Exhibit 4.6




     SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this “Second Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of June
15, 2011, among International Coal Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the
Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to herein) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust
Company, N.A., as trustee under the Indenture referred to below (the “Trustee”).



W I T N E S S E T H




     WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an Indenture, dated
as of July 31, 2007, as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of
December 3, 2009 (as amended and supplemented, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance of
9.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2012 (the “Securities”);



     WHEREAS, the Company is a party to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 2, 2011
(as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Arch Coal,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Arch”), Atlas Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly
owned subsidiary of Arch (the “Purchaser”), and the Company, pursuant to which the Purchaser merged
with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger and becoming a
direct wholly owned subsidiary of Arch;



     WHEREAS, the Merger became effective at 12:01 a.m., Eastern time, on June 15, 2011 (the
“Effective Time”) and, from and after the Effective Time, each share of Common Stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Common Stock owned by the Company,
Arch, the Purchaser (prior to the Merger) or any of their respective subsidiaries and Common Stock
held by dissenting holders of Common Stock who properly exercise appraisal rights under Delaware
law), by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders of the Common
Stock, was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive $14.60 per share, net to the seller in
cash, without interest and subject to any withholding taxes (the “Merger Consideration”);



     WHEREAS, Section 10.11 of the Indenture provides that in connection with the Merger the
Company shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that, at and after the
effective time of the Merger, the Holder of each Security then outstanding shall have the right to
convert such Security (if otherwise convertible pursuant to Article X) into the kind and amount of
cash, securities or other property receivable in the Merger by a holder of a number of shares of
Common Stock equal to a fraction whose denominator is one thousand (1,000) and whose numerator is
the product of the principal amount of such Security and the Conversion Rate in effect immediately
prior to the Merger;



     WHEREAS, Section 9.01(iv) of the Indenture provides that the Company, with the consent of the
Trustee, may amend or supplement the Indenture without notice to or the consent of any
Securityholder to make provisions with respect to adjustments to the Conversion Rate as required by
the Indenture;



     WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore delivered or is delivering contemporaneously herewith to
the Trustee (i) copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company



 









 




authorizing the execution of this Second Supplemental Indenture and (ii) the Officers’
Certificate and the Opinion of Counsel described in Section 9.06 of the Indenture; and




     WHEREAS, all other acts and proceedings required by law and the Indenture necessary to
authorize the execution and delivery of this Second Supplemental Indenture and to make this Second
Supplemental Indenture a valid and binding agreement for the purposes expressed herein, in
accordance with its terms, have been complied with or have been duly done or performed.



     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and notwithstanding any provision of the
Indenture which, absent this Second Supplemental Indenture, might operate to limit such action, the
parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:



ARTICLE I




AMENDMENTS



     1. Settlement Upon Conversion. Subject to and upon compliance with all the provisions of the
Indenture, upon conversion by a Holder of each Security then outstanding, the Holder shall have the
right to receive the Merger Consideration for each share of Common Stock into which the Holder is
entitled to convert such Security (after giving effect, if applicable, to any additional shares of
Common Stock that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if it converts its Securities
during a Make-Whole Conversion Period), and upon conversion of the Security by a Holder, the
Company shall pay to such Holder cash in an amount equal to the amount such Holder would have
received as Merger Consideration had such Holder converted its Securities at the Conversion Rate in
effect immediately prior to the Merger (after giving effect, if applicable, to any additional
shares of Common Stock that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if it converts its
Securities during a Make-Whole Conversion Period).



     2. Effectiveness. This Second Supplemental Indenture will become effective and operative and
binding upon each of the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities as of the Effective
Time.



ARTICLE II




MISCELLANEOUS



     1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Indenture.



     2. New York Law to Govern. The internal law of the State of New York shall govern and be used
to construe this Second Supplemental Indenture without giving effect to applicable principles of
conflicts of law to the extent that the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be
required thereby.



     3. Counterparts. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Second Supplemental
Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same
agreement.



2









 





     4. Separability. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and a Holder shall have no claim
therefor against any party hereto.



     5. Effect of Headings. The Article and Section headings herein are for convenience only and
shall not affect the construction hereof.



     6. Trustee’s Acceptance. The Trustee accepts the modifications of the Indenture effected by
this Second Supplemental Indenture, but only upon the terms and conditions set forth in the
Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee does not assume any
responsibility for the correctness of the recitals herein contained, which shall be taken as the
statements of the Company and the Guarantors. The Trustee makes no representation or warranty and
shall not have any responsibility as to the validity or sufficiency of this Second Supplemental
Indenture or the proper authorization or the due execution hereof by the Company or the Guarantors.
