In consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions set forth herein and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is acknowleged by
Ispat Inland and IHCC, Ispat Inland and IHCC agree as follows:
1.Effective Date. The effective date (“Effective Date”) of this Agreement is
March 31, 2001.
2.    First Arbitration. The findings and declarations set forth in the
“Preliminary Order” issued in connection with the First Arbitration shall be
considered as final and binding upon MCC and Ispat Inland, and the parties agree
and acknowledge that all payments required under said Preliminary Order have
been paid and satisfied. In addition, IHCC and Ispat Inland acknowledge that, as
of the Effective Date, they have agreed upon a protocol for the certification of
the “Ramsey C8 Belt Scale”, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit “A”,
and that they will investigate and consider in good faith further revisions to
such protocol relating to the installation and use of a test chain. Subject to
the foregoing, the parties agree to take such action as is necessary to have any
remaining aspects of the First Arbitration terminated and dismissed.
3.    Second Arbitration. The parties agree to take such action as is necessary
to have all aspects of the Second Arbitration terminated and dismissed.
4.    Permit Modification. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event
later than March 31, 2001, Ispat Inland and IHCC shall submit, in conjunction
with Cokenergy, an application to the Indiana Department of Environmental
Management (the “Application”) to modify each company’s individual air permit
(collectively the “Air Permit”). Such Application shall include requests to (i)
allow venting of flue gas through vent stacks located within the Coke Plant up
to ***** on a twenty four hour basis and ***** on an annual basis; (ii)

efforts to obtain the modifications to the Air Permit, and to prepare and submit
any other related filings and/or applications reasonably necessary thereto. Such
efforts shall include, but shall not be limited to, providing (as applicable)
Ispat Inland and IHCC with all information and certifications reasonably
required to be provided by either of them in connection therewith.
5.    Further Escrow Deposits. As of the Effective Date, Ispat Inland is
relieved from its obligation under the Coke Purchase Agreement to deposit fifty
percent (50%) of the Credit Discount into the escrow account described in
Section 9.1 of the Coke Purchase Agreement.
6.    Release of Existing Escrow Funds. Contemporaneous with the submission to
IDEM of the Application, Ispat Inland and IHCC shall deliver a certificate to
the Escrow Agent, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B”, as
well as an appropriate incumbency certificate from each party, to instruct the
Escrow Agent to release to Ispat Inland all escrow funds held by the Escrow
Agent, pursuant to that certain Escrow Agreement among IHCC, Ispat Inland and
The Bank of New York, as Escrow Agent, dated as of February 19, 1998.
7.    Billing and Payment. Following the release of such escrow funds, the
payment terms and invoicing procedures set forth in Section 7.1(b) of the Coke
Purchase Agreement shall be implemented by Ispat Inland and IHCC with respect to
the Coke Purchase Agreement and the Letter Agreement, and the payment terms and
invoicing procedures set forth in Section 7.1(a) of the Coke Purchase Agreement
thereafter shall have no further force or effect with respect to coke sales not
previously invoiced pursuant to the Coke Purchase Agreement and the Letter
Agreement. In order to implement such payment terms and invoicing procedures,
outstanding invoices for coke sales made pursuant to the Coke Purchase Agreement
and the Letter Agreement as of the date such escrow funds are released shall be
paid by Ispat Inland within three (3) business days thereafter. Moreover, if
such escrow funds are released after the fifteenth day of the applicable month,
then (for that month only) on the date of such release IHCC shall transmit to
Ispat Inland a provisional invoice for the amount of coke purchased by Ispat
Inland during such month, and such amount shall be due and payable in
immediately available funds on the last business day of the month during which
such provisional invoice is transmitted to Ispat Inland, or three (3) business
days after receipt of such provisional invoice, whichever is later. Final
adjustments to such provisional invoice shall be made in accordance with Section
7.1(b) of the Coke Purchase Agreement.
In addition, the procedures by which Ispat Inland is paid for the Inland
Services it provides under the Services Agreement shall be modified so that the
payment for Inland Services provided by Ispat Inland in any month continues to
be offset against the cost of the Coke purchased by Ispat Inland in such month.
A provisional charge for such services, which shall be based upon Ispat Inland’s
good faith estimate of the payment due by IHCC to Ispat Inland under the
Services Agreement, shall be made in connection with the provisional invoice
submitted by IHCC to Ispat Inland for the applicable month in accordance with
Section 7.1(b) of the Coke Purchase Agreement. Final adjustments to such
provisional charge, which shall be based upon actual charges for such

