 (f)    Quality Control, Licensor Approvals. Licensor as owner of the
Licensed Marks shall have the right at all times to control and approve the nature and quality of the Licensed Products, and to inspect Licensee’s business operations upon reasonable prior notice for the purpose of ensuring that a high level of
quality of the Licensed Products is being maintained by Licensee. At Licensor’s reasonable request during each calendar year, Licensee shall submit samples of Licensed Products to Licensor, at no cost to Licensor, and shall not materially
depart therefrom without Licensor’s prior express written consent. The Licensed Products, as well as all promotional, packaging and advertising material relative thereto, shall include all appropriate legal notices as required by Licensor. No
more frequently than once per year, a third party auditor chosen by Licensor and approved by Licensee, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, shall be entitled at any time on reasonable notice to the Licensee to enter, during regular
business hours, any premises used by the Licensee or its manufacturers for the manufacture, packaging, storage, or performance of the Licensed Products, to inspect such premises, all plant, workforce and machinery used for manufacture, packaging,
storage, or performance of Licensed Products and all other aspects of the manufacture, packaging, storage, and performance of Licensed Products (“Access Rights”). Prior to exercising such Access Rights, the third party auditor shall enter
into a nondisclosure agreement with Licensee that, among other terms deemed acceptable by Licensee and such third party auditor, shall: (a) limit the content of any report made by the third party auditor to Licensor to a description of the

Licensor. The Licensed Products shall be of a quality commensurate with previous products and services provided by Licensee prior to execution of the Separation Agreement. If the quality of a class of the Licensed Products falls below such
standards, Licensee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to restore such quality. In the event that Licensee has not taken appropriate steps to restore such quality within ninety (90) days after notification by Licensor, Licensor shall
have the right to terminate this Agreement. 
 (g)    Compliance with Trademark Usage Guidelines. Licensee agrees
to comply with Licensor’s trademark usage guidelines and any other policies and requirements applicable to the Licensed Marks.

Licensed Marks, Licensee shall promptly notify Licensor and provide pertinent details. Licensor shall have the right in its sole discretion to bring a legal action for infringement against the third party, together with the right to enforce and
collect any judgment thereon. If Licensor elects to exercise such right, Licensee shall, at Licensor’s request, provide reasonable assistance to Licensor, at the sole expense of Licensor. In the event that Licensor declines to bring a legal
action for infringement against a third party operating in the coal business identified by Licensee, Licensee shall have the right to bring a legal action for infringement against the third party upon receiving the prior written approval of
Licensor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. 
 3.    INDEMNIFICATION. 

(a)    Licensee shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Licensor and its officers, directors, employees, agents,
corporate subsidiaries, parents, and affiliates (“Licensor Indemnitees”) from and against any and all demands, claims, actions or causes of action, assessments, deficiencies, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including,

Licensee, including without limitation Licensee’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement. The Licensor Indemnitees agree to cooperate with Licensee, at Licensee’s expense, to provide copies of any documents or materials
reasonably requested by Licensee in support of its defense of the Licensor Indemnitees.
