set forth below (whether such
5
determination is made by the Managing Partner in determining the Partnership
Valuation, an objecting Partner in determining the Partner Appraised Value, or
an Independent Appraiser in determining the Independent Valuation):
(a) First, the Fair Market Value of the Partnership Property
immediately before the disproportionate Capital Contribution or
distribution will be determined;
(b) Second, the difference between the aggregate value of the
Partnership Property and the total of the Partnership debt will be
allocated among the Partners in proportion to the Partnership
Percentages in effect immediately before the disproportionate Capital
Contribution or distribution;
(c) Third, each Partner's Capital Contribution at the time of
the disproportionate Capital Contribution will be added to, and each
Partner's distribution at the time of the disproportionate distribution
will be subtracted from, that Partner's allocable share of the net
value of the Partnership Property immediately before the
disproportionate Capital Contribution or distribution; and
(d) Finally, each Partner's sum or difference determined under
(c), above, will be expressed as a percentage of the aggregate sums or
differences of all Partners determined under (c), above.
The Managing Partner, based upon such considerations as the
Managing Partner, in its sole discretion, determines to be relevant to such
valuation, shall determine the Fair Market Value of the Partnership Property and
the resulting Partnership Percentages pursuant to the fourth sentence of this
Section (such valuation and resulting Partnership Percentages being hereafter
referred to as the "Partnership Valuation"). If a Partner objects in writing to
the Partnership Valuation, such Partner may, at its sole cost and expense and
within fourteen (14) days from the date of such written objection, engage an
appraiser to determine within 30 days of such appointment the Fair Market Value
of the Partnership Property and the resulting Partnership Percentages in
accordance with the fourth sentence of this Section (the "Partner Appraised
Value"). If the Partner Appraised Value is at least eighty percent (80%) of the
Initial Value and less than or equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the
Initial Value, then the Partnership Percentages shall be based upon the average
of the Partnership Valuation and the Partner Appraised Value. If the Partner
Appraised Value is less than eighty percent (80%) of the Initial Value or more
than one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Initial Value, then the Managing
Partner and the Partner(s) objecting to the Partnership Valuation shall, within
fourteen (14) days from the date of the Partner Appraised Value, mutually agree
on an appraiser (the "Independent Appraiser"). The cost of the Independent
Appraiser shall be borne equally by the Partnership and the Partner(s) objecting
to the Partnership Valuation. The Independent Appraiser shall determine within
14 days after its appointment the Fair Market Value of the Partnership Property
and the resulting Partnership Percentages pursuant to the fourth sentence of
this Section (such valuation and resulting Partnership Percentages being
hereafter referred to as the "Independent Valuation"), but such Independent
Valuation shall be not less than the smaller of the Partnership Valuation and
the
6
Partner Appraised Value nor greater than the larger of the Partnership Valuation
and the Partner Appraised Value. The Independent Valuation as so determined
shall be binding upon the Partnership and each of the Partners. The Partnership
shall cooperate in assisting the appraisers in conducting the foregoing
appraisals, including providing reasonable access to the books and records of
the Partnership and to such other information as the appraisers reasonably
request in connection with such determinations; provided, however, that nothing
in this Agreement shall require the Partnership to disclose privileged or
proprietary information; and provided further, that the Partnership may require
such appraisers to enter into such confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements
as the Managing Partner reasonably believes to be necessary to protect the
interests of the Partnership and its Partners. The Managing Partner may by a
majority vote of its Board of Directors establish a disproportionate monthly or
other periodic draws during the calendar year but any such disproportionate
draws shall not be regarded as disproportionate distributions if compensating
distributions, determined with or without interest in the discretion of the
Managing Partner, are made by the end of March of the following calendar year so
that the periodic draws and compensating distributions in the aggregate are
proportionate. A successor or assign of a Partner shall succeed to that portion
of the predecessor Partner's Partnership Percentage which is assigned or
otherwise transferred to that successor or assign in accordance with the
provisions of Section 7.
1.49 "Partnership Property" means any property, real, personal or
mixed, or any interest therein or appurtenant thereto which may be owned or
acquired by the Partnership.
means any individual, estate, trust, corporation, partnership, limited
liability company, joint venture, unincorporated organization or other entity,
association or organization.
1.51 "Proportionate Part" means, with respect to any Partner or Family
Group, the Partnership Percentage of such Partner or the aggregate Partnership
Percentage of such Family Group.
1.52 "Purchase Price" shall mean the Fair Market Value of the Offered
Interests or Option Interests, as the case may be, determined as follows:
(a) Initial Value. The Managing Partner shall from time to
time determine a value for the Partnership Interests (the "Initial Value") based
upon such considerations as the Managing Partner, in its sole discretion,
determines to be relevant to such valuation. If a Selling Partner or Outside
Partner (for purposes of this Section 1.52, the "Objecting Party") does not
provide written objections to Partnership concerning the Initial Value set forth
in the Valuation Notice within 10 days after the date of such Valuation Notice,
the Purchase Price shall be equal to the Initial Value.
(b) Appraised Value. If an Objecting Party objects in writing
to the Initial Valuation within 10 days after its receipt of the Valuation
Notice, the Objecting Party, within fourteen (14) days from the date of such
written objection, shall engage an appraiser (the "First Appraiser") to
determine within 30 days of such appointment the Fair Market Value of the Shares
(the "First Appraised Value"). The cost of the First Appraiser shall be borne by
the
7
Objecting Party. If the First Appraised Value is at least eighty percent (80%)
of the Initial Value and less than or equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%)
of the Initial Value, then the Purchase Price shall be the average of the
Partnership Valuation and the Partner Appraised Value. If the First Appraised
Value is less than eighty percent (80%) of the Initial Value or more than one
hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Initial Value, then the Partnership and the
Objecting Party shall, within fourteen (14) days from the date of the First
Appraised Value, mutually agree on an appraiser (the "Final Appraiser"). The
cost of the Final Appraiser shall be borne equally by the Partnership and the
Objecting Party. The Final Appraiser shall determine within 14 days after its
appointment the Fair Market Value of the Shares (the "Final Valuation"), but
such Final Valuation shall be not less than the smaller of the Initial Value and
the First Appraised Value nor greater than the larger of the Initial Value and
the First Appraised Value. The Purchase Price shall be equal to the Final
Valuation and shall be final and binding upon the parties to this Agreement for
purposes of the subject transaction.
(c) Mutually Agreed Upon Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the
procedure set forth above, the Partnership and an Objecting Party may, prior to
or at any time during the appraisal process, mutually agree on a single
independent appraiser to determine the Purchase Price, which determination shall
be binding on all of the parties, or may agree in writing upon a Purchase Price.
(d) Cooperation with Appraisers. The Partnership shall
cooperate in assisting the appraisers in determining the Purchase Price,
including providing reasonable access to the books and records of the
Partnership and to such other information as the appraisers reasonably request
in connection with such determination; provided, however, that nothing in this
Agreement shall require the Partnership to disclose privileged or proprietary
information; and provided further, that the Partnership may require such
appraisers to enter into such confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements as
the Managing Partner reasonably believes to be necessary to protect the
interests of the Partnership and its Partners.
1.53 "Purchase Right" shall have the meaning set forth in Section 7.4.
1.54 "Qualified Fiduciary" means (a) the trustee of any trust
(including without limitation a voting trust) if and as long as the trust is
held for the benefit of one or more Authorized Transferees and no other Person,
or (b) the executor, administrator, guardian, personal representative or other
fiduciary of a deceased, incompetent, bankrupt or insolvent Authorized
Transferee; provided that any such trust must prohibit the transfer of
Partnership Interests to any Persons other than (x) the Person or Persons who
established the trust, and (y) Authorized Transferees of the Person or Persons
who established such trust.
1.55 "Remaining Interests" shall have the meaning set forth in Section
7.6(b).
1.56 "Seller's Notice" shall have the meaning set forth in Section
7.4(a).
1.57 "Selling Partner" shall have the meaning set forth in Section 7.4.

