BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. approximately [_ _ _ _] to [_ _ _ _] Tons of coal of the quality specified herein per Operating Year. Keystone has no obligation hereunder to purchase any minimum quantity. Such requirements will vary by seasons and may change over time. At least 60 days prior to the beginning of each Operating Year, Keystone will provide Seller with a non-binding estimate of the quantity of coal to be delivered by Seller hereunder during each month of the ensuing Operating Year. Keystone will promptly provide Seller with a revised non-binding forecast for the balance of any Operating Year if Keystone becomes aware of material changes in its pre-Operating Year forecast previously given to Seller. At least [_ _ _ _] days prior to each calendar quarter beginning with the calendar quarter in which the first delivery of coal is required hereunder, Keystone will provide Seller with a non-binding estimate of the delivery dates for all Shipments of coal which Keystone expects to Order during such calendar quarter. Keystone will provide Seller with a non-binding estimate of the quantity of coal required during each month of the period between the first delivery of coal hereunder and the Commercial Operation Date at least three months prior to the date when the first delivery of coal is required hereunder. 4.3 Monthly Orders. On or before the 15th day of each month beginning with the month preceding the month when the 14 first delivery of coal is required hereunder, Keystone shall give to Seller an order ("Order") setting forth (i) the number of Shipments of coal to be delivered by Seller during each week which begins during the following month, not to exceed two Shipments in any week and (ii) the specific dates for delivery of such Shipments which shall be spaced at least 60 hours apart. Keystone may increase by one Shipment, and decrease without limitation, the number of Shipments of coal to be delivered during any week by notifying Seller at least seven days in advance of the beginning of such week, but the total number of Shipments during any week shall not exceed two unless mutually agreed to by the parties. Subject to seasonal variations in fuel requirements of the Facility, Keystone will submit Orders for Shipments of coal in substantially equal numbers of Shipments each month. 4.4 First Delivery of Coal. Keystone may submit an Order for the first delivery of coal hereunder and subsequent monthly Orders prior to the first Operating Year for the purpose of the stockpiles described in Section 4.5 hereof, and for testing and startup purposes. 4.5 Stockpiles. Keystone expects to establish a dead storage stockpile of approximately 50,000 Tons of coal (in addition to a live storage stockpile of approximately 10,000 15 Tons of coal) at the Facility. Keystone shall have the right to purchase, and upon request Seller agrees to deliver, approximately 50,000 Tons of coal for the dead storage stockpile pursuant to monthly Orders of Keystone pursuant to Section 4.3. 4.6 Coordination of Maintenance Periods. Keystone and Seller acknowledge that the barge arranged for by Seller will not be available for coal deliveries hereunder for up to four weeks during each Operating Year for routine, annual maintenance and repair.

BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. Seller's barge or vessel has arrived in the vicinity of Keystone's berth, and the barge operator has given notice of readiness to Keystone, but is unable to safely moor due to an obstruction at Keystone's berth not caused by Seller or its subcontractors. Lay Time shall end when Keystone has (i) unloaded Seller's barge or vessel so that no more coal, practicably recoverable by "bobcat" type unloading machinery typically used for this purpose, remains in such barge or vessel; and (ii) cleaned any spillage of coal on the exterior of such barge or vessel which occurred during the unloading operations; and (iii) notified the representative of the barge or vessel owner that the unloading operation is complete. 5.4 Demurrage. Demurrage at the rate of [_ _ _ _] per hour (as of January 1, 1993) shall accrue for all time that exceeds the allowable Lay Time as provided herein. The demurrage rate shall be reduced by [_ _ _ _] for that period of time when a tug is not accompanying Seller's barge or vessel during unloading operations; provided that if (a) Keystone has given notice to the barge owner of the time when the barge will be unloaded, (b) the tug is ordered to sail the barge from the Facility and (c) Keystone has not unloaded the barge by the later of (i) the time stated in Keystone's notice to the barge owner and (ii) the time that the tug arrives at the Facility, 19 then full demurrage shall apply unless Keystone shall have given Seller notice to cancel the tug at least 24 hours prior to the tug's original sailing orders. The demurrage rate shall be escalated each calendar year commencing January l, 1994, by the GDP Deflator provided however, that such escalation shall not be more than 5% per year and any excess shall not be reflected in the price adjustment in any succeeding year. 5.5 Tie-Up Time. Keystone shall provide Seller's barge or vessel additional tie-up time at the pier on a "mutually convenient" basis. Such additional tie-up time shall not impede or make unsafe other dockside activities.

