ARTICLE II

TRANSFERRED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

RIGHTS AND TECHNOLOGY AND ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITIES

2.01    Assignment of Intellectual Property Rights. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, effective as of the Separation, Parent hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to CoalCo all of the right, title and interest of the Parent and any member of the Parent Group, in, to and under all Transferred Intellectual Property Rights, subject to the licenses granted to Parent in Article IV below and all other licenses granted under any such Intellectual Property Rights existing and in full force and effect as of immediately prior to the Distribution (subject to the terms and conditions contained in each such license). The Transferred Intellectual Property Rights include all of Parent’s right, title and interest in and to any and all proceeds, causes of action and rights of recovery against third parties for past and future infringement, misappropriation or other violation or impairment of any of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights. The Parties shall execute intellectual property assignments in a form substantially similar to that attached as Schedule A1 (the “Patent Assignment Agreement”), Schedule A2 (the “Trademark Assignment Agreement”), and Schedule A3 (the “Copyright Assignment”), as well as such additional case specific assignments as deemed appropriate to carry out the intent of the Parties, as applicable (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Assignment Agreements”), for recordation with the appropriate Governmental Authority.

5

(b)    Recording Change of Ownership of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights. CoalCo, or such member of the CoalCo Group designated by CoalCo, shall have the sole responsibility, at its sole cost and expense, to file the Intellectual Property Assignment Agreements and any other forms or documents as required to record the assignment of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights from Parent to CoalCo; provided, however, that, upon written request, Parent shall provide reasonable assistance to CoalCo to record the assignment, at CoalCo’s sole cost and expense.

(c)    Responsibility for Transferred Patents. Parent shall pay all fees incurred and respond to all office actions due with respect to the Transferred Patents up to and including the Distribution Date. CoalCo shall, in its sole discretion, pay or cause to be paid, all fees incurred and respond to all office actions due with respect to the Transferred Patents after the Distribution Date. At or prior to the Distribution, Parent shall provide CoalCo with a listing, in a form to be agreed upon by the Parties, of: (i) all known responses to office actions and fees due with respect to the Transferred Patents in all relevant jurisdictions with due dates within 120 days of the Distribution Date; and (ii) a copy of all hard-copy or digitally stored Docket Files relating to the Transferred Patents, unless such files are in the possession of Parent’s outside counsel or agents, in which case Parent shall send written instructions to its counsel and agents directing them to act in accordance with CoalCo’s instructions with respect to such files.

2.02    Common Infrastructure Copyrights. (a) Common Infrastructure Copyrights shall be co-owned by Parent and CoalCo. Accordingly, each Party transfers and assigns (as assignor) to the other Party (as assignee), effective as of date of Distribution, an undivided one-half part of the whole right, title, and interest in Common Infrastructure Copyrights owned by the assignor as of the Distribution Date, such undivided one-half part to be held and enjoyed by the assignee, as fully and entirely as the same would have been held and enjoyed by the assignor if this transfer had not been made. Upon a Party’s written request, the other Party shall execute documents confirming the assignment of such co-ownership interest to the requesting Party. Subject to Article VI, each co-owner shall be free to exploit the Common Infrastructure Copyrights without further consent and without accounting to the other co-owner. Each Party shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party and each of their respective former and current directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing from and against any and all Liabilities arising out of or resulting from such indemnifying Party’s exploitation of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights following the Distribution.

(b)    The Parties acknowledge that some of the materials associated with Common Infrastructure Copyrights (e.g., documents, PowerPoint slides, photo libraries, etc.) may also contain third party-owned copyrighted material (“3POCM”) such as fonts, images and graphics, which are licensed to a Party. This Section 2.02 therefore does not extend to such 3POCM, and each Party is solely responsible for obtaining its own licenses to the 3POCM. Each Party shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party and each of their respective former and current directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing from and against any and all claims by third parties arising out of or relating to such indemnifying Party’s use or exploitation of 3POCM following the Distribution.

(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except as expressly permitted by either TLA1 or TLA2, the use of any Common Infrastructure Copyrights by or for one Party, and any works related to, or based upon, any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights, may not contain any references to the other Party (or any of its marks, names, trade dress, logos or other source or business identifiers), the other Party’s publications, personnel (including senior management) or management structures, or any other indication (other than the verbatim or paraphrased reproduction of the content) that such works are based upon any Common Infrastructure Copyrights that originated with the other Party.

