Offer; Extensions; Amendments

        The exchange offer will expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of                  , unless we extend the exchange offer. To extend the exchange offer, we will notify the exchange agent and each registered holder of any extension before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date. We reserve the right to extend the exchange offer, delay accepting any tendered original notes or, if any of the conditions described below under the heading "—Conditions" have not been satisfied, to terminate the exchange offer. We do not currently intend to extend the expiration of the exchange offer. We will delay acceptance only due to an extension of the exchange offer. We also reserve the right to amend the terms of the exchange offer in any manner. We will give written notice of such delay, extension, termination or amendment to the exchange agent. If we amend the exchange offer in a manner that we consider material, we will disclose such amendment by means of a prospectus supplement, and we will extend the exchange offer to the extent required under applicable securities laws. If we determine to make a public announcement of any delay, extension, amendment or termination of the exchange offer, we will do so by making a timely release through an appropriate news agency. If we delay accepting any original notes or terminate the exchange offer, we promptly will pay the consideration offered, or return any original notes deposited, pursuant to the exchange offer as required by Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act.

Conditions

        Notwithstanding any other term of the exchange offer, we will not be required to accept for exchange, or issue any exchange notes for, any original notes, and may terminate or amend the exchange offer before the expiration of the exchange offer, if:

    we determine that the exchange offer violates any law, statute, rule, regulation or interpretation by the staff of the SEC or any order of any governmental agency or court of competent jurisdiction; or

    any action or proceeding is instituted or threatened in any court or by or before any governmental agency relating to the exchange offer which, in our judgment, could reasonably be expected to impair our ability to proceed with the exchange offer.

30


Table of Contents

        The conditions listed above are for our sole benefit and may be asserted by us regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any of these conditions. We may waive these conditions in our discretion, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to the expiration date. The failure by us at any time to exercise any of the above rights shall not be considered a waiver of such right, and such right shall be considered an ongoing right which may be asserted at any time and from time to time.

        In addition, we will not accept for exchange any original notes tendered, and no exchange notes will be issued in exchange for those original notes, if at any time any stop order is threatened or issued with respect to the registration statement for the exchange offer and the exchange notes or with respect to the qualification of the indenture governing the exchange notes under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture Act"). In any such event, we must use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any stop order as soon as practicable.

        In addition, we will not be obligated to accept for exchange the original notes of any holder that has not made to us the representations described under "—Eligibility; Transferability" and "Plan of Distribution."

Procedures for Tendering

    Delivery of Letter of Transmittal and Original Notes

        Only a holder of record of original notes may tender original notes in the exchange offer. In order to tender original notes in the exchange offer, a holder of original notes must deliver a letter of transmittal and deliver the original notes to the exchange agent. Delivery of the original notes may be made by book-entry transfer to the exchange agent's account at DTC.

        Specifically, to accept the exchange offer by delivery of a letter of transmittal and original notes, a holder must:

    complete, sign and date the letter of transmittal, or a facsimile of the letter of transmittal, have the signature on the letter of transmittal guaranteed if the letter of transmittal so requires and deliver the letter of transmittal or facsimile to the exchange agent, including all other required documents at the address set forth below under "—Exchange Agent", prior to the expiration of the exchange offer; and

    if a holder holds original notes in book-entry form, deliver the original notes so that the exchange agent receives timely confirmation of book-entry transfer of the original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC prior to expiration of the exchange offer.

        If the applicable letter of transmittal is signed by the record holder(s) of the original notes tendered, the signature must correspond with the name(s) written on the face of the original notes without alteration, enlargement or any change whatsoever. If the applicable letter of transmittal is signed by a participant in DTC, the signature must correspond with the name as it appears on the security position listing as the holder of the original notes.

        A signature on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an eligible guarantor institution. Eligible guarantor institutions include banks, brokers, dealers, municipal securities dealers, municipal securities brokers, government securities dealers, government securities brokers, credit unions, national securities exchanges, registered securities associations, clearing agencies and savings associations. The signature need not be guaranteed by an eligible guarantor institution if the original notes are tendered:

    by a registered holder which has not completed the box entitled "Special Issuance Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions" on the letter of transmittal; or

    for the account of an eligible institution.

31


Table of Contents

        If the letter of transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder of any original notes, the original notes must be endorsed or accompanied by a properly completed bond power. The bond power must be signed by the registered holder as the registered holder's name appears on the original notes, and an eligible guarantor institution must guarantee the signature on the bond power.

        If the letter of transmittal or any original notes or bond powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, these persons should so indicate when signing. Unless we waive this requirement, they should also submit evidence satisfactory to us of their authority to deliver the letter of transmittal.

    Automated Tender Offer Program

        If a holder is a participant in DTC and is transferring its original notes in book-entry form through DTC, then the exchange agent and DTC have confirmed that such a holder may utilize the DTC ATOP procedures to tender original notes in lieu of delivering a letter of transmittal.

        To use this alternative procedure:

    a holder may instruct DTC, in accordance with the ATOP system, to transmit on its behalf a computer-generated message to the exchange agent in which the holder of the original notes acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the terms of the letter of transmittal, which computer-generated message must be received by the exchange agent prior to 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the expiration date; and

    the exchange agent must receive, before expiration of the exchange offer, timely confirmation of book-entry transfer of original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC, according to the procedure for book-entry transfer described below.

        However, the exchange for any original notes tendered through the ATOP system will only be made after a book-entry confirmation of a book-entry transfer of original notes into the exchange agent's account and timely receipt by the exchange agent of an agent's message and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal. The term "agent's message" means a message, transmitted by DTC and received by the exchange agent and forming part of a book-entry confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from a participant tendering original notes that are the subject of the book-entry confirmation that the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the letter of transmittal, and that we may enforce that agreement against the participant.

    Additional Terms and Procedures

        Regardless of whether a holder delivers a letter of transmittal or uses the ATOP system, a tender by a holder that is not validly withdrawn before expiration of the exchange offer will constitute an agreement between that holder and us in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus and in the letter of transmittal. If a holder completing a letter of transmittal tenders less than all of the original notes held by the holder, the tendering holder should fill in the applicable box of the letter of transmittal. The full amount of original notes delivered to the exchange agent will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated.

        The method of delivery of original notes and the letter of transmittal and all other required documents to the exchange agent is at the election and sole risk of the holder. Instead of delivery by mail, a holder should use an overnight or hand delivery service. In all cases, a holder should allow for sufficient time to ensure delivery to the exchange agent before the expiration of the exchange offer. A holder may request its broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or nominee to effect these

32


Table of Contents

transactions for the holder. A holder should send any note, letter of transmittal or other required document only to the exchange agent and not directly to us.

        Any beneficial owner whose original notes are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and who wishes to tender original notes in the exchange offer should contact the applicable registered holder promptly and instruct it to tender on the beneficial owner's behalf. If the beneficial owner wishes to tender on its own behalf, it must, prior to completing and executing the letter of transmittal and delivering its original notes, either:

    make appropriate arrangements to register ownership of the original notes in the owner's name; or

    obtain a properly completed bond power from the registered holder of original notes.

A transfer of registered ownership may take considerable time and may not be completed prior to the expiration of the exchange offer.

        We will determine in our sole discretion all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt), acceptance and withdrawal of the tendered original notes. Our determination will be final and binding. We reserve the absolute right to reject any original notes not properly tendered or any original notes the acceptance of which would, in the opinion of our counsel, be unlawful. We also reserve the right to waive any defects, irregularities or conditions of tender as to particular original notes. Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the exchange offer, including the instructions in the letter of transmittal, will be final and binding on all parties.

        Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of original notes must be cured within the time that we determine. Although we intend to notify holders of defects or irregularities with respect to tenders of original notes to the extent practicable, neither we, the exchange agent nor any other person will incur any liability for failure to give such notification. Tenders of original notes will not be deemed made until those defects or irregularities have been cured or waived. Any original notes received by the exchange agent that are not properly tendered and as to which the defects or irregularities have not been cured or waived will be returned by the exchange agent without cost to the tendering holder, unless otherwise provided in the letter of transmittal, as soon as practicable following the expiration date.

        In all cases, we will issue exchange notes for original notes that we have accepted for exchange under the exchange offer only after the exchange agent timely receives:

    a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and all other required documents or a properly transmitted agent's message through the ATOP system; and

    the original notes or a book-entry confirmation that the original notes have been transferred into the exchange agent's account at DTC.

        Holders should receive copies of the applicable letter of transmittal with the prospectus. A holder may obtain copies of the applicable letter of transmittal for the original notes from the exchange agent by contacting the exchange agent by one of the means set forth below under "—Exchange Agent."

        By signing the letter of transmittal, or causing DTC to transmit an agent's message to the exchange agent through the ATOP system, each tendering holder of original notes will, among other things, make the representations in the letter of transmittal described under "—Eligibility; Transferability."

Methods of Delivery of Original notes

        The exchange agent will make a request to establish an account with respect to the original notes at DTC for purposes of the exchange offer within three business days after the date of this prospectus.

A holder whose notes are not held in certificated form must deliver the notes by making a book-entry transfer of the notes into this account, which must be received before the expiration of the exchange offer.

        Except as otherwise provided in this prospectus, holders of original notes may withdraw their tenders at any time before expiration of the exchange offer. For a withdrawal to be effective, the exchange agent must receive a computer-generated notice of withdrawal transmitted by DTC on behalf of the holder in accordance with the standard operating procedures of DTC, or a written notice of withdrawal, which may be by telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter, delivered to the exchange agent by one of the means described below under "—Exchange Agent."

        Any valid notice of withdrawal must:

    specify the name of the person having tendered the original notes to be withdrawn;

    identify the original notes to be withdrawn (including the certificate number(s) of the original notes physically delivered) and principal amount of such original notes, or, in the case of original notes transferred by book-entry transfer, the name of the account at DTC; and

    be signed by the holder in the same manner as the original signature on the letter of transmittal by which such original notes were tendered, with any required signature guarantees, or be accompanied by documents of transfer sufficient to have the trustee with respect to the original notes register the transfer of such original notes into the name of the person withdrawing the tender.

        If original notes have been tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer described above, any valid notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawn original notes and otherwise comply with the procedures of the facility.

        We will determine all questions as to the validity, form and eligibility, including time of receipt, of notices of withdrawal, and our determination shall be final and binding on all parties. We will deem any original notes so withdrawn not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offer. We will return any original notes that have been tendered for exchange but that are not exchanged for any reason to their holder without cost to the holder. In the case of original notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent's account at DTC, according to the procedures described above, those original notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC, for original notes, as soon as practicable after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offer. You may retender properly withdrawn original notes by following one of the procedures described under "—Procedures for Tendering" above at any time before expiration of the exchange offer.

Fees and Expenses

        We will bear the expenses of soliciting tenders. The principal solicitation is being made by mail. However, we may make additional solicitations by telegraph, telephone or in person by our officers and regular employees and those of our affiliates.

        We have not retained any dealer-manager in connection with the exchange offer and will not make any payments to broker-dealers or others soliciting acceptances of the exchange offer. We shall, however, pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and reimburse it for its related reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

        We will pay the cash expenses to be incurred in connection with the exchange offer, including the following:

    SEC registration fees;

    fees and expenses of the exchange agent and trustee;

    our accounting and legal fees; and

    our printing and mailing costs.

Transfer Taxes

        We will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the exchange of original notes under the exchange offer, except as follows. The tendering holder will be required to pay any transfer taxes, whether imposed on the registered holder or any other person, if:

    exchange notes are to be delivered to, or issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of the original notes so exchanged;

    tendered original notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing the letter of transmittal; or

    a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of original notes under the exchange offer.

        If satisfactory evidence of payment of transfer taxes is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of any transfer taxes will be billed to the tendering holder.

Table of Contents

Accounting Treatment

        We will record the exchange notes at the same carrying value as the original notes as reflected in our accounting records on the date of the exchange. Accordingly, we will not recognize any gain or loss for accounting purposes upon completion of the exchange offer.

Consequences of Failure to Tender

        All untendered original notes will remain subject to the restrictions on transfer provided for in the original notes and in the indenture governing the original notes. Generally, the original notes that are not exchanged for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer will remain restricted securities. Accordingly, such original notes may be resold only:

    to us (upon redemption thereof or otherwise);

    pursuant to a registration statement which has been declared effective under the Securities Act;

    for so long as the original notes are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule l44A, to a person the holder of the original notes and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believes is a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined in Rule l44A, that purchases for its own account or for the account of another qualified institutional buyer, in each case to whom notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule l44A; or

    pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (in which case we and the trustee shall have the right to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications and/or other information satisfactory to us and the trustee),

in each case subject to compliance with any applicable foreign, state or other securities laws.

        Upon completion of the exchange offer, due to the restrictions on transfer of the original notes and the absence of such restrictions applicable to the exchange notes, it is likely that the market, if any, for original notes will be relatively less liquid than the market for exchange notes. Consequently, holders of original notes who do not participate in the exchange offer could experience significant diminution in the value of their original notes, compared to the value of the exchange notes. The holders of original notes not tendered will have no further registration rights, except that, under limited circumstances, we may be required to file a shelf registration statement for a continuous offer of original notes. We currently do not anticipate that we will register any resales of original notes under the Securities Act.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EXCHANGE NOTES

        Arch Coal issued the original notes and will issue the exchange notes under an Indenture dated as of June 14, 2011 (the "Indenture"), among Arch Coal, the Guarantors and UMB Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The 2019 Notes and the 2021 Notes are each referred to in this "Description of the Exchange Notes") as a "series." The Indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The Indenture complies with the Trust Indenture Act. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to certain provisions of the Trust Indenture Act.

        On June 14, 2011, Arch Coal issued $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of old 2019 notes and $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of old 2021 notes under the Indenture. The terms of the exchange notes will be identical in all material respects to the terms of the original notes, except for certain transfer restrictions and registration and other rights relating to the exchange of the original notes for exchange notes. UMB Bank National Association, as trustee, will authenticate and deliver exchange notes for original issue in exchange for a like principal amount of original notes of the same series. The new 2019 notes and the old 2019 notes that remain outstanding after the consummation of the exchange offer will be treated as a single series of notes under the Indenture, including for purposes of determining whether the required percentage of holders have given their approval or consent to an amendment or waiver or joined in directing the trustee to take certain actions on behalf of all holders. Similarly, the new 2021 notes and the old 2021 notes that remain outstanding after the consummation of the exchange offer will be treated as a single series of notes under the Indenture. Accordingly, all references in this "Description of the Exchange Notes" to specified percentages in aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Notes shall be deemed to mean at any time after the exchange offer is consummated that percentage in aggregate principal amount of the old 2019 notes and the new 2019 notes or the old 2021 notes and the new 2021 notes, as the case may be, then outstanding. For purposes of this description, references to the "Notes" include the exchange notes and the original notes that remain outstanding after the consummation of the exchange offer.

