ARTICLE III

OPERATIONS IN THE PENNSYLVANIA MINE AREA

3.1 Operations in the Coal Area. With respect to the land in the Pennsylvania Mine Area that is, with respect to any calendar year, (i) currently being mined by Coal Party or (ii) identified in good faith by Coal Party as land to be mined during the following six (6) calendar years of the then-current Life of Mine Plan (such area, the “Coal Area”):

(a) If Coal Party determines, in its sole discretion, that venting of Coal Gas is necessary for mine safety considerations, Coal Party shall have the right to (i) drill, vent, and/or flare holes to vent such Coal Gas; (ii) install any necessary equipment on the surface or

subsurface, including pipelines and compressors, to remove such Coal Gas, and/or (iii) cause Gas Party to vent, flare, or Capture for processing and sale such Coal Gas from any existing Gas Party Well that is then Capturing Coal Gas from the Coal Gas seam or gob area in the mine at issue. Gas Party shall have the exclusive right to Capture any and all Coal Gas; provided, however, that in the event that Gas Party determines it shall not Capture sealed gob gas, then Coal Party may Capture such sealed gob gas at its discretion and sole risk and expense.

(b) Coal Party shall have the absolute right to Stimulate any coal seam to degas the Pennsylvania Mine Area; provided, however, that Gas Party may elect to Stimulate any coal seam, at its sole cost and expense, upon prior written notice to Coal Party. In the event Gas Party so elects, Gas Party shall employ only standard Stimulation techniques consistent with prudent industry practices for Stimulating coal seams and shall keep Coal Party reasonably informed of any such Stimulation activities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Gas Party may employ experimental non-standard Stimulation techniques with respect to any coal seam only with the prior written consent of Coal Party, which consent may be withheld in Coal Party’s sole discretion.

(c) Gas Party shall have the right to locate and drill ▇▇▇▇▇, and construct midstream pipelines and facilities, attributable to the Gas Interests in the Coal Area, subject to Coal Party’s plugging, relocation, and shut-in rights pursuant to Section 3.3; provided, however, that Gas Party shall request the prior written consent of Coal Party with respect to the design and location of any Well prior to the drilling of any such Well, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Upon receiving a request from Gas Party to drill a Well, Coal Party may (i) consent to such Well and such proposed location; (ii) consent to such Well but not consent to such proposed location; or (iii) not consent to such Well and such proposed location. In the case of (i), such Well shall be a “Protected Well.” In the case of (ii) or (iii), the Parties shall meet to attempt a mutually agreeable solution, and if the Parties are unable to agree, Gas Party may nevertheless drill such Well without obtaining Coal Party’s consent, and such Well shall be a “Non-Protected Well.”

(d) As of the Execution Date, the ▇▇▇▇▇ drilled by Gas Party and the proposed ▇▇▇▇▇ that have been permitted by Gas Party that are set forth on Exhibit E shall be deemed Non-Protected ▇▇▇▇▇.

3.2 Operations in the Non-Coal Area. With respect to the land in the Pennsylvania Mine Area other than the Coal Area (the “Non-Coal Area”):

(a) Gas Party shall have the right to locate and drill ▇▇▇▇▇, and construct midstream pipelines and facilities, attributable to the Gas Interests in the Non-Coal Area, subject to Coal Party’s plugging, relocation, and shut-in rights pursuant to Section 3.3.

(b) Any Well drilled by Gas Party on a location that was in the Non-Coal Area at the time such Well was permitted shall be deemed a Protected Well. As of the Execution Date, the existing ▇▇▇▇▇ and proposed ▇▇▇▇▇ that have been permitted that are set forth on Exhibit F shall be deemed Protected ▇▇▇▇▇.

(c) Gas Party and Coal Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other with respect to the location of Gas Party ▇▇▇▇▇ and operations in the Non-Coal Area; provided, however, that if the Parties do not agree on the location of a Well in the Non-Coal Area, Gas Party shall have the right to determine the location of any such Well.

