(a)    The Company's results in 2012 were impacted by challenging market conditions. In response to these conditions, the Company made the decision to close or idle 10 mines in Appalachia and curtailed production at other thermal mines. See Note 3, "Mine Closure and Asset Impairment Costs".

(b)    Challenging markets also resulted in impairment charges to goodwill relating to the Black Thunder mining complex in the second quarter of 2012 and two mines in Appalachia in the fourth quarter of 2012. See Note 7, "Goodwill".

(c)     The Company expensed costs related to the June 2011 acquisition of ICG $98.2 million, $4.7 million and $1.3 million in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2011, respectively.