        You can find the definitions of certain terms used in this "Description of the Exchange Notes" under the subheading "—Certain Definitions." In this "Description of the Exchange Notes," the term "Arch Coal" refers only to Arch Coal, Inc. and not to any of its subsidiaries.

        You are encouraged to read the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement because they, and not this "Description of the Exchange Notes"), define your rights as a holder of the Notes, including your registration rights. Copies of the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement are available upon request to Arch Coal at the address indicated under "Where You Can Find More Information."

Brief Description of the Notes and the Guarantees

    The Notes

        The Notes will:

    be Arch Coal's general unsecured obligations;

    be initially issued in the case of the 2019 Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000.0 million and in the case of the 2021 Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000.0 million, in both cases subject to Arch Coal's ability to issue additional Notes under certain circumstances;

    rank equally in right of payment with any and all of Arch Coal's existing and future Debt that is not subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, including the Arch Coal Senior Notes;

37


Table of Contents

    be structurally subordinated to all existing and future Debt of Subsidiaries of Arch Coal that do not provide Note Guarantees, including the Arch Western Notes and the accounts receivable securitization program;

    be effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured Debt of Arch Coal to the extent of the assets securing such Indebtedness, including Debt under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement;

    rank senior in right of payment with any and all of Arch Coal's future Debt that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes; and

    be initially guaranteed on a senior basis by the Subsidiaries of Arch Coal that guarantee the repayment of Debt under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

    The Note Guarantees

        Each Note Guarantee will:

    be a general unsecured obligation of the Guarantor that granted such Note Guarantee;

    be effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured Debt of such Guarantor to the extent of the assets securing such Debt, including Debt of the Guarantors with respect to the Credit Facilities;

    rank equally in right of payment with any and all of such Guarantor's existing and future Debt that is not subordinated in right of payment to its Note Guarantee, including its Guarantee of the Arch Coal Senior Notes; and

    rank senior in right of payment to any and all of such Guarantor's future Debt that is subordinated in right of payment to its Note Guarantee.

    General

        As of December 31, 2011:

    Arch Coal had $4.0 billion of indebtedness outstanding (including the original notes and excluding an intercompany note in an outstanding amount of $1.7 billion which is held by Arch Western and pledged for the benefit of the holders of the Arch Western Notes);

    on a combined basis, the Guarantors had total outstanding indebtedness of $4.6 million, excluding the Note Guarantees, Guarantees of the Arch Coal Senior Notes and Guarantees under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement; and

    on a combined basis, the Subsidiaries that will not guarantee the Notes had (i) total Debt of $557.3 million, consisting of the Arch Western Notes and $106.3 million of borrowings under our accounts receivable securitization program and excluding $225.0 million owed to Arch Coal pursuant to an intercompany note, (ii) $1.3 billion of total liabilities, excluding $225.0 million owed to Arch Coal pursuant to an intercompany note, and (iii) total assets of approximately $2.2 billion, excluding the intercompany note in the outstanding amount of $1.7 billion which is held by Arch Western and pledged for the benefit of the holders of the Arch Western Notes.

        Not all of Arch Coal's Subsidiaries will guarantee the Notes. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of these non-guarantor Subsidiaries, the non-guarantor Subsidiaries will be required to repay financial and trade creditors before distributing any assets to Arch Coal or a Guarantor. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the non-guarantor Subsidiaries generated approximately 53% of Arch Coal's consolidated revenues.

38


Table of Contents

        As of the date of this prospectus, substantially all of Arch Coal's Subsidiaries are "Restricted Subsidiaries." However, under the circumstances described below under the caption "—Certain Covenants—Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries," Arch Coal is permitted to designate certain of its Subsidiaries as "Unrestricted Subsidiaries." Arch Coal's Unrestricted Subsidiaries are not subject to any of the restrictive covenants in the Indenture. Arch Coal's Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not guarantee the Notes.

    Holding Company Structure

        Arch Coal is a holding company for its Subsidiaries and has no material operations of its own and only limited assets. Accordingly, Arch Coal is dependent upon the distribution of the earnings of its Subsidiaries, whether in the form of dividends, advances or payments on account of intercompany obligations, to service its debt obligations.

Principal, Maturity and Interest

        Arch Coal is issuing up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of new 2019 notes and up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of new 2021 notes in this exchange offer. In addition, subject to compliance with the limitation described under "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Debt," Arch Coal may in the future issue an unlimited principal amount of additional Notes of each series from time to time after this exchange offer under the same Indenture (the "Additional Notes") without the consent of the Holders of such series of Notes. Any Additional Notes that Arch Coal issues in the future will be identical in all respects to the applicable series of Notes and will form a single series with the applicable series of Notes, except that Additional Notes issued in the future will have different issuance dates, may have different issuance prices and may not be fungible for trading purposes with the applicable series of Notes. Arch Coal will issue Notes only in fully registered form without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

        The 2019 Notes will mature on June 15, 2019, and the 2021 Notes will mature on June 15, 2021.

        The 2019 Notes will bear interest at the rate of 7.000% per year, and the 2021 Notes will bear interest at the rate of 7.250% per year. Interest on each series of the Notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15, commencing on December 15, 2011. Arch Coal will pay interest to those persons who were Holders of record on the June 1 or December 1 immediately preceding each interest payment date. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the date of the last interest payment date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

Note Guarantees

        The Notes will initially be guaranteed by each Restricted Subsidiary of Arch Coal that guarantees Debt under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or any other capital markets Debt. The Guarantors will consist of substantially all of Arch Coal's Subsidiaries other than Arch Western and its Subsidiaries and Arch Receivable Company LLC. The Indenture will also require that each existing and future Restricted Subsidiary that is not otherwise a Guarantor that Guarantees or secures the payment of any other Debt of Arch Coal or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement will be required to Guarantee the Notes as described below under the caption "—Certain Covenants—Guarantors by Restricted Subsidiaries."

        Each of the Guarantors will unconditionally guarantee, on a joint and several basis with all other Guarantors, all of Arch Coal's obligations under the Notes, including its obligations to pay principal, interest, and premium, if any, with respect to the Notes. The Note Guarantees will be general unsecured obligations of the Guarantors and rank pari passu with all existing and future Debt of the Guarantors that is not, by its terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantees. The

39


Table of Contents

obligations of each Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount which, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under the Indenture, will result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Exchange Notes—Federal and state fraudulent conveyance laws may permit a court to void the exchange notes and the related guarantees, and, if that occurs, you may not receive any payments on the exchange notes." Each Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under a Note Guarantee will be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor in a pro rata amount, based on the net assets of each Guarantor determined in accordance with GAAP. Except as provided in "Certain Covenants—Limitation on Asset Sales," Arch Coal will not be restricted from selling or otherwise disposing of any of the Guarantors.

        The Indenture provides that:

              (i)  in the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor, after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary, such Guarantor will be released and relieved of any obligations under its Guarantee; provided that the Net Available Cash from such sale or other disposition is applied in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture. See "Certain Covenants—Limitation on Asset Sales;"

             (ii)  upon the release or discharge of the Guarantee of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or the Guarantee of a Guarantor that resulted in the creation of the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such other Guarantee, such Guarantor will be released and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee;

            (iii)  upon the designation of any Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, such Guarantor will be released and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee; and

            (iv)  upon the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture as described under "—Satisfaction and Discharge," or upon the defeasance of the Indenture as described under "—Defeasance," each Guarantor will be released and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee.

Any such redemption shall be made within 90 days after the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

        At any time prior to June 15, 2015, Arch Coal may, at its option, on one or more occasions redeem all or any portion of the 2019 Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes redeemed plus the 2019 Notes Applicable Premium as of the date of redemption, and, without duplication, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

Sinking Fund; Open Market Purchases

        There will be no mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments for the Notes. Arch Coal may at any time and from time to time purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise.

Repurchase at the Option of Holders Upon a Change of Control

        Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, unless Arch Coal has previously or concurrently mailed a redemption notice with respect to all outstanding Notes as described under "—Optional Redemption," each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require Arch Coal to repurchase all or any part of such Holder's Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the "Change of Control Offer") at a purchase price (the "Change of Control Purchase Price") equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). If the repurchase date is after a record date and on or before the relevant interest payment date, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the person or entity in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on that record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Notes shall be subject to repurchase.

        Within 30 days following any Change of Control, Arch Coal shall:

            (a)   cause a notice of the Change of Control Offer to be sent at least once to the Dow Jones News Service or similar business news service in the United States; and

            (b)   send or cause to be sent, by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes, at such Holder's address appearing in the Security Register, a notice stating:

              (1)   that a Change of Control has occurred and a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to the covenant entitled "Repurchase at the Option of Holders Upon a Change of Control" and that all Notes properly tendered will be accepted for payment;

              (2)   the Change of Control Purchase Price and the repurchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a business day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed; and

              (3)   the procedures that Holders of Notes must follow in order to tender their Notes (or portions thereof) for payment, and the procedures that Holders of Notes must follow in order to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment.

        Arch Coal will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by Arch Coal and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of

42


Table of Contents

Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

        With respect to the Notes, if Holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a series validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and Arch Coal, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of Arch Coal as described above, purchases all of the Notes of a series validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, Arch Coal or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all Notes of the series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to the applicable Change of Control Purchase Price plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Purchase Price, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to the date of redemption.

        Arch Coal will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this covenant, Arch Coal will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this covenant by virtue of such compliance.

        Arch Coal has no present intention to engage in a transaction involving a Change of Control, although it is possible that it could decide to do so in the future. Subject to certain covenants described below, Arch Coal could, in the future, enter into certain transactions, including acquisitions, refinancings or other recapitalizations, that would not constitute a Change of Control under the Indenture, but that could increase the amount of debt outstanding at such time or otherwise affect its capital structure or credit ratings.

        The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the sale, transfer, assignment, lease, conveyance or other disposition of "all or substantially all" of the Property of Arch Coal and its Restricted Subsidiaries, considered as a whole. Although there is a developing body of case law interpreting the phrase "substantially all," there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, if Arch Coal and its Restricted Subsidiaries, considered as a whole, dispose of less than all of this Property by any of the means described above, the ability of a Holder of Notes to require Arch Coal to repurchase its Notes may be uncertain. In such a case, Holders of the Notes may not be able to resolve this uncertainty without resorting to legal action. In addition, Holders of Notes may not be entitled to require Arch Coal to repurchase their Notes in certain circumstances involving a significant change in the composition of the Board of Directors of Arch Coal, including in connection with a proxy contest, where Arch Coal's Board of Directors does not endorse a dissident slate of directors but approves them for purposes of the Indenture.

        The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides that the debt thereunder be repaid upon the occurrence of certain events that would constitute a change of control thereunder. Future Debt of Arch Coal may contain similar provisions. In addition, Arch Coal's ability to pay cash to Holders of Notes upon a repurchase may be limited by Arch Coal's then existing financial resources. Arch Coal cannot assure you that sufficient funds will be available when necessary to make any required repurchases. Arch Coal's failure to repurchase Notes in connection with a Change of Control would result in a default under the Indenture. Such a default could, in turn, constitute a default under other debt of Arch Coal and its Subsidiaries. Arch Coal's obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes of a series as a result of a Change of Control may be waived or modified at any time prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of the applicable series. See "—Amendments and Waivers."

Certain Covenants

        Covenant Termination.    Set forth below are summaries of certain covenants that are contained in the Indenture. Upon the first date that:

            (a)   the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies; and

            (b)   no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture,

Arch Coal and its Restricted Subsidiaries will cease to be subject to the following provisions of the Indenture:

    "—Limitation on Debt;"

    "—Limitation on Restricted Payments;"

        As a result, the Notes will be entitled to substantially less protection from and after the date of termination of the covenants.

            (e)   Debt of Arch Coal owing to and held by any Restricted Subsidiary and Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary owing to and held by Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that any subsequent issue or transfer of Capital Stock that results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of any such Debt (except the Arch Coal Promissory Notes, to Arch Coal or a Restricted Subsidiary or any pledge of such Debt constituting a Permitted Lien) shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute the Incurrence of such Debt by the issuer thereof;

            (f)    Debt under Interest Rate Agreements entered into by Arch Coal or a Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business;

            (g)   Debt under Currency Exchange Protection Agreements entered into by Arch Coal or a Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business;

            (j)    Debt of Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary under one or more unsecured commercial paper facilities in an aggregate amount pursuant to this clause (j) (including all Permitted Refinancing Debt Incurred and then outstanding in respect of Debt previously Incurred pursuant to this clause (j)) not to exceed $150.0 million at any one time outstanding;

            (k)   Debt of Arch Coal or a Restricted Subsidiary outstanding on the Issue Date not otherwise described in clauses (a) through (j) above or (l) through (s) below, including the Arch Coal Senior Notes and the related Guarantees thereof;

            (p)   Debt Incurred by Arch Coal or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business, provided, however, that such Debt is extinguished within five business days of its Incurrence;

            (q)   Debt Incurred by Arch Coal to the extent that the net proceeds thereof are promptly deposited to defease or to satisfy and discharge the Notes;

            (s)   Debt of Persons that are acquired by Arch Coal or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or merged into a Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the Indenture; provided, however, that such Debt is not Incurred in contemplation of such acquisition or merger or to provide all or a portion of the funds or credit support required to consummate such acquisition or merger; provided further, that, after giving effect to such acquisition and the Incurrence of such Debt, (x) Arch Coal would be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt pursuant to clause (1) of the first paragraph of this covenant or (y) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of Arch Coal and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be equal to or greater than immediately prior to such acquisition or merger; or

            (t)    Debt of Foreign Subsidiaries of Arch Coal in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any one time not to exceed the greater of (1) $500.0 million and (2) 5.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this covenant, accrual of interest, accretion or amortization of original issue discount and the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Debt, will be deemed not to be an Incurrence of Debt for purposes of this covenant.

        For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Debt, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Debt denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Debt was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Debt is Incurred to refinance other Debt denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Debt does not exceed the principal amount of such Debt being refinanced, plus the amount of any reasonable premium (including reasonable tender premiums), defeasance costs and any reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with the issuance of such new Debt.

        The principal amount of any Debt Incurred to refinance other Debt, if Incurred in a different currency from the Debt being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Debt is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

        For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant in the event that an item of Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (a) through (t) above or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to clause (1) of the first paragraph of this covenant, Arch Coal shall, in its sole discretion, classify, and may later reclassify, such item of Debt in any manner that complies with this covenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Debt under the Amended

and Restated Credit Agreement outstanding on the Issue Date is deemed to have been Incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (a) of the definition of Permitted Debt.

