A total of 315,181,760 Common Shares were issued under the basic subscription privilege and an additional 64,730 Common Shares were issued under the additional subscription privilege. All of the Common Shares subscribed for under the additional subscription privilege have been allotted as the aggregate number of Common Shares subscribed for under the additional subscription privilege was less than the number of Common Shares available thereunder. As of the closing date, 736,599,086 Common Shares of Buffalo Coal are issued and outstanding. No fees or commissions were paid in connection with the distribution.