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Page 4 of 15

services payable by IHCC to Ispat Inland in accordance with the Services
Agreement less the estimated charges set forth in the applicable provisional
invoice, shall be made contemporaneously with Inland’s submission to IHCC of the
provisional charge for the following month.
8.    Current Coke Quality Specifications. As of the Effective Date, the Coke
Quality Specifications for the coal blend utilized at the Coke Plant are set
forth in attached Exhibit “C”.
9.    Adjustment to Coke Quality Specifications. When the blend of coals to be

Purchase Agreement, IHCC and Ispat Inland shall promptly submit to each other,
in writing, proposed revisions to the Coke Quality Specifications for Ash,
Stability, Alkalies, Phosphorus, Sulfur, and CSR (the “Coal Blend Related
Specifications”). If IHCC and Ispat Inland cannot agree upon the Coal Blend
Related Specifications within sixty (60) days following the date the selected
coal blend is initially utilized at the Coke Plant, then the (i) “average”
specification for the Coal Blend Related Specifications shall be automatically
revised based upon the average values of Ash, Stability, Alkalies, Phosphorus,
Sulfur, and CSR of the coke produced from the selected coal blend during such
sixty (60) day period the “Revised Average”); and (ii) “price increase range”,
“minimum value”, “maximum value”, “price decrease range” and “reject value”
specifications for the Coal Blend Related Specifications shall be revised
upwards or downwards in accordance with the actual increase or decrease in the
Revised Average. Such revisions (whether agreed upon by the parties or imposed
automatically) shall be retroactive to the date the selected coal blend is
initially utilized at the Coke Plant, but shall be first incorporated into the
monthly quality summary for the month in which such revisions become effective.
Price adjustments made pursuant to Section 4.7 of the Coke Purchase Agreement
for Ash, Stability, Sulfur, and CSR shall be based upon the Coal Blend Related
Specifications, and such price adjustments shall be debited or credited in
accordance with Section 4.8(a) of the Coke Purchase Agreement. Any Price
adjustment made pursuant to Section 4.7 of the Coke Purchase Agreement for
Phosphorus also shall be based upon the Coal Blend Related Specifications, and
such price adjustment shall be debited or credited in accordance with Section
4.8(b) of the Coke Purchase Agreement. Provided, (i) IHCC shall refund to Ispat
Inland, in the form of a credit to be invoiced during April 2001, the sum of
$***** as full satisfaction of credits claimed by Ispat Inland related to the
ash and sulfur content of Coke sold pursuant to the Coke Purchase Agreement from
November 27, 1998 through December 31, 2000; (ii) any price adjustment for the
coal blend utilized at the Coke Plant as of the Effective Date shall be
retroactive only to January 1, 2001, and shall be invoiced (debit or credit)
during April 2001; and (iii) when the parties agree to accept coal in the coal
specification rejection range, penalties attributable to the use of that coal
shall offset any price decrease provided for in the Coal Blend Related Standards
where such coal is utilized in the selected coal blend.

Exhibit “A” to Amendment to Coke Purchase Agreement and Letter Agreement,
Consent to
Permit Modification, and Mutual Release
CALIBRATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE RAMSEY 10-14 BELT SCALE
PURPOSE:
Describes the steps necessary to maintain proper calibration of the Ramsey Belt
Conveyor Scale.

•
Twice weekly, perform an auto zero run in addition to the span check auto zero,
and record and chart the results in the Ramsey scale book, subject to and in
accordance per attachment I. (As used herein and in “Attachment 1”, the phrase
“auto zero run” does not refer to auto zero tracking.) Acceptable results for a
zero drift are less than +/-.25% error.

