     Whereas, Lessor owns the fee interests as indicated on Schedule A, attached hereto,
in the real property indicated on Schedule A (the “Owned Property”) and/or the leasehold interests
as indicated on Schedule B, attached hereto, in the real property indicated on Schedule B (the
“Leased Property”), demised pursuant to the agreements identified in Schedule B (as such agreements
may be supplemented, amended, restated, replaced, or modified from time to time, each such

hereafter may be acquired by Lessor (the Owned Property and the Leased Property are, collectively,
the “Premises”); and



     Whereas, Lessor, desires to lease the Premises to Lessee, and Lessee desires to lease
the same from Lessor, upon such terms and conditions as are set forth herein;



     Now Therefore, in consideration of One Dollar and the mutual covenants hereinafter
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:



     Subject to the terms hereof, Lessor does hereby lease unto Lessee the Premises and grant unto
Lessee an exclusive license to enter upon the Surface Lands (as hereafter defined) for the purpose
of mining all veins of coal on the Premises. It is agreed that Lessor hereby grants to Lessee,
with respect to the Premises, to the extent the Lessor has the right to do so, all mining rights,
privileges and immunities, of every nature and kind (including deep mining, strip mining, highwall
mining and auger mining rights), coal-bed methane rights and the rights to extract all other
minerals not covered by pre-existing rights currently held by Lessor or third parties, which are
necessary, convenient or customary in connection with or in relation to the conduct of mining
operations or the development, equipment or improvement of mines, or for the mining, extraction,
removal or recovery of coal, including the right to disturb, cast, and pile all strata without
regard to mineral content and for preparing and marketing coal; such rights, including, without
limitation, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations and to the extent the
Lessor has the right to grant the same, the right to install and maintain railroad, truck and river
dock loading facilities, storage areas, railroad tracks and switches, pumping stations, pole lines
and wires; to create gob piles (provided gob piles are maintained, stabilized, and removed or
covered as governed by all existing and future laws); to dig ditches for the drainage of water; to
lay pipe lines; to erect towers; to provide for the storage of materials and supplies; to construct
and use roadways; to erect and use



 









 





buildings, plants and structures of every kind; and, in general, and without limitation, to do any
and all things incident to Lessee’s mining, processing, and marketing of coal produced from the
Premises; and Lessee is empowered and authorized to exercise all of the aforesaid rights,
privileges and immunities.




     Subject, however, to the following rights existing as of the Effective Date: oil and gas
lease rights, public roads, public drainage ditches, easements for power lines, pipelines,
railroads and rights-of-way, telephone lines, buried cables and all other easements and
reservations.



     To Have and To Hold the same unto the Lessee, its successors and assigns, for and
during the term herein set forth and upon the following terms and conditions:



ARTICLE 1

Term of Lease




     Section 1.1-Term. The term of this Lease (“Term”) shall commence on the Effective
Date, and terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date; provided,
that the Term shall automatically be extended for ten (10) one-year extension periods, and
thereafter until such time as all of the minable and merchantable coal has been mined, unless
Lessee delivers notice of non-renewal to Lessor prior to the end of the then-existing Term. Lessee
shall be entitled to terminate this Lease upon ninety (90) days’ written notice to Lessor, in which
case Lessee’s obligations, including any royalty payments, shall be limited to those incurred as of
the date of such termination.



ARTICLE 2

Mining Operations and Surface Lands




     Section 2.1-Mining Operations. Lessee will conduct mining operations on the Premises
and the Surface Lands in a reasonable and professional manner in accordance with standard practices
employed in western Kentucky coalfields. Lessee shall conduct its mining operations in accordance
with, and shall comply with, all state and local laws and the lawful rules, regulations and orders
of any governmental authority in respect of such mining operations. Lessor grants to Lessee the
right, at the cost and expense of Lessee, to do and perform, with respect to the Premises, whatever
may be required to be performed by Lessee, or may be deemed by Lessee to be required or to be
advisable, in order to comply with federal, state or local law or the lawful rules, regulations or
orders or any governmental authority. Lessor further agrees to execute and deliver upon the request
of Lessee any additional forms or documentation required by any governmental agency or bureau with
regard to the prosecution of the mining operation.



