(iii) If and to the extent that the Self-Bonds at Active and Inactive Sites have not been replaced with Surety Bonds or other acceptable forms of Penal Bonds as contemplated in Sections 3(b)(i)(2), 3(b)(i)(3) and 3(b)(ii) above on or before the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall place in escrow an amount of cash equal to: (1) the amount of collateral required to collateralize bonds not yet issued pursuant to the Active Sites Commitment Letter; (2) the amount of remaining collateral previously allocated by the Debtors and the First Lien Lenders to obtain bonds for the Active Sites and Inactive Sites; and (3) an additional $10,000,000 or such lesser amount as may be necessary to provide a Cash Bond for all Active and Inactive Sites, including any Not Started Sites that are deemed to be “Inactive Sites,” for which a Surety Bond has not then been posted (the “Interim Contribution”), which Interim Contribution shall be payable to the Department as a Cash Bond in the event that the Reorganized Debtors fail to bond all Active and Inactive Sites within the timeframes provided above. To the extent payable, the Interim Contribution shall be in addition to all other funding provided by the Reorganized Debtors and the Purchaser pursuant to this Settlement Agreement and the Reclamation Funding Agreement and shall be set aside from funds that otherwise would be distributed to the First Lien Lenders under the Plan. The Reorganized Debtors may use the funds held in escrow to obtain Surety Bonds or Collateral Bonds for the Active Sites and Inactive Sites. If, at any time, the amount of Self-Bonds outstanding at Active Sites and Inactive Sites, including any Not Started Sites that are deemed to be “Inactive Sites,” is less than the amount of the Interim Contribution, the Reorganized Debtors shall remit the difference to the First Lien Agent so long as such difference is at least $250,000. Once all Self-Bonds at the Active Sites and Inactive Sites, including any Not Started Sites that are deemed to be “Inactive Sites,” have been replaced with Surety Bonds or other acceptable Penal Bonds, the Reorganized Debtors shall remit the remaining amount of the Interim Contribution to the First Lien Agent.

(iv) The Debtors and the Department have reviewed their records and evaluated the current amounts of the self-bonded obligations at the Active, Inactive and Not Started Sites that are required to be bonded pursuant to this Section 3(b). The Parties agree that Exhibit 1 accurately sets forth the current aggregate amounts of those self-bonded obligations and that the aggregate amount

of the bonding obligations at those sites may be increased only in accordance with the Mining Laws at the time of mid-term permit review or permit renewal, unless the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors have previously submitted an increase in the bond amount prior to the posting of Penal Bonds in accordance with this Section 3(b).

(v) In the event that the Reorganized Debtors decide to commence or recommence mining operations at any Reclaim-Only Site, they may do so only upon posting Surety Bonds or other acceptable forms of Penal Bonds and compliance with all other applicable Mining Laws with respect to such Reclaim-Only Site.

(i) On or before the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall post an additional $24,000,000 in financial assurance in the form of a Cash Bond or Letter of Credit with the West Virginia State Treasurer’s Office for any and all sites located in the State that will be covered by a Self-Bond on and after the Effective Date.

Section 3(c)(i) hereof shall be in addition to the existing $15,000,000 Letter of Credit posted pursuant to the Consent Order, which Letter of Credit shall remain in full force and effect or be substituted by a replacement Letter of Credit or Cash Bond on terms in accordance with applicable West Virginia law and acceptable to the Department, it being agreed that the terms of the existing Letter of Credit are acceptable. The Cash Bond or Letter of Credit issued pursuant to Section 3(c)(i) hereof and such existing Letter of Credit and any replacement Letter of Credit or Cash Bond are referred to herein as the “Pool Bond.”

(iii) Until the Reorganized Debtors have replaced all Self-Bonds with Penal Bonds that satisfy applicable law, the Pool Bond will remain in place and may be drawn down and applied by the Department in whole or in part upon its revocation of any of the issued and outstanding Self-Bonded Retained Permits and declaration of forfeiture and demand for payment of the associated Self-Bond(s).

(iv) The Pool Bond shall be returned by the Department to the Reorganized Debtors when all Self-Bonded Mining Sites have been covered by Penal Bonds in accordance with West Virginia law or Fully Reclaimed, whichever comes first. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall prevent the Reorganized Debtors from converting the Pool Bond into site-specific Penal Bonds when the aggregate amount of reclamation obligations at the Self-Bonded Mining Sites has been reduced to $39,000,000 or lower.

(d) Reduction in Self-Bonded Reclamation Obligations. The Reorganized Debtors shall reduce the existing Self-Bonded obligations with respect to Reclaim-Only Sites as of the Effective Date by: (i) 25% of the initial amount of the Self-Bonded obligations on such Mining Sites by December 31, 2020; (ii) 50% of the initial amount of the Self-Bonded obligations on such Mining Sites by December 31, 2023; and (iii) 100% of the initial amount of the Self-Bonded obligations on such Mining Sites by the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, by which time the remaining Retained Permits on the Reclaim-Only Sites shall be fully bonded with Penal Bonds in the amount determined in accordance with applicable State law and rules. The calculation of the required reduction in Self-Bonds shall not take into account any existing Penal Bonds or the amount of the Pool Bond until the aggregate amount of Self-Bonds is less than $39,000,000, and the Pool Bond has been converted to site-specific Penal Bonds.

(e) Reaffirmation and Collateralization of Self-Bonds and Guaranties.

(i) Except to the extent replaced by Penal Bonds in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Settlement Agreement, the Debtors, for and on behalf of themselves and the Reorganized Debtors, reaffirm all of their remaining Self-Bonds existing on the Effective Date of the Plan and shall, as reasonably requested by the Department on and after the Effective Date, submit revised applications for any remaining Self-Bonds.

(ii) ANR, for and on behalf of itself and Reorganized ANR, hereby reaffirms its obligations under the Self-Bond Corporate Guarantee dated December 13, 2012 (the “Guarantee”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3, and the Reorganized Debtors shall, as reasonably requested by the Department on and after the Effective Date, provide new guaranties of all Self-Bonds remaining in existence.

(iii) The Plan provides that Alpha Natural Resources Holdings, Inc. and ANR, Inc. will be established pursuant to the Plan and shall replace Reorganized ANR as the holding companies for the equity interests of the Reorganized Debtors from and after the Effective Date. On and as of the Effective Date, ANR, Inc. shall, in connection with the Restructuring Transactions, assume the obligations of Reorganized ANR under the Guarantee, and both Alpha Natural Resources Holdings, Inc. and ANR, Inc. shall, on the Effective Date, execute guaranties, substantially in the form of the Guarantee, of all Self-Bonds remaining in existence on and after the Effective Date.

(iv) All remaining Self-Bonds and the existing and new guaranties shall be secured by: (1) the Pool Bond; (2) the funds in the Restricted Cash Accounts; and (3) all other Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement); provided, however, that the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations under any remaining Self-Bonds and the obligations of each of the guarantors shall not be limited by the existence or amount of such collateral. On the Effective Date, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors shall execute and deliver to the Department a

collateral security agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 4 (the “Security Agreement”).

4. Establishment and Funding of the Restricted Cash Accounts.

(iii) Any collateral returned to or received by the Reorganized Debtors by, from or with respect to any issuer of any Surety Bond(s) issued in the State shall, with the Department’s prior approval, either be deposited in the Restricted Cash Reclamation Account or used to provide acceptable financial assurance for Reclaim-Only Sites that are still covered by a Self-Bond.

(c) All funds deposited into the Restricted Cash Accounts may be used solely to fund reclamation, mitigation and water treatment and management obligations in the State in accordance with the terms of this Settlement Agreement and, with respect to funds in the Water Treatment Restricted Cash Account, the Reclamation Funding Agreement.

