    c.    Prior to the purchase of the annuity contracts, North American Coal may amend the Pension Plan to allow lump sum distributions to participants not currently in pay status and, in its discretion, to participants currently in pay status, to reduce the amount of liabilities that would be transferred to the provider of the annuity contracts.  The Pension Plan may not be amended to add additional participants (or other payees) or to increase the benefit formula or accrued benefits due to any participant (or other payee).

    d.    In the course of terminating the Pension Plan, North American Coal, in its discretion and in its role as fiduciary under ERISA, may change the allocation of assets in the Pension Plan to increase the percentage of fixed income securities and decrease the percentage of equity securities, using Liability Driven Investing, or other acceptable approach under ERISA, to reduce market volatility prior to the purchase of annuity contracts.

e.    If the assets of the Pension Plan are less than the cost of the annuity contract(s), GRE shall promptly fund all amounts exceeding the assets of the Pension Plan as necessary to acquire the annuity contract(s) provided, however, that the cost of acquiring such annuity contracts is reasonable.

f.    If, after purchasing the annuity contract(s), assets remain in the Pension Plan trust, an amount equal to the amount of such remaining Pension Plan assets (after adjustment for any excise tax due form Falkirk or any Affiliate upon reversion under Internal Revenue Code Section 4980) shall be paid to GRE.  North American Coal shall provide GRE with such information regarding the Pension Plan as GRE reasonably requests, including without limitation funding status, the use of Pension Plan assets, and the purchase of annuity contracts. 

8

g.    North American Coal shall obtain quotes for the purchase of annuity contracts from several insurance companies, and will select an insurance provider in accordance with its fiduciary duties under ERISA and Department of Labor Interpretive Bulletin 95-1.

h.    Other than the additional funding set forth in (e) above and costs that may be properly paid from Pension Plan assets, North American Coal shall be responsible for paying all costs in connection with the termination of the Pension Plan. 

8.    Tolling.
The Parties agree that all statutes of limitation, laches, estoppel, statutes of repose, and similar equitable theories of avoidance or affirmative defense based on the passage of time relating to the Parties’ rights, actions, claims, or causes of action under any of the CCS Terminated Agreements (including, but not limited to, the obligation to request arbitration within two years pursuant to Section 14 of the Second Restatement of Coal Sales Agreement), and which had not run as of June 17, 2021, shall be suspended and tolled between (a) June 17, 2021, and (b) either the Closing Date or the Outside Date, whichever occurs first.  
9.    Mutual Releases.  
        a.
