MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

SECTION 301. Terms Defined. For all purposes of this Second Supplemental Indenture, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture.

SECTION 302. Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution and delivery of this Second Supplemental Indenture by New EQT, the Company and the Trustee, the Indenture shall be supplemented in accordance herewith, and this Second Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture for all purposes, and every Holder of Securities heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered under the Indenture shall be bound thereby. In accordance with Section 6.04(a) of the Indenture, upon the execution and delivery of this Second Supplemental Indenture by New EQT, the Company and the Trustee, New EQT shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company with the same effect as if it had been named therein as the party of the first part and the Company shall be released and relieved as heretofore agreed.

SECTION 303. Indenture and Supplemental Indenture Construed Together. This Second Supplemental Indenture is an indenture supplemental to and in implementation of the Indenture, and the Indenture and this Second Supplemental Indenture shall henceforth be read and construed together.

SECTION 305. Endorsement and Change of Form of Notes. Any Notes authenticated and delivered after the date of this Second Supplemental Indenture in exchange or substitution for Notes then outstanding and all Notes presented or delivered to the Trustee on and after that date for such purpose shall (unless textually revised as hereinafter provided) be stamped or typewritten by the Trustee with a notation as follows:

“New EQT, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (“New EQT”), has assumed the obligations of Equitable Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) as successor to the Company in connection with the transfer of the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety. New EQT has expressly assumed the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on all the Notes and the due and punctual performance and observance of all the covenants and obligations in the Indenture to be performed or observed by the Company, and the Company will be relieved from all covenants and obligations under the Notes, the Securities and the Indenture in accordance with the Second Supplemental Indenture referred to below. The Indenture dated as of March 18, 2008 referred to in this Note has been amended by a Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 30, 2008 to provide for such assumptions of obligations by New EQT and the release of the Company from such obligations. Reference is hereby made to said Second Supplemental Indenture, copies of which are on file with The Bank of New York, as Trustee, for a description of the amendments therein made.”

Any Notes hereafter authenticated and delivered in exchange or substitution for Notes then outstanding shall, if New EQT so elects, be textually revised in a form approved by the Trustee to make reference to the Second Supplemental Indenture and to reflect the supplement of the Indenture hereby instead of being stamped or typewritten as hereinabove provided.

SECTION 306. Trustee. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Second Supplemental Indenture. The recitals and statements herein are deemed to be those of the Company and new EQT and not of the Trustee.
