Concurrent with the closing of the Business Combination on August 12, 2010, CDR completed its previously announced private placement of $4,685,000 in gross proceeds, representing an aggregate of 23,425,000 units (the "CDR Units") at a price of $0.20 per Unit (the "Private Placement"). Each CDR Unit is comprised of one common share of CDR (the "CDR Shares") and one common share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share of CDR at a price of $0.20 for a period of five years from the closing of the Private Placement. Northern Securities Inc. and Salman Partners Inc. (collectively, the "Agents") acted as agents on a best efforts basis in connection with the brokered portion of the Private Placement. Pursuant to the terms of the Private Placement, the Agents, along with other placement agents, were paid an aggregate of $226,000 in cash commissions and were issued an aggregate of 1,030,300 broker warrants, each exercisable to purchase one CDR Unit at $0.20 for a period of 60 months from the closing of the Private Placement.
The Amalgamation became effective on August 12, 2010, the date the Certificate of Amalgamation was issued in respect of the Business Combination under the OBCA. Pursuant to the Amalgamation and after giving effect to the Consolidation: (i) each two (2) Amalfi Shares will be exchanged for one common share of Royal Coal ("Resulting Issuer Share") upon receipt of the required documentation from each shareholder; (ii) each CDR Share was exchanged for one Resulting Issuer Share; and (iii) each holder of a post-Consolidation Amalfi Share received 0.28235525 of a Royal Coal new common share purchase warrant ("Resulting Issuer New Warrant") for each Amalfi Share held, each whole warrant entitling the holder to acquire one Resulting Issuer Share at a price of $0.20 per share for two years from the closing of the Business Combination, resulting in the issuance of 1,657,143 Resulting Issuer New Warrants. In addition, the other outstanding convertible securities of each of Amalfi and CDR were replaced/continued into securities of the Royal Coal as disclosed below under the heading "Fully Diluted Share Capital of the Resulting Issuer".
Amendments to Debt Arrangements
Third Eye Capital Corporation ("TEC") and Juno Special Situations Corporation ("Juno") agreed to amend the note purchase agreement dated September 30, 2009 between Juno and TEC (the "TEC Loan") and the corresponding note purchase agreement dated September 30, 2009 between CDR and Juno (the "Juno Loan", and together with the TEC loan the "Indebtedness") to waive certain covenants that were not achieved by CDR, and establish updated financial and production, interest and repayment covenants. In accordance with such amendments, US$1,000,000 was paid to reduce the Indebtedness (the "Closing Repayment") from the proceeds from the Private Placement and US$450,000, representing unpaid waiver fees, was added to the Indebtedness. The outstanding amount of the Indebtedness after payment of the Closing Repayment was US$5,750,000, plus the US$2 per ton royalty capped at 3,105,000 tons referenced in the Filing Statement. The royalty payment commitment maturity date was extended from March 31, 2011 to January 31, 2012.
CDR also entered into an agreement with Juno, which amended the terms of the Juno Loan. In accordance with such agreement, Juno granted CDR an option to convert the principal amount of the Juno Loan into Resulting Issuer Shares at a conversion price equal to the greater of (i) $0.20 and (ii) the weighted average market price of the Resulting Issuer's shares for the 20 trading days prior to the date notice is received exercising the option. The option is exercisable at any time up until 20 days prior to the maturity date of the Juno Loan, which is March 31, 2011. CDR's option to convert is subject to CDR using its best efforts to find alternative financings to repay the Juno Loan in cash, CDR not being in default under the Juno Loan, and the payment of increased royalty payments to Juno of US$0.10 per ton of coal for each US$1,000,000 principal amount of the Juno Loan converted. CDR remains a guarantor of Juno's debt obligations to TEC, an arm's length lender, in respect of which CDR has granted a general security interest over its assets.
GC Global Capital Inc.'s convertible debenture with CDR in the amount of $375,000 was amended such that $25,000 was paid on closing of the Private Placement and the balance of the principal will be repaid over the period ending December 31, 2011.
