DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 is filed by Foresight Energy LP (the “Partnership”), and amends the registration statement initially filed on Form S-3 (File No. 333-205438) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on July 2, 2015 and subsequently amended by Amendment No. 1 to Form S-3 on August 7, 2015 (the “Registration Statement”), which registered: (a) up to $1 billion of Partnership securities to be offered by the Partnership consisting of (i) common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“Common Units”), (ii) other classes of units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership and (iii) debt securities of the Partnership and (b) 112,193,587 Common Units for resale by the selling unitholders identified therein. Because the Partnership no longer satisfies the eligibility requirements of Form S-3, the Partnership has filed this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 on Form S-1 to terminate the registration of any securities that remain unsold under the Registration Statement.

Accordingly, pursuant to the undertaking contained in the Registration Statement to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold, the Partnership hereby amends the Registration Statement to remove from registration the securities covered by the Registration Statement which remain unsold.
