Sunrise Coal, LLC

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Organization

Sunrise Coal, LLC (Sunrise or the Company) was formed on November 1, 2002 as an Indiana limited liability company. The Company’s primary business is the production of coal from surface and underground mines throughout the United States for sale to utility and industrial markets. Existing mines are located in Indiana, and are part of the Illinois Basin.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sunrise Coal, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiary Devers Drilling Company, LLC (Devers). Devers renders services solely to its parent company Sunrise, and does not render services for any unrelated third party. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Accounting estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of highly-liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased. The Company had no cash equivalents at December 31, 2005 or 2004. At December 31, 2005, the Company's bank balance exceeded FDIC limits by $70,000.

Allowance for uncollectible receivables

The Company maintains allowances to reflect its trade accounts receivable and other receivables that may not be collectible based on past collection history, the economic environment and specific risks identified in the receivables composition. Receivables are considered past due if the full payment was not received by the contractual due date. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, there were no allowances reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

Inventories

Coal and supplies inventories are valued at the lower of average cost or market. Coal inventory costs include labor, supplies, equipment costs and overhead.

Advance royalties

Rights to develop leased coal lands may require payments of advance royalties. When those advance royalties may be recouped through future production, the payments are reflected as current or long-term assets, depending on the expected recovery period. As coal is produced, the payments are amortized and reflected as cost of coal sales in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Interest costs applicable to major asset additions are capitalized during the construction period. Expenditures that extend the useful lives of existing property, plant and equipment or increase the productivity of the assets are capitalized. The cost of maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful lives or increase the productivity of the assets are expensed as incurred. Property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the units-of-production method over the estimated recoverable reserves.

If facts and circumstances suggest that a long-lived asset may be impaired, the carrying value is reviewed for recoverability. If this review indicates that the carrying value of the asset will not be recoverable through estimated undiscounted future net cash flows related to the asset over its remaining life, then an impairment loss is recognized by reducing the carrying value of the asset to its estimated fair value.

For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company capitalized $226,000 and $0 of interest, respectively.

Exploration costs

Exploration costs, including costs to locate and evaluate economics of coal deposits, are expensed as incurred.

Deferred mine development

Costs of developing new coal mines, including asset retirement obligation assets, or significantly expanding the capacity of existing mines, are capitalized and amortized using the units-of-production method over estimated recoverable (proved and probable) reserves.

Revenue recognition

Coal sales are recognized when the risk of loss is transferred to a customer, and typically occurs at the point in time when the customer transports the product from the Company’s premises. Transportation costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of coal sales.

Asset retirement obligations

At the time they are incurred, legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets are reflected at their estimated fair value, with a corresponding charge to asset retirement obligation assets. Obligations are typically incurred when the Company commences development of either underground or surface mines, and include reclamation of support facilities and refuse areas.

Obligations are reflected at the present value of their discounted cash flows. The Company reflects accretion of the obligations for the period from the date they are incurred through the date they are extinguished. The asset retirement obligation assets are amortized using the units-of-production method over estimated recoverable (proved and probable) reserves.

The Company’s asset retirement obligations arise from the federal Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA) and similar state statutes. SMCRA and states require that mines be reclaimed to their previous condition in accordance with specific standards and approved reclamation plans, as outlined in mining permits. Activities include reclamation of pit and support acreage at surface mines, sealing portals at underground mines, and reclamation of refuse areas and slurry ponds.

The Company assesses it asset retirement obligations at least annually, and reflects revisions for permit changes as granted by state authorities, for revisions to the estimated reclamation costs, and for revisions to the timing of those costs.

The following table reflects the changes to the Company’s asset retirement obligations:

Balance, December 31, 2004	$	-
Additions		615,000
Accretion		-
Settlements		-
Revisions to previous estimates		-
Balance, December 31, 2005	$	615,000

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash and cash equivalents - the carrying amounts approximate fair value.

Debt - the carrying amounts approximate fair value.

3. Risk Concentrations

Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash in excess of the federally insured amount of $100,000 and trade receivables. Generally, credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition, and collateral is not required. The Company has not incurred a loss relating to these concentrations of credit risk.

Major customer

The Company markets its coal principally to electric utilities located in the United States of America. There have been no sales to customers in foreign countries. As of December 31, 2005, all of the accounts receivable were from one customer and, for the year ended December 31, 2005, all of the coal sales were from that same one customer.

Long-term contract

The Company is committed under a long-term contract to supply coal that meets certain quality requirements at specified prices ranging from $35.00 per ton to $36.06 per ton, as adjusted. At the option of the customer, quantities sold under this contract may vary from year to year. The primary term of the contract is for a period of three years from August 2005, the completion of the Company’s Howesville mine, and may be extended at the option of the Company for a period not to exceed December 31, 2010.

Transportation

The Company depends primarily on truck and rail transportation to deliver coal to its customers. Disruption of these services due to weather, mechanical issues, strikes, lockouts, bottlenecks and other events may have a temporary adverse impact on shipments and, consequently, to coal sales.

Labor

We do not currently have any labor agreements with unions, however, labor disruptions including strikes could have an adverse impact on our operations.

4. Notes Payable

Financial Institutions

Notes payable to financial institutions are comprised of loans with First Financial Bank (First Financial) in the amount of $9,147,522 and with Fifth Third Bank (Fifth Third) in the amount of $5,352,457, or a total of $14,499,979.