To the extent that the Reorganized Debtors seek to sell assets associated with the Delbarton, Mammoth or Marfork Mining Complexes (whether through an asset sale or equity sale at any level that includes such assets) at any time after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may do so only with the prior approval of the Department, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In considering approval of the sale, the Department may consider the effect of such sale upon the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to Fully Reclaim or fully bond its remaining sites and the amount of the contribution of sale proceeds to the State’s Restricted Cash Reclamation Account. With respect to all other Material Asset Sales involving mining assets located in the State or Retained Permits, the Reorganized Debtors shall provide reasonable notice of the proposed asset sale, consult with the Department regarding the proposed sale, and comply with Section 4(b)(ii) with respect to the proceeds thereof.

(c) No Dividends. Until the Reorganized Debtors have fulfilled their obligations to bond and fully fund reclamation, mitigation and water management and treatment in accordance with this Settlement Agreement, ANR, Inc., Alpha Natural Resource Holdings, Inc., and any other issuer of equity interests distributed to creditors under the Plan, other than the Purchaser or any of its subsidiaries, shall not make any distributions on account of any of their equity interests; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit the Reorganized Debtors from making payments or otherwise satisfying their obligations pursuant to the Plan with respect to the Reorganized ANR Contingent Revenue Payment.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in Sections 7(a) and (b) hereof shall: (i) limit or interfere with the Department’s exercise of discretion with respect to approving any permit transfer or other required regulatory approval; (ii) alter or affect the obligations of the Reorganized Debtors or any of their successors or assigns, as the case may be, to perform or complete reclamation of all of its or their respective permitted sites in accordance with applicable Reclamation Agreements, consent decrees and this Settlement Agreement; or (iii) apply to the Sale Transaction.

8. Releases.

(a) Subject to the Reorganized Debtors providing bonding for the West Virginia Permits at all Active and Inactive Sites, including any Not Started Sites that are deemed to be “Inactive Sites” (which may include the Reorganized Debtors’ deposit into escrow of the funds referenced in Section 3(b)(iii) above as a Cash Bond), in each case in the aggregate amounts set forth in Exhibit 1 attached hereto, the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the terms of this Settlement Agreement and the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Department agrees that as of the Effective Date:

(i) (1) The Department shall release the Debtors’ shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents from any claims, violations or conditions arising prior to the Effective Date and (2) the Department shall not link any of the Debtors’ shareholders, directors, officers, employees or agents to the Applicant/Violator System for any claims, violations or conditions arising prior to the Effective Date. The Parties agree that nothing in the foregoing shall (1) release or affect the liability of any of the Reorganized Debtors or their shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or other owners or controllers (as such term is defined in the West Virginia Surface Mining Reclamation Rule, W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-2.85) for any claims or violations with respect to the Retained Assets and the Retained Permits first arising after the Effective Date (whether or not the conditions giving rise to such claims or violations arose prior to or after the Effective Date) (a “Post-Effective Date Violation”); or (2) prevent any of the Reorganized Debtors’ shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and other owners and controllers of the Reorganized Debtors from being linked to the Applicant/Violator System on account of any Post-Effective Date Violation; provided, however, that the Department shall not take any action against any of the foregoing parties on account of any Post-Effective Date Violation based solely on a failure to undertake reclamation obligations in a timely manner, where such reclamation obligations are being performed and satisfied in accordance with the terms of applicable Reclamation Agreements, consent decrees or this Settlement Agreement.

(ii) The Department shall release the Purchaser, all of its subsidiaries, the First Lien Lenders, the First Lien Agent, the DIP Lenders, the DIP Agent, any affiliate of any of the foregoing (including any entity that is or becomes an affiliate of the Purchaser as a result of the Sale Transaction), and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from any claims, violations or conditions (1) arising prior to the Effective Date or (2) with respect to the Retained Permits or the Retained Assets, in each case except to the extent that any or all of such entities or people after the Effective Date (x) are directors, officers, employees and agents of the Reorganized Debtors, or otherwise operate or own or control (as such term is defined in the West Virginia Surface Mining Reclamation Rule, W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-2.85) the Retained Permits, Retained Assets, or the Reorganized Debtors after the Effective Date or (y) constitute or become an operator, or own or control (as such term is defined in the West Virginia Surface Mining Reclamation Rule, W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-2.85) an operator, of the Transferred Permits or any other permit. For avoidance of doubt, none of the (i) relationships between the Reorganized Debtors and the Purchaser based on the post-Effective Date temporary exchange of administrative and other similar ministerial services and temporary ministerial collaboration between the Reorganized Debtors and the Purchaser, in each case solely to the extent necessary to effectuate the Sale Transaction, (ii) funding obligations of the Purchaser arising under the Reclamation Funding Agreement and (iii) the consummation of the Sale Transaction shall be construed to classify or give any right to the Department to classify or assert the Purchaser or its subsidiaries or

their respective shareholders, directors, officers or employees as an owner or controller (as such term is defined in of the West Virginia Surface Mining Reclamation Rule, W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-2.85) of the Reorganized Debtors.

(iii) The Department shall release the Reorganized Debtors and their directors, officers, employees and agents from any claims, violations or conditions with respect to the Transferred Permits, except to the extent that any or all of such entities or persons are also employed by, or otherwise own or control (as such term is defined in the West Virginia Surface Mining Reclamation Rule, W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-2.85), the Purchaser after the Effective Date. For avoidance of doubt, none of the (i) relationships between the Reorganized Debtors and the Purchaser based on the post-Effective Date temporary exchange of administrative and other similar ministerial services and temporary ministerial collaboration between the Reorganized Debtors and the Purchaser, in each case solely to the extent necessary to effectuate the Sale Transaction, (ii) funding obligations of the Purchaser arising under the Reclamation Funding Agreement and (iii) the consummation of the Sale Transaction shall be construed to classify or give any right to the Department to classify or assert the Reorganized Debtors or their subsidiaries or their respective shareholders, directors, officers or employees as an owner or controller (as such term is defined in of the West Virginia Surface Mining Reclamation Rule, W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-2.85) of the Purchaser.

(b) This Settlement Agreement shall be incorporated by reference into the Confirmation Order. To the extent this Settlement Agreement conflicts or is otherwise inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, the Settlement Agreement shall govern.

9. Events of Default.

(a) Each of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Settlement Agreement:

(i) The failure of the Purchaser to timely make any payment in accordance with the Reclamation Funding Agreement within ten days after it is due;

(ii) The failure of the Reorganized Debtors to timely contribute any amounts required to be contributed to the Restricted Cash Accounts in accordance with the Reclamation Funding Agreement within ten days after the contribution is due;

(iii) The failure of the Reorganized Debtors to timely comply with their obligations in accordance with any Reclamation Agreement or any consent order with the Department;

(iv) The Reorganized Debtors’ actual expenditures from the Restricted Cash Accounts exceed their budgeted expenditures by the greater of 20% or $500,000 in the aggregate for any Quarterly Period; and

(v) The Reorganized Debtors file a voluntary petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Code, or an involuntary petition is filed against the Reorganized Debtors that is not dismissed within 60 days.

(b) If an Event of Default occurs, the Department may provide notice to the Reorganized Debtors and the Purchaser of such Event of Default (the “Notice of Default”). The Reorganized Debtors and the Purchaser shall have until the date that is 30 days from the date of their receipt of the Notice of Default (the “Cure Deadline”) to cure any Event of Default arising pursuant to Section 9(a)(iii) hereof.

(c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and, with respect to any Event of Default arising pursuant to Section 9(a)(iii) hereof, its continuation until after the Cure Deadline, the Department may:

(i) terminate this Settlement Agreement;

(ii) deliver a notice of termination of the right to use cash in the Restricted Cash Accounts and require that such funds be delivered to the Department;

(iii) draw down on any letter of credit or other collateral posted pursuant to this Settlement Agreement, including without limitation any funds in the Restricted Cash Accounts;

(iv) revoke any or all of the Reorganized Debtors’ permits in the State, including the Retained Permits, and forfeit the amount of any bonds therefor; and/or

(v) take any other regulatory or enforcement action permitted by law.

