THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED COAL LEASE (this Lease), is made and effective as of the 27thday of May, 2008, by and between DULCET ACQUISITON LLC, a Delaware limited liability company with an address at Seven Sheridan Square, Suite 400,
Kingsport, Tennessee 37660 (Lessor), and POWDUL ACQUISITION LLC, a Delaware limited liability company with an address at 300 Corporate Centre Drive, Scott Depot, West Virginia 25560 (Lessee).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Lessor and Lessee are parties to that certain Sublease Agreement, dated as of October 22, 1980 (as amended, the Original Coal
Lease); and

WHEREAS, Lessor and Lessee desire to amend and restate the Original Coal Lease as provided in this Lease;

NOW, THEREFORE, that for and in consideration of the premises and of the sum of Ten Dollars, cash in hand paid by Lessee to Lessor, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and of the rents and royalties herein provided to be paid, and of the mutual covenants and promises hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

1. Leased Coal; Leased Premises.

a.
Lease. Subject to the exceptions, reservations and conditions set forth in this Lease, Lessor does hereby LEASE, LET, ASSIGN and/or GRANT unto Lessee, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, all of the coal (the Leased
Coal) in and underlying those certain tracts or parcels of land commonly referred to as the Dulcimer Land Property, situate, lying and being in Harlan County, Kentucky and Lee County, Virginia (collectively, the Leased Premises), a
general description of such lands shown on a map attached hereto as Exhibit A, together with the right to use the surface, together with all the rights, easements and privileges that Lessor has the right to grant as may be necessary or convenient to
the exploration, mining, transportation and sale of the Leased Coal. Lessee shall have the right to mine the Leased Coal by any current or future surface or deep mining method (including, without limitation, mountaintop removal, contour surface,
room and pillar, longwall or other method now or hereafter in existence). Highwall and auger mining may be conducted on the Leased Premises upon written consent by Lessor with respect to specific mining plan proposals submitted by Lessee.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS LEASE, LESSOR MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WHETHER OF MERCHANTABILITY, QUALITY,
QUANTITY, RECOVERABILITY, TITLE OR OTHERWISE AS TO THE LEASED PREMISES, THE LEASED COAL OR INTERESTS THEREIN, COAL RESERVES OR MINING OR OTHER RIGHTS OWNED BY LESSOR, OR AS TO THE

CONDITION OF THE LEASED PREMISES OR THE LEASED COAL, AND LESSEE SHALL RELY UPON ITS OWN EXAMINATION THEREOF THROUGH ENGINEERS AND OTHER REPRESENTATIVES
SELECTED AND EMPLOYED SOLELY BY LESSEE.

b. Exceptions and Reservations. There is excepted and reserved from the operation of
this Lease the entire ownership and control of the Leased Premises for all purposes other than those for which this Lease is made, including the following:

i. The right to mine and take away coal not leased to Lessee under this Lease from the Leased Premises by any current or future surface or deep mining method and to select and grant to others the right to do so;

ii. The right to cut, prepare, use or remove all the timber on the Leased Premises;

iii. The right to search for oil, gas, coal, coal bed methane not released in the ordinary course of mining (CBM) and other minerals and
products other than the Leased Coal and removing the same when found, the right to bore for and produce the oil and gas, including CBM, found in the Leased Premises (provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent or restrict Lessee from
venting CBM as may be necessary in its mining operations, without compensation or other liability therefor to Lessor), the right to store and transport, through pipelines or otherwise, such gas and oil, and gas and oil from any other lands, the
right to prospect, mine, produce, store and transport any minerals other than the Leased Coal found in, on or underlying the Leased Premises and the right to store and transport any minerals from other lands; provided, however, that with respect to
any pipelines placed on the Leased Premises pursuant to rights granted to third parties after the date hereof, if Lessee determines that such pipelines will interfere with Lessees mining operations, Lessor shall, promptly upon receipt of
written notice from Lessee, require such third parties to relocate such pipeline(s) to avoid such interference, with the first such relocation to be at no cost to Lessee, and any subsequent relocation of the same pipeline to be at Lessees
cost.

iv. The right to drain water, to transmit electrical energy, steam and heat, to transport coal or coke or other products and
minerals and goods of all other kinds from the Leased Premises or any other land over, across or through the Leased Premises and to select and grant to others such rights;

v. The right to use the stone, earth, water and other minerals and products in, on or underlying the Leased Premises, to make excavations and sinking or
boring slopes, shafts, drifts, tunnels and walls, to erect buildings, structures, machinery and other improvements, to construct and maintain ditches, transmission lines, telegraph and telephone lines, railroads or other roads, tramways, tubing,
pipelines or other means of drainage, transmission, communications or transportation over, upon or beneath the surface of the Leased Premises and to select and grant to others rights of way therefor;

vi. The right to grant and convey, from time to time, any rights of way over, across or through the Leased Premises;

vii. Rights of ingress and egress as may be necessary or convenient in the proper development of the Leased Premises or other lands or in the proper
exercise of the rights hereby excepted and reserved; and

viii. All outstanding rights of any person or entity under existing leases,
subleases, deeds or other instruments evidenced by recorded instruments or visible on the ground;

provided, however, that the exercise and any use
by Lessor of the rights retained and reserved unto Lessor in subsections b(i) through (viii) herein above shall not unreasonably interfere with the mining plans and operations of Lessee upon the Leased Premises; provided, further,
that any such rights granted to third parties by Lessor after the date hereof shall expressly provide that such rights shall be subject to the rights of Lessee under this Lease.

2. Term. The term of this Lease shall be as follows:

a. The Primary Term shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue until the earlier of (i) 10 years from the date hereof, (ii) such time as Lessee shall have mined and removed all of the
mineable and merchantable (as defined below) Leased Coal or (iii) the termination of this Lease in accordance with Section 30. Lessee shall have the option to extend the Primary Term for two additional terms of five years each,
provided, that Lessee is not then in breach hereof beyond any applicable notice and grace periods hereunder and is either (x) actively engaged in mining operations on the Leased Premises or (y) prevented from mining at the time of
such extension due to an event of Force Majeure (as defined in Section 9(b)). The option to extend the Primary Term of this Lease for the additional periods described above may be exercised by written notice from Lessee to Lessor no more than
120 days nor less than 90 days prior to the expiration of the then-current term.

b. The Remainder Term shall commence at the
end of the Primary Term, or any extension thereof, as applicable, and shall continue until Lessee shall have fully complied with all of its reclamation, environmental and other obligations hereunder and under all applicable Permits (as defined in
Section 15(a)). During the Remainder Term, Lessee shall continue to comply with the terms of this Lease, although Lessee shall have no rights to mine, transport or process coal on the Leased Premises.

c. For purposes of this Lease, mineable and merchantable Leased Coal shall mean Leased Coal which when reached in the prosecution of a
prudent and economic plan of operation and development of the Leased Premises ordinarily could be mined by Lessee and, with prudent and economic preparation, marketed at reasonable profit to Lessee by the use of machinery and methods for mining and
cleaning coal which at the time are modern and efficient, and by the use of skillful and efficient management and planning.

