 WATER SUPPLY AND SERVICES AGREEMENT 

THIS WATER SUPPLY AND SERVICES AGREEMENT (as may be amended, revised, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this
“Agreement”) dated as of [            ], 2015 (the “Execution Date”), is by and between CNX WATER ASSETS
LLC, a West Virginia limited liability company (“CONSOL”), and CNX THERMAL HOLDINGS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CTH”). CONSOL and CTH may be
referred to herein separately as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.  

RECITALS 
 WHEREAS,
CTH owns an undivided interest in, and has been designated as the operator of, those certain coal mines in Greene and Washington Counties, Pennsylvania and Marshall County, West Virginia, commonly known as the Bailey Mine, the Enlow Fork Mine and
the Harvey Mine, and the related preparation plant commonly known as the Bailey preparation plant (the “Pennsylvania Mine Complex”); 

WHEREAS, as the operator of the Pennsylvania Mine Complex, CTH has been delegated authority and charged with overseeing, supervising
and managing the day-to-day operations associated with or conducted at the Pennsylvania Mine Complex, which include acquiring water necessary to support mining operations at the Pennsylvania Mine Complex (the “Mine Operations
Water”) and arranging for the handling, treatment, transportation and disposal of produced water and fluids from the Pennsylvania Mine Complex (the “Mine Produced Water”); and 

WHEREAS, CTH desires to contract with CONSOL for the option (but not the obligation) for CONSOL, as an independent contractor, to
provide, directly or indirectly, certain services with respect to Mine Operations Water and Mine Produced Water, subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants, agreements, conditions and obligations set forth herein,
the Parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE II 
 WATER SUPPLY
SERVICES; WATER TREATMENT SERVICES 
 2.1 Water Supply Services. 

(a) CTH shall have the option, but not the obligation, upon reasonable advance prior notice to acquire from CONSOL Mine Operations Water in an
amount designated by CTH in accordance with Section 2.1(c) not to exceed the maximum amount set forth in the then-current Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection permit, which is 600 gallons per minute as of the Execution
Date (such Mine Operations Water for which CTH has elected to acquire, the “Purchased Water”) and to receive from CONSOL the Supply Services with respect to such Purchased Water. 

(b) All Purchased Water received by CTH at a Delivery Point shall be measured by a suitable measurement device located at or near any such
Delivery Point to be furnished and installed (or caused to be furnished and installed) by CTH and subsequently kept in repair (or caused to be kept in repair) by CTH, in each case, at CTH’s sole cost and expense. All such measurement devices
shall be installed and operated in accordance with the applicable manufacturer’s recommended specifications. Subject to the foregoing, CTH shall be responsible for the operation, recording and proving of all measurement devices. CTH shall test
and prove all such measurement devices periodically and upon the reasonable request of CONSOL. CONSOL shall have the right to have witnesses present at all testing and proving procedures performed by CTH, and CTH shall provide CONSOL written notice
at least five Business Days prior to performing any such procedures. CONSOL, at its sole cost, shall have the right to install check meters upstream of CTH’s measurement devices.  

(c) Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, CTH has provided CONSOL with its nominations for the remainder of the quarter in
which the Execution Date occurs. On or before 10 Business Days prior to the beginning of each quarter of each Term Year, CTH shall provide CONSOL written notice nominating the average daily volumes of Purchased Water CTH estimates it will acquire
during the applicable quarter (the “Nominated Volume”). If CTH fails to timely provide written notice of its nominations for the applicable quarter, CTH’s Nominated Volume for the immediately preceding quarter shall
apply to such quarter. 

  
 2 








 (d) CTH shall pay CONSOL each month in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for Supply
Services provided by CONSOL an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount equal to the sum of (A) the aggregate volume of Purchased Water, stated in gallons, received by CTH during such month and (B) the Shortfall Volumes (if any)
multiplied by (ii) the Supply Fee. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the Supply Fee will be the applicable fee for the Supply Services during the Initial Term. The Supply Fee applicable to the Supply Services during each Additional Term
(if any) will be as mutually agreed by the Parties based on then-current market conditions; provided that if the Parties are unable to agree on the Supply Fee applicable to the Supply Services during an Additional Term, then CONSOL shall be
under no obligation to provide the Supply Services. 
 (e) All Purchased Water delivered by CONSOL shall be subject to, and comply with, any
water quality standards imposed by any applicable permits, contracts and/or Law. 
 (f) Title to any Purchased Water shall remain with
CONSOL until acceptance of such Purchased Water by CTH at the Delivery Point. 
 2.2 Water Treatment Services. 

