Good operations and a great strategic vision are not enough. It takes first-rate PEOPLE and COMMITMENT, INTEGRITY and PERFORMANCE to create value.

Westmoreland has adopted a set of operating principles and beliefs:

• First and foremost, we will strive to meet the highest corporate ethical standards, including those of honesty and fair dealing. This principle of conduct underlies all others for us.
• Our business objective is to earn an acceptable return on investment for our shareholders in energy-related businesses that satisfy important and basic requirements of society.
• We believe the most critical element for competing successfully is a skilled, motivated and cohesive workforce.
• We will compete to be the safest, lowest-cost producer and seller of products and services that meet the needs of our existing and potential customers.
• We also believe that our supplier and customer relationships must be based on fair prices, consistent quality and reliable service.
• In conducting our business, we will endeavor to be a responsible corporate citizen of our Nation and of the communities in which we live and work.

These fundamental principles and beliefs guide the planning and conduct of every facet of our business. Each and every employee is asked to join in a common personal commitment to them.
