In connection with the New Credit Agreement, Massey and certain of Massey’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries as well as certain of Alpha’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”), entered into an Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement dated as of June 1, 2011 (the “Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”), pursuant to which all obligations under the New Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantors, and all obligations under the New Credit Agreement, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all of Alpha’s assets and the assets of the Guarantors, including, in each case subject to customary exceptions and exclusions:

•

a first-priority pledge of all the equity interests owned by Alpha and the Guarantors (other than equity interests pledged to secure indebtedness incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition of certain restricted subsidiaries); provided that, in no event shall more than 65% of the issued and outstanding voting equity interests of any foreign subsidiary be pledged, and

•

a first-priority security interest in substantially all of Alpha’s and the Guarantors’ other tangible and intangible assets, including accounts (other than certain receivable assets), inventory, equipment, investment property, contract rights, intellectual property and proceeds of the foregoing; provided that, in no event shall any security interests be granted in any Excluded Assets (as defined in the New Credit Agreement).

Additionally, the obligations under the New Credit Agreement, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured by certain real property of Alpha and the Guarantors.

This description of the New Credit Agreement and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the New Credit Agreement and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

New Senior Notes Indenture

On June 1, 2011, Alpha, certain of Alpha’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries and Union Bank, N.A., as trustee, entered into an indenture (the “Base Indenture”) and a first supplemental indenture (the “First Supplemental Indenture”) governing Alpha’s newly issued 6% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”) and 6.25% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes” and, together with the 2019 Notes, the “New Senior Notes”). Also on June 1, 2011, in connection with the Merger, Massey and certain of Massey’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries as well as certain of Alpha’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”), Alpha and Union Bank, N.A., as trustee, entered into a supplemental indenture (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture and the First Supplemental Indenture, the “New Notes Indenture”) pursuant to which Massey and certain wholly owned subsidiaries of Massey agreed to guarantee the New Senior Notes.

The 2019 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6% per annum, payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2011, and will mature on June 1, 2019. The 2021 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.25% per annum, payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2011, and will mature on June 1, 2021.

The New Senior Notes are Alpha’s senior unsecured obligations, ranking senior in right of payment to all of Alpha’s future debt that is subordinated in right of payment to the New Senior Notes and ranking equally in right of payment with all of Alpha’s existing and future debt that is not subordinated in right of payment to the New Senior Notes. Each Guarantor’s guarantee of the New Senior Notes is an unsecured obligation of that Guarantor, ranking senior in right of payment to all of that Guarantor’s future debt that is subordinated in right of payment to that Guarantor’s guarantee and ranking equally in right of payment with all of that Guarantor’s existing and future debt that is not subordinated in right of payment to that Guarantor’s guarantee. The New Senior Notes are effectively junior to all of Alpha’s and the Guarantors’ secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that debt. The New Senior Notes are also subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of Alpha’s non-guarantor subsidiaries, including trade payables and lease obligations.

Alpha may redeem the 2019 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to June 1, 2014, at a price equal to 100.000% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes plus a “make-whole” premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date. Alpha may redeem the 2019 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time during the twelve months commencing June 1, 2014, at 103.000% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes, at any time during the twelve months commencing June 1, 2015, at 101.500% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes, and at any time after June 1, 2016, at 100.000% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date. In addition, Alpha may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings, at any time prior to June 1, 2014, at a redemption price equal to 106.000% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including the applicable redemption date, if at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2019 notes originally issued under the New Notes Indenture remains outstanding after the redemption and the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such equity offering.

Alpha may redeem the 2021 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to June 1, 2016, at a price equal to 100.000% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes plus a “make-whole” premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date. Alpha may redeem the 2021 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time during the twelve months commencing June 1, 2016, at 103.125% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes, at any time during the twelve months commencing June 1, 2017, at 102.083% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes, at any time during the twelve months commencing June 1, 2018, at 101.042% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes, and at any time after June 1, 2019, at 100.000% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date. In addition, Alpha may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings, at any time prior to June 1, 2016, at a redemption price equal to 106.250% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including the applicable redemption date if at least 65% of the

aggregate principal amount of the 2021 notes originally issued under the New Notes Indenture remains outstanding after the redemption and the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such equity offering.

Upon the occurrence of a change of control repurchase event with respect to either series of New Senior Notes, unless Alpha has exercised its right to redeem those New Senior Notes, Alpha will be required to offer to repurchase each holder’s New Senior Notes of such series at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

The New Notes Indenture contains covenants that limit, among other things, Alpha’s ability to:

•

incur, or permit the Guarantors to incur, additional debt;

•

issue, or permit the Guarantors to issue, certain types of stock;

•

pay dividends on Alpha’s or the Guarantors’ capital stock or repurchase our capital stock;

•

make certain investments;

•

enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates;

•

incur liens on certain assets to secure debt;

•

limit dividends or other payments by its restricted subsidiaries to Alpha and its other restricted subsidiaries;

•

consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets; and

•

make certain payments on Alpha’s or the Guarantors’ subordinated debt.

These covenants are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions. These covenants may not apply at any time after the New Senior Notes are assigned a credit grade rating of at least BB+ (stable) from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services and of at least Ba1 (stable) from Moody’s Investor Service, Inc.

This description of the New Notes Indenture and the New Senior Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture, which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
