      On July 31, 2004, the Company purchased the 35% interest in Canyon Fuel that it did not own from ITOCHU Corporation.

Net of cash acquired, the fair value of the transaction totaled $97.4 million. As a result of the acquisition, the Company owns all of the ownership interests of Canyon Fuel and consolidates Canyon Fuel in its financial statements. The results of operations of the Canyon Fuel mines are included in the Company’s Western Bituminous segment.
