 (b) The Credit Agreement, the Notes and each of the other Loan Documents, as
specifically amended by this Amendment, are and shall continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed. 
  
 (c) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or
remedy of any Lender or the Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents.

 14

“Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”, (the Borrower and the Guarantor Subsidiaries, collectively, the “Loan Parties”), in connection with the negotiation, execution
and delivery of the following agreements and documents: 
  

 1 








 (a) Three Year Credit Agreement, dated as of September 16, 2002, as amended by that
certain letter amendment dated as of November 22, 2002 and Amendment No. 2 to the Loan Documents (“Amendment No. 2”) dated as of September 15, 2003 (such Agreement as so amended, the “Three Year Credit Agreement”),
among the Borrower, the lenders party thereto (the “Three Year Lenders”), and Citicorp North America, Inc., as agent (in such capacity and as agent under the 364-Day Credit Agreement referred to below, the “Agent”);

  
 (b) Amended and Restated 364-Day Credit
Agreement, dated as of September 15, 2003 (the “364-Day Credit Agreement” and together with the Three Year Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”), among the Borrower, the lenders party thereto (the
“364-Day Lenders” and, together with the Three Year Lenders, the “Lenders”), and the Agent; 
  
 (c) Subsidiary Guaranty, dated as of March 31, 2002, from the Guarantor Subsidiaries party thereto to the Three Year Administrative Agent,
as supplemented by a certain Guaranty Supplement, dated as of September 15, 2003 (such Guaranty as so supplemented, the “Three Year Subsidiary Guaranty”); 
  
 (d) Subsidiary Guaranty, dated as of September 15, 2003 from the Guarantor Subsidiaries to the 364-Day
Administrative Agent, (the “364-Day Subsidiary Guaranty” and together with the Three Year Subsidiary Guaranty, the “Subsidiary Guaranties”); 
  
 (e) Subordination Agreement, dated as of September 15, 2003 (the “Subordination
Agreement”), executed by each Loan Party in favor of the Agents and the Lenders; 
  
 (f) Security Agreement, dated as of September 15, 2003 (the “Security Agreement”), executed by each Loan Party in favor
of Citicorp North America, Inc., as collateral agent; 
  
 (g) Mortgages (as defined in the Credit Agreement); and 
  
 (h) the articles of incorporation and by-laws (or similar constitutive documents) of each Loan Party, in each case as amended through the date hereof. 
  
 This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 2(g) of Amendment No. 2 and Section 3.01(h) of the 364-Day Credit
Agreement. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreements and the Security Agreement are used herein as therein defined; and terms defined in Articles 1, 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Pennsylvania UCC”) are used herein as therein defined. 
  
 I am familiar with the corporate proceedings taken by the Borrower and the Guarantor Subsidiaries in connection with the foregoing agreements and
documents and the transactions contemplated thereby. In addition, I have examined such corporate records, certificates and other documents and such questions of law as I have considered necessary or appropriate for the basis of the opinions
hereinafter expressed. 
  

 2 








 In making the examination of all documents and agreements in connection with the opinions expressed
herein, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals and the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to me as copies. In my examination of the documents referred
to above, I have assumed the due execution and delivery of each of the documents referred to above by all parties thereto other than the Loan Parties. 
  
 Based upon, and subject to, the foregoing, I am of the opinion that: 
  
 1. The Borrower is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware. The Borrower is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation authorized to do business in each jurisdiction where its ownership or leasing of real estate, ownership of substantial assets other than real estate, conduct of
substantial business or location of employees require it to be so qualified and where the failure so to qualify would reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse Effect. 
  
 2. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is a corporation, general partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, duly
formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation, foreign partnership or foreign limited liability company,
as the case may be, authorized to do business in each jurisdiction where its ownership or leasing of real estate, ownership of substantial assets other than real estate, conduct of substantial business, or location of employees require it to be so
qualified and where the failure so to qualify would reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse Effect. 
  
 3. The Borrower has full corporate power and authority to own and operate its properties and assets, carry on its business as currently conducted, and
enter into and perform its obligations under the Credit Agreements, the Notes, and each other Loan Document executed by it. 
  
 4. Each Guarantor Subsidiary has full corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to own and operate its
properties and assets, carry on its business as currently conducted, and enter into and perform its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranties and each other Loan Document executed by it. 
  
 5. The execution and delivery of the Credit Agreements, the Notes, the
Subordination Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Mortgages and each other Loan Document to which it is a party, and the performance by the Borrower of its obligations thereunder, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the
part of the Borrower, and all of said documents and instruments have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrower. 
  
 6. The execution and delivery of the Subsidiary Guaranties and each other Loan Document to which it is a party, and the performance by each Guarantor
Subsidiary of its obligations thereunder, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership or limited liability company action, as the case may be, on the part of such Guarantor Subsidiary and the Subsidiary Guaranties and such
other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Guarantor Subsidiary. 
  

 3 








 7. There is no provision in the articles of incorporation or the by-laws of the Borrower, nor any
provision in any indenture, mortgage, contract, voting trust or agreement known to me after due inquiry to which the Borrower is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound, nor any law, statute, rule or regulation, nor any writ, order or
decision known to me after due inquiry of any court or governmental instrumentality binding on the Borrower which would be contravened by the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreements, the Notes, or any other Loan Document to which it is a
party nor do any of the foregoing prohibit performance by the Borrower of any term, provision, condition, covenant or any other obligation of the Borrower contained therein. 
  
 8. There is no provision in the articles of incorporation or the by-laws (or similar constitutive documents) of any
Guarantor Subsidiary, nor any provision in any indenture, mortgage, contract, voting trust or agreement known to me after due inquiry to which any Guarantor Subsidiary is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound, nor any law, statute,
rule or regulation, nor any writ, order or decision known to me after due inquiry of any court or governmental instrumentality binding on any Guarantor Subsidiary which would be contravened by the execution and delivery of the Subsidiary Guaranty or
any other Loan Document to which it is a party, nor do any of the foregoing prohibit performance by any Guarantor Subsidiary of any term, provision, condition, covenant or any other obligation of any Guarantor Subsidiary contained therein.

  
 9. If governed by the law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
the Credit Agreements would be, and each Loan Document executed by any Loan Party would on the due execution and delivery thereof be, the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject, as to
enforcement, only to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws at the time in effect affecting the enforceability of the rights of creditors generally, and by general equitable principles. 
  
 10. The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of the Credit Agreements
and each other Loan Document to which it is a party and the performance thereof by each Loan Party and borrowing thereunder by the Borrower will not result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of its properties pursuant to the
provisions of any contractual obligation, other than Liens created or imposed pursuant to the Collateral Documents. 
  
 11. Except as described in the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 4.01(d) of the Three Year Credit Agreement and of the 364-Day
Credit Agreement or in the Disclosure Schedule, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the best of my knowledge after due inquiry, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary before any court or arbitrator(s) or
by or before any administrative agency or governmental authority, which has a reasonable likelihood of being adversely determined and would reasonably be expected to result in a liability in excess of $10,000,000. 
  
 12. Neither the making nor the performance of the Credit Agreements, the
Notes, the Subsidiary Guaranties, the Subordination Agreement, the Security Agreement or the 

  

 4 








 
Mortgages or any other Loan Document requires the consent or approval of any governmental instrumentality under any law, statute, rule or regulation or under
any indenture, mortgage, contract or agreement known to me after due inquiry, except for (i) in the case of the Security Collateral, as may be required in connection with any disposition of any portion of the Security Collateral by laws affecting
the offering and sale of securities generally, (ii) in the case of the exercise of remedies in respect of Collateral subject to the Mortgages, the exercise of such remedies requiring prior court approval and (iii) the filing of financing statements.

  
 13. If governed by the law of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, after giving effect to the making of the loans or other extensions of credit on the date hereof as contemplated by the Credit Agreements, the Security Agreement creates in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, as security for the payment of the Secured Obligations as defined therein, a security interest in all right, title and interest of each of the Loan Parties that is a party to the Security Agreement in and to the Collateral described therein
in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the Pennsylvania UCC (the “Article 9 Collateral”). 
  
 14. Ownership of the stock of subsidiaries. All of the Pledged Shares are owned of record by the Borrower, and have been duly authorized and
validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. 
  
 15. If
governed by the law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, after giving effect to the making of the loans or other extensions of credit on the date hereof as contemplated by the Credit Agreements, the Security Agreement creates in favor of the
Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the payment of the Secured Obligations as defined therein, a security interest under the Pennsylvania UCC in all right, title and interest of the Borrower in and to the
securities (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(15) of the Pennsylvania UCC) identified on Schedule II to the Security Agreement (the “Pledged Securities”; collectively with the Article 9 Collateral, the “Subject
Collateral”). 
  
 I call your attention to the following matters as to
which I express no opinion: 
  
 (a) Indemnification. Any
agreement of a Loan Party in a Loan Document relating to indemnification, contribution or exculpation from costs, expenses or other liabilities that is contrary to public policy or applicable law; 
  
 (b) Jurisdiction, Venue, etc. Any agreement of a Loan Party in a Loan
Document to submit to the jurisdiction of any specific federal or state court, to waive any objection to the laying of the venue, to waive the defense of forum non conveniens in any action or proceeding referred to therein, to waive trial by
jury, to effect service of process in any particular manner or to establish evidentiary standards, and any agreement of a Loan Party regarding the choice of law governing a Loan Document (except as otherwise expressly provided in this opinion
letter); 
  
 (c) Trust Relationship. The creation of any
trust relationship by any Loan Party on behalf of any Lender Party; 
  
 (d) Certain Laws. Federal securities laws or regulations, state securities and Blue Sky laws or regulations, federal and state banking regulatory laws and regulations, pension 

  

 5 








 
and employee benefit laws and regulations, federal and state environmental laws and regulations, federal and state tax laws and regulations, federal and
state health and occupational safety laws and regulations, building code, zoning, subdivision and other laws and regulations governing the development, use and occupancy of real property, the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and
other federal and state antitrust and unfair competition laws and regulations, the Assignment of Claims Act of 1940, and the effect of any of the foregoing on any of the opinions expressed; 
  
 (e) Local Ordinances. The ordinances, statutes, administrative
decisions, orders, rules and regulations of any municipality, county, special district or other political subdivision of a state; 
  
 (f) Certain Agreements of Loan Parties. Any agreement of a Loan Party in a Loan Document providing for: 
  
 (i) specific performance of such Loan Party’s
obligations; 
  
 (ii) the right of any purchaser
of a participation interest from any Lender to set off or apply any deposit, property or indebtedness with respect to any such participation interest; 
  
 (iii) establishment of a contractual rate of interest payable after judgment; 
  
 (iv) adjustments of payments among Lenders or rights of set
off; 
  
 (v) the granting of any power of
attorney; or 
  
 (vi) survival of liabilities and
obligations of any party under any of the Loan Documents arising after the effective date of termination of the Credit Agreements. 
  