3. Rights; Failure of Title.

a.
During the Primary Term, or any extension thereof, Lessee shall have all of the mining rights and privileges, including surface rights, reasonably necessary or convenient to mine and take away the Leased Coal by the mining methods as granted herein,
and no additional rights or privileges. Lessee covenants and agrees to ascertain those mining rights and privileges to include, without limitation, the accurate boundary line of the Leased Premises before conducting any mining operations under this
Lease.

b. It is distinctly understood and agreed that Lessor grants only such mining rights and privileges as it possesses or has acquired
in connection with the Leased Coal contained in the Leased Premises; and that in mining, removing and carrying away the Leased Coal Lessee shall be limited to the exercise of the aforesaid rights and privileges.

c. Lessee and Lessor recognize there may be multiple lessees operating on Lessors property, as well as timber and other activities pursuant to
Lessors retained rights. Recognizing there will be increased demand for use of surface areas and roads on the Leased Premises, Lessor and Lessee agree to reasonably cooperate with each other to coordinate and plan the development and use of
the coal, surface and roads so the interference to the operations of each is minimized. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that its leasehold interest and estate created hereby is subject to the interest or estate of other lessees of Lessors
property and shall be subject to and benefit from the cooperation provisions herein. Lessee further acknowledges and consents to operations by other lessees of Lessor in the Leased Premises in coal seams not leased hereunder. Lessee shall cooperate
with these other coal lessees of Lessor to the extent necessary so as not to unreasonably interfere with their ability to: (i) obtain or modify a mining Permit; (ii) mine and remove coal from seams not leased hereunder; or (iii) use
the surface of the Leased Premises for mining such seams of coal.

d. Lessee is hereby advised that there may be utility power lines, gas
lines, water lines or other obstructions in and on the Leased Premises. To the extent Lessor has the right to give consent to Lessee for rights-of-way or easements necessary to provide for relocation of such lines to facilitate mining activities of
Lessee on the Leased Premises, Lessor shall give such consent in its reasonable discretion. Lessor assumes no responsibility for any loss or delay resulting from having to relocate such lines.

e. In the event any part of the Leased Premises is lost after final adjudication or settlement to the holder of any outstanding superior title, and, if
Lessee has mined and removed a part or all of the Leased Coal therefrom and paid Lessor therefore on the royalty basis, Lessor agrees to repay to Lessee the amount of Tonnage Royalty so paid, without interest, but Lessor shall not be otherwise
liable to Lessee on account of the mining and removing of such Leased Coal by Lessee.

4. Disclaimer of Warranty. Lessee has examined the Leased Premises and the Leased Coal existing on the Leased Premises, accepts the same in their
present condition and assumes all risks incident thereto, to the mining and removal of Leased Coal therefrom and therewith and to any and all activities of its contractors, agents, employees, invitees or licensees. Lessee shall in no way be
considered an agent, contractor or employee of Lessor. Lessee agrees that Lessor makes no covenant to Lessee for quiet enjoyment of the Leased Premises and that Lessor has made no representations or warranties with respect to the Leased Premises,
including, without limitation, the condition thereof, the quantity, quality, depth or thickness of the Leased Coal therein or the condition of Lessors title thereto; provided, however, that Lessor does warrant and covenant that it
(i) has not and will not enter into any lease, conveyance or other agreement that would materially interfere with Lessees rights or operations hereunder and (ii) will not cause or permit the creation of any lien, claim or encumbrance
on the Leased Premises that would materially interfere with Lessees operations hereunder.

5. Wheelage and Processing Rights.

a. Lessee shall have the right to transport Adverse Coal over, under or through the Leased Premises subject to the terms and conditions of
this Section 5.

i. If, in any particular month, Lessee has mined from the Leased Premises and sold an amount of tons of Leased Coal
less than the tons of Leased Coal set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto (the Production Schedule) for such month, then Lessee shall pay to Lessor a wheelage fee (the Wheelage Fee) equal to
[        *        ] of the Gross Sales Price for each ton of Adverse Coal transported over, under or through the Leased Premises up to the number of tons of such
shortfall.

ii. Payment of Wheelage Fees, if any, shall be made monthly on or
before the 20thday of each calendar month with respect to Adverse Coal transported over, under or through the Leased Premises during the preceding
month. Each payment of Wheelage Fees shall be accompanied by a statement showing the Adverse Coal transported over, under or through the Leased Premises during the period for which the payment is tendered, the Gross Sales Price per ton, the number
of tons sold at such Gross Sales Price and the Wheelage Fee thereon.

iii. In any month where Lessee pays the Wheelage Fee, such Wheelage
Fee shall be credited to Lessees account for subsequent months. If, in any subsequent month, Lessee shall mine from the Leased Premises and sell an amount of tons of Leased Coal greater than the tons of Leased Coal set forth on the Production
Schedule for such month, then Lessee shall have the right to produce and ship, without paying any Tonnage Royalty, such quantities of Leased Coal as would produce, at the royalty rates prevailing at that time, a Tonnage Royalty equal to that credit.
This right of recoupment may be exercised within 36 consecutive months from the time that the credit accrues. However, this right of recoupment shall terminate upon the expiration or termination of this Lease.

iv. If, in any particular month, Lessee has mined from the Leased Premises and sold an amount of tons of Leased Coal equal to or greater than the tons of
Leased Coal set forth on the Production Schedule for such month, then Lessee shall have the right to transport Adverse Coal over, under or through the Leased Premises during such month free of any Wheelage Fee.

v. After the third anniversary of the date of this Lease, Lessee shall have the right to transport Adverse Coal over, under or through the Leased
Premises free of any Wheelage Fee.

b. Lessee shall have no right under this Lease to process coal from Adverse Lands on the Leased
Premises.

c. For purposes of this Lease, (i) Adverse Coal shall mean coal mined from Adverse Lands;
(ii) Adverse Lands shall mean property not included in this Lease that is not owned by Lessor or any of its Affiliates (provided, however, that if Lessor or any of its Affiliates acquires the property currently leased by
Lessee from Manalapan Mining Company, then such property shall be Adverse Lands); and (ii) Process, Processed or Processing shall mean any coal beneficiation process which results in the separation and
disposal of rock, shale or other waste material from the coal, and shall not be applied to crushing and/or blending operations.

6.
Tonnage Royalty.

a. For each ton of Leased Coal mined hereunder from the Leased Premises and sold, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a
tonnage royalty (the Tonnage Royalty) equal to the greater of a fixed rate (the Fixed Rate) or the percentage of the Gross Sales Price (as defined in Section 6(b)) for such ton (the Percentage Rate), each as
specified below (the Lease Royalty Rate).



|                           |  |               |  |                           
|-------------------------- |  | ------------- |  | --------------------------
|Mining Method              |  | Fixed Rate    |  | Percentage Rate           
|Deep                       |  | [ * ] per ton |  | [ * ] of Gross Sales Price
|Surface, Highwall or Auger |  | [ * ] per ton |  | [ * ] of Gross Sales Price

b. Defined Terms. For the purpose of this Lease, the following terms shall have the
following meanings:

i. The term ton shall mean a short ton of 2,000 pounds, composed of coal after final preparation, or, if
not to be prepared, after mining.

ii. The term Gross Sales Price shall mean the actual aggregate price or consideration
received, f.o.b. the railcar, for Leased Coal by Lessee or its Affiliates, directly or indirectly, from an independent third party buyer in an arms length transaction, without the deduction of any costs whatsoever. The Gross Sales Price shall
include all amounts paid by such independent third party buyer for such

DENOTE SUCH OMISSION.



Leased Coal, whether stated as part of the price per ton or not, and whether paid in cash or not. If any Leased Coal mined hereunder shall be consumed
without first being loaded through the loading point or if any Leased Coal is sold at the loading point to a buyer other than an independent third party buyer, the Gross Sales Price of such Leased Coal for the purpose of computing the Percentage
Rate shall be the price then being paid by independent third party buyers for similar coal at similar loading sites.

iii. The term
independent third party shall mean a buyer in which neither Lessee nor any of its Affiliates has a controlling ownership interest or any other means of controlling price.

iv. The term Affiliate shall mean an entity which is controlled by, in control of or under common control with another entity.