(d) The Department shall not be required upon the occurrence of an Event of Default to take any or all of the foregoing actions, and its failure to do so at any time shall not constitute a waiver on the part of the Department of any right to take any action upon the occurrence of any Event of Default.

(e) The termination of this Settlement Agreement shall have no effect on the obligations of the Reorganized Debtors hereunder, the obligations of the Reorganized Debtors or the Purchaser under the Reclamation Funding Agreement, the obligations of the Reorganized Debtors to Fully Reclaim all of their permitted Mining Sites in accordance with the Retained Permits and all applicable state and federal laws and otherwise comply with applicable state and federal laws, or any of the releases granted under this Settlement Agreement.

(f) Without limiting any other provision of this Settlement Agreement, nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed or construed to limit or otherwise affect the authority or ability of the Department to issue notices of violation or cessation orders, revoke any permit, forfeit any bond or take any other regulatory action against the Reorganized Debtors, the Purchaser or any other person or entity or in respect of any permits or mining sites in the State, whether before, during or after the occurrence of an Event of Default or in the absence of an Event of Default.

(g) An Event of Default by the Reorganized Debtors of the type described in Section 9(a)(ii) through (v) shall not be construed to require the Purchaser to cure such defaults or otherwise make the Purchaser liable for such defaults.

10. Conditions to Effectiveness. The following shall be conditions to the effectiveness of this Settlement Agreement:

(a) This Settlement Agreement, the Reclamation Funding Agreement and the Water Treatment Stipulation shall have been approved by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to the order confirming the Plan;

(b) The Plan, as it may be amended consistent with the terms of this Settlement Agreement, shall be confirmed on or before July 15, 2016;

(c) The Confirmation Order shall include customary carve-outs from the release, discharge, injunction, exculpation and similar provisions of the Plan and Confirmation Order for governmental units; provided, however, that such carve-outs shall not limit any releases provided under this Settlement Agreement;

(g) There shall be no material adverse changes to the business plan and projections of the Purchaser or the Reorganized Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court prior to May 25, 2016 or the business or operations of the Purchaser or the Reorganized Debtors, taken as a whole.

11. Settlement Agreement and the Plan. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Settlement Agreement and the Plan with respect to the terms hereof, this Settlement Agreement shall control.

12. Covenants, Cooperation and Good Faith Efforts.

(a) Reclamation Agreements, Plans and Budgets. The Reorganized Debtors and the Department agree to cooperate and work in good faith with each other to negotiate Reclamation Agreements with respect to the Retained Permits and develop the Long-Term Budget and the Semi-Annual Budgets for the Retained Permits such that reclamation, mitigation and water treatment work is sequenced and otherwise conducted in a manner that (a) protects the public health and safety, (b) complies with state and federal law and (c) properly manages the available financial resources to help ensure the cost-effective and timely completion of Full Reclamation and the release of all bonds associated with the Retained Permits.

(b) Use of Resources. The Reorganized Debtors and the Department agree to work in good faith with each other to ensure that the reclamation, mitigation, and water treatment work with respect to the Retained Permits is sequenced and otherwise conducted in a manner that maximizes the reclamation work that can be completed with the resources available.

(c) Timely Reclamation. If the Reorganized Debtors are performing the reclamation, mitigation, and water treatment obligations under the Retained Permits in accordance with this Settlement Agreement, the time frames and provisions of the West Virginia Permits or any applicable Reclamation Agreements or consent orders, the Department shall take no action to forfeit the reclamation bonds relating to the Retained Permits or issue any notice of noncompliance or cessation order based solely on a failure to undertake reclamation in a timely manner. The Department otherwise reserves all rights to take all enforcement actions consistent with applicable State and federal law.

13. Acknowledgement. The Purchaser acknowledges that, as of Effective Date:

(a) The Purchaser shall be deemed to be an operator or owner and controller under applicable Mining Laws with respect to all of the Transferred Permits; provided, however, that the Purchaser’s status as such may and shall change in accordance with applicable federal and State law as facts and circumstances change; and

(b) Each transferee of a Transferred Permit must comply with all applicable laws with respect to such Transferred Permit, including all applicable laws with respect to the transfer of such Transferred Permit.

14. Permit Transfers and Phased Bond Releases. After the Effective Date, the Transferred Permits will be assigned and transferred to the Purchaser (or its designee) in accordance with the terms of the APA, and the transferee of the Transferred Permits will assume all liabilities and obligations associated with the Transferred Permits.

(a) Schedule for Permit Transfers. As promptly as practicable following the closing of the Sale Transaction but, in any event, by no later than 30 days after the Effective Date, the Purchaser will submit applications for transfer of the Transferred Permits to the Department. The transfer applications will be advertised in accordance with, and otherwise comply with, applicable regulatory requirements. The Purchaser and the Debtors, on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors, agree to respond on a timely basis to

comments received on such applications. The Parties agree to cooperate and work in good faith with each other such that the Transferred Permits are transferred as proposed in this Settlement Agreement.

(b) Phased Bond Releases. Upon submittal of the appropriate replacement bonds to the Department, any corresponding reclamation bonds originally issued to the Debtors with respect to such Transferred Permits will be released in accordance with the standard permit procedures under applicable State and federal law.

(c) Permit Transfers Incidental to Certain Plan Transactions. The Plan contemplates that the Debtors will modify the corporate form of certain of the Debtors and establish one or more new ultimate parent entities of the Debtors (collectively, the “Ministerial Plan Transactions”). To the extent the Ministerial Plan Transactions, as a technical matter, may require updates or modifications of any of the West Virginia Permits that constitute permit transfers under applicable law in addition to the ultimate transfer of the Transferred Permits to the Purchaser, the Reorganized Debtors and the Department agree to cooperate and work in good faith with each other to effectuate such updates, modifications or transfers upon the Reorganized Debtors’ application therefor. Together with the first application for such updates, modifications, and transfers, the Reorganized Debtors agree to pay the sum of $50,000 to the Department, in addition to paying any associated advertising costs and expenses, as a blanket fee to offset the Department’s administrative costs in connection with any updates or modifications, including name changes or permit transfers required as a technical matter due to the Ministerial Plan Transactions, of West Virginia Permits required solely for purposes of effectuating the Ministerial Plan Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, any transfers of West Virginia Permits between entities other than as described in this Section 14(c) shall not constitute Ministerial Plan Transactions and shall be subject to transfer fees, if any, under applicable Mining Laws.

15. Third Party Beneficiaries. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Third Party Beneficiaries are intended to be and hereby are acknowledged to be the sole third party beneficiaries of this Settlement Agreement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Third Party Beneficiaries have no duty of performance under this Settlement Agreement to any Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, all of the provisions of this Settlement Agreement expressly or impliedly inuring to the benefit of the Third Party Beneficiaries shall survive the expiration, termination or the supersession of this Settlement Agreement, in each case for any reason, and shall remain fully effective for the benefit of the Third Party Beneficiaries and fully enforceable by the Third Party Beneficiaries against each Party notwithstanding such expiration, termination or superseding cause. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, except as explicitly set forth in this Section, nothing in this Settlement Agreement is intended to benefit or create any right or cause of action in, or on behalf of, any person other than the Parties hereto (and their affiliated persons and entities who are intended to be beneficiaries of the releases and settlements set forth herein).

16. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Settlement Agreement shall be binding on the Parties and their successors and assigns, including any trustee appointed under the Bankruptcy Code and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their successors and assigns.

20. No Reliance. Each Party represents and warrants that in entering into this Settlement Agreement it is relying on its own judgment, belief and knowledge and, as applicable, on that of any attorney it has retained to represent it in this matter. In entering into this Settlement Agreement, no Party is relying on any representation or statement made by any other Party or any person representing such other Party.