encumbrance, disposition, transfer (including, without limitation, a transfer by
will or intestate distribution), gift or attempt to create or grant a security
interest in Partnership Interests, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation
of law or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the occurrence of an event discussed in Sections 1.17(a), 1.17(b), or
1.17(c), pursuant to which a Family Member ceases to be a Family Member and is
thereafter treated as an Outside Partner, shall not constitute a "Transfer" for
purposes of triggering the exercise of Purchase Rights under Section 7.4 of this
Agreement.
1.60 "Valuation Notice" shall mean the notice given by the Partnership
pursuant to Sections 7.4(b) or 7.5(a) and stating the Initial Value at which a

3.1 Validity of Agreement. This Agreement, and each and every other
agreement, document and instrument provided for herein and to which such Partner
is or shall be a party, when executed and delivered, shall constitute the valid
and binding obligation of such Partner, enforceable against such Partner in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (a)
bankruptcy or similar laws from time to time in effect affecting the enforcement
of creditors' rights generally or (b) the availability of equitable remedies
generally.
3.2 No Violation of Material Instruments. The execution and delivery of

any obligation under, or give rise to a right by any party to terminate its
obligations under any material agreement, instrument, order, judgment, decree or
other arrangement to which such Partner is a party or by which he is bound or
his assets affected; or
(b) require any consent, approval, filing or notice under any
provision of law, or violate any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction,
decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to such Partner.
4. CAPITAL
4.1 Initial Contributions. As of the date hereof, the Partners have
contributed various properties to the Partnership as their respective initial
Capital Contributions. The initial Partnership Interests and Partnership
Percentages shall be proportional to the Fair Market Values of the Partners'
respective Capital Contributions, without regard to whether such Capital
Contributions are for an interest as a General Partner, Limited Partner, or
both. The properties initially contributed to the Partnership by the respective
Partners, the Fair Market Values of such
11
Capital Contributions, as mutually agreed upon by the Partners, and the
specification of the extent to which such Capital Contributions are for an
interest as a General Partner or a Limited Partner are set forth in Schedule A
attached hereto. The Partners acknowledge that they, their advisers, or both are
familiar with the properties contributed to the Partnership, have considerable
knowledge and experience regarding the valuation of those properties and similar
properties, and have in good faith determined the Fair Market Values of such
properties, as set forth in Schedule A.
4.2 Additional Contributions. In addition to the Capital Contributions
made by the Partners pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof, and subject to the
limitations on any requirement that a Partner make additional Capital
Contributions (as hereinafter provided in the second paragraph of this Section
4.2), the Partners may, from time to time, make such additional Capital
Contributions as may be necessary or desirable in the discretion of the Managing
Partner; provided, however, that any property contributed to the Partnership
under this Section 4.2 shall be transferred subject to any and all existing
liabilities encumbering such contributed property, and the Partnership shall
take and hold the contributed property subject to such existing liabilities but
shall not assume such liabilities unless Partners owning more than fifty percent
(50%) of the Partnership Interests consent in writing to any such assumption. In
the event the net values of the additional Capital Contributions shall be
disproportionate to the Partners' Partnership Percentages immediately before the
additional Capital Contributions, then the Partnership Percentages shall be
adjusted as provided in Section 1.48 to reflect the disproportionate additional
Capital Contributions.
Under no circumstances shall a Limited Partner be personally
liable for any of the debts or obligations of the Partnership by reason of such
Person's status as a Limited Partner. No Limited Partner shall be required, by
reason of such Person's status as a Limited Partner, to contribute any capital
to the Partnership except as provided in Section 4.1.
4.3 Capital Accounts.
(a) An individual Capital Account shall be established and
maintained for each Partner in accordance with the requirements of the Code and
any regulations thereunder, and shall be credited with the Capital
Contributions(s) of such Partner and that portion of Net Income allocable to
such Partner, and shall be debited with that portion of any Net Loss allocable
to such Partner and all distributions made by the Partnership to such Partner.
If the Partner is both a General Partner and a Limited Partner, subaccounts
shall be maintained to reflect the Person's interest as a General Partner and as
a Limited Partner.
(b) No interest shall be payable to any Partner on any
positive balance in such Partner's Capital Account.
(c) No Partner shall have the right to withdraw from his
Capital Account or to otherwise receive any Partnership funds or Partnership
Property except as provided by this Agreement. Each Partner expressly waives any
right to partition the Partnership Property which he or she may otherwise have,
as provided in Section 11.4.
12
(d) A Partner shall be required to eliminate in any fashion
approved in good faith by the Managing Partner any deficit balance which may