7. Minimum Rental; Payment.

a. During the Primary Term, or any extension thereof, Lessee shall pay to Lessor, as a minimum
rental, without regard to the quantity of Leased Coal mined, a monthly minimum rental of [ * ] per month, which sum shall be payable without demand therefor, on or before the 20thday of the calendar month following that for which the minimum rental payment is applicable, beginning with the payment on or before August 20, 2008 for the calendar month of July 2008. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, after Lessee shall have mined [ * ] tons of Leased Coal, then the monthly minimum rental shall be reduced to [ * ] per month for the remainder of the then-current term and any extension thereof. The amount of minimum rental that is
unable to be recouped by Lessee due to the expiration of the right of recoupment as provided in Section 7(c) shall be credited as having been mined for the purposes of calculating such [ * ] tons threshold. Such credit shall be
the number of tons determined by dividing the amount of such expired recoupable amounts by [ * ] per ton. All coal mined from the properties identified on Exhibit D attached hereto (the Third Party Coal Properties) shall also reduce on a
ton-for-ton basis the [ * ] tons required to have been mined by Lessee hereunder in order to reduce the monthly minimum rental payable hereunder. By way of example, if [ * ] tons of coal is mined from the Third Party Coal Properties, then
Lessees monthly minimum rental will reduce in accordance herewith after Lessee shall have mined [ * ] tons of Leased Coal. Lessor shall provide Lessee at least quarterly with a certified statement of the number of tons mined under from
each of the Third Party Coal Properties until the monthly minimum rental has been reduced to [ * ] per month and the Production Minimum obligations under Section 7(g) have terminated.

b. For each month during the Remainder Term and until termination of this Lease, Lessee shall pay to Lessor as rent the sum of [ * ] per month, payable
monthly in advance on or before the first day of each month.

c. Each months Tonnage Royalty shall be credited against such
months minimum rental so that no minimum rental payment shall be due for any month

where Tonnage Royalties equal or exceed the minimum rental. In any month where the Tonnage Royalty falls short of the minimum rental, the difference between
the minimum rental paid and the Tonnage Royalty for that month shall be credited to Lessees account for subsequent months. Lessee shall then have the right to produce and ship, without paying any Tonnage Royalty, such quantities of Leased Coal
as would produce, at the royalty rates prevailing at that time, a Tonnage Royalty equal to that credit. In no event will Lessee pay less during any month than the monthly minimum rental. This right of recoupment may be exercised within 24
consecutive months from the time that the credit accrues. However, this right of recoupment shall terminate upon the expiration or termination of this Lease.

d. Payment of Tonnage Royalty, if any, shall be due after applying the foregoing provisions and
shall be made monthly on or before the 20thday of each calendar month with respect to Leased Coal mined and sold from the Leased Premises during
the preceding month. Each payment of Tonnage Royalty shall be accompanied by a statement showing the Leased Coal mined and sold during the period for which the payment is tendered, the unsold inventory at the beginning and end of the month, the
Gross Sales Price per ton, the number of tons sold at such Gross Sales Price and the royalty due thereon. Any coal sales agent of Lessee is hereby authorized, and Lessee shall instruct such agent, to furnish to Lessor upon Lessors request to
such sales agent (with a copy of such request to Lessee) any information desired by Lessor with regard to the quantities and the Gross Sales Price of the Leased Coal with respect to which Lessor is to receive a payment hereunder.

e. All payments to be made hereunder by Lessee to Lessor shall be wire transferred in immediately available funds to such account as Lessor may from time
to time designate in writing to Lessee, or in such manner as Lessor may from time to time designate in writing. Any late payment shall bear interest at the rate of [ * ] compounded annually on all amounts not paid when due. Interest charges, if
incurred, are intended to compensate Lessor for actual pecuniary loss due to late payment by Lessee. Charging of interest shall not excuse late payment by Lessee or limit Lessors remedies for failure of Lessee to make payments in a timely
fashion.

f. If Lessee shall make any payment of a lesser amount than that due hereunder, Lessor may accept the same as a payment on
account, without any requirement of notice to Lessee of the nature of such acceptance; and Lessor shall not be bound by any notation on any check involving such payment or any statement in any accompanying letter. The existence of a dispute as to
any amount due Lessor shall not relieve Lessee from paying when due the amount not in dispute, and the receipt of such amount shall not be treated as a waiver by Lessor of any of its claims with respect to any amounts in dispute.

g. Subject to Force Majeure and the provision contained in the last sentence of this Section 7(g), Lessee shall produce and ship not less than [ * ]
tons of Leased Coal from the Leased Premises during 2008, not less than [ * ] tons of Leased Coal from the

Leased Premises during each of 2009 and 2010, not less than [ * ] tons of Leased Coal from the Leased Premises during each calendar year thereafter
during the Primary Term and not less than [ * ] tons of Leased Coal from the Leased Premises during each calendar year during any extended term, such minimum amounts being hereinafter referred to as the Production Minimum;
provided, however, that any Adverse Coal for which Lessee pays a Wheelage Fee pursuant to Section 5(a), and any coal mined from the Third Party Coal Properties shall be credited towards the Production Minimum. If Lessee fails during a
calendar year to meet the Production Minimum for such year, then Lessee shall pay an amount equal to the Production Minimum for such year multiplied by the Fixed Rate provided in Section 6(a) less the greater of the Tonnage Royalty or minimum
rental paid during such year, such amount due and payable to Lessor on or before the 25thday of January immediately following the calendar year in
which such failure occurred; provided, however, that such payment in lieu of the complete satisfaction of the Production Minimum shall not be available to Lessee in more than two years during the Primary Term and one year in each extended
term. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the requirement to produce and ship any Production Minimum shall cease on the date that Lessee shall have produced and shipped, or received credit as set forth above for, an aggregate of [ *
] tons of Leased Coal. Any amounts paid by Lessee pursuant to this Section 7(g) shall be recoupable in the same manner and within the same time frame as minimum rental payments as provided in Section 7(c). The requirement to meet, or
make payment under this Section 7(g) in lieu of, the Production Minimum shall be excused in any year that the quarterly reported price of 12,500 Btu, 1.6# SO2Norfolk Southern prompt market coal shall be [ * ] per ton or less as reported by ICAP United index. This Section 7(g) shall not affect the applicability of Section 7(a).

8. Compliance with Laws. Lessee shall observe and promptly comply in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws, statutes,
ordinances, rules, regulations, orders and other similar requirements of any appropriate governmental authority, now or hereafter enacted or promulgated, as they may exist from time to time, which are in any way applicable to Lessee or the Leased
Premises or activities thereon (Laws and Regulations), including, but not limited to, all Laws and Regulations pertaining to the environment and to the working of mines and the health and safety of all persons employed therein or in
connection therewith. Notices of violation, cessation orders or other enforcement orders issued by any governmental authority that are timely abated or appealed in good faith shall not be deemed a breach of this Section 8.