21. Modification or Amendment. This Settlement Agreement may be modified or amended only by written agreement executed by each of the Parties and, with regards to any provision impacting the First Lien Lenders or the First Lien Agent, the written consent of the First Lien Lenders or the First Lien Agent, as applicable.

22. Further Assurances. From and after the Effective Date, each of the Parties agrees to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to execute or cause to be executed and deliver or cause to be delivered all such agreements, instruments and documents and take or cause to be taken all such further actions as may reasonably be necessary from time to time to carry out the intent and purpose of this Settlement Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

23. Construction. This Settlement Agreement has been drafted through a cooperative effort of all Parties, and none of the Parties shall be considered the drafter of this Settlement Agreement so as to give rise to any presumption of convention regarding construction of this document. All terms of this Settlement Agreement were negotiated at arms’-length, and this Settlement Agreement was prepared and executed without fraud, duress, undue influence or coercion of any kind exerted by any of the Parties upon the other. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Settlement Agreement and the Plan, the terms of this Settlement Agreement shall govern.

24. Headings. Titles and headings in this Settlement Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to affect the interpretation or construction of the Settlement Agreement.

25. Execution in Counterpart. This Settlement Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. All signatures of the Parties to this Settlement Agreement may be transmitted by facsimile or by electronic mail, and such transmission will, for all purposes, be deemed to be the original signature of such party whose signature it reproduces and will be binding upon such party.

26. Severability. If any provision of this Settlement Agreement is determined to be prohibited or unenforceable, then such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof.

(the “Purchaser”); the Illinois Department of Natural Resources; the Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet, Department for Natural Resources; the United States Department of the Interior, Office of Surface Mining, Reclamation and Enforcement, in its capacity as the regulatory authority over surface mining operations in the State of Tennessee (“OSMRE”); the Virginia Department of Mines, Minerals and Energy; and the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection (collectively, the “Regulatory Authorities” and, together with the Debtors and the Purchaser, the “Parties”).

WHEREAS, the Regulatory Authorities have issued certain permits (collectively, the “Permits”) to the Debtors in connection with the Debtors’ operation and reclamation of certain mines and facilities within their respective states or commonwealths (collectively, the “States”);

WHEREAS, the Debtors entered into a transaction (the “Sale Transaction”) pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits associated therewith), with the Purchaser and attached as Exhibit I.A.250 to the Plan to be entered into on or prior to the Effective Date providing for (a) the sale of certain of the Debtors’ assets to the Purchaser, (b) the assumption of certain of the Debtors’ liabilities by the Purchaser (c) the transfer of certain of the Permits (collectively, the “Transferred Permits”) to the Purchaser and (d) certain transactions necessary to effectuate the foregoing;

WHEREAS, the Debtors intend that the Reorganized Debtors will retain substantially all of the Debtors’ assets that are not sold pursuant to the Sale Transaction (collectively, the “Retained Assets”);

WHEREAS, a primary purpose of the Reorganized Debtors will be to hold and satisfy their obligations under the Permits associated with the Retained Assets (collectively, the “Retained Permits”) and to complete all reclamation requirements of the Permits associated with

the Retained Assets including the management of reclamation activities at certain sites with only reclamation activities to be completed (collectively, the “Reclaim-Only Sites”);

WHEREAS, attached hereto as Exhibit 1 is a schedule identifying each of the Retained Permits associated with a Reclaim-Only Site by State;

WHEREAS, contemporaneously herewith the Debtors and the Purchaser together have entered into separate settlement agreements (collectively, the “State Settlement Agreements”) with each of the Regulatory Authorities to define the terms and framework for accomplishing mine land reclamation and associated environmental restoration and water treatment (including long term water treatment) in their respective States in accordance with the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977, as amended, 30 U.S.C. §§ 1201, et seq. (“SMCRA”), its state analogues and other applicable mining and environmental related statutes and regulations (collectively with SMCRA, the “Mining Laws”) on Mining Complexes operated under Permits previously issued to ANR and its subsidiaries;

WHEREAS, contemporaneously herewith the Debtors, the Purchaser and Citicorp North America, Inc. (the “First Lien Agent”) have entered into that certain Stipulation Regarding Water Treatment Obligations (the “Water Treatment Stipulation”) with the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) to define the framework and funding for the fulfillment of the Reorganized Debtors’ and the Purchaser’s obligations under the EPA Consent Decree (as defined in the Water Treatment Stipulation) and the Reorganized Debtors’ other water treatment obligations;

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to enter into this Reclamation Funding Agreement to provide certain funding for the reclamation, mitigation and water treatment (including long-term water treatment) and management work to be done on the Reclaim-Only Sites; and

WHEREAS, the terms of this Reclamation Funding Agreement are incorporated into the Plan, and the Parties intend that this Reclamation Funding Agreement and the related State Settlement Agreements shall be subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court in connection with confirmation of the Plan;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the execution by each of the Regulatory Authorities of their respective State Settlement Agreements and of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed them in the Plan. In addition to the terms defined above, the following terms have the following meanings herein:

(a) “Effective Date” means the date upon which the Plan shall become effective in accordance with its terms.

(b) “Free Cash Flow” means cash generated by the Reorganized Debtors in an amount equal to earnings before taxes, multiplied by an amount equal to one minus the tax rate applicable to the Reorganized Debtors, plus an add-back of all depreciation and amortization expenses, plus or minus, as

applicable, any decrease or increase to the Reorganized Debtors’ net working capital, minus capital expenditures, measured for any Quarterly Period.

(c) “Funding Threshold Amount” means the funded amount of a State’s Restricted Cash Reclamation Account that is equal to 125% of the remaining Total Cost of Reclamation in that State.

(d) “Fully Reclaim,” “Fully Reclaimed” or “Full Reclamation” means, as to any or all Retained Permits, the completion of reclamation, as provided for by the applicable Mining Laws.

(e) “Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts” means a separate interest bearing segregated deposit account for each of the Regulatory Authorities established pursuant to the applicable State Settlement Agreement in which account such Regulatory Authority shall hold a first priority security interest, perfected by “control” under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code.

(f) “Total Cost of Reclamation” means the estimate of the total cost of reclamation, mitigation, the calculated net present value of the cost of water treatment for the period of time specified by the Regulatory Authority’s standards for long-term water treatment and management associated with the Reorganized Debtors’ mining operations. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reorganized Debtors’ proposed Total Cost of Reclamation for Retained Permits in each State shall be reviewed by each applicable Regulatory Authority for completeness and reasonableness of approach.

2. Funding of the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts by the Purchaser.

(a) Periodic Payments. In accordance with the allocations determined pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Purchaser shall pay the aggregate amount of $50,000,000 into the various Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts as follows:

(i) $8,000,000 immediately upon the Effective Date;

(ii) $10,000,000 on the anniversary of the Effective Date in each of 2017, 2018, and 2019; and

(iii) $12,000,000 on the anniversary of the Effective Date in 2020.

(b) Contingent Payment Obligation. In addition to the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof, and in accordance with the allocations set forth in Section 5 hereof, the Purchaser shall pay up to an aggregate amount of $50,000,000 (the “Contingent Payment Obligation Cap”) into the various Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts as a contingent payment obligation from 2021 through 2025 (the “Contingent Payment Obligation”).