        Limitation on Restricted Payments.    Arch Coal shall not make, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to make, directly or indirectly, any Restricted Payment if at the time of, and after giving effect to, such proposed Restricted Payment,

            (a)   a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

            (b)   Arch Coal could not Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt pursuant to clause (1) of the first paragraph of the covenant described under "—Limitation on Debt;" or

            (c)   the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments declared or made since the Issue Date (the amount of any Restricted Payment, if made other than in cash, to be based upon Fair Market Value at the time of such Restricted Payment) would exceed an amount equal to the sum of:

              (1)   50% of the aggregate amount of Consolidated Net Income of Arch Coal accrued during the period (treated as one accounting period) from July 1, 2010 to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or if the aggregate amount of Consolidated Net Income of Arch Coal for such period shall be a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit), plus

              (2)   100% of the Capital Stock Sale Proceeds, plus

              (3)   the sum of:

                (A)  the aggregate net cash proceeds received by Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary from the issuance or sale after the Issue Date of convertible or exchangeable Debt that has been converted into or exchanged for Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of Arch Coal, and

                (B)  the aggregate net cash proceeds received by Arch Coal from the issuance and sale after the Issue Date of Debt of Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary that has been converted or exchanged for Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of Arch Coal,

              excluding, in the case of clause (A) or (B):

                  (x)   any such Debt issued or sold to Arch Coal or a Subsidiary of Arch Coal or an employee stock ownership plan or trust established by Arch Coal or any such Subsidiary for the benefit of their employees, and

                  (y)   the aggregate amount of any cash or other Property distributed by Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary upon any such conversion or exchange;

            plus

              (4)   an amount equal to the sum of:

                (A)  the net reduction in Investments in any Person other than Arch Coal or a Restricted Subsidiary resulting from dividends, repayments of loans or advances or other transfers of Property, in each case to Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary from such Person, and

                (B)  the portion (proportionate to Arch Coal's equity interest in such Unrestricted Subsidiary) of the Fair Market Value of the net assets of an Unrestricted Subsidiary of Arch Coal at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary;

47


Table of Contents

provided, however, that the foregoing sum shall not exceed, in the case of any Person, the amount of Investments previously made (and treated as a Restricted Payment) by Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Person.

        As of December 31, 2011, $114.5 million was available to make Restricted Payments pursuant to clause (c) of the preceding paragraph.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, Arch Coal may:

            (a)   pay dividends on its Capital Stock within 60 days of the declaration thereof if, on the declaration date, such dividends could have been paid in compliance with the Indenture; provided, however, that such dividend shall be included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

            (b)   make Restricted Payments in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Capital Stock of Arch Coal (other than Disqualified Stock and other than Capital Stock issued or sold to a Subsidiary of Arch Coal or an employee stock ownership plan or trust established by Arch Coal or any such Subsidiary for the benefit of their employees); provided, however, that

              (1)   such purchase, repurchase, redemption, legal defeasance, acquisition or retirement shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments, and

              (2)   the Capital Stock Sale Proceeds from such exchange or sale shall be excluded from the calculation pursuant to clause (c) (2) above;

            (c)   purchase, repurchase, redeem, legally defease, acquire or retire for value any Subordinated Obligations in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Permitted Refinancing Debt; provided, however, that such purchase, repurchase, redemption, legal defeasance, acquisition or retirement shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

            (d)   repurchase shares of, or options to purchase shares of, common stock of Arch Coal or any of its Subsidiaries from current or former officers, directors or employees of Arch Coal or any of its Subsidiaries (or permitted transferees of such current or former officers, directors or employees), pursuant to the terms of agreements (including employment agreements) or plans (or amendments thereto) approved by the Board of Directors under which such individuals purchase or sell, or are granted the option to purchase or sell, shares of such common stock; provided, however, that: (1) the aggregate amount of such repurchases shall not exceed $10.0 million in any calendar year (with unused amounts in any calendar year being carried over to succeeding years subject to a maximum of $20.0 million in any calendar year) and (2) at the time of such repurchase, no other Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or result therefrom); provided further, however, that such repurchases shall be included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

            (e)   so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Arch Western is a limited liability company, make distributions to the ARCO Member (as defined in the LLC Agreement), with respect to any period after March 31, 2011, not to exceed the Tax Amount allocated to such member under the LLC Agreement for such period; provided, however, that such distributions shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

            (f)    so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, make distributions of the Preferred Return (as defined in the LLC Agreement) to the ARCO Member (as defined in the LLC Agreement) pursuant to the LLC Agreement in effect on the Issue Date; provided, however, that such distribution pursuant to this clause (f) shall not exceed $100,000 per year and shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

48


Table of Contents

            (g)   pay cash in lieu of fractional Capital Stock pursuant to the exchange or conversion of any exchangeable or convertible securities; provided, however, that such payment shall not be for the purpose of evading the limitation of this covenant (as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith); provided further, however, that such payments will be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

            (h)   repurchase of Capital Stock deemed to occur upon the exercise of options, warrants or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Capital Stock of Arch Coal to the extent that such Capital Stock represents all or a portion of the exercise price thereof; provided, however, that such repurchase will be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

            (i)    declare and pay dividends to holders of any class or series of Disqualified Stock of Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary, or Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case issued in accordance with the covenant described under "—Limitation on Debt"; provided, however, that 50% of such dividends shall be included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments;

            (j)    declare and pay dividends on Arch Coal's common stock not to exceed the greater of (1) an annual rate of $0.60 per share (such amount to be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the Issue Date so that the aggregate amount of dividends permitted after such transaction is the same as the amount permitted immediately prior to such transaction), and (2) $150.0 million per full calendar year (in each case of clause (1) and (2) pro rated for 2011 from the Issue Date); provided however that any unused amounts in any calendar year may be carried over for the next succeeding calendar; provided further, that such dividends shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments; and

            (k)   so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $400.0 million; provided, however, that such Restricted Payments shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments.

        For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, if a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Restricted Payments described in clauses (a) through (k) above, Arch Coal may, in its sole discretion, classify such Restricted Payment in any manner that complies with this covenant.

    Limitation on Liens.

        Arch Coal shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, Incur or suffer to exist, any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its Property (including Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom, unless it has made or will make effective provision whereby the Notes or any Note Guarantee will be secured by such Lien equally and ratably with all other Debt of Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary secured by such Lien for so long as such other Debt is secured by such Lien; provided, however, that if such Debt is expressly subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee, the Lien securing such Debt will be subordinated and junior to the Lien securing the Notes or such Note Guarantee, as the case may be, with the same relative priority as such Debt has with respect to the Notes or such Note Guarantee.

    Limitation on Asset Sales.

        Arch Coal shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless:

            (a)   Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the Property subject to such Asset Sale (such Fair Market Value to be determined at the time of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale);

            (b)   at least 75% of the consideration paid to Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such Asset Sale is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents or Additional Assets or a combination thereof. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

                (i)  any liabilities of Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities, liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or the Note Guarantees and liabilities to the extent owed to Arch Coal or any Subsidiary of Arch Coal) that are assumed by the transferee of any Property or Capital Stock, as applicable, to the extent that Arch Coal and the Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer obligated with respect to such liabilities; and

               (ii)  any securities, notes or other obligations received by Arch Coal or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 180 days of receipt (to the extent of the cash received in that conversion).

        The Net Available Cash (or any portion thereof) from Asset Sales may be applied by Arch Coal or a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary elects (or is required by the terms of any Debt) to:

            (a)   Repay any secured Debt (other than Subordinated Obligations) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, any Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor (other than Debt owed to Arch Coal or another Restricted Subsidiary) or any Debt under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement;

            (b)   make a capital expenditure or reinvest in Additional Assets (including by means of an Investment in Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary with Net Available Cash received by Arch Coal or another Restricted Subsidiary); or

            (c)   Repay other pari passu Debt; provided that Arch Coal shall also equally and ratably reduce Debt under the Notes through open-market purchases or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for a Prepayment Offer) to all Holders to purchase the pro rata principal amount of Notes, in each case at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

        Any Net Available Cash from an Asset Sale (other than an Asset Sale consisting of all of the Capital Stock of Canyon Fuel or Mountain Coal Company, L.L.C.) not applied in accordance with the preceding paragraph within 365 days from the date of the receipt of such Net Available Cash (provided that such 365 day period shall be extended with respect to Net Available Cash received by Arch Western or its Restricted Subsidiaries until the consummation of any asset sale prepayment offer required to be made pursuant to the Arch Western Notes Indenture or any agreement governing Permitted Refinancing Debt in respect thereof) or that is not segregated from the general funds of Arch Coal for investment in identified Additional Assets in respect of a project that shall have been commenced, and for which binding contractual commitments have been entered into, prior to the end

50


Table of Contents

of such 365-day period and that shall not have been completed or abandoned shall constitute "Excess Proceeds;" provided, however, that the amount of any Net Available Cash that ceases to be so segregated as contemplated above and any Net Available Cash that is segregated in respect of a project that is abandoned or completed shall also constitute "Excess Proceeds" at the time any such Net Available Cash ceases to be so segregated or at the time the relevant project is so abandoned or completed, as applicable; provided further, however, that the amount of any Net Available Cash that continues to be segregated for investment and that is not actually reinvested within twenty-four months from the date of the receipt of such Net Available Cash shall also constitute "Excess Proceeds." Any Net Available Cash from an Asset Sale consisting of all of the Capital Stock of Canyon Fuel Company, LLC or Mountain Coal Company, L.L.C. not applied in accordance with the preceding paragraph within 365 days from the date of the receipt of such Net Available Cash shall be segregated from the general funds of Arch Coal and invested in cash or Cash Equivalents pending application in accordance with the preceding paragraph. Subject to the foregoing, Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply the Net Available Cash to temporarily reduce Debt outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by the Indenture pending the final application of the Net Available Cash pursuant to this covenant.

        When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million (or earlier at Arch Coal's option, in which case Excess Proceeds shall be deemed to include any Net Available Cash Arch Coal elects to include in such repurchase offer), Arch Coal will be required to make an offer to repurchase (the "Prepayment Offer") the Notes, which offer shall be in the amount of the Allocable Excess Proceeds (rounded to the nearest $1,000), on a pro rata basis according to principal amount, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), in accordance with the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that any portion of the amount of Net Available Cash remains after compliance with the preceding sentence and provided that all Holders of Notes have been given the opportunity to tender their Notes for repurchase in accordance with the Indenture, Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary may use such remaining amount for any purpose not prohibited by the Indenture, and the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset to zero.

        The term "Allocable Excess Proceeds" shall mean the product of:

            (a)   the Excess Proceeds and (b) a fraction,

              (1)   the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding on the date of the Prepayment Offer, and

              (2)   the denominator of which is the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding on the date of the Prepayment Offer and the aggregate principal amount of other Debt of Arch Coal outstanding on the date of the Prepayment Offer that is pari passu in right of payment with the Notes and subject to terms and conditions in respect of Asset Sales similar in all material respects to this covenant and requiring Arch Coal to make an offer to repurchase such Debt at substantially the same time as the Prepayment Offer.

        Within five business days after Arch Coal is obligated to make a Prepayment Offer as described in the preceding paragraph, Arch Coal shall send or arrange to be sent a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders of Notes, accompanied by such information regarding Arch Coal and its Subsidiaries as Arch Coal in good faith believes will enable such Holders to make an informed decision with respect to such Prepayment Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the repurchase date, which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a business day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed.

51


Table of Contents

        Arch Coal will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this covenant. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this covenant, Arch Coal will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this covenant by virtue thereof.

        Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries.    Arch Coal shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist any consensual restriction on the right of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

              (B)  relating to any agreement or other instrument of a Restricted Subsidiary of Arch Coal and existing at the time it became a Restricted Subsidiary if such restriction was not created in connection with or in anticipation of the transaction or series of transactions pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by Arch Coal;

              (C)  that result from any amendment, restatement, renewal, replacement or refinancing of an agreement referred to in clause (1) (A) or (B) above or in clause (2) (A) or (B) below, provided such restrictions are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those under the agreement being amended, restated, renewed, refinanced or replaced;

              (D)  existing under, or by reason of or with respect to applicable law, rule, regulation or order of any governmental authority;

              (E)  on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers or required by insurance surety or bonding companies, in each case, under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

              (F)  relating to Debt of a Receivables Subsidiary or other contractual requirements of a Receivables Subsidiary in connection with a Receivables Facility; provided that such restrictions only apply to such Receivables Subsidiary or the receivables which are subject to the Receivables Facility;

              (G)  with respect to any Person or the Property of a Person acquired by Arch Coal or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries existing at the time of such acquisition and not incurred in connection with or in anticipation of such acquisition, which restriction is not applicable to any Person or the Property of any Person, other than the Person, or the Property of the Person, so acquired and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, extensions, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof, provided that the restrictions in

              (J)   contained in agreements or instruments governing the Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such restrictions contained in any agreement or instrument will not materially affect Arch Coal's ability to make anticipated principal or interest payments on the Notes (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or the senior management of Arch Coal); and

            (2)   with respect to clause (c) only, to restrictions:

              (A)  relating to Debt that is permitted to be Incurred and secured without also securing the Notes pursuant to the covenants described under "—Limitation on Debt" and "—Limitation on Liens" that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the Property securing such Debt;

              (C)  customary restrictions contained in asset sale agreements limiting the transfer of such Property pending the closing of such sale.

        Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates.    Arch Coal shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into or suffer to exist any transaction or series of transactions (including the purchase, sale, transfer, assignment, lease, conveyance or exchange of any Property or the rendering of any service) with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of Arch Coal (an "Affiliate Transaction") involving consideration in excess of $15.0 million, unless:

            (a)   the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable arm's-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate of Arch Coal;

            (b)   if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate payments or value in excess of $50.0 million, the Board of Directors approves such Affiliate Transaction and, in its good faith judgment, believes that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clauses (a) of this paragraph as evidenced by a Board Resolution promptly delivered to the Trustee; and

            (c)   if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate payments or value in excess of $250.0 million, Arch Coal obtains a written opinion from an Independent Financial Advisor to the effect that the consideration to be paid or received in connection with such Affiliate Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary or that such Affiliate Transaction is not materially less favorable to Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable arm's length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate of Arch Coal.

Table of Contents

        Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into or suffer to exist the following:

            (a)   any transaction or series of transactions between Arch Coal and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries, or among Restricted Subsidiaries;

            (b)   any Restricted Payment permitted to be made pursuant to the covenant described under "—Limitation on Restricted Payments" or Permitted Investments (other than pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of such definition);

            (c)   any reasonable and customary employment, consulting, service or termination agreement, or indemnification agreement, entered into by Arch Coal or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with officers, directors, employees and consultants of Arch Coal or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and the payment of fees or compensation (including amounts paid pursuant to employment and related agreements and employee benefit plans) for the personal services of current or former officers, directors, employees and consultants of Arch Coal or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including amounts paid pursuant to employee benefit plans, employee stock option, stock awards or similar plans);

            (d)   loans and advances to employees made in the ordinary course of business permitted by law and consistent with the past practices of Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary;

            (e)   indemnities of officers, directors and employees of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary consistent with applicable charter, bylaw or statutory provisions;

            (f)    agreements in effect on the Issue Date and any modifications, extensions or renewals thereto that are not materially less favorable taken as a whole to Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary than such agreements as in effect on the Issue Date;

            (g)   pledges of Capital Stock of Unrestricted Subsidiaries for the benefit of lenders to such Unrestricted Subsidiaries;

            (h)   any transaction with a Receivables Subsidiary as part of a Receivables Facility and otherwise in compliance with the Indenture that are fair to Arch Coal or its Restricted Subsidiaries or not less favorable to Arch Coal or its Restricted Subsidiaries than those that might be obtained at the time with Persons that are not Affiliates of Arch Coal (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors); and

            (i)    transactions with Unrestricted Subsidiaries, customers, clients, suppliers, contractors, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, or lessors or lessees of property, in each case in the ordinary course of business (including, without limitation, pursuant to joint venture agreements) and otherwise in compliance with the terms of the Indenture which are, in the aggregate (taking into account all the costs and benefits associated with such transactions), materially no less favorable taken as a whole to Arch Coal or its Restricted Subsidiaries than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by Arch Coal or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person, as determined in good faith by Arch Coal.

        Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.    The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation (which would constitute an Investment in such Subsidiary) would not result in a breach of the covenant described under "—Limitation on Restricted Payments" or otherwise cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by Arch Coal and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation as set forth under the definition of "Investment" and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the "—Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant or Permitted Investments, as determined by Arch

54


Table of Contents

Coal. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

        The Board of Directors may also designate any Subsidiary of Arch Coal to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if:

            (a)   the Subsidiary to be so designated does not own any Capital Stock or Debt of, or own or hold any Lien on any Property of, Arch Coal or any other Restricted Subsidiary and is not required to be a Guarantor pursuant to the Indenture; and

            (b)   either:

              (1)   the Subsidiary to be so designated has total assets of $1.0 million or less; or

              (2)   such designation is effective immediately upon such entity becoming a Subsidiary of Arch Coal.

        Unless so designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, any Person that becomes a Subsidiary of Arch Coal will be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that such Subsidiary shall not be designated a Restricted Subsidiary and shall be automatically classified as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if either of the requirements set forth in clauses (x) and (y) of the second immediately following paragraph will not be satisfied after giving pro forma effect to such classification or if such Person is a Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

        In addition, neither Arch Coal nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall at any time be directly or indirectly liable for any Debt that provides that the holder thereof may (with the passage of time or notice or both) declare a default thereon or cause the payment thereof to be accelerated or payable prior to its Stated Maturity upon the occurrence of a default with respect to any Debt, Lien or other obligation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary (including any right to take enforcement action against such Unrestricted Subsidiary) except for a pledge of the Capital Stock of any Unrestricted Subsidiary for the benefit of such holders.

        The Board of Directors may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if, immediately after giving pro forma effect to such designation,

        (x)   Arch Coal could Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt pursuant to clause (1) of the first paragraph of the covenant described under "—Limitation on Debt," and

        (y)   no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom.

        Any such designation or redesignation by the Board of Directors will be evidenced by filing with the Trustee a Board Resolution giving effect to such designation or redesignation and an Officers' Certificate that:

            (a)   certifies that such designation or redesignation complies with the foregoing provisions; and

            (b)   gives the effective date of such designation or redesignation,

such filing with the Trustee to occur within 45 days after the end of the fiscal quarter of Arch Coal in which such designation or redesignation is made (or, in the case of a designation or redesignation made during the last fiscal quarter of Arch Coal's fiscal year, within 90 days after the end of such fiscal year).

        Guarantees by Restricted Subsidiaries.    Arch Coal shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, directly or indirectly, to Guarantee or secure the payment of any other Debt of Arch Coal or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or any capital markets Debt unless such Restricted Subsidiary executes and delivers a supplemental indenture

55


Table of Contents

to the Indenture within 15 days providing for a Note Guarantee of the payment of the Notes by such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that this paragraph shall not be applicable to:

              (i)  any Guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary;

             (ii)  any Guarantee arising under or in connection with performance bonds, indemnity bonds, surety bonds or letters of credit or bankers' acceptances or coal sales contracts; or

            (iii)  Permitted Liens.

        If the Guaranteed Debt is a Subordinated Obligation, the Guarantee of such Guaranteed Debt must be subordinated in right of payment to the Note Guarantee to at least the extent that the Guaranteed Debt is subordinated to the Notes or the applicable Note Guarantee.

Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Property

        Arch Coal shall not merge, consolidate or amalgamate with or into any other Person (other than a merger of a Restricted Subsidiary of Arch Coal into Arch Coal) or sell, transfer, assign, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its Property in any one transaction or series of transactions unless:

            (a)   Arch Coal is the Surviving Person or the Surviving Person (if other than Arch Coal) formed by such merger, consolidation or amalgamation or to which such sale, transfer, assignment, lease, conveyance or disposition is made shall be a corporation, partnership or limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; provided that at any time the Surviving Person is a partnership or a limited liability company, there shall be a co-issuer of the Notes that is a corporation that also satisfies the requirements of this covenant;

            (b)   the Surviving Person (if other than Arch Coal) expressly assumes, by supplemental indenture in form satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such Surviving Person, the due and punctual performance and observance of all the obligations of the Indenture and the Notes;

            (c)   immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions on a pro forma basis (and treating, for purposes of this clause (c) and clause (d) below, any Debt that becomes, or is anticipated to become, an obligation of the Surviving Person or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction or series of transactions as having been Incurred by the Surviving Person or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction or series of transactions), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

            (d)   immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions on a pro forma basis, (1) at least $1.00 of additional Debt would be able to be Incurred under clause (1) of the first paragraph of the covenant described under "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Debt" or (2) the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of Arch Coal and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be equal to or greater than immediately prior to such transaction;" and

            (e)   Arch Coal shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such transaction or series of transactions and the supplemental indenture, if any, in respect thereto comply with this covenant and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction or series of transactions have been satisfied.

56


Table of Contents

        Clause (d) above of this paragraph shall not apply to (1) any merger, consolidation or sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among Arch Coal and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (2) a merger of Arch Coal with an Affiliate solely for the purpose of reincorporating Arch Coal in another jurisdiction.

        Arch Coal shall not permit any Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into any Person or sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of, all or substantially all of its assets, in one or more related transactions, to any Person unless Arch Coal has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that the transaction complies with the following conditions and each of the following conditions is satisfied:

            (a)   the other Person is Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor or becomes a Guarantor concurrently with the transaction; or

            (b)   (1) either (x) the Guarantor shall be the Surviving Person or (y) the entity formed by such consolidation or into which the Guarantor is merged, expressly assumes, by a Guarantee or a supplemental indenture in form satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such surviving Person the due and punctual performance and observance of all the obligations of such Guarantor under the Note Guarantee; and

              (2)   the Surviving Person, if other than the Guarantor, is a corporation or limited liability company organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and immediately after giving effect to the transaction and any related Incurrence of Debt of, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; or

            (c)   the transaction constitutes a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of the Guarantor or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (in each case other than to another Guarantor) and at the time of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto, the provisions of clause (c) of the first paragraph of this covenant would be satisfied, the transaction is otherwise permitted by the Indenture.

        The Surviving Person shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of Arch Coal under the Indenture (or of the Guarantor under the Note Guarantee, as the case may be), but Arch Coal, in the case of:

            (a)   a sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or other disposition (unless such sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or other disposition is of all the assets of Arch Coal as an entirety or virtually as an entirety); or

            (b)   a lease, shall not be released from any of the obligations or covenants under the Indenture.

Payments for Consents

        Arch Coal will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder of any Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid or is paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

SEC Reports

        Notwithstanding that Arch Coal may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, Arch Coal shall file with the Commission and, if not filed electronically with the Commission, will provide to the Trustee (within 15 days after it would have been required to

57


Table of Contents

file with the Commission) such quarterly and annual information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, as if Arch Coal where required to file such forms; provided, however, that Arch Coal shall not be so obligated to file such information, documents and reports with the Commission if the Commission does not permit such filings; provided further, however, that Arch Coal will be required to provide to the Trustee any such quarterly and annual information, documents or reports that are not are so filed.

        In addition, Arch Coal and the Guarantors agree that, for so long as any Notes remain outstanding, if at any time they are not required to file with the Commission the reports required by the preceding paragraph, they will furnish to Holders of the Notes and to prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

Events of Default

        Events of Default in respect of each series of the Notes include:

            (1)   failure to make the payment of any interest (including any Special Interest) on the Notes when the same becomes due and payable, and such failure continues for a period of 30 days;

            (2)   failure to make the payment of any principal of, or premium, if any, on, any of the Notes when the same becomes due and payable at its Stated Maturity, upon acceleration, optional redemption, required repurchase or otherwise;

            (3)   failure to comply with the covenant described under "—Repurchase at the Option of Holders Upon a Change of Control," "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Asset Sales" and—Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Property;"

            (4)   failure to comply with the covenant described under "—SEC Reports" for 120 days after written notice is given to Arch Coal as provided below;

            (5)   failure to comply with any other covenant or agreement in the Notes, the Indenture or the Note Guarantees (other than a failure that is the subject of the foregoing clause (1), (2), (3) or (4)), and such failure continues for 60 days after written notice is given to Arch Coal as provided below;

            (6)   a default under any Debt by Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary that results in acceleration of the maturity of such Debt, or failure to pay any such Debt at maturity, in an aggregate amount greater than $100.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time (the "cross acceleration provisions");

            (7)   any final judgment or judgments for the payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of $100.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent at the time), to the extent such judgments are not paid or covered by insurance provided by a reputable carrier that shall be rendered against Arch Coal or any Restricted Subsidiary and that shall not be waived, satisfied, stayed or discharged for any period of 60 consecutive days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired (the "judgment default provisions");

            (8)   certain events involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Arch Coal, any Guarantor or any other Significant Subsidiary (the "bankruptcy provisions"); and

            (9)   any Note Guarantee shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason (other than in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture) to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under any Note Guarantee.

58


Table of Contents

        A Default under clauses (3) or (4) is not an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of a series then outstanding notify Arch Coal of the Default and Arch Coal does not cure such Default within the time specified after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a "Notice of Default."

        Arch Coal shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers' Certificate of any event that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default, its status and what action is being taken or proposed to be taken with respect thereto.

        If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes (other than an Event of Default resulting from the bankruptcy provisions) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the registered Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of a series then outstanding may declare to be immediately due and payable the principal amount of all the Notes of such series then outstanding, plus accrued but unpaid interest to the date of acceleration. In case an Event of Default under the bankruptcy provisions shall occur, such amount with respect to all the Notes of each series shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes. After any such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration is obtained by the Trustee, the registered Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of a series then outstanding may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal, premium or interest, have been cured or waived as provided in the Indenture.

        In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default described in clause (6) under the first paragraph above has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes of a series shall be automatically annulled if the default or failure to make payment triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (6) shall be remedied or cured by Arch Coal or a Restricted Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Debt within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration of the Notes of such series with respect thereto and if (i) the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes of such series would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes of such series that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes of such series, have been cured or waived.

        Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of the Notes, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity. Subject to such provisions for the indemnification of the Trustee, the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of a series then outstanding will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes.

        No Holder of Notes of a series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy thereunder, unless:

            (a)   such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

            (b)   the registered Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding have made a written request and offered reasonable indemnity to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as Trustee; and

59


Table of Contents

            (c)   the Trustee shall not have received from the registered Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days.

        However, such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder of any Note for enforcement of payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on, such Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note.

Amendments and Waivers

        Subject to certain exceptions, Arch Coal and the Trustee with the consent of the registered Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes) may amend the Indenture and the Notes or the Note Guarantees and the registered Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding may waive any past default or compliance with any provisions of the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees (except a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest and certain covenants and provisions of the Indenture which cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note); provided that any amendment or supplement that affects the terms of any series of Notes as distinct from any other series of Notes shall require the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series. However, without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note, no amendment may, among other things,

            (1)   reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment or waiver;

            (2)   reduce the rate of, or extend the time for payment of, interest on any Note;

            (3)   reduce the principal of, or extend the Stated Maturity of, any Note;

            (4)   make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note;

            (5)   impair the right of any Holder of the Notes to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest, on, such Holder's Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder's Notes;

            (6)   reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed (other than any notice provisions), as described under "—Optional Redemption;"

            (7)   reduce the premium payable upon a Change of Control or, at any time after a Change of Control has occurred, change the time at which the Change of Control Offer relating thereto must be made or at which the Notes must be repurchased pursuant to such Change of Control Offer;

            (8)   at any time after Arch Coal is obligated to make a Prepayment Offer with the Excess Proceeds from Asset Sales, change the time at which such Prepayment Offer must be made or at which the Notes must be repurchased pursuant thereto;

            (9)   modify or change any provision of the Indenture affecting the ranking of the Notes or the Note Guarantees in a manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes; or

            (10) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or the Indenture other than in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, or amend or modify any provision relating to such release.

60


Table of Contents

        The Indenture and the Notes may be amended by Arch and the Trustee without the consent of any Holder of the Notes to:

            (a)   cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency in any manner that is not adverse in any material respect to any Holder of the Notes;

            (b)   provide for the assumption by a Surviving Person of the obligations of Arch Coal under the Indenture;

            (c)   provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163 (f) (2) (B) of the Code);

            (d)   add Note Guarantees with respect to the Notes or confirm and evidence the release, termination or discharge of any security or Note Guarantee when such release, termination or discharge is permitted by the Indenture;

            (e)   secure the Notes, add to the covenants of Arch Coal and the Restricted Subsidiaries for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes or surrender any right or power conferred upon Arch Coal;

            (f)    make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of the Notes;

            (g)   comply with any requirement of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;

            (h)   provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the Indenture;

            (i)    to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee;

            (j)    to conform the text of the Indenture or the Notes to any provision of this "Description of Notes" to the extent that such provision in this "Description of Notes" was intended to be a recitation of a provision of the Indenture or the Notes; or

            (k)   to make any amendment to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of the Notes as permitted by the Indenture, including, without limitation to facilitate the issuance and administration of the Notes; provided, however, that (i) compliance with the Indenture as so amended would not result in the Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities law and (ii) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer the Notes.

        The consent of the Holders of the Notes is not necessary to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. After an amendment becomes effective, Arch Coal is required to mail, or arrange to be mailed, to each registered Holder of the Notes at such Holder's address appearing in the Security Register a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders of the Notes, or any defect therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment.

Defeasance

        Arch Coal at any time may terminate all of its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture and all obligations of the Guarantors may be discharged with respect to their Note Guarantees ("legal defeasance"), except for certain obligations, including those respecting the defeasance trust and obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the Notes, to replace mutilated, destroyed, lost or

61


Table of Contents

stolen Notes and to maintain a registrar and paying agent in respect of the Notes. Arch Coal at any time may terminate:

            (1)   its obligations under the covenants described under "—Repurchase at the Option of Holders Upon a Change of Control," "—Certain Covenants" and "—Reports" (and thereafter any omission to comply with these covenants will not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes);

            (2)   the operation of the cross acceleration provisions, the judgment default provisions and the bankruptcy provisions with respect to Significant Subsidiaries described under "—Events of Default" above; and

            (3)   the limitations contained in clause (d) under the first paragraph of "—Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Property" above ("covenant defeasance").

