construction set forth in Section 1.2 [Construction] of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this Guaranty. This is the “CNX Gas Guaranty Agreement” referred to in the Credit Agreement. 

1. Guarantied Obligations. To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to make loans and grant other financial
accommodations to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally unconditionally, and irrevocably, guaranties to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and becomes surety, as though it was a primary obligor
for, the full, strict and indefeasible payment and performance when due (whether on demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise and including any amounts which would become due but for the operation of an automatic stay under the
federal bankruptcy code of the United States or any similar laws of any country or jurisdiction) of: (i) all Obligations, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness from time to
time of the Borrower or any other Guarantor to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders, under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service
Product, whether for principal, interest, fees, indemnities, expenses, or otherwise, and all refinancings or refundings thereof, whether such obligations, liabilities, or indebtedness are direct or indirect, secured or unsecured, joint or several,
absolute or contingent, due or to become due, whether for payment or performance, now existing or hereafter arising (and including obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising or accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, or similar proceeding with respect to any of the Loan Parties or that would have arisen or accrued but for the commencement of such proceeding (including without limitation, interest after default), even if the claim for such
obligation, liability or indebtedness is not enforceable or allowable in such proceeding, and including all Obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising from any extensions of credit under or in connection with the Loan Documents, or any
Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, from time to time, regardless of whether any such extensions of credit are in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, or any Specified
Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, or are made in circumstances in which any condition to extension of credit is not satisfied), (ii) any obligation or liability of any of the Loan Parties arising out of
overdrafts on deposits or other accounts or out of electronic funds (whether by wire transfer or 

 
through automated clearing houses or otherwise) or out of the return unpaid of, or other failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to receive final payment for, any check, item,
instrument, payment order or other deposit or credit to a deposit or other account, or out of the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s non-receipt of or inability to collect funds or otherwise not being made whole in connection with
depository or other similar arrangements, and (iii) any amendments, extensions, renewals and increases of or to any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing obligations, liabilities and indebtedness are referred to herein collectively as the
“Guarantied Obligations” and each as a “Guarantied Obligation”). Without limitation of the foregoing, any of the Guarantied Obligations shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this
Guaranty if the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders (or any one or more assignees or transferees thereof) from time to time assigns or otherwise transfers all or any portion of their respective rights and obligations under the Loan Documents,
or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other Person as provided by the Loan Documents, by the Specified Swap Agreements or by the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Guarantor jointly and
severally agrees as follows: 
 2. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby promises to pay and perform all such Guarantied
Obligations when due and payable, after the expiration of any applicable cure periods, immediately upon demand of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or any one or more of them. All payments made hereunder shall be made by each Guarantor in
immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars and shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, withholding, or other deduction of any nature. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not
of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender to any of the security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender in favor of any Borrower or any other person. 
 3. Obligations Absolute. The
obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by any failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by any Lender, the Administrative Agent, or the Borrower or any other obligor on
any of the Guarantied Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any
Guarantor as a matter of law or equity, except for, and to the extent of, payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each of the Guarantors agrees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the
terms of the Loan Documents, the Specified Swap Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Services Products. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby consents to, at any time and from time to time, and the
joint and several obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following: 
 (a) Any lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in
whole or in part, of any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of the Guarantied Obligations, any of the terms of the Loan
Documents, Specified

of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Guarantied Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Services Products; or any amendment,
modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; 
 (c)
Any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other
Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful
action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Person under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any refusal of payment or performance of any
of the Guarantied Obligations, whether or not with any reservation of rights against any Guarantor; or any application of collections (including but not limited to collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the
Guarantied Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, in preference to Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, or if any collections are applied to Guarantied Obligations, any
application to particular Guarantied Obligations; 
 (d) Any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, waiver, supplement,
termination, subordination, compromise, release, surrender, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights, or remedies under or in connection
with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies
under or in connection with, or, any other action or inaction by any of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations. As used in
this Guaranty, “direct or indirect security” for the Guarantied Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement,
or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person; 

(e) Any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring
or termination of the corporate structure or existence of, the Borrower or any other Person; any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any other Person; or any action taken or election

made by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (including but not limited to any election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code), the Borrower, or
any other Person in connection with any such proceeding; 
 (f) Any defense, setoff, or counterclaim which may at any time be
available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person with respect to any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations, other than, and to the extent of, payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; or any discharge by
operation of law or release of the Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; and 
 (g) Any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of, any
Guarantor, a guarantor or a surety, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations in full. 
 Each Guarantor acknowledges, consents, and agrees that new Guarantors may join in this Guaranty pursuant to Section 17 hereof, and each Guarantor affirms that its obligations shall continue hereunder
undiminished. 
 4. Waivers, etc. Each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense to (other than, and to the extent of,
the defense of prior payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations) or limitation on its obligations under this Guaranty arising out of or based on any event or circumstance referred to in Section 3 hereof. Without limitation and to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives each of the following: 
 (a) Except as may be expressly
contemplated by the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, all notices, disclosures and demand of any nature which otherwise might be required from time to time to
preserve intact any rights against any Guarantor, including the following: any notice of any event or circumstance described in Section 3 hereof; any notice required by any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any
jurisdiction; any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any notice of the incurrence of any Guarantied Obligation; any notice of any default or any failure on the
part of the Borrower or any other Person to comply with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; and any notice of any information pertaining to the business,

 (b) Any right to any
marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against the Borrower or any other Person in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or to the exercise against the Borrower or any other Person of any other
right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations

  
 -4-

 
or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document,

action” laws or the like), or by reason of any election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (including but not limited to commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or
nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security for any of the Guarantied Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, to seek a deficiency against
the Borrower or any other Person or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Guarantied Obligations; and 
 (d) Any and
all defenses it may now or hereafter have based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like. 
 5.
Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a continuing obligation of the Guarantors and shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that no Guarantied Obligations may be outstanding from time to time and notwithstanding any other event or
circumstance. Upon Payment In Full, and provided that none of the other obligations referred to in Section 1(ii) hereof are then in default, this Guaranty shall terminate; provided, however, that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or
be reinstated, as the case may be, any time any payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations is rescinded, recouped, avoided, or must otherwise be returned or released by any Lender or the Administrative Agent upon or during the insolvency,
bankruptcy, or reorganization of, or any similar proceeding affecting, the Borrower or for any other reason whatsoever, all as though such payment had not been made and was due and owing. 

6. Subrogation. Each Guarantor waives and agrees that it will not exercise any rights against the Borrower or any other Guarantor
arising in connection with, or any Collateral securing, the Guarantied Obligations (including rights of subrogation, contribution, and the like) until Payment In Full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or on behalf of the Borrower or
any other Guarantor by virtue of any right of subrogation, contribution, or the like, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and shall be held in trust for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. 

7. No Stay. Without limitation of any other provision of this Guaranty, if any declaration of default or acceleration or other
exercise or condition to exercise of rights or remedies under or with respect to any Guarantied Obligation shall at any time be stayed, enjoined, or prevented for any reason (including but not limited to stay or injunction resulting from the
pendency against the Borrower or any other Person of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding), the Guarantors agree that, for the purposes of this Guaranty and their obligations hereunder, the Guarantied Obligations shall be
deemed to have been declared in default or accelerated, 

  
 -5-

 
and such other exercise or conditions to exercise shall be deemed to have been taken or met. 
 8. Taxes. 
 (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or
on account of any obligation of any of the Guarantors hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Guarantor shall be
required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Paragraph) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Guarantor shall make
such deductions and (iii) such Guarantor shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by any Guarantor. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, each Guarantor shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance
with applicable Law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Guarantors. Each Guarantor shall indemnify the Administrative Agent,
each Lender and the Issuing Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable
under this Paragraph) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Guarantor by a Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Certificate. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Guarantor to an Official Body, such Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, the
original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e) Tax Provisions Incorporated By Reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any and all payments by or on account
of any obligation of the Guarantors hereunder, the provisions of Section 5.9 [Taxes] of the Credit Agreement are cross-referenced, incorporated herein and shall apply to the Administrative Agent, each Lender, Issuing Lender and any Guarantor as
if such Guarantor is, in fact, the Borrower; provided, however, that no Guarantor shall have any obligation under this Section 8 [Taxes] in excess of such Guarantor’s Guarantied Obligations. 

  
 -6-

 9. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor makes the representations and
warranties set forth in Section 6.1.1, 6.1.3, 6.1.4, 6.1.5, 6.1.11, 6.1.12, 6.1.16 and 6.1.25 of the Credit Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as to itself and its Subsidiaries as if it were a “Loan Party” referred to thereunder.

 10. Notices. Each Guarantor agrees that all notices, statements, requests, demands and other communications under this
Guaranty shall be given to such Guarantor at the address set forth on a Schedule to the Credit Agreement and in the manner provided in Section 11.5.1 [Notices Generally] of the Credit Agreement or in a Joinder. The Administrative Agent and the
Lenders may rely on any notice (whether or not made in a manner contemplated by this Guaranty) purportedly made by or on behalf of a Guarantor, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no duty to verify the identity or authority of
the Person giving such notice. 
 11. Counterparts; Telecopy Signatures. This Guaranty may be executed by different
parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page by
telecopy or electronic signature delivery system (in either case in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed signature page to this Guaranty. 

12. Setoff, Default Payments by Borrower. 
 (a) In the event that at any time any obligation of the Guarantors now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty shall have become due and payable, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of
them, shall have the right from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, to set off against and apply to such due and payable amount any obligation of any nature of any Lender or the Administrative Agent, or any subsidiary or affiliate of any
Lender or the Administrative Agent, to any Guarantor, including but not limited to all deposits (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally credited, however evidenced) now or hereafter maintained by any Guarantor
with the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof. Such right shall be absolute and unconditional in all circumstances and, without limitation, shall exist whether or not the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or
any of them, shall have given any notice or made any demand under this Guaranty or under such obligation to the Guarantor, whether such obligation to the Guarantor is absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured (it being agreed that the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may deem such obligation to be then due and payable at the time of such setoff), and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any collateral, guaranty, or other direct or indirect security or
right or remedy available to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders. The rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section are in addition to such other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of
setoff and banker’s lien) which the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may have, and nothing in this Guaranty or in any other Loan Document, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products shall
be deemed a waiver of or restriction on the right of setoff or banker’s lien of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any affiliate or
subsidiary of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders and any holder of a participation in any obligation of any Guarantor 

  
 -7-

 
under this Guaranty, shall have the same rights of setoff as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as provided in this Section (regardless whether such affiliate or participant otherwise would
be deemed a creditor of any Guarantor). 
 (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any default under any
Guarantied Obligation, if any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or for the account of the Borrower, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of each Lender and the Administrative Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the
Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guarantied Obligations when due and payable. 
 13. Construction.
The section and other headings contained in this Guaranty are for reference purposes only and shall not affect interpretation of this Guaranty in any respect. This Guaranty has been fully negotiated between the applicable parties, each party having
the benefit of legal counsel, and accordingly neither any doctrine of construction of guaranties or suretyships in favor of the guarantor or surety, nor any doctrine of construction of ambiguities in agreement or instruments against the party
controlling the drafting thereof, shall apply to this Guaranty. 
 14. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be
binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, and their successors and assigns except that no Guarantor may assign or
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein other than assignments and transfers permitted by the Credit Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them (and any
successive assignee or transferee), from time to time may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or any portion of any commitment to extend credit), or any other
Guarantied Obligations, to any other Person as provided and permitted by the Credit Agreement and such Guarantied Obligations (including any Guarantied Obligations resulting from extension of credit by such other Person under or in connection with
the Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products) shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty, and to the extent of its interest in such Guarantied Obligations
such other Person shall be vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in this Guaranty or otherwise. 
 15. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS 

  
 -9-

 
AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 16. Severability; Modification to Conform to Law. 
 (a) The provisions of
this Guaranty are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Guaranty shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction. 

(b) Without limitation of the preceding Subsection (a), to the extent that applicable law (including applicable laws pertaining to
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent or preferential transfer) otherwise would render the full amount of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder invalid, voidable, or unenforceable on account of the amount of a Guarantor’s aggregate liability
under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the aggregate amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders or such Guarantor or any
other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding, which (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) may be an amount which is equal to the
greater of: 
 (i) the fair consideration actually received by such Guarantor under the terms and as a result of
the Loan Documents, the Specified Swap Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products and the value of the benefits described in Section 19(b) hereof, including (and to the extent not inconsistent with applicable federal
and state laws affecting the enforceability of guaranties) distributions, commitments, and advances made to or for the benefit of such Guarantor with the proceeds of any credit extended under the Loan Documents, the Specified Swap Agreements or
Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or 
 (ii) the excess of (1) the amount of the fair value
of the assets of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty as determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof, over (2) the amount of all
liabilities of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty, also as determined on the basis of applicable federal and state laws governing the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section or elsewhere in this Guaranty, this Guaranty shall be presumptively valid
and enforceable to its full extent in accordance with its terms, as if this Section (and references elsewhere in this Guaranty to enforceability to the fullest extent permitted by law) were not a part of this Guaranty, and in any related litigation
the burden of proof shall be on the party asserting the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof or asserting any limitation on any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as to each element of such assertion. 

  
 -10-

 17. Additional Guarantors. CNX Gas hereby agrees that if any Subsidiary of CNX Gas
becomes a “Loan Party” or “Guarantor” under the CNX Gas Credit Agreement, CNX Gas shall cause such Subsidiary, concurrently therewith, to deliver to the Administrative Agent a joinder to this Guaranty in the form of Exhibit A
hereto (a “Joinder”). No notice of the addition of any Guarantor shall be required to be given to any pre-existing Guarantor and each Guarantor hereby consents thereto. 

18. Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations and additional liabilities of each and every Guarantor under this Guaranty are
joint and several obligations of the Guarantors, and each Guarantor hereby waives to the full extent permitted by law any defense it may otherwise have to the payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations that its liability hereunder is
limited and not joint and several. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers and those set forth below serve as a material inducement to the agreement of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to make the Loans, and that
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are relying on each specific waiver and all such waivers in entering into this Guaranty. The undertakings of each Guarantor hereunder secure the obligations of itself and the other Guarantors. The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this Guaranty against any Guarantor without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Guarantor and such an election by the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may elect to take against any Guarantor. Each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby reserve all rights
against each Guarantor. 
 19. Receipt of Credit Agreement, Other Loan Documents, Benefits. 

(a) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any Specified
Swap Agreement and any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, and each Guarantor certifies that the representations and warranties made therein with respect to such Guarantor are true and correct. Further, each Guarantor acknowledges and
agrees to perform, comply with, and be bound by all of the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent applicable to such Guarantor. 
 (b) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges, represents, and warrants that it receives synergistic benefits by virtue of its affiliation with the Borrower and the other Guarantors and that it will receive
direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement and that such benefits, together with the rights of contribution and subrogation that may arise in connection herewith are a reasonably equivalent
exchange of value in return for providing this Guaranty. 
 20. Release of Guarantor. In the event that any Guarantor
ceases to be a “Loan Party” and “Guarantor” under the CNX Gas Credit Agreement, such Guarantor shall currently be released from this Guaranty automatically and without further action, and this Guaranty shall, as to such
Guarantor, terminate and have no further force or effect. The Administrative Agent agrees to execute an instrument evidencing such release in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent upon request of CNX Gas and certification by
CNX Gas that such Guarantor has ceased to be a “Loan Party” and “Guarantor” under the CNX Gas Credit Agreement. In connection 

  
 -11-

 
with the merger of the Guarantor into another CNX Gas Loan Party, this Guaranty will be assumed (as a matter of law) by such other CNX Gas Loan Party and will, together with any Guaranty of the
Guarantied Obligations by such other CNX Gas Loan Party, constitute a single Guaranty. 
 21. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Generality of Certain Terms. As used in this Guaranty, the terms “hereof,” “herein” and terms of similar
import refer to this Guaranty as a whole and not to any particular term or provision. 
 (b) Amendments, Waivers. No
amendment to or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless in a writing manually signed by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Any
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No delay or failure of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, in exercising any right or remedy under this
Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Guaranty are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies available hereunder, under any other agreement or instrument, by law, or otherwise. 

(c) Telecommunications. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any individual
making any telecopy or telephonic notice, request, or signature without the necessity of receipt of any verification thereof. 

(d) Expenses. Each Guarantor unconditionally agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees,
incurred by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders in enforcing this Guaranty against any Guarantor and each Guarantor shall pay and indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for, and hold it harmless from and against, any and all
obligations, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses (including disbursements and reasonable legal fees of counsel to any Lender or the Administrative Agent), penalties, judgments, suits, actions, claims, and disbursements imposed on, asserted
against, or incurred by any Lender or the Administrative Agent (i) relating to the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement of or collection under this Guaranty or any document, instrument, or agreement relating to
any of the Obligations, including in any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding in any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof; (ii) relating to any amendment, modification, waiver, or consent hereunder or relating to any telecopy
or telephonic transmission purporting to be by any Guarantor or the Borrower; (iii) in any way relating to or arising out of this Guaranty, or any document, instrument, or agreement relating to any of the Guarantied Obligations, or any action
taken or omitted to be taken by any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder, and including those arising directly or indirectly from the violation or asserted violation by any Guarantor or the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or any Lender
of any law, rule, regulation, judgment, order, or the like of any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof (including those relating to environmental protection, health, labor, importing, exporting, or safety) and regardless whether asserted by
any governmental entity or any other Person. 

  
 -12-

 (e) Prior Understandings. This Guaranty and the Credit Agreement supersede all prior
understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties hereto and thereto and relating to the transactions provided for herein and therein. 
 (f) Survival. All representations and warranties of the Guarantors made in connection with this Guaranty shall survive, and shall not be waived by, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty, any
investigation by or knowledge of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, any extension of credit, or any other event or circumstance whatsoever.

 2. REVOLVING CREDIT AND SWING LOAN FACILITIES

 2.1 Commitments. 
 2.1.1 Revolving Credit Commitments. 
 Subject to the terms
and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender severally agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower at any time or from time to time on or after the date hereof to the Expiration
Date; provided that after giving effect to such Loan, (i) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and provided further that the Revolving Exposures at any time shall
not exceed the lesser of (a) the Borrowing Base or (b) the Revolving Credit Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate amount of Indebtedness (as defined in the CONSOL Senior Note Indenture (2011)) under this Agreement and the CONSOL
Credit Agreement shall not exceed the Applicable Senior Notes Indenture Cap; provided, further, that (x) at the Administrative Agent’s request, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent calculations and supporting
information reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent showing compliance with clause (ii) and (y) notwithstanding the foregoing clause (x), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request such calculation or
information or to determine compliance with clause (ii), and shall be fully entitled to assume (without any further investigation) that each 

  
 -34-

 
borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans complies with clause (ii) if the Borrower makes a Loan Request for such borrowing. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other
provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.1. 

2.1.2 Swing Loan Commitment. 

In order to minimize the transfer of funds between the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may borrow,
repay and reborrow Swing Loans and PNC may make Swing Loans as provided in this Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loan Commitment]. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, and in order
to facilitate loans and repayments between Settlement Dates, PNC may, at its option, cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever, make swing loans (the “Swing Loans”) to the Borrower at any time or from time to time after the
date hereof to, but not including, the Expiration Date, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not in excess of $50,000,000 (the “Swing Loan Commitment”), provided that the Revolving Exposures shall not at any time exceed
the lesser of (a) the Borrowing Base or (b) the Revolving Credit Commitments. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this
Section 2.1.2. 
 2.2 Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans. 

Each Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.5
[Loan Requests] in accordance with its Ratable Share. The aggregate of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans outstanding hereunder to the Borrower at any time shall never exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment minus its Ratable Share of the
Letter of Credit Obligations and the Swingline Exposure. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrower to any other party nor
shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder. The Lenders shall have no obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans hereunder on or after the Expiration Date. 

2.3 Commitment Fees. 
 Accruing from the date hereof until the Expiration Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, as consideration for such Lender’s Revolving Credit
Commitment hereunder, a nonrefundable commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) on the average
daily difference between the amount of (a) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment as the same may be constituted from time to time and (b) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure (for purposes of this computation, PNC’s Swing
Loans shall not be deemed to be borrowed amounts under its Revolving Credit Commitment); provided, however, that any Commitment Fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior
to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such Commitment Fee shall otherwise have been due and
payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and 

  
 -35-

 
provided further that no Commitment Fee shall accrue with respect to the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Subject to the
proviso in the directly preceding sentence, all Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date. 
 2.4
Voluntary Commitment Reduction. 
 The Borrower shall have the right any time and from time to time,
without premium or penalty, upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written, irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent to permanently reduce, in whole multiples of $5,000,000 of principal, or terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments;
provided that any such reduction or termination shall be accompanied by (a) the payment in full of any Commitment Fee then accrued on the amount of such reduction or termination and (b) the prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans,
together with the full amount of interest accrued on the principal sum to be prepaid (and all amounts referred to in Section 5.9 [Indemnity] hereof), to the extent that the Revolving Facility Usage exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitment as so
reduced or terminated, and provided further that the Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced below the Revolving Facility Usage. Each reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall pro-ratably reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments
of the Lenders. From the effective date of any such reduction or termination the obligations of Borrower to pay the Commitment Fee pursuant to Section 2.3 [Commitment Fees] shall correspondingly be reduced or cease. 