     Section 2.2-Use of Surface Lands. Lessor shall retain in its possession the
instruments of every nature and kind evidencing Lessor’s interest in and to the Premises and the
Surface Lands and every part thereof; provided, however, that upon request by Lessee, Lessor shall
make such records available to Lessee for use thereof by Lessee. Except as otherwise provided
herein, Lessor shall retain possession of the surface rights



 









 





related to the Premises (the “Surface Lands”), until the same shall be required by Lessee in
connection with its mining operations hereunder, it being recognized by Lessee that the Surface
Lands are now or may hereafter be used by Lessor for farming or other purposes. When and as often
as Lessee shall first require any of the Surface Lands in connection with its mining operation,
Lessee shall, not more than one hundred twenty (120) or less than ninety (90) days prior to January
1 of the year when such Surface Lands will be required by Lessee, give written notice to Lessor
specifying such lands. At such time within said year as shall be mutually determined, but not
before the expiration of one hundred twenty (120) days after the receipt by Lessor of such notice,
Lessor shall deliver exclusive possession of said Surface Lands to Lessee. Notwithstanding the
above, if circumstances warrant, Lessee shall have the right, upon giving Lessor forty (40) days’
written notice, to take possession of such Surface Lands in connection with its mining operations
by paying Lessor or crop tenant for crop damage or soil preparation costs, as the case may be.
Lessee may, upon taking possession thereof, remove and disturb such Surface Lands or any part
thereof, except that Lessee shall, in its operations, prevent and avoid damage to existing oil
wells and/or pipelines. Forthwith upon termination of the need by Lessee for any particular part of
the said Surface Lands in connection with its mining operations hereunder, as determined by
Lessee’s mining plans, Lessee shall surrender possession thereof to Lessor, subject to the
provisions of Article 8, Lessee shall, prior to such surrender of possession, comply with all
applicable statutes and regulations then in effect with respect to restoration of such Surface
Lands. At Lessor’s request, and upon Lessee’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld, Lessee may surrender additional Surface Lands to Lessor that are not in Lessee’s mining
plan or have been reclaimed by Lessee and reclamation bonds released. Thereafter, Lessee shall
have no further obligations or rights with respect to such lands surrendered and the same shall be
deemed to be no longer a part of the Surface Lands; provided, however, that nothing contained in
this sentence shall derogate from or be construed to deny to Lessee, with respect to lands so
surrendered, the rights granted herein. Lessor shall have the right to convey title to any part of
lands so surrendered, subject, however, to the consent of Lessee, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, in which case Lessee shall have no further rights to such lands and such
lands shall no longer be part of this Lease. It is understood that Lessor shall make no use of any
lands so surrendered which may adversely affect Lessee’s and/or any assignees’ or sublessees’
rights hereunder in meeting their obligations with regard to reclamation of such lands under
applicable law.




     Section 2.3-Underlying Leases. Lessee hereby agrees to comply with the applicable
terms and conditions of any Underlying Lease, which terms are hereby incorporated herein by
reference.



ARTICLE 3

Royalties




     Section 3.1-Production Royalty Payments.



 









 




          (a) Payment for Coal Mined. For all coal mined and sold by Lessee from the Premises,
Lessee shall pay to Lessor a Production Royalty Payment in an amount equal to seven percent (7%) of
the Sales Price (as hereinafter defined) received by Lessee. In addition to the foregoing, Lessee
shall pay any royalties due for coal leased (not owned in fee) by Lessor. The aforementioned
payments shall be defined herein as the “Production Royalty Payments” for all purposes of this
Lease.