6

(d)    Neither Parent nor CoalCo, nor any member of their respective Groups, shall have any obligation to the other to (i) notify of any changes or proposed changes to any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights, (ii) include the other in any consideration of proposed changes to any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights, (iii) provide draft changes of any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights to the other for review or comment or (iv) provide the other with any updated materials relating to any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights.

2.03    Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets. Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets shall be co-owned by Parent and CoalCo. Accordingly, each Party transfers and assigns (as assignor) to the other Party (as assignee), effective as of the date of Distribution, an undivided one-half part of the whole right, title, and interest in Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets owned by the assignor as of the date of Distribution, such undivided one-half part to be held and enjoyed by the assignee, as fully and entirely as the same would have been held and enjoyed by the assignor if this transfer had not been made. Upon a Party’s written request, (including a member of such Party’s respective Group), the other Party shall or if applicable shall cause the relevant member of their Group, execute documents confirming the assignment of such co-ownership interest to the requesting Party. Subject to Article VI, below, each co-owner shall be free to exploit the Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets without further consent and without accounting to the other co-owner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither of the joint owners (CoalCo, Parent) shall make a Common Infrastructure Trade Secret public or otherwise destroy or impair the Trade Secret status of a Common Infrastructure Trade Secret without the prior, written consent of the other joint owner. Each Party shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party and each of their respective former and current directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing from and against any and all Liabilities arising out of or resulting from such indemnifying Party’s exploitation or disclosure of the Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets following the Distribution.

2.04    Acceptance and Assumption of Transferred Intellectual Property Liabilities. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, effective as of the Distribution, CoalCo shall accept, assume and agree faithfully to perform, discharge and fulfill the Transferred Intellectual Property Liabilities in accordance with their respective terms. CoalCo shall be responsible for all Transferred Intellectual Property Liabilities, regardless of when or where such Transferred Intellectual Property Liabilities arose or arise, or whether the facts on which they are based occurred prior to, at or subsequent to the Distribution, regardless of where or against whom such Transferred Intellectual Property Liabilities are asserted or determined or whether asserted or determined prior to the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, the scope of CoalCo’s obligations with respect to any Common Infrastructure Liabilities shall be co-extensive with, and not greater than, the scope of Parent’s obligations with respect to Common Infrastructure Liabilities.

2.05    Acceptance and Assumption by Parent of Common Infrastructure Liabilities. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, effective as of the Distribution, Parent shall accept, assume and agree faithfully to perform, discharge and fulfill the Parent Common Infrastructure Liability Percentage of any Common Infrastructure Liabilities in accordance with their respective terms. Parent shall be responsible for the Parent Common Infrastructure Liability Percentage of any Common Infrastructure Liabilities, regardless of where such Common Infrastructure Liabilities arose, or whether such Common Infrastructure Liabilities are asserted or determined prior to or after the date of this Agreement.

2.06    Delayed Transfers; Wrong Pockets. (a) In the event that it is discovered after the Distribution that there was an omission of (i) the transfer or conveyance by Parent or the acceptance or assumption by CoalCo of any Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability, as the case may be, or (ii) the

7

transfer or conveyance by one Party to, or the acceptance or assumption by, the other Party of any Intellectual Property Right, Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability, as the case may be, that, had the Parties given specific consideration to such Intellectual Property Right, Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability prior to the Distribution, would have otherwise been so transferred, conveyed, accepted or assumed, as the case may be, pursuant to this Agreement, the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly effect such transfer, conveyance, acceptance or assumption of such Intellectual Property Right, Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability. Any transfer, conveyance, acceptance or assumption made pursuant to this Section 2.06(a) shall be treated by the Parties for all purposes as if it had occurred as of the Distribution, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

(b)    In the event that it is discovered after the Distribution that there was a transfer or conveyance by Parent to, or the acceptance or assumption by, CoalCo of any Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability, as the case may be, that should not have been transferred, the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly transfer or convey such Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability back to the transferring or conveying Party or to rescind any acceptance or assumption of such Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability, as the case may be. Any transfer or conveyance made or acceptance or assumption rescinded pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) shall be treated by the Parties for all purposes as if such Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability had never been originally transferred, conveyed, accepted or assumed, as the case may be, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

