ALLIANCE RESOURCE PARTNERS, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION AND PRESENTATION
Alliance Resource Partners, L.P. is a Delaware limited partnership formed
May 17, 1999, to acquire, own and operate certain coal production and marketing
assets of Alliance Resource Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("ARH")
(formerly known as Alliance Coal Corporation) and substantially all of its
operating subsidiaries (collectively, the "Partnership").
Prior to August 20, 1999, (i) MAPCO Coal Inc., a Delaware corporation and
direct wholly-owned subsidiary of ARH merged with and into Alliance Coal, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company ("Alliance Coal"), which prior to August 20,
1999 was also a wholly-owned subsidiary of ARH, (ii) several other indirect
corporate subsidiaries of ARH were merged with and into corresponding limited
liability companies, each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alliance Coal
and (iii) two indirect limited liability company subsidiaries of ARH became
subsidiaries of Alliance Coal as a result of the merger described in clause (i)
above. Collectively, the coal production and marketing assets and operating
subsidiaries of ARH acquired by the Partnership are referred to as the
"Predecessor." The Delaware limited partnerships and limited liability companies
that comprise the Partnership are as follows: Alliance Resource Partners, L.P.,
Alliance Resource Operating Partners, L.P. (the "Intermediate Partnership"),
Alliance Coal, LLC (the "Holding Company for Operations"), Alliance Land, LLC,
Alliance Properties, LLC, Backbone Mountain, LLC, Excel Mining, LLC, Gibson
County Coal, LLC, Hopkins County Coal, LLC, MC Mining, LLC, Mettiki Coal, LLC,
Mettiki Coal (WV), LLC, Mt. Vernon Transfer Terminal, LLC, Pontiki Coal, LLC,
Toptiki Coal, LLC, Webster County Coal, LLC, and White County Coal, LLC.
The accompanying financial statements and related notes present the
consolidated financial position as of September 30, 1999, and the results of its
operations, cash flows and changes in partners' equity for the period from
commencement of operations on August 20, 1999 to September 30, 1999. All
material intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The
combined financial statements of the Predecessor are for the periods indicated.
These consolidated and combined financial statements and notes thereto for
interim periods are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, these
financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the
periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results for a full year.
These consolidated and combined financial statements and notes are prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
for interim reporting and should be read in conjunction with the combined
financial statements and notes included in the Partnership's Registration
Statement on Form S-1, as amended (Registration No. 333-78845) (the
"Registration Statement").

<PAGE> 8
Initial Public Offering and Concurrent Transactions
On August 20, 1999, the Partnership completed its initial public offering
(the "IPO") of 7,750,000 common units ("Common Units") representing limited
partner interests in the Partnership at a price of $19.00 per unit.
Concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Partnership entered into a
contribution and assumption agreement (the "Contribution Agreement"), dated
August 20, 1999, among the Partnership and the other parties named therein,
whereby, among other things, ARH contributed its 100% member interest in
Alliance Coal, which is the sole member of fourteen subsidiary operating limited
liability companies, to the Intermediate Partnership. As a result of the
consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Contribution Agreement,
the Partnership holds a 98.9899% limited partner interest in the Intermediate
Partnership, and the Intermediate Partnership holds a 99.999% non-managing
member interest in Alliance Coal. The Partnership and the Intermediate
Partnership will be managed by the Managing GP, which, as a result of the
consummation of the transactions under the Contribution Agreement, holds (i) a
0.99% and 1.0001% managing general partner interest in the Partnership and the
Intermediate Partnership, respectively, and (ii) a 0.001% managing member
interest in Alliance Coal. Also as a result of the consummation of the
transactions completed under the Contribution Agreement, Alliance Resource GP,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of ARH
(the "Special GP"), holds, (i) 1,232,780 Common Units, (ii) 6,422,531
subordinated units ("Subordinated Units") convertible into Common Units in the
future upon the occurrence of certain events and (iii) a 0.01% special general
partner interest in each of the Partnership and the Intermediate Partnership.
Concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Special GP issued and the
Intermediate Partnership assumed the obligations under a $180 million principal
amount of 8.31% senior notes due August 20, 2014. The senior notes contain
various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including restrictions on the
incurrence of other debt. The Special GP also entered into and the Intermediate
Partnership assumed the obligations under a $100 million credit facility. The
credit facility consists of three tranches, including a $50 million term loan
facility, a $25 million working capital facility and a $25 million revolving
credit facility. The Partnership has drawn $50 million under the term loan
facility but has not drawn any money under either the working capital facility
or the revolving credit facility. The weighted average interest rate on the term
loan facility at September 30, 1999 was 6.38%. The credit facility agreement
expires August 2004. The credit facility contains various restrictive covenants,
including the amount of distributions by the Intermediate Partnership and the
incurrence of other debt. The credit facility also contains various financial
covenants. The Partnership was in compliance with the covenants of both the
senior notes and credit facility at September 30, 1999.
Consistent with guidance provided by the Emerging Issues Task Force in
Issue No. 87-21 "Change of Accounting Basis in Master Limited Partnership
Transactions", the Partnership maintained the historical cost of the $121.0
million of net assets received under the Contribution Agreement.
Analysis of Pro Forma Results of Operations
The pro forma results of operations for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 and 1998, are derived from the historical financial statements of the
Partnership from the commencement of operations on August 20, 1999 through
September 30, 1999 and the Predecessor for the period from January 1, 1999
through August 19, 1999 and January 1, 1998 through September 30, 1998. The pro
forma results of operations reflect certain pro forma adjustments to the
historical results of operations as if the Partnership had been formed on
January 1, 1998. The pro forma adjustments include (i) pro forma interest on
debt
-6-
<PAGE> 9
assumed by the Partnership and (ii) the elimination of income tax expense as
income taxes will be borne by the partners and not the Partnership. For the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, the pro forma total revenues would
have been approximately $216,662,000 and $277,719,000, respectively. For the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, the pro forma net income (loss)
would have been approximately $5,362,000 and $(6,018,000) and net income (loss)
per limited partner unit would have been $0.34 and $(0.38), respectively.
2. CONTINGENCIES
Transloading Facility Dispute
Mt. Vernon Transfer Terminal, LLC ("Mt. Vernon"), a Delaware limited
liability company, is currently involved in litigation with Seminole Electric
Cooperative, Inc. ("Seminole") with respect to a long-term contract for the
transloading of coal from rail to barge through Mt. Vernon's terminal in
Indiana. Seminole has filed a lawsuit to terminate this contract and is seeking
a declaratory judgment as to the damages owed to Mt. Vernon. The provisions of
the contract stipulate the calculation of damages to be paid in the event of
breach. Rather than pay the amount of damages stipulated, Seminole is seeking
the court's agreement that the proper damage award should be calculated based on
Mt. Vernon's loss of net profits from the terminal for the term of the
agreement.
Seminole has ceased transloading any coal shipments through this terminal
and is transporting coal deliveries under the supply contract by rail. Mt.
Vernon is currently exploring alternative uses for this terminal, including
shipping different products to other customers or selling the terminal. Mt.
Vernon intends to vigorously defend its contract rights and believes that it
will prevail in the determination of the amount of damages Seminole owes under
the contract and believes those damages will be in excess of the carrying value
of this terminal.
General Litigation
The Partnership is involved in various lawsuits, claims and regulatory
proceedings incidental to its business. In the opinion of management, the
outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Partnership's business, combined financial position or results of operations.
3. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On October 18, 1999, the Partnership declared a cash distribution of $0.23
per unit on its outstanding common and subordinated units. The distribution
represents the minimum quarterly distribution for the 42-day period from the
commencement of operations (on August 20, 1999) through September 30, 1999. The
$3.5 million distribution will be paid on November 12, 1999 to unitholders of
record on October 29, 1999.