3.3 Plugging, Relocation, and Shut-In Rights and Expenses.

(a) Protected ▇▇▇▇▇: Coal Party may require upon reasonable advance notice, but in no event upon less than twelve (12) months’ advance notice, that any Protected Well be (a) plugged and abandoned consistent with mine-through Laws and relocated, in which event Coal Party shall reimburse Gas Party for 100% of the costs associated with the plugging and abandoning of such Protected Well and compensate Gas Party for then-current fair market value, as determined by Schedule 3.3(a), of such Protected Well, taking into account the Gas Reserves (including proved developed and proved undeveloped) lost due to the relocation; provided, however, that at Coal Party’s request, Gas Party shall promptly transfer such Well to Coal Party or its designee for such plugging and abandoning consistent with mine-through Laws, and the fair market value of such Protected Well, taking into account the Gas Reserves and the underlying leases if applicable, shall be determined pursuant to the procedures set forth on Schedule 3.3(a); or (b) shut-in (including temporarily plugging) for a period of time, in which event Coal Party shall reimburse Gas Party for any damages reasonably incurred by Gas Party in connection with such shut-in, including any losses (including interest on such amounts) resulting from the delay in Gas Party receiving net revenues from production from such Protected Well caused by such shut-in.

(b) Non-Protected ▇▇▇▇▇: In the event Coal Party reasonably anticipates needing to mine through, or shut in (including temporarily plugging) to allow mine-by of, a Non-Protected Well, Coal Party may require upon reasonable advance notice, but in no event upon less than twelve (12) months’ advance notice, that any Non-Protected Well be (a) plugged and abandoned consistent with mine-through Laws and relocated, in which event Gas Party shall bear 100% of the costs associated with plugging and abandoning such Non-Protected Well and 100% of the loss of value of such Well; provided, however, at Coal Party’s request, Gas Party shall promptly transfer such Well to Coal Party or its designee for such plugging and abandoning consistent with mine-through Laws, and Gas Party shall reimburse Coal Party for all costs associated with such plugging and abandoning; or (b) shut in, and Gas Party shall bear 100% of any damages incurred by Gas Party in connection with shutting in, including temporarily plugging, such Non-Protected Well, and if such Well can be reopened, the reopening of such Well. Coal Party shall not be liable to any other Party for any lost Gas Reserves or lost leases in the exercise of its rights under this Section 3.3(b).

(c) Non-Well Operations: Coal Party may require at any time that Gas Party relocate (within a reasonable time, but in no event later than twenty-four (24) months following receipt of such notice) an easement, pipeline, facility, or other related equipment (other than a Well and associated Well equipment) if any such easement, pipeline, facility, or other related equipment is reasonably expected by Coal Party to interfere with Coal Party’s present or planned operations or uses in, on, or under any of the Coal Interests. Except with respect to the relocation of any Well (discussed above), all costs and expenses of Gas Party associated with a

first relocation shall be borne 100% by Gas Party if at the time of construction it was within a Coal Area; otherwise, such costs and expenses shall be borne 50% by Gas Party and 50% by Coal Party. Coal Party may only request a second or further relocation with respect to any easement, pipeline, facility, or other related equipment; provided, however, that the costs of any such second or further relocation are borne solely by Coal Party.

(d) Replacement ▇▇▇▇▇: Subject to Section 3.1 and Section 3.2, Gas Party shall have the right to drill replacement or recompletion Well(s) to Capture the remaining Gas Reserves on any lease(s) that are stranded as the result of a mine-through of a Well. Gas Party shall use reasonable efforts and work with Coal Party to locate the replacement Well or recompletion Well in a coal pillar or other location that will not jeopardize the health and safety of the Persons within any coal mine where operations are taking place. The replacement or recompletion Well will only be drilled after Coal Party’s written consent has been obtained, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned. If the replacement or recompletion Well successfully establishes production from the lease(s), and Gas Party has received compensation from Coal Party under this Agreement, Gas Party shall reimburse Coal Party for the value Gas Party received to the extent production has been restored and Gas Reserves captured by such successful replacement or recompletion.