•
Once weekly, perform a simulated test utilizing the static weights per
attachment 2. Acceptable results for a span are less than +/- 0.25% from the
value obtained immediately after the last valid material test.

•
On a weekly basis, inspect the conveyor to check that all idlers are freely
turning. Note any idlers that need replacing and refer them to maintenance for
replacement. Note: If any of the precision idlers in the scale area are changed,
the calibration of the scale may be affected. A material test should be
conducted to verify that the scale is weighing accurately.

•
Inspect the scale for coke that may be built up or lodged in the scale carriage
before performing maintenance calibration. Clear any coke and re-zero and span
the scale.

•
When performing greasing, belt training, belt tension adjustments, and skirt
board adjustments or replacements, the scale shall be zeroed.

•
Once every six months, perform a material test per attachment 3.

•
Inland shall be given access to all scale records including those in the scale
memory and hard copies of charts (attachment 4) and records (attachment 5). Such
access includes material tests, zero, and span checks and calibrations. Inland
at its option may audit any scale related procedures, charts, and reports upon
at least forty-eight (48) hours’ prior written notice and during normal working
hours.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Page 9 of 15

Attachment 1 to Calibration and Maintenance of the Ramsey 10-14 Belt Scale
Zero Calibration
Run the belt for at least 1/2 hour before testing. The belt needs to be empty of
all material before beginning an auto zero run. If material comes onto the belt
during the test, wait for material to clear the belt then hit RUN and re-start
the test. Do not re-zero the scale during adverse weather conditions such as
high winds, rain or snow.
Perform a routine inspection of conveyor prior to performing maintenance
calibration.
1)
Press MENU

2)Press ZERO CAL
3)Press START
The time will count down to zero indicating that three revolutions of the belt
have passed. The upper display will read Auto Zero Complete.
4)
The integrator will display a percent error record and chart the value “as
found”. If the error exceeds +/- 0.25%, see troubleshooting, correct the
problem, and re-zero the scale. For errors less than +/- 0.25%, zero the scale
by pressing yes and record and chart the “as left” value in the scale book.

5)
Confirm the zero calibration with a repeat check. If greater than +/- 0.25% go
to step 1.

Troubleshooting
Common causes of zero calibration shifts are:
1)
Material built up on or lodged in the weighbridge. Clean the weighbridge and
re-zero the scale

2)
Change in conveyor belt tracking. Alignment should be in the center of the scale
area idlers when the belt is empty and loaded.

3)
Non-uniform conveyor belting.

4)
Trouble in electronic measuring components.

5)
Severely overloaded loadcell.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Page 10 of 15

Attachment 2 to Calibration and Maintenance of the Ramsey 10-14 Belt Scale
Span Calibration
Run the belt for at least 1/2 hour before testing. The belt needs to be empty of
all material. If material conies during the test, hit RUN and re-start the test.
It is preferred not to run a span during adverse weather conditions as results
may be affected.
Perform a zero prior to span calibration per attachment 1
1)
Record Master Totalizer number “as found”

2)Press MENU
3)Press SPAN CAL
4)Press Continue
5)Place the simulated weights on the weighbridge ..
6)Press START
The time will count down to zero indicating that three revolutions of the belt
have passed. The upper display will read Auto Span Complete.
7)
The integrator will display a span percent error. Do not change the span. Record
and chart the “as found” error in the scale book. An acceptable error is less
than +/- 0.25% from the value obtained immediately after the last material test.
Record and chart the “as left” value in the scale book. For errors exceeding
that percentage range, see troubleshooting, correct the problem, zero and
re-span the scale. Record and chart the “as left” value in the scale book. If
the error is greater than +/- 0.75%, troubleshoot, correct the problem, zero and
re-span the scale. Record and chart the “as left” values. Perform a material
test at the earliest opportunity.

8)
Confirm the span calibration with a repeat check. (See step 6.)

9)
Record the master totalizer number “as left” value.