9. Mining Operations.

a. Lessor
shall not direct or control the operations of Lessee and hereby waives and disclaims any right to exercise any supervision, operation or control with respect to the operations of Lessee. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, this
Lease does not empower Lessor to make any decisions regarding Lessees mining operations and Lessor hereby expressly waives and disclaims any right to exercise any supervision, operation or control with respect to the terms and

conditions under which the Leased Coal hereby leased is extracted or prepared, such as, but not limited to, the manner of extraction or preparation or the
amount of Leased Coal to be produced, all within the meaning of the Acts (as defined in Section 18(b)(i)). The parties hereto do acknowledge, however, that Lessor has reserved certain rights and has imposed certain requirements under the terms
of this Lease, including, but not limited to, those rights and requirements provided in Sections 9, 10 and 11, solely for the purpose of preventing waste and protecting the reserved rights of Lessor.

b. Lessee shall diligently develop and continue mining operations on the Leased Premises in an energetic, approved, skillful and workmanlike manner,
utilizing a mine plan reviewed by Lessor, so as to recover the greatest practicable amount of mineable and merchantable Leased Coal from the Leased Premises employing modern machinery and equipment and good mining and reclamation practices and in
accordance with the plans submitted by Lessee to Lessor pursuant to Section 10(b), having due regard for the value of the Leased Premises as a coal-producing property so as to avoid unnecessary damage to and waste of any seams of coal, whether
granted as a part of the Leased Premises or not so granted, and to continue mining operations to extract the same with due diligence during the term of this Lease, subject to Force Majeure. For the purpose of this Lease, the term Force
Majeure shall mean any act or occurrence that is beyond Lessees reasonable control and that is not caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Lessee or its agents or employees and that prevents in any material respect the mining,
processing, transportation or delivery of Leased Coal from the Leased Premises, including, but not limited to, fire, natural flood, damage to or destruction of Lessees mines, improvements or machinery, riot, strike, labor disruption, act of
God or serious accident, terrorist attack, geological abnormalities, non-approval of government or regulatory environmental Permits required for mining operations provided Lessee has done all things reasonably necessary to secure such Permits, or
other similar causes beyond the reasonable control of Lessee. Lessee shall, however, upon the happening of any event of Force Majeure, use all commercially reasonable efforts to remove or abate the cause of the inability to mine, process, transport
and deliver Leased Coal.

c. Lessor shall at all times have the right, in compliance with all applicable safety requirements, to enter the
Leased Premises and workings and mines of Lessee in order to determine that all the terms and conditions of this Lease are fully complied with and for these purposes to use freely the means of access to the Leased Premises and workings thereon
without hindrance, but in such manner as not unreasonably to interfere with Lessees operations.

d. If Lessor finds and reports to
Lessee in writing that, in the progress of the work, any areas of merchantable and mineable Leased Coal have been passed by with the result that Leased Coal has not been removed, which in accordance with good mining practices should have been
removed, Lessee agrees either to (i) return to such areas and remove the Leased Coal therefrom or (ii) pay for the Leased Coal under the lost coal provision as provided in Section 9(e).

e. Lessee shall pay full Tonnage Royalty at the rate herein stipulated



10

upon all mineable and merchantable Leased Coal, whether in place or mined, which is burned, lost, destroyed, abandoned or injured by fire or explosion
(Lost Coal), when such loss is caused by negligence of Lessee or its agents or employees or the failure of Lessee to properly mine or provide for the mining of such Leased Coal by the methods of mining described in Section 9(b).
Lost Coal shall be paid for according to the following formula: (Lease Royalty Rate) X (Average Gross Sales Price) X (Recoverable Tons). The Lease Royalty Rate is provided in Section 6(a). The Average Gross Sales Price as used in this
subsection is the average of the Gross Sales Prices for all Leased Coal sold during the month preceding the month of the occurrence of Lost Coal during which Leased Coal was actually sold pursuant to this Lease. Recoverable Tons is the percentage of
tons in place that could reasonably be expected to be recovered, taking into consideration mining conditions, geology and other relevant factors. If Lessor and Lessee cannot agree on the quantity of Recoverable Tons, the quantity shall be determined
pursuant to Section 36. The Lost Coal for partially mined areas shall be calculated using the pre-mining tons in place and deducting therefrom actual tons mined. Payment for Lost Coal shall be made by Lessee to Lessor within one month following
such loss.

f. Lessee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent trespass on the mines operated hereunder and shall, at its own
expense and in its own name (and in the name of Lessor when specifically authorized by Lessor), initiate and conduct all proceedings necessary to that end. Lessor, or any person acting on its behalf, shall have the right to enter the Leased Premises
at all reasonable times to inspect for or prevent any trespass; provided, however, that Lessor shall not be obligated to make such inspections nor will Lessor be responsible in any manner for any such trespass.

g. Lessee shall use reasonable care and precaution to (i) prevent the occurrence of fires in timber or forest growth on the surface overlying the
Leased Premises, (ii) prevent mine fires in the coal seams on the Leased Premises and (iii) pursue the prompt extinguishment of any such fires caused by its activities. Lessee shall also cooperate with Lessor and its other lessees in
extinguishing such fires on the Leased Premises and on adjoining lands that may be liable to spread to or over the Leased Premises. Lessee shall be responsible for all injuries and damages caused by Lessee or its contractors or agents or by fire,
including, but not limited to, damages to timber and forest growth and injuries to persons or property on the Leased Premises or adjoining lands, if such fire is caused by the negligence of Lessee or its employees, subcontractors, agents or assigns.

h. Lessee shall have the right to employ reputable contract operators on the Leased Premises to mine and deliver Leased Coal to Lessee for
preparation and marketing; provided, however, that Lessee shall (i) remain liable for the performance of all of the terms of this Lease and (ii) include in its mining agreement with its contractor language relating to this Lease in
substantially the following form:

Receipt of Lease. Contractor acknowledges receipt of pertinent provisions of the Amended and
Restated Coal Lease (the Lease)

c. Lessee agrees to give Lessor reasonable notice of its or any contractors intention to submit a permit application under Kentucky or Virginia
state law or other applicable Laws and Regulations any area in, on or under the Leased Premises. Lessor will not withhold unreasonably its consent to any request for a change in post-mining land use for all or any portion of the Leased Premises (it
being understood that it shall not be unreasonable for Lessor to withhold its consent to a change in post-mining land use that adverse affects Lessors ability to use the Leased Premises for timber operations), and Lessor will execute any
waivers or other documents reasonably requested by Lessee in connection with its permitting activities.

d. Once every month, Lessee shall
furnish to Lessor maps and/or electronic files in a format acceptable to Lessor which accurately show workings and the extension of Lessees mining operations on, and the volume of Leased Coal removed from, the Leased Premises during the
preceding month, and any other reasonable information requested by Lessor. Such maps and/or electronic files shall show measurements of coal and impurities in the coal at intervals not exceeding 200 feet in every direction and at intermediate places
whenever coal thickness significantly changes. The maps shall be on a scale of five hundred (500) feet to one (1) inch (three sets) for deep mining and surface mining operations and one hundred (100) feet to one (1) inch (one
set) or such other scale as requested in writing by Lessor and shall be based on tied surveys of all workings utilizing the Kentucky State Plane Coordinate System or Virginia State Plane Coordinate System, as applicable and shall be delivered to
Lessor at its designated office. Lessee agrees to provide any additional maps, electronic files or other documentation that may be required by the Prime Lease in a timely manner so as to allow Lessor to review such documents and timely submit such
documents to the Prime Lessor.

e. Lessor itself, or through its agents, shall at all times have access to the plans, Permit applications
(amendments and completions), maps, electronic files and exploration and quality data pertaining to Lessees mining operations in a form acceptable to Lessor and may take therefrom copies of such portions thereof as Lessor or its agents may
desire. If Lessee fails to furnish maps or other records as herein provided for and continues not to furnish such maps or documents for a period of 20 days after written demand by Lessor, Lessor may employ a competent engineer to make a survey of
the mining developments of Lessee as herein provided and the expense thereof shall be paid by Lessee within 10 days after written demand.

f. Lessee shall furnish Lessor on or before the 1stday of March of each year and at such other times as may be fixed by law or required for tax assessments, a statement of and maps showing the acreage of the Leased Coal that was

g. The purpose of providing the plans, maps, documents and electronic files described herein is solely for the purpose of informing Lessor concerning
Lessees efforts to recover mineable and merchantable Leased Coal and advising Lessor of the areas wherein Lessee will be conducting operations. Lessor shall have no power to approve or disapprove plans or maps.

h. It shall be the sole responsibility of Lessee to ascertain by title search, survey and/or other means the accurate boundary lines of the Leased
Premises as may be required by the circumstances before conducting any mining operations in the vicinity of third party boundaries. Lessee shall submit to Lessor when available copies of all original survey notes relating to the Leased Premises, and
shall deliver to Lessor legible, clear, single sheet mylar copies, and any digital equivalent, of all related information, including, but not limited to, hardbacks and tracings.

i. At the expiration or termination of this Lease for any reason, Lessee covenants and agrees to furnish Lessor with a complete and final map, certified
by a registered engineer, of a scale of not more than 200 to 400 feet to the inch, which map shall show all Leased Coal mined by Lessee from the Leased Premises during the term of this Lease. The submission of such map to Lessor by Lessee is
expressly made a condition precedent to Lessees right to be discharged from its obligations hereunder (including the obligation to pay rents and royalties) upon termination of this Lease, any provision herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding.