3.4 Permits. Each Party is responsible for obtaining all permits, title reports, licenses, and bonds related to its operations in and around the Pennsylvania Mine Complex. Provided that such other Party has complied with its obligations under this Agreement, each Party shall support any other Party’s permitting and regulatory activities and agrees it will not object, protest, appeal, or interfere with any applications submitted by the other for permits, approvals, or authorizations required by any federal, state, or local regulatory authority and will timely execute or submit applicable waivers, consents, or other documents as requested by such other Party in accordance with the aforementioned. Applications covered include not only initial applications for a mine permit or Well permit but also amendments or revisions to existing applications, renewals, six month map filings, or similar submissions after an original application; provided, however, that such supporting Party shall not be required to incur any costs in connection therewith other than as set forth herein. Each Party agrees, as applicable, to comply in all material respects with all applicable Existing Permits/Agreements burdening the Coal Interests and Gas Interests and to maintain its roads and facilities to the extent that such Party’s failure to so comply or maintain would result in an adverse effect on any other Party.

3.5 Acquisitions in the Pennsylvania Mine Area.

(a) Gas Party’s Option to Purchase. Subject to and to the extent not prohibited by or covered under Existing Permits/Agreements, Coal Party grants to Gas Party the sole, exclusive, and irrevocable right and option (“Gas Party Option”) to purchase and acquire any Gas Interests to the extent such Gas Interest (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Coal Gas contained in any coal seam) is purchased, leased, or otherwise acquired by Coal Party after the Execution Date within the Pennsylvania Mine Area. Coal Party shall provide written notice to Gas Party not more than thirty (30) Business Days after Coal Party’s purchase, lease, or other acquisition of any Gas Interests within the Pennsylvania Mine Area (“Coal Notice”), and, at Gas Party’s written election delivered to Coal Party within thirty (30) Business Days after Gas

Party’s receipt of a Coal Notice, the Parties shall enter into an agreement for the purchase of such interests in a mutually agreeable form. The purchase price to be paid to Coal Party shall be determined by a good faith allocation of the consideration paid by Coal Party for each of the estates purchased, leased, or otherwise acquired, and the consideration allocated to such Gas Interests shall be the purchase price; provided, however, that if no consideration is paid, a good faith estimate of such consideration paid shall be utilized in the allocation; provided further, that to the extent such Gas Interests are not freely conveyable, assignable, or transferrable, Coal Party shall promptly offer to provide, the beneficial ownership of such Gas Interests to Gas Party, and Coal Party and Gas Party agree to attempt to negotiate in good faith a mutually acceptable means by which Gas Party will reimburse Coal Party for not more than Coal Party’s fair share of the costs associated with obtaining such Gas Interests.

(b) Future Coal Interests and Coal Party’s Option to Purchase. Subject to and to the extent not prohibited by or covered under Existing Permits/Agreements, Gas Party grants to Coal Party the sole, exclusive, and irrevocable right and option (“Coal Party Option”) to purchase and acquire any coal seam and/or associated mining rights purchased, leased, or otherwise controlled by Gas Party after the Execution Date within the Pennsylvania Mine Area. Gas Party shall provide written notice to Coal Party not more than thirty (30) Business Days after Gas Party’s purchase, lease, or other acquisition of any seam and/or mining rights within the Pennsylvania Mine Area (“Gas Notice”), and, at Coal Party’s written election delivered to Gas Party within thirty (30) Business Days after Coal Party’s receipt of a Gas Notice, the Parties shall enter into an agreement for the purchase of such coal seam and/or mining rights in a mutually agreeable form. The purchase price to be paid to Gas Party shall be determined by a good faith allocation of the consideration paid by Gas Party for each of the estates purchased, leased, or otherwise acquired, and the consideration allocated to such coal seams and/or mining rights shall be the purchase price; provided, however, that if no consideration is paid, a good faith estimate of such consideration paid shall be utilized in the allocation; provided further, that to the extent such coal seams and/or mining rights are not freely conveyable, assignable, or transferrable, Gas Party shall promptly offer to provide the beneficial ownership of such coal seam and/or mining rights to Coal Party, and Gas Party and Coal Party agree to attempt to negotiate in good faith a mutually acceptable means by which Coal Party will reimburse Gas Party for not more than Gas Party’s fair share of the costs associated with obtaining such coal seam and/or mining rights.