2.5 Loan Requests. 
 2.5.1 Revolving Credit Loan Requests. 
 Except as otherwise
provided herein, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans, or renew or convert the Interest Rate Option applicable to existing Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to
Section 4.2 [Interest Periods], by delivering to the Administrative Agent, no later than 11:00 a.m., (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making, renewal of or conversion to Revolving
Credit Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies; and (ii) the same Business Day of the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of a Revolving Credit Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies or the last day of the preceding
Interest Period with respect to the conversion to the Base Rate Option for any Loan, of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.5.1 or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing by letter,
facsimile or telex in such form (each, a “Loan Request”), it being understood that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such
written confirmation. Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify or certify, as applicable (i) the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) the aggregate amount of the proposed Loans comprising each Borrowing Tranche, which amount shall
be in (x) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 for each Borrowing Tranche under the LIBOR Rate Option and (y) an integral multiple of $50,000 and not less than the lesser of $500,000 or the maximum amount
available for Borrowing Tranches to which the Base Rate Option applies; (iii) whether the LIBOR Rate Option or Base Rate Option shall apply to the proposed Loans comprising the applicable Borrowing

  
 -36-

 
Tranche; and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing Tranche to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies, an appropriate Interest Period for the Loans comprising such Borrowing Tranche. 

2.5.2 Swing Loan Requests. 
 Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request PNC to make Swing Loans by delivery to PNC not later than 2:00 p.m. on the proposed Borrowing
Date of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.5.2 hereto or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing by letter, facsimile or telex (each, a “Swing Loan Request”), it being
understood that PNC may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Swing Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the proposed Borrowing
Date and the principal amount of such Swing Loan, which shall be in integral multiples of $50,000 and shall be not less than $100,000. 
 2.6 Making Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans. 
 2.6.1
Making Revolving Credit Loans. 
 The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan
Request pursuant to Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying: (i) the proposed Borrowing Date and the time and method of disbursement of the Revolving Credit Loans
requested thereby; (ii) the amount and type of each such Revolving Credit Loan and the applicable Interest Period (if any); and (iii) each Lender’s Ratable Share as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
Section 2.2 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and
the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 7.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit], fund such Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and
immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m. on the applicable Borrowing Date; provided that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, the Administrative Agent may
elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Credit Loans of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 2.6.2 [Presumptions of the Administrative Agent].

 2.6.2 Presumptions of the Administrative Agent. 

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. on the proposed date of any
Loan that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.6.1
[Making Revolving Credit Loans] and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Loan available to the Administrative Agent,
then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is

  
 -37-

 
made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds
Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans under the
Base Rate Option. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Loan to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower
may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 
 2.6.3
Making Swing Loans. 
 So long as PNC elects to make Swing Loans, PNC shall, after receipt by it of a
Swing Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5.2 [Swing Loan Requests], fund such Swing Loan to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 3:00 p.m. on the Borrowing Date. 

2.6.4 Repayment of Loans. 
 The Borrower shall repay all Loans together with all outstanding interest thereon on the Expiration Date. 
 2.7 Revolving Credit Notes and Swing Loan Note. 
 2.7.1
Revolving Credit Note. 
 If requested by any Lender, the obligation of the Borrower to repay the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans made to it by each Lender, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note payable to the order of such Lender in a face amount equal to the Revolving
Credit Commitment of such Lender. The Revolving Credit Loans shall mature, and the Borrower unconditionally agrees to pay in full the unpaid principal amount and all amounts outstanding and unpaid in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender on the Expiration Date. 
 2.7.2 Swing Loan Note.

 The obligation of the Borrower to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Swing Loans made to it by PNC
together with interest thereon shall be evidenced by a Swing Loan Note payable to the order of PNC in a face amount equal to the Swing Loan Commitment. 
 2.8 Use of Proceeds. 
 The proceeds of the Revolving Credit
Loans shall be used (a) to refinance all amounts outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and (b) for general corporate purposes of the Loan Parties, including, without limitation, transaction fees and expenses, Letters of Credit,
working capital, for acquisition, exploration and development of Hydrocarbon Interests, and capital expenditures of the Loan Parties and in accordance with Section 8.1.11 [Use of Proceeds]. 

  
 -38-

 2.9 Borrowing Base. 

(a) During the period from the Closing Date to the date of the initial determination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 2.9, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Lenders agree that the initial amount of the Borrowing Base shall be One Billion Five Hundred Million Dollars ($1,500,000,000).

 (b) Upon each delivery of a Reserve Report pursuant to Section 8.3.10, together with such engineering and
other data from the Borrower as is customarily provided, the Syndication Agent shall, within a reasonable period of time, make a good faith determination of the proposed Borrowing Base, and promptly thereafter the Administrative Agent will propose
by notice in writing to the Lenders such Borrowing Base for acceptance by (i) the Required Borrowing Base Lenders with respect to any reaffirmations or reductions in the Borrowing Base and (ii) the Required Increasing Borrowing Base
Lenders with respect to any increases in the Borrowing Base. If such Borrowing Base, as proposed by the Administrative Agent is accepted by the Applicable Borrowing Base Lenders, then such accepted Borrowing Base shall be communicated by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower on or before 30 days following the date of delivery of such Reserve Report (the “Applicable Date”); provided that if such proposed Borrowing Base is not approved by the Applicable
Borrowing Base Lenders prior to the Applicable Date, then the Applicable Borrowing Base Lenders will establish and agree to a Borrowing Base established using criteria agreed upon by the Applicable Borrowing Base Lenders, and such amount will be
communicated to the Borrower, within 30 days following the Applicable Date. Any Lender that shall fail to reject the proposed Borrowing Base within fifteen (15) days of notice of the proposed Borrowing Base shall be deemed to have approved
the proposed amount of such Borrowing Base. The new Borrowing Base shall become effective as of the date that the Borrower receives notification from the Administrative Agent of the new Borrowing Base, and until that time, the old Borrowing Base
shall continue to be in effect. The Borrowing Base, as determined and established pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be subject, at all times, to the redetermination or adjustment of the then effective Borrowing Base as a result of a
redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.9(c) or 2.9(d) or an adjustment of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 8.2.16(e) [Sale of Proved Reserves; Pooling]. 

(c) Not more than once in any fiscal year, and, in addition, at any time upon notice from the Borrower of a proposed
acquisition which would result in any Permitted Acquisition Lien, the Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Syndication Agent or the Required Borrowing Base Lenders (or the Administrative Agent without such instruction), may request from
the Borrower an Alternate Reserve Report for the purpose of redetermining the Borrowing Base, and the Borrower shall have the right to request a redetermination of the Borrowing Base one time between the delivery of Reserve Reports by sending a
written notice to the Administrative Agent of such request along with an Alternate Reserve Report. In connection with any redetermination of the Borrowing Base related to a delivery of an Alternate Reserve Report, the Syndication Agent shall
make a good faith determination, in a reasonably prompt manner, of a new Borrowing Base, and the Administrative Agent shall propose by notice in writing, in a reasonably prompt manner, such new Borrowing Base to the Lenders, and the Applicable
Borrowing Base Lenders shall agree to review in a reasonably prompt manner, and (if acceptable) approve a new Borrowing Base, which shall become effective upon receipt by the Borrower of notice of such new Borrowing Base. Any Lender that shall fail
to reject the proposed Borrowing 

  
 -39-

 
Base within fifteen (15) days of notice of the proposed Borrowing Base shall be deemed to have approved the proposed amount of such Borrowing Base. In connection with any such
redetermination of the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall deliver promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent an Alternate Reserve Report to the Administrative Agent; provided that the Borrower’s failure to deliver such
Alternate Reserve Report shall not preclude or impact the making of such redetermination of the Borrowing Base by the Administrative Agent or the approval of such Borrowing Base by the Applicable Borrowing Base Lenders. 

(d) At the request of the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent or the Required Borrowing Base Lenders, in their
sole discretion, the Borrowing Base shall be adjusted in conformity with Section 2.9(c) contemporaneously with (i) the sale, transfer, lease, contribution or other conveyance in one or more transactions after the date of the latest
redetermination or adjustment of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this Agreement by any Loan Party to one or more Persons (other than another Loan Party), of Proved Reserves with an aggregate value exceeding 5% of the Borrowing Base then in effect
(whether directly or indirectly by means of the sale of equity interests in a Loan Party or otherwise) pursuant to Section 8.2.16(e) [Sale of Proved Reserves; Pooling] and (ii) the early monetization or early termination of any Hedge
Agreements relied on by the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Lenders in determining the Borrowing Base that has an economic value exceeding five percent (5%) of the Borrowing Base then in effect. 

(e) The Borrowing Base shall represent the good faith determination by the Administrative Agent and the Syndication Agent,
of the loan value of the Borrowing Base Properties based upon, among other things, information contained in the Reserve Report and in accordance with the applicable definitions and provisions herein contained, the Syndication Agent’s standard
policies regarding energy lending, industry lending practices, and consideration for the nature of the facilities established hereunder. The Borrower acknowledges that the determination of the Borrowing Base contains an equity cushion (market value
in excess of the value of all Indebtedness of the Loan Parties), which is acknowledged by the Borrower to be essential for the adequate protection of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. 

2.10 Letter of Credit Subfacility. 
 2.10.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit. 
 (a) On the Closing
Date, the outstanding Letters of Credit previously issued by PNC as an “Issuing Lender” under the Existing Credit Agreement that are set forth on Schedule 2.9 (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) will
automatically, without any action on the part of any Person, be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder for the account of the Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In addition, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, Borrower may request the issuance of a letter of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) on behalf of itself or another Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof by delivering or having such other Loan Party or
such Affiliate deliver to the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a completed application and agreement for letters of credit and other Issuer Documents in such form as the Issuing Lender may specify from time to time by no
later than 11:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Issuing Lender, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. The Borrower shall be a

  
 -40-

 
co-applicant and a co-obligor with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any other Loan Party or such Affiliate, in which case each of the co-applicants and co-obligors will
have joint and several liability with respect to any such Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall be permitted to seek reimbursement of any LC Disbursement directly from the Borrower and shall have no obligation to pursue any
action against any co-applicant. Letters of Credit may be issued in the form of a Standby Letter of Credit or a Commercial Letter of Credit. Letters of Credit shall only be issued in U.S. Dollars. For the avoidance of doubt, the Loan Parties
acknowledge that each Letter of Credit issued for the account of Persons other than the Loan Parties (even though the Borrower is a co-applicant thereon) shall constitute an Investment and Guaranty, without duplication, and shall be subject to the
limitations set forth herein. 
 (b) The Borrower may make a request for the issuance of Letters of Credit at any
time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period. If desired by the Borrower, subject to the terms hereof (including Revolving Facility Usage and the amount of the Borrowing Base), the Borrower may request that Letters of Credit
be issued for the full amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect from time to time. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.10, the Issuing Lender
or any of the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates will issue, amend, extend or renew a Letter of Credit; provided that after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, extension or renewal: 

(i) each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (A) the date
twenty-four (24) months from the date of issuance; provided that any such Letter of Credit may automatically renew if such Letter of Credit has an automatic renewal feature set forth in the terms thereof, unless the Issuing Lender or
Issuing Lender’s Affiliates give notice of non-renewal of such Letter of Credit, or (B) a date that is ten (10) Business Days prior to the Expiration Date; provided that any Letter of Credit scheduled to expire after the
Expiration Date is subject to the requirements in Section 2.10.10 [Cash Collateral Prior to the Expiration Date]; and 
 (ii) the Letter of Credit Obligations shall not exceed an amount equal to (a) the lesser of the total Revolving Credit Commitments or the Borrowing Base, minus (b) the Loans. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue any Letter of Credit if a default of any Lender’s obligations to
fund under Section 2.10.3(b)(i) [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement] exists or any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the Issuing Lender has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such
Lender to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s risk with respect to such Lender. 
 In the event of any
inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Issuer Documents relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. The Issuing Lender shall not amend any
Letter of Credit if the Issuing Lender would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in the amended form under the terms hereof. 

  
 -41-

 2.10.2 Letter of Credit Fees. 

(a) Letter of Credit Fees. With respect to each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the ratable account (determined based upon Ratable Share) of the Lenders a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate, per annum, then in effect (computed on the basis of a year of
360 days and actual days elapsed) on the aggregate daily amount available to be drawn under the Letters of Credit (if any Letters of Credit shall increase in amount automatically in the future, such amount available to be drawn shall currently give
effect to any such future increase), payable in arrears on each Payment Date. 
 (b) Fronting Fees. In
addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed), which fees shall be computed on the daily average amount
available to be drawn under Letters of Credit outstanding (if any Letters of Credit shall increase in amount automatically in the future, such amount available to be drawn shall currently give effect to any such future increase), and shall be
payable in arrears on each Payment Date. 
 (c) Customary Fees and Expenses. The Borrower shall also pay
to the Administrative Agent for the Issuing Lender’s sole account the Issuing Lender’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit, as the Issuing Lender may generally charge or
incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, extension, renewal, amendment, modification (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit. For each Commercial Letter of Credit,
the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account, a negotiation fee of 0.25% of each draw on the Letter of Credit, payable at the time of the drawing. 

2.10.3 Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement. 

(a) Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit (including the Existing Letters of Credit) and, without duplication, each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share
of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively. 
 (b) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower,
provided that any failure of the Issuing Lender to promptly notify the Borrower shall not release the Borrower from its Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lender in immediately available funds, in an amount
equal to the amount so paid by the Issuing Lender (such obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”). Each Reimbursement Obligation shall be received by the Issuing
Lender prior to 12:00 noon on the date that an amount is paid by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”), unless the Borrower was not provided with notice of a Letter of Credit drawing prior
to such time (in which case, the Reimbursement Obligation shall be paid promptly upon notice from the Issuing Lender). 

  
 -42-

 
In the event the Borrower (or any other account party) fails to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon on the Drawing Date:

 (i) with respect to a failure to reimburse any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender will
promptly notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Ratable Share thereof. The Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that Revolving Credit Loans be made
by the Lenders under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Drawing Date with respect to such Letter of Credit, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit] other than any notice requirements. Any
notice given by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10.3(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect
of such notice. Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to this Section 2.10.3(b) make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender an amount in immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the
amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.10.3(b)(ii)) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in that amount and the Reimbursement Obligation
shall be deemed fulfilled. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such amount by no later than 2:00 p.m. on the
Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during
the first three days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. The Administrative Agent will promptly give
notice of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its
obligation under this subparagraph (i). 
 (ii) with respect to any unreimbursed drawing under a Letter of Credit
that is not converted into Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.10.3(b)(i), because of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in
Section 7.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit] other than any notice requirements or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Administrative Agent a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit
Borrowing”) in the amount of such drawing and the Reimbursement Obligation shall be deemed fulfilled. Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum
applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option. Each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10.3(b) shall be paid to the Issuing Lender and shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of
its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a “Participation Advance” from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this clause (ii). 

  
 -43-

 2.10.4 Repayment of Participation Advances. 

(a) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent for its account of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in
reimbursement of any payment made by the Administrative Agent under a Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made a Participation Advance to the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by the
Administrative Agent under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent will pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the
Administrative Agent shall retain the amount of the Ratable Share of such funds of any Lender that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by the Administrative Agent. 

(b) If the Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to any Loan Party, or to a
trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.10.4(a) in reimbursement of a payment made under the
Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, forthwith return to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so
returned by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, at a rate
per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time. 
 2.10.5 Documentation.

 Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of the Issuing Lender’s Issuer Documents and written
regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s own. In the event of a conflict between Issuer Documents and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It
is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s
instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto. 
 2.10.6 Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests. 
 In
determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of
Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. 

2.10.7 Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. 

Each Lender’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit and the Obligations of
the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Lender upon a draw under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.10 under all circumstances,
including the following circumstances: 

  
 -44-

 (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such
Lender may have against the Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; 
 (ii) with respect to Letters of Credit, the failure of any Loan Party or any other Person to comply, in connection with a Letter of Credit Borrowing, with the conditions set forth in Section 2.1
[Commitments], Section 2.5 [Loan Requests], Section 2.6 [Making Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans] or Section 7.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit] or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement for the making of a Revolving Credit
Loan, it being acknowledged that such conditions are not required for the making of a Letter of Credit Borrowing and the obligation of the Lenders to make Participation Advances under Section 2.10.3 [Participations, Disbursements,
Reimbursement]; 
 (iii) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit; 

(iv) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by any Loan Party or any Lender against any beneficiary of a
Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, crossclaim, defense or other right which any Loan Party or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary, successor beneficiary any transferee or assignee of
any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates or any Lender or any other Person or, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions
contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured); 

(v) the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on) or
the form of or lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of any draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document presented under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in
connection with any Letter of Credit, or the transport of any property or provisions of services relating to a Letter of Credit, in each case even if the Issuing Lender or any of the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates has been notified thereof;

 (vi) payment by the Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates under any Letter of Credit against presentation of
a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; 

(vii) the solvency of, or any acts or omissions by, any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or any other Person having a
role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit, or the existence, nature, quality, quantity, condition, value or other characteristic of any property or services relating to a Letter of Credit; 

(viii) any failure by the Issuing Lender or any of the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates to issue any Letter of Credit in
the form requested by any Loan Party, unless the Issuing Lender has received written notice from such Loan Party of such failure within three (3) Business Days after the Issuing Lender shall have furnished such Loan Party a copy of

  
 -45-

 
such Letter of Credit and such error is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice and such Letter of Credit has been returned to such Issuing Lender for
reissuance; 
 (ix) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or
otherwise) or prospects of any Loan Party or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party; 
 (x) any breach of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document by any party thereto; 
 (xi) the occurrence or continuance of an Insolvency Proceeding
with respect to any Loan Party; 
 (xii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Potential Default shall have
occurred and be continuing; 
 (xiii) the fact that the Expiration Date shall have passed or this Agreement or
the Commitments hereunder shall have been terminated; and 
 (xiv) any other circumstance or happening
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
 2.10.8 Indemnity. 

In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 11.3.2 [Indemnification by the Borrower], the Borrower hereby
agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Issuing Lender, in its capacity as issuer of a Letter of Credit, and any of Issuing Lender’s Affiliates that has issued a Letter of Credit from and against any and all claims, demands,
liabilities, damages, Taxes as provided for pursuant to Section 5.8 [Taxes], penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel), which the Issuing
Lender or any of the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Issuing Lender as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (B) the wrongful dishonor by such Issuing Lender or any of such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of
Credit, except if such dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, or any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority. 

2.10.9 Liability for Acts and Omissions. 

As between any Loan Party and the Issuing Lender, or the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates, such Loan Party assumes all
risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for any of the
following including any losses or damages to any Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document

  
 -46-

 
(including all sight drafts, certificates and all other instruments) submitted by any party in connection with any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all
respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Issuing Lender or the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning
or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of
any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of
such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any
messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a
drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising
from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender or the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates, as applicable, including any acts of any Official Body, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Issuing
Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the Issuing Lender from liability for (a) the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in
connection with actions or omissions described in clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence or (b) with respect to any damages suffered by any Loan Party that such Loan Party proves were caused by the Issuing Lender’s willful
failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In no event shall the Issuing Lender or the Issuing
Lender’s Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in
the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Issuing Lender and each of its Affiliates (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Issuing Lender or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of
Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a
Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been
honored, together with any interest paid by the Issuing Lender or its Affiliate; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement
indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying
or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the Issuing Lender or its Affiliate in any way related to any
order issued at the applicant’s 

  
 -47-

 
request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter
of Credit that is the subject to such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and extension and not in
limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender or the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it, the Issuer Documents or any documents
and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Issuing Lender or the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender, unless such action taken or omitted is
found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 2.10.10 Cash Collateral Prior to the Expiration Date. 
 If
any Letter of Credit is outstanding and such Letter of Credit (as it may have previously been extended) will have an expiration date which is after the Expiration Date, then the Borrower shall, on or before the issuance, extension or renewal of such
Letter of Credit, deposit and pledge Cash Collateral for each such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 105% of the face value of such outstanding Letter of Credit plus the amount of fees that would be due under such Letter of Credit through the
expiry date of such Letter of Credit. Such Cash Collateral shall be deposited pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Borrower and shall be maintained in blocked deposit accounts at
the Issuing Lender. The Borrower hereby grants to the Issuing Lender a security interest in all Cash Collateral pledged to the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10.10 or otherwise under this Agreement. The Cash Collateral related to a
particular Letter of Credit shall be released by the Issuing Lender upon termination or expiration of such Letter of Credit and the reimbursement by the Loan Parties of all amounts drawn thereon and the payment in full of all fees accrued thereon
through the date of such expiration or termination. After the Expiration Date, the Borrower shall pay any and all fees associated with any such Letter of Credit with an expiration date that extends beyond the Expiration Date directly to the Issuing
Lender. 
 2.11 Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans. 