(a) CTH shall have the option, but not the obligation, upon reasonable advance prior notice to receive from CONSOL the Treatment Services with
respect to Treatment Water delivered to the Receipt Point. 
 (b) CTH shall pay CONSOL each month in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement for Treatment Services provided by CONSOL an amount equal to the product of (i) the aggregate volume of Treatment Water, stated in gallons, delivered by CTH to CONSOL during such month multiplied by (ii) the Treatment Fee. Unless
otherwise agreed by the Parties, the Treatment Fee will be the fee for the Treatment Services during the first Term Year. The Treatment Fee applicable to the Treatment Services during each succeeding Term Year following will be as mutually agreed by
the Parties based on then-current market conditions and operating costs of the Water Treatment Facility, which for the avoidance of doubt shall include maintenance expenses but shall not include any Capital Expenses. In the event the Parties are
unable to agree on the Treatment Fee applicable to the Treatment Services with regard to a Term Year following the first Term Year then such Treatment Fee shall default to the fair market rate based on the actual costs of CONSOL in providing the
Treatment Services, including a reasonable amount of overhead costs; provided that if the Parties are unable to agree upon the default rate, such default rate shall be determined through arbitration in accordance with Section 2.9.

 (c) CONSOL shall treat all Treatment Water to the standards required by Law, including the standards contained in the applicable National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permits. 
 2.3 Water Treatment Facility Services. CONSOL shall oversee, supervise and
manage the day-to-day operations associated with the Water Treatment Facility and perform all acts necessary to maintain and operate the Water Treatment Facility in compliance with applicable Law, including taking and providing water samples to
Governmental Authorities, and any instructions provided by CTH from time to time (the “Operational Services”). All capital expenditures related to or required in connection with the Water Treatment Facility and/or any
pipelines related to, or measurement facilities at or upstream of, the Water Treatment Facility (collectively, the “Capital Expenses”) shall be the sole responsibility of CTH. 

  
 3 








 2.4 Water Services Standard of Care. CONSOL shall perform the Water Services
consistently with past practices and in a manner that, individually or in the aggregate, is not grossly negligent and does not constitute willful misconduct; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the total number of applicable permit
violations by CONSOL during the Term shall be considered in determining whether CONSOL has acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

2.5 Access Rights. 

(a) CTH shall provide CONSOL access to and use of those certain assets and facilities owned or controlled by CTH, including the Water
Treatment Facility, the Dam Supply Pipeline, the Discharge Pipelines and the Water Sources (the “CTH Facilities”) to the extent necessary for CONSOL (i) to perform the Water Services and (ii) at its sole cost and
expense, to take and market water to Third Parties and/or to provide services to Third Parties; provided that CTH’s right to Water Services under this Agreement shall have priority over any services provided by CONSOL to Third Parties
and CONSOL shall not curtail the Water Services provided to CTH hereunder without first curtailing all services provided to Third Parties to the extent CONSOL is utilizing CTH Facilities to provide such services. 

(b) Subject to terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, CONSOL shall have the sole and exclusive right to market and/or sell water
obtained from a Water Source and/or the CTH Facilities to Third Parties. 
 (c) CONSOL shall defend, indemnify and holds harmless the CTH
Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses arising out of, resulting from or relating to CONSOL’s use of the CTH Facilities, EVEN IF SUCH LIABILITIES ARISE OUT OF OR RESULT FROM, SOLELY OR IN PART, THE SOLE, ACTIVE, PASSIVE,
CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT OR VIOLATION OF LAW OF OR BY A MEMBER OF THE CTH INDEMNIFIED PARTIES, EXCEPTING ONLY LOSSES ACTUALLY RESULTING ON THE ACCOUNT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF A
MEMBER OF THE CTH INDEMNIFIED PARTIES. 
 2.6 Insurance. CONSOL shall (i) obtain and maintain any and all insurance
that is required by applicable Laws or that would otherwise be required by a reasonable, prudent service provider providing the Water Services and (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to name each Owning Party as additional insureds on
such subcontractors’ insurance policies (with waivers of subrogation in favor of each Owning Party). 
 2.7 Payment Terms;
Disputed Charges. 
 (a) No later than 30 days after the end of each calendar month, CONSOL shall prepare and deliver to CTH, an
invoice for the Supply Fee, the Treatment Fee and, if applicable, the Shortfall Fee, in each case, incurred during such calendar month (or, in the case of the Shortfall Fee, the applicable quarter). 

  
 4 








 (b) CONSOL shall provide to CTH such documentation as CTH may reasonably request to support each
such invoice. 
 (c) Each invoice delivered by CONSOL pursuant to this Agreement shall be due and payable no later than 30 days after the
receipt of the invoice. All payments shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the account (or accounts) designated by CONSOL, from time to time, no later than 1:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the due date. 