 (g) Remedies. Any provision in any Loan Document to the effect that rights or remedies are not exclusive, that every right or remedy is cumulative
and may be exercised in addition to any other right or remedy, that the election of some particular remedy does not preclude recourse to one or more others or that failure to exercise or delay in exercising rights or remedies will not operate as a
waiver of any such right or remedy; 
  
 (h) UCC Choice
of Law. Any provision in any Loan Document with respect to governing law to the extent that such provision purports to affect the choice of law governing perfection and non-perfection of the security interests; 
  
 (i) Sale of Collateral. Any provision in any Loan Document relating to
the sale or other disposition of collateral except in compliance with the Pennsylvania UCC (including any purchase thereof by the Collateral Agent); 
  

 6 








 (j) Custody of Collateral. Any provision in any Loan Document providing for the care of collateral
in the possession of the Collateral Agent to the extent inconsistent with Section 9-207 of the Pennsylvania UCC; and 
  
 (k) Waivers. Any purported waiver, release, variation, disclaimer, consent or other agreement to similar effect (collectively, a
“Waiver”) by any Loan Party under any Loan Document to the extent limited by Sections 1-102(3) or 9-602 of the Pennsylvania UCC or other provisions of applicable law (including judicial decisions), except to the extent that such
Waiver is effective under and is not prohibited by or void or invalid under Section 9-602 of the Pennsylvania UCC or other provisions of applicable law (including judicial decisions). 
  
 (l) Title or Priority. Any person’s ownership rights in or title to, or priority of any security interest or
lien on or with respect to, any property or assets forming any part of any Collateral under the Loan Documents; 
  
 (m) Creation and Perfection of Security Interest in Certain Types of Collateral. The creation, validity, perfection or enforceability of any
security interest purported to be granted in or in respect of any real property, policies of insurance, receivables due from any government or agency thereof, inventory which is subject to any negotiable documents of title (such as negotiable bills
of lading or warehouse receipts), consumer goods, beneficial interests in a trust, letters of credit, commercial tort claims or accounts resulting from the sale of any of the foregoing, or the perfection of any security interest granted in or in
respect of the following: (i) fixtures, equipment used in farming operations, farm products, crops, timber to be cut, or as-extracted collateral; (ii) “know how”, copyrights, patents, trademarks, service marks, licenses, trade secrets,
trade names and other intellectual property or rights therein, except to the extent perfection of a security interest therein is governed by Article 9 of the Pennsylvania UCC; (iii) any property or assets which are subject to (A) a statute or treaty
of the United States which provides for a national or international registration or a national or international certificate of title for the perfection or recordation of a security interest therein or which specifies a place of filing different from
that specified in the Pennsylvania UCC for filing to perfect or record such security interest or (B) a certificate of title statute. 
  
 (n) Enforceability of Lien on Certain Types of Collateral. The enforceability of any lien on or security interest in any Subject Collateral:

  
 consisting of goods of a consignor who has
delivered such goods to any Loan Party under a true consignment (as distinguished from a consignment intended as security); 
  
 as against a “buyer in the ordinary course of business” (within the meaning of Article 9 of the Pennsylvania UCC) of the
Collateral; and 
  
 consisting of inventory of
any Loan Party in the event of any failure by a Loan Party to have fully complied with the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1932, as amended, including Sections 206 and 207 thereof; and 
  

 7 








 (o) Security Interests. The creation, validity, perfection or enforceability of any security
interest or lien purported to be granted in or in respect of any collateral, other than as expressly provided above. 
  
 My opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications: 
  
 (a) Security Interest in Proceeds. My opinions in paragraphs 13 and 15 above are subject to the qualification that the security interest, and
perfection and continuation of perfection of the security interest, of the Collateral Agent in proceeds of Subject Collateral are limited to the extent set forth in Section 9-315 of the Pennsylvania UCC. 
  
 (b) Applicable Law. Further, my opinions in paragraphs 13 above are
limited to Article 9 of the Pennsylvania UCC, and my opinion in paragraph 15 above is limited to Articles 8 and 9 of the Pennsylvania UCC, and therefore those opinions do not address (i) laws other than Article 8 or 9, as the case may be, of the
Pennsylvania UCC, (ii) collateral of a type not subject to Article 8 or 9, as the case may be, of the Pennsylvania UCC, and (iii) what law governs perfection of the security interests granted in the collateral covered by this opinion letter.

  
 (c) Bankruptcy. My opinions in paragraphs 9, 13 and 15
are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency (including, without limitation, laws relating to preferences, fraudulent transfers and equitable subordination), reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting
creditors’ rights generally. 
  
 (d) Equitable
Principles. My opinions are subject to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair
dealing. In applying such principles, a court, among other things, might limit the availability of specific equitable remedies (such as injunctive relief and the remedy of specific performance), might not allow a creditor to accelerate maturity of
debt or exercise other remedies upon the occurrence of a default deemed immaterial or for non-credit reasons or might decline to order a debtor to perform covenants in a Loan Document. Further, a court may refuse to enforce a covenant if and to the
extent that it deems such covenant to be violative of applicable public policy, including, for example, provisions requiring indemnification of a Lender Party against liability for its own wrongful or negligent acts. 
  
 (e) Unenforceability of Certain Provisions. Certain of the provisions
contained in the Security Agreement may be unenforceable or ineffective, in whole or in part, but the inclusion of such provisions does not render the Security Agreement invalid as a whole, and the Security Agreement contains, in my opinion,
adequate remedial provisions for the ultimate practical realization of the principal benefits purported to be afforded by the Security Agreement, subject to the other qualifications contained in this opinion letter. I note, however, that the
unenforceability of such provisions may result in delays in enforcement of the rights and remedies of the Lender Parties under the Loan Documents, and I express no opinion as to the economic consequences, if any, of such delays. 
  
 (f) Noncontravention and Governmental Approvals. We respect to the
opinions expressed in paragraphs 7, 8, and 12, my opinions are limited to my review of only those laws and regulations that, in my experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Loan Documents. 
  

 8 








 (g) Material Changes to Terms. Provisions in the Loan Documents which provide that any obligations
of a Loan Party thereunder will not be affected by the action or failure to act on the part of any Lender Party or by an amendment or waiver of the provisions contained in the other Loan Documents might not be enforceable under circumstances in
which such action, failure to act, amendment or waiver so materially changes the essential terms of the obligations that, in effect, a new contract has arisen between the Lender Parties and the Loan Parties. 
  
 (h) Incorporated Documents. This opinion does not relate to (and I
have not reviewed) any documents or instruments other than the Loan Documents, and I express no opinion as to such other documents or instruments (including, without limitation, any documents or instruments referenced or incorporated in any of the
Loan Documents) or as to the interplay between the Loan Documents and any such other documents and instruments. 
  
 (i) Mathematical Calculations. I have made no independent verification of any of the numbers, schedules, formulae or calculations in the Loan
Documents, and I render no opinion with regard to the accuracy, validity or enforceability of any of them. 
  
 (j) Actions to Continue Effectiveness. I express no opinion as to any actions that may be required periodically under the Pennsylvania UCC or any
other applicable law for the effectiveness of any financing statements, or the perfection of any security interest, to be maintained. 
  
 (k) After-Acquired Property. A security interest in any Subject Collateral that constitutes after-acquired collateral does not attach until the
applicable Loan Party has rights in such after-acquired collateral. 
  
 (l) Rights of Third Parties in Certain Collateral. The rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to Subject Collateral consisting of accounts, instruments, licenses, leases, contracts or other agreements will be subject to the
claims, rights and defenses of the other parties thereto against the Loan Parties. 
  
 (m) Property Acquired after Commencement of Bankruptcy Case. In the case of property which becomes part of the Subject Collateral after the date hereof, Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as
amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) limits the extent to which property acquired by a debtor after the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code may be subject to a security interest arising from a security agreement entered into
by the debtor before the commencement of such case. 
  
 (n)
After-acquired Property as Voidable Preference. In the case of property which becomes part of the Subject Collateral after the date hereof, Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a transfer is not made until the debtor has rights in
the property transferred, so a security interest in after-acquired property which is security for other than a contemporaneous advance may be treated as a voidable preference under the conditions (and subject to the exceptions) provided by Section
547 of the Bankruptcy Code. 
  

 9 








 (o) Rights of Third Parties in Certain Collateral. The rights of the Collateral Agent with respect
to Subject Collateral consisting of accounts, instruments, licenses, leases, contracts or other agreements will be subject to the claims, rights and defenses of the other parties thereto against the Loan Parties. 
  
 (p) Licenses or Permits as Collateral. In the case of any Subject
Collateral consisting of licenses or permits issued by governmental authorities or other persons or entities, the Loan Parties may not have sufficient rights therein for the security interest of the Collateral Agent to attach and, even if the Loan
Parties have sufficient rights for the security interest of the Collateral Agent to attach, the exercise of remedies may be limited by the terms of the license or permit or require the consent of the governmental authority issuing such license or
permit. 
  
 (q) Collateral Evidenced by Instruments. I note
that, if any of the Subject Collateral is evidenced by instruments or tangible chattel paper or any other property in which a security interest may be perfected by taking possession (in each case as defined, and as provided for, in the Pennsylvania
UCC), the local law of the jurisdiction where such property is located will govern the perfection and priority of a possessory security interest in such property and the effect of perfection or non-perfection of a non-possessory security interest in
such property. 
  
 (r) Other UCC Limitations. Such opinions
may also be limited by Subpart 3 and Subpart 4 of Part 3 of Article 9 of the Pennsylvania UCC. 
  
 I am licensed to practice law only in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the foregoing opinions are limited solely to the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the corporate law of the State of Delaware and
federal law. 
  