3.6 As-Built Drawings; Drilling Procedures. In the event any new surface facilities are constructed or surface real property improvements made by a Party, the constructing Party shall promptly provide any other Party with As-Built Construction Drawings showing the nature and location of such new construction or improvement as are available to the constructing Party. The procedures set forth in Schedule 3.6 will be followed when drilling ▇▇▇▇▇ in the Pennsylvania Mine Area.

SURFACE USE

5.1 Surface Use Rights. Each Party shall have the right, on a non-exclusive basis and, except as provided below, free of charge, to use and access any other Party’s surface rights to the extent reasonably necessary for such Parties’ operations (“Surface Use Rights”) within the Pennsylvania Mine Area or outside the Pennsylvania Mine Area, including, with respect to Gas Party, the right to transport Third Party Gas or the right to support operations of Gas Party, its partners, joint venturers, co-working interest owners, or any of its joint ventures. The Parties shall comply with reasonable requirements with respect to operations or activities that utilize Surface Use Rights. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Party may sell any Surface Use Rights held by such Party; provided, however, such Party shall provide the other Parties with written notice of such intention on or before forty-five (45) days prior to the date such sale is to be consummated (a “Surface Sale Notice”). Each Surface Sale Notice shall include a description of those portions of the Surface Use Rights that will be sold pursuant to such proposed sale. Within thirty (30) days of its receipt of a Surface Sale Notice, each Party shall have the right to deliver a Surface Easement Request to the Representative of the Party proposing such sale with respect to the Surface Use Right that is subject to such Surface Sale Notice. Following its receipt of a Surface Easement Request pursuant to this Section 5.1, the Party proposing such sale shall use its reasonable discretion (exercised in good faith) to determine (prior to the date such Surface Use Right is to be sold) if such Surface Easement Request (i) is sufficiently specific in nature and (ii) would not materially impair the value of the Surface Use Right which is subject to such proposed sale. Should such Party be satisfied that both clause (i) and clause (ii) of this Section 5.1 are satisfied by such requested easement, and subject to (A) any restrictions under an applicable Existing Permit/Agreement and (B) the other terms of this Agreement, then such Party shall prepare and deliver such easement to the requesting Party prior to the date such Surface Use Right is sold.

5.4 Other Surface Facilities. The Parties shall cooperate to reach a mutually agreeable arrangement regarding the use of all other surface facilities.

5.5 License Use Rights. The following non-exclusive, revocable licenses are granted, as set forth in Sections 5.5(a) and 5.5(b), below (collectively, such revocable licenses, the “License Use Rights”), to the extent such licenses are reasonably necessary in connection with Gas Party’s operations with respect to its Gas Rights within the Pennsylvania Mine Area or Gas Party’s operations with respect to its Gas Interests or Gas operations outside of the Pennsylvania Mine Area, or with respect to Section 5.5(b) to the extent such licenses are reasonably necessary in connection with Coal Party’s operations with respect to its Coal Rights within the Pennsylvania Mine Area, and the exercise of such License Use Rights will be subject to and limited by (i) the terms of this Agreement and all applicable Laws and (ii) the terms of all Existing Permits/Agreements.