11. Engineering Audit. Lessor or its agents or engineers, with their assistants, shall have the right, in
compliance with all applicable safety requirements, to enter at all times the Leased Premises and mining operations of Lessee in order to audit, review, examine books and records, select samples of Leased Coal and survey or measure the same or any
part thereof for the purpose of ascertaining the condition of the mines and the methods of mining practiced, as well as the amount of Leased Coal removed, or for any other lawful purpose, and Lessor shall have the right to place and keep an auditor
or other representative upon any tipples, docks or loading facilities at the mines of Lessee for the purpose of checking the weights, measures, accounts and mining methods of Lessee and for these purposes to use freely the means of access to such

shall either (A) fully reclaim and restore the Leased Premises in accordance with all applicable Laws and Regulations and the Permits or (B) leave
the Leased Premises in such condition that mining or other activities by another person or entity may begin immediately after the expiration or termination of this Lease, each as hereinafter more fully described. Lessor in its sole discretion may
elect option (A) for parts or portions of the Leased Premises and option (B) for other parts or portions of the Leased Premises.

ii. If Lessor elects to have any part of the Leased Premises reclaimed and restored, Lessee at its sole cost and expense shall reclaim and restore such Leased Premises as required by all applicable Laws and Regulations and the Permits and
shall initiate and diligently pursue all things reasonably necessary to terminate all Permits held by Lessee regarding such Leased Premises, subject to any long-term water treatment obligations that may require certain Permits to remain in effect
until the satisfaction of such obligations.

iii. If Lessor elects to have Lessee leave any part of the Leased Premises in such condition
that mining or other activities by another person or entity may begin immediately, Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, promptly upon receipt of notice of such election, shall initiate and diligently pursue all things reasonably necessary,
effective as soon as possible after such election is made, to accommodate Lessors election. Lessee shall do all things reasonably requested by Lessor, if such request is made, to permit immediate mining or other activities by another person or
entity, including, but not limited to, the transfer or assignment to Lessor or its designee of applicable Permits, subject to the replacement of all bonds required to be posted in connection with such Permits, except to the extent that Lessee is not
in compliance with such Permits. The parties agree that any noncompliance by Lessee under any applicable Laws and Regulations or Permit shall be determined by a final inspection by the state compliance inspector(s) as close as possible, but prior,
to the time of transfer. Once the activity, if any, which is not in compliance has been corrected by Lessee, such transferee shall be responsible for all future obligations with respect to such activity. During the Remainder Term, if Lessor so
requests, Lessee agrees to transfer any Permit that it then holds on all or any portion of the Leased Premises to any designee thereof or to permit such designee thereof to over-permit any Permit area that may be necessary for any type of
development or other activity as Lessor may request. In such case, Lessee, upon completion of such Permit transfer or over-permitting, shall no longer be responsible for such portion of the Leased Premises hereunder.

16. Taxes.

a. During the Primary
Term (and any extension thereof), Lessee shall promptly and properly, in accordance with all Laws and Regulations and all pertinent rulings and case law, pay at the times they become due and payable all taxes, fees, levies, assessments (including,
but not limited to, black lung benefits and assessments), ad valorem, excise, license, privilege or severance taxes, and any other charges whether imposed by the United States, any State, any political subdivision thereof or any municipal
corporation (collectively, Taxes) upon or with respect to: (1) the Leased Coal and that portion of the surface of the Leased Premises used by

Lessee in its mining operations; (2) Lessees interest in this Lease; (3) the leasehold estate hereby created; (4) all Leased Coal mined
and produced from the Leased Premises by Lessee and the products thereof; (5) the exercise of any right or privilege in connection with Lessees operations hereunder; and (6) any buildings, structures, improvements, equipment and
property of any kind used by Lessee in, on or under the Leased Premises, whether owned by Lessee or Lessor. For the avoidance of doubt, Lessee shall not be liable for Taxes attributable to the surface of the Leased Premises (except that portion of
the surface used by Lessee in its mining operations) or to the timber, oil and gas or other estates not leased to Lessee hereunder. Lessee shall be required to pay the Taxes only with respect to the periods during the Primary Term (or any extension
thereof) for which the Tax is assessed. If this Lease begins or ends during a period for which a Tax is assessed, then such Tax shall be pro-rated between Lessee and Lessor.

b. If Lessor makes any payment, either voluntarily or as required by applicable Laws and Regulations, on account of any or all Taxes required to be paid
by Lessee pursuant to subsection (a) above, then the amount thereof shall be repaid by Lessee to Lessor within 10 days after the date Lessor submits a written statement to Lessee.

c. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is not intended that Lessee shall pay, or be required to pay, any so-called income, profits, excise, occupational or
privilege Taxes levied or assessed upon the income of Lessor. Lessee shall provide to Lessor any filings prepared for submission to the Kentucky State Tax Department or Virginia State Tax Department with respect to the Leased Coal and the Leased
Premises and Lessees mining activity thereon.

17. Indemnity.

a. Lessee does hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lessor and its parents, subsidiaries and other affiliates and their respective members,
partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the Indemnified Parties) from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, demands, obligations, fines or civil penalties,
regardless of when made or arising, by and on behalf of any person, entity or governmental agency arising from or related to Lessees operations on, in or under, or with respect to, the Leased Premises, specifically including, without
limitation, any and all claims (x) for personal injury (including death) and property damage, (y) for salaries and wages and employee or former employee medical, retirement and all other benefits (as defined in
Section 18(b)(ii)) and (z) arising from or related to Lessees noncompliance with any Laws and Regulation or any Permit, together with all costs, fees and expenses (including, but not limited to, court costs and reasonable
attorneys fees) connected with any of the above (collectively, Damages).

b. In the event that any action or proceeding
is brought against any of the Indemnified Parties by reason of any such claim for Damages described above, Lessee will at its sole cost and expense, using counsel reasonably acceptable to

DENOTE SUCH OMISSION.



