(ii) In the event the Excess Coal Inventory Value is greater than Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000), after the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has received Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000) of gross proceeds from the shipment of coal after the Closing Date by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, Purchaser shall thereafter pay Seller one-half (1/2) of the gross proceeds from the shipment of such additional coal after the Closing Date, less all costs, fees, expenses, royalties and taxes incurred by the Company or applicable Subsidiary after the Closing Date (and not included as part of the Net Working Capital calculation) with respect to such coal, within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such proceeds, by wire transfer in immediately available funds, but only up to an amount of gross proceeds that combined with the Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000) does not to exceed the Excess Coal Inventory Value.

(e) The Closing Consideration, as adjusted as provided in Section 2.3 below, plus any Contingent Payments, Excess Coal Inventory Value payments and any Excess Non-Coal Related Net Working Capital payments shall be referred to herein as the “Purchase Price.”

(a) The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m., Lexington time, on December 31, 2014 provided that on such date the conditions set forth in Article VI shall have been satisfied or waived (other than delivery of items to be delivered at the Closing and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), it being understood that the occurrence of the Closing shall remain subject to the delivery of such items and the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing) at the offices of Frost Brown Todd LLC, in Lexington, Kentucky, unless another time, date or place is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” The Closing shall be deemed to have occurred as of 11:59 p.m. on the Closing Date for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Purchaser:

(i) an assignment of the Interests from Seller to Purchaser in the form attached as Exhibit 2.2(b)(i);

(ii) the approvals, consents and waivers that are set forth on Exhibit 2.2(b)(ii);

(iii) the resignations of the directors, officers and managers of the Company and its Subsidiaries set forth on Exhibit 2.2(b)(iii);

(iv) executed copies of each of the other Transaction Documents to which Seller or the Company is a party; and

(i) the Closing Consideration, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by Seller;

(ii) evidence of the substitute Letters of Credit to replace in all respects the Letters of Credit set forth on Exhibit 2.2(c)(ii);

(iii) executed copies of each of the other Transaction Documents to which Purchaser is a party; and

(a) No later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a certificate of an officer of Seller, or one of its Subsidiaries, setting forth its good faith estimate of (i) the amount of Cash of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Cash Amount”), and (ii) the Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”), taking into account the Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory.

(b) Purchaser and Seller shall jointly engage mutually agreeable engineering firms (the “Inventory Firms”) to calculate the quantity (based on volume and density) of raw and clean tons of coal located at each inventory location on or after the seventh (7^th) Business Day, weather permitting, prior to, but not after the Closing Date, and Purchaser and Seller shall use the methodology set forth in Exhibit 2.3(b) to value the coal inventory (the amount so calculated shall be referred to as the “Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory”). Both Purchaser and Seller shall be entitled to be present at each inventory location during the time the Inventory Firms are conducting their volume and density measurements. The calculation of the quantity of coal by the Inventory Firms shall be final and binding on the parties unless the parties mutually agree on an adjustment thereto due to an error in the calculation that appears on the face of such

calculation. Purchaser and Seller shall work in good faith to calculate the Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory based on the quantities calculated by the Inventory Firms (as may be adjusted pursuant to the previous sentence) and the methodology set forth in Exhibit 2.3(b). The Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory calculated by Seller shall be final and binding on the parties unless Purchaser notifies Seller within three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date that it disputes Seller’s calculation. In the event Purchaser notifies Seller that it so disputes Seller’s calculation, the parties shall work in good faith to resolve such dispute not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date. If Purchaser disputes Seller’s calculation of the Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory and the parties are unable to resolve such dispute within one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date, the Closing will occur, and the Net Working Capital will be calculated, based upon the Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory as calculated by Seller and Purchaser shall be entitled to use its calculation of the Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory in connection with its preparation of the Preliminary Statement, which is subject to dispute by Seller as set forth below. Each of Purchaser and Seller agrees to execute, if requested by the Inventory Firms, a reasonable engagement letter. Each of Purchaser and Seller shall pay one-half (1/2) of the fees and expenses of the Inventory Firms. The Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory shall be adjusted to the Closing Date to reflect changes in such Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory from the date of the Inventory Firms’ calculation through the Closing based on the operating records of the Company.

(c) No more than forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller the following (collectively, the “Preliminary Statement”):

(i) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (before giving effect to the Closing) (the “Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet”), taking into account the Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory and prepared by Purchaser in accordance with GAAP, applied on a basis consistent with the Company’s December 31, 2013 audited financial statements (including year-end accounting adjustments);

(ii) a calculation by Purchaser of the amount of Cash of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date (before giving effect to the Closing), based on the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet (the “Preliminary Cash Amount”); and

(iii) a calculation by Purchaser of the Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date (before giving effect to the Closing), based on the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet taking into account the Pre-Closing Date Coal Inventory (the “Preliminary Net Working Capital”).

(d) Seller shall have ten (10) Business Days following receipt of the Preliminary Statement to review the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet and the calculations of the Preliminary Cash Amount and the Preliminary Net Working Capital, and to notify Purchaser in writing if Seller disputes the amount of the Preliminary Cash Amount or the Preliminary Net Working Capital set forth on the Preliminary Statement (the “Dispute Notice”), specifying the reasons therefor in reasonable detail.

(e) In connection with Seller’s review of the Preliminary Statement, Seller and its Representatives shall have reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to all relevant work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents prepared by Purchaser or its Representatives (subject to customary indemnification agreements with respect to work papers of Purchaser’s independent accountants that may be requested by such independent accountants) in connection with Purchaser’s preparation of the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet and/or its calculation of the Preliminary Cash Amount or the Preliminary Net Working Capital and to finance personnel of Purchaser and any other information that Seller or its Representatives reasonably request, and Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller and its Representatives in connection therewith.

(f) In the event that Seller shall deliver a Dispute Notice to Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate in good faith to resolve such dispute as promptly as practicable and, upon such resolution, if any, any adjustments to the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, the Preliminary Cash Amount and the Preliminary Net Working Capital shall be made in accordance with the written agreement of Purchaser and Seller. In connection with Purchaser’s review of the Dispute Notice, Purchaser and its Representatives shall have reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to all relevant work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents prepared by Seller or its Representatives (subject to customary indemnification agreements with respect to work papers of Seller’s independent accountants that may be requested by such independent accountants) in connection with Seller’s preparation of the Dispute Notice and to finance personnel of Seller and any other information that Purchaser or its Representatives reasonably request, and Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser and its Representatives in connection therewith. If Purchaser and Seller are unable to resolve any such dispute within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period as Purchaser and Seller shall mutually agree in writing) of Seller’s delivery of such Dispute Notice, such dispute shall be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, and such determination shall be final and binding on the parties. With respect to any disputed amount, the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination shall not be higher than the highest amount proposed by Seller or Purchaser, nor lower than the lowest amount proposed by Seller or Purchaser. Any expenses relating to the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm in respect of its services pursuant to this Section 2.3(f) shall be paid by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, based on the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Purchaser or Seller, respectively, bears to the amount actually contested by Purchaser and Seller. The Independent Accounting Firm shall be instructed to use reasonable best efforts to perform its services within thirty (30) days of submission of the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, the Preliminary Cash Amount and the Preliminary Net Working Capital to it and, in any case, as promptly as practicable after such submission. The Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, the Preliminary Cash Amount and the Preliminary Net Working Capital, (i) if no Dispute Notice has been timely

delivered by Seller, as originally submitted by Purchaser, or (ii) if a Dispute Notice has been timely delivered by Seller, as adjusted pursuant to the resolution of such dispute in accordance with this Section 2.3(f), shall be, respectively, the “Final Closing Balance Sheet,” the “Final Cash Amount” and the “Final Net Working Capital.”

(g) The Closing Consideration shall be adjusted as follows (the aggregate of such increases or decreases, as the case may be, pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) below is referred to as the “Final Closing Adjustment”):

(i) (A) increased, if the Final Cash Amount exceeds the Estimated Cash Amount, by the amount of such excess, or (B) decreased, if the Estimated Cash Amount exceeds the Final Cash Amount, by the amount of such excess; and

(ii) (A) increased, if the Final Net Working Capital exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital, by the amount of such excess, or (B) decreased, if the Estimated Net Working Capital exceeds the Final Net Working Capital, by the amount of such excess.

(h) Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, shall, within five (5) Business Days after the determination of the Final Cash Amount and the Final Net Working Capital pursuant to this Section 2.3, make payment to the other by wire transfer in immediately available funds of the amount payable by Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, in an amount equal to the Final Closing Adjustment, together with interest thereon from the Closing Date to the date of payment at a floating rate equal to the U.S. dollar prime rate per annum, as quoted by The Wall Street Journal, from time to time during such period (less any non-resident withholding Tax payable in respect of such interest). Such interest shall be calculated based on a year of 365 days and the number of days elapsed since the Closing Date.

(a) Reference Prices. Within thirty (30) days of the end of each of calendar year 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019, Seller shall notify Purchaser of the Reference Price for the applicable calendar year, which Reference Price shall be calculated as set forth in the definition of Reference Price. Included with the notice, Seller shall provide Purchaser with an explanation of its calculation of the applicable Reference Price.

(b) Calendar Year 2015 Contingent Payment. Subject to the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Section 2.4(g), within five (5) Business Days after Seller notifies Purchaser of the Reference Price pursuant to Section 2.4(a), Seller shall provide a calculation of the contingent payment (the “2015 Contingent Payment Amount”) for calendar year 2015 based upon the following formula: the sum of (1) the product of (i) the greater of (X) $0 and (Y) the Reference Price for calendar year 2015 minus $150, (ii) 1,500,000 and (iii) $0.25; plus (2) the product of (i) the greater of (X) $0 and (Y) the Reference Price for calendar year

2015 minus $160, (ii) 1,500,000 and (iii) $0.08. Purchaser shall be obligated to pay Seller the 2015 Contingent Payment Amount, but only up to an amount equal to $10,000,000 (the amount that Purchaser is obligated to pay is referred to as the “2015 Contingent Payment”).

(c) Calendar Year 2016 Contingent Payment. Subject to the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Section 2.4(g), within five (5) Business Days after Seller notifies Purchaser of the Reference Price pursuant to Section 2.4(a), Seller shall provide a calculation of the contingent payment (the “2016 Contingent Payment Amount”) for calendar year 2016 based upon the following formula: the sum of (1) the product of (i) the greater of (X) $0 and (Y) the Reference Price for calendar year 2016 minus $150, (ii) 1,600,000 and (iii) $0.25; plus (2) the product of (i) the greater of (X) $0 and (Y) the Reference Price for calendar year 2016 minus $160, (ii) 1,600,000 and (iii) $0.08.

notifies Purchaser of the Reference Price pursuant to Section 2.4(a), Seller shall provide a calculation of the contingent payment (the “2019 Contingent Payment Amount” and together with the 2015 Contingent Payment Amount, the 2016 Contingent Payment Amount, the 2017 Contingent Payment Amount and the 2018 Contingent Payment Amount, the “Contingent Payment Amounts”) for calendar year 2019 based upon the following formula: the sum of (1) the product of (i) the greater of (X) $0 and (Y) the Reference Price for calendar year 2019 minus $180, (ii) 1,850,000 and (iii) $0.25 and (2) the product of (i) the greater of (X) $0 and (Y) the Reference Price for calendar year 2019 minus $190, (ii) 1,850,000 and (iii) $0.08.

(g) Purchaser shall have five (5) Business Days following receipt of the amount of the 2015 Contingent Payment Amount, 2016 Contingent Payment Amount, 2017 Contingent Payment Amount, 2018 Contingent Payment Amount, or 2019 Contingent Payment Amount, as applicable, to notify Seller in writing if Purchaser disputes the amount of any applicable Contingent Payment or Contingent Payment Amount, including any disputes with respect to the calculation of the applicable Reference Price (the “Contingent Payment Dispute Notice”), specifying the reasons therefor in reasonable detail. In the event that Purchaser shall deliver a Contingent Payment Dispute Notice, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate in good faith to resolve such dispute as promptly as practicable and, upon such resolution, if any, any adjustment to the applicable Contingent Payment Amount or Contingent Payment shall be made in accordance with the written agreement of Purchaser and Seller. If Purchaser and Seller are unable to resolve any such dispute within five (5) Business Days (or such longer period as Purchaser and Seller shall mutually agree in writing) of Purchaser’s delivery of such Contingent Payment Dispute Notice, such dispute shall be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, and such determination shall be final and binding on the parties. Any expenses relating to the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm in respect of its services pursuant to this Section 2.4(g) shall be paid by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, based on the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Purchaser or Seller, respectively, bears to the amounts actually contested by Purchaser and Seller.

(h) Purchaser shall, within two (2) Business Days after the determination of the applicable Contingent Payment pursuant to this Section 2.4, make payment to Seller by wire transfer in immediately available funds of the amount payable by Purchaser in an amount equal to the applicable Contingent Payment.

(i) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate amount of the Contingent Payments that Purchaser shall be obligated to make exceed $50,000,000. An example of the calculation of a Contingent Payment Amount and a Contingent Payment is set forth on Exhibit 2.4(i). For the avoidance of doubt, it is the parties’ intent that (i) to the extent the 2015 Contingent Payment is less than $10,000,000, such shortfall can be carried over to calendar years 2016 and 2017 (but not 2018), (ii) to the extent the 2016 Contingent Payment, not taking into account any shortfall from calendar year 2015, is less than $10,000,000, such shortfall can be carried over to calendar years 2017 and 2018, (iii) to the extent the 2017 Contingent Payment, not taking into account any shortfalls from calendar years 2016 and 2017, is less than $10,000,000, such shortfall can be carried over to calendar year 2018 and (iv) no shortfalls from any prior calendar years may be carried over to calendar year 2019.

the Closing promptly after receipt thereof related to such Lease and any actions, claims or demands thereunder (and the Company shall be entitled to retain a copy of such books and records).

For purposes of Section 2.5(c) and Section 5.11, in the case of any taxable period that begins before the Closing Date and includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries including, Taxes that are either based upon or measured by reference to income, receipts, severance, profits, capital or net worth, sales and use or similar taxes, shall be apportioned to the portion of the taxable period ending on the Closing Date based on an interim closing of the books as of the end of the day on the Closing Date. In the case of Taxes that must under applicable law be calculated on an annual or periodic basis with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries other than those described in the preceding sentence, such Taxes shall be apportioned on a pro rata basis based upon a comparison of the number of days in such taxable period up to and including the Closing Date to the total number of days in such taxable period.

No Title IV Plan or any trust established thereunder has incurred any “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined in section 302 of ERISA and section 412 of the Code), whether or not waived. No Title IV Plan is a “multiemployer pension plan,” as defined in section 3(37) of ERISA, nor is any Title IV Plan a plan described in section 4063(a) of ERISA.

(d) Except as specifically provided in the documents described in this Section 3.16 and delivered to Purchaser, or as otherwise described in Section 3.16(d) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, there are no amendments, modifications, extensions, changes in benefits or benefit structures, or other alterations that are currently in effect or that Seller or the Company have undertaken to become effective in the future to any of the Plans.

(f) Except as set forth in Section 3.16(f) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, no Plan provides medical, surgical, hospitalization, death or similar benefits (whether or not insured) for employees or former employees of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof for periods extending beyond their retirement, disability or other termination of service, other than coverage mandated by applicable Law.

(g) Seller and the Company have fully complied with the notice and continuation requirements of Parts 6 and 7 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and section 4980B of the Code, and the regulations thereunder, whether proposed or final (“COBRA”).

(h) To the Knowledge of Seller, neither Seller, the Company, any ERISA Affiliate nor any other fiduciary (as that term is defined in section 3(21) of ERISA) with respect to any of the Plans has any material Liability for any breach of any fiduciary duties under ERISA.

(i) Seller, the Company and any ERISA Affiliate have not, with respect to any of the Plans, nor has any administrator of any of the Plans, the related trusts or any trustee thereof, engaged in any prohibited transaction which could reasonably be expected to subject the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any of the Plans, any administrator, any trustee or any party dealing with any of the Plans or any such trusts, to a tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed by ERISA, the Code, or to any other Liability under ERISA or the Code.

(j) Each Plan that is intended to be tax qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and has received or is covered by a favorable determination or opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service, and any trusts intended to be exempt from federal income taxation under the Code are so exempt and, to the Knowledge of Seller, no facts or circumstances have occurred that would reasonably be expected to result in the loss of such qualification or exemption, or the imposition of any Liability, penalty or Tax under ERISA or the Code.

(k) Except as set forth in Section 3.16(k) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, none of the Plans which are employee pension benefit plans nor any of the related trusts have been terminated and no event or condition has occurred which presents a material risk of termination. No Liability to the PBGC has been incurred with respect to any of the Title IV Plans; there have been no reportable events (as described in section 4043(c) of ERISA); and no event or condition has occurred which presents a material risk of termination of any of the Title IV Plans by the PBGC.