        Arch Coal may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option.

        If Arch Coal exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. If Arch Coal exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clause (4) (with respect to the covenants described under "—Certain Covenants" or "—Reports"), (5), (6) or (7) (with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries) under "—Events of Default" above or because of the failure to comply with clause (d) under the first paragraph of "—Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Property" above.

        The legal defeasance option or the covenant defeasance option may be exercised only if:

            (a)   Arch Coal irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

            (b)   Arch Coal delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressing their opinion that the payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest when due on all the Notes to be defeased to maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

            (c)   91 days pass after the deposit is made, and during the 91-day period, no Default described in clause (7) under "—Events of Default" occurs with respect to Arch Coal or any other Person making such deposit which is continuing at the end of the period;

            (d)   no Default or Event of Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Debt and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit and after giving effect thereto;

            (e)   such deposit does not constitute a default under any other material agreement or instrument binding on Arch Coal or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

            (f)    in the case of the legal defeasance option, Arch Coal delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that:

              (1)   Arch Coal has received from the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or

              (2)   since the date of the Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall

62

Registration Rights

        We are making the exchange offer to satisfy your registration rights, as a holder of the original notes. The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement. It does not restate that agreement in its entirety. We urge you to read the Registration Rights Agreement, which is an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, in its entirety because it, and not this description, defines your registration rights as a holder of the original notes.

        Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed, for the benefit of the holders of the original notes, at our cost, to file the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part with the SEC and to consummate the exchange offer not later than 365 days from the date of the Registration Rights Agreement.

        We will file with the SEC a shelf registration statement to cover resales of the original notes by the holders of the original notes who satisfy certain conditions relating to the provision of information in connection with the shelf registration statement, if (i) due to any change in law or applicable interpretations thereof by the SEC's staff, we determine upon advice of our outside counsel that we are not permitted to effect the exchange offer as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement; (ii) for any other reason the exchange offer is not consummated within 365 days of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement; (iii) any initial purchaser of the original notes so requests with respect to original notes that are not eligible to be exchanged for exchange notes in the exchange offer and that are held by it following consummation of the exchange offer; (iv) any holder of original notes (other than an initial purchaser) is not eligible to participate in the exchange offer; or (v) in the case of any initial purchaser that participates in the exchange offer or acquires exchange notes pursuant to Section 2(f) of the Registration Rights Agreement, such initial purchaser does not receive freely tradeable exchange notes in exchange for original notes constituting any portion of an unsold allotment (it being understood that (x) the requirement that an initial purchaser deliver a prospectus containing the information required by Item 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act in connection with sales of exchange notes acquired in exchange for such original notes will result in such exchange notes being not "freely tradeable"; and (y) the requirement that an exchanging dealer deliver a prospectus in connection with sales of exchange notes acquired in the exchange offer in exchange for original notes acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities will not result in such exchange notes being not "freely tradeable"). Holders of original notes will be required to deliver certain information to be used in connection with the shelf registration statement and to

64


Table of Contents

provide comments on the shelf registration statement within the time periods set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement in order to have their original notes included in the shelf registration statement and benefit from the provisions regarding additional interest set forth below. By acquiring original notes, a holder is deemed to have agreed to indemnify us against certain losses arising out of information furnished by such holder in writing for inclusion in any shelf registration statement. Holders of original notes will also be required to suspend their use of the prospectus included in the shelf registration statement under certain circumstances upon receipt of written notice to that effect from us.

        If (i) the exchange offer is not consummated 365 days from the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, or (ii) a shelf registration statement is required to be filed but has not been declared effective under the Securities Act within 365 days of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, the interest rate borne by the original notes will be increased by one-quarter of one percent per annum for the first 90 days following such period. Such interest rate will increase by an additional one-quarter of one percent per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period thereafter up to a maximum aggregate increase of one percent per annum. Upon the consummation of the exchange offer or the effectiveness of the shelf registration statement, as applicable, the interest rate borne by the original notes will be reduced to the original interest rate. All accrued additional interest will be paid by us on the next scheduled interest payment date.

Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

        Except as set forth below, Notes will be issued in registered, global form in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

        The Notes initially will be represented by one or more Notes in registered, global form without interest coupons (collectively, the "Global Notes"). The Global Notes will be deposited upon issuance with the Trustee as custodian for The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, in each case for credit to an account of a direct or indirect participant in DTC as described below.

        Except as set forth below, the Global Notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee. Beneficial interests in the Global Notes may be exchanged for Notes in certificated form. See "—Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes."

        In addition, transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect participants (including, if applicable, those of Euroclear and Clearstream), which may change from time to time.

Depository Procedures

        DTC will act as securities depository for the Notes. The Notes will be issued as fully registered securities in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, and will be deposited with DTC or its custodian.

        DTC, the world's largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 2.2 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments from over 100 countries that DTC's participants, which we refer to as direct participants, deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among direct participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between direct participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC, in turn, is owned by a number of direct participants of DTC and members of the National Securities Clearing Corporation, Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, and Emerging Markets Clearing Corporation, as well as by The New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange LLC, and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to the DTC system is also available to other entities such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant, either directly or indirectly, which we refer to as indirect participants. The DTC rules applicable to its participants are on file with the SEC. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. The information on this website is not a part of this prospectus.

Table of Contents

        Purchases of Notes under the DTC system must be made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the Notes on the records of DTC. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each exchange note, which we refer to as a beneficial owner, is in turn to be recorded on the records of the direct and indirect participant's records. Beneficial owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the direct or indirect participant through which the beneficial owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Notes are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of direct and indirect participants acting on behalf of beneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the Notes, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Notes is discontinued.

        To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Notes deposited by direct participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Notes with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the Notes; the records of DTC reflect only the identity of the direct participants to whose accounts such Notes are credited, which may or may not be the beneficial owners. The direct and indirect participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

        Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants, and by direct participants and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial owners of Notes may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Notes, such as redemptions, defaults and proposed amendments to the documents establishing the Notes. For example, beneficial owners of Notes may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Notes for their benefit has agreed to obtain and to transmit notices to beneficial owners or, in the alternative, beneficial owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the transfer agent and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them.

        Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all the Notes within an issue are being redeemed, the practice of DTC is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each direct participant in such issue to be redeemed.

        Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor such other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the Notes unless authorized by a direct participant in accordance with DTC's procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an omnibus proxy to us as soon as possible after the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those direct participants to whose accounts the Notes are credited on the record date, identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.

        Redemption proceeds and distribution and interest payments on the Notes will be made to Cede & Co. or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The practice of DTC is to credit the accounts of direct participants, upon the receipt by DTC of funds and corresponding detail information from us, on the payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on the records of DTC. Payments by participants to beneficial owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practice, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such participant and not of DTC or its nominee, the initial purchaser or us, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds and distribution and interest payments to Cede & Co. or such other nominee as may be requested by an

88


Table of Contents

authorized representative of DTC is our responsibility, disbursement of such payments to direct participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the beneficial owners will be the responsibility of direct and indirect participants.

        A beneficial owner shall give notice to elect to have its Notes purchased or tendered, through its participant, to the tender or remarketing agent and shall effect delivery of such Notes by causing the direct participant to transfer the interest of the participant in the Notes, on the records of DTC, to the tender or remarketing agent. The requirement for physical delivery of Notes in connection with an optional tender or a mandatory purchase will be deemed satisfied when the ownership rights in the Notes are transferred by direct participants on the records of DTC and followed by a book-entry credit of tendered Notes to the DTC account of the tender or remarketing agent.

        DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Notes at any time by giving reasonable notice to us. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, exchange note certificates are required to be printed and delivered.

        We may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC or a successor securities depository. In that event, exchange note certificates will be printed and delivered.

        This information in this section concerning DTC and its book-entry system has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes

        A Global Note is exchangeable for definitive Notes in registered certificated form ("Certificated Notes") if:

            (1)   DTC (a) notifies Arch Coal that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Notes or (b) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and in each case Arch Coal fails to appoint a successor depositary;

            (2)   Arch Coal, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Certificated Notes (DTC has advised Arch Coal that, in such event, under current DTC practices, DTC would notify its participants of Arch Coal's request but will only withdraw beneficial interests from a Global Note at the request of each DTC participant); or

            (3)   there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and DTC requests Certificated Notes.

        In addition, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be exchanged for Certificated Notes upon prior written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of DTC in accordance with the Indenture. In all cases, Certificated Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests in Global Notes will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the depositary (in accordance with its customary procedures).

Exchange of Certificated Notes for Global Notes

        Certificated Notes may not be exchanged for beneficial interests in any Global Note unless the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in the form provided in the Indenture) to the effect that such transfer will comply with the appropriate transfer restrictions applicable to such Notes.

89


Table of Contents

Same Day Settlement and Payment

        Arch Coal will make payments in respect of the Notes represented by the Global Notes (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Global Note Holder. Arch Coal will make all payments of principal, interest and premium, if any, with respect to Certificated Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders thereof or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to each such Holder's registered address. The Notes represented by the Global Notes are expected to be eligible to trade in DTC's Same-Day Funds Settlement System, and any permitted secondary market trading activity in such Notes will, therefore, be required by DTC to be settled in immediately available funds. Arch Coal expects that secondary trading in any Certificated Notes will also be settled in immediately available funds.

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

        The following is a summary of material United States federal income tax consequences of the exchange of original notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer by a holder of the original notes that purchased the original notes for cash at original issuance at the price indicated on the cover of the original offering circular. This summary is based upon existing United States federal income tax law, which is subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary does not discuss all aspects of United States federal income taxation that may be important to particular investors in light of their individual circumstances, such as investors subject to special tax rules (e.g., financial institutions, insurance companies, broker-dealers, traders that elect to mark-to-market and tax-exempt organizations), persons that held the original notes or will hold the exchange notes as a part of a straddle, hedge, conversion, constructive sale or other integrated transaction for United States federal income tax purposes, partnerships or U.S. Holders (as defined below) that have a functional currency other than the United States dollar, all of whom may be subject to tax rules that differ materially from those summarized below. In addition, this summary does not discuss any federal estate or gift, foreign, state or local tax considerations of the exchange offer. This summary is written for investors that held their original notes and will hold their exchange notes as "capital assets" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. Each prospective investor should consult its tax advisor regarding the United States federal, state, local and foreign income and other tax consequences of the exchange offer.

        For purposes of this summary, a "U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of an exchange note that is, for United States federal income tax purposes, (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation or other entity treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, created in or organized under the law of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof, (iii) an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for United States federal income tax purposes regardless of its source, or (iv) a trust (A) the administration of which is subject to the primary supervision of a United States court and with respect to which one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (B) that has in effect a valid election under applicable United States Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person. If a partnership (including any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of exchange notes, the treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A holder of exchange notes that is a partnership and partners in such a partnership should consult their tax advisors regarding the United States federal, state, local and foreign income and other tax consequences of the exchange offer and of the holding and disposing of exchange notes.

Exchange Offer

        The exchange of the original notes for the exchange notes in the exchange offer will not constitute a taxable exchange for holders because the exchange notes will not be considered to differ materially in kind or extent from the original notes. As a result, for U.S. federal income tax purposes (i) a holder will not recognize any income, gain or loss as a result of exchanging the original notes for the exchange notes, (ii) the holding period of the exchange notes will include the holding period of the original notes exchanged and (iii) the adjusted tax basis of the exchange notes will be the same as the adjusted tax basis of the original notes exchanged immediately before such exchange.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

        Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for original notes where such original notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. We and the guarantors have agreed that, starting on the expiration date and ending on the close of business 180 days after the expiration date, we will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until                    , 2012, dealers effecting transactions in the exchange notes may be required to deliver a prospectus.

        We and the guarantors will not receive any proceeds from any sale of exchange notes by brokers-dealers. Exchange notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the exchange notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer and/or the purchasers of any such exchange notes. Any broker-dealer that resells exchange notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such exchange notes may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit of any such resale of exchange notes and any commissions or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The letter of transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act.

        For a period of 180 days after the expiration date, we and the guarantors will promptly send additional copies of this prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the letter of transmittal. We and the guarantors have agreed to pay all expenses incidental to the exchange offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the holders of the original notes) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and certain transfer taxes and will indemnify the holders of the original notes (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

        Under existing interpretations of the Securities Act by the SEC's staff contained in several no-action letters to third parties, and subject to the immediately following sentence, we and the guarantors believe that the exchange notes would generally be freely transferable by holders after the exchange offer without further registration under the Securities Act, subject to certain representations required to be made by each holder of exchange notes, as set forth below. However, any purchaser of exchange notes who is an "affiliate" (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of ours and the guarantors or who intends to participate in the exchange offer for the purpose of distributing the exchange notes:

    will not be able to rely on the applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC;

    will not be able to tender its original securities in the exchange offer; and

    must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any sale or transfer of the exchange notes unless such sale or transfer is made pursuant to an exemption from such requirements.

        We and the guarantors do not intend to seek our own interpretations regarding the exchange offer, and there can be no assurance that the SEC's staff would make a similar determination with respect to the exchange notes as it has in other interpretation to other parties, although we and the guarantors have no reason to believe otherwise.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 20.    Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

        The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of any statutes referred to below and the restated certificate of incorporation and amended and by-laws of Arch Coal, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Arch Coal" or the "Company").

        Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation, in its certificate of incorporation, to limit or eliminate, subject to certain statutory limitations, the liability of directors to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty, except for liability (a) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) under Section 174 of the Delaware law or (d) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Our restated certificate of incorporation provides, among other things, that the personal liability of our directors is so eliminated.

        Under Section 145 of the Delaware law, a corporation has the power to indemnify directors and officers under certain prescribed circumstances and subject to certain limitations against certain costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to which any of them is a party by reason of his being a director or officer of the corporation if it is determined that he acted in accordance with the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such statutory provision. Our amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify any person who may be involved, as a party or otherwise, in a claim, action, suit or proceeding (other than any claim, action, suit or proceeding brought by or in the right of Arch Coal, Inc.) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer, or is or was serving at the request of us as a director or officer of any other corporation or entity, against certain liabilities, costs and expenses. We are also authorized to maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer, or is or was serving at the request of us as a director or officer of any other corporation or entity, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity or arising out of his status as such, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Delaware law. We are a party to agreements with our directors and officers pursuant to which we have agreed to indemnify them against certain costs and expenses incurred by them in their capacities as such.

Item 21.    Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules

(a)   Exhibits

        The exhibits to this registration statement are listed in the Exhibit Index, which appears elsewhere herein and is incorporated by reference.

Item 22.    Undertakings.

        The undersigned registrants hereby undertake:

            (1)   To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                (i)  To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

               (ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,

II-1


Table of Contents

      individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;

              (iii)  To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

            (2)   That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

            (3)   To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

            (4)   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

            (5)   The undersigned registrants hereby undertake that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference into the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

            (6)   The undersigned registrants hereby undertake to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

            (7)   The undersigned registrants hereby undertake to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.