Lessor, resist and defend such action or proceeding and satisfy any order or judgment against any of the Indemnified Parties resulting therefrom.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if Lessee fails to timely and diligently resist or defend such action or proceeding, Lessor shall have the right, using its own counsel at Lessees expense, to resist and defend such action or proceeding
and (ii) in any event, Lessor shall have the right, using its own counsel at its expense, to defend such action or proceeding upon written notice to Lessee.

c. Lessees indemnity obligations under this Lease shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

18. Workers Compensation; Black Lung.

a. Without limiting the generality of Lessees obligation to conduct its
operations hereunder in conformity with all Laws and Regulations, Lessee agrees that it will become and remain a subscriber to the Workers Compensation Fund of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the Workers Compensation Fund of the
Commonwealth of Virginia or otherwise provide workers compensation coverage for its employees in accordance with all applicable Laws and Regulations.

b. i. Without limiting the generality of Lessees obligation to conduct its operations hereunder in conformity with all Laws and Regulations, Lessee agrees that it shall comply with all of the terms and
provisions of the Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969, as amended by the Black Lung Benefits Act of 1972, the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, the Black Lung Benefits Act of 1977 and the Black Lung Benefits Reform Act of 1977,
as now or hereafter amended and all rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto (collectively, the Acts).

ii. Lessee
acknowledges that, as among Lessor and Lessee and for the purposes of this Lease, Lessee is, and shall be deemed to be, the operator of any coal mine for the mining of the Leased Coal from the Leased Premises and of all related activities engaged in
by Lessee or persons under contract with Lessee pursuant to the terms of this Lease with respect to any claim for black lung benefits or any other social benefit (benefits) filed by or on account of its employees or former
employees pursuant to the Acts, the Coal Industry Retiree Health Benefits Act of 1992 (the Coal Act) or any similar or successor statute or amendment to the Acts or the Coal Act. Lessee shall secure and shall require any other person or
entity who operates, controls or supervises a coal mine in, on or under the Leased Premises or performs services of construction, transportation or other activities related to coal mining under the terms of this Lease, or who otherwise may be liable
for the payment of benefits, to secure the payment of such benefits to or on account of their employees or their former employees in accordance with all applicable Laws and Regulations and shall provide Lessor, at least annually and more often upon
request, with appropriate certification that each of them has provided security in compliance with all applicable Laws and Regulations for the payment of such benefits. Lessee shall notify Lessor immediately in writing of any changes or alterations
in the status of any such security.

iii. Without limiting the generality of Lessees obligation to comply with all other provisions of this Lease, Lessee agrees that it will secure and
guarantee the payment of all benefits, if any, required to be paid under the Acts or the Coal Act or any similar act or successor statute or amendment to the Acts or the Coal Act by reason of said mining, construction, transportation or related
activities pursuant to this Lease, and Lessee does hereby agree that it will indemnify and hold harmless Lessor from and against any Damages which Lessor may suffer, directly or indirectly, as a result of or with respect to any claim for benefits
filed by or on account of any of Lessees employees or former employees or employees or former employees of others for whom Lessee may be required to secure the payment of benefits under subsection (ii) above.

c. Lessee acknowledges that Lessor has reserved certain rights and imposed certain requirements under the terms of this Lease solely for the purpose of
assuring that the coal in, on and under the Leased Premises is recovered in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Lease so as to prevent waste and protect the reserved rights of Lessor; provided, however, that such reserved rights
shall in no event cause Lessor to be or be considered an operator as defined in the Acts or the Coal Act with respect to Lessees employees or the employees of others.

19. Insurance. Without limiting Lessees undertaking to protect, indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Indemnified Parties as provided in
this Lease, and without limiting the generality of Lessees obligation to conduct its operations hereunder in conformity with all Laws and Regulations, Lessee agrees at its own cost to procure and maintain at all times during the term of this
Lease from insurance companies (or statutory funds) reasonably acceptable to Lessor the insurance coverages as hereinafter set forth:

provided by a combination of primary and excess policies as long as all requirements and coverages are provided thereunder. The foregoing minimum requirements shall not limit Lessees liability to Lessor in any manner.

e. Prior to commencement of any operations under this Lease, Lessee shall provide to Lessor acceptable evidence in the form of an original certificate or
certificates of insurance from the respective insurance companies confirming that all coverages and policies required herein are in full force and effect in the form required, that Lessor and the Indemnified Parties have been included as additional
insureds where required and that Lessor will be notified in writing not less than 30 days prior to the cancellation or non-renewal of any such insurance. Upon request of Lessor, Lessee shall provide duplicate originals of such policies to Lessor.
Lessee shall require its contractors, subcontractors and other agents performing any work in, on or under the Leased Premises to obtain and maintain insurance for the risks and in accordance with all the terms in this Section 19 but at
reasonable limits designated by Lessee.

20. Liens and Encumbrances.

a. Except for certain liens and encumbrances that Lessor consents to in writing, Lessee shall not permit any lien or encumbrance to accrue on the Leased
Premises or any part thereof, except a lien for ad valorem property taxes not due or payable. In the event that any non-permitted encumbrance or lien on the Leased Premises or appurtenances accrues, Lessee shall cause the same to be promptly
discharged and removed. If Lessee fails to promptly discharge or remove any such lien or encumbrance, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to take such actions as may be necessary to remove or satisfy the same. Without limiting the
generality of Lessees indemnification of the Indemnified Parties against breach-related Damages, Lessee shall be obligated to reimburse Lessor for any costs, expenses, disbursements or attorneys fees necessarily incurred in protecting
the Leased Premises from such liens and encumbrances and shall pay the same at the next succeeding payment of the Tonnage Royalty or the Minimum Rental. Lessee shall have the right to contest in the courts or otherwise the validity of any such lien
or encumbrance.

b. Lessee covenants and agrees that this Lease and all or any part of the Leased Premises are not intended to be an
equitable servitude or any other property interest for the benefit of a third party. Lessee further covenants and agrees that it shall not create an equitable servitude upon the Leased Premises by virtue of any collective bargaining
agreement, agreement of understanding, contract, subcontract, license, sublease, assignment, employment practice, successorship clause or any other contract with a third party which has no interest in the Leased Premises. Lessor shall have the
right, at its option, to terminate this Lease and forfeit the leasehold estate without any further action by Lessor unless Lessee shall have removed any such equitable servitude within 30 days after written notice from Lessor.

21. Environmental Damage. Without limiting the generality of Lessees indemnification of the Indemnified Parties against environmental and
environmental-related Damages, Lessee agrees that it will conduct its mining operations on the Leased Premises in such manner as to not cause the Indemnified Parties to incur any liability due to pollution or discoloration of streams fed by waters
from the Leased



22

DENOTE SUCH OMISSION.



Premises resulting from such operations or interference with the present bed of such streams or their natural flow resulting from such operations. Lessee
further agrees that it will conduct all of its operations under this Lease in a careful and prudent manner and in such a way as to not cause the Indemnified Parties to incur any liability arising therefrom, and Lessee shall be solely responsible for
the treatment of any water discharges arising out of, connected with or related to its mining or other activities under this Lease in, on or under the Leased Premises or adjacent lands to the full extent required by present or future Law and
Regulations, which responsibility of Lessee as well as the aforesaid indemnification shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. The obligations of Lessee under this Section 21 are in addition to, not in lieu of, other sections
of this Lease regarding indemnification, insurance and Lessees other obligations.

22. Boundary Coal. If Lessee shall acquire
other coal properties which adjoin and have a common boundary with the Leased Premises, in order to avoid unnecessary loss of Leased Coal, Lessor waives any present or future requirement of law relating to the leaving of coal at or near boundaries
and consents to the mining and removal of all of the Leased Coal within any distance of any boundary between the Leased Premises and other coal lands and coal leaseholds now or hereafter owned by Lessee; provided, however, that Lessee must
also obtain a similar waiver from the owners of such other coal lands.