arise in that Partner's Capital Account, at the time the Partnership is
dissolved or at any other time, provided, however, that no Limited Partner shall
be required, by reason of such Person's status as a Limited Partner, to
contribute any capital to the Partnership except as provided in Section 4.1. If
a Limited Partner unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or
distribution described in (4), (5) or (6) of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the
regulations issued under Section 704(b) of the Code (or any successor thereto),
gross income of the Partnership or gain from a sale of assets shall be allocated
to such Limited Partner or Limited Partners in an amount sufficient to eliminate
any deficit balance in such Limited Partner's capital account caused by such
adjustment, allocation or distribution as quickly as possible to the extent such
deficit balance exceeds the amount such Limited Partner is deemed obligated to
restore to the Partnership pursuant to the Section 704(b) regulations. It is the
intent of the Partners that any allocation pursuant to this Section 4.3
constitutes a "qualified income offset" under Treasury regulation Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).
4.4 Allocation of Net Income and Net Loss. Net Income or Net Loss of
the Partnership shall be determined as of the end of each calendar year and as
of the end of any interim period extending through the day immediately preceding
any disproportionate Capital Contribution or distribution or succession or
assignment. If a calendar year includes an interim period, the determination of
Net Income or Net Loss for the period extending through the last day of the
calendar year shall include only that period of less than twelve (12) months
occurring from the day immediately following the last day of the latest interim
period during the calendar year and extending through the last day of the
calendar year. For all purposes, including income tax purposes, Net Income, if
any, of the Partnership for each calendar year or interim period shall be
allocated among the Partners in proportion to their Partnership Percentages for
the calendar year or interim period. In the event of a Net Loss for a particular
calendar year or interim period, then, for such calendar year or interim period,
the Net Loss for such calendar year or interim period shall be allocated among
the Partners in proportion to their respective Partnership Percentages for the
calendar year or interim period.
4.5 Distributions.
(a) The Partnership must distribute annually among the
Partners an amount equal to the greater of (i) Net Operating Cash Flow of the
Partnership, or (ii) an amount corresponding to the income tax liabilities of
the Partners resulting from the allocation of Net Income (as shall be determined
in good faith by the Managing Partner by assuming that all Partners are in the
highest marginal federal income tax bracket and by using the income tax rates
for the state of residence of the Partner with the highest state income tax
rates). The Partnership shall make such distributions from time to time during
each year as the Managing Partner determines, provided that the Partnership must
distribute quarterly at least fifteen days in advance of the dates on which
estimated tax payments are due at least an amount corresponding to the income
tax liabilities of the Partners resulting from the allocation of Net Income (as
determined as provided in the preceding sentence).
13
(b) All distributions shall be made in proportion to the
Partners' Partnership Percentages except (i) when the Managing Partner by
majority vote of its Board of Directors approves the disproportionate
distribution, or (ii) with respect to any payment of NACCO Class A Shares or
NACCO Class B Shares by the Partnership pursuant to Section 7.7(a). The Managing
Partner is encouraged to consider disproportionate distributions to defray the
income tax liabilities resulting from special allocations under Section 704(c)
of the Code, but such disproportionate distributions shall not be required.
Subject to Section 4.5(a), the Managing Partner is expressly authorized to make
monthly or other periodic draws with respect to one or more, but not necessarily
all, of the Partners, on the condition that compensating distributions,
determined with or without interest in the discretion of the Managing Partner,
shall be made to the other Partners on or before the end of March of the
following calendar year so that the total draws and compensating distributions
shall be proportionate. For all purposes of this Agreement, except as provided
in the immediately preceding sentence, a distribution among the Partners which
is not in proportion to Partnership Percentages shall be regarded as
disproportionate. In the event that a disproportionate distribution occurs, the
Managing Partner shall appropriately adjust the Capital Accounts of the Partners
to reflect such disproportionate distribution. This adjustment of Capital
Accounts, and thus Partnership Interests, shall be in addition to the adjustment
in Partnership Percentages.
4.6 No Right to Return of Capital. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, the Partners shall not have the right to demand the
return of all or any portion of their respective Capital Contributions or to
demand or receive property other than cash in return for their respective
Capital Contributions.
5. MANAGEMENT.
5.1 Management of Partnership Business. The Managing Partner shall be
responsible for managing and conducting the ordinary and usual business and
affairs of the Partnership, and by the vote of a majority of the Board of
Directors of the Managing Partner shall make all management decisions on behalf
of the Partnership, including, without limitation (except as expressly provided
elsewhere in this Agreement):