(a) Disposal or Storage of Fluids. Subject to Article III herein and only to the extent such disposal or storage is permitted by applicable Laws, the terms of the instruments creating the Coal Interests, and the terms of all Existing Permits/Agreements, Coal Party grants to Gas Party a license for the purpose of disposing of (i) any fluid or liquid from any Well or System within the Pennsylvania Mine Area, or (ii) any fluid or liquid from any other Gas Well or System outside of the Pennsylvania Mine Area in which such Well or System Gas Party has an interest or control, in each case, into any void owned or controlled by any Coal Party that is located in any mine in the Pennsylvania Mine Area where the underground areas thereof have been permanently closed and where such disposal or storage will not, in Coal Party’s sole, reasonable discretion, determined in good faith in accordance with prudent mining activities, affect ongoing mining operations in any way. Coal Party agrees not to object to any permit or other regulatory filing or application of Gas Party with respect to the use of any such void, including cooperation on the resolution of all regulatory proceedings and litigation. Coal Party further agrees not to object to any permit or other regulatory filing or application of Gas Party with respect to the use of a void and to timely execute any waiver or consent with respect to such permit, regulatory filing, or application upon the written request of Gas Party; and in any event, to execute such waiver or consent not less than three (3) Business Daysfrom Coal Party’s receipt of such written request for a written waiver or consent.

(b) Power Lines and Substations. Gas Party or Coal Party may access and draw electrical power from any power line or substation of the other when necessary or convenient for operations related to its rights hereunder but only if and to the extent a power line or substation owned, constructed, or controlled by the other in the Pennsylvania Mine Area has surplus power or has the capacity to provide surplus power, and to the extent permitted by all applicable Laws and the terms of all Existing Permits/Agreements; provided, however, that, upon demand, accessing Party shall reimburse at cost the other Party for any usage of power in connection with the foregoing. To the extent not already accomplished in other documents, Coal Party and Gas Party hereby grant to the other a license to access and draw electrical power from other’s power lines and substations consistent with the foregoing for the term of this Agreement. Gas Party and Coal Party shall, upon demand, pay to the other its ratable share of all operating expenses and, with respect to any power line or substation constructed after the Execution Date, Gas Party’s ratable share of all capital costs relating to power lines and substations owned, constructed, or controlled by Coal Party and benefiting Gas Party or Gas Party and benefiting Coal Party.

5.6 License Requests By Gas Party or Coal Party. In order for Gas Party or Coal Party to exercise its License Use Rights, it shall request from the other specific, revocable licenses (each such revocable license, a “License”). Each such request (a “License Request”) made pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall be made in writing and shall include (i) a description of the License being requested, including its specific purpose, and (ii) a description of the surface rights or other assets, as applicable, that would be affected by such License. Following the receipt of a License Request pursuant to this Section 5.6 the Party receiving such License Request shall use reasonable discretion (exercised in good faith) to determine if such License

Request (iii) is sufficiently specific in nature and (iv) would not materially impair the value of the surface ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ other asset which is subject to such License Request. Should the Party receiving such License Request be satisfied that both clause (iii) and clause (iv) of this Section 5.6 be satisfied by such requested License, such Party shall prepare and deliver, without cost or fees to the other, such License; provided, however, such License shall contain language that it is non-exclusive and revocable and subject to (v) any applicable restrictions under any Existing Permits/Agreements, (vi) the other terms of this Agreement, and (vii) any applicable Laws.

5.7 Reimbursement of License Costs. With respect to any License Use Rights, Gas Party and Coal Party will reimburse the other for any costs (i) associated with the maintenance of that portion of the other assets pertaining to such License Use Rights (on the basis of usage or other allocation methodology reasonably calculated to reflect Gas Party’s use of such portion of the other assets held by Coal Party in proportion to the total use of such asset), (ii) any direct or Third Party costs payable under permits and/or any Third Party agreement burdening such portion of the other assets pertaining to the exercise of such License Use Rights, and (iii) any Third Party consultants’ fees, experts’ fees, bonding costs and fees, permit fees, demolition and disposal expenses and fees, governmental and regulatory taxes and fees, and other reasonable Third Party expenses paid by Coal Party to the extent directly attributable to Gas Party’s use of the other assets.

5.8 Form of Licenses. Any License delivered to Gas Party or Coal Party pursuant to Section 5.6 shall be revocable, in recordable form, and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Party to which it was delivered. For the avoidance of doubt, any License granted pursuant to Section 5.6 shall be non-exclusive and survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and shall be binding upon the granting Party’s respective successors and assigns in accordance with its terms.