(l) No Plan is, as of the date of the most recent financial statements prepared for each such Plan, considered an “at risk” plan within the meaning of Section 430 of the Code or Section 303 of ERISA. The actuarial present value of all accrued deferred compensation entitlements of employees and former employees of the Company, its Subsidiaries and any ERISA Affiliates (and their respective beneficiaries) other than entitlements accrued pursuant to funded retirement plans subject to the provisions of section 412 of the Code are fully reflected on the Financial Statements.

(m) None of the employee pension benefit plans is, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or ERISA Affiliates has within the ten-year period prior to the date of this Agreement contributed to, a “multiemployer plan,” as that term is defined in section 3(37) of ERISA (as particularly amended by The Multiemployer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1980).

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence to the contrary, the Purchaser shall make the final determination as to the number of employees required for ongoing staffing requirements. Seller shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to terminate the employment of such number of employees at least fourteen (14) days prior to the Closing, but in no event, unless Seller agrees otherwise, less than sixty (60) days following the notices provided under (a). All employees employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries on the Closing Date are hereinafter referred to as the “Company Employees”. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to have paid to the Company Employees any and all amounts attributable to accrued vacation, personal days, sick days, paid-time off, bonuses and for any other time or payments for which such Company Employees may be entitled, such that upon the Closing Date the Company Employees will not be entitled to any further compensation or paid time off of any nature whatsoever from the Company or its Subsidiaries attributable to the Plans, Contracts, policies, practices and programs in existence prior to the Closing. During the two-year period following the Closing, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to, provide to each Company Employee who is employed by Purchaser or any Subsidiary of Purchaser, for so long as such Company Employee remains so employed during such two-year period, compensation and employee benefits that, with respect to each such Company Employee, are no less favorable in the aggregate than the compensation and benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Purchaser and its Subsidiaries.

(c) Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, the Company and its Subsidiaries) to give each Company Employee credit for such Company Employee’s service with the Company and its Subsidiaries for purposes of eligibility and vesting (including for purposes of vacation) under any benefit plans maintained by Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries which are generally made available by Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries following the Closing to employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries and in which a Company Employee participates; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service.

(d) Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, the Company and its Subsidiaries) to, (i) waive any preexisting condition limitations otherwise applicable to Company Employees and their eligible dependents under any plan of Purchaser or any Subsidiary of Purchaser that provides health benefits in which Company Employees may be eligible to participate following the Closing, other than any limitations that were in effect with respect to such employees as of the Closing under the analogous Plan, (ii) credit any deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket maximums incurred by the Company Employees and their eligible dependents under the health plans in which they participated immediately prior to the Closing during the portion of the calendar year prior to the Closing in satisfying any deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket maximums under the health plans of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries in which they are eligible to participate after the Closing in the same calendar year in which such deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket maximums were incurred and (iii) to the extent permitted under a benefit plan maintained by Purchaser or its Subsidiaries, waive any waiting period limitation that would otherwise be applicable to a Company Employee and his or her eligible dependents on or after the Closing, in each case to the extent such Company Employee or eligible dependent had satisfied any similar limitation under an analogous Plan prior to the Closing.

(e) The Company has entered into Retention and Contingent Separation Agreements with the individuals set forth in Section 5.2(e) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (collectively, the “Retention and Contingent Separation Agreements”). Seller hereby agrees that (i) prior to Closing, Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to terminate the Retention and Contingent Separation Agreements so that no obligations shall exist under such Retention and Contingent Separation Agreements on or after the Closing and (ii) Seller shall be responsible for, and prior to the Closing shall have made, each payment and offered any continuation of benefits required under any Retention and Contingent Separation Agreement.

(f) Seller acknowledges and agrees that Seller has disclosed accurate actuarial estimates of Black Lung Liabilities in Section 5.2(f) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, and that such estimates are subject to change. Purchaser agrees that it shall assume all Black Lung Liabilities and all Black Lung Claims arising thereunder, regardless of whether such Liabilities or claims, or the events or circumstances giving rise to such Liabilities or claims, whether filed or unfiled, pending or not pending, arise or are pending prior to, on or after the Closing by or on behalf of any current or former employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries who performs or at any time performed services for the Business, any dependents or heirs of any such employees or any other person or entity who asserts a claim derived from such persons. From and following the Closing, Purchaser agrees that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall retain or incur any Liability with respect to Black Lung Claims or Black Lung Liabilities made or incurred by any current or former employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries who performs or at any time performed services for the Business, any dependents or heirs of any such employees or any other person or entity who asserts a claim derived from such persons, regardless of when the events or circumstances giving rise to such Liabilities or claims arose. Seller agrees that the Company

shall retain the Black Lung Benefits Trust and all assets thereunder. If Purchaser is not already registered with the Department of Labor as a guarantor with respect to Black Lung Liabilities and if Purchaser intends to be self-insured regarding such Liabilities, Purchaser shall so register with the Department of Labor.

(g) Seller acknowledges and agrees that Seller has disclosed accurate actuarial estimates of the post-employment Liabilities, other than any such estimates related to long-term disability Liabilities, in Section 5.2(g) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, and that such estimates are subject to change. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall, or shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to, take all actions necessary to terminate and cease all post-employment benefits payable, or to become payable, to employees or former employees, and their dependents, of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including providing all employees, former employees and their dependents with written notice of such termination and cessation, such termination and cessation to become effective prior to the Closing; provided, however, that the Company will pay all such benefit claims through the run out period. To the extent such post-employment benefits cannot be terminated and ceased prior to the Closing as to all employees, former employees and their dependents for whatever reason, Seller shall retain the obligations, Liabilities and Costs associated with such post-employment benefits and shall indemnify Purchaser, the Company and its Subsidiaries for any and all costs associated with such benefits.

(h) Seller shall be solely responsible for, and hereby assumes all Liabilities and Costs whatsoever with respect to, and shall indemnify and defend Purchaser, the Company and its Subsidiaries against, and hold Purchaser, the Company and its Subsidiaries harmless from any and all Losses with respect to Seller’s, the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ termination of the employment of any and all employees pursuant to Section 5.2(b) of this Agreement, including but not limited to any Liabilities and Costs arising under federal, state or local statute (including, without limitation, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1990, the Equal Pay Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, Executive Order 11246 and all other statutes regulating the terms and conditions of employment), regulation or ordinance, under the common law or in equity (including any claims for wrongful discharge or otherwise), or under any policy, agreement, understanding or promise, written or oral, formal or informal, between the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and such employee, except with respect to any workers’ compensation or unemployment claims, which claims shall be assumed by Purchaser as provided hereunder.

(i) At the option of Seller, which decision shall be communicated to Purchaser within five days of this Agreement, Seller may, prior to the Closing, transfer the TECO Coal Medical Plan to, and cause it to be sponsored and maintained by, any Affiliate of Seller other than the Company or its Subsidiaries. Other than as set forth in Section 2.5(k), in the event Seller transfers the TECO Coal Medical Plan as contemplated by this Section 5.2(i), after the Closing, the Company shall fund the claims payment account as directed by the third party

administrator for claims incurred under the TECO Coal Medical Plan prior to the Closing which are not covered under any stop-loss coverage in effect for the TECO Coal Medical Plan for employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their eligible dependents and former employees and their eligible dependents who were receiving retiree health care benefits. As otherwise provided in the Agreement, the Purchaser, the Company and its Subsidiaries will not reimburse the Seller or its Affiliate for any claims or obligations under the TECO Coal Medical Plan related to or incurred under COBRA continuation coverage for qualifying events that occur prior to the Closing.

(j) The provisions of this Section 5.2 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no employee or former employee of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof or any other individual associated therewith shall be regarded for any purpose as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement, and nothing herein shall be construed as an amendment to any Plan or Company Plan for any purpose. The parties acknowledge and agree that nothing contained in this Agreement, including in this Section 5.2, shall require Purchaser or any Affiliate thereof (including, after the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries) to maintain the employment of any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof.

Section 5.3 Publicity. Purchaser and Seller shall consult with each other with respect to any press release or public announcement pertaining to the execution of this Agreement and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public announcement prior to such consultation, except as may be required by Law or by any applicable listing agreement with a national securities exchange or national market system as determined in the good faith judgment of the party proposing to make such release.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Purchaser and its Representatives shall treat all materials and information obtained in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference. If this Agreement is, for any reason, terminated prior to the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as provided in Section 7.2.

