Amendment Description As previously reported, on May 21, 2021, Peabody Energy Corporation (the “Company”) entered into exchange agreements (the “Agreements”) with certain holders (the “Holders”) of the Company’s 6.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”), pursuant to which the Holders agreed to exchange up to $15,500,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes, subject to certain market and pricing conditions, for shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”). Pursuant to the Agreements, as of May 28, 2021 the Company issued or committed to issue an aggregate of 2,621,323 shares of Common Stock to the Holders in exchange for the full $15,500,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The issuances of shares of Common Stock in exchange for the Notes were made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933 on the basis that the exchange constitutes an exchange with existing securityholders of the Company and no commission or other remuneration was paid or given for soliciting the exchange.