 This opinion letter is being furnished to the
Lenders and their Transferees for their use and the use of their respective counsel. No other use or distribution of this opinion may be made without prior written consent. 
  
 Very truly yours, 
  
 /s/    Rowland H. Burns, Jr. 
 Senior Counsel

types described in clauses (a) through (h) of this Section 1 and this clause (i)) and, to the extent not otherwise included, all (A) payments under insurance (whether or not the Collateral Agent is the loss payee thereof), or any indemnity, warranty
or guaranty, payable by reason of loss or damage to or otherwise with respect to any of the foregoing Collateral, (B) tort claims, including, without limitation, all commercial tort claims and (C) cash. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the pledge, security interest and lien granted

CNX Funding Corporation under, (i) the Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2003, among PNC Bank, National Association, as administrator (the “Receivables Administrator”), the Conduit Agents and Conduit Purchasers
referred to therein, CNX Funding Corporation, as seller, the Company, as initial servicer, and certain of the Company’s affiliates as sub-servicers and (ii) the Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of April 30, 2003 among CNX Funding

 Section 2. Security for Obligations. (a) This Agreement secures, in the case of each Grantor, all obligations of such Grantor now or hereafter
existing under any of the Loan Documents to which it is a party under each Senior Credit Facility and the Hedge Agreements, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, reimbursement obligations, interest, fees,
premiums, penalties, indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (all such obligations being the “Secured Obligations”). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Senior Credit Facilities to the
contrary, the aggregate principal amount of all Secured Obligations to which may be applied proceeds of any Collateral that constitutes “Principal Property” (as such term is defined in that certain Issuing and Paying Agency
Agreement dated as of December 31, 1991 among Consolidation Coal Company, as the issuer, Consol Inc. and the Borrower, each as guarantors, and Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York as the paying agent, as in effect on the date hereof, the
“Issuing and Paying Agency  
  

 Consol Security Agreement 









 8 
  

 
Agreement”) of the Grantors from time to time and proceeds of “Collateral” as defined in the Mortgages shall be limited to 10% of the
“Consolidated Net Tangible Assets” (as such term is defined in the Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement) on the balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of any date. 
  
 Section 3. Grantors Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in such Grantor’s Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this
Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral and (c)
neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or any other Senior Credit Facility Loan Document, nor shall the
Collateral Agent or any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. 
  
 Section 4. Delivery and Control of Security Collateral. (a) All
certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral (other than third party notes representing less than $30,000 individually and $1,000,000 in the aggregate) shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral
Agent pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. 

  
 (b) With respect to any Security Collateral in which any
Grantor has any right, title or interest and that constitutes an uncertificated security, such Grantor will cause the issuer thereof either (i) to note or register the security interest created hereby in the appropriate company records or (ii) to
agree in an authenticated record with such Grantor and the Collateral Agent that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default such issuer will comply with instructions with respect to such security originated by the
Collateral Agent without further consent of such Grantor, such authenticated record to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and such Grantor. With respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has any
right, title or interest and that is not an uncertificated security, upon the request of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor will notify each such issuer of Pledged Equity that such Pledged Equity is subject to the security interest granted
hereunder. 
  
 (c) With respect to any Security Collateral in
which any Grantor has any right, title or interest and that constitutes a security entitlement in which the Collateral Agent is not the entitlement holder, such Grantor will use its commercial good faith efforts to cause the securities intermediary
with respect to such security entitlement to either (i) to identify in its records the Collateral Agent as the entitlement holder of such security entitlement against such securities intermediary or (ii) agree in an authenticated record with such

trademark, or copyright, unless such Grantor shall have previously determined that such use or the pursuit or maintenance of such Intellectual Property Collateral is no longer useful or desirable in the conduct of such Grantor’s business and
that the loss thereof would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, in which case, such Grantor will give prompt notice of any such abandonment to the Collateral Agent. 
  
 (b) Each Grantor agrees promptly to notify the Collateral Agent if such
Grantor becomes aware (i) that any item of Intellectual Property Collateral may have become abandoned, placed in the public domain, invalid or unenforceable, or of any adverse determination or development regarding such Grantor’s ownership of
any of the Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to register the same or to keep and maintain and enforce the same, or (ii) of any adverse determination or the institution of any proceeding (including, without limitation, the institution of
any proceeding in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or any court) regarding any item of the Intellectual Property Collateral. 
  
 (c) In the event that any Grantor becomes aware that any item of material Intellectual Property Collateral is being infringed or misappropriated by a
third party, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent and shall take such actions, at its expense, as such Grantor or the Collateral Agent deems reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property
Collateral, including, without limitation, suing for infringement or misappropriation and for an injunction against such infringement or misappropriation. 
  
 (d) Each Grantor shall use proper statutory notice in connection with its use of each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral. No Grantor shall do or
permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of its Intellectual Property Collateral may lapse or become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public domain. 
  
 (e) Each Grantor shall take all steps which it or the Collateral Agent deems reasonable and appropriate under the
circumstances to preserve and protect each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, maintaining the quality of any and all products or services used or provided in connection with any of the Trademarks, consistent
with the quality of the products and services as of the date hereof, and taking all steps necessary to ensure that all licensed users of any of the Trademarks use such consistent standards of quality. 
  
 (f) With respect to its Intellectual Property Collateral, each Grantor agrees
to execute or otherwise authenticate an agreement, in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit E 
  

 Consol Security Agreement

hereto (an “Intellectual Property Security Agreement”), for recording the security interest granted hereunder to the Collateral Agent in
such Intellectual Property Collateral with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other governmental authorities necessary to perfect the security interest hereunder in such Intellectual Property Collateral.

  
 (g) Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership
interest in any item of the type set forth in Section 1(g) that is not on the date hereof a part of the Intellectual Property Collateral (the “After-Acquired Intellectual Property”), (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall
automatically apply thereto, and (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property and, in the case of trademarks, the goodwill symbolized thereby, shall automatically become part of the Intellectual Property Collateral subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement with respect thereto. At the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, each Grantor shall give written notice to the Collateral Agent identifying the After-Acquired Intellectual Property acquired during such fiscal
quarter and such Grantor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent with such written notice, or otherwise authenticate, an IP Security Agreement Supplement covering such After-Acquired Intellectual Property for recording such IP Security
Agreement Supplement with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other governmental authorities necessary to perfect the security interest hereunder in such After-Acquired Intellectual Property.

Default shall have occurred and be continuing under any Senior Credit Facility: 
  
 (i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Security Collateral of
such Grantor or any part thereof for any purpose; provided however, that such Grantor will not exercise or refrain from exercising any such right if such action would have a material adverse effect on the value of the Security
Collateral or any part thereof. 
  
 (ii) Each
Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest and other distributions paid in respect of the Security Collateral of such Grantor if and to the extent that the payment thereof is not otherwise prohibited by the terms
of the Senior Credit Facilities; provided, however, that any and all dividends, interest and other distributions paid or payable other than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise
distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Security Collateral, shall be, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent to hold as, Security Collateral and shall, if received by such Grantor, be received in trust for the benefit
of the Collateral Agent, be segregated from the other property or funds of such Grantor and be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent as Security Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement). 
  
 (iii) The Collateral Agent will execute and deliver (or
cause to be executed and delivered) to each Grantor all such proxies and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request and provide for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and other rights that it is entitled to
exercise pursuant to paragraph (i) above and to receive the dividends or interest payments that it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to paragraph (ii) above. 
  

 Consol Security Agreement 









 21 
  

 (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under any Senior Credit
Facility: 
  
 (i) All rights of each Grantor (x)
to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 13(a)(i) shall, upon notice to such Grantor by the Collateral Agent, cease and (y) to receive the
dividends, interest and other distributions that it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 13(a)(ii) shall automatically cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall
thereupon have the sole right to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as Security Collateral such dividends, interest and other distributions. 
  
 (ii) All dividends, interest and other distributions that
are received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 13(b) shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over
to the Collateral Agent as Security Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement). 
  
 (iii) The Collateral Agent shall be authorized to send to each Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary as defined in and under
any Security Control Agreement a Notice of Exclusive Control as defined in and under such Security Control Agreement. 
  
 Section 14. Transfers and Other Liens; Additional Shares. (a) Each Grantor agrees that it will not (i) sell, assign or otherwise dispose of, or
grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral, other than sales, assignments and other dispositions of Collateral, and options relating to Collateral, permitted under the terms of the Senior Credit Facilities, or (ii) create or suffer to
exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral of such Grantor except for the pledge, assignment and security interest created under this Agreement and Liens permitted under the Senior Credit Facilities. 
  
 (b) Each Grantor agrees that it will (i) cause each issuer of the Pledged
Equity pledged by such Grantor not to issue any stock or other equity interests or other securities in addition to or in substitution for the Pledged Equity issued by such issuer, except to such Grantor, and (ii) pledge hereunder, immediately upon
its acquisition (directly or indirectly) thereof, any and all additional shares of stock or other equity interests or other securities of each issuer of the Pledged Equity.

 Section 15. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Upon and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in the
Collateral Agent’s discretion acting in good faith, to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

  
 (a) to obtain and adjust insurance required
to be paid to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10, 
  
 (b) to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral, 
  
 (c) to receive, indorse and collect any drafts or other
instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a) or (b) above, and 
  
 (d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the
collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral. 
  
 Section 16. Collateral Agent May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent may, as the
Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect the security interest granted hereunder in the Collateral or to protect the value thereof, but without any obligation to do so and without notice, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement,
and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor under Section 19. 
  
 Section 17. The Collateral Agent’s Duties. (a) The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Secured
Parties’ interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the
Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party has or is
deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in
the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property. 
  
 (b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent may from time to time, when the
Collateral Agent deems it to be necessary, appoint one or more subagents (each, a “Subagent”) for the Collateral Agent hereunder with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. In the event that the Collateral Agent so appoints
any Subagent with respect to any Collateral, (i) the assignment and pledge of such Collateral and the security 
  

 Consol Security Agreement 









 23 
  

 
interest granted in such Collateral by each Grantor hereunder shall be deemed for purposes of this Security Agreement to have been made to such Subagent, in
addition to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Secured Obligations of such Grantor, (ii) such Subagent shall automatically be vested, in addition to the Collateral Agent, with all rights,
powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder with respect to such Collateral, and (iii) the term “Collateral Agent,” when used herein in relation to any rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of
the Collateral Agent with respect to such Collateral, shall include such Subagent; provided, however, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any such Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly
authorized in writing by the Collateral Agent. 
  