PNC may, at its option, exercisable at any time for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each
Lender shall make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Loans, plus, if PNC so requests, accrued interest thereon, provided that no Lender
shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Credit Loans in excess of its Commitment minus its Ratable Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall bear
interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] without regard to any of the requirements of that provision. The Administrative Agent on
behalf of PNC shall provide notice to the Lenders (which may be telephonic or written notice by letter, facsimile or telex) no later than 11:00 a.m. on any Business Day that such Revolving Credit Loans are to be made under this Section 2.11 and
of the apportionment among the Lenders, and the Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Revolving Credit Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 2.5 or Section 7.2 are then

  
 -48-

 
satisfied) to the Administrative Agent on behalf of PNC, no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date. 
 2.12 Increase in Revolving Credit Commitments. 
 (i)
Increasing Lenders and New Lenders. On or after the Closing Date, the Borrower may, up to two times prior to the Expiration Date, request that (1) the current Lenders (each a “Current Lender”) increase their Revolving
Credit Commitments (any Current Lender which elects to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment shall be referred to as an “Increasing Lender”) and/or (2) one or more new lenders (each a “New Lender”) join this
Agreement and provide a Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, subject to the following terms and conditions: 

(A) No Obligation to Increase. No Current Lender shall be obligated to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment,
and any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Current Lender shall be in the sole discretion of such Current Lender; 
 (B) Defaults. There shall exist no Event of Default or Potential Default on the effective date of such increase and after giving effect to such increase; 

(C) Increase in and Aggregate Amount of Revolving Credit Commitments. The amount of the increase in Revolving
Credit Commitments is at least $100,000,000. The increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments made from time to time pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not exceed $250,000,000 in the aggregate without the consent of all Lenders; provided that
no such increase shall cause the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments to exceed the Borrowing Base; 

(D) Resolutions; Opinion; Mortgage Amendments. The Loan Parties shall deliver to the Administrative Agent on or
before the effective date of such increase the following documents in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent: (1) certifications of their corporate secretaries with attached resolutions certifying that the increase in the
Revolving Credit Commitment has been approved by such Loan Parties, (2) an opinion of counsel, which at Borrower’s option, may be in-house counsel, addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders addressing the authorization,
execution and enforceability of the Loan Documents executed in connection with such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, and (3) amendments to the Mortgages executed and delivered by the applicable Loan Parties to the Collateral
Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties to reflect the increase in Revolving Credit Commitments, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Loan Parties shall cause the amendments described in clause
(3) to be properly recorded and/or filed in the applicable filing or recording offices. Notwithstanding the preceding, with respect to each Mortgage existing as of the effective date of such increase, if there shall be delivered to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a written opinion of local counsel in the jurisdiction in which Real Property subject to such Mortgage is located substantially to the effect that no documents, instruments, filings
recordings, re-recordings, re-filings or other actions, including the payment of any mortgage recording 

  
 -49-

 
taxes or similar taxes, are required under applicable Law in order to maintain the continued enforceability, validity or priority of the Lien created by such Mortgage as security for the
Obligations, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, mortgage amendments with respect to Mortgages for Real Property located in such jurisdiction will not be required; 

(E) Notes. The Borrower shall execute and deliver (1) to each Increasing Lender that requests a Revolving
Credit Note a replacement Revolving Credit Note reflecting the new amount of such Increasing Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect to the increase (and the prior Note issued to such Increasing Lender shall be deemed to be
terminated and shall be returned to the Borrower as soon as practicable), and (2) to each New Lender that requests a Revolving Credit Note, a Revolving Credit Note reflecting the amount of such New Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment;

 (F) Approval of New Lenders. Any New Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative
Agent, PNC as Issuing Lender and each other Issuing Lender with outstanding Letters of Credit, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; 
 (G) Increasing Lenders. Each Increasing Lender shall confirm its agreement to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to an acknowledgement in a form acceptable to the Administrative
Agent, signed by it and the Borrower and delivered to the Administrative Agent before the effective date of such increase; and 
 (H) New Lender Joinder. Each New Lender shall execute a New Lender Joinder pursuant to which such New Lender shall join and become a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with a
Revolving Credit Commitment in the amount set forth in such New Lender Joinder. 
 (ii) Syndication. In
the event that the Borrower elects to request an increase of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to mutually develop a syndication strategy, including timelines for commitments. 

(iii) Treatment of Outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit. 

(A) Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans. On the effective date of such increase, the Borrower
shall (a) repay the Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding to each of the Current Lenders to the extent necessary so that after giving effect to the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments each Current Lender will have its Ratable Share
of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, subject to the Borrower’s indemnity obligations under Section 5.9 [Indemnity] and (b) borrow Revolving Credit Loans from Increasing Lenders and New Lenders to the extent necessary so that
after giving effect to the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, each such Lender will have its Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans. To facilitate the foregoing, the Borrower may, subject to its compliance with the other
terms of this Agreement, borrow new Loans on the effective date of such increase. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to update Schedule 1.1(B) to reflect the increase in Revolving Credit Commitments. 

  
 -50-

 (ii) (B) Outstanding Letters of Credit; Repayment of Outstanding Loans;
Borrowing of New Loans. On the effective date of such increase, (a) each Current Lender shall be deemed to have sold its existing participation in each then outstanding Letter of Credit and purchased a participation in each then outstanding
Letter of Credit equal to its Ratable Share of such Letters of Credit, and (b) each New Lender will be deemed to have purchased a participation in each then outstanding Letter of Credit equal to its Ratable Share of such Letter of Credit. All
fees shall accrue and be paid on the Letters of Credit based upon each Lender’s participation therein over the relevant period of time. To the extent necessary to enable each of the Current Lenders and the New Lenders to own a Ratable Share of
the Participation Advances after any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, (a) the Current Lenders will sell a portion of its Participation Advances, and (b) the New Lenders and the Increasing Lenders will acquire Participation
Advances (and will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each selling Lender, in immediately available funds, an amount) equal to its Ratable Share of all outstanding Participation Advances. All fees and interest on Participation
Advances shall be allocated based upon each Lender’s ownership therein from time to time.

in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or LIBOR Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the
Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any
portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than ten (10) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans and provided further that if an
Event of Default or Potential Default exists and is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans and the Required Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under
the LIBOR Rate Option shall be converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrower to pay any indemnity under Section 5.9 [Indemnity] in connection with such conversion. If at any time the designated rate
applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate. 

4.1.1 Revolving Credit Interest Rate Options; Swing Line Interest Rate. 

The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit
Loans: 
 (a) Revolving Credit Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a
year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days 

  
 -51-

 
elapsed) equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or

 (b) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days
and actual days elapsed) equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 Subject to Section 4.3
[Interest After Default], only the Base Rate Option applicable to Revolving Credit Loans shall apply to the Swing Loans. 
 4.1.2 Rate Quotations. 
 The Borrower may call the
Administrative Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
nor affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually in effect when the election is made. 
 4.2 Interest
Periods. 
 At any time when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Option, the Borrower
shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such LIBOR Rate Option by delivering a Loan Request. The notice shall specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate
Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a LIBOR Rate Option: 

4.2.1 Amount of Borrowing Tranche. 

Each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000 and not less than
$5,000,000; and 
 4.2.2 Renewals. 

In the case of the renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest
Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day. 
 4.3
Interest After Default. 
 To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and
until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, and upon written demand by the Required Lenders to the Administrative Agent: 

  
 -52-

 4.3.1 Letter of Credit Fees, Interest Rate. 

The Letter of Credit Fees and the rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.10.2
[Letter of Credit Fees] or Section 4.1 [Interest Rate Options], respectively, shall be increased by 2.0% per annum; 
 4.3.2 Other Obligations. 
 Each other Obligation hereunder
if not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Base Rate Option plus an additional two percent (2.0%) per annum from the time such Obligation becomes due and payable
and until it is paid in full; and 
 4.3.3 Acknowledgment. 

The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 4.3 reflects, among other things,
the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by Borrower upon demand
by Administrative Agent. 
 4.4 LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

 4.4.1 Unascertainable. 

If on any date on which a LIBOR Rate would otherwise be determined, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that:

 (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such LIBOR Rate, or 

(ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to
the LIBOR Rate, the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights]. 
 4.4.2 Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available. 

If at any time any Lender shall have determined that: 

(i) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies has been made impracticable or
unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or 

(ii) such LIBOR Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of the establishment or
maintenance of any such Loan, or 

  
 -53-

 (iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount
in Dollars for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market,

 then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

 4.4.3 Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights. 

In the case of any event specified in Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
so notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 4.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a
certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such
notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (B) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender,
to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Option shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall have later notified the Borrower, or such Lender shall have later notified the Administrative Agent, of the
Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a determination under
Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] and the Borrower has previously notified the Administrative Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification
shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under Section 4.4.2 [Illegality;
Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], the Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification Obligations under Section 5.9 [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Lender to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies, on the date specified in
such notice either convert such Loan to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 5.6 [Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such
Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date. 
 4.5 Selection of Interest Rate Options. 
 If the Borrower
fails to select a new Interest Period to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.2
[Interest Periods], the Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Borrowing Tranche to the Base Rate Option, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period. 

  
 -54-

 5. PAYMENTS 
 5.1 Payments. 
 All payments and prepayments to be made in
respect of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, Administrative Agent’s Fee or other fees or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date when due without presentment, demand,
protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the
Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the account of PNC with respect to the Swing Loans and for the ratable accounts of the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds, and the
Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Lenders in immediately available funds; provided that in the event payments are received by 1:00 p.m. by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments
are not distributed to the Lenders on the same day received by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay the Lenders the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to the amount of such payments for each day held by the
Administrative Agent and not distributed to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the
amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement and shall be deemed an “account stated.” 
 5.2 Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders. 
 Each borrowing shall be
allocated to each Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion to or renewal of any Interest Rate Option and each payment or prepayment by the Borrower with respect to principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of
Credit Fees, or other fees (except for the Administrative Agent’s Fee and the fees payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees]) or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder to the Lenders with respect to
the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Loans, shall (except as otherwise may be provided with respect to a Defaulting Lender and except as provided in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights] in the case of an
event specified in Section 4.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] or Section 5.7 [Increased Costs]) be payable ratably among the Lenders entitled
to such payment in accordance with the amount of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, and other fees or amounts then due to such Lender as set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, each borrowing or
payment or prepayment by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees or other amounts from the Borrower with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to PNC according to Section 2.11 [Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans]. 

5.3 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. 
 If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien, by receipt of voluntary payment, by realization upon security, or by any other non-pro rata source, obtain
payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other 

  
 -55-

 
obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than
its Ratable Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other
obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on
their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that: 
 (i) if any such participations are
purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law
(including court order) to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase; and 
 (ii) the provisions
of this Section 5.3 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Loan Parties pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of the Loan Documents or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for
the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or Participation Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 5.3 shall apply).

 Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable
Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each
Loan Party in the amount of such participation. 
 Any Lender that fails at any time to comply with the
provisions of this Section 5.3 shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender until such time as it performs its obligations hereunder and is not otherwise a Defaulting Lender for any other reason. A Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any
and all payments due to it from the Borrower, whether on account of or relating to outstanding Loans, Letters of Credit, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining non-defaulting Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their respective
Ratable Share of all outstanding Loans and other unpaid Obligations of any of the Loan Parties. The Defaulting Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to distribute such payments to the non-defaulting Lenders in proportion to their
respective Ratable Share of all outstanding Loans and other unpaid Obligations of any of the Loan Parties to which such Lenders are entitled until, as a result of application of the assigned payments to all outstanding Loans and other unpaid
Obligations of any of the Loan Parties to the non-defaulting Lenders, the Lenders’ respective Ratable Share of all outstanding Loans and unpaid Obligations have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such violation of this
Section 5.3. 
 5.4 Presumptions by Administrative Agent. 

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the 

  
 -56-

 
Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance
herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing
Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is
distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation. 
 5.5 Interest Payment Dates. 

Interest on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date. Interest
on Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) Months, also on each date that falls every three
(3) Months after the beginning of such Interest Period. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and
payable (whether on the stated Expiration Date, upon acceleration or otherwise). 
 5.6 Prepayments. 

5.6.1 Right to Prepay. 
 The Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] below,
in Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] and Section 5.9 [Indemnity]). Whenever the Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loans, it shall provide a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day
prior to the date of prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies or no later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of prepayment of Swing Loans and Revolving Credit Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, setting
forth the following information: 
 (i) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment
is to be made; 
 (ii) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the Revolving Credit
Loans and Swing Loans; 
 (iii) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between Loans to which
the Base Rate Option applies and Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies; and 
 (iv) the total principal
amount of such prepayment, which shall not be less than the lesser of (x) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans or (y) $100,000 for any Swing Loan or $1,000,000 for any Revolving Credit Loan. 

  
 -57-

 All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable. The principal amount of the
Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. Except as provided in
Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights], if the Borrower prepays a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing Tranche which the Borrower is prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied (i) first to Swing
Loans and then to Revolving Credit Loans; and (ii) after giving effect to the allocations in clause (i) above first to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, then to Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies. Any prepayment
hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 5.9 [Indemnity]. 
 5.6.2 Replacement of a Lender. 
 In the event any Lender
(i) gives notice under Section 4.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable, Etc.], (ii) requests compensation under Section 5.7 [Increased Costs], or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Official Body for
the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.8 [Taxes], (iii) is a Defaulting Lender, or (iv) is a Non-Consenting Lender referred to in Section 11.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers], then in any such event the Borrower
may, at its election, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, either: 
 (i) prepay the Loans
and Participation Advances of such Lender in whole, together with all interest accrued thereon and any accrued fees and all other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under
Section 5.9 [Indemnity]), and terminate such Lender’s Commitment; or 
 (ii) at its sole expense,
require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.8 [Successors and Assigns]), all of its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that: 

(A) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in
Section 11.8 [Successors and Assigns]; 
 (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to
the outstanding principal of its Loans and Participation Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 5.9 [Indemnity])
from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 
 (C) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.7.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.8 [Taxes],
such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and 

  
 -58-

 (D) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law. 

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each Lender agrees that, if the Borrower elects to replace such Lender in accordance with this Section 5.6.2, it shall promptly execute and deliver
to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to evidence the assignment and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Note (if Notes have been issued in respect of such Lender’s Loans) subject to such Assignment and
Assumption Agreement; provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall not render such assignment invalid, and such assignment shall be recorded in the register if all other requirements of
such assignments have been satisfied. 
 5.6.3 Mitigation Obligation. 

Each Lender agrees that upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to increased costs or other special payments under
Section 4.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], Section 5.7.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or Section 5.8 [Taxes] with respect to such Lender, it will if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject
to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office
suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 5.6.3 shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the
Borrower or any other Loan Party or the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender provided in this Agreement. 
 5.6.4 Mandatory Prepayments. 
 (a) If at any time the
Revolving Facility Usage exceeds the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall take one or more of the actions required by Section 5.11 [Borrowing Base Deficiency], which may include making mandatory prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans.

 (b) If at any time the Revolving Facility Usage is in excess of the Revolving Credit Commitments (as used in
this Section 5.6.4(b), a “deficiency”), the Borrower shall immediately make a principal payment on the Loans sufficient to cause the principal balance of the Loans then outstanding to be equal to or less than the Revolving
Credit Commitments then in effect. If a deficiency cannot be eliminated pursuant to this Section 5.6.4(b) by prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans as a result of outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations, the Borrower shall also deposit cash
collateral with the Administrative Agent, to be held by the Administrative Agent to secure such outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations. 
 (c) All prepayments required pursuant to this Section 5.6.4 shall first be applied among the Interest Rate Options to the principal amount of the Loans subject to the Base Rate Option, then to Loans
subject to a LIBOR Rate Option. In accordance with Section 5.9 [Indemnity], the Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders for any loss or expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against Loans subject
to a LIBOR Rate Option on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period. 

  
 -59-

 5.7 Increased Costs. 

5.7.1 Increased Costs Generally. 

If any Change in Law shall: 
 (a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or
participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate) or the Issuing Lender; 
 (b) subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Loan under the LIBOR
Rate Option made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 5.8 [Taxes] and the imposition of, or any change in the
rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender); or 
 (c) impose on any Lender, the
Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option (or of
maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any
Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Borrower
will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

5.7.2 Capital Requirements. 

If any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Lender or any
lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s
capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such
Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking
into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such
Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional 

  
 -60-

 
amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

5.7.3 Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans. 

A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or
the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 5.7.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or Section 5.7.2 [Capital Requirements] and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The
Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof. 

5.7.4 Delay in Requests. 
 Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.7 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s
right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 5.7 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine
(9) months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s
intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof). 
 5.8 Taxes. 

5.8.1 Payments Free of Taxes. 

Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall
be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such
payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.8) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing
Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law. 
 5.8.2 Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.

 Without limiting the provisions of Section 5.8.1 [Payments Free of Taxes] above, the Borrower shall
timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law. 

  
 -61-

 5.8.3 Indemnification by the Borrower. 

The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Lender, within ten (10) days after
demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.8) paid by the Administrative Agent, such
Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by
the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on
behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 5.8.4 Evidence of
Payments. 
 As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to
an Official Body, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such
payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 5.8.5 Status of Lenders; Refunds.

 Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the Law of the
jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such
payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Notwithstanding the submission of such documentation claiming a reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. withholding tax, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if in its reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under § 1.1441-7(b) of the United States
Income Tax Regulations. Further, the Administrative Agent is indemnified under § 1.1461-1(e) of the United States Income Tax Regulations against any claims and demands of any Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender for the amount of any
tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under § 1441 of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by
applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting
requirements. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident for

additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or
Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Official Body with

 5.9 Indemnity. 

In addition to the compensation or payments required by Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] or Section 5.8 [Taxes],
the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against all liabilities, losses, claims, damages or expenses (including loss of margin, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it
to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract) which such Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of any: 

(a) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies on a day other than the
last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due), 

(b) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan
Requests under Section 2.5 [Loan Requests] or Section 4.2 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 5.6 [Prepayments], 
 (c) default by the Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrower to pay when due (by
acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Commitment Fee or any other amount due hereunder, or 
 (d)
the assignment of any Revolving Credit Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option other than on the last day of the Interest Period as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender]; provided,
however, that with respect to this clause (iv), the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Defaulting Lender whose Revolving Credit Loans are being replaced as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.6.2
[Replacement of a Lender]. 
 If any Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to
time notify the Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by such Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be
necessary to indemnify such Lender for such loss or expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after
such notice is given. 
 5.10 Settlement Date Procedures. 

In order to minimize the transfer of funds between the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may borrow,
repay and reborrow Swing Loans and PNC may make Swing Loans as provided in Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loan Commitment] hereof during the period between Settlement Dates. The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of its Ratable Share of the
total of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swing Loans (each a “Required Share”). On such Settlement Date, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent the amount equal to

  
 -64-

 
the difference between its Required Share and its Revolving Credit Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans. The Administrative Agent shall also effect settlement in accordance with the foregoing sentence on the proposed Borrowing Dates for Revolving Credit Loans and on dates on which
mandatory prepayments are due under Section 5.6.4 [Mandatory Prepayments] and may at its option effect settlement on any other Business Day. These settlement procedures are established solely as a matter of administrative convenience, and
nothing contained in this Section 5.10 shall relieve the Lenders of their obligations to fund Revolving Credit Loans on dates other than a Settlement Date pursuant to Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loan Commitment]. The Administrative Agent may at
any time at its option for any reason whatsoever require each Lender to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and each Lender may at any time require the Administrative
Agent to pay immediately to such Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans. 
 5.11 Borrowing Base Deficiency. 
 (a) If the Revolving
Facility Usage ever exceeds the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such condition from the Administrative Agent, elect by written notice to the Administrative Agent to take one or more of
the following actions to remedy the Borrowing Base deficiency: 
 (i) add additional Gas Properties reasonably
acceptable to the Required Borrowing Base Lenders to the Borrowing Base Properties such that the Borrowing Base deficiency is cured within 30 days after the Borrower’s notice of election; provided that any Lender that shall fail to
reject the proposed addition of Gas Properties to the Borrowing Base Properties within fifteen (15) days of notice of the proposed addition of Gas Properties to the Borrowing Base Properties shall be deemed to have approved the proposed
addition of such Gas Properties to the Borrowing Base Properties; or 
 (ii) either (a) within 30 days
following the delivery of such notice, prepay Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Borrowing Base deficiency or (b) eliminate such Borrowing Base deficiency by making four (4) consecutive, mandatory, equal, monthly
prepayments of principal on the Revolving Credit Loans, each of which shall be in the amount of 1/4th of the amount of such Borrowing Base deficiency, commencing on the first Business Day of the first calendar month following the delivery of such
notice and continuing on the first Business Day of each calendar month thereafter. If the Revolving Credit Loans have been repaid in full and a Borrowing Base deficiency still exists the Borrower shall make deposits into a cash collateral account to
provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Obligations such that the Borrowing Base deficiency is eliminated within a period of 90 days after the Borrower’s written election or such longer period satisfactory to the Required Borrowing
Base Lenders, but in no event to exceed six months, by irrevocably dedicating an amount of the monthly cash flow from the Gas Properties to the cash collateralization of the Letter of Credit Obligations. 