(b) From and after the Closing, except as otherwise required by applicable Law, Purchaser shall, and shall cause each of the Company and its Subsidiaries to, keep confidential all proprietary or nonpublic information regarding Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) of which any of Purchaser, the Company or the Subsidiaries of the Company may be aware. Notwithstanding the foregoing, confidential information shall not include information that becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the receiving party or its Representatives in violation of the terms hereof.

(c) From and after the Closing, except as otherwise required by applicable Law, Seller shall keep confidential all proprietary or nonpublic information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, confidential information shall not include information that becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the receiving party or its Representatives in violation of the terms hereof.

Section 5.5 Access to Information. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to afford Purchaser and its Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to the officers, employees, agents, properties, offices and other facilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries and to their books and records, and shall furnish Purchaser with available financial, operating and other data and information with respect to the business and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Purchaser may reasonably request. From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to afford Seller and its Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to the officers, employees, agents, properties, offices and other facilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries and to their books and records to the extent reasonably required by Seller in connection with any investigation, audit, litigation, other Action or any other legitimate business purpose including reviewing Purchaser’s books and records that relate to the sale of Excess Coal Inventory. In exercising its rights hereunder, each of Purchaser and Seller shall (and shall cause each of its Representatives to) conduct itself so as not to materially interfere in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Seller acknowledges and agrees that any contact by Seller or its Representatives with officers, employees or agents of the Company or its Subsidiaries after Closing shall be arranged and supervised by Representatives of Purchaser, unless Purchaser otherwise expressly consents in writing with respect to any specific unsupervised contact.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall create an ownership and control file with all applicable Governmental Entities necessary to facilitate the approval, by all applicable Governmental Entities, of the change of ownership and control of the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Permit Approvals”) and shall assume primary responsibility (with the cooperation and assistance of Seller and its consultants and representatives) for preparing and assembling drafts of all Applications (as defined in Section 5.6(b) below) and other documentation to be submitted to the applicable Governmental Entities in connection with the Permit Approvals.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed upon, in writing, by the parties hereto, within thirty (30) Business Days following the Closing, (i) Purchaser and Seller shall execute and deliver to Purchaser, and Seller shall obtain and deliver to Purchaser the signatures of all contract miners used by the Company or its Subsidiaries on, all necessary applications and such other

forms as may be required by applicable Governmental Entities in connection with obtaining the Permit Approvals and, to the extent required, to designate Purchaser or its Affiliates as an “operator” under the Coal Mining Permits or Environmental Permits (the “Applications”), and (ii) Seller shall obtain and deliver to Purchaser a fully executed consent from each Person that has granted a dwelling distance waiver with respect to the Coal Mining Permits or the Environmental Permits, to the extent required by applicable Law. Unless otherwise agreed upon, in writing, by the parties hereto, Purchaser shall file the Applications with the applicable Governmental Entities within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of executed and fully completed Applications. Any and all necessary filing fees for the Applications, the cost of advertising the filing of the Applications and any and all costs payable to any Governmental Entity in connection with the Applications shall be borne by Purchaser; otherwise, each party will bear its own costs and expenses in connection with obtaining the Permit Approvals and designating Purchaser as an operator under the Coal Mining Permits or Environmental Permits, if required.

(c) When the applicable Governmental Entities deem the Applications to be technically acceptable and complete, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, post all bonds (or other appropriate collateral of a type satisfactory to the appropriate Governmental Entities) necessary to obtain the Permit Approvals and cause a full and complete release of Seller’s and its Affiliates’ bonds once the Permit Approvals are obtained. Seller and its Affiliates shall leave in place currently posted surety bonds related to the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits until the Permit Approvals have been obtained. However, if after twelve (12) months from the Closing Date any of the Permit Approvals have not been obtained, Purchaser shall, if permitted by the applicable Governmental Entities, replace (at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense) all of Seller’s and its Affiliates’ remaining bonds relating to such Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits with respect to which the Permit Approvals have not been obtained within thirty (30) days of the end of the 12-month period.

(d) Purchaser shall take all commercially reasonable steps necessary to ensure that, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Permit Approvals are obtained, all bonds of Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries), all deposits, letters of credit or collateral posted as security by Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) and any cash bonds or letters of credit posted by Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) directly with the applicable Governmental Entity in connection with the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits shall be refunded in full and/or returned to Seller and/or its Affiliates, as appropriate.

(e) Purchaser agrees to diligently prosecute the Application process contemplated hereby for the Permit Approvals. Without obtaining the prior written approval of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Purchaser agrees that it shall not seek in any of the Applications to change any condition of mining or reclamation obligation established in the Coal Mining Permits or Environmental Permits (other than the identity of the operator) or delete or add property to the Coal Mining Permits, if the

effect of such request or modification thereto would delay or otherwise hinder obtaining prompt approval of the Applications or the release of any bonds or other security of Seller or its Affiliates, except, in each case, (i) for actions ordered by an applicable Governmental Entity, (ii) as required to abate or resolve any notice of non-compliance, (iii) as required in connection with any mid-term review or renewal of any such Coal Mining Permits or Environmental Permits, (iv) as required in connection with any pending actions, or (v) as required in connection with similar permitting developments. Purchaser and Seller agree to sign all documents reasonably required by any Governmental Entity in connection with the Permit Approvals. In the event of the denial of any Permit Approval by the appropriate Governmental Entity, Purchaser shall, at Purchaser’s expense, until such denial is reversed, use commercially reasonable efforts to diligently pursue and exhaust all administrative and judicial remedies afforded to Purchaser in the event of such denial.

(f) At the Closing, Seller shall execute and deliver to Purchaser a power of attorney in a form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser appointing Purchaser to act as Seller’s attorney-in-fact for all purposes related to obtaining approval and/or filing notification of the change of control and/or obtaining approval of the transfer of the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits to Purchaser contemplated hereby.

(g) During the Interim Period, subject to any required administrative consent or approval and any other requirement of any Governmental Entity, Seller, to the extent Seller has a legal right to do so, designates Purchaser and its Affiliates as an operator under, and grants to Purchaser and its Affiliates the right to immediately engage in mining operations and all other legally permissible activities on the premises permitted under, the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Company Lease and the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits. With respect to such mining operations and other legally permissible activities conducted by Purchaser, the Company and its Subsidiaries during the Interim Period, Purchaser shall operate solely as an independent contractor and not as an agent, employee, or servant of Seller. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, (i) all of Purchaser’s post-Closing operations pursuant to this subsection shall be at the sole cost, risk, liability and expense of Purchaser and (ii) any benefit gained from such post-Closing operations by Purchaser pursuant to this subsection shall likewise be for the sole account and benefit of Purchaser.

(h) From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to perform and remain responsible for all Liabilities and Costs associated with the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, employees, representatives and other agents from any Losses or Costs incurred by them which arises, during the Interim Period, out of the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits or the conduct of the Business; provided, however, that neither Purchaser nor its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall be obligated to indemnify, reimburse, hold harmless or

otherwise be responsible for any premiums or other fees or costs associated with Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) maintaining bonds or other collateral with respect to the Coal Mining Permits or the Environmental Permits. During the Interim Period, Purchaser shall, to the extent it is necessary for it to operate thereunder, operate under each Coal Mining Permit and Environmental Permit in accordance with the terms of such Coal Mining Permit and Environmental Permit and all applicable Laws and shall comply, in all material respects, with all conditions and requirements of, or pertaining to, the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits, including all requirements imposed by other permits and governmental approvals granted in connection with the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits.

(i) During the Interim Period, Seller and its Representatives shall have the right, but not the obligation, to the extent Purchaser has the legal right to grant such right, to enter, during normal business hours, upon providing reasonable notice and without unreasonably interfering in the operations of Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, onto the premises subject to the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits for the purpose of ascertaining the condition and status of Purchaser’s, the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ operations located on the premises subject to the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits and for any other lawful purpose reasonably necessary to exercise its rights under this Agreement, including correcting, as permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any violations of any Laws pertaining to the premises subject to the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits that have not been, and are not being, corrected by Purchaser. Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith and shall grant, to the extent it has the legal right to do so, Seller and its Representatives rights of ingress and egress to permit Seller to exercise its rights under this Agreement.

(j) During the Interim Period, Purchaser shall maintain insurance covering the Business, its assets, or any Liabilities relating thereto under various policies of general liability and other forms of insurance that are typical in coverage and amount for entities engaged in the Business. Such insurance shall be maintained with a reputable insurance company that customarily insures risks in the coal industry. To the extent permitted under the applicable insurance policies, Purchaser shall designate Seller as an additional insured on all such policies and shall provide Seller with a certificate of insurance or other proof reasonably satisfactory to Seller as to such insurance coverage.