The Notice of Dispute shall include a schedule of the availability of the notifying Party’s senior officers duly authorized to settle the dispute, subject to any necessary company approvals that may be needed (“Senior Officers”), during the 30-day period following the delivery of the Notice of Dispute. Within seven (7) days after delivery of the Notice, the other Party shall provide a schedule of the availability of such other Party’s Senior Officers during the remainder of the 30-day period following the delivery of the Notice of Dispute. Following delivery of the Senior Officers’ schedules of availability, the Senior Officers shall meet and confer as often as they deem reasonably necessary during the remainder of the 30-day period in good faith negotiations to resolve the dispute amicably. The Parties in their sole discretion may also agree to utilize the service of a mediator pursuant to a joint engagement.

(c) If the Parties cannot resolve any dispute or claim arising under this Agreement within thirty (30) days following the receipt of the Notice of Dispute, then no earlier than ten (10) days, nor more than sixty (60) days following written notice to the other Parties, any Party may initiate mandatory, non-binding mediation hereunder by giving a notice of mediation (a “Mediation Notice”) to the other Parties to the dispute or claim. In connection with any mediation pursuant to this Section 8.17, the mediator shall be jointly appointed by the Parties

to the dispute or claim and the mediation shall be conducted in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties to the dispute or claim. All costs and expenses of the mediator appointed pursuant to this Section 8.17 shall be shared equally by the Parties to the dispute or claim. The then-current Model ADR Procedures for Mediation of Business Disputes of the Center for Public Resources, Inc., either as written or as modified by mutual agreement of the Parties to the dispute or claim, shall govern any mediation pursuant to this Section 8.17. In the mediation, each Party to the dispute or claim shall be represented by one or more Senior Officers. If a dispute or claim has not been resolved within thirty (30) days after the receipt of the Mediation Notice by a Party, then any Party to the dispute or claim may refer the resolution of the dispute or claim to litigation.

(d) Subject to Section 8.17(c), to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Party agrees that it shall bring any action or proceeding in respect of any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, whether in tort or contract or at law or in equity, exclusively in any federal or state courts located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, (ii) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in such courts, (iii) waives any objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over it, and (iv) agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, service of process upon it may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address specified in Section 8.2. The foregoing consents to jurisdiction and service of process shall not, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Pennsylvania for any purpose except as provided herein and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the Parties.

[see attached]

EXHIBIT I – PAGE 7

Schedule 3.3(a)

VALUATION FORMULA

PROCEDURE: Each Party will select a Third Party independent reserve engineering firm to estimate the present value of the Gas Reserves related to any Protected Well which is required to be plugged and abandoned pursuant to Section 3.3(a). If each Party’s Third Party independent engineering firms’ valuation for proved developed, or proved undeveloped, if applicable, reserve calculations are within 20% of each other, the average of the two will be used for the Valuation Amount. If each Party’s independent engineering firms’ proved developed calculations values are not within 20% of each other, the Parties will mutually agree upon a third independent reserve engineering firm to calculate the proved developed, or proved undeveloped, as applicable, and the average of the (i) third firm and (ii) the Party’s firm that has the reserve estimate closest to such third firm’s estimate, shall be used for the Valuation Amount.

Part I – Lost Reserves:

The effective date for the valuation of any proved developed producing Gas Reserves (“Valuation Date”) related to any Protected Well which is required to be plugged and abandoned pursuant to Section 3.3(a) shall be the first calendar day of the first month after the month in which such Protected Well is taken off production for the purpose of preparing to plug and abandon such Protected Well.

1) Future production from such Protected Well shall be determined by establishing the actual annual production separately for oil/condensate, natural gas liquids, and gas from such Protected Well for the twelve (12) calendar months (or such shorter period if such Protected Well has not been producing for twelve (12) calendar months) prior to the month in which the Valuation Date occurs. Total future production for such Protected Well shall be determined using the actual annual decline curve for such Protected Well (“Assumed Annual Production”). For purposes hereof, it is assumed that no capital is needed to produce these Gas Reserves to depletion at this rate.

