(B)    any transaction in which one Family Member Transfers NACCO Common Stock or Hamilton Beach Holding Common Stock to another Family Member shall be counted only once toward the limitations in paragraphs (C) through (F) of clause (i) (so as to avoid double counting through, for example, treating such transaction as both an Acquisition by one Family Member and a Transfer by another Family Member); and

(C)    in determining the amount of voting power of NACCO Common Stock or Hamilton Beach Holding Common Stock Transferred or Acquired for purposes of paragraphs (E) and (F) of clause (i) as a result of a Share Swap, only the net increase or decrease in voting power of a Family Member resulting from such Share Swap shall be taken into account (such that, for example, a Family Member who exchanges NACCO Class A Common Stock for NACCO Class B Common Stock pursuant to a Share Swap is treated as Acquiring NACCO Common Stock representing the voting power of the NACCO Class B Common Stock Acquired less the voting power of the NACCO Class A Common Stock Transferred).

(iii)    The restriction set forth in paragraph (F) of clause (i) above shall be amended by replacing “5%” with “35%” if NACCO or Hamilton Beach Holding shall have received a favorable private letter ruling from the IRS or an Unqualified Tax Opinion, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrator, substantially to the effect that the Voting Shift will not be taken into account in determining whether the Spin-Off is part of a plan (or series of related transactions) pursuant to which one or more persons acquire directly or indirectly stock representing a 50-percent or greater interest (as defined in Section 355(e)(4)(A) of the Code) in Hamilton Beach Holding.

The parties hereto acknowledge that any Person executing this Agreement who is also an officer or director of NACCO or Hamilton Beach Holding (collectively, the “Family Directors and Officers”), is entering into this Agreement solely in his or her capacity as a stockholder, and not as an officer or director, of NACCO or Hamilton Beach Holding.

The consents to jurisdiction set forth in this paragraph shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT.

(f)    Assignment; Successors.

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, including, in the case of any Family Member, any trustee, executor, heir, legatee or personal representative succeeding to the ownership of the Family Member Shares (including upon the death, disability or incapacity of any Family Member). Any purported assignment or delegation not permitted under this Section 8(f) shall be null and void and shall not relieve the assigning or delegating party of any obligation hereunder.

(g)    Descriptive Headings. Headings of Sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of the parties only, and shall be given no substantive or interpretive effect whatsoever.

(h)    Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

(j)    Severability.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as

- 16 -

possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

(k)    Amendments and Waivers.

(l)    No Implied Waivers.

The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach and no failure by any party to exercise any right or privilege hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of such party’s rights or privileges hereunder or shall be deemed a waiver of such party’s rights to exercise the same at any subsequent time or times hereunder.

(m)    Legends; Stop Transfer Instructions.

(i)    The Administrator may require that each certificate or other instrument representing any Family Member Shares that are subject to any of the provisions of this Agreement bear a legend substantially in the following form, in addition to any other legend required under applicable law or by contract:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A TRANSFER RESTRICTION AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF [            ], 2017, BY AND AMONG NACCO INDUSTRIES, INC., A DELAWARE CORPORATION, HAMILTON BEACH BRANDS HOLDING COMPANY, A DELAWARE CORPORATION, AND EACH OF THE MEMBERS OF THE RANKIN AND TAPLIN FAMILIES PARTY THERETO. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE. THE SALE, PLEDGE, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN IS RESTRICTED BY SUCH AGREEMENT AND ANY SUCH SALE, PLEDGE, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION MAY BE MADE ONLY UPON COMPLIANCE THEREWITH.”

(ii)    In order to ensure compliance with the transfer restrictions provided for in this Agreement, NACCO and/or Hamilton Beach Holding may issue appropriate “stop transfer” certificates or instructions in the event of a Transfer in violation of any provision of this Agreement and may make appropriate notations to the same effect in their stock record books.

(n)    Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to a Section of, or an Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement

- 17 -

unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.

(o)    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement) and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.

(p)    The Administrator.

(i)    Appointment of the Administrator. Each Family Member hereby constitutes and irrevocably appoints, effective from and after the date hereof, Hamilton Beach Holding as such Family Member’s agent and attorney-in-fact (the “Administrator”) to act as the Family Members’ Representative under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Section 8(p). In the event of the resignation of the Administrator, a successor Administrator reasonably satisfactory to NACCO and Hamilton Beach Holding shall thereafter be appointed by an instrument in writing signed by such successor Administrator and by those Family Members who, as of the date hereof, held a majority of the outstanding Family Member Shares held by all Family Members, and such appointment shall become effective as to any such successor Administrator when a copy of such instrument shall have been delivered to NACCO and Hamilton Beach Holding.

(ii)    Authority. The Administrator is hereby authorized and empowered to act for, and on behalf of, any or all of the Family Members (with full power of substitution in the premises) in connection with (i) the approval of any Transfer as required by, and in accordance with, this Agreement and (ii) such other matters as are reasonably necessary for continued compliance by the Family Members with the terms of this Agreement. The Family Members shall cooperate with the Administrator and any attorneys or other agents whom the Family Member may retain to assist in carrying out its duties hereunder. Each Family Member by execution of this Agreement, and without any further action, confirms such appointment and authority. Notices given to the Administrator in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute notice to the Family Members for all purposes under this Agreement.

(iii)    Extent and Survival of Authority. The appointment of the Administrator is an agency coupled with an interest and is irrevocable and any action taken by the Administrator pursuant to the authority granted in this Section 8(p) shall be effective and absolutely binding on each Family Member notwithstanding any contrary action of or direction from such Family Member, except for actions or omissions of the Administrator constituting willful

- 18 -

misconduct or gross negligence. The death or incapacity, or dissolution or other termination of existence, of any Family Member shall not terminate the authority and agency of the Administrator.

(iv)    Release from Liability; Indemnification. Each Family Member hereby releases the Administrator from, and each Family Member agrees to indemnify the Administrator against, liability for any action taken or not taken by the Administrator in his capacity as such, except for the liability of the Administrator to a Family Member for loss which such Family Member may suffer from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Administrator in carrying out his duties hereunder. The Administrator shall not be liable to any Family Member or to any other Person, with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrator in his role as Administrator under or in connection with this Agreement, unless such action or omission results from or arises out of willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Administrator.
