RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

Transactions with the Company's Former Parent (2017)

Transition Services Agreements

The Company entered into a transition services agreement and certain other agreements in connection with the separation and distribution agreement with its former parent to cover certain continued corporate services provided by the Company and its former parent to each other following the completion of the separation and distribution. In connection with the separation and distribution, the Company began to set up its own corporate functions, and pursuant to the transition services agreement, its former parent provided various corporate support services, including certain accounting, human resources, information technology, office and building, risk, security, tax and treasury, building security and tax services, as well as certain regulatory compliance services required during the period in which the Company remained a majority-owned subsidiary of its former parent. The charges associated with these services were not material during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, and are consistent with expenses that the Company's former parent has historically allocated or incurred with respect to such services. The transition services agreement with the Company's former parent expired in February 2019.

Former Parent Receivables and Payables

At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had a payable to its former parent of $109 and $235, respectively, recorded in Accounts Payable on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also had a receivable from its former parent of $6,414 and $11,788, of which $6,414 and $5,500 was recorded in Other Receivables on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Additionally, $6,288 was included in Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2018. These items relate to the reimbursement of the one-time transaction costs as well as other reimbursements per the terms of the separation and distribution agreement.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company paid its former parent $18,234 related to the final settlement of shared, spin-related fees. Per the separation and distribution agreement, these costs were split equally by the two companies. These costs consisted of consulting and professional fees associated with preparing for and executing the separation and distribution, as well as various other items.

CONSOL Coal Resources LP

CONSOL Energy, certain of its subsidiaries and the Partnership are party to an Omnibus Agreement, dated September 30, 2016, as amended on November 28, 2017 (the “Omnibus Agreement”). Under the Omnibus Agreement, CONSOL Energy provides the Partnership with certain services in exchange for payments by the Partnership for those services.

On November 28, 2017, the Company entered into an Affiliated Company Credit Agreement with the Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries (the Partnership Credit Parties) under which the Company provides as lender a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $275 million to the Partnership Credit Parties. In connection with the completion of the separation, the Partnership drew an initial $201 million, the net proceeds of which were used to repay outstanding amounts under CCR's $400 million senior secured revolving credit facility with certain lenders and PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), as administrative agent (the “Original CCR Credit Facility”), and to provide working capital for the Partnership following the separation and for other general corporate purposes. The Original CCR Credit Facility was then terminated.

On March 28, 2019, the Affiliated Company Credit Agreement was amended to extend the maturity date from February 27, 2023 to December 28, 2024. Interest accrues at a rate ranging from 3.75% to 4.75%, subject to the Partnership's net leverage ratio. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, $1,796 and $2,134 of interest expense is included in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively. The collateral obligations under the Affiliated Company Credit Agreement generally mirror the Original CCR Credit Facility, as does the list of entities that will act as guarantors thereunder. The Affiliated Company Credit Agreement is subject to financial covenants relating to a maximum first lien gross leverage ratio and a maximum total net leverage ratio, which will be calculated on a consolidated basis for the Partnership and its restricted subsidiaries at the end of each fiscal quarter. The Partnership was in compliance with each of these financial covenants at March 31, 2019. The Affiliated Company Credit Agreement also contains a number of customary affirmative covenants and negative covenants, including limitations on the ability of the Partnership to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, and make investments, acquisitions, dispositions, restricted payments, and prepayments of junior indebtedness (subject to certain limited exceptions).

CCR is a party to a number of other agreements with CONSOL Energy, or its subsidiaries, that are described in detail in the section titled “Agreements with Affiliates” in Item 13 of CCR’s Form 10-K filed on February 8, 2019.