in a limited liability company with respect to which the Partnership owns more
than five percent (5%) of the total voting power;

(a) The Managing Partner by the approval of a majority of its
Board of Directors shall direct the voting of the NACCO Class A Stock and NACCO
Class B Stock held by the Partnership and may authorize the Partnership to enter
into a voting arrangement with respect to any or all of such NACCO Class A Stock
and NACCO Class B Stock.
(b) The Partnership will not Transfer any shares of NACCO
Class B Stock without the consent of a majority of the Board of Directors of the
Managing Partner and the consent of Partners owning more than 75% of all
Partnership Interests.
(c) The Partnership will not Transfer any shares of NACCO
Class A Stock, other than to acquire NACCO Class B Stock, without the consent of
a majority of the Board of Directors of the Managing Partner and the consent of
Partners owning more than 75% of all Partnership Interests.

designated as the initial Managing Partner. If XXXXXX MANAGEMENT, INC. or any
successor ceases to serve as a Managing Partner, such General Partner(s) or
officer(s) of a General Partner selected by Partners owning not less than ninety

General Partner(s) or officer(s) of a General Partner who are thus selected as

ceases to serve.
If an individual Managing Partner or Co-Managing Partner is
determined by his or her principal attending physician to be incapable of
handling his or her duties as Managing Partner or Co-Managing Partner, such
incapacitated Managing Partner or Co-Managing Partner shall be deemed to have
resigned for the period of his or her incapacity, but such individual shall be
restored as Managing Partner or Co-Managing Partner in lieu of his or her
successor (or that Person's successor), if any, in the event his or her
principal attending physician later determines that the incapacitated Managing
Partner or Co-Managing Partner has recovered sufficiently to resume the duties
of Managing Partner or Co-Managing Partner. Any determination by the
15
Managing Partner's or Co-Managing Partner's principal attending physician shall
be conclusive, and the principal attending physician shall be held harmless by
the Partnership from any liability resulting from any good faith determination
of incapacity or recovery. Any determination hereunder by the principal
attending physician shall be in recordable form.
Any Managing Partner or Co-Managing Partner may be removed and
replaced only by and with the consent of Partners owning not less than ninety
percent (90%) of all Partnership Interests.
So long as more than one Managing Partner shall be serving,
the vote of a majority of those then serving shall control. The Managing Partner
or any Co-Managing Partner may sign on behalf of the Partnership, and any third
party may conclusively rely upon the signature of the Managing Partner or any
Co-Managing Partner as being binding upon the Partnership. Any person dealing in
good faith with the Partnership may conclusively rely upon any writing signed by
one or more Persons certifying (a) that such Person or Persons are the Managing

that such Person or Persons are acting in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. The Co-Managing Partner working regularly in the Partnership's

provide the Partners with such notices as are required under the Code. The
Partnership's tax matters partner shall also keep each Partner informed of any

liability or expense suffered by the Partnership or its Partners on account of
any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Person on behalf of, or at the
request of, the Partnership, or in connection with the organization of the
Partnership, provided such Person discharges such Person's duties in good faith,
exercising the same degree of care and skill that a prudent person would have
exercised under the circumstances in the conduct of such prudent person's own
affairs, and in a manner such Person reasonably believes to be in the best
interest of the Partnership. A Person's liability hereunder shall be limited
only for those actions taken or omitted to be taken by such Person in connection
with the organization of the Partnership or the management of the business and
affairs of the Partnership. The provisions of this Section are not intended to
limit the liability of any person in any other connection, including, but not
limited to, any obligations of such Person undertaken in this Partnership
Agreement or any contract with the Partnership.

