Notes:  March 15, 2019 -- Westmoreland Coal Company (“Westmoreland” or “the Company”) (OTCMKTS: WLBAQ) announced today that its Chapter 11 plan (“the Plan”) became effective today and that it has emerged from Chapter 11 as a privately held company owned and operated by a group of its former creditors. The United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Court”) approved the Plan on March 2, 2019. Through its plan of reorganization, the Company effectuated the sale of substantially all of their assets to a new entity, Westmoreland Mining LLC (“Westmoreland Mining”), created and controlled by the Company’s former first lien creditors that enabled the business to emerge from the restructuring process with enhanced financial flexibility, a stronger balance sheet and a renewed ability to focus on providing reliable and affordable energy products. Post-bankruptcy, Westmoreland Mining’s assets include an extensive portfolio of coal mining operations, including five operating mines in each of Canada and the U.S. supplying regional power producers, and one export mine in Canada. Westmoreland Mining’s assets will remain in operation under the same local leadership, and the business will continue operating in the normal course, preserving over a thousand jobs in the U.S. and Canada. Westmoreland Resource Partners, LP, which owns the Kemmerer mine, remains in Chapter 11 and its mining assets have not been acquired by Westmoreland Mining. _____________________ January 2, 2015 -- Westmoreland Coal Company (NasdaqGM: WLB, Oxford Resource Partners, LP (NYSE: OXF, the (MLP) and Oxford Resources GP, LLC, the general partner of Oxford (the GP), today announced the completion of Westmoreland’s acquisition of the GP and Westmoreland’s contribution of certain royalty-bearing coal reserves to the MLP in return for MLP common units, as well as Westmoreland’s acquisition of Buckingham Coal Company, LLC.