Upon closing of the Private Placement, CDR paid Cheyenne Resources Inc. US$800,000 of the principal amount owing under its convertible debentures with CDR (the "CDR Cheyenne Debentures"). The principal amount of the CDR Cheyenne Debentures after this payment was US$4,200,000 and the maturity date of the CDR Cheyenne Debentures was extended to January 31, 2012.
CDR also entered into agreements (the "CDR Debt Settlement") with two arm's length third parties (the "Trade Creditors"), pursuant to which CDR has agreed to issue 4,125,000 CDR Units with an aggregate value of $825,000 to the Trade Creditors in exchange for the cancellation of $825,000 in outstanding trade payables.
Amendment to Previous Financing
In accordance with their agreements (the "January Unit Agreements") with CDR, investors who subscribed for an aggregate of 2,200,000 units of CDR at a price of $0.50 per unit in January 2010 received an additional 3,300,000 CDR Shares for no additional consideration (so, following the closing of the Business Combination, they held an aggregate of 5,500,000 Resulting Issuer Shares). In addition, the 2,200,000 share purchase warrants originally forming part of such units were cancelled and such investors instead received 5,500,000 common share purchase warrants of the Resulting Issuer (the "Resulting Issuer CDR 2010 Warrants"). Each whole Resulting Issuer CDR 2010 Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one Resulting Issuer Share at a price of $0.20 per share until August 12, 2015. One of the investors in the units was Juno, which received 1,800,000 additional CDR Shares and 3,000,000 Resulting Issuer CDR 2010 Warrants pursuant to the above-noted amendments. See Principal Securityholders of the Resulting Issuer below.
Filing Statement Amendments and Updated Financial Statements
The following information updates and replaces, as applicable, the disclosure about the Resulting Issuer, including disclosure about the Resulting Issuer's expected business objectives, milestones, pro forma consolidated capitalization, intended use of funds and fully diluted share capital, set out in Amalfi's filing statement dated March 29, 2010 (the "Filing Statement") which is available on SEDAR and Amalfi's press releases issued on May 17, May 31 and July 23, 2010.
The interim financial statements of CDR for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are attached hereto and marked Exhibit "A" and the pro forma financial statements of the Resulting Issuer as at March 31, 2010 are attached hereto and marked Exhibit "B". The interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2010 of Amalfi are available on SEDAR.
Capitalized terms used in the following sections that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Filing Statement.
OPERATIONS UPDATE
Mining at the Big Branch (Cheyenne) surface mine has been continuous since the acquisition of the mine on October 1, 2009. The Resulting Issuer has averaged coal production of 30,553 tons per month over the past 8 months and the proceeds of the CDR Private Placement will be used to increase production to a targeted 65,000 tons per month beginning October 2010. The Resulting Issuer intends to make capital expenditures of US$2,400,000 at the Big Branch (Cheyenne) surface mine as follows: US$950,000 will be expended on the current mining fleet to repair key components; the balance of US$1,450,000 will be used to acquire additional equipment enabling the production forecast of 65,000 tons per month beginning in October 2010.
BUSINESS OBJECTIVES
The Resulting Issuer will concentrate its efforts on developing an asset base in the central Appalachian coal producing region of the United States, and may expand internationally as opportunities allow. The central Appalachian area includes parts of West Virginia, Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio and Tennessee. Central Appalachia's history of producing large volumes of thermal and metallurgical coal, along with the under-utilized coal infrastructure already in place make the area ideal for the implementation of business model. Coal assets in the area can be acquired and brought into production relatively quickly.
The Resulting Issuer's principal initial business objective is to utilize its available working capital and available cash flow from operations to achieve its principal milestones as described below.