Person who has been or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative, investigative or appellate (regardless of whether such
action, suit or proceeding is by or in the right of the Partnership or by third
parties), by reason of the fact that such Person is or was a Partner, direct or
indirect shareholder of a Partner, director, officer, or employee of the
Partnership or a Partner, or organizer of the Partnership, against all
liabilities and expenses, including, without limitation, judgments, amounts paid
in settlement, attorneys' fees, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, fines and other
expenses, actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding (including, without limitation, the
investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such action, suit or
proceeding); provided, however, that the Partnership shall not be required to
indemnify or advance expenses to any person from or on account of such Person's
conduct that is finally adjudged to have been knowingly fraudulent, deliberately
dishonest, grossly negligent, or willful misconduct; provided, further, that the
Partnership shall not be required to indemnify or advance expenses to any Person
in connection with an action, suit or proceeding initiated by such Person unless
the initiation of such action, suit or proceeding was authorized in advance by
the Partnership; and provided, finally, that a Person shall be indemnified
hereunder only for those actions taken or omitted to be taken by such Person in
connection with the discharge of such Person's obligations for the organization
of the Partnership or the management of the business and affairs of the
Partnership and that the provisions of this Section 5.7 are not intended to
extend indemnification to any Partner or other Person for any obligations of
such Partner or other Person undertaken in this Partnership Agreement. The
termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction or under a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of
itself, create a presumption that such
17
Person's conduct was finally adjudged to have been knowingly fraudulent,
deliberately dishonest, grossly negligent, or willful misconduct.

6.1 Partnership Books. The Managing Partner shall maintain full and
complete books and records for the Partnership at its principal office, and each

Interest was offered and is being sold in reliance upon the representation,

investment for such Partner's own account or in his or its fiduciary capacity
for a fiduciary account, as appropriate, and not with a view to, or for resale
in connection with, the distribution of such Partnership Interest or any
interest therein. Each Partner also acknowledges that such Partner's Partnership
Interest has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or any state
securities laws. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, but
subject to express written waiver by the Managing Partner in the exercise of its
reasonable judgment, no portion of or interest in any Partnership Interest may
be offered for sale or be the subject of a Transfer without the registration of
the Partnership Interest under the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws, unless the Partnership shall have received such assurances
satisfactory to the Managing Partner that such Transfer does not violate the
Securities Act, any state securities laws or any other law applicable to the
Partnership, including, without limitation, such legal opinions which it in its
good faith and reasonable discretion deems appropriate in light of the facts and
circumstances relating to such proposed Transfer, together with such
representations, warranties and indemnifications from the transferor and the
transferee as the Managing Partner in its good faith and reasonable discretion
deems appropriate to confirm the accuracy of the facts and circumstances that
are the basis for any such opinion or other assurances and to protect the
Partnership and the other Partners from any liability resulting from any such
Transfer. Such opinions, representations, warranties and indemnities may
include, without limitation, assurance that the transaction is exempt from any
registration or qualification provisions arising under applicable Federal and
state securities laws and would not require the registration or qualification of
the Partnership Interest under any such laws.
7.2 Restriction on Transfers. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, no Partner shall, either during the Partner's lifetime or upon the
Partner's death, Transfer any of the Partnership Interests now owned or
hereafter acquired by such Partner. Moreover, no Partner shall Transfer or
attempt to Transfer any Partnership Interest if such Transfer or attempted
Transfer is contrary to the provisions of the NACCO Restated Certificate or the
NACCO Stockholders' Agreement. In the event of any purported or attempted
Transfer of Partnership Interests that does not comply with this Agreement, the
purported transferee or successor by
18
operation of law shall not be deemed to be a Partner of the Partnership for any
purpose and shall not be entitled to any of the rights of a Partner of the
Partnership, including, without limitation, the right to vote the Partnership
Interests or to receive a certificate for Partnership Interests or any
distributions of any kind on or with respect to Partnership Interests. Any
purported or attempted transfer of Partnership Interests made other than in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be void ab initio and the
last holder of record who acquired such Partnership Interests in a manner not
contrary to the provisions of this Agreement shall be recognized as the holder
of such Partnership Interests for all purposes and the Partnership Interests
shall continue to be treated as Partnership Interests for all purposes under
this Agreement, shall be deemed owned by such recognized holder for purposes of
the operation of this Agreement and shall continue to be subject to the terms of
this Agreement.
7.3 Unrestricted Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, each Partner or Authorized Transferee of such Partner shall be
entitled to Transfer all or any portion of his, her or its Partnership Interests

withheld for any reason or for no reason at all, without need to comply with the
other provisions of this Agreement.