Troubleshooting
Common causes of span calibration shifts are:
1)Changes in conveyor belt tension
2)Speed sensor roller material build-up or slipping
3)Scale alignment
4)Severely overloaded loadcell
5)Trouble in electronic measuring components

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Page 11 of 15

Attachment 3 to Calibration and Maintenance of the Ramsey 10-14 Belt Scale
Material Calibration
1)
Identify an accurate reference scale, such as a portable truck scale with an
accuracy of +/0.2%. The scale should provide printable scale information
including weight, time, date, and weight readable in 20# gradations.

2)
Calibrate the scale one-day before the test with NIST traceable static weights
using a buildup test to the highest gross weight in use for the materials
tested. Use this scale for the reference scale for the material test. If the
difference is greater than +/- 0.25% troubleshoot the problem and then
recalibrate the reference scale.

3)
Arrange for rental of adequate trucks.

4)
Obtain the following conveying equipment and manpower to operate same:

(Screening station side of C-8) - a generator to provide a power supply, a
Thunderbird type feed conveyor with an enclosed chute, a hopper conveyor with an
adjustable feed gate, an extension conveyor, booting to load slag onto C-8
conveyor
(Coke loading side) - a generator to provide power, a collection hopper with an
adjustable gate, an extension conveyor for loading trucks.
5)
Obtain not less than 110 tons 2” blast furnace slag or other appropriate
material to serve as the test material.

6)
Obtain empty weights on all trucks by truck number on the day of the test.

7)
Load five trucks with not less than 110 tons of material.

8)
Weigh the trucks on the above-calibrated scale.

9)
Run C-8 belt empty for at least 30 minutes before commencing the test.

10)
Zero the scale (reference Attachment 1 when zeroing).

11)
Conditions such as high wind, rain or snow will adversely affect the outcome of
the material test. If such conditions exist at the time of the test,
consideration should be given to reschedule the test under more favorable
weather conditions.

12)
Position one truck under the west chute at the coke loading station for catching
overflow material.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Page 12 of 15

13)
Before commencing the test, verify that the 7 Blast Furnace 10 belt has been
shut down and an “E” switch has been pulled. This precaution is very important,
as the parties do not want to send material other than coke to the blast
furnace.

14)
Begin loading slag into the Thunderbird, note truck number.

15)
Record the “as found” Master Totalizer quantity. Set the IHCC C-8 scale to
material mode:

1.Press MENU
2.Press Mat’l Cal
3.Press Start
This procedure will allow the scale to accumulate tonnage without adding it to
the master total for the scale. At end of the test do not add reference material
to totals.
16)
Start up the generator and portable conveyors.

17)
Maintain radio contact between the material feed system, coke load out and the
scale for coordination purposes.

18)
Begin loading material onto C-8 belt. Assure spillage at the transfer points is
captured and put back into the hopper. If spillage cannot be captured, modify
the system to eliminate the problem and re-start the test. Adjust the feed rate
with the gate on the hopper conveyor to maintain a steady scale loading between
140 and 392 tons per hour. Previous tests have shown a rate of 170 to 250 tons
per hour to be optimum.

19)
Document truck numbers and tabulate weights as they dump into the Thunderbird.

20)
As trucks fill at the coke loading area flop the gate toward the west pantleg
while the trucks switch out.

21)
Continue until all pre-weighed material has cleared the C-8 conveyor and been
loaded into trucks.

22)
Compare the tons dumped by truck onto C-8 to the tons accumulated on the scale
and calculate the error as follows:

*****
Adjust the scale by the amount of error.
23)
Perform three confirming material tests. Results must be within +/- 0.50% of the
pre-weighed material weight. If the results are not within that percentage
range, recalibrate the scale.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Page 13 of 15

24)
Perform a span test on the scale to reference the static weights to the material
test. Document the error in the scale book.

25)
After the test is complete, jog the Blast Furnace 10 belt and remove any
material that may have accumulated in the chute at our coke loading station.

26)
Record and chart the “as left” Master totalizer, the span and zero values.