 Section 18.
Remedies. If any Event of Default under any Senior Credit Facility shall have occurred and be continuing: 
  
 (a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, subject to the terms and provisions of the Senior Credit Facilities
and this Agreement and all requirements of applicable law, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a Secured Party upon default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC
applies to the affected Collateral) and also may: (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the
Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place and time to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part
thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as may be commercially reasonable; (iii) occupy any premises
owned or leased by any of the Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of
such occupation; and (iv) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (A) in accordance with Section 11(b), any
and all rights of such Grantor to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provision of, the Receivables, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, (B) withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal, of all
funds with respect to the Account Collateral and (C) exercise all other rights and remedies with respect to the Receivables and the Related Contracts in accordance with Section 11(b) and the other Collateral, including, without limitation, those set
forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is
to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to
time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. 
  

 Consol Security Agreement 









 24 
  

 (b) Any cash held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent and all cash proceeds received
by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent, be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for, and/or
then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 19) in whole or in part by the Collateral Agent for its benefit and for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties against, all
or any part of the Secured Obligations, as set forth in Section 3 of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
  
 (c) All payments received by any Grantor in respect of the Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent,
shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement). 
  
 (d) The Collateral Agent may, without notice to any Grantor except as required by law and at any time or
from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations against any funds held with respect to the Account Collateral or in any other deposit account. 
  
 (e) In the event of any sale or other disposition of any of
the Intellectual Property Collateral of any Grantor, the goodwill of the business connected with and symbolized by any Trademarks subject to such sale or other disposition shall be included therein, and such Grantor shall supply to the Collateral
Agent or its designee such Grantor’s know-how and expertise, and documents and things relating to any Intellectual Property Collateral subject to such sale or other disposition, and such Grantor’s customer lists and other records and
documents relating to such Intellectual Property Collateral and to the manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of products and services of such Grantor. 
  
 (f) If the Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Security
Collateral of any Grantor pursuant to this Section 18, each Grantor agrees that, upon request of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor will, at its own expense do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may reasonably be necessary to make such
sale of such Security Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law. 
  
 (g) The Collateral Agent is authorized, in connection with any sale of the Security Collateral pursuant to this Section 18, to deliver or
otherwise disclose to any prospective purchaser of the Security Collateral any information in its possession relating to such Security Collateral. 
  
 Section 19. Indemnity and Expenses. (a) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless the Collateral Agent, each Secured
Party and each of their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses,
liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified 
  

 Consol Security Agreement 









 25 
  

 
Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or resulting from this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement),
except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense results from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
  
 (b) Each Grantor will upon demand pay to the Collateral Agent the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including, without limitation, the reasonable
fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, that the Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from or
other realization upon, any of the Collateral of such Grantor, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties hereunder or (iv) the failure by such Grantor to perform or observe any of the
provisions hereof. 
  
 Section 20. Amendments; Waivers;
Additional Grantors; Etc. (a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Collateral
Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising
any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. 
  
 (b) Upon the execution and delivery, or authentication, by any Person of a
security agreement supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Security Agreement Supplement”), (i) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Grantor” and shall be and become a
Grantor hereunder, and each reference in this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents to “Grantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Grantor, and each reference in this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents
to “Collateral” shall also mean and be a reference to the Collateral of such Additional Grantor, and (ii) the supplemental schedules I-X attached to each Security Agreement Supplement shall be incorporated into and become a part of and
supplement Schedules I-X, respectively, hereto, and the Collateral Agent may attach such supplemental schedules to such Schedules; and each reference to such Schedules shall mean and be a reference to such Schedules as supplemented pursuant to each
Security Agreement Supplement. 
  
 Section 21. Notices;
Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be either (i) in writing (including telecopier communication) and mailed, telecopied, or otherwise delivered or (ii) by electronic mail (if electronic mail addresses are
designated as provided below) confirmed immediately in writing, in the case of the Borrower or the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at its address specified in the Senior Credit Facilities and, in the case of each Grantor other than the Borrower,
addressed to it at its address set forth opposite such Grantor’s name on the signature pages hereto or on the signature page to the Security Agreement Supplement pursuant to which it became a party hereto; or, as to any party, at such other

 Consol Security Agreement 









 26

Supplement or Schedule hereto shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart thereof.

remain in full force and effect until the latest of (i) payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations, (ii) the termination or expiration of each of the Senior Credit Facilities and (iii) the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit
and all Hedge Agreements, (b) be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors,
transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document (including in connection with any
Senior Credit Facility, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes, if any, held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in
respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case as provided therein. 
  
 Section 23. Release; Termination. (a) Upon any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any item of Collateral of any Grantor in accordance
with the terms of the Loan Documents (other than sales of Inventory in the ordinary course of business), the Collateral Agent will, at such Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall
reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted hereby; provided, however, that (i) at the time of such request and such release no Event of Default under the Senior
Credit Facilities shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) such Grantor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent, at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release describing the item of
Collateral and the terms of the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition in reasonable detail, including, without limitation, the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a form of release for execution by the
Collateral Agent and a certificate of such Grantor to the effect that the transaction is in compliance with the Senior Credit Facilities Loan Documents and as to such other matters as the Collateral Agent may request and (iii) the proceeds of any
such sale, lease, transfer or other disposition required to be applied, or any payment to be made in connection therewith, in accordance with Section 2.06 of the Senior Credit Facilities shall, to the extent so required, be paid or made to, or in

Senior Credit Facilities and (iii) the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and all Hedge Agreements, the pledge and security interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable
Grantor. Upon any such termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the applicable Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. 
  

 Consol Security Agreement 









 27 
  

 Section 24. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier shall
be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
  
 Section 25. The Mortgages. In the event that any of the Collateral hereunder is also subject to a valid and enforceable Lien under the terms of any Mortgage and the terms of such Mortgage are inconsistent with
the terms of this Agreement, then with respect to such Collateral, the terms of such Mortgage shall be controlling in the case of fixtures and real estate leases, letting and licenses of, and contracts and agreements relating to the lease of, real
property, and the terms of this Agreement shall be controlling in the case of all other Collateral.

 ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT 
 (Deposit Account/Securities Account) 
  
 ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of September 29, 2003, among the parties listed in Schedule I hereto, (the “Grantors”), Citicorp North America,
Inc., as Collateral Agent (the “Secured Party”), and Citibank, N.A., a national banking association, as securities intermediary and depository bank (the “Account Holder”). 
  
 PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS: 
  
 (1) The Grantors have granted the Secured Party a security interest (the
“Security Interest”) in the following accounts listed in Schedule II hereto maintained by the Account Holder for the Grantor (each, an “Account” and collectively, the
“Accounts”): 
  
 (2) Terms defined in
Article 8 or 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York (“N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code”) are used in this Agreement as such terms are defined in such Article 8 or 9. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements
contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1. The Accounts. The Grantor and Account Holder represent and warrant to, and agrees with, the Secured Party that: 
  
 (a) The Account Holder maintains each Account for the Grantor, and all property (including, without limitation, all funds and financial
assets) held by the Account Holder for the account of the Grantor are, and will continue to be, credited to an Account in accordance with instructions given by the Grantor (unless otherwise provided herein). 
  
 (b) To the extent that funds are credited to any Account,
such Account is a deposit account; and to the extent that financial assets are credited to any Account, such Account is a securities account. The Account Holder is (i) the bank with which each Account that is a deposit account is maintained and (ii)
the securities intermediary with respect to financial assets held in any Account that is a securities account. The Grantor is (x) the Account Holder’s customer with respect to the Accounts and (y) the entitlement holder with respect to
financial assets credited from time to time to any Account. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding any other agreement to the contrary, the Account Holder’s jurisdiction with respect to each Account for purposes of the N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code is, and will continue to be for so long as
the Security Interest shall be in effect, the State of New York. 
  

 B-1 








 (d) The Grantor and Account Holder do not know of any claim to or interest in any Account
or any property (including, without limitation, funds and financial assets) credited to any Account, except for claims and interests of the parties referred to in this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 2. Control by Secured Party. The Account Holder will comply with (i) all instructions directing disposition
of the funds in any and all of the Accounts, (ii) all notifications and entitlement orders that the Account Holder receives directing it to transfer or redeem any financial asset in any and all of the Accounts, and (iii) all other directions
concerning any and all of the Accounts, including, without limitation, directions to distribute to the Secured Party proceeds of any such transfer or redemption or interest or dividends on property in any and all of the Accounts (any such
instruction, notification or direction referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above being an “Account Direction”), in each case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above originated by the Secured Party without further consent by
the Grantor or any other Person. 
  
 SECTION 3. Grantor’s
Rights in Accounts. 
  
 (a) Until the Account Holder receives
a notice from the Secured Party certifying that an Event of Default (as defined in the loan documents between the Secured Party and the Grantor) has occurred and is continuing and stating that the Secured Party will exercise exclusive control over
any Account (a “Notice of Exclusive Control” with respect to such Account), the Account Holder will comply with Account Directions and other directions concerning each Account originated by the Grantor without further consent
by the Secured Party. 
  
 (b) If the Account Holder receives from
the Secured Party a Notice of Exclusive Control with respect to any Account, the Account Holder will, until a Notice of Release (as defined below) is received by the Account Holder, comply only with Account Directions originated by the Secured Party
and will cease: 
  
 (i) complying with Account
Directions or other directions concerning such Account originated by the Grantor and 
  
 (ii) distributing to the Grantor interest and dividends on property (including, without limitation, funds and financial assets) in such
Account. 
  
 (c) In the event a Notice of Exclusive Control is
delivered by the Secured Party to the Account Holder, and subsequently the Event of Default triggering such notice is cured, the Secured Party agrees to send a notice to the Account Holder directing the Account Holder to comply with Account
Directions and other directions concerning each Account originated by the Grantor (a “Notice of Release”) and, at such time, the Account Holder will comply with Account Directions as contemplated by clause (a). 
  