For purposes of the foregoing, two or more classes or series of stock shall be considered a single class if the holders thereof are entitled to vote together as a single class at the meeting. In the absence of a quorum at any such meeting or any adjournment thereof, any officer entitled to preside at, or to act as secretary of, such meeting may adjourn the meeting from time to time in the manner provided in Section 2.5 of these Bylaws, until stockholders holding the amount of stock requisite for a quorum shall be present in person or by proxy.

Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the Secretary of the Corporation. Voting at meetings of the stockholders need not be by written ballot and need not be conducted by inspectors unless otherwise provided in these Bylaws or unless so directed by the chairman of the meeting or unless the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of all classes of stock entitled to vote thereon present in person or by proxy at such meeting shall so determine. At all meetings of the stockholders for the election of directors, a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors shall be sufficient to elect directors. All other elections and questions shall, unless otherwise provided by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, or these Bylaws, be decided by the vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the Corporation’s stock entitled to vote thereon present in person or by proxy at the meeting, voting as a single class, provided that (except as otherwise required by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation or these Bylaws) the Board of Directors may require a larger vote upon any such election or question.

Expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses, incurred by any such indemnified person in defending a proceeding will be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding, including any appeal therefrom, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay promptly such amount if it will ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.

 

22. Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be held to be enforceable only if modified, such holding will not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement, the balance of which will continue to be

6.02                           Indemnification.

 

(a)                                  The Member, the managers, any officers of the Company appointed by the Board of Managers, and their affiliates, and their respective stockholders, members, managers, directors, officers, partners, agents and employees (individually and collectively, an “Indemnitee”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (each a “Claim”), in which the Indemnitee may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise by reason of such Indemnitee’s status as any of the foregoing, which relates to or arises out of the Company, its assets, business or affairs, if in each of the foregoing cases, the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner such Indemnitee believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified above. Any indemnification pursuant to this Article VI shall be made only out of the assets of the Company, and neither the Member nor any manager shall have any personal liability on account thereof.

 

(b)                                 In the event that an amendment to this Agreement reduces or eliminates any Indemnitee’s right to indemnification pursuant to this Article VI, such amendment shall not be effective with respect to any Indemnitee’s right to indemnification that accrued prior to the date of such amendment. For purposes of this Section 6.02(b), a right to indemnification shall accrue as of the date of the event underlying the Claim that gives rise to such right to indemnification.

(a)           The Member, the managers, any officers of the Company appointed by the Board of Managers, and their affiliates, and their respective stockholders, members, managers, directors, officers, partners, agents and employees (individually and collectively, an “Indemnitee”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (each a “Claim”), in which the Indemnitee may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise by reason of

 

5


 

such Indemnitee’s status as any of the foregoing, which relates to or arises out of the Company, its assets, business or affairs, if in each of the foregoing cases, the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner such Indemnitee believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.  The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified above.  Any indemnification pursuant to this Article VI shall be made only out of the assets of the Company, and neither the Member nor any manager shall have any personal liability on account thereof.

 

(b)           In the event that an amendment to this Agreement reduces or eliminates any Indemnitee’s right to indemnification pursuant to this Article VI, such amendment shall not be effective with respect to any Indemnitee’s right to indemnification that accrued prior to the date of such amendment.  For purposes of this Section 6.02(b), a right to indemnification shall accrue as of the date of the event underlying the Claim that gives rise to such right to indemnification.

 

(c)           All calculations of Claims and the amount of indemnification to which any Indemnitee is entitled under this Article VI shall be made (i) giving effect to the tax consequences of any such Claim and (ii) after deduction of all proceeds of insurance net of retroactive premiums and self-insurance retention recoverable by the Indemnitee with respect to such Claims.

 

6.03         Expenses.  Expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding described in Section 6.02 may, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, in the discretion of the Board of Managers, upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Article VI.

 

6.04         Non-Exclusivity.  The indemnification and advancement of expenses set forth in this Article VI shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any statute, the Act, the Certificate, this Agreement, any other agreement, a vote of the Member, a policy of insurance or otherwise, and shall not limit in any way any right which the Company may have to make additional indemnifications with respect to the same or different persons or classes of persons, as determined by the Board of Managers.  The indemnification and advancement of expenses set forth in this Article VI shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a named Indemnitee and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of such a person.

 

6.05         Insurance.  The Company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the Indemnitees against any liability asserted against them and incurred by them in such capacity, or arising out of their status as Indemnitees, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify them against such liability under this Article VI.

 

6.06         Duties.  An authorized officer or manager shall discharge his or her duties hereunder in good faith, with the care a corporate officer of like position would exercise under

 

6



 

similar circumstances, in the manner he or she reasonably believes to be in the best interest of the Company, and shall not be liable for any such action so taken or any failure to take such action, if he or she performs such duties in compliance herewith.

Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-4

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel to (i) Arch Coal, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and (ii) the wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company listed on Schedule I hereto (collectively, the “Guarantors”) in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by the Company and the Guarantors with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on the date hereof, relating to the registration of (i) up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “New 2019 Notes”) to be offered in exchange for a like principal amount of the Company’s issued and outstanding unregistered 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Old 2019 Notes”); (ii) up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (together with the New 2019 Notes, the “Exchange Notes”) to be offered in exchange for a like principal amount of the Company’s issued and outstanding unregistered 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (together with the Old 2019 Notes, the “Original Notes”); and (iii) the related guarantees of the Exchange Notes by the Guarantors (the “Guarantees”).  The Exchange Notes and the Guarantees are proposed to be issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, dated as of June 14, 2011 (as supplemented, the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, certain of the Guarantors party thereto and UMB Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by (i) the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of July 5, 2011, by and among the Company, certain of the Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee and (ii) the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 7, 2011, by and among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee.

 

In connection with rendering the opinions set forth below, we have examined (i) the Registration Statement, including the prospectus forming a part thereof (the “Prospectus”) and the exhibits filed therewith; (ii) the Indenture; (iii) the Original Notes; (iv) the Exchange Notes; (v) the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended; (vi) the Company’s Bylaws, as amended; (vii) the respective certificates of incorporation, certificates of formation or similar organic documents, as the case may be, of the Guarantors; (viii) the respective bylaws, limited liability company agreements or similar organic documents, as the case may be, of the Guarantors; (ix) resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company; and (x) resolutions adopted by the respective boards of directors or managers or the members, as the case may be, of the Guarantors.  We have examined and relied upon certificates of public officials.  We have not independently established any of the facts so relied on.

 



 

For the purposes of this opinion letter, we further have made the assumptions that (i) each document submitted to us is accurate and complete; (ii) each such document that is an original is authentic; (iii) each such document that is a copy conforms to an authentic original; and (iv) all signatures (other than signatures on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor) on each such document are genuine.  We also have assumed for purposes of this opinion letter the legal capacity of natural persons and that each party to the documents we have examined or relied on (other than the Company and each Guarantor) has the legal capacity or authority and has satisfied all legal requirements that are applicable to that party to the extent necessary to make such documents enforceable against it.  We have not verified any of the foregoing assumptions.  Furthermore, we have relied upon, insofar as the opinions expressed herein relate to or are dependent upon matters governed by the law of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, the Commonwealth of Virginia or the State of West Virginia, the opinion letter of Jackson Kelly PLLC that is dated the date hereof and filed as Exhibit 5.2 to the Registration Statement.

 

The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are limited to (i) the laws of the State of New York and (ii) the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Limited Liability Company Act of the State of Delaware.  We are not opining on, and we assume no responsibility for, the applicability to or effect on any of the matters covered herein of any other laws, the laws of any county, municipality or other political subdivision or local governmental agency or authority.

 

Based on and subject to the foregoing and to the additional qualifications and other matters set forth below, it is our opinion that the Exchange Notes and the Guarantees, when (i) the Original Notes have been exchanged in the manner described in the Registration Statement; (ii) the Exchange Notes and the Guarantees have been duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, and (iii) all applicable provisions of “blue sky” laws have been complied with, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, respectively, enforceable against the Company and the Guarantors, respectively, in accordance with their terms (subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, receivership, moratorium and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors or secured parties generally, and to the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity, whether applied by a court of law or equity).

 

The foregoing opinions are rendered as of the date hereof, and we have not undertaken to supplement this opinion with respect to factual matters or changes in law which may hereafter occur.

 

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to this firm’s name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus. In giving our consent, we do not thereby admit that we are experts with respect to any part of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement within the

meaning of the term “expert”, as used in Section 11 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, nor do we admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as special Kentucky counsel to Coal-Mac, Inc., a Kentucky corporation (“Coal-Mac”); as special Virginia counsel to White Wolf Energy, Inc., a Virginia corporation (“White Wolf”); and as special West Virginia counsel to the following entities: Bronco Mining Company, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Bronco”), Hawthorne Coal Company, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Hawthorne”), Juliana Mining Company, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Juliana”), King Knob Coal Co., Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“King Knob”), Melrose Coal Company, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Melrose”), Mountain Gem Land, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Mountain Gem”), Patriot Mining Company, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Patriot”), Vindex Energy Corporation, a West Virginia corporation (“Vindex”) and Wolf Run Mining Company, a West Virginia corporation (“Wolf Run” and together with Bronco, Coal-Mac, Hawthorne, Juliana, King Knob, Melrose, Mountain Gem, Patriot, Vindex and White Wolf, the “Designated Subsidiary Guarantors”) in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by Arch Coal, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the subsidiary guarantors named therein (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), including the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the registration by the Company of (i) up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “New 2019 Notes”) to be offered in exchange for a like principal amount of the Company’s issued and outstanding unregistered 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Old 2019 Notes”); (ii) up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (together with the New 2019 Notes, the “Exchange Notes”) to be offered in exchange for a like principal amount of the Company’s issued and outstanding unregistered 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (together with the Old 2019 Notes, the “Original Notes”); and (iii) the related guarantees of the Exchange Notes by the Subsidiary Guarantors (the “Guarantees”).

 

The Exchange Notes are proposed to be issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, dated as of June 14, 2011 (as supplemented, the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, certain of the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto and UMB Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by (i) the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of July 5, 2011, by and among the Company, certain of the Subsidiary Guarantors party

 

 



 

thereto and the Trustee (the “First Supplemental Indenture”) and (ii) the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 7, 2011, by and among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee (together with the First Supplemental Indenture, the “Supplemental Indentures”).  Pursuant to Article X of the Indenture, as supplemented, the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors agreed to guarantee the obligations of the Company under the Indenture and the Original Notes, as well as any 2019 notes and any 2021 notes issued in exchange for the Original Notes.

 

In connection with rendering the opinions set forth below, we have examined the (i) Registration Statement, including the prospectus forming a part thereof (the “Prospectus”) and the exhibits filed therewith; (ii) the Indenture; (iii) the Original Notes; (iv) the Supplemental Indentures; (v) the Exchange Notes; (vi) the respective Certificates of Incorporation of the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors; (vii) the respective bylaws of the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors; (viii) resolutions adopted by the respective boards of directors of the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors; (ix) the respective secretary’s certificates of the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors; and (x) certificates of existence for each of Coal-Mac, Bronco, Hawthorne, Juliana, King Knob, Melrose, Mountain Gem, Patriot, Vindex and Wolf Run, and a certificate of good standing of White Wolf.  We have made such other investigation as we have deemed appropriate.  We have examined and relied upon certificates of public officials and of officers of the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors.  We have not independently established any of the facts so relied on.

 

For the purposes of this opinion letter, we further have made the assumptions that (i) each document submitted to us is accurate and complete; (ii) each such document that is an original is authentic; (iii) each such document that is a copy conforms to an authentic original; and (iv) all signatures on each such document are genuine.  We also have assumed for purposes of this opinion letter the legal capacity of natural persons and that each party to the documents we have examined or relied on (other than the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors) has the legal capacity or authority and has satisfied all legal requirements that are applicable to that party to the extent necessary to make such documents enforceable against it.  We have not verified any of the foregoing assumptions.

 

The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are limited to the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky (insofar as the opinions relate to Coal-Mac), the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia (in so far as the opinions relate to White Wolf), and the laws of the State of West Virginia (insofar as the opinions relate to Bronco, Hawthorne, Juliana, King Knob, Melrose, Mountain Gem, Patriot, Vindex, and Wolf Run), including the applicable provisions of the Kentucky, Virginia and West Virginia Constitutions, respectively, and reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws.  We are not opining on, and we assume no responsibility for, the applicability to or effect on any of the matters covered herein of federal law, the laws of any states other than Kentucky, Virginia or West Virginia or the laws of any county, municipality or other political subdivision or local governmental agency or authority.

Based on and subject to the foregoing and to the additional qualifications and other matters set forth below, it is our opinion that:

 

1.             Coal-Mac is validly existing as a corporation under the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky; White Wolf is validly existing and in good standing as a corporation under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia; and Bronco, Hawthorne, Juliana, King Knob, Melrose, Mountain Gem, Patriot, Vindex, and Wolf Run are validly existing as corporations under the laws of the State of West Virginia.

 

2.             The Designated Subsidiary Guarantors have the requisite corporate power and authority to guarantee the Exchange Notes pursuant to the Indenture, as supplemented.

 

3.             Each of the Guarantees issued by the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with the Indenture and the Supplemental Indentures has been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action by each of the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors.

 

4.             The Guarantees issued by each of the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with the Indenture and the Supplemental Indentures do not violate any provision of the organizational documents which we have reviewed of the respective Designated Subsidiary Guarantors or the applicable law of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, in the case of Coal-Mac, the Commonwealth of Virginia, in the case of White Wolf, or the State of West Virginia, in the case of Bronco, Hawthorne, Juliana, King Knob, Melrose, Mountain Gem, Patriot, Vindex and Wolf Run.

 

5.             No governmental approval by any governmental authority of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, the Commonwealth of Virginia or the State of West Virginia is required to authorize, or is required for, the issuance of the Guarantees to which the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors are parties.

 

6.             When (a) the Company’s outstanding Original Notes have been exchanged in the manner described in the Registration Statement, (b) the Exchange Notes have been duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indentures, and (c) all applicable provisions of “blue sky” laws have been complied with, the Guarantees to which the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors are parties will be validly issued.

 

The opinion expressed in numbered paragraph 1 above with respect to the existence of each of the Designated Subsidiary Guarantors (excluding White Wolf) and with respect to the good standing of White Wolf is based solely on the certificates of existence obtained from the West Virginia Secretary of State and the Kentucky Secretary of State and the certificate of good standing from the Virginia State Corporation Commission as of the date of the applicable certificate for a particular Designated Subsidiary Guarantor.

