Massey Energy cautions investors not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, as they speak only of Massey Energy's views as of the date the statement was posted at the Site. Massey Energy cautions readers that any forward looking information is not a guarantee of future performance and that actual results could differ materially due to various factors, including but not limited to factors listed from time to time in Massey Energy's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Massey Energy also wishes to caution investors that other factors in the future may prove to be important in affecting Massey Energy's results of operations. New factors may emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