 SECTION 4. Priority of Secured Party’s Security Interest. (a) The
Account Holder (i) subordinates to the Security Interest and in favor of the Secured Party any security interest, lien, or right of recoupment or setoff that it may have, now or in the future, against any Account or property (including, without
limitation, any funds and financial assets) credited to any Account, and (ii) agrees that it will not exercise any right in respect of any such security interest or lien or any such right of recoupment or setoff until the Security Interest is
terminated, 
  

 B-2 








 
except that the Account Holder (A) will retain its prior security interest and lien on property credited to any Account, (B) may exercise any right in
respect of such security interest or lien, and (C) may exercise any right of recoupment or setoff against any Account, in the case of clauses (A), (B) and (C) above, to secure or to satisfy, and only to secure or to satisfy, payment (x) for such
property, (y) for its customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of such Account, and (z) if such Account is a deposit account, for the face amount of any items that have been credited to such Account but are subsequently
returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds. 
  
 (b) The Account Holder will not enter into any other agreement with any Person relating to Account Directions or other directions with respect to any Account. 
  
 SECTION 5. Statements, Confirmations, and Notices of Adverse Claims. (a) The Account Holder will send copies of all
statements and confirmations for each Account simultaneously to the Secured Party and the Grantor. 
  
 (b) When the Account Holder knows of any claim or interest in any Account or any property (including, without limitation, funds and financial assets)
credited to any Account other than the claims and interests of the parties referred to in this Agreement, the Account Holder will promptly notify the Secured Party and the Grantor of such claim or interest. 
  
 SECTION 6. The Account Holder’s Responsibility. (a) Except for
permitting a withdrawal, delivery, or payment in violation of Section 3, the Account Holder will not be liable to the Secured Party for complying with Account Directions or other directions concerning any Account from the Grantor that are received
by the Account Holder before the Account Holder receives and has a reasonable opportunity to act on a Notice of Exclusive Control. 
  
 (b) The Account Holder will not be liable to the Grantor or the Secured Party for complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control or with an Account
Direction or other direction concerning any Account originated by the Secured Party, even if the Grantor notifies the Account Holder that the Secured Party is not legally entitled to issue the Notice of Exclusive Control or Account Direction or such
other direction unless the Account Holder takes the action after it is served with an injunction, restraining order, or other legal process enjoining it from doing so, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, and had a reasonable opportunity to
act on the injunction, restraining order or other legal process. 
  
 (c) This Agreement does not create any obligation of the Account Holder except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and, in the case of any Account that is a securities account, in Part 5 of Article 8 of the N.Y. Uniform
Commercial Code and, in the case of any Account that is a deposit account, in Article 4 of the N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code. In particular, the Account Holder need not investigate whether the Secured Party is entitled under the Secured Party’s
agreements with the Grantor to give an Account Direction or other direction concerning any Account or a Notice of Exclusive Control. The Account Holder may rely on notices and communications it believes given by the appropriate party. 
  
 SECTION 7. Indemnity. The Grantor will indemnify the Account Holder,
its officers, directors, employees and agents against claims, liabilities and expenses arising out of 
  

 B-3 








 
this Agreement (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), except to the extent the claims, liabilities or expenses
are caused by the Account Holder’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment. 
  
 SECTION 8. Termination; Survival. (a) The Secured Party may terminate this Agreement by notice to the Account Holder
and the Grantor. If the Secured Party notifies the Account Holder that the Security Interest has terminated, this Agreement will immediately terminate. 
  
 (b) The Account Holder may terminate this Agreement on 60 days’ prior notice to the Secured Party and the Grantor, provided that before such
termination the Account Holder and the Grantor shall make arrangements to transfer the property (including, without limitation, all funds and financial assets) credited to each Account to another Account Holder that shall have executed, together
with the Grantor, a control agreement in favor of the Secured Party in respect of such property in substantially the form of this Agreement or otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Secured Party. 
  
 (c) Sections 6 and 7 will survive termination of this Agreement. 

 
 SECTION 9. Governing Law. This Agreement and each Account will be
governed by the law of the State of New York. The Account Holder and the Grantor may not change the law governing any Account without the Secured Party’s express prior written agreement. 
  
 SECTION 10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement,
and supersedes any prior agreements, and contemporaneous oral agreements, of the parties concerning its subject matter. 
  
 SECTION 11. Amendments. No amendment of, or waiver of a right under, this Agreement will be binding unless it is in writing and signed by the party
to be charged.

Grantor, the Secured Party and the Account Holder and their respective successors and assigns.

counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart

 PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS: 
  
 (1) The Grantor has granted the Secured Party a security interest (the “Security Interest”) in account no.
                             maintained by the Commodity Intermediary for the Grantor (the
“Account”). 
  
 (2) Terms defined in
Article 8 or 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York (“N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code”) are used in this Agreement as such terms are defined in such Article 8 or 9. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements
contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1. The Account. The Grantor and the Commodity Intermediary represent and warrant to, and agree with, the Grantor and the Secured Party that:

the Commodity Intermediary for the account of the Grantor is, and will continue to be, carried in the Account. 
  
 (b) The Account is a commodity account. The Commodity Intermediary is the commodity intermediary with respect to the commodity contracts
carried from time to time in the Account. The Grantor is the commodity customer with respect to the commodity contracts carried from time to time in the Account. 
  
 (c) The State of New York is, and will continue to be, the Commodity Intermediary’s jurisdiction of
organization for purposes of Section 9-305(b) of the UCC so long as the Security Interest shall remain in effect. 
  
 (d) Exhibit A attached hereto is a statement of the commodity contracts carried in the Account on the date hereof. 
  
 (e) The Grantor and Commodity Intermediary do not know of
any claim to or interest in the Account or any commodity contract carried in the Account, except for claims and interests of the parties referred to in this Agreement. 
  

 D-1 








 SECTION 2. Control by Secured Party. The Commodity Intermediary will comply with all notifications
it receives directing it to apply any value distributed on account of any commodity contract or contracts carried in the Account (each, an “Entitlement Order”) or other directions concerning the Account originated by the
Secured Party without further consent by the Grantor or any other person. 
  
 SECTION 3. Grantor’s Rights in Account. 
  
 (a) Until the Commodity Intermediary receives a notice from the Secured Party certifying that an Event of Default (as defined in the loan documents between the Secured Party and the Grantor) has occurred and is
continuing and stating that the Secured Party will exercise exclusive control over any Account (a “Notice of Exclusive Control” with respect to such Account), the Commodity Intermediary will comply with Entitlement Orders
originated by the Grantor without further consent by the Secured Party. 
  
 (b) If the Commodity Intermediary receives from the Secured Party a Notice of Exclusive Control, the Commodity Intermediary, until it has received a Notice of Release, will cease: 
  
 (i) complying with Entitlement Orders or other directions
concerning the Account originated by the Grantor and 
  
 (ii) distributing to the Grantor any value distributed on account of any commodity contract carried in the Account. 
  
 (c) In the event a Notice of Exclusive Control is delivered by the Secured Party to the Commodity Intermediary, and subsequently the Event of Default
triggering such notice is cured, the Secured Party agrees to send a notice to the Commodity Intermediary directing the Commodity Intermediary to comply with Entitlement Orders and other directions concerning each Account originated by the Grantor (a
“Notice of Release”) and, at such time, the Account Holder will comply with Entitlement Orders as contemplated by clause (a). 
  
 SECTION 4. Priority of Secured Party’s Security Interest. (a) The Commodity Intermediary subordinates in favor of the Secured Party any
security interest, lien, or right of setoff it may have, now or in the future, against the Account or commodity contracts carried in the Account, except that the Commodity Intermediary will retain its prior lien on commodity contracts in the Account
to secure payment for commodity contracts purchased for the Account and normal commissions and fees for the Account. 
  
 (b) The Commodity Intermediary will not agree with any third party that the Commodity Intermediary will comply with Entitlement Orders originated by the
third party. 
  
 SECTION 5. Statements, Confirmations, and
Notices of Adverse Claims. (a) The Commodity Intermediary will send copies of all statements and confirmations for the Account simultaneously to the Grantor and the Secured Party. 
  
 (b) When the Commodity Intermediary knows of any claim or interest in the Account or any commodity contracts carried in the
Account other than the claims and interests of the parties referred to in this Agreement, the Commodity Intermediary will promptly notify the Secured Party and the Grantor of such claim or interest. 
  

 D-2 








 SECTION 6. The Commodity Intermediary’s Responsibility. (a) The Commodity Intermediary will
not be liable to the Secured Party for complying with Entitlement Orders or other directions concerning the Account from the Grantor that are received by the Commodity Intermediary before the Commodity Intermediary receives and has a reasonable
opportunity to act on a Notice of Exclusive Control. 
  
 (b) The
Commodity Intermediary will not be liable to the Grantor for complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control or with an Entitlement Order or other direction concerning the Account originated by the Secured Party, even if the Grantor notifies the
Commodity Intermediary that the Secured Party is not legally entitled to issue the Notice of Exclusive Control or Entitlement Order or such other direction unless the Commodity Intermediary takes the action after it is served with an injunction,
restraining order, or other legal process enjoining it from doing so, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, and had a reasonable opportunity to act on the injunction, restraining order or other legal process. 
  
 (c) This Agreement does not create any obligation of the Commodity
Intermediary except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement. In particular, the Commodity Intermediary need not investigate whether the Secured Party is entitled under the Secured Party’s agreements with the Grantor to give an
Entitlement Order or other direction concerning the Account or a Notice of Exclusive Control. The Commodity Intermediary may rely on notices and communications it believes given by the appropriate party. 
  
 SECTION 7. Indemnity. The Grantor will indemnify the Commodity
Intermediary, its officers, directors, employees and agents against claims, liabilities and expenses arising out of this Agreement (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), except to the extent the claims,
liabilities or expenses are caused by the Commodity Intermediary’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment. 
  
 SECTION 8. Termination; Survival. (a) The Secured Party may terminate
this Agreement by notice to the Commodity Intermediary and the Grantor. If the Secured Party notifies the Commodity Intermediary that the Security Interest has terminated, this Agreement will immediately terminate. 
  
