Employee Q&A

Alpha Natural Resources Acquisition

Rebranding to Cliffs Natural Resources

7/16/08

Who is Alpha Natural Resources?

Alpha Natural Resources, headquartered in Abingdon, VA, is one of the largest suppliers and exporters of metallurgical coal in North America, and a leading supplier of thermal coal. Currently, Alpha’s operations consist of 57 mines and 11 coal preparation and blending plants over four states. They currently employ more than 3,600 people.

Why does Cliffs want to acquire Alpha Natural Resources?

The addition of Alpha complements Cliffs’ corporate vision, and the continued execution of our global expansion and diversification strategy. This combination will result in the creation of one of the largest US mining companies; with over 60 total coal mines and more than 8,900 employees. Combined, Cleveland-Cliffs and Alpha will be the largest U.S. producer of metallurgical coal. Together with our leading position in North American iron ore, we will be able to further diversify our business portfolio and provide further opportunities for growth.

Why are we changing our name to Cliffs Natural Resources?

Changing our name follows naturally from this dramatic transformation; we believe “Cliffs Natural Resources” better reflects our new status as a major diversified supplier to the global steel industry. Many customers, partners and media outlets already refer to our company as “Cliffs”, so we expect the name change will occur with minimal disruption to our day-to-day business operations.

We’re getting a new name; will we also be getting a new logo and colors?

Yes. A comprehensive new brand identity will be part of this name change. We will keep you informed as we proceed through the rebranding process.

Will we still be headquartered in Cleveland?

Yes. Our World Headquarters will be at 200 Superior; our association with the city plays an important role in our long legacy, and, in addition, it is well positioned for conducting international business.

Will there be any changes to our organizational structure as a result of this acquisition? What will happen to the North American Coal business unit?

Joseph Carrabba will serve as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Cliffs Natural Resources, while Michael Quillen, Alpha’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, will serve as non-executive Vice Chairman. Kevin Crutchfield, currently the President of Alpha Natural Resources, is expected to serve as President of Cliffs Natural Resources’ coal businesses. Donald Gallagher, currently President of Cliffs North American business unit, will become president of Cliffs Natural Resources’ iron ore businesses.

How will this affect employees? Will there be any layoffs as a result?

This transaction is about growth, and we do not expect significant workforce reductions. In fact, over the long term, we believe that this combination will result in greater opportunities for employees of both companies as we move forward and grow together.

Will there be any changes to employee benefits and plans as a result of this acquisition?

There are no current planned changes to any of our stock plans or other benefits.

How will this acquisition affect our customers, and the communities where we operate?

The combination of our companies’ complementary operations will more comprehensively serve the growing world steel industry. We do not anticipate customers will experience any changes as a result of this acquisition. There will be no interruption in mine production or quality, and we expect to maintain current service levels. We do not expect the communities in which our mines are located will experience any substantial changes.

When will this acquisition be completed?

The acquisition is subject to regulatory approvals and approvals by both companies’ shareholders – it is expected to close by the end of 2008. Until then, we remain separate companies.

Who can I contact if I have any more questions?

We will make every effort to keep you up to date on important developments throughout this process. In the interim, please contact your immediate supervisor. You can also read about the latest developments at OneCliffs.com.
