                          OF NATIONAL COAL CORPORATION
                              DATED MARCH 25, 2003

         This Amendment to Warrant for the Purchase of 751,500 shares of common
stock of National Coal Corporation dated March 25, 2003 is hereby made by and
between National Coal Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under
the laws of the State of Tennessee (hereinafter referred to as "National"), and
the Webb Group (hereinafter referred to as "Holder") effective as of March 25,
2003.

                              W I T N E S S E T H :

         WHEREAS, National executed a Warrant (the "Warrant") for the Purchase
of 751,500 shares of common stock of National dated March 25, 2003 in favor of
the Holder; and

         WHEREAS, terms regarding the exercise of the Warrant were inadvertently
omitted from said Warrant; and

         WHEREAS, the parties now desire to set forth and incorporate in the
Warrant the following terms and conditions.

         NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the foregoing recitals, the
mutual terms and conditions set forth below, and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereby agree as follows:

1.      The following language is hereby added under paragraph 1 of the Warrant:

         National shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder
shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant to the extent
that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise, the Holder (together
with the Holder's affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the
number of shares of the common stock of National outstanding immediately after
giving effect to such issuance. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the
number of shares of common stock of National beneficially owned by the Holder
and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of common stock of
National issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the
determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of
shares of common stock of National which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of
the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the
Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the
unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
(including, without limitation, any other Warrants) subject to a limitation on
conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially
owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the
preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall
be

<PAGE>

calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. To the extent
that the limitation contained in this paragraph applies, the determination of
whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by
the Holder) and of which a portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in
the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of Notice of Exercise
shall be deemed to be such Holder's determination of whether this Warrant is
exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which
portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to such aggregate
percentage limitation, and National shall have no obligation to verify or
confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this paragraph, in
determining the number of outstanding shares of common stock of National, the
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of common stock of National
as reflected in National's most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may
be, a more recent public announcement by National, or any other notice by
National or National's transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of
common stock of National outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of the
Holder, National shall within two (2) trading days confirm orally or in writing
to the Holder the number of shares of common stock of National then outstanding.
In any case, the number of outstanding shares of common stock of National shall
be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of
National, including this Warrant by the Holder or its affiliates since the date
as of which such number of outstanding shares of common stock of National was
reported. The provisions of this paragraph may be waived by the Holder upon, at
the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days' prior notice to National, and
the provisions of this paragraph shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or
such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in such notice
of waiver).

2. All other terms,  provisions and  conditions  contained in this Agreement not
inconsistent herewith, shall remain in full force and effect.

     This 26th day of February, 2004.

(c) "Owner" shall mean Golden Spike, its successors and assigns; and 

 

(d) "Product" means Ore mined from the Property and any concentrates or other materials or products derived therefrom, provided, however, that if any such Ore, concentrates or other materials or products are further treated as part of the mining operation in respect of the Property, such Ore, concentrates or other materials or products shall not be considered to be "Product" until after they have been so treated. 

 

Other capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. 

 

2. The Owner shall give notice to BUS of the date on which Ore is first mined. It is agreed that pilot plant operations and the mining or milling of Ore in connection therewith shall not be considered commercial production. 

 

3. The amount of Royalty payable to BUS, namely two percent (2%) of Net Smelter Returns, shall be calculated by the Owner each calendar quarter and at the end of such quarter and shall be paid to BUS within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter. Any adjustments in the payment of Royalty hereunder arising out of an audit referred to in paragraph (9) hereof shall be made and paid at that time. 

 

4. For the purposes of calculating the amount of NSR payable hereunder only, if the Owner sells any Product to one of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and if the sale price of such Product is not negotiated on an arm's length basis, the Owner shall, for the purposes of calculating Net Smelter Returns only and notwithstanding the actual amount of such sale price, add to the proceeds from the sale of such Product an amount which would be sufficient to make such sale price represent a reasonable net sale price for such Product as if negotiated at arm's length and after taking into account all pertinent circumstances (including, without limitation, then current market conditions relating to Ore, concentrates, or other materials or products similar to such Product). 

 

 

	 
	 	23	 
	

	 

 

5. The Owner shall by notice inform BUS of the amount of such reasonable net sale price and if BUS does not object thereto within 60 days after receipt of such notice, such amount shall be final and binding for the purposes of this paragraph. 

 

6. On or before the last day of each quarter of each year after the date of commencement of Commercial Production, the Owner shall deliver to BUS a statement indicating in reasonable detail, as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter, the calculation of Net Smelter Returns and the aggregate NSR payable for such quarter. 