(d) In addition to CTH’s right under Section 2.8, if CTH disputes in good faith all or any portion of an invoice delivered by
CONSOL pursuant to this Agreement, CTH may deliver written notice of such dispute to CONSOL within 40 days of receipt of such invoice, setting forth in reasonable detail the reasons for such dispute. Notwithstanding the delivery of any such written
notice of dispute, CTH shall pay to CONSOL the full amount of such invoice (including any disputed portions of such invoice) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If it is determined by the Parties or otherwise that any amount paid by CTH
to CONSOL was improperly paid, then subject to Section 2.7(e), CONSOL shall promptly reimburse CTH the amount of such improper payment. 

(e) If (i) CTH fails to pay any amount when due or (ii) (A) CTH disputes an invoice hereunder, (B) pays the full amount of
such invoice and (C) it is determined by the Parties or otherwise that CONSOL must reimburse CTH any portion of the amount of such invoice, then such amount shall bear interest from the due date (or the date the disputed amount was paid by CTH
in case of a reimbursement owed by CONSOL to CTH ) to the date such amount is paid by CTH (or CONSOL, if applicable) at the Agreed Rate. 

(f) The Parties acknowledge and agree that CONSOL has or may enter into Water Sales Agreements and that, in exchange for the access rights
provided under Section 2.5 with respect to such Water Sales Agreements, CTH shall receive a credit against all amounts and fees due and payable by CTH under this Agreement in an amount equal to the Water Sales Credit. CONSOL shall track,
and each invoice submitted by CONSOL under this Agreement shall reflect, all Water Sales Credits to which CTH is entitled. If, for any given month, the amount of any Water Sales Credits owed by CONSOL to CTH exceed the amount of fees and expenses
owed by CTH under this Agreement during such month, the excess Water Sales Credits shall be applied to the following month(s). Any credits owed to CTH under this Section 2.7 shall not expire until termination of this Agreement, at which
time any accumulated credits shall expire without any additional compensation owed by CONSOL to CTH. 
 2.8 Audit. CTH, upon
reasonable written notice to CONSOL, shall have the right to audit CONSOL’s accounts and records relating to the Water Services for any Term Year within the 24-month period following the end of such Term Year. CONSOL shall not bear any portion
of CTH’s audit cost incurred under this Section 2.8. The audits shall not be conducted more frequently than bi-annually without the prior approval of CONSOL. Upon the completion of any such audit the results of which evidence an
overcharging by CONSOL for Water Services rendered or any inaccuracies in any Water Sales Credits, CTH may notify CONSOL of such overcharge or inaccuracy and request reimbursement or other compensation thereof, and such notice shall include
CTH’s calculations and reasonable data supporting such overcharge or 

  
 5 








 
inaccuracy. Within 30 days after receipt of CTH’s notice under this audit provision, CONSOL shall notify CTH if CONSOL disputes the results of the audit. CONSOL’s failure to notify CTH
of such dispute within such time period shall be deemed to be agreement with the audit results. If CONSOL timely notifies CTH that it disputes the audit results, then each of CONSOL and CTH shall designate a representative, and, not later than 10
Business Days from such selection, such representatives shall meet in an effort to resolve such disputed audit results. Such representatives shall attempt to agree on a resolution of such dispute within 10 Business Days from meeting. Upon such
deadline, if no consensual resolution has been reached, either Party may cause such dispute to be submitted to arbitration in accordance with Section 2.9. This Section 2.8 shall survive the expiration or termination of this
Agreement for a period of 24 months. 
 2.9 Arbitrator. In the event that the Parties cannot reach agreement regarding any
disputes regarding (i) amounts invoiced hereunder pursuant to Section 2.7 or Section 2.8 or (ii) the Treatment Fee or Water Sales Credit applicable to the Treatment Services or any Water Sales Agreement during each
succeeding Term Year following the initial Term Year, either Party may refer the remaining matters in dispute to the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania office of a mutually agreeable nationally recognized accounting firm (the
“Arbitrator”) for review and final determination by arbitration. Should such selected firm fail or refuse to agree to serve as Arbitrator within ten Business Days after receipt of a written request from any Party to serve,
and should the Parties fail to agree in writing on another replacement Arbitrator within five Business Days after the end of that ten-day period, or should no replacement Arbitrator agree to serve within 30 days after the original written request
pursuant to this Section 2.9, the Arbitrator shall be a nationally recognized accounting firm appointed by the Philadelphia office of the American Arbitration Association. The Arbitrator’s determination shall be made within 30 days
after submission of the matters in dispute and shall be final and binding on the Parties, without right of appeal. The Arbitrator shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific disputed matters submitted by the Parties
and may not award damages or penalties to the Parties with respect to any matter. Each Party shall each bear its own legal fees and other costs of presenting its case. The fees, costs and expenses of the Arbitrator, shall be allocated between the
Parties based upon the percentage which the portion of the disputed matters not awarded to such Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party. The provisions of this Section 2.9 shall survive the expiration or termination of
this Agreement. 
 2.10 Permits. Subject to Section 2.11, CTH shall be responsible for obtaining and/or
maintaining all permits required by Law and necessary for CONSOL to provide the Water Services. 
 2.11 Notices. In the event
either Party receives (a) a notice of non-compliance with, or violation of, any permit related to the Water Services, (b) a notice or information related to Treatment Water being discharged that is not in compliance with quality standards
imposed by any applicable permit, contract or Law, or (c) any other notice or information related to the Water Services or terms of this Agreement (collectively, “Notices”), the receiving Party shall, as soon as
reasonably practical, forward such Notice to the other Party. To the extent, CONSOL provides CTH any Notice related to the discharge of Treatment Water, CTH shall be responsible for complying with all self-reporting requirements in accordance with
all applicable permits, contracts and/or Laws.