(k) If any notice of violation, non-compliance or similar occurrence is issued with respect to operations under any Coal Mining Permit or Environmental Permit during the Interim Period, Purchaser shall defend such violation, non-compliance or similar occurrence and, if applicable, pay all fines associated therewith, correct such violation, non-compliance or similar occurrence, and perform all abatement measures required by any Governmental Entity. During the Interim Period, if Seller receives a notice of violation or non-compliance under or with respect to such Coal Mining Permit or Environmental Permit, Seller will, promptly and in any event within two (2) Business Days (or in the case of receipt of a cessation order, immediately),

give Purchaser notice thereof. Purchaser shall have a duty to defend any violation or non-compliance and, if applicable, to pay all fines associated therewith, to correct any violation or non-compliance and to perform all abative measures required by any Governmental Entity. If Seller reasonably and in good faith determines that Purchaser will not defend any violation or non-compliance in a timely fashion, or Purchaser does not timely take all necessary actions to correct or abate any violation or non-compliance, Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation) to defend, correct and/or abate the violation or non-compliance and Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for all reasonable Costs incurred by Seller in defending, correcting or abating such violation or non-compliance, including reasonable attorney fees. Seller shall provide to Purchaser, within two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof, copies of all monthly inspection sheets received from any Governmental Entity with respect to the Coal Mining Permits or Environmental Permits or the operations or activities conducted thereon.

(l) Seller and Purchaser agree to fully cooperate with each other, and to cause their respective Affiliates, consultants and representatives to fully cooperate, in all filings, including providing any additional information and the preparation and execution of any additional documents, that may be necessary to obtain the Permit Approvals.

Section 5.7 Insurance. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that all insurance coverage for the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Business under policies (including self-insurance policies and programs) of Seller and its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall terminate as of the Closing and no claims may be brought thereunder by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and after the Closing for losses that occur after the Closing. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall retain their rights under all such insurance coverage for all claims filed thereunder prior to the Closing and the Company or its Subsidiaries may bring claims under such policies (including self-insurance policies and programs) that are occurrence-based policies for losses that occur prior to the Closing if permitted under such policies; provided, that such claims shall be at the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ sole cost and expense (including any applicable retentions or deductibles in connection with such claims). With respect to any claims for such coverage, the Company or its Subsidiaries shall control the claims process for any claim on which neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates (other than the Company or its Subsidiaries) is a party, and shall be entitled to any proceeds payable on such claims. With respect to any claims for such coverage on which either Seller or one or more of its Affiliates (other than the Company or its Subsidiaries) is a party, Seller shall control the claims process, but shall cooperate with the Company and its Subsidiaries and allow them to participate in such process, and the proceeds payable on any such claims shall be prorated among the claimants based on the information submitted with respect thereto. Seller shall not, and shall not permit its Affiliates to, terminate or modify any insurance policies (including any self-insurance policies or programs), or any provision thereof, to the extent that such policies, or provisions thereof, provide coverage to the Company or its Subsidiaries for Losses arising out of or relating to events occurring at or prior to the Closing. After the Closing

Date, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide any cooperation needed for the Company or its Subsidiaries to utilize the coverage provided by the insurance policies (including self-insurance policies and programs) contemplated by this Section for Losses arising out of or relating to events occurring prior to the Closing.

(a) At the Closing, Seller shall discharge (or cause to be extinguished or no longer outstanding), or shall cause one of its Affiliates to discharge (or otherwise cause to be extinguished or no longer outstanding), all Indebtedness of (i) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) any other Person guaranteed or secured by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective assets. It is understood and agreed by the parties that none of Seller or its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall have any obligation under this Agreement to discharge, extinguish or otherwise terminate, in whole or in part, any indemnities, performance bonds, performance or lease guarantees, letters of credit, capital leases or other leases or Contracts to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is party or by which any of them is bound (other than the Contracts and Indebtedness to be terminated or otherwise discharged pursuant to this Section 5.8(a), the Terminating Contracts contemplated to be terminated pursuant to Section 5.8(b) and the intercompany accounts contemplated to be settled pursuant to Section 5.8(c)).

(b) As of the Closing, except for those Contracts set forth in Section 5.8(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, all Contracts between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), on the other hand (the “Terminating Contracts”), shall be terminated as between them and shall be without any further force and effect, and there shall be no further obligations of any of the relevant parties thereunder. Purchaser agrees to take and to cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to take, and Seller agrees to take and to cause its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) to take, any action following the Closing that would be required to give effect to the termination of the Terminating Contracts.

(c) Except as set forth in Section 5.8(c) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, all intercompany accounts, whether payables or receivables, between Seller and any of its Affiliates (other than the Company and any of its Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and the Company and any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, as of the Closing shall be settled (in cash or through cash capital contributions, cash distributions, cancellations or otherwise in the sole discretion of Seller, provided that no such settlement will involve the creation or distribution of any Liabilities or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries other than Current Assets or Current Liabilities) at or prior to the Closing.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall attempt to obtain a substitute letter of credit to replace in all respects each Letter of Credit and used its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and deliver to Seller a full and unconditional release of all of the obligations of Seller and its applicable Affiliates with respect to such Letter of Credit (which release shall be reasonably acceptable to Seller). In the event Purchaser is unable, as of the Closing, to obtain substitute letters of credit to replace in all respects the Letters of Credit and obtain and deliver releases with respect thereto in accordance with the preceding sentence, Purchaser shall do so following the Closing and shall (i) obtain and deliver to Seller at the Closing one or more letters of credit in favor of Seller with an aggregate initial face amount equal to the aggregate amount as may be necessary to secure the maximum potential exposure under such continuing Letters of Credit, and otherwise on terms and conditions and from financial institutions, which in each case are reasonably satisfactory to Seller, (ii) indemnify and hold harmless each of Seller and its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) from and against any and all Losses incurred by Seller or any of its Affiliates arising out or relating to such Letters of Credit and (iii) not permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their Affiliates to (A) renew or extend the term of, (B) increase the obligations under, or (C) transfer to another third party, any loan, lease, Contract or other obligation for which Seller or any of its Affiliates is or would reasonably be expected to be liable under such Letters of Credit.

(b) Prior to the Closing, Purchaser (i) shall either (A) obtain a substitute guaranty, indemnity agreement or similar instrument to replace in all respects each Guarantee or (B) fully assume all obligations under each such Guarantee and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the creditor or beneficiary of each such Guarantee and deliver to Seller a full and unconditional release of all of the obligations of Seller and its applicable Affiliates under each such Guarantee (which release shall be reasonably acceptable to Seller). In the event Purchaser is unable, as of the Closing, to obtain substitute guarantees, indemnity agreements or similar instruments to replace in all respects the Guarantees (or assumed all obligations thereunder) and obtain and deliver releases with respect thereto in accordance with the preceding sentence, Purchaser shall continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to do so following the Closing and shall (1) indemnify and hold harmless each of Seller and its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) from and against any and all Losses incurred by Seller or any of its Affiliates arising out or relating to such Guarantees and (2) not permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their Affiliates to (x) renew or extend the term of, (y) increase the obligations under, or (z) transfer to another third party, any loan, lease, Contract or other obligation for which Seller or any of its Affiliates is or would reasonably be expected to be liable under such Guarantees. To the extent that Seller or any of its Affiliates has performance obligations under any such Guarantee, Purchaser shall (I) perform such obligations on behalf of Seller or such Affiliates or (II) otherwise take such action as reasonably requested by Seller so as to put Seller or such Affiliates in the same position as if Purchaser, and not Seller or such Affiliates, had performed or was performing such obligations.

(a) Purchaser acknowledges that, prior to the Closing, the Company or its Subsidiaries received from Seller or its Affiliates certain corporate and other services and support, including general and administrative services, audit services, legal services, human resources services, tax services, finance services, cash management services, information technology services and support and insurance and facilities-related support (collectively, the “Support Services”). Purchaser acknowledges that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement, the Support Services cease as of the Closing and all agreements and arrangements in respect thereof terminate as of the Closing, with no further obligation of any party thereto.

