Subject:	Functional Management Team Announcements
Date:	May 16th, 2011

In April, I shared our approach to evaluating our operations, our organization and our leadership. I also committed that our new leadership team will build out the rest of the organization using a thoughtful and consistent process.

Today, the heads of Operations, Commercial, Strategy, Finance, Legal and the office of Running Right and Business Excellence will communicate their organization structures and management teams. Through our integration planning, I’m increasingly confident and excited by the strength of our combined team. With our post-closing operating model, organization and leadership teams in place for Day 1, we will meet our objectives of:

●	Setting an exceptional standard for leadership

●	Strengthening our combined operations and our ability to execute every part of our business plan

●	Focusing the collective energy of 14,000 people and providing the opportunity for all to contribute to and share in our success.

Today is a big step forward in our transformation as a global leader in the coal industry. Our goal is to have complete clarity of our new organizational structure so people know where they fit in.

We expect to complete the Alpha/Massey transaction on June 1, so Day 1 as a combined organization is only a few short weeks away. Our cooperation and mutual commitment to Running Right is driving amazing progress. I thank you for your patience as we work through these changes. This is an exciting time, and it’s enabling us to do great things.

Sincerely,

Kevin Crutchfield

CEO - Alpha Natural Resources

Subject:	Operations Organization
Date:	May 16th, 2011

Over the past few weeks I’ve been working with the Day 1 leadership for Operations to further define our structure and management teams. The planning team was diligent, committed, and thoughtful in their recommendations.

With the announcement in April you learned that Operations will be organized into five operating regions including three regions for CAPP (north, central and south), and will be managed by four senior vice presidents. Within the five regions will be a total of 12 Business Units (BU): one in the PRB, two in NAPP, and nine CAPP BUs (three in each region) that are each about seven million tons. The Massey Resource Groups will be part of the CAPP regions. The scale of our organization following Day 1 is impressive, and Operations is critical to driving Alpha’s success.

Today I’m sharing with you more detail about the Operations leadership and management, including the leadership structure within each business unit. This structure will become effective at Day 1. The cooperation between Massey and Alpha during this planning has been a hallmark of the performance we’ll deliver as a team.

In the next few weeks we will be a part of the 14,000 people leading one of America’s preeminent coal suppliers. We will be leaders in the coal industry and one of the largest suppliers of metallurgical coal in the world. Our operations, our organization, and our commitment to Running Right will be the backbone of our success. Thank you for your continued patience.

Sincerely,

Kurt Kost

Date:	May 16th, 2011

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been working with the Day 1 Strategy leadership team to further define our structure. This team’s responsibilities will include Government Affairs and Communications, Strategy, M&A and Corporate Development, Sustainability, Australia and Market Analysis & Strategy. Today I’m sharing with you more detail about the organization and some of the important changes regarding the team members which will be effective on Day 1. The Strategy organization reflects our commitment to a leadership position in the industry, and to provide insight to external issues that will influence our future and support our growth initiatives.

As part of an effort to develop our new office in Australia, I am pleased to welcome Peter Zachert as CFO of Alpha Australia, LLC and to announce Kevin Stanley will join the Australia team later this year as Director – Corporate Development.

Peter will immediately enhance Alpha’s ability to evaluate the many opportunities in the Australian market. Reporting to Brian Sullivan, President of Alpha Australia, LLC, he will assist the team in developing market intelligence, strategic relationships and coal assets in high growth markets. Peter’s executive background includes broad experience in finance, taxation, treasury and financial structuring in M&A in Australia and overseas. Most recently, Peter served as CFO of Elders Limited. Previous positions include Director and CFO of Cyprus Australia Coal Company, CFO of Delta Gold Limited and senior roles at other industry leaders. At Cyprus Australia, Peter worked with several members of Alpha’s leadership team, including Kevin Crutchfield and Frank Wood.

Kevin Stanley has been with Alpha for eight years and with the Strategy Group for nearly two. During this time, Kevin has consistently demonstrated his transaction, analytical and leadership skills, which will be important additions to the Australia team. He will be responsible for leading financial diligence and modeling for acquisition opportunities there, and for liaising with our M&A team to evaluate them.

I also am pleased to announce Amir Khaksari has been promoted to Manager of the Market Analysis & Strategy. Amir has been a key member of the team for two years, and his work and leadership on key initiatives have been instrumental in helping us develop our strategic and operational outlooks.

The cooperation between Massey and Alpha during this planning has been a hallmark of the performance we’ll deliver as a team. Our operations, our organization, and our commitment to Running Right will be the backbone of our success. Thank you for your continued patience.