2) The gas price to be used in determining the Valuation Amount shall be NYMEX Strip Pricing for five (5) years and escalated at two percent (2%) thereafter, and adjusted for basis, marketing, and hydrocarbon quality (gas BTU/Mcf) (the “Assumed Gas Price”). If NYMEX Strip Pricing is no longer reported, the Parties shall select a replacement published price reflecting pricing in the same geographic region as the Pennsylvania Mine Area.

3) The price for condensate liquids and natural gas liquids to be used in determining the Valuation Amount shall be the average of the daily Mont Belvieu price as reported in ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Oilgram Price Report (or a successor publication) for the applicable liquid (after taking into account applicable basis differentials) for the three (3) full calendar months prior to the Valuation Date. Assumed future condensate liquid prices to be received shall be the average daily price as determined above, applied as of the Valuation Date and escalated at a two percent (2%) rate annually (“Assumed Liquids Price”).

4) Future annual operating costs for such Protected Well to be used in determining the Valuation Amount shall be determined using the actual operating costs for such Protected Well

SCHEDULE 3.3(A) – PAGE 1

for the twelve (12) calendar months (or such shorter period if such Protected Well has not been producing for twelve (12) calendar months) prior to the Valuation Date. This figure, escalated at a two percent (2%) rate annually, shall be assumed to be the future operating costs for such Protected Well (“Assumed Annual Costs”).

5) For purposes hereof “Assumed Revenues” for each calendar year (or portion of a calendar year in the year in which the Valuation Date occurs) shall equal the sum of (i) the product of (A) the Assumed Annual Production for oil/condensate for such year (or portion thereof) multiplied by (B) the Assumed Liquids Price for such calendar year (or portion thereof) plus (ii) the product of (C) the Assumed Annual Production for gas for such year (or portion thereof) multiplied by (D) the Assumed Gas Price for such calendar year (or portion thereof).

6) For purposed hereof “Assumed Profits” for each calendar year shall be calculated as (i) Assumed Revenues for the applicable calendar year less (ii) the Assumed Annual Costs for the applicable calendar year.

7) For purposes of determining the Valuation Amount, Assumed Profits shall only be calculated and used in determining the Valuation Amount for each calendar year (or portion thereof) where Assumed Revenues are greater than the Assumed Costs.

8) The value of such Protected Well shall equal the sum of the Assumed Profits discounted back to the Valuation Date using a ten percent (10%) discount rate for Proven Developed Reserves and fifteen percent (15%) for Proven Undeveloped Reserves (“Valuation Amount”).

No amount shall be paid to Gas Party for any costs of drilling such Protected Well or any associated System including equipment, fixtures, or other facilities associated with such Protected Well.

Proved undeveloped Gas Reserves valuations shall include reserve forecasts, capital costs, and operating expenses based upon offset proved developed producing properties as a basis for proved developed producing properties above.

Part II – Underlying Lease:

The Parties agree that Gas Party shall be entitled to compensation with respect to a lease or leases underlying a Protected Well which is required to be plugged and abandoned pursuant to Section 3.3(a) if, and only if, the following conditions are met (the “Lease Compensation Conditions”):

the lease(s) underlying such Protected Well which is to be plugged and abandoned pursuant to Section 3.3(a), will, even after making any available delay rentals or shut-in payments, be lost due to such plugging and abandonment (such lease(s), the “Underlying Lease(s)”);

Gas Party is not able to drill another Well on the Underlying Lease which would hold such Underlying Lease while Coal Party’s operations are preventing Gas Party from conducting operations on such Underlying Lease (such period of time, the “P&A Period”);

SCHEDULE 3.3(A) – PAGE 2

Gas Party is not able to pool all or any portion of such Underlying Lease with any adjacent lands and/or an adjacent unit in order to hold the Underlying Lease by production during the P&A Period; and

the Underlying Lease is actually lost as a result of the plugging and abandonment of the related Protected Well pursuant to Section 3.3(a).

