Forward-Looking Information This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” – that is, statements related to future, not past, events. In this context, forward-looking statements often address our expected future business and financial performance, and often contain words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” or “will.” Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. For us, particular uncertainties arise from changes in the demand for our coal by the domestic electric generation industry; from legislation and regulations relating to the Clean Air Act and other environmental initiatives; from operational, geological, permit, labor and weather-related factors; from fluctuations in the amount of cash we generate from operations; from future integration of acquired businesses; and from numerous other matters of national, regional and global scale, including those of a political, economic, business, competitive or regulatory nature. These uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements. We do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. For a description of some of the risks and uncertainties that may affect our future results, you should see the risk factors described from time to time in the reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

State of Coal Markets

Over the long term, energy demand fundamentals remain favorable Cumulative Percent Change in Global Energy Consumption Worldwide Electric Generation & Forecast (2000-2008, in million tonnes of oil equivalent) (billion kilowatt hours) OECD Non-OECD 31.8 Coal 41% 23.2 Nat. Gas 25% 17.3 14.8 Hydro 19% 12.6 Oil 11% Nuclear 6% 1995 2000 2005 2015 2030 Coal has been the fastest-growing primary fuel source on the planet since 2000 Developing and developed world will continue to drive demand for coal – Population growth and increased electrification needs are key drivers

World coal consumption is certain to expand further Coal Consumption (in millions of short tons) 2007 2030 9,917 7,193 4,882 2,893 1,129 1,363 Total World China U.S. Total World China U.S.

Coal’s advantage: billions of tonnes abundant, secure and widely dispersed of oil equivalent 200 Coal 100 Natural Gas 0 Oil Russia North America Europe Middle East China India Other Asia Pacific Central and South America Africa Based on current production levels and proven reserves, coal should outlast both gas supplies and oil reserves by more than 3 times

Looking ahead, global and domestic metallurgical coal markets are beginning to show some signs of life Global economic recession severely World Steel Capacity Utilization impacted steel production during (in annualized %) 4Q08 and 1H09 – North American and European 94% 86% 87% 89% 84% 85% steel operations were hardest hit 75% – Inventory de-stocking at steel centers 61% 60% 58% 50% 53% Utilization rates are now climbing –off drastically low levels – Chinese steel utilization was 94% of capacity in Sept. 2009, up from the low of 67% in Nov. 2008 NAFTA EU S. America Asia – U.S. steel utilization grew to roughly 62% in Oct. 2009 from the low of 42% 2008 1H09 3Q09* in Jan. 2009 – ACI has seen an increase in inquiries from met coal customers across Asia, Brazil, U.S. and Europe

Global coal supply flows continue to shift – and create further opportunities for U.S. met/steam coal exports Atlantic Basin Market = 43% of global seaborne trade in 2008 Increasing Russia: Coal exports to Asia are Moderating increasing, while coal exports to Decreasing Europe are decreasing Europe: coal production declining; growing coal burn in eastern Europe; traditional import supply waning USA: potential growing seaborne supplier with available export capacity; emerging supplier to Pacific Rim South America: infrastructure constraints; political instability; growing regional coal burn South Africa: 40% of coal exports could flow to India in 2009; domestic needs and infrastructure constraints limit export growth What if 2008 repeats itself? Who will supply coal in Atlantic Basin?

Despite a temporary global downturn in coal demand, structural constraints and Asian demand pull remain “The lack of investment spent by Australian infrastructure providers over the past decade has resulted in severe rail and port bottlenecks.” Macquarie (6/07) “China which became a net importer of coal this year, increased purchases of the fuel 27% in April to meet higher energy demand.” Bloomberg (5/07) “India is expecting to double its South African coal imports during 2007. High demand and a halt in Chinese exports of coal are thought to be the cause of this increase.” Reuters (5/07) “Production is shifting away from West Virginia because the state has presented coal producers with difficult regulations, torrents of litigation and orchestrated hostility that discouraged growth and investment.” The State Journal (5/07) “The vessel queue at Dalrymple Bay Coal Terminal has continued its inexorable rise, surpassing the previous record of 76 reached in Sept. 2007.” McCloskey (11/09) “China, the world’s largest coal user and producer, increased imports of the fuel in September to meet rising domestic consumption following an economic recovery ...and were more than triple what the country imported a year earlier.” Bloomberg (10/09) “South African coal exports to India continue to rise at record rates and now make up for more than a third of South Africa’s exports.” J.P. Morgan (11/09) “Due in part to the U.S. EPA’s recent crackdown on surface mining permits, coal production in Central Appalachia is expected to fall well short of 200 million tons in 2010.” FBR (9/09)

Coal consumption growth in 2010 and continued supply rationalization should draw down excess coal stockpiles Estimated Coal Stockpile Levels Arch anticipates that coal demand at U.S. Power Generators and coal production will be balanced (in millions of tons) by end of 2009 (if not already) – Growth in underlying domestic economy (GDP), particularly as industrial activity resumes – Continued supply rationalization – Reversal of coal-to-gas switching – Return of more seasonal weather – Increased U.S. coal exports – Steam coal migrates to met market – Likely reversal of share gains in other baseload fuels (nukes, hydro)

U.S. coal consumption growth will also benefit from new plant start-ups Anticipated Annual Supply Needs for U.S. Coal Plants Under Construction* Build-out of 16 GW through 2012 (in millions of tons) equates to 55 million tons Arch estimates that the Powder River Basin will service one half of this demand Nearly 10 GW – roughly 20 plants –are scheduled to be in operation by the end of 2010, representing roughly two-thirds of the total anticipated growth in annual coal demand from new plants

In the U.S., coal production also continues to shift westward as CAPP is in long-term secular decline Production in Central Appalachia 300 (in millions of tons) Supply +3% 275 250 Supply +2% Supply +4% Price +120% 225 Price +150% Price +270% 200 175 150 97 98 99 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09E 10E Sharp price run-ups have acted to arrest production declines only temporarily Arch expects 2010 CAPP production to be down 125 million tons from ‘97 peak Based on historical trend, most of that supply reduction is likely to be permanent

Arch completes acquisition of Jacobs Ranch on Oct. 1 Purchase price of $764 million, which includes an 1 mile estimate for working capital adjustments Formerly The enhanced Black Thunder will be the largest Jacobs Ranch single coal-mining complex in the world – Assigned coal reserves of 1.6 billion tons (as of Dec. 31, 2008) Black Thunder – Productive capacity of more than 140 million tons (Arch Coal) per year should market conditions warrant Arch estimates synergies from the transaction of between $45 million and $55 million annually, School beginning in 2010, which represents more than Creek $1 per ton of annual production (Peabody) – Roughly half represent operational cost savings with North Antelope/Rochelle the remaining related to administrative cost savings (Peabody) as well as enhanced coal-blending opportunities
