                                   ------

         If, at any time prior to December 31, 2001, the Project has not
sold a minimum of 70 percent of the output of the Project (up to a maximum
of 350,000 tons of Product per year) under contracts extending through
December 31, 2001, then KECC or its Affiliates will have the option to
enter into a contract to purchase the tonnage necessary to increase the
amount of output of the Project under contracts extending through December
31, 2001, to 70 percent of the output of the Project (up to a maximum of
350,000 tons of Product per year). Such contract may be entered into at any
time (prior to December 31, 2001) during the period beginning on the date
on which a proposal for a Commercial Project (including, without
limitation, a completed Feasibility Study) is submitted to the Members for
approval as provided in the LLC Agreement and the date on which KECC or its
Affiliate elects to approve such Commercial Project pursuant to the
procedures set out in the LLC Agreement. The price per ton of such Product,
F.O.B. the Project, shall be the price set forth with respect to such
tonnage under the lines "Utility #1 Index Coal Cost ($/ton)" and "Other
Utility Purchase Price ($/ton)" on the first page of the proforma
projections attached to the Partnership Agreement applicable to the tonnage
purchased and the year in which such Product is delivered. Such prices may
be escalated as provided in such proforma (a copy of which is attached
hereto with such lines highlighted).Exhibit 10.01.j

the royalties and license fees to be paid to the Company pursuant to
Sections I and 11 of this Schedule 10.l (ii)(B) shall be paid only on the

fees payable on the quantity of K-Fuel Products going in to produce the
Further-Beneficiated Products, the Company shall have no right to
participate in any royalties or license fees from Further-Beneficiated

         ------------------------------

         A. Carried Interest, Royalties and License Fees. The carried
interest, royalties and license fees payable by each licensee or

          submission to the Members of a Feasibility Study for a Commercial

          Amended Agreement, or

               2. if a Feasibility Study for a Commercial Project using
          these other feedstocks is being developed by a Member pursuant to
          a Work Plan that is funded solely by such Member under Section

<PAGE>

          10.3 of the Amended Agreement, by KFx and such Member prior to
          such presentation or submission.

         Such agreement shall be reached, in any event, prior to the time
any license or sublicense is granted by the Company to a Project Entity or
other Person, and the terms of such carried interest, royalties and license
fees shall be incorporated in such license or sublicense.

         B. Determination of Amount. Such carried interest, royalties and
license fees shall be based on the same general economic allocation as
results from the terms of the Amended Agreement, the Amended KFx License,
the Amended Series A and B License, and the KECC License to use K-Fuel
Technology with any feedstock other than coal or coal-related feedstocks.

The amount and method of calculation of carried interest, royalties and
license fees attributable to Commercial Projects using feedstocks other
than coal or coal-related feedstock shall be determined in a manner which
results in a sharing, as between KFx, the Company, and the Project Entity,
of the Commercial Project Value from projects involving feedstocks other
than coal or coal-related feedstocks, which sharing, as nearly as possible,
approximates the sharing, as between the same three respective parties,
which results from Commercial Projects using coal and coal-related
feedstocks pursuant to the terms of the Amended Agreement. Commercial
Project Value shall mean the discounted net present value (computed on an
alter tax, all equity basis using a *** real after tax discount rate) of
the estimated future cash flows from the Project. The amount and method of
calculation shall also be determined so that the proportionate share of
economic value to be derived by KFx and the Company from each of the three
factors (i.e. carried interest, royalty and license fee) shall approximate,
as nearly as possible, the proportionate share of value from each of these
factors to be derived by KFX and the Company from Commercial Projects which
use coal or coal-related feedstock pursuant to the terms of the Amended
Agreement.