MILESTONES
The principal milestones necessary to be achieved by Royal Coal in 2010 and 2011 in order for Royal Coal to achieve success in its business plan are:
Project Milestone Target Cost Date ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Big Add scheduled equipment and add fourth September US$ 1,450,000 Branch production spread of equipment to increase 2010 production Own permit; post bonding November US$ 1,000,000 2011
WORKING CAPITAL OF THE RESULTING ISSUER
Based on current working capital projections, the Resulting Issuer's working capital available to fund ongoing operations, together with its revenue from operations and the proceeds of the Private Placement, is expected by management of the Resulting Issuer to meet its work program and administration costs for a minimum of 18 months without further additional capital. The projections of the Resulting Issuer assume the following factors: (a) coal production will be from the Big Branch (Cheyenne) mine only; (b) coal production from the Big Branch (Cheyenne) mine of 34,000 tons per month initially and increasing to 65,000 tons per month beginning October 2010; (c) further capital equipment expenditures of US$2,400,000 as described above; (d) average coal prices of US$61 for the balance of 2010 and US$69.50 in 2011 which are based on existing contracts and contract prices currently being negotiated by the Resulting Issuer. The price assumptions of the Resulting Issuer for 2011 are based on prevailing market prices and the forward price curve for the Resulting Issuer's grade of coal. The Resulting Issuer is currently negotiating coal sales contracts for 2011 at the projected prices; and (e) average mining costs per ton of US$54 for the balance of 2010 and US$50 in 2011, which are based on actual costs of the Resulting Issuer experienced to date and projected to the end of 2010. The average mining costs projected for 2010 are based on current costs of the Resulting Issuer adjusted for anticipated changes in materials and labour. Significant risks to be considered include, without limitation, the risk that the Resulting Issuer might not receive the prices for its coal that are used in its projections; the Resulting Issuer's production costs coming in higher than expected; the Resulting Issuer's production levels and availability (uptime) of the coal production equipment being lower than expected; the Resulting Issuer being unable to acquire necessary equipment for purchase or lease; non-cooperation of suppliers and management with respect to significant current and past due accounts payable and compensation owing; the Resulting Issuer not being able to renew its lease on the Charlene rail load-out facility it uses to ship coal; the Resulting Issuer not meeting its outstanding financial or payment covenants in relevant loan arrangements and related future production targets; and the other factors discussed under "Risk Factors" in the Filing Statement.
The minimum 18 month working capital projections of the Resulting Issuer assume that CDR will exercise its option in March 2011 to convert the principal amount of the Juno Loan into Resulting Issuer Shares.
As at March 31, 2010, Royal Coal will have a pro forma consolidated working capital deficiency of US$3,943,822. The opening pro forma consolidated working capital of Royal Coal was calculated after giving effect to the following:
Pro forma as at March 31, 2010 after giving effect to the Qualifying Transaction ---------------------------------------- Expenses of CDR for the Amalgamation US$120,000 Expenses of Amalfi for the US$388,000 Amalgamation ---------------------------------------- US$508,000
In the three months ending March 31, 2010, CDR's cost of sales of $8.53 million exceeded its revenue of $5.76 million due to CDR's higher than expected costs of opening multiple mining areas on the Big Branch property and repairing and maintaining its used fleet of equipment. Royal Coal expects that its planned expenditures on capital equipment using proceeds from the Private Placement, as noted below, combined with improved equipment maintenance and mine planning will increase production to profitable levels.
USE OF CASH PROCEEDS FROM PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Royal Coal intends to, or will have used, the gross cash proceeds from the Private Placement (US$4,612,128), and the pro forma cash balance at March 31, 2010 ($5,271,478) as follows:
Use of Cash Proceeds from Private Placement - US$(1) ------------------------- Expenditures on capital equipment at Big branch $ 1,450,000 Mining Operations Payment in respect of the Indebtedness $ 1,000,000 Payment in respect of GC Global Capital Inc.'s $ 24,272 convertible debenture Payment in respect of the CDR Cheyenne Debentures $ 800,000 Expenses for the Business Combination $ 508,000 General and Administrative Expenses $ 829,856 Notes: (1) Notwithstanding its pro forma consolidated working capital deficiency of US$3,943,822 as at March 31, 2010, Royal Coal believes that it has sufficient funds to carry out its operations, based on the assumptions set out above under "Working Capital of the Resulting Issuer".
