Exhibit A-2

1.    To be eligible to receive a recovery from the Net Settlement Fund as a Member of the Settlement Class in the class action lawsuit entitled In re Massey Energy Co. Securities Litigation, No. 5:10-cv-00689-ICB, pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia, you must complete and, on page ___ below, sign this Proof of Claim and Release form. If you fail to submit a timely, properly completed and addressed (as set forth in paragraph 3 below) Proof of Claim, your claim may be rejected and you may be precluded from any recovery from the Net Settlement Fund created in connection with the Settlement of the Action.

2.    Submission of this Proof of Claim, however, does not ensure that you will share in the Net Settlement Fund, even if you are a Settlement Class Member.

3.    YOU MUST SUBMIT YOUR COMPLETED AND SIGNED PROOF OF CLAIM SUCH THAT IT IS POSTMARKED OR RECEIVED ON OR BEFORE ___________, 2014, ADDRESSED AS FOLLOWS:

If you are NOT a Member of the Settlement Class (as defined below and in the Notice of Pendency of Class Action and Proposed Settlement and Motion for Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses (“Notice”)) DO NOT submit this Proof of Claim form. You are not entitled to a recovery.

4.    If you are a Member of the Settlement Class and you have not timely and validly requested to be excluded from the Settlement Class, you will be bound by the terms of the Final Order and Judgment entered by the Court, WHETHER OR NOT YOU SUBMIT A PROOF OF CLAIM.

1.    All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Notice that accompanies this Proof of Claim and in the Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement, dated February 5, 2014 (the “Stipulation”).

1.    You are a Settlement Class Member if you, between February 1, 2008 and July 27, 2010, inclusive, purchased or otherwise acquired shares of the common stock of Massey Energy Company (n/k/a Alpha Appalachian Holdings, Inc.) (“Massey” or the Company”) and were damaged thereby and are not an Excluded Person. Excluded from the Settlement Class are: (i) Defendants; (ii) ANR; (iii) the officers and directors of Massey during the Class Period; (iv) all of Massey’s subsidiaries during the Class Period; (v) members of the immediate families of any excluded Person; (vi) the legal representatives, heirs, successors or assigns of any excluded Person; (vii) any entity in which any Defendant or ANR has or had a controlling interest; and (viii) any Person who would otherwise be a Settlement Class Member but who properly excludes himself, herself, or itself by filing a valid and timely request for exclusion in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Notice.

2.    If you purchased or acquired the common stock of Massey during the Class Period and held the stock in your name, you are the beneficial purchaser or acquirer as well as the record purchaser or acquirer. If, however, you purchased or otherwise acquired Massey common stock during the Class Period through a third party, such as a nominee or brokerage firm, and the shares were registered in the name of that third party, you are the beneficial purchaser or acquirer of these shares, but the third party is the record purchaser or acquirer of these shares.

3.    Use Part I of this form entitled “Claimant Identification” to identify each beneficial purchaser or acquirer of Massey common stock that forms the basis of this claim, as well as the purchaser or acquirer of record if different. THIS CLAIM MUST BE SUBMITTED BY THE ACTUAL BENEFICIAL PURCHASER(S), OR AUTHORIZED ACQUIRER(S) OR LEGAL

REPRESENTATIVE(S) OF SUCH BENEFICIAL PURCHASER(S) OR ACQUIRER(S), OF THE MASSEY COMMON STOCK ON WHICH THIS CLAIM IS BASED.

4.    All joint beneficial purchasers or acquirers must sign this claim. Executors, administrators, guardians, conservators and trustees must complete and sign this claim on behalf of Persons represented by them and their authority must accompany this claim and their titles or capacities must be stated. The Social Security (or employer identification) number and telephone number of one of the beneficial owner(s) may be used in verifying this claim. Failure to provide the foregoing information could delay verification of your claim or result in rejection of your claim.

1.    Use Part II of this form entitled “Schedule of Transactions in Massey Common Stock” to supply all required details of your transaction(s) in Massey common stock. If you need more space or additional schedules, attach separate sheets providing all of the required information in substantially the same form. Sign and print or type your name and include your Social Security or employer identification number and the full name of the account on each additional sheet.

2.    On the schedules, provide all of the requested information with respect to: (i) all of your holdings of Massey common stock as of the beginning of trading on February 1, 2008; (ii) all of your purchases, acquisitions, and sales of Massey common stock which took place at any time beginning February 1, 2008 through, and including, [____]; and (iii) proof of your holdings in Massey common stock as of the close of trading on [____] whether such purchases, acquisitions, sales or transactions resulted in a profit or a loss. Failure to report all such transactions may result in the rejection of your claim.

3.    List each purchase, acquisition, sale, and transaction in the Class Period separately and in chronological order, by trade date, beginning with the earliest. You must accurately provide the month, day, and year of each such transaction you list.

4.    Copies of broker confirmations or other documentation of your purchases, acquisitions, sales or transactions in Massey common stock must be attached to your claim. DO NOT SEND ORIGINALS. Failure to provide this documentation could delay verification of your claim or result in rejection of your claim. The Settling Parties and the Claims Administrator do not independently have information about your investments in Massey’s common stock. The Claims Administrator may also request additional information as needed to efficiently and reliably calculate your losses.
