C. To induce the Holders to purchase or receive pursuant to the Purchase

is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
OPERATIVE PROVISIONS

WARRANT SHARES. The Holders shall not be bound by any of the provisions of the
Stockholders Agreement except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The
Holders shall have the benefit of and shall be bound by the following provisions
of the Stockholders Agreement with respect to any
3
Warrant Shares which they may hold or hereafter acquire upon exercise of
Warrants. The Warrants shall be freely transferable subject to the restrictions
set forth in the Warrant Agreement, the Warrant and in the Purchase Agreement
and shall not be subject to any of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement
or the Stockholders Agreement.
(a) CHANGES IN CAPITAL. Each Holder of Warrant Shares shall have
the benefit of the provisions set forth in Article II of the Stockholders
Agreement (Changes In Capital) with respect to the Warrant Shares, including the
right to purchase New Equity Securities (as defined therein) on the terms set
forth therein. For purposes of all calculations pursuant to said Article II, all
Warrants shall be deemed to have been exercised for Warrant Shares and each
Holder which holds Warrants shall be deemed to hold the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of such Holder's Warrants and any other shares of Common
Stock held by such Holder.
(b) CERTAIN RIGHTS AND RESTRICTIONS. (i) Holders of Warrant Shares
to have Tag Along Rights. Each Holder of Warrant Shares shall have the benefits
and be subject to the terms of Section 3.7 of the Stockholders Agreement which
shall apply to the Warrant Shares as though each Holder of Warrant Shares were a
party to the Stockholders Agreement.
(ii) Restrictions on Disposition. Any Holder of Warrant
Shares which transfers any or all of such Warrant Shares to any person or entity
not already a party to this Agreement shall, as a written condition of such
transfer, require the transferee to become a party to this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement. No such transfer shall be valid unless such
transferee has in writing agreed to be bound by all of the provisions of (A)
this Agreement in an Accession Agreement substantially in the form set forth as
Exhibit A hereto and (B) the Registration Rights Agreement in the form of an
Accession Agreement substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit B hereto. The
Company shall execute such Accession Agreement on its own behalf and on behalf
of the other parties hereto in the event of any such transfer, and each party
hereto hereby irrevocably consents to such execution on its behalf.
(iii) Restrictions on Merger and Sale of Assets and Stock.
Until the earlier of an initial public offering of the Company's Common Stock or
October 30, 2002, (i) the Company shall not consolidate or merge with or into
(whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign,
transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or a majority of its
properties or assets in one or more related transactions, to another
corporation, person or entity except (x) in accordance with the terms of the
Indenture and (y) upon the affirmative written vote or consent of the holders of
at least 85% of the outstanding Common Stock as of the Record Date; and (ii)
neither the Company nor any of the Holders, in one transaction or in a series of
related transactions, will sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of more than 50%
of the Company's outstanding Common Stock except upon the affirmative written
vote or consent of at least 85% of the holders of the outstanding Common Stock
as of the Record Date. The Company and any such Holder or Holders shall give at
least 30 days' prior written notice to all Holders prior to the Record Date.
For purposes of the foregoing, "Record Date" shall mean the
date fixed for a stockholder vote pursuant to the terms of the Company's
certificate of incorporation and by-laws.

(c) NO TRANSFERS TO PERSONS ENGAGED IN COMPETITION. Each Holder
agrees that it shall not transfer any Warrant Shares to any person or entity
which, to the knowledge of such Holder, is engaged in Competition with the
Company. For this purpose, "Competition" shall mean engaging in any business in
the states of West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia or Kentucky
involving the purchase for resale, sale, operation or maintenance for resale of
coal, coal reserves, coal inventories, coal mines, coal mining operations, coal
processing operations, processing or disposing of ash produced from the
consumption of coal; the conduct or performance of coal mining, coal loading,
coal processing or contract coal mining or coal processing; the employment of
independent contractors in connection with any of the foregoing; or the conduct
of coal trading; or the holding of any equity investment constituting a
controlling equity interest in any entity or business which at the time such
transfer or Warrant Shares is proposed to be made is engaged in Competition. If
a person or entity engaged in Competition acquires control of any Holder of
Warrant Shares that holds in excess of 10% of the Common Stock at the time
outstanding, the Company shall have the right to repurchase such Holder's
Warrant Shares at Fair Market Value (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement)
on the terms and subject to the conditions of Section 4.2 of the Stockholders
Agreement as in effect on the date hereof.
(d) REGISTRATION RIGHTS. (i) Each Holder shall have the
registration rights with respect to the Warrant Shares set forth in the Common
Stock Registration Rights Agreement attached as Exhibit B to the Purchase
Agreement. (ii) Each Existing Stockholder agrees that Section 3(b) of the
Registration Rights Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows:
"(b) Priority in Incidental Registrations. If a
registration pursuant to this Section 3 involves an underwritten offering and
the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion,
the number of securities which the Company, the Holders and any other persons
intend to include in such registration exceeds the number which would have an
adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such securities
can be sold, the Company will include in such registration (i) first, all the
securities the Company proposes to sell for its own account, and (ii) second,
the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such
registration by the Holders, which number, in the opinion of such underwriters,
can be sold without having the adverse effect referred to above, such amount to
be allocated pro rata among all such requesting Holders and by the holders of
Registrable Securities ("Purchaser Registrable Securities") as defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement dated October 26, 1999 among the Company and the
Purchasers (the "Purchasers") named therein on the basis of the relative number
of shares of Registrable Securities and other securities each Holder and
Purchaser Registrable Securities each Purchaser has requested to be included in
such registration, and (iii) third, the number of Registrable Securities
requested to be included in such registration by persons other than Holders and
Purchasers, which number, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold
without having the adverse effect referred to above, such amount to be allocated
pro rata among all such requesting other persons on the basis of the relative
number of shares of Registrable Securities and other securities each such other
person has requested to be included in such registration."

Article II of the Stockholders Agreement.
ARTICLE II

right, power or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement
