ITEM 1.04 MINE SAFETY – REPORTING OF SHUTDOWNS AND PATTERNS OF VIOLATIONS
On July 21, 2010, the Dodd−Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Act") was enacted. Section 1503 of the Act included new reporting requirements related to mine safety, including disclosing on a Current Report on Form 8-K the receipt of an imminent danger order under Section 107(a) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act") issued by the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration ("MSHA").
On February 3, 2025, Hamilton County Coal, LLC (“Hamilton”), an operating subsidiary of the Partnership, received an imminent danger order under Section 107(a) of the Mine Act at the Hamilton Mine No. 1. The order was issued by MSHA’s inspector following alleged detection of methane in or around both the tailgate bleeder entries and longwall face of Hamilton’s Headgate 8 longwall. Prior to the order’s issuance, all equipment within the affected area had been de-energized and the section foreman was actively working to improve any potential ventilation issues. Following the order’s issuance, corrective actions continued and no miners were injured as a result of the condition alleged. The order has been terminated and Hamilton may seek judicial review of the order’s issuance.