Royal Coal intends to spend the funds available to it on completion of the Qualifying Transaction to further its stated business objectives. However, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be necessary in order for Royal Coal to achieve its stated business objectives.
Management of Royal Coal estimates that the aggregate monthly general and administrative expenses to be incurred by Royal Coal will be approximately US$167,000, for an aggregate of approximately US$2,040,000 per annum. These expenses are expected to be paid from available working capital and cash-flow from operations. Based on a management prepared budget, revenues from the operations of Royal Coal are expected to cover the estimated administration costs of Royal Coal upon the closing of the Amalgamation.
CONSOLIDATED CAPITALIZATION OF THE RESULTING ISSUER
The expected capitalization of the Resulting Issuer, after giving effect to the Qualifying Transaction and CDR Private Placement, is as follows:
Outstanding in the Resulting Issuer After Giving Effect to the Qualifying Transaction and Capital Authorized Certain Matters (1) ---------------------------------------- -------------- -------------------- (unaudited) Long-term Debt N/A US$4,730,936 (2) Current Portion of Long-Term Debt N/A US$369,167 (2) Resulting Issuer Shares Unlimited US$14,261,329(3) (94,250,007)(4)(5) Resulting Issuer special shares Unlimited Nil Notes: (2) Pursuant to the Amalfi Stock Option Plan, the Resulting Issuer has reserved 11,291,331 Resulting Issuer Shares for stock options. (3) See the pro forma financial statements of the Resulting Issuer as at March 31, 2010 attached as Exhibit "B" hereto. Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the Cheyenne Debentures and the CDR Global debentures are classified as long term debt, since the undiscounted face value of $4,550,000 is not payable within 12 months of the Qualifying Transaction. The Juno Loan maturity date of March 31, 2011 is less than 12 months from the Qualifying Transaction date, resulting in the $5,750,000 undiscounted face value of the Juno Loan being reclassified as current debt. (4) In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for a reverse takeover transaction, the dollar value of the share capital of Resulting Issuer after the completion of the Amalgamation will be the dollar value of the share capital of CDR immediately prior to completion of the Amalgamation, together with the net value of Amalfi. In addition, the deficit of Resulting Issuer will be the deficit of CDR immediately prior to the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, which as at March 31, 2010 after the deduction of stock-based compensation costs, commissions, consultant fees and related expenses is (US$15,126,025). (5) Not including any Resulting Issuer Shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of any convertible securities of the Resulting Issuer. (6) See Fully-Diluted Share Capital Table below.

1. Nature of operations and going concern
CDR Minerals Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of Ontario. The Company's principal business is the acquisition and development of high quality coal mining operations in the Central Appalachian Basin of the United States and base metal exploration in Quebec.
The Company was in the exploration stage until September 30, 2009 when it acquired and commenced coal mining operations at its Big Branch property near Hazard, Kentucky.
The Company has not yet determined whether it's Quebec mineral property interest contains reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of amounts shown for mineral property interests is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete the exploration and development of its mineral property interests, the existence of economically recoverable reserves and future profitable production, or alternatively, upon the Company's ability to recover its costs through a disposition of its mineral property interests. The amounts shown for mineral resource properties do not necessarily represent present or future value. Changes in future conditions could require a material change in the amount recorded for mineral property interests.
The Company is exposed to commodity price risk with respect to coal and base metal prices. A significant decline in coal and base metal prices may affect the Company's ability to obtain capital for the exploration and development of its mineral property interests.
The Company has not yet demonstrated profitable production at its Big Branch property and additional funding is required to finance its operations and the exploration of mineral resource properties. There is substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is actively seeking to raise the necessary capital to meet its funding requirements. Although the Company has been successful in raising funds to date, there can be no assurance that additional funding will be available in the future. As such, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and balance sheet classifications that would be necessary were the going concern assumption inappropriate, and these adjustments could be material.