(i) The Purchaser shall make Contingent Payment Obligation contributions into the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts up to the Contingent Payment Obligation Cap only in the following circumstances:

(1) If and to the extent that the Reorganized Debtors do not contribute $50,000,000 of Free Cash Flow into the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts through December 31, 2020 as set forth in Section 4(b) hereof; and

(2) If the Reorganized Debtors make any Reorganized ANR Contingent Revenue Payment (as such term is defined in the Plan) that reduces the amount of Free Cash Flow that the Reorganized Debtors otherwise would have contributed to the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts had they not made such Reorganized ANR Contingent Revenue Payment, then a Contingent Payment Obligation will be payable in the amount of the difference between (A) the amount of Free Cash Flow that the Reorganized Debtors would have contributed to the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts had they not made such Reorganized ANR Contingent Revenue Payment and (B) the amount of Free Cash Flow actually contributed.

(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser’s obligations under Section 2(b)(i) hereof shall be cumulative up to the amount of the Contingent Payment Obligation Cap.

(iii) The Purchaser shall make any Contingent Payment Obligation contributions up to the Contingent Payment Obligation Cap according to the following schedule, solely to the extent due and payable as of the applicable payment date in accordance with Section 2(b)(i) hereof:

(1) $10,000,000 on the anniversary of the Effective Date in each of 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024; and

(2) The difference between any Contingent Payment Obligation contributions made and the Contingent Payment Obligation Cap on the anniversary of the Effective Date in 2025.

3. Limitations on Certain Transactions by the Purchaser. The Purchaser agrees that, for five years after the Effective Date, it will not sell all or substantially all of its assets unless either:

(a) the purchaser(s) of such assets agree(s) to assume the liabilities of the Purchaser under this Reclamation Funding Agreement; or

(b) such liabilities are otherwise satisfied or funded.

4. Funding of the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts by the Reorganized Debtors.

(a) Periodic Payments.

(i) In accordance with the allocations determined in accordance with Section 5 hereof, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay and deposit the aggregate amount of $109,000,000 into the various Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts through 2025.

(ii) Such payments shall be made in the following aggregate amounts: $5,000,000 in 2016, $10,000,000 in each of 2017 and 2018 and $12,000,000 in each year from 2019 through 2025.

(iii) All such payments shall be made in equal monthly installments in the year in which they are due. The Reorganized Debtors shall make the first payment on or before August 31, 2016 and the remaining payments on or before the last day of each subsequent month through December 2025.

(b) Excess Cash Flow Payments.

(i) In addition to the amounts to be paid pursuant to Section 4(a) above, and in accordance with the allocations determined pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay and deposit 50% of the Free Cash Flow that they generate into the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts. Such payments are over and above the amounts required to be paid in Section 4(a) above.

(ii) Such payments of Free Cash Flow shall be made with respect to each State until either: (1) all Reclaim-Only sites have been Fully Reclaimed and any long-term water treatment or water management obligations in such State are fully funded and have been covered by a method approved by the regulator for the applicable State (such as a long-term water treatment trust); or (2) the Funding Threshold Amount has been reached with respect to each State, it being understood that once the Funding Threshold Amount for a State has been reached, (A) the Free Cash Flow contribution obligation to the Restricted Cash Reclamation Account for the applicable State shall be reduced to an amount necessary to maintain such Funding Threshold Amount, until such time as all Reclaim-Only Sites have been Fully Reclaimed and (B) the remaining portion of the Free Cash Flow contribution shall be deposited into the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts of the remaining States in accordance with the allocations determined pursuant to Section 5 hereof, as adjusted.

(iii) The Free Cash Flow contributions required under this Section shall be paid within 30 days after each calendar quarter end, subject to reconciliation on an annual basis.

(i) Any collateral returned or received by the Reorganized Debtors from or with respect to any surety bond issuer that has issued bonds in only one State will be paid into the Restricted Cash Reclamation Account of that State or otherwise dealt with in accordance with any applicable agreement among the Reorganized Debtors and such State.

(ii) To the extent any collateral returned or received by the Reorganized Debtors from or with respect to any surety bond issuer whose bonds relate to permits in multiple States, such collateral shall be contributed to the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts for the applicable States: (1) in proportion to the dollar amounts of the bonds versus the amount of the collateral until the amount for any such State exceeds its Funding Threshold Amount; and (2) then to the other States in accordance with the allocations set forth in Section 5 hereof, as adjusted.

(d) In the event of a merger or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Reorganized Debtors, then all of the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations under Sections 4(a) above and 6(c) below shall either (i) be accelerated and paid in full on a net present value basis into the applicable Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts or (ii) be assumed by the purchaser or surviving entity, before or at the closing of such transaction; provided, however, that the Restructuring Transactions, including, without limitation, the NewCo Asset Sale, shall not be deemed to be mergers or sales within the meaning of this Section 4(d). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 4(d) shall:

(i) limit or interfere with any Regulatory Authority’s exercise of discretion with respect to approving any permit transfer or other required regulatory approval; or

(ii) alter or affect the obligations of the Reorganized Debtors or any of their successors or assigns, as the case may be, to perform or complete reclamation, mitigation and water treatment of all of its or their respective permitted sites in accordance with any applicable law, consent decree or other agreement.

5. Allocation of Periodic Contributions.

(a) Periodic contributions required under Sections 2 and 4 (collectively, the “Periodic Contributions”) shall be allocated to the applicable States as set forth in this Section 5.

(b) For the years 2016 through 2018, the Periodic Contributions shall be allocated among the various Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts based upon the

Debtors’ current relative asset retirement obligations in each State, as follows: 83% for West Virginia; 11.25% for Kentucky; 4% for Virginia; 1% for Illinois; and 0.75% for Tennessee.

(c) Within 90 days of the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall begin an evaluation of all of their Permits and shall develop a Total Cost of Reclamation for each State. Such evaluation may be the same as any asset retirement obligation analysis previously undertaken by the Debtors. A preliminary Total Cost of Reclamation for each State shall be developed by July 1, 2017 and provided to each of the States at that time for their review and comment. A final Total Cost of Reclamation shall be provided to each of the States for their review and comment by July 1, 2018.

(d) The allocation of Periodic Contributions to the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts shall be reassessed and adjusted bi-annually beginning on January 1, 2019 based upon the Total Cost of Reclamation in each of the States as of July 1, 2018, and the Periodic Contributions required under Sections 2 and 4 shall be made to the various Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts in accordance with such adjusted allocations.

(e) In the event that the Regulatory Authorities are unable to agree on adjusted allocations based upon the Total Cost of Reclamation, the allocations in Section 5(b) above shall continue to apply.

(f) With respect to Tennessee, once the Reclamation Trust (as defined in the State Settlement Agreement for Tennessee) is established, any funds in Tennessee’s Restricted Cash Reclamation Account, as well as future periodic contributions to such account, shall be paid into the Reclamation Trust.


6.	Funding of the Reorganized Debtors’ Water Treatment Obligations Pursuant to the Water Treatment Stipulation

(a) Pursuant to the Water Treatment Stipulation, the Reorganized Debtors will provide EPA and the Regulatory Authorities for the States in which their water treatment occurs (i) an annual summary of the expenditures on their water treatment for the previous year, (ii) an explanation of any material deviance (greater than 20%) in such expenditures from the prior year and (iii) a certification of a senior executive officer that an amount sufficient to cover the water treatment costs expected to occur in the following year has been included in the budget for that year. In addition, the Reorganized Debtors will provide EPA with copies of any budgets delivered to the Regulatory Authorities in accordance with the terms of the State Settlement Agreements.

(b) The First Lien Lender Contribution

(i) Pursuant to the Water Treatment Stipulation, on the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors, with the consent of the First Lien Lenders, shall pay from the First Lien Lenders’ collateral an additional $5 million to support the

Reorganized Debtors’ compliance with their water treatment obligations (the “First Lien Lender Contribution”).

(ii) The First Lien Lender Contribution will be allocated equally among the States to be used for water treatment and other approved projects to improve water quality.

