UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT
FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI


NOTES TO THE MONTHLY OPERATING REPORT


General Notes to the MOR:

1.
Introduction.

On April 13, 2016 (the "Petition Date"), Peabody Energy Corporation ("Peabody") and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively with Peabody, the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions for relief (the "Chapter 11 Cases") under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Missouri (the "Bankruptcy Court"). The Debtors continue to operate their businesses and manage their properties as "debtors-in-possession" pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. On April 29, 2016 the United States Trustee for the Eastern District of Missouri (the "U.S. Trustee") appointed a statutory committee of unsecured creditors pursuant to section 1102(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. Information contained herein may differ from the Debtors' Bankruptcy Court filings on the Petition Date due to more accurate information becoming available.

2.
Accounting Principles.

This Monthly Operating Report (the "MOR") includes information regarding the Debtors only and excludes or segregates information regarding non-Debtor affiliates. The financial statements and supplemental information contained herein are preliminary, unaudited, limited in scope, cover a limited time period and have been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements for chapter 11 debtors as required by the Bankruptcy Court. As discussed below, the financial statements and supplemental information contained herein may not comply with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") in all material respects. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the financial statements and supplemental information presented herein are complete, and readers are strongly cautioned not to place undue reliance on this MOR.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the books and records of the Debtors. The information furnished in this report includes primarily normal recurring adjustments but does not include all the adjustments that would typically be made for financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, the information contained herein has not been subject to the same level of accounting review and testing that would typically be applied to financial information in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, upon application of such procedures, the Debtors believe that the financial information in this report could be subject to changes, and these changes could be material.

3.
General Methodology.

The Debtors prepared this MOR relying primarily upon the information set forth in their books and records. Consequently, certain transactions that are not identified in the normal course of business in the Debtors' books and records may not be included in this MOR. Nevertheless, in preparing this MOR, the Debtors made reasonable efforts to supplement the information set forth in their books and records with additional information concerning transactions that may not have been identified therein, to the extent necessary.

4.
Past Performance.

The results of operations and financial position contained herein are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other period or for the full year and may not necessarily reflect the consolidated results of operations and financial position of the Debtors in the future.

5.
Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses.

To the best of the Debtors' knowledge, unaudited postpetition trade payables are current as well as all premiums for insurance policies (see MOR-4).

6.
Carrying Value of Assets.

Unless otherwise indicated, the values for assets contained in this MOR are book values as of the end of the month for the reporting period. Amounts ultimately realized from the disposition of the Debtors' assets may vary materially from the stated book value of the Debtors' assets. Thus, unless otherwise noted, this MOR reflects the carrying values of the assets as recorded on the Debtors' books and records as of the end of the month and are not based upon any estimate of their current market value. The Debtors reserve their rights to amend or adjust the value of each asset set forth herein.

NOTES TO THE MONTHLY OPERATING REPORT

7.
Intercompany Receivables/Payables.

In accordance with the Final Order Pursuant to Sections 345, 363(c)(1), 364, 503(b)(1) and 553 of the Bankruptcy Code: (i) Approving the Continued Use of the Debtors' Cash Management System, Bank Accounts and Business Forms; (ii) Granting a Waiver of the Requirements of Section 345(b) and Certain of the U.S. Trustee's Operating Guidelines; (iii) Permitting Continued Intercompany Transactions; (iv) Preserving and Permitting the Exercise of Intercompany Setoff Rights; and (v) Authorizing Banks to Honor Certain Transfers and Charge Certain Fees and Other Amounts [ECF No. 515], entered by the Bankruptcy Court on May 17, 2016, the Debtors maintain intercompany receivables and payables with certain Debtor and non-Debtor subsidiaries.

8.
Prepetition Liabilities.

As a result of commencing the Chapter 11 Cases, the payment of prepetition indebtedness is subject to compromise or other treatment under a chapter 11 reorganization plan unless authorized by court order. Generally, actions to enforce or otherwise effect payment of prepetition liabilities are stayed.

9.
Postpetition Liabilities.

Although payment of prepetition claims is generally not permitted, the Bankruptcy Court has authorized the Debtors to pay certain prepetition claims in designated categories and subject to certain terms and conditions. This relief generally was designed to preserve the value of the Debtors' business and assets. To the extent such claims have been categorized as "Postpetition Liabilities" herein, the Debtors reserve the right to dispute their obligations to make such payments and not pay such amounts if they believe the payment not to be in the best interest of the Debtors' estates. The Debtors have paid and continue to pay undisputed postpetition obligations in the ordinary course of business.

10.
Allocation of Prepetition and Postpetition Liabilities.

The Debtors have sought to record liabilities between the prepetition and postpetition periods based upon the information available at the time of, and research conducted in connection with, the preparation of this MOR. As additional information becomes available and further research is conducted, the Debtors may adjust liabilities between the prepetition and postpetition periods. The liability information, except as otherwise noted, is listed as of the close of business as of December 31, 2016. Accordingly, the Debtors reserve all rights to amend, supplement or otherwise modify this MOR as necessary and appropriate.

11.
Reservation of Rights.

Given the complexity of the Debtors' business, inadvertent errors or omissions or the overinclusion of contracts or leases may have occurred in the preparation of this MOR. Accordingly, the Debtors hereby reserve all rights to dispute the validity, status, enforceability or the executory nature of any claim amounts, representations or other statements in this MOR and reserve the right to amend or supplement this MOR, if necessary.

Nothing contained in this MOR shall constitute a waiver of the Debtors' rights or an admission with respect to the Chapter 11 Cases, including with respect to any issues regarding the Debtors' ownership interests, substantive consolidation, equitable subordination, defenses and/or causes of action arising under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code and any other applicable non-bankruptcy law.

REPORT OF OTHER SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

On December 2, 2016, the Debtors filed their motion for entry of an order authorizing the repayment of the Debtors' obligations under the DIP Credit Agreement and confirming the continued use of cash collateral (the DIP Repayment Motion).

On December 7, 2016, the Ad Hoc Committee of Convertible Noteholders filed a statement in support of the DIP Repayment Motion and the Debtors' motion, filed on November 30, 2016, to extend (i) the period during which the Debtors have the exclusive right to file a plan of reorganization through and including February 13, 2017 and (ii) the period during which the Debtors have the exclusive right to solicit acceptances thereof through and including March 17, 2017 (the Exclusivity Motion). On December 9, 2016, BOKF, N.A., the indenture trustee for the Debtors’ 4.75% Convertible Junior Subordinated Debentures due 2066, filed a similar statement.

The December DIP Amendment removed any deadline in the DIP Credit Agreement by which the Debtors must file with the Bankruptcy Court a plan of reorganization or disclosure statement with respect thereto. The stipulation also amends the Final DIP Order to extend the Adequate Protection Milestones (as defined in the DIP Final Order) related to the Debtors’ continued use of Cash Collateral (as defined in the DIP Final Order), including an extension of the date on which the Debtors must file a plan of reorganization and related disclosure statement to December 21, 2016.