2. Significant accounting policies
These unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared using accounting policies that are consistent with the policies used in preparing the Company's annual financial statements. Generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements do not conform in all respects to the disclosures required for annual financial statements, and accordingly, these unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements.
Inventory
Coal inventory, valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value, is measured at the average production cost for extraction and is relieved on a first-in, first-out basis. Production costs include direct labour, benefits, direct materials and other direct production costs, including depletion and amortization. Given the significant costs in the first year of operations, the inventory costs exceeded the net realizable value and as such, the inventory has been written down to its net realizable value at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010.
Future accounting changes
On January 1, 2011, the Company will adopt CICA Handbook Section 1582, "Business Combinations", which will replace Section 1581, "Business Combinations". The new standard establishes standards for the recognition and measurement of identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, non-controlling interest in the acquiree and goodwill acquired in a business combination.
On January 1, 2011, the Company will adopt CICA Handbook Sections 1601, "Consolidated Financial Statements" and Section 1602, "Non-controlling Interests", which together will replace section 1600, "Consolidated Financial Statements". Section 1601 establishes standards for the preparation of consolidated financial statements and Section 1602 establishes standards for accounting for a non- controlling interest in a subsidiary in consolidated financial statements subsequent to a business combination.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the requirements of the new standards.
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"):
In February 2008, the CICA Accounting Standards Board confirmed that the changeover to IFRS from Canadian generally accepted accounting principles will be required for publicly accountable enterprises, effective for the interim and annual financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Accordingly, the Company will report interim and annual financial statements in accordance with IFRS commencing with the interim financial statements for the 3 months ended March 31, 2011. The transition date of January 1, 2011, will require the restatement for comparative purposes of amounts reported by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010. While the Company has begun assessing the adoption of IFRS for 2011, the financial reporting impact of the transition to IFRS cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
3. Investment
The Company owns 50,000 common shares of Royal Nickel Corporation, a Canadian private company, related by virtue of common directors, which is mainly engaged in the business of Nickel mining. The Canadian dollar investment cost of C$100,000 is translated to US dollars at the closing rate on the date of the balance sheet.

10. Asset retirement obligations
The Company's asset retirement obligations result from its land rehabilitation commitments on the coal mining activities on its Big Branch property. At December 31, 2009 the total discounted obligation estimated to settle the asset retirement obligation using a credit adjusted risk free interest rate of 18% over the estimated five year life of the mine is $2,086,000. The sum of the undiscounted total cash flows anticipated to be incurred over 5 years ending December 31, 2014 is $3,228,876. The change in the balance for the three months ended March 31, 2010 represents the accretion ($11,995) on the obligation (YE December 31 2009 - additions $251,109 and accretion $11,470).
The estimate of the obligation is subject to significant estimates by management. The ultimate costs could be materially different from the amounts estimated, dependant on changes to applicable laws and regulations, discount rates and life of the mine operation. Future changes to the obligation will be treated as a change in accounting estimate in the period in which the change is known.
11. Segmented information
The Company operates in one reportable segment, mineral exploration, in Canada and the U.S. Financing and administrative functions are provided by the head office located in Canada. Segmented information on a geographic basis is as follows:

The Company's objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue to explore and develop its mineral property interests for the benefit of its shareholders. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments based on the funds available to the Company in light of changes in economic conditions.

There were no changes in the Company's management of its capital during the three month period ended March 31, 2010.
The Company is subject to externally imposed capital requirements pursuant to notes payable and convertible debenture agreements.
14. Financial instruments and risk management
Fair value
Fair value represents the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged between willing parties, based on current markets for instruments with the same risk, principal and remaining maturity. Fair values estimates are based on quoted market values and other valuation methods.