  
 -65-

 (b) Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.11 shall be accompanied
by accrued interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment.

 Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to which it is a party by any Loan Party nor the consummation of the transactions herein or therein contemplated or

interest in a leasehold is less than fully marketable because the consent of the lessor to future assignments has 

  
 -67-

 
not been obtained or (c) as a result of certain title defects and exceptions, if the Loan Parties are working to cure such title defects and exceptions as provided for in Section 8.1.17

(a) Historical Statements. The Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent copies of CONSOL’s audited
consolidated year-end financial statements for and as of the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 (the “Historical Statements”). The Historical Statements were compiled from the books and records maintained by
management of CONSOL and its Subsidiaries, are correct and complete in all material respects and fairly represent the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of CONSOL and its Subsidaries as of the date and for the
period specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. The financial information relating to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as set forth in the footnote “Guarantor Subsidiaries Financial Information”

the intentions of the Borrower’s management, it being understood that such Financial Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Borrower’s control, and that no assurance can be
given that the Financial Projections will be realized. The 

  
 -68-

 
Financial Projections accurately reflect the liabilities of the Loan Parties upon consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby as of the Closing Date. 

(c) Accuracy of Financial Statements. No Loan Party has any material liabilities, contingent or otherwise, or
forward or long-term commitments that are not disclosed in the Historical Statements or in the notes thereto, and except as disclosed therein there are no unrealized or anticipated losses from any commitments of any Loan Party that would reasonably

taken except to the extent that the Loan Parties are not required to perfect Liens in certain Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents or any other Loan Document. All filing fees and other expenses in connection with each such action have been

 (b) Mortgage Liens. Subject to the qualifications and limitations set
forth expressly in the Mortgages and in the proviso set forth in Section 6.1.8(b) [Title to Properties], the Liens granted to the Collateral Trustee pursuant to each Mortgage constitute a valid first priority Lien on the Real Property under

covenants: 
 8.1.1 Preservation of Existence, Etc. 

Each Loan Party shall maintain its legal existence as a corporation, limited partnership or limited liability company and
its license or qualification and good standing in each jurisdiction in which its failure to so qualify, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, except as otherwise expressly permitted in
Section 8.2.6 [Liquidations, Mergers, Consolidations]. 
 8.1.2 Payment of Liabilities, Including Taxes,
Etc. 
 Each Loan Party shall duly pay and discharge all liabilities to which it is subject or which are
asserted against it, promptly as and when the same shall become due and payable (including extensions), including all taxes, assessments and governmental charges upon it or any of its properties, assets, income or profits, prior to the date on which
penalties attach thereto, except to the extent that such liabilities, including taxes, assessments or charges, are being contested in good faith and by appropriate and lawful proceedings diligently conducted and for

  
 -79-

 
which such reserve or other appropriate provisions, if any, as shall be required by GAAP shall have been made, but only to the extent that failure to pay or discharge any such liabilities would
not result in any additional liability which would adversely affect to a material extent the financial condition of the Loan Parties, taken as a whole, or which would materially and adversely affect the Collateral, provided that the Loan
Parties will pay all such liabilities forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to enforce any Lien which may have attached as security therefor or take other action as is required to suspend such enforcement action unless such Lien otherwise
qualifies as a Permitted Lien. 
 8.1.3 Maintenance of Insurance. 

Each Loan Party shall insure its properties and assets against loss or damage by fire and such other insurable hazards
(including flood, fire, property damage, workers’ compensation and public liability insurance) and against other risks (including errors and omissions), and in such amounts as similar properties and assets, as are commonly insured by prudent
companies in similar circumstances carrying on similar businesses, and with reputable and financially sound insurers, including self-insurance to the extent customary. At the request of the Administrative Agent, the Loan Parties shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent (x) annually an original certificate of insurance signed by the Loan Parties’ independent insurance broker describing and certifying as to the existence of the insurance on the Collateral required to be maintained by
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with a copy of the endorsement described in the next sentence attached to such certificate and (y) from time to time a summary schedule indicating all commercial insurance then in force with
respect to each of the Loan Parties. Such policies of insurance shall contain the necessary endorsements or policy language, which shall (i) specify the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties as an additional insured on the
liability policies and mortgagee and lender loss payee as their interests may appear, with the understanding that any obligation imposed upon the insured (including the liability to pay premiums) shall be the sole obligation of the applicable Loan
Parties and not that of the additional insured, (ii) provide that the interest of the Lenders, under the lender’s loss payable endorsement in a form similar to the form provided on the Closing Date, shall be insured regardless of any
breach or violation by the applicable Loan Parties of any warranties, declarations or conditions contained in such policies or any action or inaction of the applicable Loan Parties, (iii) provide a waiver of any right of the insurers to set off
or counterclaim or any other deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise (to the extent that the Loan Parties are able on a commercially reasonable efforts basis to obtain such waiver from the insurers), (iv) provide that no cancellation of
such policies for any reason (including non-payment of premium) nor any change therein shall be effective until at least ten (10) days after notification to the Administrative Agent of such cancellation or change, (v) be primary without
right of contribution of any other liability insurance carried by or on behalf of any additional insureds with respect to their respective interests in the Collateral, and (vi) provide that inasmuch as any liability policy covers more than one
insured, all terms, conditions, insuring agreements and endorsements (except limits of liability) shall operate as if there were a separate policy covering each insured. Each Loan Party shall take all actions required under the Flood Laws to the
extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to assist in ensuring that each Lender is in compliance with the Flood Laws applicable to the Collateral, including, but not limited to, (i) maintaining such flood insurance in full force
and effect and otherwise sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Flood Laws and (ii) delivering to the Administrative Agent evidence of such

in a reasonably diligent fashion, all appropriate repairs thereof. In particular, each Loan Party shall operate or cause to be operated its Borrowing Base Properties in a manner similar to a reasonable and prudent operator. 

(b) Each Loan Party shall (x) maintain in good repair, working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted)
in accordance with the general practice of other businesses of similar character and size, all of those material properties useful or necessary to its business and (y) make or cause to be made, in a reasonably diligent fashion, all appropriate
repairs, renewals or replacements thereof, in each case if the failure to so maintain, repair, renew or replace the same would reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Change. 

8.1.5 Maintenance of Patents, Trademarks, Etc. 

Each Loan Party shall maintain in full force and effect all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights,
licenses, franchises, permits and other authorizations necessary for the ownership and operation of its properties and business if the failure so to maintain the same would constitute a Material Adverse Change. 

8.1.6 Visitation Rights. 
 Each Loan Party shall permit any of the officers or authorized employees or representatives of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, at such Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s expense) to visit and inspect any of its properties during normal business hours and to examine (including, without limitation, any field examinations) and make excerpts from its books
and records and discuss its business affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, all in such detail and at such times and as often as any of the Lenders may reasonably request, provided that each Lender shall provide the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent with reasonable notice prior to any visit or inspection, all such visits and inspections shall be made in accordance with such Loan Party’s standard safety, visit, and inspection procedures and no such visit or
inspection shall interfere with such Loan Party’s normal business operation. In the event any Lender desires to conduct an audit of any Loan Party, such Lender shall make a reasonable effort to conduct such audit contemporaneously with any

time to time in order to preserve, perfect and protect the Liens granted under the Loan Documents and to exercise and enforce the Collateral Trustee’s rights and remedies thereunder with respect to the Collateral. 

8.1.9 [Reserved]. 
 8.1.10 Compliance with Laws. 
 Each Loan Party shall comply
with all applicable Laws, including all Environmental Laws, in all material respects, provided that it shall not be deemed to be a violation of this Section 8.1.10 if any failure to comply with any Law would not result in fines,
penalties, remediation costs, other similar liabilities or injunctive relief which in the aggregate would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. 

8.1.11 Use of Proceeds. 
 The Loan Parties will use the Letters of Credit and the proceeds of the Loans only for (a) refinancing all amounts outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and (b) general corporate
purposes of the Loan Parties, including without limitation, transaction fees and expenses, Letters of Credit, working capital, for acquisition, exploration and development of Hydrocarbon Interests, and capital expenditures of the Loan Parties. The

certification confirming compliance by the Loan Parties with Anti-Terrorism Laws. 
 8.1.14 Compliance with
Leases; Pipeline Agreements and Other Instruments. 
 Each Loan Party will pay or cause to be paid and
discharged all material rentals, delay rentals, royalties, production payment, and indebtedness required to be paid by such party (or required to keep unimpaired in all material respects the rights of such party in Gas Properties) accruing under,
and perform or cause to be performed in all material respects each and every act, matter, or thing required of such party by, each and all of the assignments, deeds, leases, subleases, easements, rights of way, distribution, gathering and other

percent (75%) of the total present value of Proved Reserves and as-extracted collateral related thereto referenced in clause (ii) of this Section 8.1.17(a)) or any other Real Property and (c) any capital stock or other equity
interest in any Person that is not a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower or any other Loan Party. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents to the contrary, with respect to the Proved Gas Collateral, the Loan

Reserve Report delivered after the Closing Date, the Borrower will deliver the Required Title Information covering enough of the Proved Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report that were not included in the
immediately preceding Reserve Report, so that the Administrative Agent shall have received together with the Required Title Information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Required Title Information on at least 75% of the total
present value of the Proved Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report; 

(ii) At any time that the Borrower has provided the Required Title Information for Proved Gas Collateral under
Section 8.1.17(b)(i), the Borrower shall, within sixty (60) days of notice from the Administrative Agent that title defects or exceptions exist with respect to such Proved Gas Collateral, either (A) cure to the reasonable satisfaction

or exceptions except for Permitted Mortgage Liens, or (C) deliver additional Required Title Information so that the Administrative Agent shall have received, together with the Required Title Information previously delivered to the
Administrative Agent, the Required Title Information on at least 75% of the present value of the Proved Reserves evaluated by the then current Reserve Report; 
 (iii) If the Borrower is unable to cure any title defect requested by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to be cured within the sixty (60) day period or the Borrower does not comply with the
requirements to provide the Required Title Information covering 75% of the value of the Proved Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties, such default shall not be an Event of Default, but instead the Syndication Agent and/or the Required
Borrowing Base Lenders shall have the right to exercise the following remedy in their sole discretion from time to time, and any failure to so exercise this remedy at any time shall not be a waiver as to future exercise of the remedy by the
Syndication Agent or the Required Borrowing Base Lenders. To the extent that the Syndication Agent or the Required Borrowing Base Lenders are not satisfied with title to any Proved Gas Collateral after the sixty (60) day period has elapsed,
such unacceptable Proved Gas Collateral shall not count towards the 75% requirement, and the Administrative Agent may send a notice to the Borrower and the Lenders that the then outstanding Borrowing Base shall be reduced by an amount as determined
by the Required Borrowing Base Lenders to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the requirement to provide the Required Title Information on 75% of the present value of the Proved Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties. This new

approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent and/or
Syndication Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent meeting the

collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor
Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such

If PNC resigns as Administrative Agent under this Section 10.6, PNC shall also resign as an Issuing Lender;
provided that if there are any Letters of Credit outstanding with PNC as the Issuing Lender at the time of PNC’s resignation as the Administrative Agent, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the foregoing paragraph,
PNC’s resignation as the Issuing Lender shall not be effective until a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed and the provisions of clause (ii) in the following sentence have been satisfied. Upon the appointment of a successor
Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall (i) succeed to all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of PNC as the retiring Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent and PNC shall be discharged from all of its respective duties

no Lender has any obligation to the Loan Parties or their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein; (iii) the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be
engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from the Loan Parties or their respective Affiliates and the Lenders have no obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary
relationship; and (iv) the Lenders have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice in any jurisdiction with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Loan Parties have consulted their own legal,

 Schedule 7.1.1(d)(i) 

Form of Opinion of Counsel (In House Counsel) 
 April 12, 2011 
  

	TO:	Each of the Lender Parties 

	 	referenced below 

 CNX GAS
CORPORATION. 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 I am issuing this opinion in my capacity as Senior Counsel to CNX Gas Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”). I have acted as counsel to the Borrower and each of the
guarantors identified on Schedule I attached hereto (collectively, the “Guarantors;” the Borrower and the Guarantors are collectively referred to as the “Borrower Parties” and each individually as a
“Borrower Party”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2011 (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower Parties, the various
financial institutions as are or may from time to time become parties thereto as lenders (collectively, the “Lenders”), Bank of America, N.A., in its capacity as syndication agent (the “Syndication Agent”) PNC Bank,
National Association, in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders (the “Administrative Agent;” the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Syndication Agent, the Secured Parties under the Collateral Trust Agreement, and
PNC Bank, National Association, as Corporate Trustee and Collateral Trustee under the Collateral Trust Agreement (the “Collateral Trustee”) are collectively referred to as the “Lender Parties” and each individually
as a “Lender Party”). This opinion letter is furnished to you pursuant to Section 7.1.1(d)(i) of the Credit Agreement. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms used herein have the meanings provided for in the Credit Agreement.

 I. Documents Reviewed 
 In connection with this opinion letter, I have examined the following documents, each of which is dated as of the date of the Credit Agreement unless otherwise indicated: 

(a) the Credit Agreement; 
 (b) the Guaranty Agreement; 
 (c) the CONSOL Guaranty Agreement;

 (d) the Indemnity; 

 (e) the CONSOL Intercompany Subordination Agreement; 

(f) the Intercompany Subordination Agreement; 

(g) the Notes; 
 (h) the Security Documents, including, without limitation, the amendments to the Mortgages; and 
 (i) the Successor Agent Agreement. 
 The documents referred to in clauses (a) through
(i) above are referred to collectively as the “Subject Documents”. 
 In addition I have examined
the following: 
 (i) originals, or copies identified to my satisfaction as being true copies, of such records,
documents and other instruments as I have deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion letter; 
 (ii) the
articles or certificate of incorporation, bylaws and board of directors resolutions, articles or certificate of organization, operating agreement and members’ consent, certificate of limited partnership, limited partnership agreement and
consent of general partner, or partnership agreement and consent of all of the partners, as the case may be, of each such Borrower Party (the “Organizational Documents”); and 

(iii) with respect to each Borrower Party other than Conrhein Coal Company, a certificate issued by the Secretary of State
of the state of organization of such Borrower Party attesting to the continued existence and good standing of such Borrower Party in such state (collectively, the “Good Standing Certificates”). 

II. Assumptions Underlying My Opinions 
 For all purposes of the opinions expressed herein, I have assumed, without independent investigation, that: 
 (a) Factual Matters. With regard to factual matters, to the extent that I deemed appropriate and have reviewed and relied upon certificates and assurances from public officials, all of such
certificates, representations and assurances are accurate; 
 (b) Contrary Knowledge of Addressee. No addressee of this
opinion letter has any actual knowledge that any of my factual assumptions or opinions is inaccurate; 
 (c) Signatures.
The signatures of individuals signing the Subject Documents (other than those of the Borrower Parties and the CONSOL Loan Parties) are genuine and authorized; 

  
 2 

 (d) Authentic and Conforming Documents. All documents submitted to me as originals
are authentic, complete and accurate, and all documents submitted to me as copies conform to authentic original documents, and all documents submitted to us as drafts conform in all material respects to the final executed versions of such documents;

 (e) Capacity of Certain Parties. All parties to the Subject Documents (other than the Borrower Parties) have the
capacity and full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Subject Documents and the documents contemplated thereby or required or permitted to be delivered and performed thereunder; 

III. My Opinions 
 Based on and subject to the foregoing and the other limitations, assumptions, qualifications and exclusions set forth in this opinion letter, I am of the opinion that: 

1. Organizational Status. Each Borrower Party and each CONSOL Loan Party, other than Conrhein Coal Company and Cardinal States
Gathering Company, is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization as of the date set forth in the applicable Good Standing
Certificate. Conrhein Coal Company is a general partnership formed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Cardinal States Gathering Company is a general partnership formed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. 

2. Power and Authority. Each Borrower Party and each CONSOL Loan Party has full power and authority to own and operate its
properties and assets and carry on its business as currently conducted except where the failure to have such power would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. 

3. Authorization, Execution and Delivery. Each Borrower Party and each CONSOL Loan Party has full power to enter into, execute,
deliver and carry out the Subject Documents to which it is a party, to incur the Indebtedness contemplated by the Subject Documents and to perform its Obligations under the Subject Documents to which it is a party, and all such actions have been
duly authorized by all necessary proceedings on its part. The Subject Documents have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrower Parties and the CONSOL Loan Parties to the extent a party thereto. 

4. Subsidiaries. Based solely on my review of the registers of the respective Borrower Parties, each Borrower Party owns the
Subsidiary Shares, Partnership Interests and LLC Interests it purports to own as set forth in Schedule 6.1.2 of the Credit Agreement. I have no knowledge or reason to believe that such registers are not accurate. All Subsidiary Shares,
Partnership Interests and LLC Interests have been validly issued, and all Subsidiary Shares are fully paid and nonassessable. All capital contributions and other consideration required to be made or paid in connection with the issuance of the
Partnership Interests and LLC Interests have been made or paid, as the case may be. Based solely on my review of the registers of the respective Borrower Parties, there are no options, warrants or other rights outstanding to purchase any such
Subsidiary Shares, Partnership Interests or LLC 

  
 3 

 
Interests except as indicated on Schedule 6.1.2 to the Credit Agreement. I have no knowledge or reason to believe that such registers are not accurate. 

5. No Conflicts. Neither the execution and delivery of the Subject Documents to which it is a party by any Borrower Party nor the
consummation of the transactions therein contemplated or compliance with the terms and provisions thereof by any of them will conflict with, constitute a default under or result in any breach of (i) the terms and conditions of the articles or
certificate of incorporation, bylaws, articles or certificate of limited partnership, partnership agreement, certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement or other organizational documents of any Borrower Party or any CONSOL Loan
Party, or (ii) any instrument, Material Contract, order, writ, judgment, injunction or decree to which any Borrower Party or any CONSOL Loan Party is a party or by which it is bound or to which it is subject, or result in the creation or
enforcement of any Lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property (nor or hereafter acquired) of any Borrower Party or any CONSOL Loan Party (other than Liens granted under the Subject Documents), except that certain consents may be required under
the contractual agreements in connection with any attempt to assign such contracts pursuant to the assertion of remedies under the Subject Documents. 
 6. Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or, to my knowledge, threatened against any Borrower Party or any CONSOL Loan Party at law or equity before any
Official Body that individually or in the aggregate would reasonably be expected to result in any Material Adverse Change. To my knowledge, none of the Borrower Parties and none of the CONSOL Loan Parties is in violation of any order, writ,
injunction or any decree of any Official Body that would reasonably be expected to result in any Material Adverse Change. 
 7.
Approvals. Subject to paragraph V-6. below, no consent, approval, exemption, order or authorization of, or registration or filing with, any Official Body or any other Person is required by any Material Contract in connection with the due
execution, delivery and carrying out by any Borrower Party or any CONSOL Loan Party of any Subject Document to which it is a party except in each case as have previously been made or obtained. 

8. Investment Company Act. No Borrower Party and no CONSOL Loan Party is required to register as an “investment company”
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 IV. Exclusions 

I call your attention to the following matters as to which I express no opinion: 

1. Certain Laws. Federal securities laws or regulations, state securities and Blue Sky laws or regulations, federal and state
banking laws and regulations, pension and employee benefit laws and regulations, federal and state environmental laws and regulations, federal and state tax laws and regulations, federal and state health and occupational safety laws and regulations,
building code, zoning, subdivision and other laws and regulations governing the development, use and occupancy of real property, the Hart-Scott-Rodino 

  
 4 

 
Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and other federal and state antitrust and unfair competition laws and regulations, the Assignment of Claims Act of 1940, and the effect of any of the foregoing
on any of the opinions expressed. 
 2. Local Ordinances. The ordinances, statutes, administrative decisions, orders,
rules and regulations of any municipality, county, special district or other political subdivision of any state. 
 V.
Qualifications and Limitations 
 The opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications and
limitations: 
 1. Applicable Law. I am licensed to practice law only in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. These opinions
are limited to the federal law of the United States, the laws of the State of Delaware and the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and I do not express any opinion concerning any other law. 

2. Bankruptcy. These opinions are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency (including, without limitation,
laws relating to preferences, fraudulent transfers and equitable subordination), reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. 
 3. Knowledge. These opinions are based solely upon my current actual knowledge, after due inquiry, and do not include constructive, implied, imputed, presumed, or assumed notice or knowledge of
matters or information. Furthermore, such references mean only that I do not know of any fact or circumstance contradicting the statement that follows. Except as expressly set forth herein, I have not undertaken any independent investigation
(including, without limitation, conducting any review, search or investigation of any public files or records or dockets or any review of the Borrower Parties’ files) to determine the existence or absence of any facts, and no inference as to my
knowledge concerning such facts should be drawn from my reliance on the same in connection with the preparation and delivery of this opinion letter. 
 4. Material Changes to Terms. Provisions in the Subject Documents which provide that any obligations of a Borrower Party thereunder will not be affected by the action or failure to act on the part
of any Lender Party or by an amendment or waiver of the provisions contained in the other Subject Documents might not be enforceable under circumstances in which such action, failure to act, amendment or waiver so materially changes the essential
terms of the obligations that, in effect, a new contract has arisen between the Lender Parties and the Borrower Parties. 
 5.
Mathematical Calculations. I have made no independent verification of any of the numbers, schedules, formulae or calculations in the Subject Documents, and I render no opinion with regard to the accuracy, validity or enforceability of any of
them. 

