(“NYSE Regulation”) has determined to commence proceedings to delist the common stock of the Company (symbol “ANR”) from the NYSE. Trading of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE was suspended at the market open on July 16, 2015.

The Company is presently considering what actions, if any, it may take in response to the decision.
The Company’s common stock resumed trading on the OTC Pink market under the ticker symbol “ANRZ” on July 17, 2015.