Fair value represents the amount that would be exchanged in an arm's length transaction between willing parties and is best evidenced by a quoted market price, if one exists. The carrying and fair values of financial assets and liabilities as at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 are summarized as follows:
March 31, 2010 December 31, 2009 Carrying Carrying Fair Value Value Fair Value Value $ $ $ $ Cash 440,844 440,844 800,099 800,099 Accounts receivable 1,116,402 1,116,402 243,093 243,093 Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 6,285,272 6,285,272 3,189,764 3,189,764 Bank loan 506,125 506,125 - - Notes payable 11,448,953 4,759,067 9,653,993 2,860,792 Convertible debentures 5,100,103 5,100,103 5,026,697 5,026,697
The investment in a private company is classified as available-for-sale and is carried at its acquisition cost. The carrying value of the held-for-trading and loans and receivables financial instruments approximates fair value.
Risk disclosures
The main risks the Company's financial instruments are exposed to are credit, liquidity, and market risk (including currency and interest rate risk) each of which is discussed below.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations The Company's exposure to credit risk includes cash and accounts receivable. The Company reduces its credit risk by maintaining its primary bank accounts at large international financial institutions. The Company assesses their credit risk based on general market knowledge and specific information obtained through its business relationships with each of customer. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of cash and accounts receivables. The Company made sales to its two major customers, as well as to five other customers in the period.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure as outlined in note 14 to the consolidated financial statements.
At March 31, 2010, the Company had current assets of $2,428,149, including cash of $440,844, (December 31, 2009 - $2,083,276 and $800,099, respectively) available to pay current liabilities of $11,919,631 (December 31, 2009 - $5,546,576). The following are the maturities, including interest payments and excluding the option to extend repayment of a portion of notes payable to March 31, 2012, and a possible early redemption of convertible debentures subject to terms disclosed in note 5, reflecting undiscounted future cash disbursements of the Company's financial liabilities based on years ending December 31:
Payments Required/Settlement expected 2010 2011 $ $ ------------------------------ Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 6,285,272 - Bank loan 207,045 276,060 Notes payable 5,152,500 8,098,500 Convertible debentures 975,000 5,150,000 ------------------------------ 12,619,817 13,524,560 ------------------------------
Market risk
Market risk is the risk of less that may arise from changes in market factors, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates.
(a) Foreign currency risk
The Company operates in Canada and the US giving rise to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company periodically monitors foreign exchange rates, though it has not entered into any financial arrangements to hedge or protect the Company from unfavourable changes in foreign exchange rates. A ten percent (10%) fluctuation in the foreign exchange rate, based on the Company's foreign denominated financial instruments as of March 31, 2010, would result in a foreign exchange gain in the case of a decrease in the exchange rates or a loss in the case of an increase in the rates of approximately $140,000 (December 31, 2009 - $66,000).
(b) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Cash is invested in high grade, highly liquid instruments and as such the Company manages its exposure to potential interest rate fluctuations to short term. A 1% fluctuation in the floating interest rate would affect the profitability of the Company by an immaterial amount.
15. Commitments
The Company, in connection with the acquisition of the Big Branch property, entered into an agreement to lease mining equipment for $232,677 per month for the two years ended September 29, 2011. At March 31, 2010 the Company's equipment and premises lease commitments totaled $3,205,627 for 2010 and $2,620,689 for 2011. None of these commitments extend beyond 2011.

1. Basis of presentation
Amalfi Capital Corporation ("Amalfi") is a capital pool corporation which has not commenced commercial operations.
On January 5, 2010, Amalfi, CDR Coal Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amalfi ("CDR Coal") and CDR Minerals Inc. ("CDR") entered into an Amalgamation Agreement to complete a three-cornered amalgamation whereby CDR will amalgamate with CDR Coal and Amalfi will issue one common share for each common share of CDR outstanding ("Qualifying Transaction"). The completion of the Qualifying Transaction is subject to certain conditions, including obtaining all necessary regulatory approvals.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma balance sheet has been prepared by management for inclusion in the Press release of Amalfi dated August 12, 2010 ("Press Release"). This pro forma balance sheet has been prepared from information derived from the unaudited balance sheet of Amalfi as at March 31, 2010, the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of CDR as at March 31, 2010 and the audited balance sheet of CDR as at December 31, 2009, together with other information available to the companies.
