O&M Component. (i) The O&M Component, in respect of the Initial Operating Period and the Initial Year (the “Initial O&M Component”), is the product of (i) $***** per Ton of Coke multiplied by (ii) the adjustment factor set forth in Schedule 3.1(c)(i). Provided, however, if the Initial Year commences on or before April 30th, then the O&M Component for such Initial Year shall be determined in the manner set forth in Sections 3.1(c)(ii) - (ix). (ii) At least ninety (90) calendar days prior to the commencement of each Contract Year, Provider will deliver to Off-Taker a good faith forecast (the “Forecast”) that sets forth in reasonable detail the projected O&M Expenses for the next ensuing Contract Year, which shall include sufficient supporting information for Off-Taker to reasonably verify the Forecast. Provider will also provide with the Forecast a projection of the expected production and Coke Price for the current Contract Year. Such Forecast shall be based upon (A) historic operations and maintenance history at other comparable domestic coke making facilities that utilize SunCoke Energy, Inc.’s proprietary heat recovery coke making technology as such history applies to the Plant; (B) historic operations and maintenance history at the Plant; (C) subject to Article VIII and Section 3.3(b), compliance with Governmental Requirements in respect of the Plant; (D) Targeted Coke Production in respect of the Coal Blend(s) to be utilized during such Contract Year; (E) labor expenses; (F) Prudent Operating and Maintenance Practices reasonably required to maintain the Plant in reasonable operating condition considering the age of the Plant, its originally projected useful life of thirty (30) years, and Provider’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Steam and Coke production and the quality requirements set forth in this Agreement); (G) reasonable contingency amounts; (H) the amount of activated carbon or comparable product reasonably required to comply with the minimum mercury removal requirement set forth in the Installation Permit; and (1) other conditions specific to the Plant and Provider’s performance hereunder (collectively, the “Guidelines”). Such Forecast shall not exceed the applicable O&M Component Limit. Provider shall deliver such Forecast to Off-Taker for approval by it, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld (as set forth in Section 3.1(c)(iii)). Provided, however, for the first Contract Year, (i) such Forecast shall be delivered to Off-Taker not less than one hundred-Eighty (180) days prior to the commencement of such first Contract Year, which if such year commences prior to April 30th will be the first Contract Year; and (ii) if Provider has reason to believe that the Initial Year will commence on or before April 30th, then Provider shall prepare a Forecast for such Year and such Forecast shall be pro-rated for the balance of such Year (provided such Year turns out to be the first Contract Year) following the expiration of the Initial Operating Period (namely, the O&M Expenses set forth in the Forecast shall, unless otherwise indicated in such Forecast, be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is number of days transpiring during the applicable balance of such Initial Year, and the denominator of which is the number of days transpiring during such Initial Year). In addition to the Forecast, Provider shall also prepare and provide to Off-Taker an estimate of the anticipated Pass-Through Expenses. (iii) Within fifteen (15) calendar days following Provider’s delivery of each such Forecast to Off-Taker, Provider and Off-Taker shall confer in good faith for the purpose of reviewing and approving such Forecast. Upon approval of such Forecast in Writing by the Off-Taker, the Forecast shall be the approved O&M Expenses for the Contract Year for which the applicable Forecast was prepared and approved.

Such disapproval shall set forth the specific grounds therefore including, without limitation, any alleged inconsistency thereof with the Guidelines, and any such dispute may be referred by either Party to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article XI. Provided, however, pending such resolution, (1) the O&M Expenses in respect of the preceding Contract Year plus the product of (y) the O&M Expenses in respect of the preceding Contract Year multiplied by (z) the available Annual Index Percentage for the most recent twelve Month period preceding such Contract Year (collectively, the “Presumed O&M Expenses”), shall be the basis for the O&M Expenses for the period during which such dispute is pending, and (ii) if, following the conclusion of the dispute resolution procedures under Article XI, it is determined that the O&M Expenses approved pursuant to such arbitration are greater or less than the Presumed O&M Expenses, then Off-Taker or, as applicable, Provider shall pay to the other Party the product of such difference between (i) the (y) Presumed O&M Expenses for the applicable Contract Year or, as applicable, in respect of the Initial Year (calculated on a per Ton of Coke basis), and (z) the O&M Expenses approved pursuant to such arbitration (calculated on a per Ton of Coke basis), multiplied by (ii) the Coke Tonnage sold by Provider to Off-Taker based upon such Presumed O&M Expenses, plus (unless otherwise agreed upon by the Parties) interest accrued thereon at the Interest Rate. Such payment shall be, as applicable, added to or credited against the amount otherwise payable by Off-Taker to Provider in accordance with Monthly invoice immediately following any such award.

If, subject to the O&M Component Limit, the Actual O&M Component is greater than the Forecasted O&M Component, then ***** percent (*****%) of the difference multiplied by the Coke Tonnage delivered and invoiced by Provider to Off-Taker during such quarter shall be added to amounts otherwise payable in accordance with the Monthly invoice in respect of the Month following such Written update. If, however, the Actual O&M Component is less than the Forecasted O&M Component, then ***** percent (*****%) of such difference in excess of ***** dollar ($*****) multiplied by the Coke Tonnage delivered and invoiced by Provider to Off-Taker during such quarter shall be credited to amounts otherwise payable in accordance with the Monthly invoice in respect of the Month following such Written update. (x) After taking into account the quarterly payments or credits made in accordance with Section 3.1(c)(ix), the net credit (as set forth in Section 3.1(c)(vi)) or the net payment (as set forth in Section 3.1(c)(vii)) in respect of each Contract Year shall, subject to the O&M Component Limit, as applicable, be added to or deducted from the amounts otherwise payable in accordance with the Monthly invoice in respect of the second Month following the end of the applicable Contract Year.