 (b) The Commodity Intermediary may terminate this Agreement on 60 days’
prior notice to the Secured Party and the Grantor, provided that before such termination the Commodity Intermediary and the Grantor shall make arrangements to transfer the commodity contracts carried in the Account to another commodity
intermediary that shall have executed, together with the Grantor, a control agreement in favor of the Secured Party in respect of such commodity contracts in substantially the form of this Agreement or otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to
the Secured Party. 
  
 (c) Sections 6 and 7 will survive
termination of this Agreement.

of New York. The Commodity Intermediary and the Grantor may not change the law governing the Account without the Secured Party’s express prior written agreement. 
  
 SECTION 10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement, and supersedes any prior agreements, and
contemporaneous oral agreements, of the parties concerning its subject matter. 
  
 SECTION 11. Amendments. No amendment of, or waiver of a right under, this Agreement will be binding unless it is in writing and signed by the party to be charged. 
  
 SECTION 12. Commodity Contracts. The Commodity Intermediary agrees
with the Secured Party and the Grantor that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all property carried from time to time in the Account will be treated as commodity contracts under Article 8 of the N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code.

a party under this Agreement will be in writing (except that Entitlement Orders may be given orally), will be sent to the party’s address set forth under its name below or to such other address as the party may notify the other parties and will

This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Grantor, the Secured Party and the Commodity Intermediary, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Grantor, the Secured Party and the
Commodity Intermediary and their respective successors and assigns. 
  
 SECTION 15. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of

any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier, telegram, telex or e-mail or other electronic transmission) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. In connection
with any request of any Secured Party, the Collateral Agent shall be fully protected in relying on a certificate of such Secured Party, that the Collateral Agent reasonably believes is authentic and that sets forth and certifies the principal amount
of the Secured Obligations held by such Secured Party as of the date of such certificate, which certificate shall state that the individual signing such certificate is an authorized representative of such Secured Party and is authorized to direct
the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and shall state specifically the Intercreditor Security Document and provision thereof pursuant to which the Collateral Agent is being directed to act. 
  
 The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take
any action hereunder or under any other Intercreditor Security Document (i) if such action would, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, be contrary to law or the terms of the Intercreditor Security Documents, (ii) if such action is not
specifically provided for herein or in any other Intercreditor Security Document, and it shall not have received any such advice or concurrence of the Secured Parties as it deems appropriate, or (iii) if, in connection with the taking of any such
action that would constitute an exercise of remedies under any Intercreditor Security Document, it shall not first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Secured Parties against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred

Intercreditor Security Document or is otherwise appropriate. The Collateral Agent shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon the confirmation of the Secured Parties in this respect, and such confirmation shall be binding upon

assured to it. In the event that the Collateral Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of any Default, the Collateral Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect
to such Default as requested by the Secured Parties, and as otherwise provided herein.

 ARTICLE 3 
 WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS 
  
 Grantor warrants, represents and covenants to Beneficiary as follows: 
  
 Section 3.1 Title to Mortgaged Property and Lien of this Instrument. Grantor owns the Mortgaged Property free and clear of any liens, claims or interests, except the Permitted Liens. This Deed of
Trust creates valid, enforceable first priority liens and security interests against the Mortgaged Property. 
  
 Section 3.2 First Lien Status. Grantor shall preserve and protect the first lien and security interest status of this Deed of Trust
and the other Loan Documents. If any lien or security interest other than a Permitted Lien is asserted against the Mortgaged Property, Grantor shall promptly, and at its expense, (a) give Beneficiary a detailed written notice of such lien or
security interest (including origin, amount and other terms), and (b) pay the underlying claim in full or take such other action so as to cause it to be released or contest the same in compliance with the requirements of the Credit Agreements
(including the requirement of providing a bond or other security satisfactory to Beneficiary). 
  
 Section 3.3 Payment and Performance. Grantor shall pay the Indebtedness when due under the Credit Agreements and the other Loan Documents and shall perform the Obligations in full when they are required
to be performed. 
  
 Section 3.4 Replacement of Fixtures and
Personalty. Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreements, Grantor shall not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, permit any of the Fixtures or Personalty owned or leased by Grantor to be removed at any time from the Land or
Improvements, unless the removed item is removed temporarily for maintenance and repair or is permitted to be removed by the Loan Documents. 
  
 Section 3.5 Inspection. Grantor shall permit Beneficiary and the other Secured Parties and their respective agents, representatives and
employees, upon reasonable prior notice to Grantor, to inspect the Mortgaged Property and all books and records of Grantor located thereon, and to conduct such environmental and engineering studies as Beneficiary or the other Secured Parties may
require, provided that (a) such inspections and studies shall not materially interfere with the use and operation of the Mortgaged Property; and (b) such right shall, with respect to Leased Land, be subject to the provisions of any applicable
Mortgaged Lease. 
  
 Section 3.6 Other Covenants.
All of the covenants of Grantor in the Loan Documents and the Collateral Agency Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and, together with covenants in this Article 3, shall be covenants running with the Land.

 (a) Insurance. Grantor shall maintain
or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to the Mortgaged Property against loss or damage of the

kinds customarily carried or maintained under similar circumstances by corporations of established reputation engaged in similar businesses. Each such policy
of insurance shall name Beneficiary as the loss payee (or, in the case of liability insurance, an additional insured) thereunder for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall provide for at least 30 days’ prior written notice of any
material modification or cancellation of such policy. In addition to the foregoing, if any portion of the Mortgaged Property is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards and in
which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (or any amendment or successor act thereto), then Grantor shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, with a financially sound and reputable insurer, flood
insurance in an amount sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to such Act.

and authorizes and directs the issuer of each of such insurance policies to make payment for all such losses directly to Beneficiary, instead of to Grantor and Beneficiary jointly. 
  
 ARTICLE 4 
 LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST PROVISIONS 
  
 Section 4.1 Representations; Warranties; Covenants. Grantor hereby represents, warrants and covenants that: 
  
 (a) (1) Except as set forth in Exhibit B hereof, the Mortgaged Leases are unmodified and in full force and effect, (2) all rent and other charges
therein have been paid to the extent they are payable to the date hereof, (3) Grantor enjoys the quiet and peaceful possession of the Premises, (4) to the best of its knowledge, Grantor is not in default under any of the terms thereof and there are
no circumstances which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of default thereunder, (5) to the best of Grantor’s knowledge, the lessor thereunder is not in default under any of the terms or
provisions thereof on the part of the lessor to be observed or performed; 
  
 (b) Grantor shall promptly pay, when due and payable, the rent and other charges payable pursuant to any Mortgaged Lease, and will timely perform and observe all of the other terms, covenants and conditions required
to be performed and observed by Grantor as lessee under any Mortgaged Lease; 
  
 (c) Grantor shall notify Beneficiary in writing of any default by Grantor in the performance or observance of any terms, covenants or conditions on the part of Grantor to be performed or observed under any Mortgaged
Lease within three (3) days after Grantor obtains knowledge of such default; 
  
 (d) Grantor shall, immediately upon receipt thereof, deliver a copy of each notice given to Grantor by the lessor pursuant to any Mortgaged Lease and promptly notify Beneficiary in writing of any default by the lessor
in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions on the part of the lessor to be performed or observed thereunder; 
  

 5 








 (e) Unless required under the terms of any Mortgaged Lease, Grantor shall not, without the prior written
consent of Beneficiary (which may be granted or withheld in Beneficiary’s sole and absolute discretion) terminate, modify or surrender any Mortgaged Lease, and any such attempted termination, modification or surrender without Beneficiary’s
written consent shall be void; and 
  
 (f) Grantor shall, within
twenty (20) days after written request from Beneficiary, use its best efforts to obtain from the lessor and deliver to Beneficiary a certificate setting forth the name of the tenant under any Mortgaged Lease and stating that such Mortgaged Lease is
in full force and effect, is unmodified or, if such Mortgaged Lease has been modified, the date of each modification (together with copies of each such modification), that no notice of termination thereof has been served on Grantor, stating that no
default or event which with notice or lapse of time (or both) would become a default is existing under such Mortgaged Lease (or if any such default or event is existing, specifying the nature of such default or event), stating the date to which rent
has been paid, and containing such other statements and representations as may be requested by Beneficiary. 
  
 Section 4.2 No Merger. So long as any of the Indebtedness or the Obligations remain unpaid or unperformed, the fee title to and the
leasehold estate in the Premises subject to any Mortgaged Lease shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct notwithstanding the union of such estates in the lessor or Grantor, or in a third party, by purchase or otherwise. If
Grantor acquires the fee title or any other estate, title or interest in the Premises, or any part thereof, the lien of this Deed of Trust shall attach to, cover and be a lien upon such acquired estate, title or interest and the same shall thereupon
be and become a part of the Mortgaged Property with the same force and effect as if specifically encumbered herein. Grantor agrees to execute all instruments and documents that Beneficiary or Trustee may reasonably require to ratify, confirm and
further evidence the lien of this Deed of Trust on the acquired estate, title or interest. Furthermore, Grantor hereby appoints Beneficiary as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver, following an Event of Default, all such
instruments and documents in the name and on behalf of Grantor. This power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable as long as any portion of the Indebtedness remains unpaid. 
  
 Section 4.3 Beneficiary as Lessee. If any Mortgaged Lease shall be terminated prior to the natural
expiration of its term due to default by Grantor or any tenant thereunder, and if, pursuant to the provisions of such Mortgaged Lease, Beneficiary or its designee shall acquire from the lessor a new lease of the Premises, Grantor shall have no
right, title or interest in or to such new lease or the leasehold estate created thereby, or renewal privileges therein contained. 
  
 Section 4.4 No Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Deed of Trust shall not constitute an
assignment of any Mortgaged Lease within the meaning of any provision thereof prohibiting its assignment and Beneficiary shall have no liability or obligation thereunder by reason of its acceptance of this Deed of Trust. Beneficiary shall be liable
for the obligations of the tenant arising out of any Mortgaged Lease for only that period of time for which Beneficiary is in possession of the Premises or has acquired, by foreclosure or otherwise, and is holding all of Grantor’s right, title
and interest therein.