(iii) On or prior to the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall create either of the following accounts (in either case, a “Water Treatment Restricted Cash Account”) with respect to each State to receive such State’s share of the First Lien Lender Contribution: (1) a segregated subaccount within the each State’s Restricted Cash Reclamation Account (as defined in the applicable State Settlement Agreement); or (2) a separate segregated restricted cash account. With respect to Tennessee, once the Water Treatment Trust (as defined in the State Settlement Agreement for Tennessee) is established, any funds in Tennessee’s Water Treatment Restricted Cash Account, as well as future periodic contributions to such account, shall be placed into the Tennessee Water Treatment Trust until the trust is fully funded as determined by OSMRE.

(i) Pursuant to the Water Treatment Stipulation, the Reorganized Debtors shall contribute $15 million into the Water Treatment Restricted Cash Accounts from 2017 through 2023 (the “Reorganized Debtor Contribution”) to fund compliance with their water treatment obligations, including their obligations under the EPA Consent Decree.

(ii) The Reorganized Debtor Contribution shall be paid in the following annual total amounts in equal quarterly installments on the first day of each calendar quarter beginning on July 1, 2017:



YEAR	PAYMENT DATES	AGGREGATE ANNUAL PAYMENT AMOUNT
2017	July 1, October 1	$1,000,000
2018	January 1, April 1, July 1, October 1	$1,500,000
2019	January 1, April 1, July 1, October 1	$2,500,000
2020	January 1, April 1, July 1, October 1	$2,500,000
2021	January 1, April 1, July 1, October 1	$2,500,000
2022	January 1, April 1, July 1, October 1	$2,500,000
2023	January 1, April 1, July 1, October 1	$2,500,000
Total		$15,000,000

(iii) The Reorganized Debtor Contribution for 2017 shall be divided equally among the States. Thereafter, (x) the Reorganized Debtors shall provide

20% of the Aggregate Annual Payment Amount to the Tennessee Water Treatment Trust (as defined in the Water Treatment Stipulation) until such requirement is terminated pursuant to subparagraph (iv) below and (y) the remainder of the annual Reorganized Debtor Contribution shall be divided among the other States according to the percentage of actual expenditures on water treatment in each State; provided that, each State shall receive a minimum of at least $25,000 each year. The Reorganized Debtors will track their spending on water treatment in each State and submit a report to the applicable Regulatory Authority and EPA by September 30 of each year detailing such expenditures for the period from July 1 to June 30 of the previous year.

(iv) Once the Tennessee Water Treatment Trust has been fully funded in accordance with its terms, subsequent Reorganized Debtor Contribution amounts shall be allocated among the other States in accordance with Section 6(c)(iii)(y) hereof.

(d) The Reorganized Debtors will cooperate and work in good faith with each Regulatory Authority to develop the minimum balance (the “Minimum Balance”) that will be maintained in the Water Treatment Restricted Cash Account for that State. The Minimum Balance may be adjusted by agreement between the Reorganized Debtors and the applicable Regulatory Authority on an annual basis; provided that, nothing herein requires the Reorganized Debtors to designate more than $1,000,000 as the aggregate amount of Minimum Balances among the Water Treatment Restricted Cash Accounts in 2016. The Reorganized Debtors shall provide EPA with a copy of the written agreement that establishes the Minimum Balance for each State.

(e) Funds in the Water Treatment Restricted Cash Accounts that are in excess of the Minimum Balance established for that account may be utilized to pay for water treatment expenses, water treatment system installations and reclamation activities that benefit water quality. The use of funds for water treatment expenses, including, without limitation, funds expended on chemicals, utilities, pond cleaning and maintenance of structures and systems, shall be included in the Semi-Annual Budget (as defined in the State Settlement Agreements) provided to the Regulatory Authority and EPA but shall not require the prior approval of the applicable Regulatory Agency or EPA. Any use of funds to install water treatment systems or to conduct reclamation activities that will benefit water quality shall be subject to the budgeting and approval provisions of the State Settlement Agreements. EPA and the applicable Regulatory Authority shall have the right to audit all expenditures from the Water Treatment Restricted Cash Accounts.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the funding to be provided to the Water Treatment Restricted Cash Accounts pursuant to the Water Treatment Stipulation or to the Restricted Cash Reclamation Accounts pursuant to this Reclamation Funding Agreement shall be used solely to fund the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations thereunder and shall not be used to assist or subsidize the Purchaser’s compliance.

Other than with respect to the Permitted Exclusions and any financing statements filed in favor of the Secured Party, no financing statement, fixture filing or other instrument similar in effect under any applicable law covering all or any part of the Collateral has been authorized by such Grantor to be filed in any filing or recording office, except for financing statements filed in connection with Liens set forth on Schedule 3.3 hereto.

3.4 Status of Security Interest.

(a) Upon the filing of financing statements naming such Grantor as “debtor” and the Secured Party as “secured party” and describing the Collateral in the filing offices set forth opposite such Grantor’s name on Schedule 3.4 hereof (as such schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to time), the security interest of the Secured Party in all Collateral that can be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any jurisdiction will constitute a valid and perfected Lien subject to any Permitted Exclusions with respect to Collateral. Each agreement purporting to give the Secured Party Control over any Collateral is effective to establish the Secured Party’s Control of the Collateral subject thereto;

(b) Except for authorizations and approvals that have been received, no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for (i) the grant by such Grantor of the security interest granted hereunder or (ii) the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by such Grantor; and

(c) The granting of the security interests in the Collateral to the Secured Party hereunder does not violate any term, provision, or clause in any material lease, license, contract, property right or agreement to which such Grantor is a party.

SECTION 4. COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS.

Each Grantor hereby covenants and agrees that:

4.1 Grantor Information & Status.

(a) Without limiting any prohibitions or restrictions on mergers or other transactions as set forth in the Settlement Agreement or the Reclamation Funding Agreement, it shall not change its name, corporate structure (e.g. by merger, consolidation, change in corporate form or otherwise), chief executive office, type of organization or jurisdiction of organization unless it shall have (a) notified the Secured Party in writing of any such change promptly (and in any event within 45 days after such change or such longer period as the Secured Party may reasonably agree), identifying such new proposed name, corporate structure, chief executive office, jurisdiction of organization and providing such other information in connection therewith as the Secured Party may reasonably request and (b) taken all actions necessary to maintain the continuous validity, perfection and the same or better priority of the Secured Party’s security interest in the Collateral granted or intended to be granted and agreed to hereby.

4.2 Ownership of Collateral and Absence of Other Liens.

(a) Except for the security interest created by this Agreement and the Permitted Exclusions, it shall not create or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral (other than statutory liens that arise in the ordinary course of its business), and it shall, at the Secured Party’s reasonable request, use its commercially reasonable efforts to defend the Collateral against all persons at any time claiming any material interest therein, other than Liens permitted hereunder; and

(b) Upon such Grantor or any officer of such Grantor obtaining knowledge thereof, it shall promptly notify the Secured Party in writing of any event that would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on (i) the value of the Collateral, (ii) the ability of any such Grantor or the Secured Party to dispose of any material portion of the Collateral, or (iii) the rights and remedies of the Secured Party in relation thereto, including, without limitation, the levy of any legal process against any material portion of the Collateral.

SECTION 5. ACCESS; RIGHT OF INSPECTION AND FURTHER ASSURANCES.

5.1 Further Assurances.

(a) Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at its reasonable expense, that it shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary, or that the Secured Party may reasonably request, in order to perfect and maintain the validity, effectiveness and priority of any security interest granted hereby or to enable the Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral.

(b) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to file a Record or Records, including, without limitation, financing or continuation statements, and amendments to any of the foregoing, in any jurisdictions and with any filing offices as the Secured Party may determine, in its reasonably discretion, are reasonably necessary or advisable to perfect or otherwise protect the security interest granted to the Secured Party herein. Such financing statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of Collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the

Secured Party may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Secured Party.

SECTION 6. SECURED PARTY APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT.