Keystone will make its delivery facilities available for off loading of coal 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. 5.7 Docking and Undocking. Keystone's personnel shall not be required to board the barge or vessel at any time during docking or undocking of the barge or vessel, however, Keystone's personnel or its agent will handle mooring lines on dockside, under the direction of the tug's personnel, for 20 Seller's barge or vessel. Seller shall be liable for any damages to Keystone's property as a result of the actions of Seller's employees, agents or subcontractors and Keystone shall be liable for any damages to the barge or vessel as a result of the actions of its employees, agents or subcontractors. 5.8 Notices of Shipments. (a) On or before the 25th day of each month beginning with the month preceding the month when the first delivery of coal is required hereunder, Seller shall give to Keystone a schedule (a "Seller Loading Notice") setting forth the dates for loading into rail cars each Shipment of coal to be shipped to Keystone during such month (the "Load Dates"). At least 24 hours prior to each Load Date, Keystone may send to Seller a notice instructing Seller either to proceed or not to proceed with the scheduled loading of such Shipment (a "Keystone Loading Notice"). In the event that (i) Keystone shall fail to deliver in a timely manner a Keystone Loading Notice which instructs Seller not to proceed with a Shipment and (ii) an event of Force Majeure shall delay the unloading of such Shipment by Keystone, then Keystone shall be liable to Seller for all demurrage attributable to such delay, as determined pursuant to Section 5.4. In the event that (i) Keystone shall fail to deliver in a timely manner a Keystone Loading Notice which instructs Seller not to proceed with a Shipment and (ii) 21 an event of Force Majeure shall prevent the unloading of such Shipment by Keystone, then Keystone may cancel such Shipment and shall reimburse Seller for all costs incurred by Seller in the transportation and discharge of such Shipment, including but not limited to any rail or barge demurrage charges. If within 72 hours of the arrival of a Shipment at the Facility, the unloading of such Shipment by Keystone has not commenced or has commenced but has ceased before completion due to Force Majeure at the Facility and Keystone has not cancelled such Shipment, then Keystone shall advise Seller of its intended disposition of such Shipment. If Keystone fails to notify Seller of such disposition within 72 hours of the arrival of such shipment at the Facility, the Shipment shall be deemed to have been cancelled by Keystone. If Keystone shall cancel any Shipment pursuant to this Section 5.8(a), Seller shall cooperate with Keystone and use all due diligence to mitigate costs of disposition of such Shipment. (b) For each Shipment, Seller shall send Keystone a shipping notice within 36 hours following loading thereof into rail cars at the Mines. The shipping notice shall include the identification number, mine from which supplied, estimated tonnage shipped, shipping date, scheduled date of delivery, Rail Sample analysis pursuant to Section 10.3(a), and other 22 information reasonably required by Keystone. Bills of Lading shall include name of Seller, contract number, identification number, date loaded and Seller's shipped weights. (c) All notices pursuant to this Section 5.8 shall be sent by telecopy or by other mutually agreed upon means. 5.9 Notice of Insurance.

