High prices of alternative energy sources
91 gigawatts
of new coal-fired power plants in the U.S.
have been proposed or are under development
»
If only 50% actually are built, they would require
approximately 135 million additional tons of coal annually

Geographically Advantaged
In 2005, Massey’s steam
coal customers were
focused in the
Southeastern and Mid-
Atlantic states
Central Appalachia enjoys
tremendous transportation
advantages in these
markets, especially versus
PRB low sulfur coals


15
Powder River Basin Challenges
Greater exposure to rising freight rates and delivery
interruptions
Rail infrastructure capacity out of basin is constrained
Rail system interchange bottlenecks
Most advantaged markets have already switched
Utility switching costs to reconfigure boilers is high
Higher inventory requirements and shipment time delays


16
Challenges Facing Imports
SOURCE: Energy Ventures Analysis, Inc.
Port infrastructure constrained
Source risk –
not dependable for long-term secure
supplies
Weaker US dollar increases cost
Imports remain a small fraction of overall U.S. coal
consumption (2.7% in 2005)

Wage and Benefit Enhancements
Measured wage increases
Increased productivity and retention bonuses
Enhanced medical program benefits
Supplemental benefit programs to encourage
longevity, such as auto and homeowners
insurance
New medical facility established in 2005

Disclaimer
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: Certain statements in this presentation are forward-looking as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995.  Such forward-looking statements are based on facts and conditions as they exist at the time such statements are made as well as predictions as
to
future
facts
and
conditions
the
accurate
prediction
of
which
may
be
difficult
and
involve
the
assessment
of
events
beyond
the
Company’s
control.
Caution
must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements. Due to known and unknown risks, the Company’s actual results may differ materially from its
expectations
or
projections.
Factors
potentially
contributing
to
such
differences
include,
among
others:
market
demand
for
coal,
electricity
and
steel
which
could adversely affect the Company’s operating results and cash flows; future economic or capital market conditions; deregulation of the electric utility
industry; competition in coal markets; inherent risks of coal mining beyond the Company’s control, including weather and geologic conditions; the
Company’s ability to expand mining capacity; the Company’s production capabilities; the Company’s plan and objectives for future operations and
expansion or consolidation; failure to receive anticipated new contracts; customer cancellations of, or breaches to, existing contracts; customer delays or
defaults in making payments; the Company’s ability to manage production costs; the Company’s ability to timely obtain necessary supplies and equipment;
the Company’s ability to attract, train and retain a skilled workforce; fluctuations in the demand for, price and availability of, coal due to labor and
transportation costs and disruptions, governmental policies and regulatory actions, legal and administrative proceedings, settlements, investigations and
claims, foreign currency changes and other factors; and greater than expected environmental and safety regulation, costs and liabilities. The forward-
looking statements are also based on various operating assumptions regarding, among other things, overhead costs and employment levels that may not be
realized. While most risks affect only future costs or revenues anticipated by the Company, some risks might relate to accruals that have already been
reflected
in
earnings.
The
Company’s
failure
to
receive
payments
of
accrued
amounts
could
result
in
a
charge
against
future
earnings.
Information
concerning those factors is available in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
NON-GAAP INFORMATION: Included in this presentation are EBITDA results, which is defined as income before interest and taxes, depreciation,
depletion and amortization. Although EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
management
believes
that
it
is
useful
to
an
investor
in
evaluating
the
Company
because
it
is
widely
used
in
the
coal
industry
as
a
measure
to
evaluate a
company’s operating performance before debt expense and as a measure of its cash flow. EBITDA does not purport to represent operating income, net
income or cash generated by operating activities and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, because EBITDA is not calculated identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be
comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA can be found in the Company’s earnings press
release for the relevant periods.