Although attorneys in our firm are licensed to practice law in a variety of jurisdictions, only those admitted to the bars in the Commonwealth of Kentucky, the Commonwealth of Virginia and the State of West Virginia have been involved in the issuance of this opinion, and we express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Kentucky, the Commonwealth of Virginia and the State of West Virginia.  The opinions expressed herein are based on laws in effect on the date hereof, which laws are subject to change with possible retroactive effect.

 

The foregoing opinions are rendered as of the date hereof, and we have not undertaken to supplement this opinion with respect to factual matters or changes in law which may hereafter occur.  The opinions expressed in this letter are provided as legal opinions only and not as guaranties or warranties of the matters discussed herein.  Subject to the qualifications, limitations, exceptions, restrictions and assumptions set forth herein, K&L Gates LLP may rely on this opinion letter as if it were an addressee hereof on this date for the sole purpose of rendering its opinion letter to the Company, as filed with the Commission as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement.

 

The limitations inherent in the role of special local counsel are such that we cannot and have not independently verified and are not passing upon, and do not assume any responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the information included in the Registration Statement, the exhibits filed therewith or the Prospectus and, except for the opinions contained herein and as specifically provided below, we have not participated in the preparation of any material in connection with the filing by the Company and the Guarantors with the Commission of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus with respect to the registration of the Exchange Notes and assume no responsibility for the contents of any such material.

 

We hereby consent to the reference to Jackson Kelly PLLC under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus constituting a part of the Registration Statement.

        DELIVERY OF THIS INSTRUMENT TO AN ADDRESS OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE, OR TRANSMISSION OF THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL VIA FACSIMILE OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE, WILL NOT CONSTITUTE A VALID DELIVERY OF THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.


        The prospectus, dated                                    , 2012 (the "Prospectus"), of Arch Coal, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Arch Coal"), and this Letter of Transmittal (this "Letter") together constitute Arch Coal's offer (the "Exchange Offer") (i) to exchange up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (CUSIP No. 039380AE0) ("the new 2019 notes") which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), for a like principal amount of Arch Coal's issued and outstanding 7.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (CUSIP Nos. 039380AD2 and U0393CAB1) (the "original 2019 notes") from the registered holders thereof and (ii) to exchange up to $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (CUSIP No. 039380AG5) (the "new 2021 notes" and, collectively with the new 2019 notes, the "exchange notes") which have been registered under the Securities Act for a like principal amount of Arch Coal's issued and outstanding 7.250% Senior Notes due 2021 (CUSIP Nos. 039380AF7 and U0393CAC9) (the "original 2021 notes" and, collectively with the original 2019 notes, the "original notes") from the registered holders thereof. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Prospectus.

        For each original 2019 note accepted for exchange, the holder of such original 2019 note will receive a new 2019 note having a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the surrendered original 2019 note. For each original 2021 note accepted for exchange, the holder of such original 2021 note will receive a new 2021 note having a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the surrendered original 2021 note. Each series of exchange notes will bear interest from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the applicable series of original notes. Accordingly, registered holders of exchange notes on the relevant record date for the first interest payment date following the consummation of the exchange offer will receive interest accruing from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the original notes. The original notes accepted for exchange will cease to accrue interest from and after the date of consummation of the exchange offer. Holders of original notes whose original notes are accepted for exchange will not receive any payment in respect of accrued interest on such original notes otherwise payable on any interest payment date the record date for which occurs on or after the consummation of the exchange offer.

        This Letter is to be completed by a holder of original notes either if certificates for such original notes are to be forwarded herewith or if a tender is to be made by book-entry transfer to the account(s) maintained by the exchange agent at The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") pursuant to the procedures set forth in the section of the Prospectus titled "The Exchange Offer" and an agent's message is not delivered. Holders of original notes who have previously validly delivered a Letter of Transmittal in conjunction with a valid tender of original notes for exchange pursuant to the procedures described in the Prospectus under the heading "The Exchange Offer" are not required to take any further action to receive exchange notes. HOLDERS OF ORIGINAL NOTES WHO HAVE PREVIOUSLY VALIDLY TENDERED ORIGINAL NOTES FOR EXCHANGE OR WHO VALIDLY TENDER ORIGINAL NOTES FOR EXCHANGE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS LETTER MAY WITHDRAW ANY ORIGINAL NOTES SO TENDERED AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE. SEE THE PROSPECTUS UNDER THE HEADING "THE EXCHANGE OFFER" FOR A MORE COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF THE TENDER AND WITHDRAWAL PROVISIONS. Tenders by book-entry transfer also may be made by delivering an agent's message in lieu of this Letter. The term "agent's message" means a message, transmitted by DTC and received by the exchange agent and forming part of a book-entry confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from a participant tendering original notes that are the subject of the book-entry confirmation that the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Letter, and that Arch Coal may enforce that agreement against the participant. The term "book-entry confirmation" means the confirmation of the book-entry tender of original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC.

Delivery of Documents to DTC Does Not Constitute Delivery to the Exchange Agent.

        The method of delivery of original notes, this Letter and all other required documents are at the election and risk of the holders. If such delivery is by mail it is recommended that registered mail properly insured, with return receipt requested, be used. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to assure timely delivery. No Letters or original notes should be sent to Arch Coal.

PLEASE READ THE ACCOMPANYING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the exchange offer, the undersigned hereby tenders to Arch Coal the aggregate principal amount at maturity of original notes indicated above. Subject to, and effective upon, the acceptance for exchange of the original notes tendered hereby, the undersigned hereby sells, assigns and transfers to, or upon the order of, Arch Coal all right, title and interest in and to such original notes as are being tendered hereby.

        The undersigned hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the exchange agent as the undersigned's true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact with respect to such tendered original notes, with full power of substitution, among other things, to cause the original notes to be assigned, transferred and exchanged. The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer the original notes, and to acquire exchange notes issuable upon the exchange of such tendered original notes, and that, when the same are accepted for exchange, Arch Coal will acquire good and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and not subject to any adverse claim when the same are accepted by Arch Coal. The undersigned hereby further represents that, among other things, (i) the undersigned is not an "affiliate," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, of Arch Coal; (ii) the undersigned is acquiring the exchange notes in the exchange offer in the ordinary course of its business; (iii) the undersigned is not engaged in or does not intend to engage in, and does not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution, as defined in the Securities Act, of the exchange notes it will receive in the exchange offer; (iv) the undersigned is not holding original notes that have, or are reasonably likely to have, the status of an unsold allotment in the initial offering of original notes; and (v) the undersigned is not acting on behalf of a person who, to the undersigned's knowledge, falls into one of the above categories.

        The undersigned acknowledges that this exchange offer is being made in reliance on interpretations by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), as set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties that are not related to Arch Coal and that the exchange notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer in exchange for the original notes generally may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by holders thereof, without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that (i) the undersigned is not an "affiliate," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, of Arch Coal; (ii) the undersigned is acquiring the exchange notes in the exchange offer in the ordinary course of its business; (iii) the undersigned is not engaged in or does not intend to engage in, and does not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution, as defined in the Securities Act, of the exchange notes it will receive in the exchange offer; (iv) the undersigned is not holding original notes that have, or are reasonably likely to have, the status of an unsold allotment in the initial offering of original notes; and (v) the undersigned is not acting on behalf of a person who, to the undersigned's knowledge, falls into one of the above exceptions. The undersigned acknowledges that there is no assurance given by Arch Coal or the exchange agent that the SEC would make a similar interpretation with respect to this exchange offer. Arch Coal does not intend to seek its own interpretation from the SEC with respect to this exchange offer.

        If any holder is engaged in or intends to engage in or has any arrangement or understanding with respect to the distribution of the exchange notes to be acquired pursuant to the exchange offer, such holder (i) could not rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC and (ii) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction. If the undersigned is a broker-dealer that will receive exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes, it represents that the original notes to be exchanged for the exchange notes were acquired by it as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities

All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred in this Letter and every obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators, trustees in bankruptcy and legal representatives of the undersigned and shall not be affected by, and shall survive, the death or incapacity of the undersigned.

        If this Letter is signed by the holder of the original notes tendered hereby, the signature must correspond exactly with the name as written on the face of the certificates or on DTC's security position listing as the holder of such original notes without any change whatsoever.

        If any tendered original notes are owned of record by two or more joint owners, all of such owners must sign this Letter.

        If any tendered original notes are registered in different names on several certificates, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate copies of this Letter as there are different registrations of certificates.

        When this Letter is signed by the registered holder of the original notes specified herein and tendered hereby, no endorsements of certificates or separate bond powers are required. If, however, the exchange notes are to be issued, or any untendered original notes are to be reissued, to a person other than the registered holder, then endorsements of any certificates transmitted hereby or separate bond powers are required. Signatures on such certificate(s) must be guaranteed by a participant in a securities transfer association recognized signature program.

        If this Letter is signed by a person other than the registered holder of any certificate(s) specified herein, such certificate(s) must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate bond powers, in either case signed exactly as the name of the registered holder appears on the certificate(s), and signatures on such certificate(s) must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

        If this Letter or any certificates or bond powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing, and, unless waived by Arch Coal, proper evidence satisfactory to Arch Coal of their authority to so act must be submitted.

        Endorsements on certificates for original notes or signatures on bond powers required by this Instruction 3 must be guaranteed by a firm which is a financial institution (including most banks, savings and loan associations and brokerage houses) that is a participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program or the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (each an "Eligible Institution").

        Signatures on this Letter need not be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution, provided the original notes are tendered (i) by a registered holder of original notes (which term, for purposes of the exchange offer, includes any participant in DTC's system whose name appears on a security position listing as the holder of such original notes) who has not completed the box entitled "Special Issuance Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions" on this letter or (ii) for the account of an Eligible Institution.

10


4.     SPECIAL ISSUANCE AND DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS.

        Tendering holders of original notes should indicate in the applicable box the name and address to which exchange notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer and/or substitute certificates evidencing original notes not exchanged are to be issued or sent, if different from the name or address of the person signing this Letter. In the case of issuance in a different name, the employer identification or social security number of the person named also must be indicated. Holders tendering original notes by book-entry transfer may request that original notes not exchanged be credited to such account maintained at DTC as such holder may designate hereon. If no such instructions are given, such original notes not exchanged will be returned to the name and address of the person signing this Letter.

5.     TAXPAYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING.

        Federal income tax law generally requires that a tendering holder whose original notes are accepted for exchange must provide the exchange agent (as payor) with such holder's correct Taxpayer Identification Number (a "TIN"), which, in the case of a holder who is an individual, is generally such holder's social security number. If the exchange agent is not provided with the correct TIN or an adequate basis for an exemption, such holder may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service and backup withholding at the applicable rate, currently 28%, upon the amount of any reportable payments made after the exchange to such tendering holder. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained.

        To prevent backup withholding, each tendering holder must provide such holder's correct TIN by completing the Form W-9 accompanying this Letter, certifying that (i) the TIN provided is correct (or that such holder is awaiting a TIN), (ii) that (a) the holder is exempt from backup withholding, (b) the holder has not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that such holder is subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends or (c) the Internal Revenue Service has notified the holder that such holder is no longer subject to backup withholding and (iii) the holder is a U.S. citizen or other U.S. person (as defined in the enclosed Form W-9 General Instructions (the "W-9 General Instructions")).

        If the holder does not have a TIN, such holder should consult the W-9 General Instructions for instructions on applying for a TIN, write "Applied For" in the space for the TIN in Part 1 of the accompanying Form W-9 and sign and date the accompanying Form W-9 and the Certificate of Awaiting Taxpayer Identification Number set forth herein. If the holder does not provide such holder's TIN to the exchange agent within 60 days, backup withholding will begin and continue until such holder furnishes such holder's TIN to the exchange agent. Writing "Applied For" on the form means that the holder has already applied for a TIN or that such holder intends to apply for one in the near future.

        If the original notes are held in more than one name or are not in the name of the actual owner, consult the W-9 Instructions for information on which TIN to report.

        Exempt holders (including, among others, certain foreign persons) are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. To prevent possible erroneous backup withholding, an exempt holder should write "Exempt" in Part 2 of the accompanying Form W-9. See the W-9 General Instructions for additional instructions. In order for a nonresident alien or foreign entity to qualify as exempt, such person must submit a completed Form W-8 BEN, "Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding," signed under penalty of perjury attesting to such exempt status. Such form may be obtained from the exchange agent.

11


6.     TRANSFER TAXES.

        Arch Coal will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the transfer of original notes to it or its order pursuant to the exchange offer. If, however, exchange notes and/or substitute original notes not exchanged are to be delivered to, or are to be registered or issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of the original notes tendered hereby, or if tendered original notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing this Letter, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the transfer of original notes to Arch Coal or its order pursuant to the exchange offer, the amount of any such transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder or any other persons) will be payable by the tendering holder. If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is not submitted herewith, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed directly to such tendering holder. Except as provided in this Instruction 6, it will not be necessary for transfer tax stamps to be affixed to the original notes specified in this Letter.

7.     WAIVER OF CONDITIONS.

        Arch Coal reserves the right waive the conditions to the exchange offer enumerated in the Prospectus, in its discretion, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to the expiration of the exchange offer.

8.     NO CONDITIONAL TENDERS; DEFECTS.

        No alternative, conditional, irregular or contingent tenders will be accepted. All tendering holders of original notes, by execution of this Letter or an agent's message in lieu thereof, shall waive any right to receive notice of the acceptance of their original notes for exchange.

        Neither Arch Coal, the exchange agent nor any other person is obligated to give notice of any defect or irregularity with respect to any tender of original notes, nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give any such notice.

9.     MUTILATED, LOST, STOLEN OR DESTROYED ORIGINAL NOTES.

        Any holder whose original notes have been mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed should contact the exchange agent as described on the first page of this Letter for further instructions.

10.   WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS.

        Tenders of original notes may be withdrawn at any time prior to midnight, New York City time, at the end of the expiration date. For a withdrawal to be effective, the exchange agent must receive a computer-generated notice of withdrawal transmitted by DTC on behalf of the holder in accordance with the standard operating procedures of DTC, or a written notice of withdrawal, which may be by telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter, delivered to the exchange agent as described on the first page of this Letter. Any valid notice of withdrawal must (i) specify the name of the person having tendered the original notes to be withdrawn; (ii) identify the original notes to be withdrawn (including the certificate number(s) of the original notes physically delivered) and principal amount of such original notes, or, in the case of original notes transferred by book-entry transfer, the name of the account at DTC; and (iii) be signed by the holder in the same manner as the original signature on the letter of transmittal by which such original notes were tendered, with any required signature guarantees, or be accompanied by documents of transfer sufficient to have the trustee with respect to the original notes register the transfer of such original notes into the name of the person withdrawing the tender.

        If original notes have been tendered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer set forth in the section of the Prospectus titled "The Exchange Offer," any valid notice of withdrawal must

12


specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawn original notes and otherwise comply with the procedures of the facility.