 

7. The Owner may remove reasonable quantities of Ore and rock from the Property for the purpose of bulk sampling and of testing, and there shall be no NSR payable to BUS with respect thereto unless revenues are derived therefrom. 

 

8. The Owner agrees to maintain for each mining operation on the Property up to date and complete records relating to the production and sale of Product including accounts, records, statements and returns relating to treatment and smelting arrangements of the Product, and BUS or its agents shall have the right at all reasonable times, including for a period of 12 months following the expiration or termination of this Agreement, to inspect such records, statements and returns and make copies thereof at its own expense for the purpose of verifying the amount of NSR payments to be made by the Owner to BUS pursuant hereto. BUS shall have the right at its own expense to have such accounts audited by independent auditors once each year. 

 

9. The Owner shall have an audited statement prepared by its auditors for each year with respect to the NSR payable to BUS hereunder, within 140 days of the Owner's fiscal year end, and the Owner shall forthwith deliver a copy of such statement to BUS. 

 

10. All NSR payments shall be considered final and in full satisfaction of all obligations of the Owner making same in respect thereof if such payments or the calculation in respect thereof are not disputed by BUS within 120 days after receipt by BUS of the audited statement referred to in paragraph (9) hereof. Any disputes under this paragraph shall be decided by arbitration as herein provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an undisputed calculation or payment shall not be considered final or binding if an incorrect calculation or payment is shown to be the result of fraud committed by any party, including a third party smelter or refinery. 

 

11. Subject to the prior consent of BUS, the Owner shall have the right to commingle with ores from the Property, those ores produced from other properties. In order that BUS may make an reasoned decision in granting its consent to commingle, the Owner shall provide BUS in advance an explanation of its proposed commingling plan, together with engineering and metallurgical reports and studies which assure that the commingling plan will accurately account for and provide payment to BUS of the full amount of royalties to which it is entitled. In the event that BUS grants its consent to commingle, the Owner shall adopt and employ reasonable practices and procedures for weighing, determination of moisture content, sampling and assaying, as well as utilize reasonably accurate recovery factors in order to determine the amounts of products derived from, or attributable to Ore mined and produced from the Property. The Owner shall maintain accurate records of the results of such sampling, weighing and analysis as pertaining to Ore mined and produced from the Property. 

 

12. In the event of a dispute between the parties with respect to the matters contemplated hereunder, that dispute shall be settled by a single arbitrator in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada and judgment upon the award rendered may be entered into any court having jurisdiction thereof.

SCHEDULE "C" 

 

REFERRED TO IN THE AGREEMENT DATED FOR REFERENCE THE 28th DAY OF FEBRUARY, 

2003 BETWEEN BRANCOTE U.S. INC. AND GOLDEN SPIKE MINING 

 

The following is the text of a purported agreement between Brancote U.S. Inc. and Herb Duerr which was dated by the parties on November 28, 1999 and November 30, 1999, respectively. This document is commonly referred to as the "Grubstake Agreement". 

 

Grubstake Agreement 

Brancote U.S. Inc/Herb Duerr 

 

Brancote U.S. Inc. (BUS) acknowledges the major contribution of Herb Duerr (HD) in the identification and acquisition of certain mineral claims (Properties/Property) in Nevada, Arizona, Colorado and Arkansas acquired by BUS during the period 1989 through 1998 while he worked as a contractor for BUS. In return for his contribution with respect to the Properties listed on Schedule A BUS grants HD the following consideration: 

 

1.     5% of net profits, following recovery of 100% of its costs incurred since initial acquisition, including a reasonable charge for overheads consistent with industry standards and interest at the United States prime lending rate +2%, received by BUS through its participation in mineral production from a Property. 

 

2.     5% of revenues received by BUS from production royalties based upon gross receipts, net smaller returns or net profit interests held in any Property. 

 

3.     5% of revenues or other consideration received by BUS from pre-production payments, in excess of a cumulative total of $50,000 from any individual Property pursuant to a single agreement, whether paid as all or part of a purchase, lease, rental or option agreement with a third party. 

 

In the event BUS decides to abandon a Property subject to this Agreement, through relinquishment of its interest in all of the mineral claims constituting the Property. It shall advise HD 15 days in advance and make all data related to the Property available to HD to review and copy at a place of his choice and at his sole cost and expense. HD will advise BUS prior to the specified date of abandonment if he wishes to take assignment of the Property for his own account. Failure of HD to so notify BUS will result in abandonment of the Property and termination of any obligations BUS may have to HD with respect to the Property. 

 

The Interests of HD, his successors and assigns in this Agreement, survive termination of his employment or contractual role with BUS.