          (b) Definition of Sales Price. The term Sales Price as used herein shall mean the per
ton consideration actually charged Lessee for each 2,000 pounds of coal sold F.O.B. the mine after
final preparation and loading without any deduction of preparation and loading costs,
transportation costs, sales commissions or selling expenses, discounts, rebates, preparation
charges or any other costs or charges whatsoever. In the case of any coal not sold at arm’s
length, sold to an affiliate of Lessee, consumed by Lessee or sold for a consideration other than
money, the per ton consideration for computing the Sales Price shall be the average sale price for
coal of comparable quality under similar contracts, F.O.B. the mine at the time of shipment or
consumption without any deduction of preparation and loading costs, transportation costs, sales
commissions or selling expenses, discounts, rebates, preparation charges or any other costs or
charges whatsoever.


          (c) Lessee to Keep Records. Lessee shall keep records of truck scale weights, or
river barge dead weight surveys, or railroad car weights, whichever is applicable, together with
accurate surveys and progress maps used in conjunction with accepted and recognized engineering
methods which shall be taken as the basis for payment of Production Royalty Payments. Lessee shall
keep a true and correct record of all coal mined, removed and sold from the Premises and shall
permit Lessor or its agents, at all reasonable times, to inspect the records, and perform other
practical and reasonable investigations to check the accuracy of the records of Lessee. Lessor,
through its agents, may enter upon the Premises at any time for the purpose of verifying the
quantity of coal removed therefrom.


          (d) Time, Place and Allocation of Payment of Production Royalty Payments. All
Production Royalty Payments shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor on or before the 25th day
of each calendar month on all coal mined and produced by Lessee from the Premises which was sold
during the preceding calendar month and for which Lessee has received payment. All Production
Royalty Payments shall be paid by check or by wire transfer if Lessor so instructs and payable to
each of the entities constituting the “Lessor” in accordance with their respective undivided
interest in the Premises. Each payment of Production Royalty Payments hereunder shall be
accompanied by a statement from Lessee showing the number of tons of coal mined and sold during the
preceding calendar month (showing separately coal produced by the strip, surface, auger or open-pit
method of mining and coal produced by any other method of mining), the weighted average of the
Sales Price and the computation of royalties payable on such coal so mined and sold during such
calendar month. All payments due hereunder shall be mailed to Lessor at the address listed in this
Lease, or as otherwise directed by Lessor.



 









 








ARTICLE 4

Default




     Section 4.1-Events of Default.


          (a) Defaults Under this Lease. Should Lessee fail to pay any installment of any
royalty payment herein provided for when due, or should Lessee fail to observe or perform any other
covenant on its part to be observed or performed under the terms of this Lease, Lessor shall have
the right to give Lessee written notice specifying the particular default or defaults of which
complaint is made and of its intention to declare a forfeiture of this Lease by reason of such
default or defaults unless the same are rectified. If the default is the failure to pay to Lessor
an installment of a royalty payment at the time provided for herein, Lessee shall have five (5)
days from the date of receipt of such notice to correct such default. If the default is the failure
of Lessee to observe or perform some other covenant of this Lease other than to pay royalty
payments to Lessor, Lessee shall have thirty (30) days (if such default cannot be cured within
thirty (30) days, Lessee shall have such additional reasonable time to cure such default, provided
Lessee diligently takes action to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period) from the
date of receipt of such notice to cure such default. In case of a dispute as to whether or not any
such default exists, the time Lessee may cure such default, as aforesaid, shall not commence to run
until after the dispute is resolved by arbitration.


          (b) Remedies Upon Default. If Lessee fails to remedy any such default or defaults
within the time or times herein specified, then at the option of Lessor, all of Lessee’s rights
under this Lease shall terminate, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1(e), and Lessor shall
have the right to re-enter and take possession of the Premises and the Surface Lands without
obligation to assume any debt of Lessee; provided, however, that the termination of this Lease in
any manner or for any cause whatever shall not relieve Lessee of its obligation for any royalty
payment which may have accrued hereunder at the date of such termination; provided, further, that
the remedy of termination in the event of default by Lessee as above authorized shall not be deemed
or interpreted as the exclusive remedy available to Lessor, and Lessor may require and enforce
performance by Lessee of each and every term and provision of this Lease incumbent upon the Lessee
to be kept and performed, utilizing any available remedy therefor.