 ARTICLE 5 
 DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE 
  
 Section 5.1 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Beneficiary may, at Beneficiary’s election and by or through Trustee or otherwise, exercise any or all of the following
rights, remedies and recourses: 
  
 (a) Acceleration.
Subject to any provisions of the Collateral Agency Agreement and the other Loan Documents providing for the automatic acceleration of the Indebtedness upon the occurrence of certain Events of Default, declare the Indebtedness to be immediately due
and payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever (each of which hereby is expressly waived by Grantor), whereupon the same shall become
immediately due and payable. 
  
 (b) Entry on Mortgaged
Property. Subject to the provisions of any applicable Mortgaged Lease and applicable law, enter the Mortgaged Property and take exclusive possession thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating thereto or located thereon. If Grantor
remains in possession of the Mortgaged Property following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and without Beneficiary’s prior written consent, subject to the provisions of any applicable Mortgaged Lease and
applicable law, Beneficiary may invoke any legal remedies to dispossess Grantor. 
  
 (c) Operation of Mortgaged Property. Subject to the provisions of any applicable Mortgaged Lease, hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Mortgaged Property upon such terms and conditions as
Beneficiary may deem reasonable under the circumstances (making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to time, as Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and other amounts
collected by Trustee or Beneficiary in connection therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7. 
  
 (d) Foreclosure and Sale. Institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Deed of Trust by judicial action or by power of sale, in which
case the Mortgaged Property may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels as Beneficiary may determine, subject to the provisions of any applicable Mortgaged Lease. With respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Grantor
agrees that ten (10) days’ prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. At any such sale by virtue of any judicial proceedings, power of sale, or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, the title to and right of possession
of any such property shall pass to the purchaser thereof, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor shall be completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity of redemption, and demand
whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Grantor, and against all other Persons claiming or to claim the property sold or any part thereof, by,
through or under Grantor. Beneficiary or any of the other Secured Parties may be a purchaser at such sale. If Beneficiary or such other Secured Party is the highest bidder, Beneficiary or such other Secured Party may credit the portion of the
purchase price that would be distributed to Beneficiary or such other Secured Party against the Indebtedness in lieu of paying cash. In the event this Deed of Trust is foreclosed by judicial action, appraisement of the Mortgaged Property is waived.

  
 (e) Receiver. Make application to a court of competent
jurisdiction for, and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to Grantor or regard to the adequacy of the Mortgaged Property for the repayment of the Indebtedness, the appointment of a receiver of the Mortgaged
Property, and Grantor irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Mortgaged Property upon
such terms as may be approved by the court, and in a manner consistent with the terms of any applicable Mortgaged Lease, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7. 
  

 7 








 (f) Other. Subject to the provisions of any applicable Mortgaged Lease, exercise all other rights,
remedies and recourses granted under the Collateral Agency Agreement or the other Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity. 
  
 Section 5.2 Separate Sales. To the extent not prohibited under the terms of any applicable Mortgaged Lease, the Mortgaged Property
may be sold in one or more parcels and in such manner and order as Trustee in its sole discretion may elect. The right of sale arising out of any Event of Default shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales. 
  
 Section 5.3 Remedies Cumulative, Concurrent and Nonexclusive.
Trustee, Beneficiary and the other Secured Parties shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted in Collateral Agency Agreement and the other Loan Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a) shall be
cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Grantor or others obligated under the Loan Documents, or against the Mortgaged Property, or against any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of
Trustee, Beneficiary or such other Secured Party, as the case may be, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any
other right, remedy or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No action by Trustee, Beneficiary or any other Secured Party in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses under the Collateral Agency Agreement or
the other Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be deemed to cure any Event of Default. 
  
 Section 5.4 Release of and Resort to Collateral. Beneficiary may release, regardless of consideration and without the necessity for
any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Mortgaged Property, any part of the Mortgaged Property without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the lien or security interest
created in or evidenced by this Deed of Trust or its status as a first and prior lien and security interest in and to the Mortgaged Property. For payment of the Indebtedness, Beneficiary may resort to any other security in such order and manner as
Beneficiary may elect. 
  
 Section 5.5 Waiver of
Redemption, Notice and Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Grantor by virtue of any present or future statute
of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting the Mortgaged Property from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices
of any Event of Default or of any election by Trustee or Beneficiary to exercise or the actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for under the Collateral Agency Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and (c) any right to a
marshalling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation. 
  
 Section 5.6 Discontinuance of Proceedings. If Trustee, Beneficiary or any other Secured Party shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Collateral Agency Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any reason, Trustee, Beneficiary or such other Secured Party, as the case may be, shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an event, Grantor, Trustee,
Beneficiary and the other Secured Parties shall be restored to their former positions with respect to the Indebtedness, the Obligations, the Collateral Agency Agreement, the Loan Documents, the Mortgaged Property and otherwise, and the rights,
remedies, recourses and powers of Trustee, Beneficiary and the other Secured 

  

 8 








 
Parties shall continue as if the right, remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or abandonment shall waive any Event of Default
which may then exist or the right of Trustee, Beneficiary or any other Secured Party thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the Collateral Agency Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents for such Event of Default. 

 
 Section 5.7 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of
any sale of, and the Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management, operation or other use of the Mortgaged Property, shall be applied by Beneficiary or Trustee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following order
unless otherwise required by applicable law: 
  
 (a) to the
payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the Mortgaged Property and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the same, including, without limitation (1) trustee’s and receiver’s fees and expenses,
including the repayment of the amounts evidenced by any receiver’s certificates, (2) court costs, (3) attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement and (5) the payment of all rent and other charges under
any applicable Mortgaged Lease; 
  
 (b) to the payment of the
Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations in such manner and order of preference as set forth in Section 3 of the Collateral Agency Agreement; and 
  
 (c) the balance, if any, to the Persons legally entitled thereto. 
  

Section 5.8 Occupancy After Foreclosure. Any sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof in accordance with Section
5.1(d) will divest all right, title and interest of Grantor in and to the property sold. Subject to applicable law and any applicable Mortgaged Lease, any purchaser at a foreclosure sale will receive immediate possession of the property
purchased. If Grantor retains possession of such property or any part thereof subsequent to such sale, Grantor will be considered a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, and will, if Grantor remains in possession after demand to remove, be subject
to eviction and removal, forcible or otherwise, with or without process of law. 
  
 Section 5.9 Additional Advances and Disbursements; Costs of Enforcement. 
  
 (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Beneficiary and each of the other Secured Parties shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to cure such Event of Default in the name and on behalf of Grantor. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by Beneficiary or any other Secured Party under this Section 5.9, or otherwise under this Deed of
Trust or any of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall bear interest from the date that such sum is advanced or expense incurred, to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the highest rate at which interest is then computed
on any portion of the Indebtedness, and all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Deed of Trust. 
  
 (b) Grantor shall pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of or incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this
Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Indebtedness or any claim under this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, and for the curing thereof, or for defending or asserting the rights and
claims of Beneficiary in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise. 
  
 Section 5.10 No Mortgagee in Possession. Neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under this Article 5, the assignment of the Rents and Leases under Article 6, the security interests under Article
7, nor any other remedies afforded to Beneficiary under the Collateral Agency Agreement, the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall cause Trustee, Beneficiary or any other 

  

 9 








 
Secured Party to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in possession of the Mortgaged Property, to obligate Trustee, Beneficiary or any other Secured
Party to lease the Mortgaged Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise. 
  
 ARTICLE 6 
 ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES 
  
 Section 6.1 Assignment. In furtherance of and in addition to the assignment made by Grantor in Section 2.1 of this Deed of
Trust, Grantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, sells, transfers and conveys to Trustee (for the benefit of Beneficiary) and to Beneficiary all of its right, title and interest in and to all Leases, whether now existing or hereafter
entered into, and all of its right, title and interest in and to all Rents. This assignment is an absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Grantor
shall have a revocable license from Trustee and Beneficiary to exercise all rights extended to the landlord under the Leases, including the right to receive and collect all Rents and to hold the Rents in trust for use in the payment and performance
of the Obligations and to otherwise use the same. The foregoing license is granted subject to the conditional limitation that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, whether or not legal proceedings have commenced, and without regard to waste, adequacy of security for the Obligations or solvency of Grantor, the license herein granted shall automatically expire and terminate, without notice to Grantor by
Trustee or Beneficiary (any such notice being hereby expressly waived by Grantor to the extent permitted by applicable law). 
  
 Section 6.2 Perfection Upon Recordation. Grantor acknowledges that Beneficiary and Trustee have taken all actions necessary to obtain, and
that upon recordation of this Deed of Trust Beneficiary and Trustee shall have, to the extent permitted under applicable law, a valid and fully perfected, first priority, present assignment of the Rents arising out of the Leases and all security for
such Leases. Grantor acknowledges and agrees that upon recordation of this Deed of Trust Trustee’s and Beneficiary’s interest in the Rents shall be deemed to be fully perfected, “choate” and enforced as to Grantor and to the
extent permitted under applicable law, all third parties, including, without limitation, any subsequently appointed trustee in any case under Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy
Code”), without the necessity of commencing a foreclosure action with respect to this Deed of Trust, making formal demand for the Rents, obtaining the appointment of a receiver or taking any other affirmative action.

  
 Section 6.3 Bankruptcy Provisions.
Without limitation of the absolute nature of the assignment of the Rents hereunder, Grantor, Trustee and Beneficiary agree that (a) this Deed of Trust shall constitute a “security agreement” for purposes of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy
Code, (b) the security interest created by this Deed of Trust extends to property of Grantor acquired before the commencement of a case in bankruptcy and to all amounts paid as Rents and (c) such security interest shall extend to all Rents acquired
by the estate after the commencement of any case in bankruptcy. 
  
 Section 6.4 No Merger of Estates. So long as part of the Indebtedness and the Obligations secured hereby remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Mortgaged Property shall not merge, but shall
remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates either in Grantor, Beneficiary, any tenant or any third party by purchase or otherwise.

 ARTICLE 7 
 SECURITY AGREEMENT

Mineral Interests, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards. To this end, Grantor grants to Beneficiary a first and prior security interest in the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases,
Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance, Condemnation Awards and all other Mortgaged Property which is “personal property” or “as extracted collateral” (as such terms are used in the UCC),
including coal and other minerals, to secure the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations, and agrees that Beneficiary shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC with respect to such property. Any
notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Beneficiary with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures, Mineral Interests, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards or other
Mortgaged Property which is “personal property” or “as extracted collateral” (as such terms are used in the UCC), including coal and other minerals, sent to Grantor at least ten (10) days prior to any action under the UCC shall
constitute reasonable notice to Grantor. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Deed of Trust and the terms of the Security Agreement with respect to the collateral covered both therein and herein, the Security Agreement shall
control and govern to the extent of any such inconsistency. 
  