(c)    To the extent that any transfer or conveyance of any Intellectual Property Right or Common Infrastructure Right acceptance or assumption of any Intellectual Property Liability or Common Infrastructure Liability required by this Agreement to be so transferred, conveyed, accepted or assumed shall not have been effected as of the Distribution Date, the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to effect such transfer, conveyance, acceptance or assumption as promptly following the Distribution Date as shall be practicable. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to require the transfer or conveyance of any Intellectual Property Rights or Common Infrastructure Rights or the acceptance or assumption of any Intellectual Property Liabilities or Common Infrastructure Liabilities which by their terms or operation of Law cannot be so transferred, conveyed, accepted or assumed; provided, however, that the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain any necessary consents for the transfer, conveyance, acceptance or assumption (as applicable) of all Transferred Intellectual Property Rights, Transferred Intellectual Property Liabilities, Common Infrastructure Rights and Common Infrastructure Liabilities required by this Agreement to be so transferred, conveyed, accepted or assumed; provided further that neither Party shall be required to contribute capital, pay or grant any consideration or concession in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation) to any Person in order to obtain or make any such consent. In the event that any such transfer, conveyance, acceptance or assumption (as applicable) has not been completed effective as of and after the Distribution Date, the Party retaining such Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability shall thereafter hold such Intellectual Property Right or Common Infrastructure Right for the use and benefit of the Party entitled thereto (at the expense of the Party entitled thereto) and retain such Intellectual Property Liability or Common Infrastructure Liability for the account, and at the expense, of the Party by whom such Intellectual Property Liability or Common Infrastructure Liability should have been assumed or accepted pursuant to this Agreement, and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the

8

Party to which such Intellectual Property Right or Common Infrastructure Right should have been transferred or conveyed, or by whom such Intellectual Property Liability or Common Infrastructure Liability should have been assumed or accepted, as the case may be, in order to place such Party, insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as would have existed had such Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability been transferred, conveyed, accepted or assumed (as applicable) as contemplated by this Agreement, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain/loss and control over such Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability. As and when any such Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability becomes transferable, the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly effect such transfer, conveyance, acceptance or assumption (as applicable). Any transfer, conveyance, acceptance or assumption made pursuant to this Section 2.06(c) shall be treated by the Parties for all purposes as if it had occurred as of the Distribution Date, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

(d)    The Party retaining any Transferred Intellectual Property Right, Transferred Intellectual Property Liability, Common Infrastructure Right or Common Infrastructure Liability due to the deferral of the transfer and conveyance of such Intellectual Property Right or Common Infrastructure Right or the deferral of the acceptance and assumption of such Intellectual Property Liability or Common Infrastructure Liability pursuant to this Section 2.06 or otherwise shall not be obligated by this Agreement, in connection with this Section 2.06, to expend any money or take any action that would require the expenditure of money (other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys’ fees and recording or similar fees, all of which shall be promptly reimbursed by the Party entitled to such Intellectual Property Right or Common Infrastructure Right or intended to assume such Intellectual Property Liability or Common Infrastructure Liability, as applicable) unless and to the extent the Party entitled to such Intellectual Property Right or Common Infrastructure Right or intended to assume such Intellectual Property Liability or Common Infrastructure Liability, as applicable, advances or agrees to reimburse it for the applicable expenditures.

2.07    Trademarks To Be Surrendered. Within thirty (30) days of the termination of TLA2, CoalCo shall surrender the trademark registrations listed in Schedule D.

2.08    Description of Services in Retained Trademarks. For each of the Excluded Trademarks, at the time of the next maintenance filing if the Excluded Trademark is registered, or within 30 days after Separation if the Excluded Trademark is the subject of a pending application, Parent shall amend the description of goods and services to delete references to “coal” and any goods or services associated with the Coal Business.

2.09    Description of Services in Transferred Trademarks. For each of the Transferred Trademarks, at the time of the next maintenance filing if the Transferred Trademark is registered, or within 30 days after Separation if the Transferred Trademark is the subject of a pending application, CoalCo shall amend the description of goods and services to delete references to “gas” and any goods or services associated with the Parent Business.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent for assignment shall be required for the assignment of a Party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement in connection with a change of control of a Party so long as the resulting, surviving or transferee Person assumes all the obligations of the relevant Party by operation of Law or pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the other Party. Nothing herein is intended to, or shall be construed to, prohibit either Party or any of its Subsidiaries from being party to or undertaking a transaction that would result in a change of control. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the licenses granted in this Agreement extend to products, product lines, services, apparatus, devices, systems, components, hardware, software, processes, solutions, any combination of the foregoing, or other offerings of the assignee existing on or before the date of the transaction described in clauses (a) or (b) of the preceding sentence, except to the extent that they were licensed under the terms of this Agreement prior to such transaction.