6.1 Power of Attorney. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Secured Party (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, the Secured Party or otherwise, from time to time in the Secured Party’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Secured Party may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, in each case, only at such time or times during which an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, including, without limitation, the following:

(a) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

(b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (a) above;

(c) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Secured Party may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Secured Party with respect to any of the Collateral; and

(d) to prepare and file any UCC financing statements against such Grantor as debtor.

6.2 No Duty on the Part of Secured Party. The powers conferred on the Secured Party under Section 6.1 are solely to protect the interests of Secured Party in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Secured Party to exercise any such powers.

SECTION 7. REMEDIES.

7.1 Generally.

(a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Secured Party may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for in the Settlement Agreement, the Reclamation Funding Agreement, and any document relating thereto, herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, subject to the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement, all the rights and remedies of the Secured Party on default under the UCC to collect, enforce or satisfy any Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may pursue any of the following separately, successively or simultaneously:

(i) deliver a “notice of termination” or “notice of exclusive control” to the depositary institution at which each of the Restricted Cash Accounts is maintained and

which is subject to a deposit account control agreement among one or more of the Grantors, the Secured Party and such depositary institutions;

(ii) require Grantors to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it shall at its expense and promptly upon request of the Secured Party as soon as reasonably practicable, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Secured Party and make it available to the Secured Party at a place to be designated by the Secured Party that is reasonably convenient to both parties;

(iii) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process;

(iv) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent the Secured Party deems reasonably appropriate; and

(v) without notice except as specified below or under the UCC, sell, assign, lease, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Secured Party’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, the occurrence of an “Event of Default” as such term is defined in the Settlement Agreement shall permit the Secured Party to exercise all rights, powers, and remedies vested in it.

(c) The Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent to the portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the UCC and the Secured Party shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the UCC, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Secured Party at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of the Grantors, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. If the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, the Grantor shall be liable for the deficiency and the fees of any attorneys employed by the Secured Party to

collect such deficiency. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Secured Party to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Party, that the Secured Party has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Nothing in this Section shall in any way limit the rights of the Secured Party hereunder.

(d) The Secured Party may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Secured Party may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(e) The Secured Party shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.

7.2 Application of Proceeds. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, all proceeds received by the Secured Party in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the Secured Party against, the Secured Obligations in the following order of priority:

FIRST, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Secured Party and its agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Secured Party in connection therewith, and all amounts for which the Secured Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder and all advances made by the Secured Party hereunder for the account of the Grantors, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Secured Party in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the Settlement Agreement, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof;

SECOND, to the payment of, to the extent such expenses are reimbursable in accordance with the terms of the relevant agreements, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including legal fees) incurred by the Secured Party in connection with the enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement, the Settlement Agreement or the Reclamation Funding Agreement or otherwise by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default thereunder, in each case, with interest at the rates specified in any applicable agreement, order, statute or rule in respect of overdue payments;

THIRD, to the payment or performance of all other Secured Obligations due and payable to the Secured Party; and

LAST, the balance, if any, after all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in cash, to the Grantors or as otherwise required by applicable law.

SECTION 8. STANDARD OF CARE; SECURED PARTY MAY PERFORM.

The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Secured Party shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Secured Party accords its own property. Neither the Secured Party nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Grantors or otherwise. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Secured Party may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable out of pocket expenses of the Secured Party incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Grantors.

SECTION 9. REINSTATEMENT.

This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding be commenced by or against any or all of the Grantors, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Notices. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all notices, consents, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted hereunder:

CONSENT ORDER

The following findings are made and this Consent Order is issued pursuant to the authority vested in the Secretary of the Department of Environmental Protection (the “Department”) pursuant to W. Va. Code § 22-1-6(d)(3) and delegated to the Director of the Division of Mining and Reclamation (the “Director”) pursuant to W. Va. Code § 22-1-6(b).

FINDINGS OF FACT

In support of this Consent Order, the Director makes the following Findings of Fact:


A.	Under the West Virginia Surface Coal Mining and Reclamation Act, W. Va. Code § 22-3-1, et seq. (the “Act”), no person may engage in surface mining operations unless such person has first obtained a permit from the Director. W. Va. Code § 22-3-8(a).


B.	In accordance with the Act, after the Director approves a surface mining permit, but before he or she issues such permit, the operator must furnish a penal bond, payable to the State of West Virginia, which bond secures the operator’s obligations to comply with the requirements of the Act and the operator’s surface mining permit(s). W. Va. Code § 22-3-11(a).


C.	The Act prescribes various forms of penal bonds with various requirements for their acceptance by the Director, including, without limitation:


1.	Surety bonds in accordance with the West Virginia Surface Mining Reclamation Rule (the “Rule”), W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-11.3.a (“Surety Bonds”);


2.	Various forms of cash bonds in accordance with W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-11.3.b.1.A. - 11.3.b.1.D. (“Cash Bonds”);


3.	Collateral bonds on real property in accordance with W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-11.3.b.1.E. (“Collateral Bonds”);


4.	Letters of credit in accordance with W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-11.3.b.1.G. (“Letters of Credit”); and

SUBJECT TO REVIEW AND APPROVAL
BY PERSONS WITH AUTHORITY


5.	Escrow bonds in accordance with W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-11.3.c. (“Escrow Bonds”).

The various forms of penal bonds described in W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-11.3., other than self-bonds as described in W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-11.3.d. (“Self-Bonds”), are hereinafter referred to as “Penal Bonds”.


D.	The Act authorizes the Director to accept a Self-Bond, if the applicant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Director, among other things, a history of financial solvency and continuous operation sufficient for authorization to self-insure. W. Va. Code § 22-3-11(d).

The Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. (“ANR”) subsidiaries listed in Exhibit 1 (collectively, the “ANR Subsidiaries” and, collectively with ANR, “Alpha”) attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein currently hold mining permits (collectively, the “Permits”) issued by the Director for coal mines and related facilities in West Virginia that are covered, in part, by Self-Bonds. To ensure that the ANR Subsidiaries qualified for the issuance of Self-Bonds, ANR guaranteed the payment and performance of the Self-Bonds issued by the ANR Subsidiaries pursuant to the Self-Bond Corporate Guarantee dated December 13, 2012 (the “Guarantee”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.

On August 3, 2015, ANR and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”), including all of the ANR Subsidiaries, commenced cases under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia (the “Bankruptcy Court”), which cases are being jointly administered under case number 15-33896 (KRH) (the “Chapter 11 Cases”).


G.	On the date of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the ANR Subsidiaries held Self-Bonds in the approximate amount of $244 million.


H.	Exhibit 1 hereto also identifies and sets forth the amount of Alpha’s current Self-Bonds (collectively, the “Alpha Self-Bonds”) by permit and further categorizes such permits as follows:


1.	By permits upon which coal is currently being mined and expected to be mined in the future (“Active Permits”);


2.	By permits upon which coal is not currently being mined due to market considerations but may be mined in the future (“Inactive Permits”);


3.	By permits upon which only reclamation activities are continuing (“Reclaim-Only Permits”); and


4.	By permits upon which permitted mining has not been started but may be started in the future (“Not Started Permits”).

SUBJECT TO REVIEW AND APPROVAL
BY PERSONS WITH AUTHORITY


I.	By a letter dated August 5, 2015, ANR advised the Director that it may no longer satisfy one or more of the criteria for self-bonding under the Act and the Rule.


J.	By a letter dated September 1, 2015, the Director advised Alpha that, within 90 days, Alpha must post an alternate form of bond in total amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Alpha Self-Bonds.

On December 7, 2015, Alpha and the Director entered into a consent order providing for Alpha’s satisfaction of its statutory reclamation bonding requirements in the State of West Virginia (the “State”) during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases (the “Initial Consent Order”). The Initial Consent Order contemplated that the Alpha Self-Bonds would be replaced with other acceptable alternative forms of bond upon emergence from chapter 11.


