payable by it under any Loan Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by the Chargor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Deed if the amount claimed had been recoverable on

from time to time. 

  

	 	(b)	Default interest will accrue from day to day on a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed and will be compounded at such intervals as the Lender states are

the Chargor. 
  

	7.3	Automatic conversion 

 The
floating charge created under this Deed shall (in addition to the circumstances in which the same will occur under general law) automatically convert into a fixed charge: 

 

	 	(a)	in relation to any Security Asset which is subject to a floating charge if:

	 	(ii)	any third party levies or attempts to levy any distress, execution, attachment or other legal process against any such Security Asset; and

of intention to appoint such an administrator (as contemplated by the Insolvency Act 1986). 

  
  

9 

  

	7.4	Scottish property 

Clause 7.3 (Automatic conversion) will not apply to any assets situated in Scotland if, and to the extent that, a Receiver
would not be capable of exercising his powers in Scotland pursuant to section 72 of the Insolvency Act 1986 by reason of such automatic conversion. 
  

	7.5	Partial conversion 

 The
giving of a notice by the Lender pursuant to clause 7.1 (Conversion by notice) in relation to any class of assets of the Chargor shall not be construed as a waiver or abandonment of the rights of the Lender to serve similar notices in
respect of any other class of assets or of any other right of the Lender. 
  

	8.	CONTINUING SECURITY 

  

	8.1	Continuing security 

 The
Debenture Security is continuing and will extend to the ultimate balance of the Secured Obligations regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part. This Deed shall remain in full force and effect as a continuing security for
the duration of the Security Period. 
  

	8.2	Additional and separate security 

 This Deed is in addition to, without prejudice to, and shall not merge with, any other right, remedy, guarantee or Security which the Lender may at any time hold for any Secured Obligation.

 This
Deed may be enforced against the Chargor without the Lender first having recourse to any other right, remedy, guarantee or Security held by or available to it.

 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Deed or implied to the contrary, the Chargor remains liable to observe and perform all conditions and obligations assumed by it in relation to the Security

	 	(b)	The Chargor shall duly perform its obligations under each Relevant Contract where non performance could lead to a Material Adverse Change, shall notify the Lender of
any material default by it or any other party under any Relevant Contract and shall not take any action which will reduce or impede recoveries in respect of any Assigned Asset other than in the ordinary course of business.

	 	(b)	If the Chargor makes a tax payment in accordance with clause 12.11(a) and the Lender determines that:

	 	(a)	this Debenture Security has become enforceable in accordance with clause 14.1; and

 such time deposit shall automatically be renewed for such further maturity as the Lender in its absolute discretion considers appropriate unless the Lender agrees in writing.

it shall nevertheless be treated as if it had done so at the time when it received or was deemed to have received such notice. 

  

	 	(b)	As from that time all payments made to the Lender will be credited or be treated as having been credited to the new account and will not operate to reduce any amount of
the Secured Obligations.

The Chargor certifies that the Debenture Security does not contravene any of the provisions of the articles of association of the Chargor.

  

	25.4	Protective clauses

Chargor is deemed to be a principal debtor in relation to this Deed. The obligations of the Chargor under, and the security intended to be created by, this Deed shall not be impaired by any forbearance, neglect, indulgence, extension or time,
release, surrender or loss of securities, dealing, amendment or arrangement by the Lender which would otherwise have reduced, released or prejudiced this Debenture Security or any surety liability of the Chargor (whether or not known to it).

error, prima facie evidence against the Chargor of the matters to which it relates. 
  

	28.	PARTIAL INVALIDITY 

 All
the provisions of this Deed are severable and distinct from one another and if at any time any provision is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or
enforceability of any of the remaining provisions nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired. 

 

	29.	REMEDIES AND WAIVERS 

 No
failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Lender, any right or remedy under this Deed shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other exercise, or the
exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

discharge (whether in respect of the obligations of the Chargor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made in whole or in part or any arrangement is made on the faith of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or
must be restored on insolvency, liquidation or otherwise (without limitation), the liability of the Chargor under this Deed shall continue as if the discharge or arrangement had not occurred. The Lender may concede or compromise any claim that any
payment, security or other disposition is liable to avoidance or restoration. 
  

	33.	GOVERNING LAW 

 This Deed
and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it shall be governed by English law.

member of the Group under the Loan Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part. 
  

	2.	Reinstatement 

 If any
discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of the Borrower, the Chargor or any other member of the Group or any security for those obligations or otherwise) made by the Lender in whole or in part on the basis of any
payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of the Chargor under this Deed will continue or be reinstated as if the
discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred. 
  