The loan with First Financial is comprised of two loans. The first loan was secured on May 25, 2005, and has a maturity of February 23, 2013. Of the loan in the aggregate gross amount of $9,000,000, $8,375,000 was available for the development and operation of the Company’s Howesville mine, and $625,000 was available for working capital. The loan initially bears interest at the rate of 1.50% plus the bank’s prime rate through February 25, 2006. Payments of interest only are required through February 25, 2006. Thereafter, the outstanding balance converts to a term loan that requires 84 monthly amortizing payments and bears interest at the rate of 2.50% over the bank’s five-year cost of funds.

The second loan was secured on November 25, 2005, and has a maturity date of May 25, 2006. The entire loan was available for working capital. The loan bears interest at the rate of 1.50% above the banks prime rate (8.75% at December 31, 2005) through maturity. Payments of interest only are required through maturity and, at maturity, the entire principal balance is due.

The loan with Fifth Third, as amended, was initially secured on July 29, 2005, and has a maturity date of July 29, 2010. The loan was available for development of the Company’s Howesville mine. The loan initially bears interest for one year (the draw period) at the rate of 1.50% plus the bank’s prime rate. Thereafter, the loan bears interest through maturity at the fixed rate of 2.50% plus the bank’s cost of money at the end of the end of the draw period ( 8.75% at December 31, 2005). Payments of interest only are required through the end of the draw period. Thereafter, the outstanding balance converts to a term loan that requires 48 monthly amortizing payments.

Both loans are secured by all of the Company’s real and personal property, guaranteed by all of the members of the Company, senior to the notes payable to members, and require the Company to comply with certain covenants.

Letters of credit

As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had outstanding letters of credit associated with mines reclamations of $701,000 and $0, respectively.

Subsequent event

On April 19, 2006, the Company entered into a new $30,000,000 facility with Old National Bank. The Line of Credit under the facility has a maturity of July 28, 2007. Thereafter, the Line of Credit balance converts to a Term Loan that has a maturity of July 28, 2012. The Line of Credit bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.55%, and the Term Loan bears interest at 8.50%. Monthly interest-only payments are required through the term of the Line of Credit. Thereafter, the Term loan requires monthly amortizing payments through maturity.

Proceeds of the Line of Credit were available to pay notes payable to First Financial, Fifth Third and Hallador Petroleum Company, to fund the acquisition of certain real and personal property at the Company’s Carlisle mine, and to fund working capital.

The loan is secured by all of the Company’s real and personal property, guaranteed by all of the members of the Company and Hallador Petroleum Company, senior to the notes payable to members, and require the Company to comply with certain covenants.

Members

As of December 31, 2005, Sunrise had notes payable to ten members in the aggregate gross amount of $2,500,000. The notes bear interest at the rate of 10.00% per annum, and are unsecured. The notes payable to members are subordinate to the notes payable to financial institutions. Each note is due in six years, and the maturities range from February 2011 through December 2011. The notes payable to members were converted to equity on July 31, 2006, the date that Hallador Petroleum Company acquired a majority interest in the Company.

5. Related Party Transactions

For the year ended December 31, 2005, three entities owned by four members of Sunrise provided services to the Company in the aggregate gross amount of $386,796.

6. Subsequent Events

Hallador Petroleum Company Acquisition

On July 31, 2006, the Company consummated a Purchase and Sales Agreement (PSA) that provided for the acquisition by Hallador of a 60% interest in the Company for $20,500,000. Terms of the PSA required Hallador to contribute, as of the date of acquisition, $7,500,000. Hallador will contribute additional capital of $13,000,000 over a period through no later than December 31, 2007. At the date of acquisition, a portion of the proceeds from Hallador were used to extinguish a then outstanding note payable to them in the amount of $5,000,000.

Howesville Mine

During June 2006, the Company determined that it was no longer operationally and economically feasible to continue production from its Howesville mine. Consequently, the mine will be shut down. This will result in an impairment charge to operations during the second quarter of 2006. Certain mining equipment will be relocated to the Company’s Carlisle mine.

Hallador Petroleum Company

From proceeds obtained with the Company’s $30,000,000 line of credit, the loan to Hallador was paid in full and, consequently, the Hallador note payable has been reflected as a current liability in the March 31, 2006 unaudited consolidated balance sheet.

4. Related Party Transactions

For the three months ended March 31, 2006, three entities owned by four members of Sunrise provided services to the Company in the aggregate gross amount of $160,485.

Pro forma financial information.

The unaudited pro forma financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2006, and for the year ended December 31, 2005, are below and give effect to the acquisition of a 60% interest in Sunrise Coal, LLC ("Sunrise") by Hallador Petroleum Company (the "Company").

On July 31, 2006, the Company acquired a 60% interest in Sunrise for $20,500,000. The terms of the agreement require the Company to contribute $7,500,000. The Company will contribute additional capital of $13,000,000 over a period through no later than December 31, 2007.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet was prepared as though the transaction had occurred on March 31, 2006.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006, and for the year ended December 31, 2005, was prepared as though the transaction occurred on January 1, 2005.

Adjustments for these transactions are reflected in the notes to the unaudited pro forma financial statements. You should read the unaudited pro forma financial statements and accompanying notes along with the historical financial statements included in the Company’s previous filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the audited and unaudited Sunrise financial statements included above.

The pro forma statements of operations were derived by adjusting the historical financial statements of the Company. The adjustments were based on currently available information. The actual adjustments, therefore, may differ from the pro forma adjustments. We believe, however, that the adjustments provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects of the transactions described above. The unaudited pro forma financial statements do not purport to present the Company’s results of operations had the acquisition or the other transaction actually been completed as of the dates indicated. Moreover, the statements do not project our financial position or results of operations for any future date or period.