        Arch Coal will determine all questions as to the validity, form and eligibility, including time of receipt, of notices of withdrawal, and Arch Coal's determination shall be final and binding on all parties. Arch Coal will deem any original notes so withdrawn not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offer. Arch Coal will return any original notes that have been tendered for exchange but that are not exchanged for any reason to their holder without cost to the holder. In the case of original notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent's account at DTC, according to the procedures described above, those original notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC, for original notes, as soon as practicable after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offer. Holders may retender their original notes that have been properly withdrawn by following one of the procedures described in the section of the Prospectus titled "The Exchange Offer" at any time before expiration of the exchange offer.

11.   REQUESTS FOR ASSISTANCE OR ADDITIONAL COPIES.

        Questions relating to the procedure for tendering, as well as requests for additional copies of the Prospectus, this Letter and other related documents may be directed to the exchange agent as described on the first page of this Letter.

  Part I Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)


Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. The TIN provided must match the name given on the "Name" line to avoid backup withholding. For individuals, this is your social security number (SSN). However, for a resident alien, sole proprietor, or disregarded entity, see the Part I instructions on page 3. For other entities, it is your employer identification number (EIN). If you do not have a number, see How to get a TIN on page 3.

Note. If the account is in more than one name, see the chart on page 4 for guidelines on whose number to enter.

  Part II Certification


Under penalties of perjury, I certify that:


1.

 

The number shown on this form is my correct taxpayer identification number (or I am waiting for a number to be issued to me), and

2.

 

I am not subject to backup withholding because: (a) I am exempt from backup withholding, or (b) I have not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that I am subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends, or (c) the IRS has notified me that I am no longer subject to backup withholding, and
    

3.

 

I am a U.S. citizen or other U.S. person (defined below).

Certification instructions. You must cross out item 2 above if you have been notified by the IRS that you are currently subject to backup withholding because you have failed to report all interest and dividends on your tax return. For real estate transactions, item 2 does not apply. For mortgage interest paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, contributions to an individual retirement arrangement (IRA), and generally, payments other than interest and dividends, you are not required to sign the certification, but you must provide your correct TIN. See the instructions on page 4.

General Instructions

Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless otherwise noted.

Purpose of Form

A person who is required to file an information return with the IRS must obtain your correct taxpayer identification number (TIN) to report, for example, income paid to you, real estate transactions, mortgage interest you paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, or contributions you made to an IRA.

     Use Form W-9 only if you are a U.S. person (including a resident alien), to provide your correct TIN to the person requesting it (the requester) and, when applicable, to:

     1. Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a number to be issued),

     2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or

     3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt payee. If applicable, you are also certifying that as a U.S. person, your allocable share of any partnership income from a U.S. trade or business is not subject to the withholding tax on foreign partners' share of effectively connected income.

Note. If a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request your TIN, you must use the requester's form if it is substantially similar to this Form W-9.

Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are:

• An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien,

• A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States,

• An estate (other than a foreign estate), or

• A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7).

Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding tax on any foreign partners' share of income from such business. Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received, a partnership is required to presume that a partner is a foreign person, and pay the withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a partner in a partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership to establish your U.S. status and avoid withholding on your share of partnership income.


 
    Cat. No. 10231X   Form W-9 (Rev. 12-2011)

Form W-9 (Rev. 12-2011)   Page 2

 

     The person who gives Form W-9 to the partnership for purposes of establishing its U.S. status and avoiding withholding on its allocable share of net income from the partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States is in the following cases:

• The U.S. owner of a disregarded entity and not the entity,

• The U.S. grantor or other owner of a grantor trust and not the trust, and

• The U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust) and not the beneficiaries of the trust.

Foreign person. If you are a foreign person, do not use Form W-9. Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 (see Publication 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities).

Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income. However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a "saving clause." Exceptions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise become a U.S. resident alien for tax purposes.

     If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items:

     1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.

     2. The treaty article addressing the income.

     3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the saving clause and its exceptions.

     4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption from tax.

     5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of the treaty article.

     Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law, this student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if his or her stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax on his or her scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a statement that includes the information described above to support that exemption.

     If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity not subject to backup withholding, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8.

What is backup withholding? Persons making certain payments to you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS a percentage of such payments. This is called "backup withholding." Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include interest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, and certain payments from fishing boat operators. Real estate transactions are not subject to backup withholding.

     You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on your tax return.

Payments you receive will be subject to backup withholding if:

     1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester,

     2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the Part II instructions on page 3 for details),

     3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN,

     4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only), or

     5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to backup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only).

     Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding. See the instructions below and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9.

     Also see Special rules for partnerships on page 1.

Updating Your Information

You must provide updated information to any person to whom you claimed to be an exempt payee if you are no longer an exempt payee and anticipate receiving reportable payments in the future from this person. For example, you may need to provide updated information if you are a C corporation that elects to be an S corporation, or if you no longer are tax exempt. In addition, you must furnish a new Form W-9 if the name or TIN changes for the account, for example, if the grantor of a grantor trust dies.

Penalties

Failure to furnish TIN. If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.

Civil penalty for false information with respect to withholding. If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no backup withholding, you are subject to a $500 penalty.

Criminal penalty for falsifying information. Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.

Misuse of TINs. If the requester discloses or uses TINs in violation of federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.

Specific Instructions

Name

If you are an individual, you must generally enter the name shown on your income tax return. However, if you have changed your last name, for instance, due to marriage without informing the Social Security Administration of the name change, enter your first name, the last name shown on your social security card, and your new last name.

     If the account is in joint names, list first, and then circle, the name of the person or entity whose number you entered in Part I of the form.

Sole proprietor. Enter your individual name as shown on your income tax return on the "Name" line. You may enter your business, trade, or "doing business as (DBA)" name on the "Business name/disregarded entity name" line.

Partnership, C Corporation, or S Corporation. Enter the entity's name on the "Name" line and any business, trade, or "doing business as (DBA) name" on the "Business name/disregarded entity name" line.

Disregarded entity. Enter the owner's name on the "Name" line. The name of the entity entered on the "Name" line should never be a disregarded entity. The name on the "Name" line must be the name shown on the income tax return on which the income will be reported. For example, if a foreign LLC that is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes has a domestic owner, the domestic owner's name is required to be provided on the "Name" line. If the direct owner of the entity is also a disregarded entity, enter the first owner that is not disregarded for federal tax purposes. Enter the disregarded entity's name on the "Business name/disregarded entity name" line. If the owner of the disregarded entity is a foreign person, you must complete an appropriate Form W-8.

Note. Check the appropriate box for the federal tax classification of the person whose name is entered on the "Name" line (Individual/sole proprietor, Partnership, C Corporation, S Corporation, Trust/estate).

Limited Liability Company (LLC). If the person identified on the "Name" line is an LLC, check the "Limited liability company" box only and enter the appropriate code for the tax classification in the space provided. If you are an LLC that is treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes, enter "P" for partnership. If you are an LLC that has filed a Form 8832 or a Form 2553 to be taxed as a corporation, enter "C" for C corporation or "S" for S corporation. If you are an LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner under Regulation section 301.7701-3 (except for employment and excise tax), do not check the LLC box unless the owner of the LLC (required to be identified on the "Name" line) is another LLC that is not disregarded for federal tax purposes. If the LLC is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner, enter the appropriate tax classification of the owner identified on the "Name" line.


Form W-9 (Rev. 12-2011)   Page 3

 

Other entities. Enter your business name as shown on required federal tax documents on the "Name" line. This name should match the name shown on the charter or other legal document creating the entity. You may enter any business, trade, or DBA name on the "Business name/ disregarded entity name" line.

Exempt Payee

If you are exempt from backup withholding, enter your name as described above and check the appropriate box for your status, then check the "Exempt payee" box in the line following the "Business name/ disregarded entity name," sign and date the form.

Generally, individuals (including sole proprietors) are not exempt from backup withholding. Corporations are exempt from backup withholding for certain payments, such as interest and dividends.

Note. If you are exempt from backup withholding, you should still complete this form to avoid possible erroneous backup withholding.

     The following payees are exempt from backup withholding:

     1. An organization exempt from tax under section 501(a), any IRA, or a custodial account under section 403(b)(7) if the account satisfies the requirements of section 401(f)(2),

     2. The United States or any of its agencies or instrumentalities,

     3. A state, the District of Columbia, a possession of the United States, or any of their political subdivisions or instrumentalities,

     4. A foreign government or any of its political subdivisions, agencies, or instrumentalities, or

     5. An international organization or any of its agencies or instrumentalities.

     Other payees that may be exempt from backup withholding include:

     6. A corporation,

     7. A foreign central bank of issue,

     8. A dealer in securities or commodities required to register in the United States, the District of Columbia, or a possession of the United States,

     9. A futures commission merchant registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission,

     10. A real estate investment trust,

     11. An entity registered at all times during the tax year under the Investment Company Act of 1940,

     12. A common trust fund operated by a bank under section 584(a),

     13. A financial institution,

     14. A middleman known in the investment community as a nominee or custodian, or

     15. A trust exempt from tax under section 664 or described in section 4947.

     The following chart shows types of payments that may be exempt from backup withholding. The chart applies to the exempt payees listed above, 1 through 15.

IF the payment is for . . .   THEN the payment is exempt for . . .
Interest and dividend payments   All exempt payees except for 9

1 See Form 1099-MISC, Miscellaneous Income, and its instructions.

2 However, the following payments made to a corporation and reportable on Form 1099-MISC are not exempt from backup withholding: medical and health care payments, attorneys' fees, gross proceeds paid to an attorney, and payments for services paid by a federal executive agency.

Part I. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)

Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien and you do not have and are not eligible to get an SSN, your TIN is your IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Enter it in the social security number box. If you do not have an ITIN, see How to get a TIN below.

     If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either your SSN or EIN. However, the IRS prefers that you use your SSN.

     If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner (see Limited Liability Company (LLC) on page 2), enter the owner's SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). Do not enter the disregarded entity's EIN. If the LLC is classified as a corporation or partnership, enter the entity's EIN.

Note. See the chart on page 4 for further clarification of name and TIN combinations.

How to get a TIN. If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately. To apply for an SSN, get Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card, from your local Social Security Administration office or get this form online at www.ssa.gov. You may also get this form by calling 1-800-772-1213. Use Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, to apply for an ITIN, or Form SS-4, Application for Employer Identification Number, to apply for an EIN. You can apply for an EIN online by accessing the IRS website at www.irs.gov/businesses and clicking on Employer Identification Number (EIN) under Starting a Business. You can get Forms W-7 and SS-4 from the IRS by visiting IRS.gov or by calling 1-800-TAX-FORM (1-800-829-3676).

     If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN, write "Applied For" in the space for the TIN, sign and date the form, and give it to the requester. For interest and dividend payments, and certain payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments, generally you will have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the requester before you are subject to backup withholding on payments. The 60-day rule does not apply to other types of payments. You will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments until you provide your TIN to the requester.

Note. Entering "Applied For" means that you have already applied for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon.

Caution: A disregarded domestic entity that has a foreign owner must use the appropriate Form W-8.

Part II. Certification

To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the withholding agent even if item 1, below, and items 4 and 5 on page 4 indicate otherwise.

     For a joint account, only the person whose TIN is shown in Part I should sign (when required). In the case of a disregarded entity, the person identified on the "Name" line must sign. Exempt payees, see Exempt Payee on page 3.

Signature requirements. Complete the certification as indicated in items 1 through 3, below, and items 4 and 5 on page 4.

     1. Interest, dividend, and barter exchange accounts opened before 1984 and broker accounts considered active during 1983. You must give your correct TIN, but you do not have to sign the certification.

     2. Interest, dividend, broker, and barter exchange accounts opened after 1983 and broker accounts considered inactive during 1983. You must sign the certification or backup withholding will apply. If you are subject to backup withholding and you are merely providing your correct TIN to the requester, you must cross out item 2 in the certification before signing the form.

     3. Real estate transactions. You must sign the certification. You may cross out item 2 of the certification.

"Other payments" include payments made in the course of the requester's trade or business for rents, royalties, goods (other than bills for merchandise), medical and health care services (including payments to corporations), payments to a nonemployee for services, payments to certain fishing boat crew members and fishermen, and gross proceeds paid to attorneys (including payments to corporations).

     5. Mortgage interest paid by you, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, qualified tuition program payments (under section 529), IRA, Coverdell ESA, Archer MSA or HSA contributions or distributions, and pension distributions.

Secure Your Tax Records from Identity Theft

Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information such as your name, social security number (SSN), or other identifying information, without your permission, to commit fraud or other crimes. An identity thief may use your SSN to get a job or may file a tax return using your SSN to receive a refund.

     To reduce your risk:

• Protect your SSN,

• Ensure your employer is protecting your SSN, and

• Be careful when choosing a tax preparer.

     If your tax records are affected by identity theft and you receive a notice from the IRS, respond right away to the name and phone number printed on the IRS notice or letter.

     If your tax records are not currently affected by identity theft but you think you are at risk due to a lost or stolen purse or wallet, questionable credit card activity or credit report, contact the IRS Identity Theft Hotline at 1-800-908-4490 or submit Form 14039.

     For more information, see Publication 4535, Identity Theft Prevention and Victim Assistance.

     Victims of identity theft who are experiencing economic harm or a system problem, or are seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been resolved through normal channels, may be eligible for Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) assistance. You can reach TAS by calling the TAS toll-free case intake line at 1-877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD 1-800-829-4059.

Protect yourself from suspicious emails or phishing schemes. Phishing is the creation and use of email and websites designed to mimic legitimate business emails and websites. The most common act is sending an email to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft.

     The IRS does not initiate contacts with taxpayers via emails. Also, the IRS does not request personal detailed information through email or ask taxpayers for the PIN numbers, passwords, or similar secret access information for their credit card, bank, or other financial accounts.

     If you receive an unsolicited email claiming to be from the IRS, forward this message to phishing@irs.gov. You may also report misuse of the IRS name, logo, or other IRS property to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 1-800-366-4484. You can forward suspicious emails to the Federal Trade Commission at: spam@uce.gov or contact them at www.ftc.gov/idtheft or 1-877-IDTHEFT (1-877-438-4338).

     Visit IRS.gov to learn more about identity theft and how to reduce your risk.

   


Privacy Act Notice

Section 6109 of the Internal Revenue Code requires you to provide your correct TIN to persons (including federal agencies) who are required to file information returns with the IRS to report interest, dividends, or certain other income paid to you; mortgage interest you paid; the acquisition or abandonment of secured property; the cancellation of debt; or contributions you made to an IRA, Archer MSA, or HSA. The person collecting this form uses the information on the form to file information returns with the IRS, reporting the above information. Routine uses of this information include giving it to the Department of Justice for civil and criminal litigation and to cities, states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. possessions for use in administering their laws. The information also may be disclosed to other countries under a treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce civil and criminal laws, or to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism. You must provide your TIN whether or not you are required to file a tax return. Under section 3406, payers must generally withhold a percentage of taxable interest, dividend, and certain other payments to a payee who does not give a TIN to the payer. Certain penalties may also apply for providing false or fraudulent information.