ARTICLE VI QUALITY 6.1 General Quality Provisions. Seller shall cause the mining and loading of the coal to be conducted so that all coal loaded into rail cars at the Mines shall be substantially free from impurities and extraneous materials related to the mining and processing of coal. Seller represents and warrants 23 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. that the quality of each Shipment of coal hereunder shall satisfy each Mine Mouth Rejection Specification set forth in Section 6.2 and that the weighted average quality of all coal delivered during any month hereunder shall satisfy each Semi-Monthly Average Contract Specification set forth in Section 6.2. 6.2 Rejection, Suspension and Contract Specifications. The "as received" Mine Mouth Rejection Specifications, Semi-Monthly Average Suspension Specifications, and Semi-Monthly Average Contract Specifications for coal delivered hereunder shall be as follows:
Semi- Semi- Mine Monthly Monthly Mouth Average Average Rejection Suspension Contract Characteristic Specs Specs Specs - --------------------------- ---------- ----------- ---------- Calorific Value Btu/lb (HHV) [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] Sulfur (% wt.) [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] Ash (% wt.) [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] Moisture (% wt.) [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] Volatile Matter (% wt.) [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _]
Suspension Specifications for additional characteristics are set forth in Section 6.6(a). A non-binding 24 example of the typical specification of the coal to be delivered under this Agreement is set forth in Exhibit C. The typical coal specification set forth in Exhibit C has been established for the purpose of determining the performance of the Facility. 6.3 Rejection of Coal. Any Shipment of coal which does not conform to each Mine Mouth Rejection Specification as set forth in Section 6.2 shall be deemed to be Rejection Point Coal. Seller shall take all practical precautions to prevent delivering Rejection Point Coal to Keystone and shall not knowingly deliver Rejection Point Coal to Keystone unless Keystone consents thereto on terms mutually agreeable. Keystone may reject any Shipment of coal which is Rejection Point Coal by notice to Seller by telephone, confirmed in writing. Any such notice of rejection shall be given within 24 hours after receipt of the Independent Laboratory's Rail Sample analysis of the Shipment of coal in question pursuant to Section l0.3(a). In the event of a delay in the delivery of the Independent Laboratory's Rail Sample analysis of a Shipment, Seller may elect to proceed with the delivery of such Shipment on the basis of Seller's Rail Sample analysis pursuant to Section 10.3(a); provided that the Independent Laboratory's Rail Sample analysis of such Shipment shall be determinative of Keystone's right to reject such Shipment. Keystone is not obligated to unload a 25 Shipment of coal until either (i) Keystone has received the Independent Laboratory's Rail Sample analysis and such analysis satisfies the Rejection Specifications set forth in Section 6.2, or (ii) Keystone has accepted such Shipment. Keystone may not reject any Shipment of coal after it has accepted or unloaded such Shipment. If a Shipment of Rejection Point Coal has reached the Point of Delivery and has not been accepted or unloaded by Keystone, then Seller shall cause such Shipment of Rejection Point Coal to be removed from the Point of Delivery within three days after notice of such rejection, and Seller shall be responsible for all costs of removal. If a Shipment of Rejection Point Coal is rejected by Keystone, then Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver a replacement Shipment of coal within seven days and be responsible for all costs of delivery. 6.4 Suspension of Shipments. If the weighted semimonthly average quality analysis of all coal delivered during any month hereunder, as reported by Seller to Keystone pursuant to Section 10.3(b), fails to conform to each Semi-Monthly Average Suspension Specification as set forth in Section 6.2, Keystone may suspend further Shipments by notice to Seller given within ten days following receipt of Seller's report on quality pursuant to Section 10.3(b). Such suspension shall apply to all 26 Shipments not in transit on the date of the notice of suspension and shall continue until Seller provides adequate assurances that future Shipments will conform to the quality specifications set forth in Section 6.2. If Seller has not provided such adequate assurances within 10 days after receiving notice from Keystone of the suspension of Shipments, then Seller shall have committed an Event of Default as specified in Section 12.1(d) hereof. 