Interests and Option Interests shall be allocated among the Partnership and the
Family Holders pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.6. At the Closing, the
Partnership and such Family Holders, as the case may be, shall be obligated to
purchase the Offered Interests or Option Interests so allocated pursuant to the
terms and provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, no Partner shall be entitled to receive, or be obligated to
purchase, more Partnership Interests than such Partner has elected to purchase
pursuant to Section 7.4(d) or 7.5(c), as the case may be. All Offered Interests
or Option Interests shall be allocated as follows:
(a) Allocation to Original Holders of Offered Interests. Any
Offered Interests or Options Interests shall first be allocated to members of
the Family Group (the "Original Holders") (i) in which the Selling Partner is
the Initial Limited Partner or a Family Member, or (ii) if the Selling Partner
is an Outside Partner, from which the Selling Partner, or his, her or its
predecessors in interest, acquired such Offered Interests or Option Interests,
to the extent such Original Holders have elected to purchase the Offered
Interests or Option Interests. Such Partnership Interests shall be allocated in
accordance with Section 7.6(d).
(b) Allocation among Family Groups. Any Offered Interests or
Option Interests not allocated pursuant to Section 7.6(a) (the "Remaining
Interests") shall be allocated among the Family Groups (other than the Original
Holders) which have Partners electing to purchase Offered Interests or Option
Interests as follows:
(i) If a Family Group has collectively elected
to purchase a number of Offered Interests or
Option Interests which is less than or equal
to its Proportionate Part of the Remaining
Interests, then such Family Group shall be
allocated the number of Partnership
Interests that its members have elected to
purchase.
(ii) If a Family Group has collectively elected
to purchase a number of Offered Interests or
Option Interests which is greater than its
Proportionate Part of the Remaining
Interests, then such Family Group shall, in
the first instance, be allocated its
Proportionate Part of the Remaining
Interests.
(iii) If additional Remaining Interests remain to
be allocated after the application of
subsections (i) and (ii) above (the
"Outstanding Remaining Interests"), then
each Family Group which has collectively
elected to purchase a number of Offered
Interests or Option Interests which exceeds
its Proportionate Part shall be allocated an
additional number of the Remaining Interests
equal to the lesser of:
(A) The number of Offered Interests or
Option Interests which such Family
Group elected to purchase but which
were not allocated to it by reason
of subsection (ii) above, or
21
(B) That portion of the Outstanding
Remaining Interests represented by a
fraction the numerator of which is
the number of Partnership Interests
held by such Family Group (prior to
such allocation), and the
denominator of which is the number
of Partnership Interests held by all
Family Groups which have elected to
purchase a number of Offered
Interests or Option Interests in
excess of the number of those
Offered Interests or Option
Interests previously allocated to
them under this Section 7.6.
(iv) Any Partnership Interests remaining to be
allocated after the application of
subsections (i), (ii) and (iii) above, shall
be allocated in accordance with the
procedures described in subsection (iii)
above until either (A) all of the Offered
Interests or Option Interests which Family
Holders, as the case may be, have elected to
purchase have been allocated, or (B) there
remains only one Family Group which has not
been allocated all of the Partnership
Interests it has elected to purchase, in
which event all of the then unallocated
Offered Interests or Option Interests shall
be allocated to such Family Group up to the
amount that such Family Group elected to
purchase.
(c) Allocation to the Partnership. The Partnership may, but
shall not be obligated to, purchase any Option Interests not allocated to a
Family Group.
(d) Allocation of Partnership Interests among Family Group
Members. Offered Interests or Option Interests allocated to a Family Group
pursuant to Sections 7.6(a) or 7.6(b) shall be allocated among the Family
Holders of such Family Group, as follows:
(i) First, to the Initial Limited Partner of
such Family Group in an amount equal to the
number of Offered Interests or Option
Interests such Initial Limited Partner
elects to Purchase; and
(ii) Second, to each Partner of such Family
Group, other than the Initial Limited
Partner, electing to purchase Offered
Interests or Option Interests in an amount
determined by multiplying (A) the number of
Partnership Interests allocated to such
Family Group and not purchased by the
Initial Limited Partner, by (B) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of
Partnership Interests subscribed for by such
Partner, and the denominator of which is the
aggregate number of Partnership Interests
subscribed for by all Partners of a Family
Group, other than the Initial Limited
Partner.
7.7 Terms of Sale. The Purchase Price for all Partnership Interests
purchased pursuant to Section 7.4 or Section 7.5 of this Agreement shall be paid
at the Closing, as follows:
22
(a) If the purchaser is the Partnership, the Partnership, at
its election, may pay its portion of the Purchase Price in NACCO Class B Shares,
NACCO Class A Shares, immediately available United States Funds, or any
combination of such consideration as follows:
(i) to the extent that the Partnership elects to
pay the Purchase Price be paid in NACCO
Class B Shares, the Partnership shall pay to
the Selling Partner, such number of NACCO
Class B Shares as shall be equal to the
quotient of (A) the portion of the Purchase
Price payable in NACCO Class B Shares,
divided by (B) the Applicable NACCO Class A
Closing Price Average; and
(ii) to the extent that the Partnership elects to
pay the Purchase Price be paid in NACCO
Class A Shares, the Partnership shall pay to
the Selling Partner such number of NACCO
Class A Shares as shall be equal to the
quotient of (A) the portion of the Purchase
Price payable in NACCO Class A Shares,
divided by (B) the Applicable NACCO Class A
Closing Price Average (If necessary the
Partnership may convert NACCO Class B Shares
to NACCO Class A Shares and to pay such
Purchase Price); and
(iii) immediately available United States Funds
equal to that portion of the Purchase Price