(b) No later than twenty (20) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to change their names and cause the articles of organization (or equivalent organizational document), as applicable, to be amended to remove any reference to “TECO” or any other name, Trademark or service mark used by Seller or any of its Affiliates that is set forth on Section 5.10(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule. Following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) to, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 120 days following the Closing Date, cease to (i) make any use of any names, Trademarks, or service marks that include (A) the terms “TECO” or any other name, Trademark, or service mark used by Seller or any of its Affiliates as set forth on Section 5.10(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, or (B) any names, Trademarks, or service marks containing or comprising the foregoing, including any names, Trademarks, or service marks confusingly similar thereto or dilutive thereof (collectively, the “Marks”), and (ii) hold themselves out as having any affiliation with Seller or any of its Affiliates. In furtherance thereof, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 120 days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) to, remove, strike over or otherwise obliterate all Marks from all assets and other materials, including any business cards, schedules, stationery, packaging materials, displays, signs, promotional materials, manuals, forms, websites, email, computer software and other materials and systems. Any use by Purchaser or its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) of any of the Marks as permitted in this Section 5.10(b) is subject to their compliance with the quality control requirements and guidelines in effect for the Marks as of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) not to, use the Marks in a manner that would be reasonably likely to reflect negatively on such name and Marks or on Seller or its Affiliates. Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) to, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and any of its Affiliates from and against any Losses relating to or arising from any use by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) of the Marks as permitted by this Section 5.10(b) or otherwise.

(a) Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date. Any such Tax Return (excluding for these purposes Income Tax Returns) shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law) and without a change of any election or any accounting method. The Company shall file or cause to be filed all such Tax Returns described in the preceding sentence and shall pay or cause to be paid all Taxes shown as due on such Tax Returns to the extent such Taxes are reflected in the Net Working Capital. Any Taxes in excess of the amount reflected in the Net Working Capital will be paid by Seller.

(b) All Transfer Taxes (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be borne and paid by Seller when due. Seller shall, at its expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Purchaser shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

(c) Seller shall have the right to control the conduct of any audit or administrative or judicial proceeding with respect to any Taxes of, or any Tax Return required to be filed by, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date.

(d) Except to the extent treated as a Liability in the calculation of Final Net Working Capital, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties (as defined in Section 8.2(a)) from and against (i) any Losses attributable to any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in this Section 5.11; and (ii) all Income Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for all periods ending on or before the Closing Date; in each of the above cases, together with any out of pocket fees and expenses (including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees) incurred in connection therewith. Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for any Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that are the responsibility of Seller pursuant to this Section 5.11 within ten Business Days after payment of such Taxes by any of the Purchase Indemnified Parties. Payments made pursuant to this Section 5.11(d) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless otherwise required by Law.

(e) Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) promptly providing and in all event within thirty (30) days of the request of the other party of records and information reasonably relevant to the filings of any Tax Returns and to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Purchaser and Seller shall retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company or its Subsidiaries relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations (taking into account any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods.

(f) Neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall, without the prior written consent of Seller, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, (i) make or change any Tax election affecting a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date of Seller or any of its Affiliates (including, before the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries), (ii) amend, refile or otherwise modify (or grant an extension of any applicable statute of limitations with respect to) any Tax Return prepared by Seller or any of its Affiliates (including, before the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries) relating to a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date, except as required by Law, (iii) carry back any Tax loss or other Tax attribute from a taxable period ending after the Closing Date to a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date or (iv) take any action that results in any increased Tax liability (including a reduction in a refund) or reduction of any Tax asset of any of the Company or its Subsidiaries (or Seller or any of its Affiliates) in respect of a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date, except as required by Law.

(g) Except in respect of the Conversions, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, Seller (and, prior to the Closing, the Company, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives) shall not with respect to any Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date, to the extent it may affect, or relate to, the Company or its Subsidiaries, make, change or rescind any Tax election, amend any Tax Return or take any position on any Tax Return, that would have the effect of increasing the Tax Liability of Purchaser, the Company or its Subsidiaries in respect of any period commencing on or after the Closing Date. Seller agrees hold harmless and indemnify Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) against any increased Tax Liability of Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) resulting from Seller (and, prior to the Closing, the Company, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives) making, changing or rescinding such Tax election, amending such Tax Return or taking such position on a Tax Return.

(h) If a refund of Taxes (to the extent not reflected on the Final Closing Balance Sheet) (the “Refund”) is received by or credited to the account of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of any taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause such recipient to pay the amount of the Refund to Seller.

(i) Not more than sixty (60) days after the determination of the Final Closing Adjustment, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a written statement setting forth the allocation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes of the Purchase Price and any Liabilities of the Company or its Subsidiaries, to the extent relevant, among the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). Seller shall deliver to Purchaser any

documentation reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with its review of the Purchase Price Allocation. Purchaser and Seller shall endeavor in good faith to agree on the Purchase Price Allocation. Unless otherwise agreed among Purchaser and Seller, if Purchaser and Seller have not agreed on the Purchase Price Allocation within ninety (90) days following the determination of the Final Closing Adjustment, then any disputed matter(s) will be finally and conclusively resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, as promptly as practicable, and such resolution(s) will be reflected in the Purchase Price Allocation. Purchaser and Seller shall each use its reasonable best efforts to furnish to the Independent Accounting Firm such work papers and other documents and information pertaining to each disputed item as the Independent Accounting Firm may request. Purchaser and Seller shall bear their own expenses in the preparation and review of the Purchase Price Allocation, except that the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be paid one-half by Purchaser and one-half by Seller. Purchaser and Seller shall file all Tax Returns (including, but not limited to, IRS Form 8594) consistent with the Purchase Price Allocation, and shall not take any position inconsistent with the Purchase Price Allocation; provided that the Purchase Price Allocation shall be adjusted by any other subsequent payment made under this Agreement that affects the Purchase Price for U.S. federal income Tax purposes.

(j) Any and all existing Tax sharing agreements (whether written or not) binding upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will be terminated prior to or as of the Closing Date. After such date, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will have any further Liabilities thereunder.

(k) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provision of Section 3.14 and this Section 5.11 shall survive for the full period all of applicable statues of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof) plus 60 days.

(l) The indemnification provisions in Article VIII shall apply to this Section 5.11. To the extent that any obligation or responsibility pursuant to Article VIII may overlap with an obligation or responsibility pursuant to this Section 5.11, the provisions of this Section 5.11 shall govern.

(a) For a period of five (5) years commencing on the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in the Restricted Business in the Territory; (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in the Restricted Business in the Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; or (iii) intentionally interfere in any material respect with the business relationships (whether formed prior to or after the date of this Agreement) between the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and customers or suppliers of the Company and

its Subsidiaries, on the other hand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any national securities exchange if Seller is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own 5% or more of any class of securities of such Person.

(b) During the Restricted Period, Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries or encourage any such employee to leave such employment or hire any such employee who has left such employment, except pursuant to a general solicitation which is not directed specifically to any such employees; provided, that nothing in this Section 5.12(b) shall prevent Seller or any of its Affiliates from hiring (i) any employee whose employment has been terminated by the Company, its Subsidiaries, or Purchaser, (ii) after 365 days from the date of termination of employment, any employee whose employment has been terminated by the employee, (iii) any employee who responds to solicitation not specifically targeted at employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries (including by a search firm or recruiting agency) or (iv) any employee who initiates discussions regarding employment without any solicitation by Seller or any of its Affiliates in violation of this Agreement.

(c) During the Restricted Period, Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, solicit or entice, or attempt to solicit or entice, any clients or customers of the Company or its Subsidiaries or potential clients or customers of the Company or its Subsidiaries for purposes of diverting their business or services from the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(d) Seller acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 5.12 would give rise to irreparable harm to Purchaser, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Seller of any such obligations, Purchaser shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

(e) Seller acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.12 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Purchaser and constitute a material inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 5.12 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted

by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 5.12 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 5.13 Release. From and after the Closing, Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby releases and forever discharges Purchaser, the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Releasees”) from any and all claims, demands, actions, Contracts and Liabilities and Costs whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, both at Law and in equity, which Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) now has, has ever had or may hereafter have against the respective Purchaser Releasees arising prior to or contemporaneously with the Closing or on account of or arising out of any matter, cause or event occurring contemporaneously with or prior to the Closing, whether or not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the Closing. From and after the Closing, Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby releases and forever discharges Seller, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Releasees”) from any and all claims, demands, actions, Contracts and Liabilities and Costs whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, both at Law and in equity, which Company or its Affiliates now has, has ever had or may hereafter have against the respective Seller Releasees arising prior to or contemporaneously with the Closing or on account of or arising out of any matter, cause or event occurring contemporaneously with or prior to the Closing, whether or not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5.13 shall in any way limit or otherwise restrict any rights Seller may have against Purchaser or Purchaser may have against Seller arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(a) Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain the Financing, including using commercially reasonable efforts to (i) negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect thereto and (ii) satisfy (or seek a waiver of) on a timely basis all conditions within the control of Purchaser and required to be satisfied by it, and otherwise comply with all terms applicable to Purchaser, in such definitive agreements. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller true and complete copies of all commitment letters pursuant to which any lender or other financing source (each, a “Financing Source”) shall have committed to provide Purchaser with any portion of the Financing. Purchaser shall keep Seller reasonably informed of the status of its efforts to arrange and secure the Financing.