6.5 Replacement Coal. Keystone may purchase replacement coal in reasonable purchase quantities to cover suspended or rejected Shipments under the following circumstances, and in each case, Seller shall reimburse Keystone for the excess of the costs reasonably incurred by Keystone in connection with the purchase of replacement coal over the costs that otherwise would have been incurred in connection with the purchase of coal under the terms of this Agreement: (a) Seller fails to replace a Shipment of coal which has been rejected by Keystone pursuant to Section 6.3 because it is Rejection Point Coal, (b) Keystone has suspended further shipments by Seller pursuant to Section 6.4 or 6.6(a), or (c) Seller fails to deliver any Shipment of coal for reasons other than Force Majeure within three days of the delivery date specified for such Shipment pursuant to Section 4.3, provided that if Seller 27 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. notifies Keystone of its intent to provide a replacement shipment of coal pursuant to Section 6.3, such failure period shall be 7 days. 6.6 Coal Handling or Operating Problems. (a) If Keystone experiences any coal handling or operating problem at the Facility which Keystone reasonably concludes is the result of Seller's delivering coal hereunder which has any of the following characteristics: (i) [_ _ _ _] or more of coal delivered has a top size greater than [_ _ _ _] inches, (ii) contains, on a semi-monthly average basis, in excess of [_ _ _ _] coal of less than [_ _ _ _], (iii) a minimum grindability (HGI) of [_ _ _ _], or (iv) a minimum ash fusion temperature of [_ _ _ _](Degree)F (I.D. - Reducing), then Keystone may notify Seller of the nature of such problem and the particular specification(s) which Keystone reasonably concludes to be causing such problem. Unless Seller has provided adequate assurances to Keystone within [_ _ _ _] days following receipt of such notice that future deliveries hereunder will conform to the specifications set forth in this Section 6.6(a), Keystone may, immediately upon a second notice to Seller, suspend further Shipments including those in transit until Seller can provide such adequate assurances. If Shipments are suspended, Seller shall advise Keystone weekly of progress made toward correcting the deficiency. If Seller has not provided such adequate 28 assurances to Keystone within 60 days following receipt of such notice of suspension of Shipments, then Seller shall have committed an Event of Default as specified in Section 12.1(d). (b) If Seller provides coal in compliance with this Agreement, and such coal causes operating, mechanical or handling problems in the Facility, Keystone and Seller agree to work together in good faith to resolve such problems. Keystone shall notify Seller of the specific nature of such problems. Seller agrees to provide advice and consultation on solutions for such problems to the extent it can do so. Keystone agrees to make modifications to the material handling or feed system of the Facility to minimize or eliminate such problems to the extent it can do so at reasonable cost. In the event that Keystone is unable to make reasonable cost modifications to the Facility to resolve such problems, Seller agrees to modify the coal supplied hereunder to minimize or eliminate such problems to the extent it can do so. If such problems cannot be resolved to the reasonable satisfaction of Keystone within 150 days of Keystone's notice to Seller concerning such problems, either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon 30 days' prior written notice of termination to the other party. (c) If Seller provides coal in compliance with this Agreement, and such coal causes Keystone to be unable to dispose 29 of ash due to constituents in the coal which results in the ash having constituents which exceed the permitted levels set forth in Keystone's disposal permits, Keystone and Seller agree to work together in good faith to resolve such problem. Keystone shall notify Seller of the specific nature of such problem, including the relevant permitted levels set forth in Keystone's disposal permits. Seller agrees to provide advice and consultation on solutions for such problem to the extent it can do so. Keystone agrees to make modifications to the Facility to resolve such problem to the extent it can do so at reasonable cost. If such problem cannot be resolved to the reasonable satisfaction of Keystone within 120 days of Keystone's notice to Seller concerning such problem, either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon 30 days' prior written notice of termination to the other party. 6.7 Adjustment of Price for New Specifications. If Seller is to provide coal conforming to new specifications agreed to by Seller and Keystone as a result of adjustments made pursuant to Sections 6.6(b), 6.6(c) or otherwise, the Base Price of coal shall be negotiated by Seller and Keystone in good faith to reflect such adjustment to the new specifications. If the parties are unable to reach agreement on a price adjustment, either party may terminate this Agreement. 30 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. 6.8 Corrective Actions. Promptly following any suspension of deliveries hereunder pursuant to Section 6.4 or Section 6.6(a), Seller shall undertake corrective actions diligently and in good faith in order to provide Keystone adequate assurances as required under such Sections. During the continuance of any such suspension, Seller shall no less frequently than once every week advise Keystone of Seller's determinations as to the nature of the conditions causing such noncompliance with such specifications, all efforts underway by Seller to correct such conditions, and the results of such efforts. 