23. Condemnation.

a. In the event that any governmental agency formally begins, or indicates a desire to bring, condemnation proceedings related to the Leased Coal or the
Leased Premises, Lessor and Lessee shall jointly resist and/or negotiate with the condemnation authority.

b. In the event that any part of
the Leased Coal or Leased Premises is taken by eminent domain or condemnation, Lessor shall not in any manner be liable to Lessee for untimely termination of this Lease or the consequential inability of Lessee or its successors to conduct mining
operations at all or on the scale anticipated by Lessee before such eminent domain or condemnation proceedings were exercised, nor for any loss or liability for any reduction in anticipated profit by Lessee resulting as a consequence of the
attempted and/or actual condemnation. The Minimum Rental shall be reduced on a pro-rata basis for any material amount of Leased Coal taken by eminent domain or condemnation; provided, however, that no adjustment shall be made unless and until
the amount of Leased Coal so taken exceeds ten percent (10%) of the remaining recoverable reserves.

c. If all or any part of the
Leased Premises is taken or condemned, each of Lessor and Lessee shall pursue its own claim for compensation; provided, however, that Lessor and Lessee shall cooperate in their efforts to maximize each partys compensation award.

24. Substances Mixed With Coal. Lessee covenants and agrees that it will



23

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND

FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND

EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BOXES AND ASTERISKS

DENOTE SUCH OMISSION.



not mine from the Leased Premises any substances mixed with the coal, except to the extent that such substances necessarily must be removed in Lessees
ordinary mining process, and that such substances shall not be removed and sold unless and until there is mutual agreement regarding division of proceeds received therefrom.

25. Timber. In conducting operations on the surface of the Leased Premises, Lessee shall use reasonable care to do as little damage to the timber
and surface as is practicable consistent with its obligation to mine all mineable and merchantable coal. Lessee agrees to delineate on the ground or on trees by paint marks or ribbons, the limitations of ground surface to be disturbed by surface
operations and to give notice to Lessor at least 90 days in advance of any such operations which will require the removal of any timber or would result in damage thereto so as to permit Lessor or its agents, contractors or assigns to cut and remove
the timber in question. If Lessor does not remove the timber that is the subject of such notice, Lessee may arrange to have such timber removed and may offset the cost of cutting such timber by the receipt of revenues for the sale of such timber
only up to the actual cost incurred by lessee in having such timber removed. All revenues over and above the actual cost of timber removal incurred by Lessee shall be the property of Lessor and shall be promptly remitted thereto within 30 days of
the receipt thereof by Lessee.

26. Roads. Lessee is granted the non-exclusive right to use existing roads on the Leased Premises.
Lessor reserves for itself and its other existing and future lessees, sublessees, contractors and other designees the non-exclusive right to use existing roads and roads hereafter constructed by Lessee and, to the extent Lessees consent is
required therefor, Lessee shall provide such consent. Where, in the conduct of its activities pursuant to this Lease, it is necessary for Lessee to alter or destroy existing roads, Lessee shall provide substantially equivalent alternate access
needed by the users of such roads. Lessee shall, at its own expense, keep and maintain all of the roads used by it on the Leased Premises in usable condition and repair and in at least as good condition as the same now are. To the extent such
existing roads or roads hereafter constructed are used by Lessee, Lessor or other grantees of Lessor, with respect to such other grants made after the date of this Lease, all such users of such roads shall share, on an equitable basis based upon the
total tonnage hauled over such roads by such user, or some other mutually acceptable method, in the cost of maintaining such roads as are commonly used, and the users thereof shall keep such records as are necessary to ascertain the proper
apportionment of the costs therefor. The users of such roads shall establish between themselves the necessary agreements to accomplish the mutual sharing of such costs, liabilities and indemnifications with respect thereto, and no other user shall
have the right to use such roads in the absence of such an agreement.

27. Essential Reliance. It is understood that it is the
essence of this Lease that Lessor enters into this Lease expressly relying upon the demonstrated skill, experience, character, substance, credit and ability of Lessee and its present management. Lessor and Lessee hereto expressly recognize and
acknowledge that the obligations of Lessee hereunder are personal services of Lessee, a Lessee whom



24



---

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND

FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND

EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BOXES AND ASTERISKS

DENOTE SUCH OMISSION.



Lessor considers to be uniquely competent and qualified to perform those services. Recognizing such unique competence, qualification, skill, credit,
character and substance of Lessee, Lessor enters into this Lease because of the special trust and confidence that Lessor has in the ability of Lessee to perform its obligations hereunder. For these reasons, Lessor demands, and Lessee specifically
agrees to, performance of all Lessees obligations under this Lease from Lessee alone and from no other person or entity. Lessor and Lessee expressly recognize and acknowledge that performance by some person or entity other than Lessee would,
by the very nature of the services to be rendered by Lessee under this Lease, constitute something essentially different from the performance contemplated by Lessor and Lessors reliance upon Lessee under this Lease. Therefore, Lessor and
Lessee hereto expressly agree that the obligations of Lessee contemplated under this Lease shall be performed only by Lessee, subject to Sections 9(h) and 28.

28. Assignment Prohibited. Lessee agrees that it will not assign, let, sublease, encumber, pledge, mortgage or otherwise transfer its rights under this Lease, either voluntarily or by operation of law, without
the prior written consent of Lessor; provided, however, that Lessee shall have the right to sublease or assign this Lease to an Affiliate without the consent of Lessor; provided, further, that, notwithstanding any such sublease or
assignment, Lessee shall remain fully liable for performance of all of the terms and conditions of this Lease. Lessee shall provide Lessor with written notice of any assignment to an Affiliate within 10 days after such assignment. Any violation of
the terms and provisions of this Section 28 by Lessee shall, at the option of Lessor, automatically forfeit and terminate this Lease. Any transaction or series of related transactions following which Lessee is no longer controlled by either
ICG, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or International Coal Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, shall constitute an assignment within the meaning of this Section 28. For purposes of this Section 28, control shall
mean the power to direct or cause the direction of, either directly or indirectly, the management or policies of Lessee, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

29. Collection of Rents  Rights Reserved. All rents and royalties required to be paid to Lessor hereunder shall be deemed and considered as
rent reserved for the Leased Premises, and Lessor shall have for the collection thereof all of the rights and remedies which landlords may now or hereafter have for the collection of rent reserved upon contract under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Kentucky and the Commonwealth of Virginia.

30. Default; Forfeiture; Remedies Cumulative.

a. In any of the following events, that is to say:

i. Lessee shall fail to pay any rent or royalty for 10 days after written notice of any non-payment of any such payment due under this Lease; or

ii. Lessee shall fail on more than two occasions within any consecutive 12-month period to timely pay any installment of rent, royalty or other payment due under this Lease within five days after when first due and
payable; or

iii. Lessee shall fail for a period of 30 days after written demand therefor to pay or repay any sums due for taxes as provided in this Lease; or

iv. Lessee shall abandon the Leased Premises; or

v. Lessee shall fail to keep and perform any of the terms, conditions, covenants and agreements of this Lease to be kept and performed, and, if any such failure as provided in this subpart (v) is not cured or
reasonable efforts to cure such failure are not commenced, and diligently prosecuted thereafter, within 30 days after Lessor shall have given written notice of such default to Lessee; or

vi. Lessee shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or discharged by any court as an insolvent debtor, or if any receiver or assignee or other person or persons
be appointed by any court to take charge of the Leased Premises or the property of Lessee, or the mines and equipment upon the same;

then, in any such
event, all rights of Lessee under this Lease to mine, process and ship Leased Coal as provided in this Lease shall, at the option of Lessor (except for an event specified in (vi) immediately above, which event shall cause a forfeiture and
termination ipso facto), become forfeited and cease and determine, and Lessor shall have the right to re-enter the Leased Premises and to exclude Lessee therefrom and to hold the Leased Premises free of any claims of Lessee, anything herein
contained to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that Lessee shall thereafter fully comply with, perform and complete all of its reclamation, environmental and other obligations under this Lease, and Lessee shall have reasonable
access to the Leased Premises for such purpose.