 3.2 Omnibus
Agreement Indemnities. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that, except for the rights of the Parties to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Article IV and as set forth in Section 2.5(c), the indemnities set forth
under the Omnibus Agreement shall be the Parties’ exclusive remedies with respect to any breach of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, except as set forth in the Omnibus Agreement, in no event shall CONSOL have any liability under this
Agreement or applicable Law, with respect to the provision of the Water Services under this Agreement for any claim, damage, loss or liability sustained or incurred in connection with the provision of the Water Services or any breach of any
provision of this Agreement. 
 3.3 Disclaimer. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, CONSOL MAKES
NO, AND DISCLAIMS ANY, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY WITH RESPECT TO THE PERFORMANCE OR RESULTS OF THE WATER SERVICES OR ANY DATA OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY CONSOL HEREUNDER. 

3.4 Conspicuous. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT, TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW TO BE EFFECTIVE OR ENFORCEABLE, THE PROVISIONS
IN THIS AGREEMENT IN ALL-CAPS FONT ARE “CONSPICUOUS” FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW. 
 ARTICLE IV 

TERM; TERMINATION 

4.1 Term. This Agreement will commence on the Execution Date and will remain in full force and effect for an initial term of
five years (the “Initial Term”) and will continue in full force and effect thereafter for successive one year periods (each, an “Additional Term”) unless terminated by either Party at the end of the
Initial Term or any Additional Term by giving not less than 30 days’ prior written notice, subject in each case to earlier termination in accordance with Section 4.2 or Section 4.3 (such period of time, the
“Term”). 
 4.2 CONSOL Termination. CONSOL may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to CTH
upon the Bankruptcy of CTH. 
 4.3 CTH Termination. CTH may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to CONSOL following

Services. 

  
 7 








 4.4 Effect of Termination. The terms of Article III, this Article IV
and Article VI shall survive any termination of this Agreement. The termination of this Agreement shall not relieve either Party of any liability or obligation accruing or that had accrued prior to the termination of this Agreement nor
deprive a Party not in breach (other than a breach because such Party is rightfully withholding performance in response to a breach by the other Party) of its rights to any remedy otherwise available to such Party. 

ARTICLE V 
 FORCE MAJEURE

 5.1 Force Majeure. If any Party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by Force Majeure to carry out its obligations
under this Agreement, other than the obligation to make money payments, that Party shall give to the other Party prompt written notice of the Force Majeure with reasonably full particulars concerning it; thereupon, the obligations of the Party
giving notice, so far as they are affected by the Force Majeure, shall be suspended during, but no longer than, the continuance of the Force Majeure. The affected Party shall use all reasonable efforts to remove, mitigate and/or remedy the Force
Majeure situation as quickly as practicable. The requirement that any Force Majeure shall be remedied with all reasonable dispatch shall not require the settlement of strikes, lockouts or other labor difficulty by the Party involved, contrary to its
wishes; the method by which all such difficulties shall be handled shall be entirely within the discretion of the affected Party; provided, however, the foregoing shall not relieve such Party of its obligations to take other measures
to remove, mitigate and/or remedy any delay or suspension resulting from such labor difficulties. 
 ARTICLE VI 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 6.1
Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by any Party, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other Party. No assignment hereunder by any Party shall relieve such Party of any obligations and responsibilities
