sales agreement, effective January&nbsp;1, 2006, with Louisville Gas and Electric Company, (&#147;LG&amp;E&#148;). At the end of the primary six-year term, the parties have the option to extend the new agreement for an incremental 16.0&nbsp;million
tons of coal over an additional four years. Under the new agreement, beginning January&nbsp;1, 2006, Alliance Coal will ship annually up to 4.0&nbsp;million tons of coal directly to LG&amp;E or as feedstock for synfuel produced for the benefit of
LG&amp;E. Since 2001, Alliance Coal and its affiliates have supplied annually approximately 2.4&nbsp;million tons of Illinois Basin coal to LG&amp;E, either directly or as synfuel feedstock, under existing coal supply agreements. The new agreement
represents an increase of approximately 1.6&nbsp;million tons over coal shipments historically supplied by Alliance Coal&#146;s subsidiaries, Hopkins County Coal, LLC, (&#147;HCC&#148;), Webster County Coal, LLC, and Warrior Coal, LLC. </FONT></P>

from HCC&#146;s Elk Creek mine, located near Madisonville, Kentucky, which is being developed as an underground mining complex utilizing continuous mining units employing room-and-pillar mining techniques. (See ARLP Press Release dated
October&nbsp;21, 2004.) Production from the Elk Creek mine is currently estimated at 2.1&nbsp;million tons of coal during 2006 with production expected to increase to approximately 3.8&nbsp;million tons of coal annually beginning in 2007. HCC
intends to expand its existing coal handling and other surface facilities to accommodate the coal production capabilities of the Elk Creek mine. These improved infrastructure facilities, which are expected to be completed by mid-2006, will include
modifications to HCC&#146;s existing preparation plant and installation of an overland belt conveyor. Total capital expenditures to develop the Elk Creek mining complex are currently estimated at $68.8 million, of which approximately $33.0 million
was incurred during 2005 and approximately $35.8 million is expected to be incurred in 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