b. Upon any declaration of forfeiture, all estate, rights and privileges of Lessee to
mine, process and ship Leased Coal as provided in this Lease shall cease and determine, and Lessor may thereupon or at any time thereafter, without further notice, demand or action by it or any of its agents, re-enter and take possession of the
Leased Premises, or any part thereof in the name of the whole, and Lessor in making such re-entry and taking possession of the Leased Premises shall have the right to do so without legal action, or without notice or process, as may be required by
the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky or the Commonwealth of Virginia. In the event that Lessor exercises the right herein provided to declare such forfeiture, Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for any injury or damage by reason thereof, and
Lessee hereby expressly waives and releases any and every claim for any such injury or damage.

c. All provisions contained in this Lease
for the collection of rents, royalties or other payments, or concerning the remedy of Lessor in case of breach by Lessee of any condition, covenant or agreement contained in this Lease, shall be deemed to be cumulative and not exclusive and shall
not deprive Lessor of any of its other legal or equitable remedies which may now or hereafter be provided under the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky or the Commonwealth of Virginia.

d. No delay or omission of Lessor to exercise any right, remedy or lien accruing upon any default or forfeiture under this Lease, or otherwise available
to it, shall impair, prejudice or waive any such right, remedy or lien, but every such right, remedy and lien may be exercised by Lessor on account of any subsequent breach in the same manner and to the same extent as if such delay or omission had
not occurred.

31. Removal of Property Upon Expiration or Termination. Unless specified otherwise in the Prime Lease with respect to
property on the Leased Premises subject to the Prime Lease, upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, at Lessors option, either (a) Lessee shall have 90 days within which to remove all of its property, whether affixed or not, from
the Leased Premises, and any such property not so removed by Lessee within such applicable period shall, at the election of Lessor, become the absolute property of Lessor or, to the extent required by the Prime Lease, of the Prime Lessor or
(b) Lessor shall purchase any or all such property from Lessee at a purchase price equal to the fair market value thereof as determined by an independent appraiser retained by Lessor and reasonably acceptable to Lessee. Lessee may leave in the
Leased Premises such of its property as may be required to complete or comply with valid governmental reclamation or environmental or other requirements for such period of time as may be reasonably necessary for such completion or compliance.

32. Release Upon Expiration or Termination. Upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, Lessee shall execute and deliver to
Lessor, in such form as will permit recordation of the same, a written release and relinquishment of all of the right, title and interest acquired under this Lease in and to the Leased Premises, including such property as Lessee is hereby required
to leave on the Leased Premises.

33. Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of either Lessor or Lessee in exercising any of their
respective rights under this Lease upon any failure by the other party to perform or observe any condition, covenant or provision contained in this Lease shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such rights
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right under this Lease.

34. Successors Bound. All
covenants and agreements contained in this Lease shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon and fully performed by the respective parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

35. Notices. All requests, statements, notices and demands shall be deemed given and served (x) three business days after mailing, if sent by
registered or certified mail, postage and registration or certification fee prepaid, return receipt requested, or (y) one business day after sending, if sent by overnight delivery, addressed as follows:

or to such other person or address as either party may prescribe from time to time by written notice to the other
party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice to or demand upon Lessee may be served or given in the manner required by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and Commonwealth of Virginia for service of process.

36. Dispute Settlement and Arbitration. If at any time during the continuance of this Lease, or any extension thereof, any dispute shall arise
between Lessor and Lessee under this Lease or under any of the terms and provisions hereof which cannot be agreed upon by the parties hereto, then such dispute shall be referred to a board of arbitrators (the Board). The Board shall be
comprised of one representative of Lessor and one representative of Lessee, to be selected by Lessor and Lessee, respectively, and a third arbitrator who shall be chosen by the two arbitrators herein provided for. Each arbitrator shall have at least
10 years experience in the coal mining and/or coal land management business. In the event that the two arbitrators are unable to agree within 15 days upon a third arbitrator, then the American Arbitration Association shall designate a disinterested
person to act as such arbitrator; and, in the event that the Receiving Party (as defined below) should, for a period of 15 days after receipt of an Arbitration Notice (as defined below), fail to select and make known in writing to the Notifying
Party (as defined below) the arbitrator selected by the Receiving Party, the Board shall be comprised of the one sole arbitrator chosen by the Notifying Party. Either party (the Notifying Party) may at any time serve upon the other (the
Receiving Party) a notice (an Arbitration Notice) setting forth the point or points upon which the decision of the Board is desired and the identity of the arbitrator chosen by the Notifying Party. Within 15 days after the
date of such Arbitration Notice, the Receiving Party shall deliver a counter-notice to the Notifying Party which shall identify the arbitrator chosen by the Receiving Party and which may specify any additional points or differences arbitrable
hereunder upon which the Receiving Party may desire a

decision. The Board shall give 10 days written notice of the time and place of hearing to the respective parties and shall determine questions submitted to
it for arbitration and make its decision and award in writing. The decision and award of a majority of the arbitrators (or the sole arbitrator, as the case may be) shall be final, conclusive and obligatory upon the parties to this Lease and their
successors and assigns, and without appeal, and each party hereto agrees to abide by and comply with every such decision and award. Judgment on the award of the Board may be entered and enforced by a court of competent jurisdiction. The costs of
each party in connection with any such arbitration shall in the first instance be paid by such party, but if such party substantially prevails therein, it shall be reimbursed therefor by the other party, and the question of costs shall in each case
be determined by the Board when it renders its decision on the question or questions submitted to it. Notwithstanding the requirement to arbitrate any dispute, any party may apply to a court for interim measures, such as injunctions, attachments and
conservation orders, which measures may be immediately enforced by court order. Any decision with respect to such interim measures shall promptly be referred to the Board for review and final decision.

37. Relationship Between the Parties. Nothing herein contained or hereby implied, including, without limitation, rights reserved by Lessor to use
the Leased Premises for purposes other than those which are granted to Lessee, to receive and examine development plans and maps, to review Lessees records and otherwise audit and inspect Lessors operations and their impact on the Leased
Coal and/or the Leased Premises, shall be construed as creating or constituting by implication or otherwise an obligation of or right in Lessor to control or otherwise correct Lessees acts and omissions or a lessening of Lessees duties
to indemnify Lessor and provide insurance herein required or any relationship or partnership, mining partnership, joint venture, agency or of employer and employee between Lessor, on the one hand, and Lessee, on the other hand, it being understood
that the relationship between them is solely that of Lessor and Lessee.

38. Power of Attorney. Lessee acknowledges that pursuant to
certain provisions hereof, it is required to provide, upon request of Lessor, certain consents, waivers, transfers, assignments and other documentation. Accordingly, in the event Lessee fails to deliver any such consent within 15 days after written
demand therefor, which demand shall describe the provisions hereof requiring such and the circumstances which provide the basis for such demand, Lessee may elect to submit such matter to arbitration as herein provided. In further consideration of
this Lease, Lessee does hereby irrevocably designate any officer of Lessor as its attorney-in-fact with the power and authority to execute and deliver on behalf of Lessee such consents, waivers, transfers, assignments and other documentation which
are the subject of the written demand given by Lessor to Lessee in the event that Lessee fails to submit such matter for arbitration, or Lessee, after submitting such matter to arbitration and receiving a decision in favor of Lessor, fails to comply
with a decision of the Board directing it to provide such consents, waivers, transfers, assignments or other documentation within 15 days after such decision. Presentation of an executed copy of this Lease and a copy of the written demand or, if
arbitrated, a written decision of the Board shall constitute sufficient evidence of the nature and extent of this designation by Lessee.