If the Lease Compensation Conditions are met with respect to an Underlying Lease, Coal Party which requested the relocation of the Protected Well located on such Underlying Lease shall compensate Gas Party for such Underlying Lease through the payment to such Gas Party of the mutually agreed fair market value of such Underlying Lease (the “Lease Compensation Amount”).

Part III – Dispute Resolution:

The Parties will first attempt to agree if any Well is a Protected Well or a Non-Protected Well based on the terms of this Agreement. In addition, the Parties shall attempt to agree upon the Valuation Amount of the applicable Protected Well and any applicable Lease Compensation Amount, in each case, based on the status of any Well as a Protected Well or Non-Protected Well and the applicable methodology and assumptions set forth above. Other methodologies to determine the Valuation Amount and/or Lease Compensation Amount shall not be used.

In the event that the Parties are unable to agree as to the status of any Well as a Protected Well or Non-Protected Well, on the Valuation Amount and/or on the Lease Compensation Amount, any Party may request that the status of any Well as a Protected Well or Non-Protected Well, the Valuation Amount, and/or Lease Compensation Amount, as applicable, be finally and solely determined by binding arbitration in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA (the “Arbitration Rules”), this Schedule 3.3(a), and, to the maximum extent applicable, the Federal Arbitration Act:

Such arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) selected by the Parties; provided, however, that if the Parties are unable to agree on the Arbitrator, then the Arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA pursuant to the Rules. Each Party shall submit to the Arbitrator the status of the disputed Well as a Protected Well or Non-Protected Well, the Valuation Amount, and/or the Lease Compensation Amount, as applicable, that it proposes to be determined in accordance with this Agreement and/or the methodology and assumptions set forth above and the support for its proposed Well status, Valuation Amount, and/or Lease Compensation Amount, as applicable. The Arbitrator, in making its determination of whether a Well is a Protected Well or Non-Protected Well, must select one of the two classifications. The Arbitrator, in making its determination of Valuation Amount and/or Lease Compensation Amount, as applicable, may only select one of the Valuation Amount and/or Lease Compensation Amount, as applicable, determinations submitted by the Parties and may not make

SCHEDULE 3.3(A) – PAGE 3

any other determination of Valuation Amount and/or Lease Compensation Amount, as applicable. The Valuation Amount and/or Lease Compensation Amount, as applicable, determination selected by the Arbitrator shall be the Valuation Amount and/or Lease Compensation Amount, as applicable, proposed by one of the Parties that in the opinion of the Arbitrator most closely represents the Valuation Amount of the applicable Protected Well and/or Lease Compensation Amount of the affected Underlying Lease, as applicable, in each case, determined using the methodology and assumptions described above. The Arbitrator may engage independent petroleum engineers, lease brokers, or other consultants that the Arbitrator deems necessary to render a conclusion in the arbitration proceeding. The Arbitrator may proceed to a determination notwithstanding the failure of any Party to participate in such proceedings. The prevailing Party in the arbitration proceeding shall be entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with the arbitration in such amount as may be determined by the Arbitrator, and the costs of the arbitration shall be borne equally by the Parties. The Arbitrator shall have power to subpoena the records of a Party to determine the historical operating costs and production volumes of such Protected Well.

To the maximum extent practicable, an arbitration proceeding hereunder shall be concluded within ninety (90) calendar days of the initial filing of the request for arbitration with the AAA. The Arbitrator shall be empowered to impose sanctions and to take such other actions as the Arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could impose sanctions or take such other actions pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and applicable Law. Each Party agrees to keep all disputes and arbitration proceedings strictly confidential except for disclosure of information required by applicable Law.

The determination of the Arbitrator shall be (a) the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parties with respect to the determination of (i) whether a Well is a Protected Well or Non-Protected Well, (ii) the Valuation Amount of the applicable Protected Well, and/or (iii) the Lease Compensation Amount of the affected Underlying Lease, as applicable, and (b) final and binding on the Parties to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.
