General
1.Please generally revise the description of the Stockholder Proposals and the discussion
of them throughout the proxy statement to make clear that they are non-binding and
advisory in nature, and will not legally mandate any action by the Company.
Reasons For This Proxy Solicitation, page 1
2.We note the following statement on page 2: “During the strike, the Company idled one of
its two active mines and reduced production at its second mine.” Please revise this
statement to specify how long the relevant mine was idled.
3.On page 2, you state that the Company had idle mine and business interruption expenses
of $56 million in 2022. It does not appear that footnote 7 supports this amount of

expenses. Please revise or advise.
4.On page 4, you compare the Company’s sales between 2020 and 2022 with the sales of
Arch Resources, Inc. ("Arch") and Peabody Energy Corporation ("Peabody") between
2021 and 2022. Please add the sales of Arch and Peabody during 2020 to this comparison
to present these sales figures consistently.
5.On page 5, you include a graph showing the cumulative stock price return of the
Company’s common stock compared to Arch and Peabody based on the Company
omitting the Custom Composite Index from the Stock Performance Graph in its 2023
Annual Report. Please clarify whether this graph was prepared in accordance with Item
201(e) of Regulation S-K, or otherwise specify the methodology for preparing this graph.
Stockholder Proposal #1, page 6
6.We note the following statement on page 6: “When our Company originally announced
the NOL Rights Plan in 2020, the Company reported federal and state net operating losses
exceeding approximately $1.6 billion.” Please provide support for this amount of net
operating losses.
Stockholder Proposal #2, page 7
7.We note the following statement on page 8: “According to the Council of Institutional
Investors, proxy access is available in some form at over two-thirds of S&P 500
companies and one-fifth of Russell 3000 companies.” Consistent with footnote 25, please
revise this statement to clarify that proxy access is available in some form at less than
one-fifth of Russell 3000 companies.
Preliminary Proxy Card, page 15
8.On the second page of the preliminary proxy card, you state that “if you do not indicate an
instruction with respect to any of these Stockholder Proposals on the [color] proxy card,
the named proxies will cause your proxy to be voted ‘for’ the Stockholder Proposals.”
However, this statement appears to be inconsistent with the following disclosure on the
first page of the preliminary proxy card: “This proxy card grants no discretionary voting
authority . . . .” Please revise.
9.On your preliminary proxy card, you list “For”, “Against”, and “Abstain” as the three
voting options for Management Proposal #3. Please revise the voting options for
Management Proposal #3 to show “1 Year”, “2 Years”, “3 Years”, and “Abstain”
consistent with the Company’s preliminary proxy card. See Exchange Act Rule 14a-
4(b)(5).
10.On the last page of the preliminary proxy card, there appears to be a typo which may
cause stockholder confusion: "Where not [sic] voting instructions are given, the shares
represented by this proxy . . . ." Please revise.