Management believes the pro forma balance sheet includes all adjustments necessary for fair presentation of the proposed transactions as described above.
The pro forma balance sheet may not be indicative either of the results that actually would have occurred if the events reflected herein had taken place on the dates indicated or of the results that may be obtained in the future. The pro forma balance sheet should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Amalfi and CDR referred to above and the Filing Statement.
2. Pro forma assumptions and adjustments prior to the completion of the Qualifying Transaction
The pro forma balance sheet is prepared as if the transactions described above occurred on March 31, 2010. The pro forma assumptions and adjustments prior to the completion of the Qualifying Transaction are as follows:
a) CDR issues 1,652,523 common shares with a gross value of $771,702, which were committed to be issued prior to March 31, 2010. b) CDR issues 125,000 common shares with a net value of $24,611 in consideration for broker services related to the August 12, 2010 private placement. c) CDR completes a private placement of 27,550,000 units at a price of C$0.20 (US$0.1969 at March 31 2010 exchange rate of C$1.0158 = US$1.00) per unit for gross proceeds of C$5,510,000 or US$5,424,296. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share at a price of C$0.20 per common share until August 12, 2015. In respect of the private placement, gross proceeds included $812,168 of accounts payable converted into 4,125,000 common shares valued at $355,721 and 4,125,000 warrants valued at $456,447. The fair value of the common shares and warrants, excluding those issued upon conversion of accounts payable, was $2,020,062 and $2,592,062, respectively. Company will issue 1,030,300 broker warrants, with a fair value of $75,315, entitling the holder to purchase one common share at a price of C$0.20 per common share until August 12, 2012.The fair value of the warrants and broker warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: ------------------------------ Broker Warrants ------------------------------ Warrants --------------- Risk-free interest rate 1.60% 2.44% Expected volatility 65.17% 65.17% Expected life of warrants 2 years 5 years Expected dividend yield Nil Nil d) Transaction costs of the August 12, 2010 private placement and amalgamation are $508,231, and $292,436 of the costs was allocated to the warrants. e) CDR, pursuant to the January 2010 share purchase unit agreement, reduces the share purchase unit price from C$0.50 to C$0.20 per unit for units issued in January 2010 and issues 3,300,000 additional common shares; cancels 2,200,000 share purchase warrants; and issues 5,500,000 replacement share purchase warrants. The fair value of the original warrants was $372,970. The fair value of the replacement warrants of $618,212 was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: Risk-free interest rate 2.44% Expected volatility 65.17% Expected life of warrants 5 years Expected dividend yield Nil f) CDR issues 200,000 common shares valued at $39,378 as a finder's fee. g) Amalfi consolidates its shares on the basis of one common share for each 2 common shares presently outstanding, resulting in 5,869,000 post- consolidation common shares. h) Amalfi replaces its outstanding stock options by issuing 580,000 stock options entitling the holder to acquire one common share for C$0.20 until November 30, 2012. i) Amalfi issues 1,657,143 common share purchase warrants to its shareholders, on the basis of 0.28635525 common share purchase warrant for each post-consolidation common share held. Each whole common share purchase warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase one common share at a price of C$0.20 for 2 years from the closing of the amalgamation. The fair value of the warrants of $39,378 was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: Risk-free interest rate 1.60% Expected volatility 65.17% Expected life of warrants 2 years Expected dividend yield Nil j) Deferred costs associated with the Qualifying Transaction are charged to equity.

The name of the parent company will be Royal Coal Corp. or other name acceptable to CDR and applicable regulatory authorities. The outstanding stock options and warrants of Amalfi will be exchanged for stock options and warrants of CDR Coal with the same terms.