(b) Seller shall, and shall cause the Company to, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide all cooperation reasonably requested by Purchaser and/or the Financing Sources that is necessary and customary to assist Purchaser in connection with Purchaser obtaining the Financing, including, to the extent permitted by lessors or sub-lessors, as the case may be, the recording of leases, sub-leases or memoranda thereof constituting the Material Leased Real Property, provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Section 5.15 Conversions to LLCs. Not less than five (5) Business days prior to the Closing date, Seller shall cause the Company and all of the Subsidiaries of the Company to be converted from corporations to Kentucky limited liability companies (the “Conversions”) and Seller shall provide Purchaser with evidence reasonably satisfactory thereof, together with a copy of all documents, agreements and instruments executed in connection therewith.

Section 5.16 Reasonable Best Efforts. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein provided, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of the parties agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions, to do or cause to be done and to assist and cooperate with the other party in doing all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated hereby, including (a) the satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the obligations of any of the parties, (b) the obtaining of applicable consents, waivers or approvals of any Governmental Entities or third parties, (c) the defending of any Actions challenging this Agreement or the performance of the obligations hereunder and (d) the execution and delivery of such instruments, and the taking of such other actions as the other party may reasonably require in order to carry out the intent of this Agreement. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, and notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Purchaser, Seller, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates shall be obligated to grant or expend anything of material value, or perform any extraordinary service or other extraordinary actions, to obtain any applicable consent, waiver or approval.

Section 5.17 Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(a) From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in writing of:

(i) any fact, circumstance, event or action the existence, occurrence or taking of which (A) has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in

the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or (B) has resulted in, or would reasonably be expected to result in, the failure of any of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VI to be satisfied;

(ii) any written notice or other written communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(iii) any written notice or other written communication from any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(iv) any Actions commenced or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting Seller, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that, if pending on the date of this Agreement, would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to Section 3.10 or that challenges the validity or enforceability of this Agreement.

(b) Purchaser’s receipt of information pursuant to this Section 5.18 shall not operate as a waiver or otherwise affect any representation, warranty or agreement given or made by Seller in this Agreement (including Section 8.2) and shall not be deemed to amend or supplement the Seller Disclosure Schedule.

(b) Seller agrees that the rights and remedies for noncompliance with this Section 5.19 shall include having such provision specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach shall cause irreparable injury to Purchaser and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to Purchaser.

Section 5.20 Excess Coal Inventory. From the Closing Date until the date the Excess Coal Inventory Value is paid in full, Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries, after the Closing to use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its and their respective obligations under any existing coal sales contract.

(c) The period of time a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement survives the Closing pursuant to this Section 8.1 shall be the “Survival Period” with respect to such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement. In the event notice of any claim for indemnification under this Article VIII shall have been given within the applicable Survival Period (and with reasonable specificity) and such claim has not been finally resolved by the expiration of such Survival Period, the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements that are the subject of such claim shall survive with respect to such claim until such claim is finally resolved.

(a) Following the Closing, subject to the terms of this Article VIII, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser, its Affiliates and their respective directors and officers, shareholders, employees, representatives and other agents (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from and against any actual claims, Liabilities, losses, judgments, settlements, damages, costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, the “Losses”) incurred by any Purchaser Indemnified Party by reason of (i) any breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in Article III (in each case, as of the Closing Date, except to the extent such representations and warranties shall have been expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such earlier date); (ii) any breach of or default in the performance of any of the covenants or agreements of Seller contained in this Agreement; (iii) the Excluded Liabilities; or (iv) any Liabilities or Costs of Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) or the businesses, Contracts, properties or other assets of Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries), including Liabilities or Costs arising or resulting from any guaranty, guarantee, indemnity or similar obligation of the Company or its Subsidiaries with respect to Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries and other than as provided in Section 5.9(a)).

(b) The obligation of Seller to indemnify any Purchaser Indemnified Party for Losses in accordance with Section 8.2(a)(i) shall be subject to the following limitations: (i) Seller shall not be required to provide indemnification to any Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) unless the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by all the Purchaser Indemnified Parties in respect of all Claims against Seller for indemnification under Section 8.2(a)(i) (“Purchaser Claims”) exceeds $1,000,000 (the “Basket”), provided, that once the Basket has been exceeded, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification for only the amount in excess of the Basket, provided further that once the Basket has been exceeded, no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to make a claim against Seller for indemnification under Section 8.2(a)(i) unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses incurred

by such Purchaser Indemnified Party with respect to the event or occurrence giving rise to such Purchaser Claim exceeds $10,000; and (ii) in no event shall the aggregate amount of Losses for which Seller is obligated to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) exceed 15% of the Purchase Price (the “Ceiling”). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the limitations contained in this Section 8.2(b) shall not apply to Purchaser Claims under Section 8.2(a)(i) for breach of representations or warranties contained in Section 3.1 (Corporate Status), Section 3.2 (Authorization), Section 3.5 (Capital Structure), Section 3.14 (Taxes), and Section 3.25 (Brokers’ Fees).

(a) Following the Closing, subject to the terms of this Article VIII, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller, its Affiliates and their respective directors and officers, shareholders, employees, representatives and other agents (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Losses incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party by reason of (i) any breach of any of the representations or warranties of Purchaser contained in Article IV (in each case, as of the Closing Date, except to the extent such representations and warranties shall have been expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such earlier date), (ii) any breach of or default in the performance of any of the covenants or agreements of Purchaser contained in this Agreement that by their terms are to be performed in whole or in part, or which prohibit actions, subsequent to the Closing Date, including without limitation Purchaser’s obligations under Section 5.2(a); (iii) the conduct of the Business during the Interim Period, including by reason of any actions or failures to act of Purchaser relating to the Business, the Coal Mining Permits and Environmental Permits (including bonds and other security therefor), the Owned Real Property, the Leased Real Property and Purchaser’s mining operations or (iv) any Liabilities or Costs of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (other than Liabilities or Costs of the Company or its Subsidiaries that are not Excluded Liabilities and that arise from events, circumstances, actions, or any failure to act prior to the Closing) or the businesses, Contracts, properties or assets of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (other than Liabilities or Costs of the Company or its Subsidiaries that are not Excluded Liabilities and that arise from events, circumstances, actions, or any failure to act prior to the Closing).

(b) The obligation of Purchaser to indemnify any Seller Indemnified Party for Losses in accordance with Section 8.3(a)(i) shall be subject to the following limitations: (i) Purchaser shall not be required to provide indemnification to any Seller Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 8.3(a)(i) unless the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by all the Seller Indemnified Parties in respect of all claims against Purchaser for Indemnification under Section 6.3(a)(i) (“Seller Claims”) exceeds the Basket, provided, that once the Basket has been exceeded, the Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification for only the amount in excess of the Basket; and (iii) in no event shall the aggregate amount of Losses for which Purchaser is obligated to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 8.3(a)(i) exceed the Ceiling.