  
 5 

 6. Certain Material Contracts. With respect the opinions expressed in
Paragraphs III-5 and 7 above, I express no opinion with regard to the Material Contracts set forth on Schedule II attached hereto. 
 VI. Reliance on Opinions 
 The foregoing opinions are being
furnished only to the Lender Parties and only for the purpose referred to in the first paragraph of this opinion letter, and this opinion letter is not to be furnished to any other person or entity or used or relied upon for any other purpose
without my prior written consent. At your request, I hereby consent to reliance hereon by any future successor or assignee of any Lender’s interest in the loans under the Credit Agreement pursuant to an assignment that is made and consented to
(to the extent consent is required) in accordance with the express provisions of Section 11.8 of the Credit Agreement, on the condition and understanding that (i) this letter speaks only as of the date hereof, (ii) I have no
responsibility or obligation to update this letter, to consider its applicability or correctness to any person other than its addressee(s), or to take into account changes in law, facts or any other developments of which I may later become aware,
and (iii) any such reliance by a future assignee must be actual and reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time of assignment, including any changes in law, facts or any other developments known to or reasonably knowable by the
assignee at such time.

(h) No Contravention. Neither the execution and delivery of the Subject Documents by any party thereto nor the performance by any
party thereto with the terms and provisions thereof will conflict with or result in a breach of (i) the certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws, certificate or articles of organization, operating agreement, certificate of limited
partnership, partnership agreement, trust agreement or other similar organizational documents of any such party, (ii) any law or regulation of any jurisdiction applicable to any such party (other than the laws and regulations specified in

validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Subject Document to which such Borrower Party is a party.

consents, authorizations, approvals, filings, permits or certificates are specified in the opinion in paragraph III-3 below) and to the consummation by such parties of the transactions
contemplated thereby have been obtained.

UCC Filing Office and the appropriate fee has been tendered.

effectiveness of the Successor Agent Agreement, Wilmington Trust Company in its capacity as Collateral Trustee under the Collateral Trust Agreement maintains possession of the Instruments and Certificated Securities defined in our opinion 5(b) and
5(c) below. 
 (q) Existing Control Agreements. Each of the deposit account control agreements and securities account
control agreements listed on Schedule III.A. hereto (each a “Control Agreement”) are in full force and effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Successor Agent Agreement. 

III. Our Opinions 
 Based on and subject to the foregoing and the other limitations, assumptions, qualifications and exclusions set forth in this opinion letter, we are of the opinion that: 

1. Enforceability. Each Subject Document to which a Borrower Party or a CONSOL Loan Party is a party constitutes the valid,
binding and enforceable obligation of such Borrower Party or CONSOL Loan Party, as the case may be. 
 2.
Noncontravention. Neither the execution, delivery and performance by any Borrower Party of any Subject Document to which it is a party (including the receipt of extensions of credit thereunder), nor the compliance by any Borrower Party with
the terms and provisions thereof: (a) violates any present law, statute or regulation of the State of New York, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Commonwealth of Virginia or the United States (including Regulation U of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System) that is 

  
 4 

 
applicable to such Borrower Party or such CONSOL Loan Party, as the case may be, or the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the
“DLLCA”); or (b) results in any breach of any of the terms of, or constitutes a default under, any Reviewed Agreement or results in the creation or imposition of any Lien (except as contemplated by the Subject Documents) upon any
assets of such Borrower Party or such CONSOL Loan Party pursuant to the terms of any Reviewed Agreement, 
 3. Governmental
Approvals. No consent, approval, or authorization of, or filing with, any governmental authority of the State of New York, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Commonwealth of Virginia, or the United States or under the DGCL or the DLLCA is
required for (a) the due execution, delivery and performance by any Borrower Party or any CONSOL Loan Party of any Subject Document to which it is a party or (b) the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Subject Document to
which any Borrower Party or any CONSOL Loan Party is a party, except (i) in each case as have previously been made or obtained and (ii) filings and recordings which are necessary to perfect the security interests granted under the Security
Documents (including, without limitation, the filing of the Mortgages and the UCC Amendments). 
 4. Creation of Security
Interests. (a) The Security Agreement is effective to create a valid security interest in favor of the Collateral Trustee (for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Collateral Trust Agreement) (including the holders of any
new Loans)) to secure the indebtedness described therein, in all right, title and interest of each Borrower Party that is a party to the Security Agreement in and to all personal property included in the term “Collateral” (as defined in
the Security Agreement) in which a security interest can be granted under Article 9 of the New York UCC (collectively, the “Article 9 Collateral”). 
 (b) The Pledge Agreement is effective to create a valid security interest in favor of the Collateral Trustee (for the benefit of the Secured Parties (including the holders of any new Loans)) to secure the
indebtedness described therein, in all right, title and interest of each Borrower Party that is a party to the Pledge Agreement in the Pledged Collateral (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) in which a security interest can be granted under Article
9 of the New York UCC (the Article 9 Collateral and the Pledged Collateral are collectively referred to as the “Subject Collateral”). 
 5. Perfection. (a) Each UCC Amendment is in appropriate form for recording in the corresponding UCC Filing Office. Upon such recording, the Collateral Trustee will continue to have a perfected
security interest in those items of the Subject Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected under Article 9 of the Delaware UCC, the Pennsylvania UCC, the Virginia UCC, or the Tennessee UCC, as applicable, by the filing of a financing
statement in the UCC Filing Offices. 
 (b) Upon the effectiveness of the Successor Agent Agreement, through possession by
Wilmington Trust Company as bailee of the Collateral Trustee, and thereafter by delivery from Wilmington Trust Company to the Collateral Trustee (for the benefit of the Secured Parties (including the holders of any new Loans)), and the Collateral
Trustee’s taking possession (within the meaning of Section 9-313(a) of the New York UCC), in the State of New York of that portion of the Article 9 Collateral consisting of certificated securities (within the meaning of section 8-102(a)(4)
of the New York UCC) in registered form, issued or indorsed in the name of the Collateral Trustee or in blank by an effective endorsement, or accompanied by undated stock powers with respect thereto duly indorsed in blank by an effective endorsement
(the “New York Delivered Certificated Securities”), the Collateral Trustee (for the benefit of the 

  
 5 

 
Secured Parties (including the holders of any new Loans)) will have a perfected security interest in the New York Delivered Certificated Securities; and (ii) upon delivery to the Collateral
Trustee, (for the benefit of the Secured Parties (including the holders of any new Loans)), and the Collateral Trustee’s taking possession (within the meaning of Section 9-313(a) of the Delaware UCC), in the State of Delaware of that
portion of the Article 9 Collateral consisting of certificated securities (within the meaning of section 8-102(a)(4) of the Delaware UCC) in registered form, issued or indorsed in the name of the Collateral Trustee or in blank by an effective
endorsement, or accompanied by undated stock powers with respect thereto duly indorsed in blank by an effective endorsement (the “Delaware Delivered Certificated Securities”; the New York Delivered Certificated Securities and the
Delaware Delivered Securities collectively the “Certificated Securities”), the Collateral Trustee (for the benefit of the Secured Parties (including the holders of any new Loans)) will have a perfected security interest in the
Delaware Delivered Certificated Securities. 
 (c) Upon (i) the effectiveness of the Successor Agent Agreement, and
(ii) the acknowledgement of each respective depository bank or securities intermediary of receipt of the appropriate notice of assignment listed on Schedule III.B. hereto (each an “Assignment Notice”), the Collateral Trustee will have
a perfected security interest in the applicable deposit account or securities account described in the Control Agreement to which such relevant Notice relates.

 V. Qualifications and Limitations 
 The opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications and limitations: 
 (a) Applicable Law. Our opinions are limited to the federal law of the United States, and the laws of the State of New York, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Commonwealth of Virginia, the
DGCL, the DLLCA, the Delaware UCC, and the Tennessee 

  
 8 

 
UCC, and we do not express any opinion concerning any other law. With respect to our opinion 5(a) and the applicable provisions of the Delaware UCC and the Tennessee UCC, we have, with your
permission, confined our investigation of the laws of such jurisdiction to an examination of the relevant provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in such jurisdiction as set forth in a standard compilation such as the CCH Secured
Transactions Guide. 
 (b) Bankruptcy. Our opinions are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency (including, without limitation, laws relating to preferences, fraudulent transfers and equitable subordination), reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. 

(c) Equitable Principles. Our opinions are subject to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law), including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing. In applying such principles, a court, among other things, might limit the availability of specific equitable
remedies (such as injunctive relief and the remedy of specific performance), might not allow a creditor to accelerate maturity of debt or exercise other remedies upon the occurrence of a default deemed immaterial or for non-credit reasons or might
decline to order a debtor to perform covenants in a Subject Document. Further, a court may refuse to enforce a covenant if and to the extent that it deems such covenant to be violative of applicable public policy. 

(d) Unenforceability of Certain Provisions. Certain of the provisions contained in the Subject Documents (including, without
limitation, provisions that (i) require waivers or amendments to be made only in writing, (ii) purport to waive the right of’ statutory or equitable redemption or (iii) provide for the exercise of self-help or other remedies
without judicial process) may be unenforceable or ineffective, in whole or in part, but the inclusion of such provisions does not render any Subject Document invalid as a whole, and each of the Subject Documents contains, in our opinion, adequate
remedial provisions for the ultimate practical realization of the principal benefits purported to be afforded by such Subject Document, subject to the other qualifications contained in this opinion letter. We note, however, that the unenforceability
of such provisions may result in delays in enforcement of the rights and remedies of the Lender Parties under the Subject Documents, and we express no opinion as to the economic consequences, if any, of such delays. 

(e) Choice of New York Law and Forum. To the extent that any opinion relates to the enforceability of the choice of New York law
and choice of New York forum provisions of any Subject Document, our opinion is rendered in reliance upon N.Y. Gen. Oblig. Law §§ 5-1401 and 5-1402 (McKinney 2001) and N.Y. CPLR 327(b) (McKinney 2001) and is subject to the qualification
that such enforceability may be limited by public policy considerations of any jurisdiction, other than the courts of the State of New York, in which enforcement of such provisions, or of a judgment upon an agreement containing such provisions, is
sought. 
 (f) Knowledge. Whenever our opinions or qualifications are stated to be “to our knowledge” or
“known to us” (or words of similar import), it means the actual knowledge of the particular Reed Smith LLP attorneys who have provided substantive representation of the Borrower Parties or the CONSOL Loan Parties. Except as expressly set
forth herein, we have not undertaken any independent investigation (including, without limitation, conducting any review, search or investigation of any public files or records or dockets or any review of our files) to determine the existence or
absence of any facts, and no inference as to our knowledge concerning such facts should be drawn from our reliance on the same in connection with the preparation and delivery of this opinion letter. 

  
 9 

 (g) Noncontravention and Governmental Approvals. With respect to the opinions
expressed in paragraphs III-2 and III-3, our opinions are limited (i) to our actual knowledge, if any, of the Borrower Parties’ specially regulated business activities and properties based solely upon the Borrower’s
Certificate in respect of such matters and without any independent investigation or verification on our part and (ii) to our review of only those laws and regulations that, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type
contemplated by the Subject Documents. 
 (h) Use of Proceeds. With respect to our opinion in paragraph III-2 as
it relates to Regulations T, U and X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, we have assumed that the Borrower will comply with the provisions of the Credit Agreement relating to the use of proceeds. 

(i) Material Changes to Terms. Provisions in the Subject Documents which provide that any obligations of a Borrower Party
thereunder will not be affected by the action or failure to act on the part of any Lender Party or by an amendment or waiver of the provisions contained in the other Subject Documents might not be enforceable under circumstances in which such
action, failure to act, amendment or waiver so materially changes the essential terms of the obligations that, in effect, a new contract has arisen between the Lender Parties and the Borrower Parties. 

(j) Incorporated Documents. This opinion does not relate to (and we have not reviewed) any documents or instruments other than the
Subject Documents and the Reviewed Agreements, and we express no opinion as to such other documents or instruments (including, without limitation, any documents or instruments referenced or incorporated in any of the Subject Documents and the
Reviewed Agreements) and any such other documents and instruments and the effect the same may have on the foregoing opinions. 

(k) Mathematical Calculations. We have made no independent verification of any of the numbers, schedules, formulae or calculations
in the Subject Documents, and we render no opinion with regard to the accuracy, validity or enforceability of any of them. 

(l) Security Interest in Proceeds. The continuation and perfection of the Collateral Trustee’s security interest in the
proceeds of the Subject Collateral are limited to the extent set forth in Section 9-315 of the UCC. 
 (m) Actions to
Continue Effectiveness. We call to your attention to the following. In general, under Section 9515 of the UCC, a financing statement is effective for a period of five years from the date of filing. The effectiveness of a filed financing
statement lapses upon the expiration of such period unless a continuation statement is filed prior to such lapse in accordance with the UCC. Upon such lapse the security interest in question would, in general, become unperfected. In general, a
continuation statement may be filed within six months prior to the expiration of such five year period. Upon timely filing of a continuation statement in accordance with the UCC, the effectiveness of the original financing statement is continued for
five years after the last date on which the filing was effective, whereupon such filing would lapse in the same manner unless another continuation is filed prior to such lapse. Succeeding continuation statements may be filed in the same way to
continue the effectiveness of the financing statement. 
 (n) After-Acquired Property. A security interest in any Subject
Collateral that constitutes after-acquired collateral does not attach until the applicable Borrower Party has rights in such after-acquired collateral. 

  
 10 

 (o) Property Acquired after Commencement of Bankruptcy Case. In the case of property
which becomes part of the Subject Collateral after the date hereof, Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) limits the extent to which property acquired by a debtor after the
commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code may be subject to a security interest arising from a security agreement entered into by the debtor before the commencement of such case. 

(p) After-Acquired Property as Voidable Preference. In the case of property which becomes part of the Subject Collateral after the
date hereof, Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a transfer is not made until the debtor has rights in the property transferred, so a security interest in after-acquired property which is security for other than a contemporaneous
advance may be treated as a voidable preference under the conditions (and subject to the exceptions) provided by Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code. 
 (q) Rights of Third Parties in Certain Collateral. The rights of the Collateral Trustee with respect to Subject Collateral consisting of accounts, instruments, licenses, leases, contracts or other
agreements will be subject to the claims, rights and defenses of the other parties thereto against the Borrower Parties. 
 (r)
Licenses or Permits as Collateral. In the case of any Subject Collateral consisting of licenses or permits issued by governmental authorities or other persons or entities, the Borrower Parties may not have sufficient rights therein for the
security interest of the Collateral Trustee to attach and, even if the Borrower Parties have sufficient rights for the security interest of the Collateral Trustee to attach, the exercise of remedies may be limited by the terms of the license or
permit or require the consent of the governmental authority or other person or entity issuing such license or permit. 
 (s)
Pledged Securities. Our opinions expressed in paragraph III-5(b) as to the perfection of the security interest in Certificated Securities by possession is subject to the following qualifications: 

(i) we express no opinion as to the perfection by possession of the security interest of the Collateral Trustee in any
portion of the Certificated Securities, the continuous possession of which is not maintained by the Collateral Trustee in the State of New York or the State of Delaware. In addition, we call to your attention that perfection (and the effect of
perfection and non-perfection) of the security interest of the Collateral Trustee in the Certificated Securities may be governed by laws other than those of the New York UCC or the Delaware UCC to the extent the Certificated Securities become
located in a jurisdiction other than the State of New York or the State of Delaware; and 
 (ii) we call to your
attention that in the case of the issuance of additional shares or other distributions in respect of the Pledged Securities, the security interests of the Collateral Trustee therein will be perfected by possession only if possession thereof is
obtained or other action appropriate to the nature of the distribution is taken, in either case, in accordance with the provisions of the New York UCC or the Delaware UCC and other applicable law. 

(t) Effective Limits on Remedies. Notwithstanding that Sections 9-406(d), 9-407(a) 9-408(a) and 9-409(a) of the New York UCC
render ineffective terms in agreements which prohibit, restrict or require the consent of the person obligated thereon to the assignment, 

  
 11 

 
transfer of, or the creation, attachment, perfection or enforcement of a security interest therein or which provide that any such assignment, transfer, creation, attachment or enforcement gives
rise to a default, breach, right of recoupment, claim, defense, termination, right of termination or remedy thereunder, such ineffectiveness may nonetheless be limited as provided in Sections 9-408(c) and 9-409(b) of the New York UCC. 

(u) Other UCC Limitations. Such opinions may also be limited by Subpart 3 and Subpart 4 of Part 3 of Article 9 of the UCC.

 VI. Reliance on Opinions 
 The foregoing opinions are being furnished only to the Lender Parties and only for the purpose referred to in the first paragraph of this opinion letter, and this opinion letter is not to be furnished to
any other person or entity or used or relied upon by any other person or entity or for any other purpose without our prior written consent. At your request, we hereby consent to reliance hereon by any future successor or assignee of any
Lender’s interest in the loans under the Credit Agreement pursuant to an assignment that is made and consented to in accordance with the express provisions of Section 11.8 of the Credit Agreement, on the condition and understanding that
(i) this letter speaks only as of the date hereof, (ii) we have no responsibility or obligation to update this letter, to consider its applicability or correctness to any person other than its addressee(s), or to take into account changes
in law, facts or any other developments of which we may later become aware, and (iii) any such reliance by a future assignee must be actual and reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time of assignment, including any changes in law,
facts or any other developments known to or reasonably knowable by the assignee at such time.

Reference is made to the opinion letter of Reed Smith LLP (the “Opinion Letter”) delivered in connection with the

Suretyship (this “Guaranty”), dated as of April 12, 2011, is jointly and severally given by EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED and EACH OF THE OTHER PERSONS which becomes a Guarantor hereunder from time to time (each a
“Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”) in favor of PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, in its capacity as the administrative agent for the Lenders, as defined below (the “Administrative
Agent”), in connection with that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among, CNX Gas Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors now or hereafter party thereto, the
Administrative Agent, Bank of America, N.A. as Syndication Agent, and the Lenders now or hereafter party thereto (as amended, restated, modified, or supplemented from time to time hereafter, the “Credit Agreement”). Capitalized
terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them by the Credit Agreement and the rules of construction set forth in Section 1.2 [Construction] of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this Guaranty.

 1. Guarantied Obligations. To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to make loans and grant other financial
accommodations to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally unconditionally, and irrevocably, guaranties to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and becomes surety, as though it was a primary obligor
for, the full, strict and indefeasible payment and performance when due (whether on demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise and including any amounts which would become due but for the operation of an automatic stay under the
federal bankruptcy code of the United States or any similar laws of any country or jurisdiction) of: (i) all Obligations, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness from time to
time of the Borrower or any other Guarantor to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders, under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service
Product, whether for principal, interest, fees, indemnities, expenses, or otherwise, and all refinancings or refundings thereof, whether such obligations, liabilities, or indebtedness are direct or indirect, secured or unsecured, joint or several,
absolute or contingent, due or to become due, whether for payment or performance, now existing or hereafter arising (and including obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising or accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, or similar proceeding with respect to any of the Loan Parties or that would have arisen or accrued but for the commencement of such proceeding (including without limitation, interest after default), even if the claim for such
obligation, liability or indebtedness is not enforceable or allowable in such proceeding, and including all Obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising from any extensions of credit under or in connection with the Loan Documents, or any
Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, from time to time, regardless of whether any such extensions of credit are in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, or any Specified
Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, or are made in circumstances in which any condition to extension of credit is not satisfied), (ii) any obligation or liability of any of the Loan Parties arising out of
overdrafts on deposits or other accounts or out of electronic funds (whether by wire transfer or through automated clearing houses or otherwise) or out of the return unpaid of, or other failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to receive
final payment for, any check, item, instrument, payment order or other deposit or credit to a deposit or other account, or out of the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s non-receipt of or inability to collect funds or otherwise not
being made whole in connection with depository or other similar arrangements, and (iii) any amendments, extensions, renewals 

 
and increases of or to any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing obligations, liabilities and indebtedness are referred to herein collectively as the “Guarantied Obligations”
and each as a “Guarantied Obligation”). Without limitation of the foregoing, any of the Guarantied Obligations shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty if the Administrative Agent or any of
the Lenders (or any one or more assignees or transferees thereof) from time to time assigns or otherwise transfers all or any portion of their respective rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any
other Person as provided by the Loan Documents, by the Specified Hedge Agreements or by the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees as follows: 

2. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby promises to pay and perform all such Guarantied Obligations when due and payable, after the
expiration of any applicable cure periods, immediately upon demand of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or any one or more of them. All payments made hereunder shall be made by each Guarantor in immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars and
shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, withholding, or other deduction of any nature. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require
that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender to any of the security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender in
favor of any Borrower or any other person. 
 3. Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall
not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by any failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by any Lender, the Administrative Agent, or the Borrower or any other obligor on any of the Guarantied Obligations, or by any
other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity, except
for, and to the extent of, payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each of the Guarantors agrees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, the Specified
Hedge Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby consents to, at any time and from time to time, and the joint and several obligations of each
Guarantor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following: 
 (a) Any
lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Loan Document or any of the

Guarantied Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or in circumstances in which any
condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy

(d) Any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, waiver, supplement, termination, subordination, compromise, release, surrender, loss,
or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights, or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful

the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations. As used in this Guaranty, “direct or indirect security” for the
Guarantied Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct
or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person; 
 (e)
Any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of, the Borrower or any other Person; any bankruptcy,

other than, and to the extent of, payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; or any discharge by operation of law or release of the Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the
Guarantied Obligations; and 
 (g) Any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether
known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of, any Guarantor, a guarantor or a surety, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations in
full. 
 Each Guarantor acknowledges, consents, and agrees that new Guarantors may join in this Guaranty pursuant to
Section 8.2.9 [Subsidiaries, Partnerships and Joint Ventures] of the Credit Agreement and each Guarantor affirms that its obligations shall continue hereunder undiminished. 