 Section 7.2 Financing Statements. Grantor shall prepare and deliver to Beneficiary such financing statements, and shall execute and deliver to Beneficiary such other documents, instruments and further assurances, in
each case in form and substance satisfactory to Beneficiary, as Beneficiary may, from time to time, reasonably consider necessary to create, perfect and preserve Beneficiary’s security interest hereunder. Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes
Beneficiary to cause financing statements (and amendments thereto and continuations thereof) and any such documents, instruments and assurances to be recorded and filed, at such times and places as may be required or permitted by law to so create,
perfect and preserve such security interest. Grantor represents and warrants to Beneficiary that Grantor’s jurisdiction of organization is the State of
[                    ]. After the date of this Deed of Trust, Grantor shall not change its name, type of organization, organizational
identification number (if any), jurisdiction of organization or location (within the meaning of the UCC) without giving at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Beneficiary. 
  
 Section 7.3 Fixture Filing. This Deed of Trust shall
also constitute a “fixture filing” and an “as extracted” collateral filing for the purposes of the UCC against all of the Mortgaged Property which is or is to become fixtures or as extracted collateral. The information provided
in this Section 7.3 is provided so that this Deed of Trust shall comply with the requirements of the UCC for a mortgage instrument to be filed as a financing statement. Grantor is the “Debtor” and its name and mailing address are
set forth in the preamble of this Deed of Trust immediately preceding Article 1. Beneficiary is the “Secured Party” and its name and mailing address from which information concerning the security interest granted herein may be
obtained are also set forth in the preamble of this Deed of Trust immediately preceding Article 1. A statement describing the portion of the Mortgaged Property comprising the fixtures hereby secured is set forth in Section 1.1(f) of
this Deed of Trust. Grantor represents and warrants to Beneficiary that Grantor is the record owner of the applicable fee title or owner of the leasehold interest in the Mortgaged Property, the employer identification number of Grantor is
[                    ] and the organizational identification number of Grantor is
[                    ].

all liability and reasonable expenses which may be incurred by it in the performance of its duties, including those arising from joint, concurrent, or comparative negligence of Trustee; provided, however, that Grantor shall not be liable

comparative or contributory negligence. 
  
 Section 8.2
Retention of Money. All moneys received by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated in any manner from any other moneys (except to

 Section 8.3 Successor Trustees. If Trustee or any successor Trustee shall die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the
execution of this trust, or Beneficiary shall desire to appoint a substitute Trustee, Beneficiary shall have full power to appoint one or more substitute Trustees and, if preferred, several substitute Trustees in succession who shall succeed to all
the estates, rights, powers and duties of Trustee. Such appointment may be executed by any authorized agent of Beneficiary and as so executed, such appointment shall be conclusively presumed to be executed with authority, valid and sufficient,
without further proof of any action. 
  
 Section 8.4
Perfection of Appointment. Should any deed, conveyance or instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any successor Trustee to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to such successor Trustee such estates, rights, powers
and duties, then, upon request by such Trustee, all such deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged and delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or filed by Grantor.

 Re: [Mortgagor/Grantor]

execution and delivery of (i) that certain Three Year Credit Agreement dated as of November 2002 (the “Three Year Credit Agreement”), as amended by Amendment No. 2 to the Loan Documents dated as of September

Restated 364-Day Credit Agreement dated as of September     , 2003 (the “364-Day Credit Agreement”; the 364-Day Credit Agreement and the Three Year Credit Agreement are collectively referred to
herein as the “Credit Agreements”), among Consol, Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, “364-Day Administrative Agent”; the Three Year Administrative Agent and the 364-Day
Administrative Agent are collectively referred to herein as “Administrative Agents”), and the Lenders described therein, and (iii) the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] referenced below. This opinion is rendered at the request of
Consol pursuant to Section 5.01(k)(viii) of the Three Year Credit Agreement and Section [    ] of the 364-Day Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings

 Assumptions 
  
 In
rendering this opinion we have assumed, without having made any independent investigation of the facts, except with respect to matters of State and federal law on which we have opined below, the following: 
  
 (i) the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of
all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with originals of all documents submitted to us as copies; 
  
 (ii) to the extent that the obligations of Company may be dependent upon such matters, other than with respect to Company, that each party
to the agreements and contracts referred to herein is duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation; that each such other party has the requisite corporate or other organizational power and
authority to perform its obligations under such agreements and contracts, as applicable; and that such agreements and contracts have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and each of them constitutes the legally valid and binding
obligations of, such other parties, as applicable, enforceable against such other parties in accordance with their respective terms; 
  
 (iii) that a part or all of the loan proceeds to be advanced pursuant to the Credit Agreements will have been advanced on or before the
date hereof; 
  
 (iv) that all material factual
matters, including without limitation, representations and warranties, contained in the Subject Documents, are true and correct as set forth therein; 
  
 (v) that Company, at the time of recordation of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust], held an interest of record in the real property portions of
the Mortgaged Property owned by Company; and 
  
 (vi) that the Subject Documents will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State, notwithstanding the provisions of the Subject Documents to the contrary. 
  

 2 








 Opinions 
  
 On the basis of such examination, our reliance upon the assumptions contained herein and our consideration of those
questions of law we considered relevant, and subject to the limitations and qualifications in this opinion, we are of the opinion that: 
  
 1. Company is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State. 
  
 2. Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and
perform its obligations under the Subject Documents to which it is a party. 
  
 3. The Subject Documents to which Company is a party have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Company. 
  
 4. The [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Company, enforceable against Company in accordance with its terms.

  
 5. The execution and delivery of the Subject Documents, the
performance by Company of its obligations thereunder and the compliance with the terms and conditions thereof by Company are not in contravention of or in conflict with any law, rule or regulation of the State applicable to Company. 
  
 6. The execution and delivery by Company of the Subject Documents to which it
is a party and the performance of Company’s obligations thereunder do not require any governmental consents, approvals, authorizations, permits, registrations, declarations or filings or other action or any notices to, consents of, orders of or
filings with any governmental authority or regulatory body of the State (including those having jurisdiction over the enforcement of the environmental laws of the State), except for the recordation of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] in the recording
office described herein. 
  
 7. The [Mortgage/Deed of Trust]
(including the acknowledgement, attestation, seal and witness requirements) is in appropriate form for recordation in the State. 
  
 8. The [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] is in proper form sufficient to create a valid [mortgage/deed of trust lien] in favor of Collateral Agent on, and to vest
[Trustee and] Collateral Agent with power of sale in, such of the Mortgaged Property described therein that constitutes real property (including fixtures, to the extent the same constitute real property). The recordation of the [Mortgage/Deed of
Trust] in the [** NAME APPROPRIATE COUNTY RECORDING OFFICE**] is the only recordation, filing or registration necessary to perfect the lien on the Mortgaged Property created by the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust]. Upon recordation of the [Mortgage/Deed of
Trust] in the [** NAME APPROPRIATE COUNTY RECORDING OFFICE**], [Trustee/ Collateral Agent] will have a valid and perfected [mortgage/deed of trust lien] on the Mortgaged Property described therein. No other recordation, filing, re-recordation or
re-filing is necessary in order to perfect or to maintain the priority of the lien created by the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust]. 
  
 9. The real property descriptions attached to the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] are in form legally sufficient for the purpose of subjecting that portion of
the Mortgaged Property that constitutes real property to the lien evidenced by the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust]. 
  

 3 








 10. The [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] is in proper form sufficient to constitute a valid and
effective fixture filing with respect to the Premises and a valid and effective financing statement that covers as extracted collateral, in each case under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State naming Company as debtor
and Collateral Agent as secured party. 
  
 11.
Collateral Agent is not required to qualify to transact business in the State nor will Collateral Agent incur any tax imposed by the State (including, without limitation, any tax imposed by the State on interest or on revenue paid in respect of the
Credit Agreement), solely as the result of the ownership or recordation of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust]. 
  
 12. [**VIRGINIA ONLY** Except as specifically set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, no] No taxes or other charges, including, without
limitation, intangible, documentary, stamp, mortgage, transfer or recording taxes or similar charges are payable to the State or to any governmental authority or regulatory body located therein on account of the execution or delivery of the
[Mortgage/Deed of Trust], or the creation of the liens and security interests thereunder, or the filing, recordation or registration of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust], except for nominal filing or recording fees. 
  
 Qualifications 
  
 The foregoing opinions are subject to the following qualifications, limitations and
exceptions: 
  
 13. Qualifying paragraph 4 above,
the enforceability of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] and the liens created thereby may be limited or affected by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including, without
limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws) and by general principles of equity including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive
relief, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. The aforesaid opinion as to enforceability of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] is also subject to the qualification that certain provisions contained therein may not be
enforceable, but (subject to the limitations set forth in the foregoing sentence) such unenforceability will not render the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] invalid as a whole or substantially interfere with realization of the principal benefits and/or
security provided thereby. 
  
 14. In rendering
the opinions expressed in this opinion letter, we have made no examination of and express no opinion with respect to: (i) title to or, except as to adequacy of form, descriptions of the Mortgaged Property described in the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust];
(ii) the nature or extent of Company’s rights in, or title to, the Mortgaged Property; (iii) the existence or non-existence of liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances thereon or therein actually of record; or (iv) the priority of any
liens on any part of the Mortgaged Property. We have not independently certified the existence, condition, location or ownership of any of the Mortgaged Property. 
  
 This opinion is given as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any obligation to update this opinion letter for events
occurring after the date of this opinion letter. The foregoing opinion applies only with respect to the laws of the State and the federal laws of the United States of America and we express no opinion with respect to the laws of any other
jurisdiction. 
  
 This opinion is rendered only to Administrative
Agents, Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns (including any participant in any Secured Party’s interest) and is solely for their benefit in connection with the transactions contemplated by
the Subject

Documents and may not be relied upon by Administrative Agents, Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective successors or assigns
for any other purpose without our prior written consent. 
  
 Very truly yours,