6.9 Change in Law. If Keystone is unable to burn the coal supplied hereunder without significant alteration of the Facility due to a change in Applicable Laws resulting in a Force Majeure event, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon a solution, but if no solution can be agreed upon within 120 days, either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon 30 days' prior written notice to the other party. 6.10 Testing of Coal with Volatility Less than [_ _ _ _]. During the initial twelve months of Commercial Operation, or such longer period as may be necessary to maintain boiler warranties in effect, Seller shall supply coal to 31 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. Keystone having a volatility of not less than [_ _ _ _]. Thereafter, the parties agree to conduct a testing program using coal having a volatility of less than [_ _ _ _], but in no event less than [_ _ _ _], with a view to determining whether the boiler can be satisfactorily operated using such coal. Keystone shall consult with Seller during such tests, and shall promptly report the results of the tests to Seller. Keystone shall determine the lowest volatility coal [_ _ _ _] at which the boiler can be satisfactorily operated, and shall promptly notify Seller of its determination, in which event the coal specification in this Agreement shall be deemed modified to reflect the results of the tests. 6.11 EXCLUSIONS OF WARRANTIES. THE AGREEMENT AND EXPRESS WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN SECTIONS 3.2, 6.1 AND 6.2 SHALL BE IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTIES BY SELLER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. ARTICLE VII PRICE 7.1 Base Price. The Base Price for coal with the quality defined as Semi-Monthly Average Contract Specifications in Section 6.2 and delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery 32 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. subsequent to the Commercial Operation Date is [_ _ _ _] per Ton, effective January 1, 1993, for annual quantities of [_ _ _ _] Tons or less, and [_ _ _ _] per Ton, effective January 1, 1993, for annual quantities greater than or equal to [_ _ _ _] Tons. For annual quantities between [_ _ _ _] and [_ _ _ _] Tons, the Base Price for coal shall be an amount per Ton determined by linear interpolation between [_ _ _ _] and [_ _ _ _], effective January 1 1993. For annual quantities between [_ _ _ _] and [_ _ _ _] Tons, the Base Price for coal shall be an amount per Ton determined by linear interpolation between [_ _ _ _] and [_ _ _ _], effective January 1, 1993. The Base Price for all coal delivered prior to the Commercial Operation Date shall be [_ _ _ _] per Ton, effective January 1, 1993. Commencing with the first full Operating Year and continuing with each Operating Year thereafter, for annual quantities less than [_ _ _ _] Tons, Keystone shall pay Seller a dedication fee (the "Dedication Fee") for each Ton of the shortfall amount, unless such shortfall is a result of suspension or rejection of deliveries pursuant to Sections 6.3, 6.4 or 6.6(a), an event of Force Majeure, or termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. Effective as of January 1, 1993, the Dedication Fee shall be [_ _ _ _] per Ton of the shortfall amount and shall be escalated each calendar year thereafter by the GDP Deflator, provided however, that such escalation shall not be more than [_ _ _ _] per year and any excess 33 shall not be reflected in the price adjustment in any succeeding year. 7.2 Escalation of Base Price. From January 1, 1993 through the expiration of the Initial Term or any Extended Term of this Agreement, the Base Price for Coal delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery shall be adjusted on an annual basis by the Base Escalator pursuant to Section 7.3 or, if applicable, the New Base Escalator or other escalator determined pursuant to Section 7.6. 7.3 Base Escalator. The Base Escalator is defined in Article 5.1B(ii) of the Agreement for Purchase of Electric Power between Atlantic Electric and Keystone attached hereto as Exhibit D; provided that the term "bituminous coal" referred to therein shall have the meaning set forth in Section 7.5 hereof. Pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement for Purchase of Electric Power, the Base Escalator will be established by Atlantic Electric and reported to Keystone in the first quarter of each calendar year. The first Base Escalator adjustment shall occur in 1994. The value of the Base Escalator established for a calendar year will be applied to all coal delivered during that calendar year. 34 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. 7.4 Adjustment of Price for Sulfur Content. The Base Price of coal shall be adjusted for changes in the annual average of the sulfur content of bituminous coal (as defined in Section 7.5) used by New Jersey utilities as follows:
Annual Average Price Price Sulfur Content Reduction/Ton Increase/Ton - -------------- ------------- ------------ 0-0.5% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 0.5-0.6% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 0.6-0.7% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 0.7-0.8% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 0.8-0.9% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 0.9-1.5% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 1.5-1.6% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 1.6-1.7% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 1.7-1.8% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 1.8-1.9% [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 1.9% and greater [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _]
The Price Reduction and Price Increase rates for changes in the average annual sulfur content in the coal shall be effective as of January 1, 1993 and shall be adjusted each calendar year by the GDP Deflator, provided however, that such adjustment shall not be more than [_ _ _ _] per year and any excess shall not be reflected in the price adjustment in any succeeding year. 7.5 Bituminous Coal. The annual average cost of bituminous coal (for purposes of the Base Escalator) and sulfur content (for purposes of Section 7.4) shall be based on the Form 423 reports filed with FERC by New Jersey utilities reporting the annual average cost of bituminous coal used by such New Jersey utilities. For purposes of this Agreement "bituminous 35 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. coal" as reported by New Jersey utilities on FERC Form 423 shall mean bituminous coal with the following quality specifications:
Bituminous Coal Parameter As Received Ranges - ------------------------- ------------------ ~~Heating Value, Btu/Lb [_ _ _ _] Ash Content, % [_ _ _ _] Sulfur Content, % [_ _ _ _]~~
7.6 New Base Escalator. (a) If during the Initial Term or any Extended Term of this Agreement the Base Escalator as defined in Article 5.1B(ii) of the Agreement for Purchase of Electric Power between Atlantic Electric and Keystone is no longer effective and a new Base Escalator is established by Atlantic Electric and agreed to by Keystone as the new Base Escalator (the "New Base Escalator") applicable to the Agreement for Purchase of Electric Power, then, subject to the provisions of Section 7.6(b) below, such New Base Escalator shall apply to this Agreement for the calculation of the Base Price of coal. Subject to Section 7.6(b) below, the New Base Escalator shall apply from the date the existing Base Escalator is no longer effective. (b) Keystone agrees to notify Seller promptly of the non-effectiveness or significant risk of non-effectiveness of the existing Base Escalator. Keystone further agrees to keep Seller informed as to the status and content of its negotiations with Atlantic Electric to establish the New Base Escalator. 36 Keystone shall give good faith consideration to any suggestions or objections raised by Seller concerning the proposed terms of the New Base Escalator. In the event that Keystone and Atlantic Electric agree to a New Base Escalator and Seller believes that it will suffer a gross inequity because of the adverse effect such New Base Escalator will have on determining the escalations of the Base Price, then, within 10 days of receipt of a written notice from Seller, Keystone shall negotiate in good faith with Seller to establish a basis other than the New Base Escalator for providing reasonable escalation to the Base Price for the remaining term of this Agreement from the date that the Base Escalator is no longer effective. The new basis for providing a reasonable escalation to the Base Price as agreed to by the parties shall be a 100% bituminous coal (as defined in Section 7.5) based escalator. If after 30 days of negotiations the parties are unable to agree on a new basis for providing a reasonable escalation, Seller may submit such matter to arbitration pursuant to Article XVIII and the arbitrator shall be directed to develop a 100% bituminous coal (as defined in Section 7.5) based escalator comparable to such escalators used by utilities in the New Jersey region for coal fired power plants. 37 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. 7.7 Government Imposition. If any change in any current non-federal Applicable Law or the existence of a new non-federal Applicable Law (any such change or new non-federal Applicable Law is referred to herein as a "Government Imposition") shall result in an increase in the cost to Seller of the mining, processing or transporting of coal hereunder, then Keystone shall reimburse Seller for 50% of Seller's increased costs resulting from such Government Imposition. Such extra costs will be billed separately and shall be accompanied by reasonable documentary evidence supporting the extra costs. ARTICLE VIII PREMIUMS AND PENALTIES FOR VARIATIONS IN QUALITY 8.1 Calculation and Billing of Premiums and Penalties. Premiums and penalties shall apply to all coal delivered under this Agreement based upon the semi-monthly average analysis of coal as determined pursuant to Section 10.3(b). Premiums and penalties shall be calculated at the end of each Billing Period based upon a comparison with the Semi-Monthly Average Contract Specifications set forth in Section 6.2. 