not payable in NACCO Class B Shares or NACCO
Class A Shares.
(b) If the purchaser is a Partner, such Partner may pay its
portion of the Purchase Price in NACCO Class A Shares, immediately available
United States Funds, or any combination of such consideration as follows:
(i) to the extent that the Partner elects to pay
the Purchase Price in NACCO Class A Shares,
such Partner shall pay to the Selling
Partner such number of NACCO Class A Shares
as shall be equal to the quotient of (A) the
portion of the Purchase Price payable in
NACCO Class A Shares, divided by (B) the
Applicable NACCO Class A Closing Price
Average; and
(ii) immediately available United States Funds
equal to that portion of the Purchase Price
not payable in NACCO Class A Shares.
7.8 Closing
(a) The Closing of the purchase and sale of any Partnership
Interests pursuant to this Agreement shall occur at the time, date and place
specified by the Partnership in its written notice pursuant to Sections
7.4(e)(iii) or 7.5(d)(iii), as the case may be.
23
(b) At Closing, transfer instruments shall be respectively
delivered by the seller to each purchaser against payment of such purchaser's
portion of the Purchase Price. Such delivery shall constitute warranties by the
seller thereof that such seller has full authority to transfer the Partnership
Interests to such purchaser and that such purchaser is acquiring the Partnership
Interests free and clear of all liens, encumbrances or other outstanding
interests of any nature, other than those created pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement.
7.9 Legal Requirements. The purchase and sale of any Partnership
Interests pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to compliance with all
applicable state and federal securities laws, and each Partner agrees without
additional consideration to do all necessary things reasonably requested by the
Partnership in connection therewith, the reasonable expenses of such to be paid
by the selling Partner(s).
8. CODE SECTION 754 ELECTION. Upon the written request of Partners owning more
than fifty percent (50%) of all Partnership Interests, the Partnership shall
file an election under Code Section 754 to adjust the tax basis of the
Partnership Property, with respect to any distribution of Partnership Property
to a Partner or a transfer of a Partnership Interest, in accordance with Code
Sections 734(b) and 743(b). The Partners acknowledge that once a Code Section
754 election shall be validly filed by the Partnership, it shall remain in
effect indefinitely thereafter unless the Internal Revenue Service approves the
revocation of such election.
9. DISSOLUTION.
9.1 Dissolution and Termination. The Partnership shall continue for the
term described in Section 2.4 hereof, unless earlier dissolved (a) with the
consent of the Managing Partner and Partners owning more than ninety percent
(90%) of all Partnership Interests, or (b) upon the bankruptcy of a General
Partner unless the continuation of the Partnership is agreed to in writing by
all other General Partners, if any, or by Partners holding more than fifty
percent (50%) of all Capital Accounts and all Partnership Percentages (exclusive
of the Capital Accounts and Partnership Percentages of the bankrupt General
Partner), or (c) with the consent of the Managing Partner, upon the Transfer of
substantially all of the shares of NACCO Class A Shares and NACCO Class B Shares
held by the Partnership. In the event that the Partnership is dissolved, the
assets of the Partnership shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with
obtaining the Fair Market Value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom, together
with any assets distributed in kind, shall be distributed first to creditors to
satisfy all debts and liabilities of the Partnership other than loans or
advances made by the Partners to the Partnership, then to the establishment of
reserves deemed reasonably necessary to satisfy contingent or unforeseen
liabilities or obligations of the Partnership, then to the repayment of any
loans or advances made by the Partners to the Partnership, with the balance, if
any, to be distributed in accordance with the balances in each Partner's Capital
Account at that time. Solely for the purposes of determining the balances of the
Partners' Capital Accounts at that time, any Partnership Property that is
distributed in kind shall be treated as though such Partnership Property were
sold for its Fair Market Value as of the date of distribution, as determined by
an independent appraiser. Upon completion of the foregoing, the Partnership
shall be terminated.
24
9.2 Continuation of Business. Except as provided in Section 9.1,
neither the disposition of any Partnership Interest pursuant to Section 7 hereof
nor the death, insanity, incapacity, or bankruptcy of a Partner shall cause the
dissolution or termination of the Partnership or have any effect upon the
continuance of the Partnership business. No Partner shall have a right to
withdraw from the Partnership or to abandon any Partnership Interest except as
expressly provided herein.
10. POWER OF ATTORNEY.
10.1 Grant of Power. Each Partner by his, her or its signature below
irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Managing Partner, and each of
them, his, her or its true and lawful attorney in his, her or its name, place
and stead in any capacities, with the power from time to time to substitute or
resubstitute one or more others as such attorney, and to make, execute, swear
to, acknowledge, verify, deliver, file, record and publish any and all
documents, certificates or other instruments which may be required or deemed
desirable by the Managing Partner to (a) effectuate the provisions of any part
of this Agreement or any amendments to this Agreement, (b) enable the
Partnership to conduct its business, (c) comply with any applicable law in
connection with the Partnership's conduct of its business, (d) retain
professional services, including accounting and legal counsel, for the
Partnership (including, without limitation, the waiver on behalf of the
Partnership and each Partner of any conflict arising from such professional's
representation of another client on matters in which the interests of the
Partnership, any Partner or any affiliate of the Partnership or any Partner may
be adverse to such other client), or (e) to execute any and all statements under
Section 13 or Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of
beneficial ownership of NACCO Class A Shares and/or NACCO Class B Shares,
