	•		Registration Statement 333-130147 filed by the Registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 6, 2005 registering: (i) 8,000,000 shares common stock, par value $0.01 per share of the Registrant (“Common Stock”) relating to the 2005 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan, (ii) 206,250 shares of Common Stock relating to a Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement with Bennett K. Hatfield and (iii) 319,052 of Common Stock relating to a Restricted Stock Agreement with Bennett K. Hatfield.
	•		Registration Statement 333-141207 filed by the Registrant with the SEC on March 9, 2007 registering 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock relating to the International Coal Group, Inc. Director Compensation Plan.
	•		Registration Statement 333-161352 filed by the Registrant with the SEC on August 14, 2009 registering 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock relating to the Amended and Restated 2005 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan.

     On June 14, 2011, Arch Coal, Inc. (“Arch”), through its wholly owned subsidiary, Atlas Acquisition Corp. (“Merger Sub”), acquired one share more than 90% of the Registrant’s outstanding Common Stock following the successful completion of a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock, including the exercise by Merger Sub of a “top-up” option to purchase additional shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock. On June 15, 2011, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 2, 2011 (as amended), among Arch, Merger Sub and the Registrant, Arch completed its acquisition of the Registrant be effecting a “short form” merger under Delaware law whereby Merger Sub was merged with and into the Registrant, with the Registrant surviving such merger as the continuing corporation (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, the Registrant became a wholly owned subsidiary of Arch.

     As a result of the Merger, the Registrant has terminated all offerings of its Common Stock pursuant to the Registration Statements. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration all of such securities of the Registrant registered but unsold under the Registration Statements.
