21.08.2014  |  PR Newswire

RICHMOND, Va., Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- James River Coal Company announced that it has accepted, subject to Bankruptcy Court approval, a committed and binding bid from JR Acquisition, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Blackhawk Mining, LLC, to purchase the Hampden Mining Complex (including the assets of Logan & Kanawha Coal Company, LLC), the Hazard Mining Complex (other than the assets of Laurel Mountain Resources LLC) and the Triad Mining Complex for $52,000,000 plus the assumption of certain environmental and other liabilities. Together these complexes employ over 900 employees of James River Coal Company

The winning bid was originally selected as the stalking horse bidder in advance of an auction held on August 18, 2014 through August 21, 2014 pursuant to Bankruptcy Court-approved bidding and auction procedures.  The three-day auction included multiple bids by multiple bidders.  Ultimately, the stalking horse bidder's winning bid at the conclusion of the auction included numerous structural enhancements and price improvements from the original stalking horse bid. 

The sale is expected to close on or about August 29, 2014 and is subject to customary closing conditions.  A Bankruptcy Court hearing is scheduled for August 26, 2014 to consider approval of the sale.