	3.	Waiver of defences 

 The
obligations of the Chargor under this Deed will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Deed, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Deed (without limitation and whether or not known to
it or to the Lender) including: 
  

	 	(a)	any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, the Borrower, the Chargor or other person; 

 

	 	(b)	the release of the Borrower, the Chargor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any member of the Group;

	 	(d)	any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of the Borrower, the Chargor or any other person;

  

	 	(e)	any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of a Loan Document or any other
document or security including, without limitation, any change in the purpose of, any extension or increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Loan Document or other document or security; 

 

	 	(f)	any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Loan Document or any other document or security; or 

 

	 	(g)	any insolvency, administration or similar proceedings. 

  
  

28 

  

	4.	Guarantor Intent 

 Without
prejudice to the generality of clause 3 (Waiver of Defences), the Chargor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to
any of the Loan Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Loan Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: business acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling investor
distributions to be made; carrying out restructurings; refinancing existing facilities, refinancing any other indebtedness; making facilities available to new borrowers; any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or
amount might be made available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing. 
  

	5.	Immediate recourse 

 The
Chargor waives any right it may have of first requiring the Lender to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from the Chargor under this Deed. This waiver applies irrespective of any
law or any provision of a Loan Document to the contrary. 
  

	6.	Appropriations 

 Until all
amounts which may be or become payable by the Borrower, any other member of the Group and/or the Chargor under or in connection with the Loan Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, the Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

  

	 	(a)	refrain from applying or enforcing any other monies, security or rights held or received by the Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those
amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and the Chargor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and 

 

	 	(b)	hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any monies received from the Chargor or on account of the Chargor’s liability under this Deed.

  

	7.	Deferral of Guarantors’ rights 

 Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Borrower, any other member of the Group and/or the Chargor under or in connection with the Loan Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and
unless the Lender otherwise directs, the Chargor shall not exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Loan Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this
Deed: 
  

	 	(a)	to be indemnified by the Borrower, any other member of the Group or the Chargor; 

 

	 	(b)	to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of the Borrower’s, another Group member’s or the Chargor’s obligations under the Loan Documents;

  

	 	(c)	to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Lender under the Loan Documents or of any other guarantee
or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Loan Documents by the Lender; 

  
  

29 

  

	 	(d)	to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any member of the Group to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which the Chargor has
given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under clause 2.1 (Guarantee and indemnity); 

  

	 	(e)	to exercise any right of set-off against any member of the Group; and/or 

  

	 	(f)	to claim or prove as a creditor of any member of the Group in competition with the Lender. 

If the Chargor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or
distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Lender by the any member of the Group under or in connection with the Loan Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Lender and shall promptly pay
or transfer the same to the Lender. 
  

	8.	Additional security

guarantee is in addition to, and is not in any way prejudiced by, any other guarantee or security at the date of this guarantee or subsequently held by the Lender.

40Guaranty dated October 25, 2010

  
 Exhibit 10.1

 GUARANTY 
 October 25, 2010 
 We refer to the Agreement and Plan of
Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of September 27, 2010, among National Coal Corp. (the “Company”) and Ranger Energy Investments, LLC (“Parent”) and Ranger Coal Holdings, LLC (“Merger Sub”),
pursuant to which it is contemplated that the Company shall merge into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub being the surviving company, and all outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (other than shares held by the Company, Merger Sub, Parent or
any of their respective direct or indirect subsidiaries) shall be converted into the right to receive cash, all as more specifically set forth in the Merger Agreement. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the respective meanings
assigned to such terms in the Merger Agreement. 
 In consideration of the Company’s execution and delivery
of the Merger Agreement, James C. Justice Companies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“JCJC”), hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally, guarantees to the Company that JCJC will perform or satisfy, or cause the Parent to perform or
satisfy, or cause one or more affiliated or related entities of JCJC to perform or satisfy, Parent’s obligation (the “Guaranteed Obligation”) to deposit funds with the Disbursing Agent pursuant to Section 2.4(a) of the Merger
Agreement if, as and when such obligation becomes due. Under no circumstances will the aggregate liability of JCJC under this Guaranty exceed $9,000,000.00. JCJC represents and warrants to the Company that it has the financial capacity to pay,
fulfill and perform its liabilities and obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligation under this Guaranty, and all funds necessary for JCJC to pay, fulfill and perform such obligations under this Guaranty shall be readily available to JCJC
or one or more affiliated or related entities of JCJC if, as and when needed for so long as this Guaranty shall remain in effect. 
 Neither this Guaranty nor the rights of the Company under this Guaranty shall be assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, by the Company without the prior written consent of JCJC. This Guaranty is
a continuing guaranty and may not be revoked or terminated and shall remain in full force and effect and shall be binding on JCJC and its successors and assigns until the entire Guaranteed Obligation has been satisfied in full. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Guaranty shall automatically terminate upon the earliest of (i) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1 of the Merger Agreement, or (ii) the satisfaction of Parent’s obligations
under Section 2.4(a) of the Merger Agreement. 
 JCJC’s obligations pursuant to this Guaranty are
subject to all rights, claims, counterclaims, causes of action, defenses and remedies to which Parent or Merger Sub may be entitled. This is a guarantee of payment and performance and not collectability. JCJC hereby waives diligence, presentment,
demand of performance, filing of any claim, any right to require any proceeding first against Parent or Merger Sub, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever in connection with the performance of its obligations set forth in this Guaranty.

