EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (“Post-Effective Amendment”), filed by CNX Gas Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), removes from registration all shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), registered under the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File Number 333-131497) filed by the Registrant on February 3, 2006 (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to the registration of 3,900,000 shares of Common Stock relating to the CONSOL Energy Inc. Investment Plan for Salaried Employees.

On May 28, 2010, CNX Gas Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) and the owner of more than 90% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, merged with and into the Registrant (the “Merger”) pursuant to the short form merger provisions of Section 253 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, with the Registrant as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Merger, the Registrant became a wholly owned subsidiary of CONSOL Energy Inc., a Delaware corporation, the parent entity of Merger Sub.

As a result of the Merger, the Registrant has terminated all offerings of its Common Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement. The Registrant is therefore filing this Post Effective Amendment to remove from registration all shares of Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement that remain available for issuance and sale thereunder.