subject to the NACCO Stockholders' Agreement, as amended from time to time,
including all statements on Schedule 13D and all amendments thereto, all joint
filing agreements pursuant to Rule 13d-l(f)(iii) under such Act in connection
with such statements, all initial statements of beneficial ownership on Form 3
and any and all other documents to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, and to file the same, with all exhibits thereto, and all other
documents in connection therewith, with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Each Partner grants to said attorney or attorneys-in-fact, and each of them,
full power and authority to do so and to perform each and every act and thing
requisite and necessary to be done in and about the premises, as fully to all
intents and purposes as the undersigned might or could do in person, hereby
ratifying and confirming all that said attorney or attorneys-in-fact or any of
them or their substitutes or resubstitutes, may lawfully do or cause to be done
by virtue of this Section 10.
10.2 Irrevocable Nature. It is expressly intended by each Partner that
the foregoing power of attorney is a special power of attorney coupled with an
interest in favor of each of those appointed as attorney-in-fact on his, her or
its behalf, and as such shall be irrevocable and shall survive such Partner's
death, incompetence (including an adjudication of insanity) or, in the case of a
Limited Partner which is not a natural person, its merger, dissolution or other
termination of existence.
25
10.3 Further Assurances - Power of Attorney. If applicable law requires
additional or substituted language in order to validate the power of attorney
intended to be granted by this Section 10, each Shareholder agrees to execute
and deliver such additional instruments and to take such further acts as may be
necessary to validate such power of attorney.
10.4 Transfer of Partnership Interests. The foregoing power of attorney
shall survive the delivery of an instrument of transfer by any Partner of the
whole or any portion of or interest in his, her or its Partnership Interest,
except that where a transferee of such Partnership Interest has been approved as
a successor Partner and the transferee shall thereupon cease being a Partner
(all in accordance with this Agreement), then the power of attorney of the
transferor Partner shall survive the delivery of such instrument of transfer for
the sole purpose of enabling the attorneys-in-fact for such transferor Partner
(or any of them) to execute, swear to, acknowledge and file any and all
instruments necessary to effectuate such transfer and succession.
11. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
11.1 Obtaining Partner Approvals of Partnership Actions. The requisite
approval of the General Partners or Partners, whichever is appropriate, may take
the form of the approval of an outline of the general terms of the transaction,
and the negotiation of detailed terms may be delegated to the Managing Partner
or to any one or more specified Partners, or the approval may be in the form of
a blanket delegation of authority to the Managing Partner or to any one or more
specified Partners to act on behalf of the Partnership in regard to a particular
transaction that is being considered.
11.2 Arbitration. Any dispute arising in connection with this Agreement
shall be an Arbitrable Dispute and shall be finally settled by arbitration under
the then applicable Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration
Association, by one or more arbitrators agreed upon by the parties or, in the
absence of such an agreement, appointed in accordance with such Rules. The
arbitration proceedings shall be held in Cleveland, Ohio. Judgment upon the
award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction and application
may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of such award and an order of
enforcement as the case may be. The Partners hereby agree that the rendering of
an award by the arbitrator or arbitrators shall be a condition precedent to the
initiation of any legal proceedings with respect to any Arbitrable Dispute.
11.3 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given when the
same are (a) delivered in person, or (b) delivered by express or overnight mail
or by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Partners at the
addresses set forth in Schedule B attached hereto, and to the Partnership at the
address of its principal office, or at such other address as the Partners may
from time to time determine. A delivery receipt shall be conclusive evidence
that the respective mailing has in fact been delivered and the date thereof. Any
Partner may change his or her address for notices by designating a new address
by notice given to the other Partners and the Partnership in accordance with
this Section 11.3.

among the parties hereto and supersedes and cancels any prior agreements,
representations, warranties, or communications, whether oral or written, among
any parties hereto regarding the transactions contemplated hereby and the
subject matter hereof. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be
changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an agreement in
writing signed by the party against whom or which the enforcement of such
change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. Notwithstanding the
immediately preceding sentence, the Managing Partner may, without the consent of
any other party, amend Schedule A and Schedule B as necessary to reflect the
addition of any new Partners, any additional capital contributions by existing
Partners, or any gifts or other transfers of Interests permitted under the terms
of this Agreement.
11.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.
11.9 Counterparts. This Agreement and any documents executed in
connection herewith may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which

the same instrument.
11.10 Pronouns. All pronouns used herein shall be deemed to refer to
the masculine, feminine or neuter gender as the context requires.
11.11 Remedies Cumulative. All rights and remedies granted to the
Partnership or to any Partner hereunder shall be cumulative with, and not in
derogation of or exclusive of, any rights and remedies which may be available by
operation of law or otherwise.
11.12 Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereto agrees to execute
and deliver such instruments, and to take such other actions, as shall be