 JCJC hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any rights that it may now have or hereafter may acquire
against Parent or Merger Sub that arise from the existence, payment, performance, or enforcement of JCJC’s liabilities and obligations with respect to the Guaranteed 

 
Obligation under or in respect of this Guaranty or any other agreement in connection therewith, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution
or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Company against Parent or Merger Sub, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises at law, in equity or under contract, including, without limitation, the right to
take or receive from Parent or Merger Sub, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, and JCJC agrees it will not exercise any such rights
unless and until all the entire Guaranteed Obligation shall have been paid in full in immediately available funds. If any amount shall be paid to JCJC in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full in
immediately available funds of the Guaranteed Obligation, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Company, shall be segregated from other property and funds of JCJC and shall be paid or delivered to the Company in the
same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment), and be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligation, if, as and when the Guaranteed Obligation is due in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. 

The Company acknowledges that Merger Sub is a newly formed entity with no significant assets and that Parent is a
recently formed entity with limited assets. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Guaranty, the Merger Agreement or any document or instrument delivered contemporaneously herewith or therewith, by its acceptance of the
benefits of this Guaranty, the Company acknowledges and agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates (i) has any right of recovery under this Guaranty against, and no liability under this Guaranty shall attach to, the former, current or
future stockholders, members, directors, officers, employees, managers, agents, Affiliates or assignees of JCJC, of Parent, of Merger Sub or of any former, current or future stockholder, director, officer, employee, member, manager, Affiliate, agent
or assignee of any of the foregoing (collectively, but not including JCJC, Parent or Merger Sub, each a “JCJC Affiliate”), or (ii) has any right of recovery against, and no liability shall attach to JCJC or any JCJC Affiliate for any
liability or obligation arising under or in connection with the Merger Agreement, the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (other than a claim against JCJC under this Guaranty), whether by or through attempted
piercing of the corporate or limited liability company veil, by or on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub against JCJC or a JCJC Affiliate, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any Law or otherwise.
The Company’s agreement in the preceding sentence is based on JCJC’s representation that it has sufficient liquid assets available to fund the payment of the maximum Guaranty Obligation as set forth in this Guaranty. The Company hereby
covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, directly or indirectly, and shall cause its respective Affiliates not to institute, any proceeding or bring any other claim arising under, or in connection with, the Merger Agreement, the Merger or
any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or otherwise relating thereto, against a JCJC Affiliate or, other than its right to recover from JCJC under this Guaranty for up to the amount of the Guaranteed Obligation (subject to the
limitations described herein), against JCJC. Recourse against JCJC under this Guaranty shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company and all of its Affiliates against JCJC and any JCJC Affiliate (other than Parent and Merger Sub) in respect
of any liabilities or obligations arising under, or in connection with, the Merger Agreement, the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Nothing set forth in this Guaranty shall confer or give or shall be construed to
confer or give to any Person, other than JCJC and the Company (including any Person acting in a representative 

  
 2 

 
capacity), any rights or remedies against any Person other than JCJC and the Company as expressly set forth herein. 

The Company acknowledges that JCJC is agreeing to enter into this Guaranty in reliance on the provisions set forth in the
preceding paragraph. The preceding paragraph shall survive termination of this Guaranty. 
 This Guaranty
constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, and statements, both written and oral, between or among the Company and JCJC or any of their Affiliates with respect to its subject matter. This Guaranty shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law, provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws in any other jurisdiction. This
Guaranty may be executed in one or more counterparts.