  
 -3-

 4. Waivers, etc. Each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense to (other than, and
to the extent of, the defense of prior payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations) or limitation on its obligations under this Guaranty arising out of or based on any event or circumstance referred to in Section 3 hereof. Without
limitation and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives each of the following: 
 (a) Except as
may be expressly contemplated by the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, all notices, disclosures and demand of any nature which otherwise might be required
from time to time to preserve intact any rights against any Guarantor, including the following: any notice of any event or circumstance described in Section 3 hereof; any notice required by any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in
effect in any jurisdiction; any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any notice of the incurrence of any Guarantied Obligation; any notice of any default or any
failure on the part of the Borrower or any other Person to comply with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; and any notice of any information pertaining to
the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrower or any other Person; 
 (b) Any right
to any marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against the Borrower or any other Person in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or to the exercise against the Borrower or any other Person of any
other right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied
Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender

 (c) Any

election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (including but not limited to commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of
collateral security for any of the Guarantied Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, to seek a deficiency against the Borrower or any other Person or which
otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Guarantied Obligations; and 
 (d) Any and all defenses it may now or hereafter have
based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like. 
 5. Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a
continuing obligation of the Guarantors and shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that no Guarantied Obligations may be outstanding from time to time and notwithstanding any other event or circumstance. Upon Payment In Full, and
provided that none of the other obligations referred to in Section 1(ii) hereof are then in default, this Guaranty shall terminate; provided, however, that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, any
time any payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations is rescinded, recouped, avoided, or must otherwise be returned or released by any Lender or the Administrative Agent upon or during the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of, or any
similar proceeding affecting, the Borrower or for any other reason whatsoever, all as though such payment had not been made and was due and owing. 

  
 -4-

 6. Subrogation. Each Guarantor waives and agrees that it will not exercise any rights
against the Borrower or any other Guarantor arising in connection with, or any Collateral securing, the Guarantied Obligations (including rights of subrogation, contribution, and the like) until Payment In Full. If any amount shall be paid to any
Guarantor by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Guarantor by virtue of any right of subrogation, contribution, or the like, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and shall be held in trust for the
benefit of, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit
Agreement. 
 7. No Stay. Without limitation of any other provision of this Guaranty, if any declaration of default or
acceleration or other exercise or condition to exercise of rights or remedies under or with respect to any Guarantied Obligation shall at any time be stayed, enjoined, or prevented for any reason (including but not limited to stay or injunction
resulting from the pendency against the Borrower or any other Person of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding), the Guarantors agree that, for the purposes of this Guaranty and their obligations hereunder, the Guarantied
Obligations shall be deemed to have been declared in default or accelerated, and such other exercise or conditions to exercise shall be deemed to have been taken or met. 
 8. Taxes. 
 (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or
on account of any obligation of any of the Guarantors hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Guarantor shall be
required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Paragraph) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Guarantor shall make
such deductions and (iii) such Guarantor shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by any Guarantor. Without limiting the provisions of Paragraph (a) above, each Guarantor shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance
with applicable Law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Guarantors. Each Guarantor shall indemnify the Administrative Agent,
each Lender and the Issuing Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable
under this Paragraph) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Guarantor by a Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Certificate. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Guarantor to an Official Body, such Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, the
original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy 

  
 -5-

 
of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e) Tax Provisions Incorporated By Reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any and all payments by or on account of any
obligation of the Guarantors hereunder, the provisions of Section 5.8 [Taxes] of the Credit Agreement are cross-referenced, incorporated herein and shall apply to the Administrative Agent, each Lender, Issuing Lender and any Guarantor as if
such Guarantor is, in fact, the Borrower; provided, however, that no Guarantor shall have any obligation under this Section 8 [Taxes] in excess of such Guarantor’s Guarantied Obligations. 

9. Intentionally Deleted. 
 10. Notices. Each Guarantor agrees that all notices, statements, requests, demands and other communications under this Guaranty shall be given to such Guarantor at the address set forth on a
Schedule to, or in a Guarantor Joinder given under, the Credit Agreement and in the manner provided in Section 11.5.1 [Notices Generally] of the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may rely on any notice (whether or not
made in a manner contemplated by this Guaranty) purportedly made by or on behalf of a Guarantor, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no duty to verify the identity or authority of the Person giving such notice. 

11. Counterparts; Telecopy Signatures. This Guaranty may be executed by different parties hereto on any number of separate
counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page by telecopy or electronic signature delivery
system (in either case in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed signature page to this Guaranty. 
 12. Setoff, Default Payments by Borrower. 
 (a) In the event that at any
time any obligation of the Guarantors now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty shall have become due and payable, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall have the right from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor,
to set off against and apply to such due and payable amount any obligation of any nature of any Lender or the Administrative Agent, or any subsidiary or affiliate of any Lender or the Administrative Agent, to any Guarantor, including but not limited
to all deposits (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally credited, however evidenced) now or hereafter maintained by any Guarantor with the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any subsidiary or affiliate
thereof. Such right shall be absolute and unconditional in all circumstances and, without limitation, shall exist whether or not the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, shall have given any notice or made any demand under this
Guaranty or under such obligation to the Guarantor, whether such obligation to the Guarantor is absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured (it being agreed that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may deem such obligation to
be then due and payable at the time of such setoff), and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any collateral, guaranty, or other direct or indirect security or right or remedy available to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders. The
rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section are in addition to such other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff and banker’s lien) which the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or
any of them, may have, and nothing in this Guaranty or in any other Loan Document, Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product shall be deemed a waiver of or restriction on the right of setoff or banker’s lien
of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any affiliate or subsidiary of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders and any holder of a

  
 -6-

 
participation in any obligation of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, shall have the same rights of setoff as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as provided in this Section (regardless
whether such affiliate or participant otherwise would be deemed a creditor of any Guarantor). 
 (b) Upon the occurrence and
during the continuation of any default under any Guarantied Obligation, if any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or for the account of the Borrower, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of each Lender and the Administrative
Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guarantied Obligations when due and payable. 
 13. Construction. The section and other headings contained in this Guaranty are for reference purposes only and shall not affect interpretation of this Guaranty in any respect. This Guaranty has
been fully negotiated between the applicable parties, each party having the benefit of legal counsel, and accordingly neither any doctrine of construction of guaranties or suretyships in favor of the guarantor or surety, nor any doctrine of
construction of ambiguities in agreement or instruments against the party controlling the drafting thereof, shall apply to this Guaranty. 
 14. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, or any of them, and their successors and assigns except that no Guarantor may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein other than assignments and transfers permitted by the Credit Agreement.
Without limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them (and any successive assignee or transferee), from time to time may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations under the
Loan Documents (including all or any portion of any commitment to extend credit), or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other Person as provided and permitted by the Credit Agreement and such Guarantied Obligations (including any Guarantied
Obligations resulting from extension of credit by such other Person under or in connection with the Loan Documents, Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products) shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled
to the benefit of this Guaranty, and to the extent of its interest in such Guarantied Obligations such other Person shall be vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in this Guaranty or
otherwise. 
 15. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 

(a) Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State
of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. 
 (b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF VENUE; SERVICE

 (ii) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE

 -8-

 
DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 16. Severability; Modification to Conform to Law. 
 (a) The provisions of
this Guaranty are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Guaranty shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction. 

(b) Without limitation of the preceding Subsection (a), to the extent that applicable law (including applicable laws pertaining to
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent or preferential transfer) otherwise would render the full amount of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder invalid, voidable, or unenforceable on account of the amount of a Guarantor’s aggregate liability
under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the aggregate amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders or such Guarantor or any
other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding, which (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) may be an amount which is equal to the
greater of: 
 (i) the fair consideration actually received by such Guarantor under the terms and as a result of
the Loan Documents, the Specified Hedge Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, and the value of the benefits described in Section 19(b) hereof, including (and to the extent not inconsistent with applicable federal
and state laws affecting the enforceability of guaranties) distributions, commitments, and advances made to or for the benefit of such Guarantor with the proceeds of any credit extended under the Loan Documents, the Specified Hedge Agreements or
Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or 
 (ii) the excess of (1) the amount of the fair value
of the assets of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty as determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof, over (2) the amount of all
liabilities of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty, also as determined on the basis of applicable federal and state laws governing the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section or elsewhere in this Guaranty, this Guaranty shall be presumptively valid
and enforceable to its full extent in accordance with its terms, as if this Section (and references elsewhere in this Guaranty to enforceability to the fullest extent permitted by law) were not a part of this Guaranty, and in any related litigation
the burden of proof shall be on the party asserting the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof or asserting any limitation on any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as to each element of such assertion. 

17. Additional Guarantors. At any time after the initial execution and delivery of this Guaranty to the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders, additional Persons may become parties to this Guaranty and thereby acquire the duties and rights of being Guarantors hereunder by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a Guarantor Joinder pursuant to the
Credit Agreement. No notice of the addition of any Guarantor shall be required to be given to any pre-existing Guarantor and each Guarantor hereby consents thereto. 
 18. Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations and additional liabilities of each and every Guarantor under this Guaranty are joint and several obligations of the Guarantors, and each Guarantor
hereby waives to the full extent permitted by law any defense it may otherwise have to the 

  
 -9-

 
payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations that its liability hereunder is limited and not joint and several. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers and
those set forth below serve as a material inducement to the agreement of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to make the Loans, and that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are relying on each specific waiver and all such waivers in
entering into this Guaranty. The undertakings of each Guarantor hereunder secure the obligations of itself and the other Guarantors. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this
Guaranty against any Guarantor without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Guarantor and such an election by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, or any of them, may elect to take against any Guarantor. Each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby reserve all rights against each Guarantor. 
 19. Receipt of Credit Agreement, Other Loan Documents, Benefits. 
 (a) Each
Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any Specified Hedge Agreement and any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, and each Guarantor certifies that the
representations and warranties made therein with respect to such Guarantor are true and correct. Further, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees to perform, comply with, and be bound by all of the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other
Loan Documents to the extent applicable to such Guarantor. 
 (b) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges, represents, and warrants
that it receives synergistic benefits by virtue of its affiliation with the Borrower and the other Guarantors and that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement and that such
benefits, together with the rights of contribution and subrogation that may arise in connection herewith are a reasonably equivalent exchange of value in return for providing this Guaranty. 

20. Release of Guarantor. In the event that all of the capital stock or other ownership interests of any Guarantor is sold or
otherwise disposed of or liquidated and, if required, the consent of the Administrative Agent (as contemplated by Section 10.10 [Authorization to Release Collateral and Guarantors, Etc.] of the Credit Agreement) or the Lenders (as contemplated
by Section 11.1.3 [Release of Collateral or Guarantor] of the Credit Agreement), has been obtained, or if such Guarantor is to be dissolved as permitted under the Credit Agreement, such Guarantor shall, upon consummation of such sale or other
disposition, or immediately prior to such dissolution, be released from this Guaranty automatically and without further action, and this Guaranty shall, as to such Guarantor, terminate and have no further force or effect. In connection with the
merger of the Guarantor into another Loan Party, this Guaranty will be assumed (as a matter of law) by such other Loan Party and will, together with any Guaranty of the Guarantied Obligations by such other Loan Party, constitute a single Guaranty.

 21. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) Generality of Certain Terms. As used in this Guaranty, the terms “hereof”, “herein” and terms of similar import refer to this Guaranty as a whole and not to
any particular term or provision. 
 (b) Amendments, Waivers. No amendment to or waiver of any provision of this
Guaranty, and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless in a writing manually signed by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No delay or failure of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, in exercising any right or remedy under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall
any single or partial exercise of 

  
 -10-

 
any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under
this Guaranty are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies available hereunder, under any other agreement or instrument, by law, or otherwise. 
 (c) Telecommunications. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any individual making any telecopy or telephonic notice, request, or signature without
the necessity of receipt of any verification thereof. 
 (d) Expenses. Each Guarantor unconditionally agrees to pay all
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders in enforcing this Guaranty against any Guarantor and each Guarantor shall pay and indemnify each Lender and the Administrative
Agent for, and hold it harmless from and against, any and all obligations, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses (including disbursements and reasonable legal fees of counsel to any Lender or the Administrative Agent), penalties, judgments,
suits, actions, claims, and disbursements imposed on, asserted against, or incurred by any Lender or the Administrative Agent (i) relating to the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement of or collection under this
Guaranty or any document, instrument, or agreement relating to any of the Obligations, including in any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding in any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof; (ii) relating to any amendment,
modification, waiver, or consent hereunder or relating to any telecopy or telephonic transmission purporting to be by any Guarantor or the Borrower; (iii) in any way relating to or arising out of this Guaranty, or any document, instrument, or
agreement relating to any of the Guarantied Obligations, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder, and including those arising directly or indirectly from the violation or asserted violation by
any Guarantor or the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any law, rule, regulation, judgment, order, or the like of any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof (including those relating to environmental protection, health,
labor, importing, exporting, or safety) and regardless whether asserted by any governmental entity or any other Person. 
 (e)
Prior Understandings. This Guaranty shall supersede all prior understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties hereto and thereto and relating to the transactions provided for herein and therein. 

(f) Survival. All representations and warranties of the Guarantors made in connection with this Guaranty shall survive, and shall
not be waived by, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty, any investigation by or knowledge of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, any extension of credit, or any other event or circumstance whatsoever.

Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among, CNX Gas Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors now or hereafter party thereto, the Administrative Agent, Bank of America, N.A. as Syndication Agent,
and the Lenders now or hereafter party thereto (as amended, restated, modified, or supplemented from time to time hereafter, the “Credit Agreement”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings
ascribed to them by the Credit Agreement and the rules of construction set forth in Section 1.2 [Construction] of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this Guaranty. This is the “CONSOL Guaranty Agreement” referred to in the Credit
Agreement. 
 1. Guarantied Obligations. To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to make loans and grant other
financial accommodations to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally unconditionally, and irrevocably, guaranties to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and becomes surety, as though it was a primary
obligor for, the full, strict and indefeasible payment and performance when due (whether on demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise and including any amounts which would become due but for the operation of an automatic stay under
the federal bankruptcy code of the United States or any similar laws of any country or jurisdiction) of: (i) all Obligations, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness from time
to time of the Borrower or any other Guarantor to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders, under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service
Product, whether for principal, interest, fees, indemnities, expenses, or otherwise, and all refinancings or refundings thereof, whether such obligations, liabilities, or indebtedness are direct or indirect, secured or unsecured, joint or several,
absolute or contingent, due or to become due, whether for payment or performance, now existing or hereafter arising (and including obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising or accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, or similar proceeding with respect to any of the Loan Parties or that would have arisen or accrued but for the commencement of such proceeding (including without limitation, interest after default), even if the claim for such
obligation, liability or indebtedness is not enforceable or allowable in such proceeding, and including all Obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising from any extensions of credit under or in connection with the Loan Documents, or any
Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, from time to time, regardless of whether any such extensions of credit are in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, or any Specified
Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, or are made in circumstances in which any condition to 

 
extension of credit is not satisfied), (ii) any obligation or liability of any of the Loan Parties arising out of overdrafts on deposits or other accounts or out of electronic funds (whether
by wire transfer or through automated clearing houses or otherwise) or out of the return unpaid of, or other failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to receive final payment for, any check, item, instrument, payment order or other deposit
or credit to a deposit or other account, or out of the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s non-receipt of or inability to collect funds or otherwise not being made whole in connection with depository or other similar arrangements, and
(iii) any amendments, extensions, renewals and increases of or to any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing obligations, liabilities and indebtedness are referred to herein collectively as the “Guarantied Obligations” and each
as a “Guarantied Obligation”). Without limitation of the foregoing, any of the Guarantied Obligations shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty if the Administrative Agent or any of the
Lenders (or any one or more assignees or transferees thereof) from time to time assigns or otherwise transfers all or any portion of their respective rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other
Person as provided by the Loan Documents, by the Specified Hedge Agreements or by the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees as follows: 

2. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby promises to pay and perform all such Guarantied Obligations when due and payable, after the
expiration of any applicable cure periods, immediately upon demand of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or any one or more of them. All payments made hereunder shall be made by each Guarantor in immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars and
shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, withholding, or other deduction of any nature. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require
that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender to any of the security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender in
favor of any Borrower or any other person. 
 3. Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall
not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by any failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by any Lender, the Administrative Agent, or the Borrower or any other obligor on any of the Guarantied Obligations, or by any
other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity, except
for, and to the extent of, payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each of the Guarantors agrees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, the Specified
Hedge Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby consents to, at any time and from time to time, and the joint and several obligations of each
Guarantor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following: 
 (a) Any
lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Loan Document or any of the
Guarantied Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction

affecting any of the Guarantied Obligations, any of the terms of the Loan Documents, Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or any rights of the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders or any other Person with respect thereto; 
 (b) Any increase, decrease, or change in the
amount, nature, type or purpose of any of, or any release, surrender, exchange, compromise or settlement of the Guarantied Obligations (whether or not contemplated by the Loan Documents, Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial
Service Products as presently constituted); any change in the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Guarantied Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents,
Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products; or any amendment, modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; 

(c) Any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any extensions of credit
in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been
satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Person under or in
connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, whether or not with any reservation of rights against any Guarantor; or any application of
collections (including but not limited to collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Guarantied Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, in preference to
Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, or if any collections are applied to Guarantied Obligations, any application to particular Guarantied Obligations; 

(d) Any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, waiver, supplement, termination, subordination, compromise, release, surrender, loss,
or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights, or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful
action by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or, any other action or inaction by any of
the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations. As used in this Guaranty, “direct or indirect security” for the
Guarantied Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct
or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person; 
 (e)
Any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of, the Borrower or any other Person; any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any other Person; or any action taken or 

  
 -3-

 
election made by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (including but not limited to any election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code), the
Borrower, or any other Person in connection with any such proceeding; 
 (f) Any defense, setoff, or counterclaim which may at
any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person with respect to any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations, other than, and to the extent of, payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; or any
discharge by operation of law or release of the Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; and 
 (g) Any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of, any
Guarantor, a guarantor or a surety, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations in full. 
 Each Guarantor acknowledges, consents, and agrees that new Guarantors may join in this Guaranty pursuant to Section 17 hereof, and each Guarantor affirms that its obligations shall continue hereunder
undiminished. 
 4. Waivers, etc. Each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense to (other than, and to the extent of,
the defense of prior payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations) or limitation on its obligations under this Guaranty arising out of or based on any event or circumstance referred to in Section 3 hereof. Without limitation and to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives each of the following: 
 (a) Except as may be expressly
contemplated by the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, all notices, disclosures and demand of any nature which otherwise might be required from time to time
to preserve intact any rights against any Guarantor, including the following: any notice of any event or circumstance described in Section 3 hereof; any notice required by any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any
jurisdiction; any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any notice of the incurrence of any Guarantied Obligation; any notice of any default or any failure on the
part of the Borrower or any other Person to comply with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; and any notice of any information pertaining to the business,
operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrower or any other Person; 
 (b) Any right to any
marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against the Borrower or any other Person in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or to the exercise against the Borrower or any other Person of any other
right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied

  
 -4-

 
Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Guaranty or any other
Loan Document, Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, and any requirement that any Guarantor receive notice of any such acceptance; 
 (c) Any defense or other right arising by reason of any law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction pertaining to election of remedies (including but not limited to anti-deficiency laws, “one
action” laws or the like), or by reason of any election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (including but not limited to commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or
nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security for any of the Guarantied Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, to seek a deficiency against
the Borrower or any other Person or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Guarantied Obligations; and 
 (d) Any and
all defenses it may now or hereafter have based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like. 
 5.
Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a continuing obligation of the Guarantors and shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that no Guarantied Obligations may be outstanding from time to time and notwithstanding any other event or
circumstance. Upon Payment In Full, and provided that none of the other obligations referred to in Section 1(ii) hereof are then in default, this Guaranty shall terminate; provided, however, that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or
be reinstated, as the case may be, any time any payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations is rescinded, recouped, avoided, or must otherwise be returned or released by any Lender or the Administrative Agent upon or during the insolvency,
bankruptcy, or reorganization of, or any similar proceeding affecting, the Borrower or for any other reason whatsoever, all as though such payment had not been made and was due and owing. 