(a) In the event that any Action is commenced by a third party involving a claim for which a party required to provide indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnifying Party”) may be liable to a party entitled to indemnification (an “Indemnified Party”) hereunder (an “Asserted Liability”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Asserted Liability (the “Claim Notice”); provided, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in giving any such Claim Notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any indemnification obligation hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay. Any Claim Notice shall set forth, with as much specificity as is reasonably practicable, the basis of the claim for the Losses, the section(s) of this Agreement that form the basis for such claim, copies of all material written materials relating to such claim and, to the extent reasonably practicable, a reasonable estimate of the amount of the Losses that have been or may be incurred by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party, upon giving written notice to such Indemnified Party, will be entitled to assume the defense of such Asserted Liability, in whole or in part, at its own cost, with counsel of its own choosing and, in such an event, (i) the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to prosecute, appeal, negotiate, resolve, settle, compromise, arbitrate or otherwise pursue such Asserted Liability and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have no obligation to indemnify or pay for or reimburse any Indemnified Party for any attorneys’ fees, investigation costs or litigation expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party after the assumption of the defense of such Asserted Liability; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle, compromise, resolve or consent to the entry of any judgment in respect of any Asserted Liability if any Indemnified Party is a party to the applicable claim or has been actually threatened to be made a party thereto unless such settlement, compromise, resolution or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Asserted Liability and provides solely for monetary relief to be satisfied by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend against such Asserted Liability, the Indemnified Party shall: (i) fully cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the investigation, defense and settlement thereof and (ii) have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Asserted Liability with counsel selected by it (and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party) subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control, pay or settle any Asserted Liability that the Indemnifying Party shall have undertaken to defend, so long as the Indemnified Party shall also waive any right to indemnification therefor by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party

shall not be liable for any settlement of any Asserted Liability by an Indemnified Party without the Indemnifying Party’s written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon notice to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense or control of a Asserted Liability and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party hereunder if (x) such Asserted Liability relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, or (y) such Asserted Liability seeks injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, provided that, in any such case, the party against which the Asserted Liability is asserted hereunder shall have the right to retain its own counsel (but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such party) and participate in the defense of such Asserted Liability, and the Indemnified Party shall not be liable for any settlement of such Asserted Liability without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(b) In calculating amounts payable to an Indemnified Party, the amount of any indemnified Losses shall be determined without duplication of any other Loss for which an indemnification claim has been made under any other representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement and shall be computed net of (i) payments received or reasonably expected to be received by the Indemnified Party under any insurance policy with respect to such Losses, (ii) any prior or subsequent recovery by the Indemnified Party from any Person with respect to such Losses and (iii) any net Tax benefit realized or reasonably expected to be realized by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Losses. If an Indemnified Party realizes a Tax benefit or receives an amount under insurance coverage with respect to Losses sustained at any time subsequent to any indemnification provided pursuant to this Article VIII, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the applicable Indemnifying Party for any payment made by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification up to such amount realized or received by the Indemnified Party.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII, or to make a claim for breach of any other provision of this Agreement or to any other remedy at Law or in equity, (i) if such Indemnified Party has expressly waived in writing the breach of or inaccuracy in a representation or warranty or the failure to perform a covenant or agreement made by the other party, which, for purposes of clarification, shall not include any implied waiver resulting from the Closing or otherwise, (ii) with respect to any Liability that was the subject of a dispute submitted to, and resolved by, the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 2.3(f) or that was resolved by written agreement of the parties pursuant to Section 2.3(f) or (iii) to the extent any Losses were attributable to such Indemnified Party’s own fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Indemnified Party shall take all reasonable steps to mitigate any Losses upon and after becoming aware of any facts, matters, failures or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to result in any Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder. In the event the Indemnified Party shall fail to take, or cause to be taken, such reasonable steps, then notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not be

required to indemnify the Indemnified Party for that portion of Losses that could reasonably have been expected to have been avoided if the Indemnified Party had taken such commercially reasonable steps.

(d) To the extent that the Indemnifying Party makes any payment pursuant to this Article VIII in respect of Losses for which the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates have a right to recover against a third party (including an insurance company), the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the right of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates to seek and obtain recovery from such third party; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party shall be prohibited from such subrogation, the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates, as applicable, shall seek recovery from such third party on the Indemnifying Party’s behalf and pay any such recovery to the Indemnifying Party.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall Seller or Purchaser be liable under this Article VIII for any punitive, incidental, indirect, treble, special or consequential damages.

(f) Any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

(g) Except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct and except as set forth in Section 5.4, Section 5.9 and Section 5.10(b), the remedies provided in this Article VIII shall be deemed the sole and exclusive remedies of the parties, from and after the Closing Date, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that the foregoing shall not prevent or prohibit any party hereto from seeking specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy.

Section 9.1 Assignment; Binding Effect. This Agreement and the rights hereunder are not assignable unless such assignment is consented to in writing by both Purchaser and Seller and, subject to the preceding clause, this Agreement and all the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that Purchaser shall be entitled to assign this Agreement and its right hereunder, in whole or in part, to any of its Affiliates without any consent from Seller, but Purchaser shall not be relieved from any liability hereunder as a result of such assignment.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted and enforced in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflicts of laws rules thereof.

(b) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 9.3 Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. All judicial Actions brought against the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any obligations hereunder, shall be brought in the Delaware Court of Chancery located in Wilmington, Delaware, to the extent such court can assert jurisdiction over such judicial Action and otherwise in any state court located in Wilmington, Delaware or the courts of the United States located in Wilmington, Delaware. By executing and delivering this Agreement, the parties irrevocably: (a) accept generally and unconditionally the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any state court located in Wilmington, Delaware or the courts of the United States located in Wilmington, Delaware; (b) waive any objections that such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid Actions arising out of or in connection with this Agreement brought in the courts referred to in clause (a) above and hereby further irrevocably waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that such Action brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum; (c) agree that service of all process in any such Action in any such court may be made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to such party at their respective addresses provided in accordance with Section 9.4; and (d) agree that service as provided in clause (c) above is sufficient to confer personal jurisdiction over such party in any such Action in any such court, and otherwise constitutes effective and binding service in every respect.

Section 9.4 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) when received if delivered personally, (b) when sent by facsimile or e-mail (which is confirmed by the intended recipient), and (c) when received by the addressee when sent by overnight courier service or when mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice):

Section 9.5 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be considered in interpreting or construing any of the provisions contained in this Agreement.

Section 9.6 Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses (including investment advisory and legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 9.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule, the Seller Disclosure Schedule and the Exhibits) and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to such subject matter; provided, however, this Agreement shall not supersede the terms and provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall survive and remain in effect until expiration or termination thereof in accordance with its terms and this Agreement.

(a) When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article, Section, Schedule or Exhibit, such reference shall be to an Article, Section, Schedule or Exhibit of or to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

(b) Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

(c) When a reference in this Agreement is made to a “party” or “parties,” such reference shall be to a party or parties to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

(d) Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto” and derivative or similar words in this Agreement refer to this entire Agreement.

(e) Unless the context requires otherwise, words in this Agreement using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively, and the use of any gender herein shall be deemed to include the other genders.

(f) References in this Agreement to “dollars” or “$” are to U.S. dollars.

(g) This Agreement was prepared jointly by the parties and no rule that it be construed against the drafter will have any application in its construction or interpretation.

Section 9.9 Seller Disclosure Schedule. Although Seller will use its reasonable best efforts to cross-reference applicable Sections of the Seller Disclosure Schedule where appropriate, any matter disclosed in any Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosed for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Sections of the Seller Disclosure Schedule to the extent that it is readily apparent that such disclosure is applicable to such other Sections of the Seller Disclosure Schedule. The inclusion of any information in any Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment or otherwise imply that such information is required to be listed in any Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or that any such matter rises to a Material Adverse Effect or is material to or outside the ordinary course of business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Business (or that any such matter is above any specified threshold). Matters reflected in the Seller Disclosure Schedule are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Seller Disclosure Schedule. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes and the Seller Disclosure Schedule does not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. All references in the Seller Disclosure Schedule to the enforceability of agreements with third parties, the existence or non-existence of third-party rights, the absence of breaches or defaults by third parties, or similar matters or statements, are intended only to allocate rights and risks between Purchaser and Seller and are not intended to be admissions against interests, give rise to any inference or proof of accuracy, be admissible against any party to this Agreement by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement, or give rise to any claim or benefit to any Person who is not a party to this Agreement. In addition, the disclosure of any matter in the Seller Disclosure Schedule is not to be deemed an admission that such matter actually constitutes non-compliance with, or a violation of, any Law, Permit or Contract or other topic to which such disclosure is applicable. In no event shall the disclosure of matters disclosed in the Seller Disclosure Schedule or the Electronic Data Room be deemed or interpreted to broaden Seller’s representations and warranties, obligations, covenants, conditions or agreements contained in this Agreement. The headings contained in the Seller Disclosure Schedule are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to modify or influence the interpretation of the information contained in the Seller Disclosure Schedule or this Agreement.

Section 9.10 Waiver and Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by a written mutual agreement executed and delivered by Seller and Purchaser. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any failure of any party to comply

with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligations, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

Section 9.11 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when executed, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument binding upon all of the parties, notwithstanding the fact that all of the parties are not signatory to the original or the same counterpart. For purposes of this Agreement, signatures delivered by facsimile or in portable document format (.pdf) shall be deemed originals.

Section 9.12 Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein express or implied shall give or be construed to give to any Person, other than the parties and such successors and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder; provided, however, that the provisions in Article VIII concerning indemnification are intended for the benefit of the Persons entitled to indemnity thereunder.

Section 9.13 Specific Performance. The parties agree that, if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at Law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine, and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at Law or in equity.

Section 9.14 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed the day and year first above written.