          (c) Arbitration. Any disagreement between Lessor and Lessee arising hereunder shall be
submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration
Association then in effect. A panel of three arbitrators, knowledgeable with the coal industry in
the western Kentucky area, shall be named, one to be selected by Lessee, one to be selected by
Lessor, and one to be selected by the other two arbitrators. If the two arbitrators appointed by
Lessor and Lessee cannot agree on the selection of the third neutral arbitrator selection of such
arbitrator shall be made by the American Arbitration Association. The non-prevailing party shall be
responsible for the reasonable expenses, fees and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorney’s fees) incurred by both Lessor and Lessee in such arbitration. If royalty payments are



 









 








disputed, then those payments shall be placed by Lessee in an interest-bearing escrow account
to be distributed in accordance with the decision of the arbitrators. With regard to any monetary
sum or quantum measurement such as coal tonnages or reserves, the figures determined by each of the
arbitrators shall be averaged and the determination which differs most from said average shall be
excluded; the remaining two determinations shall then be averaged and such average shall be final
and conclusive.



          (d) Rights of Lessee Upon Termination of Lease. Upon the termination of this Lease for
any cause or in any manner, and upon completion of all reclamation as required by governing
authorities and upon payment by Lessee to Lessor of all royalties due hereunder, Lessee shall have
the right and obligation within a period of twelve (12) months from the date of such termination to
remove all buildings, structures, machinery, equipment, tools, tracks, power lines and other
property owned by Lessee from any portion of the Surface Lands then owned by Lessor; provided,
however, that if the propriety of such termination shall be a matter of disagreement or dispute
between Lessor and Lessee, then such twelve (12) months’ period shall not commence to run until,
after the dispute is resolved. Provided, further, that if Lessee, notwithstanding the exercise of
reasonable diligence, is prevented by causes beyond the control, and without the fault or
negligence, of Lessee from removing said property of Lessee within such twelve (12) months’ period,
Lessee shall have, in addition to said twelve (12) months, a period of time equal to the period of
time during which Lessee was so prevented from removing such property.



ARTICLE 5

Representations and Warranties




     Section 5.1-Due Authority of Lessor and Quiet Enjoyment. Lessor covenants and warrants
that it has full power and authority to grant, lease, and let the Premises and the license to the
Surface Lands as hereinabove and hereinafter set forth. Lessor, for itself and its successors and
assigns, covenants that Lessee shall, against all and every person or persons lawfully claiming the
whole or any part of the Premises or the Surface Lands by, through, or under Lessor, have and
quietly possess and enjoy the Premises and the Surface Lands throughout the term of this Lease, so
long as Lessee shall not be in default in the performance of any covenant of this Lease incumbent
upon it to be kept and performed. In the event of any such asserted claim which may affect or
impair the quiet possession of any part of the Premises or the Surface Lands by Lessee, notice in
writing thereof shall be promptly delivered to Lessor, and Lessor shall be privileged to contest
any such claim at its expense; and in such event Lessee shall cooperate with Lessor to remedy the
situation, with respect to the part of the Premises or the Surface Lands as to which such claim has
been asserted until such claim is settled, which Lessor agrees shall be done promptly if same can
be done on a reasonable basis. Lessor shall not enter into any agreement(s) with third parties
that may interfere with the mining operation or create any obligation or responsibility on Lessee’s
part unless agreed to in writing by Lessee.



 









 





     Section 5.2-Eminent Domain or Condemnation Proceedings. Lessor covenants that there
are no eminent domain, zoning or condemnation proceedings pending or threatened against or related
to the Surface Lands or any portion thereof.