6. Subrogation. Each Guarantor waives and agrees that it will not exercise any rights against the Borrower or any other Guarantor
arising in connection with, or any Collateral securing, the Guarantied Obligations (including rights of subrogation, contribution, and the like) until Payment In Full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or on behalf of the Borrower or
any other Guarantor by virtue of any right of subrogation, contribution, or the like, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and shall be held in trust for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. 

7. No Stay. Without limitation of any other provision of this Guaranty, if any declaration of default or acceleration or other
exercise or condition to exercise of rights or remedies under or with respect to any Guarantied Obligation shall at any time be stayed, enjoined, or prevented for any reason (including but not limited to stay or injunction resulting from the
pendency against the Borrower or any other Person of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding), the Guarantors agree that, for the purposes of this Guaranty and their obligations hereunder, the Guarantied Obligations shall be
deemed to have been declared in default or 

  
 -5-

 
accelerated, and such other exercise or conditions to exercise shall be deemed to have been taken or met. 
 8. Taxes. 
 (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or
on account of any obligation of any of the Guarantors hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Guarantor shall be
required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Paragraph) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Guarantor shall make
such deductions and (iii) such Guarantor shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by any Guarantor. Without limiting the provisions of Paragraph (a) above, each Guarantor shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance
with applicable Law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Guarantors. Each Guarantor shall indemnify the Administrative Agent,
each Lender and the Issuing Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable
under this Paragraph) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Guarantor by a Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Certificate. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Guarantor to an Official Body, such Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, the
original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e) Tax Provisions Incorporated By Reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any and all payments by or on account
of any obligation of the Guarantors hereunder, the provisions of Section 5.8 [Taxes] of the Credit Agreement are cross-referenced, incorporated herein and shall apply to the Administrative Agent, each Lender, Issuing Lender and any Guarantor as
if such Guarantor is, in fact, the Borrower; provided, however, that no Guarantor shall have any obligation under this Section 8 [Taxes] in excess of such Guarantor’s Guarantied Obligations. 

  
 -6-

 9. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor makes the representations and
warranties set forth in Section 6.1.1, 6.1.4, 6.1.5, 6.1.6, 6.1.14, 6.1.15, 6.1.17 and 6.1.22 of the Credit Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as to itself and its Subsidiaries as if it were a “Loan Party” referred to thereunder.

 10. Notices. Each Guarantor agrees that all notices, statements, requests, demands and other communications under this
Guaranty shall be given to such Guarantor at the address set forth on a Schedule to the Credit Agreement and in the manner provided in Section 11.5.1 [Notices Generally] of the Credit Agreement or in a Joinder. The Administrative Agent and the
Lenders may rely on any notice (whether or not made in a manner contemplated by this Guaranty) purportedly made by or on behalf of a Guarantor, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no duty to verify the identity or authority of
the Person giving such notice. 
 11. Counterparts; Telecopy Signatures. This Guaranty may be executed by different
parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page by
telecopy or electronic signature delivery system (in either case in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed signature page to this Guaranty. 

12. Setoff, Default Payments by Borrower. 
 (a) In the event that at any time any obligation of the Guarantors now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty shall have become due and payable, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of
them, shall have the right from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, to set off against and apply to such due and payable amount any obligation of any nature of any Lender or the Administrative Agent, or any subsidiary or affiliate of any
Lender or the Administrative Agent, to any Guarantor, including but not limited to all deposits (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally credited, however evidenced) now or hereafter maintained by any Guarantor
with the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof. Such right shall be absolute and unconditional in all circumstances and, without limitation, shall exist whether or not the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or
any of them, shall have given any notice or made any demand under this Guaranty or under such obligation to the Guarantor, whether such obligation to the Guarantor is absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured (it being agreed that the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may deem such obligation to be then due and payable at the time of such setoff), and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any collateral, guaranty, or other direct or indirect security or
right or remedy available to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders. The rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section are in addition to such other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of
setoff and banker’s lien) which the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may have, and nothing in this Guaranty or in any other Loan Document, Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product shall
be deemed a waiver of or restriction on the right of setoff or banker’s lien of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any affiliate or
subsidiary of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders and any holder of a participation in any obligation of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, shall have the same rights of setoff as the Administrative Agent and

  
 -7-

 
the Lenders as provided in this Section (regardless whether such affiliate or participant otherwise would be deemed a creditor of any Guarantor). 

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any default under any Guarantied Obligation, if any amount shall be paid to any
Guarantor by or for the account of the Borrower, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of each Lender and the Administrative Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guarantied
Obligations when due and payable. 
 13. Construction. The section and other headings contained in this Guaranty are for
reference purposes only and shall not affect interpretation of this Guaranty in any respect. This Guaranty has been fully negotiated between the applicable parties, each party having the benefit of legal counsel, and accordingly neither any doctrine
of construction of guaranties or suretyships in favor of the guarantor or surety, nor any doctrine of construction of ambiguities in agreement or instruments against the party controlling the drafting thereof, shall apply to this Guaranty.

 14. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, and their successors and assigns except that no Guarantor may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest
herein other than assignments and transfers permitted by the Credit Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them (and any successive assignee or transferee), from time to time may assign or
otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or any portion of any commitment to extend credit), or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other Person as provided and permitted by the
Credit Agreement and such Guarantied Obligations (including any Guarantied Obligations resulting from extension of credit by such other Person under or in connection with the Loan Documents, Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided
Financial Service Products) shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty, and to the extent of its interest in such Guarantied Obligations such other Person shall be vested with all the benefits in respect
thereof granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in this Guaranty or otherwise. 
 15. Governing Law; Submission
to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (a) Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by, construed, and
enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. 

(b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF VENUE; SERVICE OF PROCESS; WAVIER OF JURY TRIAL. 

(i) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND
ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES

OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN
ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE ISSUING LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY GUARANTOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. 
 (ii) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE
LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN THIS SECTION 15. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT AND AGREES NOT ASSERT ANY SUCH DEFENSE. 

(iii) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER

THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD
NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO 

  
 -9-

 
ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE
MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 16. Severability; Modification to Conform to Law. 

(a) The provisions of this Guaranty are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Guaranty shall be held invalid or
unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any
other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction. 
 (b) Without limitation of the preceding Subsection
(a), to the extent that applicable law (including applicable laws pertaining to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent or preferential transfer) otherwise would render the full amount of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder invalid, voidable, or
unenforceable on account of the amount of a Guarantor’s aggregate liability under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the aggregate amount of such liability shall, without any further
action by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders or such Guarantor or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding, which (without
limiting the generality of the foregoing) may be an amount which is equal to the greater of: 
 (i) the fair
consideration actually received by such Guarantor under the terms and as a result of the Loan Documents, the Specified Hedge Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, and the value of the benefits described in
Section 19(b) hereof, including (and to the extent not inconsistent with applicable federal and state laws affecting the enforceability of guaranties) distributions, commitments, and advances made to or for the benefit of such Guarantor with
the proceeds of any credit extended under the Loan Documents, the Specified Hedge Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or 
 (ii) the excess of (1) the amount of the fair value of the assets of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty as determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing
determinations of the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof, over (2) the amount of all liabilities of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty, also as determined on the basis of applicable federal and state laws
governing the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section or elsewhere in this Guaranty, this Guaranty shall be presumptively valid and enforceable to its full extent in accordance with its terms, as if this Section (and references elsewhere in this Guaranty to enforceability to the fullest extent
permitted by law) were not a part of this Guaranty, and in any related litigation the burden of proof shall be on the party asserting the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof or asserting any limitation on any Guarantor’s
obligations hereunder as to each element of such assertion. 

  
 -10-

 17. Additional Guarantors. CONSOL hereby agrees that if any Subsidiary of CONSOL
(other than CNX Gas or any Subsidiary of CNX Gas) becomes a “Loan Party” or “Guarantor” under the CONSOL Credit Agreement, CONSOL shall cause such Subsidiary, concurrently therewith, to deliver to the Administrative Agent a
joinder to this Guaranty in the form of Exhibit A hereto (a “Joinder”). No notice of the addition of any Guarantor shall be required to be given to any pre-existing Guarantor and each Guarantor hereby consents thereto. 

18. Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations and additional liabilities of each and every Guarantor under this Guaranty are
joint and several obligations of the Guarantors, and each Guarantor hereby waives to the full extent permitted by law any defense it may otherwise have to the payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations that its liability hereunder is
limited and not joint and several. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers and those set forth below serve as a material inducement to the agreement of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to make the Loans, and that
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are relying on each specific waiver and all such waivers in entering into this Guaranty. The undertakings of each Guarantor hereunder secure the obligations of itself and the other Guarantors. The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this Guaranty against any Guarantor without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Guarantor and such an election by the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may elect to take against any Guarantor. Each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby reserve all rights
against each Guarantor. 
 19. Receipt of Credit Agreement, Other Loan Documents, Benefits. 

(a) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any Specified
Hedge Agreement and any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, and each Guarantor certifies that the representations and warranties made therein with respect to such Guarantor are true and correct. Further, each Guarantor acknowledges and
agrees to perform, comply with, and be bound by all of the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent applicable to such Guarantor. 
 (b) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges, represents, and warrants that it receives synergistic benefits by virtue of its affiliation with the Borrower and the other Guarantors and that it will receive
direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement and that such benefits, together with the rights of contribution and subrogation that may arise in connection herewith are a reasonably equivalent
exchange of value in return for providing this Guaranty. 
 20. Release of Guarantor. In the event that any Guarantor
ceases to be a “Loan Party” and “Guarantor” under the CONSOL Credit Agreement, such Guarantor shall currently be released from this Guaranty automatically and without further action, and this Guaranty shall, as to such Guarantor,
terminate and have no further force or effect. The Administrative Agent agrees to execute an instrument evidencing such release in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent upon request of CONSOL and certification by CONSOL that
such Guarantor has ceased to be a “Loan Party” and “Guarantor” under the CONSOL Credit Agreement. In 

  
 -11-

 
connection with the merger of the Guarantor into another CONSOL Loan Party, this Guaranty will be assumed (as a matter of law) by such other CONSOL Loan Party and will, together with any Guaranty
of the Guarantied Obligations by such other CONSOL Loan Party, constitute a single Guaranty. 
 21. Miscellaneous.

manually signed by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No delay or failure of the Administrative Agent or
the Lenders, or any of them, in exercising any right or remedy under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Guaranty are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies available hereunder, under any other agreement or instrument, by
law, or otherwise. 
 (c) Telecommunications. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on the
authority of any individual making any telecopy or telephonic notice, request, or signature without the necessity of receipt of any verification thereof. 
 (d) Expenses. Each Guarantor unconditionally agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders in enforcing
this Guaranty against any Guarantor and each Guarantor shall pay and indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for, and hold it harmless from and against, any and all obligations, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses (including
disbursements and reasonable legal fees of counsel to any Lender or the Administrative Agent), penalties, judgments, suits, actions, claims, and disbursements imposed on, asserted against, or incurred by any Lender or the Administrative Agent
(i) relating to the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement of or collection under this Guaranty or any document, instrument, or agreement relating to any of the Obligations, including in any bankruptcy, insolvency,
or similar proceeding in any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof; (ii) relating to any amendment, modification, waiver, or consent hereunder or relating to any telecopy or telephonic transmission purporting to be by any Guarantor or
the Borrower; (iii) in any way relating to or arising out of this Guaranty, or any document, instrument, or agreement relating to any of the Guarantied Obligations, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Lender or the Administrative
Agent hereunder, and including those arising directly or indirectly from the violation or asserted violation by any Guarantor or the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any law, rule, regulation, judgment, order, or the like of any
jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof (including those relating to environmental protection, health, labor, importing, exporting, or safety) and regardless whether asserted by any governmental entity or any other Person.

understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties hereto and thereto and relating to the transactions provided for herein and therein. 
 (f) Survival. All representations and warranties of the Guarantors made in connection with this Guaranty shall survive, and shall not be waived by, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty, any
investigation by or knowledge of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, any extension of credit, or any other event or circumstance whatsoever.

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, each Loan Party
hereby covenants, warrants, represents and agrees as follows: 
 1. Definitions. All capitalized terms used herein but
not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given such terms in the Credit Agreement. 
 2. Representations and
Warranties. The Loan Parties, each for themselves respectively, and as applicable to each such Loan Party’s ownership, occupation or leasing of or conducting operations and activities at any Property, hereby reaffirm the representations and
warranties set forth in Section 6.1.24 [Environmental Matters] of the Credit Agreement. 
 3. Environmental
Covenants. 
 (a) Each Loan Party, for themselves respectively, and as applicable to each such Loan Party’s ownership,
occupation or leasing of or conducting operations and activities at any Property, shall keep such Property free of Hazardous Materials and shall remove, or cause their lessees to remove, all Hazardous Materials which are now or at any time in the
future in or on the Property, irrespective of the source thereof, except to the extent that such Hazardous Materials are present on or stored and/or used substantially in compliance with Environmental Laws;

 
provided, that it shall not be deemed to be a violation of this Section 3(a) unless or until any failure to comply with any applicable Environmental Law would result in fines,
penalties, remediation costs, other liabilities or injunctive relief which, considered either individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. Each Loan Party, for themselves respectively, and as
applicable to each such Loan Party’s ownership, occupation or leasing of or conducting operations and activities at any Property, shall not suffer or permit such Property to be used to generate, manufacture, refine, transport, treat, dispose
of, transfer, produce or process Hazardous Materials in violation of Environmental Laws; provided, that it shall not be deemed to be a violation of this Section 3(a) unless or until any failure to comply with any applicable Environmental
Law would result in fines, penalties, remediation costs, other similar liabilities or injunctive relief which, considered either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. 

(b) Each Loan Party, for themselves respectively, and as applicable to each such Loan Party’s ownership, occupation or leasing of or
conducting operations and activities at any Property, shall immediately, upon their respective Responsible Officer obtaining knowledge of any of the following, notify the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties in writing upon the
occurrence of: 
 (i) the Release or threat of Release of any Hazardous Materials on, at, under, from or
affecting the Property in violation of Environmental Laws that could reasonably be expected to result in fines, penalties, remediation costs, other liabilities or injunctive relief which, considered either individually or in the aggregate, could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change; 
 (ii) any violation affecting the Property of
any Environmental Laws, if such violation is reasonably likely to result in fines, penalties, remediation costs, other similar liabilities or injunctive relief which, considered either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Change; and 
 (iii) any Environmental Liability or any claim or claims relating
to any Loan Party relating to damage, contribution, cost recovery, compensation, loss or injury resulting from any Hazardous Materials on, at, under, from or affecting the Property if such claim or series of claims, when considered either
individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. 
 (c) Except as
otherwise disclosed in written reports delivered to the Collateral Trustee prior to the date hereof, the Loan Parties certify that, as of the date of this Agreement, to their knowledge, no report, analysis, study or other document prepared by or for
any Person exists which identifies any Hazardous Materials on, at, under, emanating from or affecting the Property which, considered either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

 (d) The Loan Parties, at their sole expense and for themselves respectively, and as applicable to each such Loan Party’s
ownership, occupation or leasing of or conducting operations and activities at any Property, shall, or shall cause the tenants of the Property to, conduct and complete all investigations, studies, sampling and testing and all removal and other

  
 -2-

 
actions necessary to clean up, remove or otherwise address all Hazardous Materials on, at, under, from or affecting any of the Property in accordance with all Environmental Laws; provided,
however that it shall not be deemed to be a violation of this Section 3(d) unless or until any failure to conduct and complete all investigations, studies, sampling and testing and all removal and other actions is reasonably likely to
result in fines, penalties, remediation costs or other liabilities which, considered either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. 

4. Indemnity. 
 (a) The Loan Parties shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Collateral Trustee, the Secured Parties and their employees, agents, officers and directors from and against any claims, costs, demands,
penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements or damages of whatever kind or nature and associated reasonable costs or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, fees of environmental consultants and laboratory fees, known or unknown,
contingent or otherwise (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”), arising out of or in any way related to the following matters: 
 (i) the presence, Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Materials on, at, under, from or affecting the Property or the soil, water, vegetation, buildings, personal property, persons or natural
resources thereon; 
 (ii) any personal injury (including wrongful death) or property damage (real or personal)
or damage to natural resources arising out of or related to such Hazardous Materials; 
 (iii) any lawsuit

 (b) The liability covered by this Section 4 shall include, but not be limited to, losses sustained by the

respect to the matters covered by this Agreement, (iii) amounts charged for any environmental or Hazardous Materials cleanup costs and expenses, liens or other such charges or impositions, (iv) payment for reasonable attorneys’ fees

 -3-

 
value of the Property in its use by the Loan Parties in their mining operations and (B) with respect to environmental or Hazardous Materials cleanup costs and expenses, shall be limited to
the costs and expenses for cleanup of the Property so that it is suitable for use in mining operations and in compliance with all Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits (including without limitation, any permanent reclamation or water
treatment resulting from the operations of the Loan Parties or their predecessors). 
 5. Each Loan Party’s
Obligation to Deliver Property. Each Loan Party agrees for themselves respectively, and as applicable to each such Loan Party’s ownership, occupation or leasing of or conducting operations and activities at any Property that, in the event
any Mortgage is foreclosed (whether judicially or by power of sale) or any such Loan Party tenders a deed in lieu of foreclosure or any such Loan Party otherwise voluntarily or involuntarily conveys possession of or title to the Property, such Loan
Party shall deliver the Property or any parcel comprising such portion of the Property to the Collateral Trustee in a condition that is in compliance with and not subject to any Lien under any applicable Environmental Laws and which could not be
reasonably be expected to result in any Environmental Liability. The obligations of each Loan Party as set forth in this paragraph are strictly for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee and the Secured Parties and any successors and assigns of the
Collateral Trustee and the Secured Parties as holders of any portion of the Secured Debt and shall not in any way impair or affect the Collateral Trustee’s and/or the Secured Parties’ right to foreclose against any parcel comprising a
portion of the Property. 
 6. The Collateral Trustee’s and/or Secured Parties’ Rights Under This Agreement.
The rights of the Collateral Trustee and the Secured Parties under this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights of the Collateral Trustee and/or the Secured Parties under the Mortgages, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Documents and the
Indenture. Any default by any Loan Party under this Agreement (including without limitation any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by any Loan Party in this Agreement) shall, at the Collateral Trustee’s option, constitute
an Actionable Default under the Collateral Trust Agreement and an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents. 
 7. The Collateral Trustee’s and/or the Secured Parties’ Right to Cure. In addition to the other remedies provided to the Collateral Trustee and/or the Secured Parties in the Credit
Agreement, the Mortgages, the other Loan Documents and the Indenture, should any Loan Party fail to abide by the terms and covenants of this Agreement, the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties, and/or the Secured Parties may, should
they elect to do so in order to protect their security interest, cause the removal, remediation of or other corrective action with respect to any Hazardous Materials on, at, under or emanating from or affecting the Property and repair and remedy any
damage caused by the Hazardous Materials or any such removal, remediation or corrective action, as necessary to assure substantial compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws. In such event, all funds expended by the Collateral Trustee on
behalf of the Secured Parties and/or the Secured Parties for such purposes, including but not limited to all reasonable attorneys’ fees, engineering fees, consultant fees and similar charges, shall become a part of the obligations secured by
the Mortgages and shall be due and payable by each of the Loan Parties on demand. Each disbursement made by the Collateral Trustee and/or the Secured Parties pursuant to this provision shall bear interest at the lower of (a) the rate of
interest applicable under Section 4.3.2 [Other Obligations] of the Credit Agreement, or (b) the highest 

  
 -4-

 
rate allowable under applicable laws from the date any Loan Party shall have received written notice that the funds have been advanced by the Collateral Trustee and/or the Secured Parties until
paid in full. The Borrower and each of the other Loan Parties shall permit the Collateral Trustee, the Secured Parties, and their agents and employees access to their respective Property (or in the case of the Borrower any and all Properties) for
any purpose consistent with this provision. 
 8. The Collateral Trustee’s Right to Conduct an Investigation. In the
event the Secured Parties shall have reasonable cause to suspect that any Loan Party has failed to comply with the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Trustee may obtain one or more environmental assessments of the Property, at the sole expense
of any of the Loan Parties. The nature and scope of the environmental assessments shall be determined by the Collateral Trustee in its judgment. Each Loan Party shall permit the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the
Collateral Trustee’s agents and employees, access to the Property for the purpose of conducting the environmental assessment and shall otherwise cooperate and provide such additional information as may be requested by the Collateral Trustee or
the Collateral Trustee’s agents and employees. In the event any Loan Party fails to pay in accordance with this Section 8 for the cost of any such environmental audit, the Secured Parties may pay for same. Each such payment made by the
Secured Parties shall become a part of the obligations secured by the Mortgages, shall be due and payable upon demand and shall bear interest after demand at the lower of either (a) the rate of interest applicable under Section 4.3.2
[Other Obligations] of the Credit Agreement, or (b) the highest rate allowable under applicable laws, until paid in full by any Loan Party. 
 9. Scope of Liability. The liability under this Agreement shall in no way be limited or impaired by (a) any extension of time for performance required by the Credit Agreement, any of the Loan
Documents or the Indenture, (b) any exculpatory provisions in any of the Loan Documents or the Indenture limiting the Collateral Trustee’s and/or the Secured Parties’ recourse, (c) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the
representations and warranties made by any Loan Party or any other obligor under the Credit Agreement, any of the Loan Documents or the Indenture, (d) the release of any Loan Party or any other Person from performance or observance of any of
the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents or the Indenture by operation of law, the Collateral Trustee’s and/or the Secured Parties’ voluntary act or otherwise, (e) the release or
substitution, in whole or in part, of any security for any Loan Party’s obligations or (f) the Collateral Trustee’s failure to record or improper recording or filing of any of the Mortgages or any UCC financing statements, or failure
to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for any Loan Party’s obligations; and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to any Loan Party or other Person and with or without
consideration. The indemnity provided in Section 4 above shall survive (i) any sale, assignment or foreclosure of any of the Mortgages or other Loan Documents, the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or trustee’s sale, or any
sale or transfer of all or part of the possession of or title to the Property, or (ii) the discharge of any of the other Loan Documents or the Indenture and/or the reconveyance or release of any of the Mortgages. 