L.	During the continuing pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors and the Director entered into the Permitting and Reclamation Plan Settlement Agreement for the State of West Virginia dated July ___, 2016 (the “Settlement Agreement”) that, among other things, resolved issues relating to the replacement of the Alpha Self-Bonds.


M.	Attached as Exhibit 3 to the Settlement Agreement is a form of security agreement (the “Security Agreement”) that, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors are required to deliver to the Department on the Effective Date (as defined in the Plan) (hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Date”).


N.	By an order dated July ___, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Settlement Agreement and confirmed the Debtors’ joint plan of reorganization (the “Plan”), and, on the Effective Date, the Debtors will emerge from chapter 11. ANR and Alpha, as they shall exist following the Effective Date, are referred to herein as “Reorganized ANR” and “Reorganized Alpha,” respectively.


O.	Upon emergence, Reorganized Alpha shall retain certain coal mining assets, including certain assets in the State, that were not sold pursuant to the Sale Transaction (as defined in the Settlement Agreement) and will hold the permits associated with those assets.


P.	In accordance with the Settlement Agreement, this Consent Order embodies certain terms of the Settlement Agreement.


Q.	This Consent Order supersedes and replaces the Initial Consent Order in its entirety.

iii. 100% of the initial amount of the Self-Bonded obligations on such Reclaim-Only Permits by the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, by which time all remaining permits on the Reclaim-Only Permits shall be fully bonded with Penal Bonds in the amount determined in accordance with then-existing applicable State law and rules.

c. The calculation of the required reduction in Self-Bonds shall not take into account any existing Penal Bonds or the amount of the Pool Bond (as defined below) until the aggregate amount of Self-Bonds is less than $39,000,000, and the Pool Bond has been converted to acceptable site-specific Penal Bonds.

d. In the event that Reorganized Alpha decides to commence or recommence mining operations on any Reclaim-Only Permit, it may do so only upon posting and approval of Surety Bonds or other acceptable forms of Penal Bonds and compliance with all other applicable laws, rules and orders with respect to such Reclaim-Only Permit.

5. Posting of the Pool Bond.

a. On or before the Effective Date, Reorganized Alpha shall post an additional $24,000,000 in financial assurance in the form of a Cash Bond or Letter of Credit with the West Virginia State Treasurer’s Office for any and all sites located in the State that will be covered by a Self-Bond on and after the Effective Date.

BY PERSONS WITH AUTHORITY

b. The Cash Bond or Letter of Credit issued pursuant to Paragraph 5(a) hereof shall be in addition to the existing $15,000,000 Letter of Credit posted pursuant to the Initial Consent Order, which Letter of Credit shall remain in full force and effect or be substituted by a replacement Letter of Credit or Cash Bond on terms in accordance with applicable West Virginia law and acceptable to the Director, it being agreed that the terms of the existing Letter of Credit are acceptable. The existing Letter of Credit or the replacement thereof shall serve as additional financial assurance for any and all sites located in the State that will be covered by a Self-Bond on and after the Effective Date.

c. The Cash Bond or Letter of Credit issued pursuant to Paragraph 5(a) hereof and the existing Letter of Credit and any replacement Letter of Credit or Cash Bond described in Paragraph 5(b) hereof are referred to herein as the “Pool Bond.”

d. Until Reorganized Alpha has replaced all Self-Bonds with Penal Bonds that satisfy applicable law, the Pool Bond will remain in place and may be drawn down and applied by the Director in whole or in part upon the revocation of any of the issued and outstanding Self-Bonded permits and declaration of forfeiture and demand for payment of the associated Self-Bond(s).

e. The Pool Bond shall be returned by the Director to Reorganized Alpha when all Self-Bonded mining sites have been covered by acceptable Penal Bonds in accordance with West Virginia law or have been fully reclaimed as defined in W. Va. Code R. § 38-2-2.37, whichever comes first.

6. Additional Cash Bond. In the event that the Director terminates Reorganized Alpha’s right to use funds in the Restricted Cash Accounts pursuant to Section 9(c)(ii) of the Settlement Agreement, the funds then contained in the Restricted Cash Accounts shall be deemed to constitute a Cash Bond with respect to Reorganized Alpha’s performance of their obligations to reclaim and manage and treat water at their Reclaim-Only Sites.

OTHER PROVISIONS

7. Except as specifically set forth herein, nothing in this Consent Order shall in any way limit or impair the rights of the Director to enforce all applicable environmental and reclamation laws and regulations, and neither Reorganized Alpha nor the Director waives or releases any legal or factual argument, claim, doctrine or defense applicable to any dispute related thereto, including without limitation any argument, claim, doctrine or defense under applicable bankruptcy laws.

8. Except as specifically provided above, compliance with the terms and conditions of this Consent Order shall not in any way be construed as relieving Reorganized Alpha of the obligation to comply with any applicable law, permit, order or any other requirement otherwise applicable. Violations of the terms and conditions of this Consent Order may subject Reorganized Alpha to additional penalties and injunctive relief in accordance with applicable law.

SUBJECT TO REVIEW AND APPROVAL
BY PERSONS WITH AUTHORITY

9. This Consent Order shall terminate only upon the termination of the Settlement Agreement pursuant to its terms. The termination of the Settlement Agreement or this Consent Order shall have no effect on the obligations of Reorganized Alpha under this Consent Order, or Reorganized Alpha’s obligations to comply with all applicable state and federal laws.

10. Reorganized Alpha waives its right to appeal this Consent Order under W. Va. Code § 22-3-17(e). Reorganized Alpha agrees to take all actions required by the terms and conditions of this Consent Order. However, Reorganized Alpha does not admit to any factual or legal determinations made by the Director and reserves all rights and defenses available regarding liability or responsibility in any proceeding other than proceedings, administrative or civil, to enforce this Consent Order.

11. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Director reserves the right to take further action if compliance with the terms and conditions of this Consent Order does not adequately address the violations, if any, noted herein or for any other matter and further reserves all rights and defenses that he may have pursuant to any legal authority, as well as the right to raise, as a basis for supporting such legal authority or defenses, facts other than those contained in the Findings of Fact herein.

12. If any event occurs that delays Reorganized Alpha’s ability to comply with the requirements of this Consent Order, Reorganized Alpha shall have the burden of proving that such delay was caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control and that could not have been overcome by due diligence (i.e., force majeure). Force majeure shall not include delays caused or contributed to by the lack of sufficient funding unless such lack of funding is due (a) limitations imposed on Reorganized Alpha by the Bankruptcy Code or order of the Bankruptcy Court or (b) to the actions of an entity not within the control of Reorganized Alpha. Within three working days after Reorganized Alpha becomes aware of such a delay, it shall notify the Director and, within ten working days of such initial notification, Reorganized Alpha shall submit (a) a detailed written explanation of the anticipated length and cause of the delay, (b) the means taken and/or to be taken to prevent or minimize the delay and (c) a timetable by which Reorganized Alpha intends to implement such measures. If the Director agrees that the delay has been or will be caused by circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Reorganized Alpha (i.e., force majeure), the time for performance hereunder shall be extended for a period of time equal to the delay resulting from such circumstances. A force majeure extension granted by the Director shall be considered a binding extension of the relevant requirements under this Consent Order. The Director’s determination shall be final and not subject to appeal.

13. The provisions of this Consent Order are severable. In the event that a court or board of competent jurisdiction declares any provision hereof to be invalid or unenforceable, all other provisions of this Consent Order shall remain in full force and effect; provided that, if such declaration results from a challenge or proceeding brought by a third party then either the Director or Reorganized Alpha may choose to terminate this Consent Order in its entirety.

14. This Consent Order is binding on Reorganized Alpha as of the Effective Date, regardless of either or both of the dates written below.