     Section 5.3-Litigation. Lessor represents and warrants that there is no claim, legal
action, suit, proceeding, arbitration, dispute, governmental investigation or administrative
proceeding, nor any order, decree, or judgment, pending or in effect, or, to Lessor’s knowledge,
threatened, against or affecting (i) the Premises and/or the Surface Lands, (ii) the ability of
Lessor to execute this Lease, or (iii) the accuracy and completeness of any representation and
warranty of Lessor made herein.



     Section 5.4-Third Party Claims. Lessor represents and warrants that neither Lessor
nor the Premises and/or the Surface Lands are bound by any contract, agreement, lease, license or
subject to any encumbrance of any kind or nature, to which Lessor or its predecessors were a party
thereto, and that would in any manner restrict, limit or affect Lessee’s ability to mine and
operate the Premises and/or the Surface Lands as Lessee would choose, free of any obligation to or
claim of any person or organization associated with, arising out of or in connection with any such
contract, agreement, lease, license or encumbrance of Lessor or of any affiliate thereof, or of any
predecessor in title in interest to the Premises and/or the Surface Lands, including any agreement
applicable to any of its employees.



ARTICLE 6

Indemnification




     Section 6.1-Indemnification of Lessor. Lessee shall, at its own cost and expense, pay
all wages, workmen’s compensation claims, claims for material, equipment and supplies contracted
for by the Lessee in connection with the conduct of its operations hereunder, and shall indemnify
and hold, Lessor and its assigns harmless of, from and against, any and all claims damages,
demands, expenses, fines, liabilities and taxes (of any character or nature whatsoever, regardless
of by whom imposed), and losses of every conceivable kind, character and nature whatsoever
(including, but not limited to, claims for losses or damages to any property or injury to or death
of any person) asserted by or on behalf of any person arising out of, resulting from or in any way
connected with Lessee’s presence on or mining of the coal on the Premises or the Surface Lands.
Lessee also covenants and agrees, at its expense, to pay, and to indemnify and save Lessor and its
assigns harmless of, from and against, all costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and
liabilities incurred in any action or proceeding brought by reason of any such claim or demand.



ARTICLE 7

Taxes




     Section 7.1-Payment of Taxes. Lessee shall pay or cause to be paid the real estate
taxes levied on the Premises and the Surface Lands and shall pay all severance taxes or other taxes
based upon production of coal mined from the Premises.



 









 





ARTICLE 8

Reclamation of Surface Lands




     Section 8.1-Reclamation of Surface Lands by Lessee. Once mining commences on the
Surface Lands, Lessee will reclaim the Surface Lands in accordance with all existing applicable
federal, state and local laws. In this connection, it will, among other things, fill in or cover
all cuts, pits and adits or establish water impoundments, restore the mined out areas to an
acceptable contour, replant such areas and dispose of all toxic and acid-bearing substances in
accordance with all applicable laws and regulations in order to ensure that the Surface Lands will
not constitute an unreasonable hazard. Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
inspect all land restoration and revegitation of the Surface Lands and the disposal of toxic
substances on the Surface Lands to see that Lessee has complied with all existing applicable
federal, state and local laws before Lessee requests releases from any federal, state or county
bonding requirements in connection with the above. Lessee shall have no obligation to dispose of
foreign or toxic substances of Lessor or others without the written agreement of Lessee. Lessee
shall have the right to make re-entry onto the Surface Lands with machinery and equipment from time
to time after the formal termination of the term hereof for the purpose of compliance with any
federal, state or local government requirements.



ARTICLE 9

General




     Section 9.1-Remedies, Etc., Cumulative. Each right, power and remedy of Lessor
or Lessee provided for in this Lease shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to
every other right, power or remedy provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law

failure to exercise by Lessor or Lessee of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies
provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Lessor or Lessee of any or all
rights, powers or remedies.

Majeure, then the obligations of the party giving such notice shall be suspended to the extent made