  
 -5-

 10. Preservation of Rights. No delay on the Collateral Trustee’s and/or the
Secured Parties’ part in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such privilege, power or right. 
 11. Notices. All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or served for all purposes when sent by registered or certified mail to any Loan Party or
the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders as provided in Section 11.5.1 [Notices Generally] of the Credit Agreement and in the case of the Collateral Trustee, as provided in Section 7.2 [Notices] of the Collateral Trust Agreement.

 12. Changes in Writing. No provision of this Agreement may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, by
telephone or by any other means, except by an instrument in writing signed by all parties hereto. 
 13. Joint and Several
Obligations. With respect to the obligations of each Loan Party in connection with this Agreement, the Borrower and each other Loan Party are jointly and severally liable hereunder. Any party liable upon or in respect of this Agreement or any
obligations under any of the other Loan Documents or the Indenture may be released without affecting the liability of any party not so released. 
 14. Survival. The obligations of each of the Loan Parties under Section 4 of this Agreement shall survive any judicial foreclosure, foreclosure by power of sale, deed in lieu of foreclosure,
transfer of possession of or title to the Property by any Loan Party or Secured Parties and Payment In Full and payment of the other Secured Debt in full. 
 15. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions, or any portions thereof, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 16. Governing Law
and Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall in all respects be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the governing laws as set forth in the Credit Agreement; provided, however,
that the applicable federal, state and local Environmental Laws of the jurisdiction in which the Property is situated shall govern the Loan Parties’ obligations with respect to compliance with Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits that
are required under Environmental Laws to own, occupy or maintain the Property or which otherwise are required for the operations and business activities of the Loan Parties. 
 17. Construction. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise clearly requires, the rules of construction set forth in Section 1.2 [Construction] of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this
Agreement and are incorporated herein by reference. 
 18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original document and all of which shall be deemed the same document. 

  
 -6-

 19. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF VENUE; SERVICE OF PROCESS; WAVIER OF JURY
TRIAL. 
 (a) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR
ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN
ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF
ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT,

 EXHIBIT 1.1(I)(2) 

FORM OF 

CONSOL INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT 
 THIS CONSOL INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of April 12, 2011 and is made by and among CNX GAS CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the
“Borrower”), each other Loan Party, now or hereafter party hereto (the Borrower and each other Loan Party being individually referred to herein as a “Loan Party” and collectively as the “Loan
Parties”), the CONSOL Loan Parties (the Loan Parties and the CONSOL Loan Parties being individually referred to herein as a “Company” and collectively as the “Companies”), and PNC BANK, NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), for the Lenders (as defined below). 

WITNESSETH THAT: 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, by and among the Borrower, the guarantors
now or hereafter a party thereto, the lenders now or hereafter a party thereto (the “Lenders”), PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as Syndication Agent (the “Credit
Agreement”, each capitalized term used herein shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meaning specified in the Credit Agreement), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agreed to provide certain loans and other financial
accommodations to the Borrower; 
 WHEREAS, the Loan Parties have or, in the future, may have liabilities, obligations or
indebtedness owed to the CONSOL Loan Parties (the liabilities, obligations and indebtedness of each of the Loan Parties to any CONSOL Loan Party, now existing or hereafter incurred (whether created directly or acquired by assignment or otherwise),
and interest and premiums, if any, thereon and other amounts payable in respect thereof and all other obligations and other amounts payable by any Loan Party to any CONSOL Loan Party are hereinafter collectively referred to as the
“Subordinated Indebtedness”); and 
 WHEREAS, the obligations of the Lenders to maintain the Commitments and
make Loans to, and issue Letters of Credit on behalf of, the Borrower from time to time are subject to the condition, among others, that each Loan Party subordinate the Subordinated Indebtedness owed by it to its Obligations to the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product (collectively, the “Senior Debt”) in the manner set forth herein.

 NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows: 

1. Subordinated Indebtedness Subordinated to Senior Debt. The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated by reference. All
Subordinated Indebtedness shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior Payment In Full. 

  
 Exhibit
1.1(I)(2)-1 

 2. Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. Upon any distribution of assets of
any Loan Party in the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection therewith, relative to any such Loan Party or to its
creditors, as such, or to its assets, or (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of any such Loan Party, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the
benefit of creditors or any marshalling of assets and liabilities of any such Loan Party (a Loan Party distributing assets as set forth herein being referred to in such capacity as a “Distributing Company”), then and in any such
event, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests may appear, Payment In Full (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of
the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) before the holder of any Subordinated Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company is entitled to
receive any payment on account of the principal of or interest on such Subordinated Indebtedness, and, to that end, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, for application to the payment of the Senior Debt, any payment or distribution
of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company in any such case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other
winding up event. 
 3. No Commencement of Any Proceeding. Each CONSOL Loan Party agrees that, so long as the Senior Debt
shall remain unpaid, it will not commence, or join with any creditor other than the Lenders and the Administrative Agent in commencing, any proceeding, including but not limited to those described in Section 2 hereof, or other enforcement
action of any kind against any Loan Party which owes it any Subordinated Indebtedness. 
 4. Prior Payment in Full of Senior
Debt Upon Acceleration of Subordinated Indebtedness. If any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness owed by any Loan Party becomes or is declared due and payable before its stated maturity, then and in such event the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders shall be entitled to receive Payment In Full (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have
become due and payable) before the holder of any such Subordinated Indebtedness is entitled to receive any payment thereon. 

5. No Payment When Senior Debt in Default. If any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, or an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default would result from or exist after giving effect to a payment with respect to any portion of Subordinated Indebtedness, unless the Required Lenders shall have consented to or waived the
same, so long as any of the Senior Debt shall remain outstanding, no payment shall be made by any Loan Party owing Subordinated Indebtedness on account of principal or interest on any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness for borrowed money. No
payment shall be made by any Loan Party owing any Subordinated Indebtedness other than for borrowed money of such Subordinated Indebtedness after the earlier of (i) any proceeding described in clause (a) or (c) of Section 2
hereof or (ii) the declaration of the Senior Debt as due and payable before its stated maturity. 

  
 Exhibit
1.1(I)(2)-2 

 6. Payment Permitted if No Default. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent
any of the Loan Parties, at any time except during the pendency of any of the conditions described in Sections 2, 4 and 5, from making the regularly scheduled payments of principal of or interest on any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness,
or the retention thereof by any of the CONSOL Loan Parties of any money deposited with them for the payment of or on account of the principal of or interest on the Subordinated Indebtedness. 

7. Receipt of Prohibited Payments. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 2, 4, 5 and 6, a CONSOL Loan Party
which is owed Subordinated Indebtedness by a Distributing Company shall have received any payment or distribution of assets from the Distributing Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, then and in such event such
payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests may appear, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by such CONSOL Loan Party, and shall be
forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to or held as collateral (in the case of noncash property or securities) for the payment or
prepayment of the Senior Debt in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Specified Hedge Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products. 

8. Rights of Subrogation. Each Loan Party agrees that no payment or distribution to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle it to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until Payment In Full. 
 9. Instruments Evidencing Subordinated Indebtedness. Each Company shall cause each instrument for borrowed money which now or hereafter evidences all or a portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness
to be conspicuously marked as follows: 
 “This instrument is subject to the terms of the CONSOL
Intercompany Subordination Agreement dated as of April 12, 2011, in favor of PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders referred to therein, which Intercompany Subordination Agreement is incorporated herein by
reference. Notwithstanding any contrary statement contained in the within instrument, no payment on account of the principal thereof or interest thereon shall become due or payable except in accordance with the express terms of said Intercompany
Subordination Agreement.” 
 Each Company will further mark its books of account in such a manner as shall be effective to give proper
notice of the effect of this Agreement. 
 10. Agreement Solely to Define Relative Rights. The purpose of this Agreement
is solely to define the relative rights of the CONSOL Loan Parties, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair, as between any of the Loan
Parties and their creditors other than the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the obligation of the Loan Parties to the CONSOL Loan Parties to pay the principal of and interest on the Subordinated Indebtedness as and when the same shall become
due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or shall 

  
 Exhibit
1.1(I)(2)-3 

 
affect the relative rights among the Loan Parties and their creditors other than the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, nor shall anything herein prevent any of the CONSOL Loan Parties from
exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable Law upon default under any agreement pursuant to which the Subordinated Indebtedness is created, subject to the rights, if any, under this Agreement of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders to receive cash, property or securities otherwise payable or deliverable with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness. 

11. No Implied Waivers of Subordination. No right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to enforce subordination, as herein
provided, shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Company or by any act or failure to act by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or by any non-compliance by any Company with the
terms, provisions and covenants of any agreement pursuant to which the Subordinated Indebtedness is created, regardless of any knowledge thereof with which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have or be otherwise charged. Each CONSOL Loan
Party by its acceptance hereof shall agree that, so long as there is Senior Debt outstanding or Commitments in effect under the Credit Agreement, such CONSOL Loan Party shall not agree to sell, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or
agree to compromise, the obligations of the other Loan Parties with respect to their Subordinated Indebtedness, other than in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders. 

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders may, at any time
and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to any of the Companies except the Borrower to the extent provided in the Credit Agreement, without incurring responsibility to any of the Companies and without impairing or releasing the
subordination provided in this Agreement or the obligations hereunder of the Companies to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment, or extend the time of
payment, renew or alter the Senior Debt or otherwise amend or supplement the Senior Debt or the Loan Documents; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing the Senior Debt;
(iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Senior Debt; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any of the Companies and any other person. 

12. Additional Subsidiaries of the Borrower. The Companies covenant and agree that they shall cause Subsidiaries of CONSOL created
or acquired after the date of this Agreement and any other Subsidiaries in each case as required to join this Agreement under the terms of the Credit Agreement, to join in this Agreement and subordinate to the Senior Debt all Subordinated
Indebtedness owed to any CONSOL Loan Party by any of the Loan Parties. 
 13. Continuing Force and Effect. This Agreement
shall continue in force until Payment In Full, it being contemplated that this Agreement be of a continuing nature. 
 14.
Modification, Amendments or Waivers. Any and all agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder, and any and all waivers or consents to Events of Default or
other departures from the due performance of any Company hereunder, shall be made only by written agreement, 

  
 Exhibit
1.1(I)(2)-4 

 
waiver or consent signed by the Administrative Agent, acting on behalf of all the Lenders, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such
written consent being effective to bind all the Lenders. 
 15. Expenses. The Companies, unconditionally and jointly and
severally, agree upon demand to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements for which reimbursement is customarily obtained, including reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel as set forth in Section 11.3 [Expenses, Etc.] of the Credit Agreement. 
 16. Severability. The
provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent
of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction. 

17. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract under the Laws of the State of New York and for all purposes
shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflict of laws principles. 
 18. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and the obligations of each Company
shall be binding upon their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that no Company may assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein other than assignments and transfers permitted by the Credit Agreement.
Except as permitted by the Credit Agreement, the duties and obligations of the Companies may not be delegated or transferred by the Companies or any Company without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, and any such delegation or
transfer without such consent shall be null and void. Except to the extent otherwise required by the context of this Agreement, the word “Lenders” when used herein shall include, without limitation, any holder of a Note or an
assignment of rights therein originally issued to a Lender under the Credit Agreement, and each such holder of a Note or assignment shall have the benefits of this Agreement to the same extent as if such holder had originally been a Lender under the
Credit Agreement. 
 19. Joint and Several Obligations. Each of the obligations of each and every Company under this
Agreement is joint and several. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this Agreement against any Company without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Company and such an
election by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may elect to take against any Company. Each of the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent hereby reserve all right against each Company. 
 20. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the different
parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be 

  
 Exhibit
1.1(I)(2)-5 

 
deemed an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. 
 21. Attorneys-in-Fact. Each Company hereby authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent, at the election of the Administrative Agent and in the name of either the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests may appear, or in the name of each such Company as is owed Subordinated Indebtedness, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to execute
and file proofs and documents and take any other action the Administrative Agent may deem advisable to completely protect the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in the Subordinated Indebtedness and the right of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders of enforcement thereof, and to that end each of the Companies hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent, its officers, employees and agents, or any of them, with full power of
substitution, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent of such Company, and with full power for such Company, and in the name, place and stead of such Company for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, taking any action and executing, delivering, filing and recording any instruments which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which
power of attorney, being given for security, is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Each Company hereby ratifies and confirms, and agrees to ratify and confirm, all action taken by the Administrative Agent, its officers, employees or agents
pursuant to the foregoing power of attorney. 
 22. Application of Payments. In the event any payments are received by
the Administrative Agent under the terms of this Agreement for application to the Senior Debt at any time when the Senior Debt has not been declared due and payable and prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable, such
payment shall constitute a voluntary prepayment of the Senior Debt for all purposes under the Credit Agreement. 
 23.
Remedies. In the event of a breach by any of the Companies in the performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may demand specific performance of this Agreement and seek injunctive
relief and may exercise any other remedy available at law or in equity, it being recognized that the remedies of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders at law may not fully compensate the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders for
the damages they may suffer in the event of a breach hereof. 
 24. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF VENUE; SERVICE
OF PROCESS. 
 (i) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH COMPANY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY
SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY

PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE
CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE

indebtedness owed to each other (the liabilities, obligations and indebtedness of each of the Companies to any other Company, now existing or hereafter incurred (whether created directly or acquired by assignment or otherwise), and interest and
premiums, if any, thereon and other amounts payable in respect thereof and all other obligations and other amounts payable by any Company to any other Company (other than the Borrower) are hereinafter collectively referred to as the
“Subordinated Indebtedness”); 
 WHEREAS, the obligations of the Lenders to maintain the Commitments and make
Loans to, and issue Letters of Credit on behalf of, the Borrower from time to time are subject to the condition, among others, that the Companies subordinate the Subordinated Indebtedness to the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Company to
the Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any Specified Hedge Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product (collectively, the “Senior Debt”) in the manner
set forth herein; and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to maintain the Commitments and
continue to make Loans to and issue Letters of Credit on behalf of, the 

 
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and the parties desire to amend and restate the Existing Subordination Agreement as set forth herein. 

NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows: 

1. Subordinated Indebtedness Subordinated to Senior Debt. The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated by reference. All
Subordinated Indebtedness shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior Payment In Full. 
 2. Payment
Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. Upon any distribution of assets of any Company in the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding
in connection therewith, relative to any such Company or to its creditors, as such, or to its assets, or (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of any such Company, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving
insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of assets and liabilities of any such Company (a Company distributing assets as set forth herein being referred to in such capacity as a
“Distributing Company”), then and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests may appear, Payment In Full
(whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) before the holder of any
Subordinated Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company is entitled to receive any payment on account of the principal of or interest on such Subordinated Indebtedness, and, to that end, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, for
application to the payment of the Senior Debt, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness owed by the Distributing
Company in any such case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding up event. 
 3. No Commencement of Any
Proceeding. Each Company agrees that, so long as the Senior Debt shall remain unpaid, it will not commence, or join with any creditor other than the Lenders and the Administrative Agent in commencing, any proceeding, including but not limited to
those described in Section 2 hereof, or other enforcement action of any kind against any other Company which owes it any Subordinated Indebtedness. 
 4. Prior Payment in Full of Senior Debt Upon Acceleration of Subordinated Indebtedness. If any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness owed by any Company becomes or is declared due and payable
before its stated maturity, then and in such event the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to receive Payment In Full (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has
been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) before the holder of any such Subordinated Indebtedness is entitled to receive any payment thereon. 

  
 -2-

 5. No Payment When Senior Debt in Default. With respect to Subordinated Indebtedness
for borrowed money, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or such an Event of Default would result from or exist after giving effect to a payment with respect to any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness, unless the
Required Lenders shall have consented to or waived the same, so long as any of the Senior Debt shall remain outstanding, no payment shall be made by any Company owing Subordinated Indebtedness on account of principal or interest on any portion of
the Subordinated Indebtedness for borrowed money. No payment shall be made by any Company owing any Subordinated Indebtedness other than for borrowed money of such Subordinated Indebtedness after the earlier of (i) any proceeding described in
clause (a) or (c) of Section 2 hereof or (ii) the declaration of the Senior Debt as due and payable before its stated maturity. 
 6. Payment Permitted if No Default. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent any of the Companies, at any time except during the pendency of any of the conditions described in
Sections 2, 4 and 5, from making the regularly scheduled payments of principal of or interest on any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness, or the retention thereof by any of the Companies of any money deposited with them for the payment of
or on account of the principal of or interest on the Subordinated Indebtedness. 
 7. Receipt of Prohibited Payments. If,
notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 2, 4, 5 and 6, a Company which is owed Subordinated Indebtedness by a Distributing Company shall have received any payment or distribution of assets from the Distributing Company of any kind or
character, whether in cash, property or securities, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests may appear, shall be segregated
from other funds and property held by such Company, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to or held as collateral (in the
case of noncash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment of the Senior Debt in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Specified Hedge Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service
Products. 
 8. Rights of Subrogation. Each Company agrees that no payment or distribution to the Administrative Agent or
the Lenders pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle it to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until Payment In Full. 
 9. Instruments Evidencing Subordinated Indebtedness. Each Company shall cause each instrument for borrowed money which now or hereafter evidences all or a portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness
to be conspicuously marked as follows: 
 “This instrument is subject to the terms of an Amended and
Restated Intercompany Subordination Agreement dated as of April 12, 2011, in favor of PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders referred to therein, which Intercompany Subordination Agreement is incorporated herein
by reference. Notwithstanding any contrary statement contained in the within instrument, no payment on account of the principal thereof or interest 

  
 -3-

 
thereon shall become due or payable except in accordance with the express terms of said Intercompany Subordination Agreement.” 
 Each Company will further mark its books of account in such a manner as shall be effective to give proper notice of the effect of this Agreement. 

10. Agreement Solely to Define Relative Rights. The purpose of this Agreement is solely to define the relative rights of the
Companies, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair, as between any of the Companies and their creditors other than the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders, the obligation of the Companies to each other to pay the principal of and interest on the Subordinated Indebtedness as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or shall affect
the relative rights among the Companies and their creditors other than the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, nor shall anything herein prevent any of the Companies from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable Law upon default
under any agreement pursuant to which the Subordinated Indebtedness is created, subject to the rights, if any, under this Agreement of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to receive cash, property or securities otherwise payable or deliverable
with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness. 
 11. No Implied Waivers of Subordination. No right of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender to enforce subordination, as herein provided, shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Company or by any act or failure to act by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, or by any non-compliance by any Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of any agreement pursuant to which the Subordinated Indebtedness is created, regardless of any knowledge thereof with which the Administrative Agent or any
Lender may have or be otherwise charged. Each Company by its acceptance hereof shall agree that, so long as there is Senior Debt outstanding or Commitments in effect under the Credit Agreement, such Company shall not agree to sell, assign, pledge,
encumber or otherwise dispose of, or agree to compromise, the obligations of the other Companies with respect to their Subordinated Indebtedness, other than in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, without the prior written consent of
the Required Lenders. 
 Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the Administrative Agent or any
of the Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to any of the Companies except the Borrower to the extent provided in the Credit Agreement, without incurring responsibility to any of the Companies and without
impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Agreement or the obligations hereunder of the Companies to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of
payment, or extend the time of payment, renew or alter the Senior Debt or otherwise amend or supplement the Senior Debt or the Loan Documents; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise
securing the Senior Debt; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Senior Debt; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any of the Companies and any other person.

affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.
