DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
A.T. Massey Coal Company, Inc. (“A.T. Massey”) was originally incorporated in Richmond, Virginia in 1920 as a coal brokering business. In the late 1940s, A.T. Massey expanded its business to include coal mining and processing. In 1974, St. Joe Minerals acquired a majority interest in A.T. Massey. In 1981, St. Joe Minerals was acquired by Fluor Corporation (“Old Fluor”). A.T. Massey was wholly owned by Old Fluor from 1987 until November 30, 2000. On November 30, 2000, a reverse spin-off (the “Spin-Off”) was completed, which separated Old Fluor into two entities: the “new” Fluor Corporation (“New Fluor”) and Old Fluor which retained the coal-related businesses and was subsequently renamed Massey Energy Company (“Massey”). Massey has been a separate, publicly traded company since December 1, 2000.
Prior to the Spin-Off, Old Fluor previously registered 4,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of its common stock, par value $0.625 per share (the “Common Stock”), on a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-95745) (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 31, 2000. The Shares were registered for issuance pursuant to the terms of the Fluor Corporation Salaried Employees’ Savings Investment Plan (the “Plan”).
On June 1, 2011, Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. (“Alpha”) completed its acquisition of the Company. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated January 28, 2011, among the Company and Alpha and Mountain Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Alpha (“Merger Sub”), the Company was merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”). The Company survived the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Alpha. A Certificate of Merger was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State and the Merger became effective on June 1, 2011 (the “Merger Date”).
As a result of the Merger, the Company has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. Accordingly, the Company hereby removes from registration the Shares registered but unsold under the Registration Statement as of the Merger Date.
Because the Plan was related to New Fluor, it was either terminated or transferred to New Fluor and therefore there currently is not a Massey-related Trustee for the Plan.