8.2 Premiums and Penalties for Calorific Value. The Base Price is based on coal with a calorific value of [_ _ _ _] Btu 38 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. per pound. If the actual semi-monthly average calorific value of all coal delivered in any Billing Period is greater or less than [_ _ _ _] Btu per pound, then a premium or penalty shall be determined in accordance with the following formulae: [_ _ _ _] Penalty = ----- [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] Premium = ----- [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] Where: [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 8.3 Premiums and Penalties for Ash. The Base Price is based on coal with an ash content of [_ _ _ _]. If the actual semimonthly average ash content of all coal delivered in any Billing Period is [_ _ _ _], then a premium or penalty shall be determined in accordance with the following formula: 39 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. [_ _ _ _] Penalty = ----- [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] Premium = ----- [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] Where: [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 8.4 Premiums and Penalties for Sulfur. Seller expects to deliver coal with a sulfur content of approximately [_ _ _ _]. If the average semi-monthly sulfur content of the delivered coal during any billing period is [_ _ _ _], Keystone shall pay Seller a premium of [_ _ _ _] per Ton [_ _ _ _] that the average semi-monthly sulfur content is [_ _ _ _] during such billing period. If the sulfur content of any delivered coal is [_ _ _ _], Keystone may reject the coal in accordance with Section 6.3 of this Agreement. The [_ _ _ _] Ton premium shall be effective as of January 1, 1993 and shall be escalated each calendar year by the GDP Deflator provided however, that such escalation shall not exceed [_ _ _ _] per year and 40 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. any excess shall not be reflected in the price adjustment in any succeeding year. The [_ _ _ _] per Ton premium is based upon an estimated Ash Disposal Price of not less than [_ _ _ _]Ton effective January 1, 1991. An example of the calculation used to determine the adjustment of the premium is attached hereto as Exhibit E. ARTICLE IX BILLING AND PAYMENT 9.1 Billing. For purposes of this Agreement, Seller shall submit invoices for coal delivered to Keystone on the basis of a semi-monthly Billing Period. A Billing Period shall consist of that period of days from the [_ _ _ _] to the [_ _ _ _] of each month, or the [_ _ _ _] to the [_ _ _ _] of each month. Seller shall submit to Keystone an invoice by the [_ _ _ _] and [_ _ _ _] of each month for all coal delivered to the Point of Delivery at the Facility and accepted by Keystone during the preceding Billing Period. Seller may submit invoices to Keystone by fax. Each semi-monthly invoice shall be itemized by Shipment and show (i) the quantity of coal delivered during the Billing Period, (ii) the Base Price (including any adjustments pursuant to Sections 7.4, or 7.6), (iii) the semi-monthly average analysis of coal delivered during the Billing Period as determined pursuant to Section 10.3(b), (iv) premiums and penalties for variations in 41 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. quality as provided for in Article VIII, and (v) the supporting calculations. If any revision of the Base Price is in process, invoicing shall be made on the basis of the existing Base Price, and appropriate retroactive adjustments shall be made when the new Base Price has been calculated. For invoicing purposes, the parties agree that the Base Price during the initial Operating Year shall be calculated on the basis of [_ _ _ _] tons; for each subsequent Operating Year, the Base Price shall be calculated on the basis of the greater of an annual quantity of [_ _ _ _] tons or the previous year's quantity until the earlier of (i) the date on which Seller shall have delivered [_ _ _ _] tons of coal in such Operating Year or (ii) the end of such Operating Year (the earlier of such dates being the "Annual Quantity Determination Date"). As soon as practicable following the Annual Quantity Determination Date, (i) Seller shall credit Keystone for the aggregate amount, if any, by which the Base Price actually invoiced by Seller during such Operating Year exceeded the Correct Base Price, or (ii) Keystone shall pay to Seller the aggregate amount, if any, by which the Correct Base Price exceeded the amount actually paid by Keystone pursuant to invoice from Seller. An example of the calculations used for the computation of the Base Price and any premiums or penalties is attached hereto as Exhibit E. 42 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. 9.2 Payment. Keystone shall pay Seller amounts due as shown on invoices rendered pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof no later than [_ _ _ _] days after receipt of an invoice. If the payment due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, the payment will be due on the preceding business day. Payments shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to Seller's account at a bank designated by Seller. In the event part or all of a payment is not made when due, interest shall accrue and be payable on the overdue amount at a rate equal to the daily Prime Rate Plus [_ _ _ _], as published by the Mellon Bank (East) in Philadelphia, for the number of days that payment is late. 9.3 Disputed Invoices. Keystone shall pay the full amount of each invoice except for disputed amounts. Subject to Section 18.2, Keystone shall not be obligated to pay any portion of an invoice which it, in good faith, believes is in dispute. In such case, on or before that payment is due, Keystone shall notify Seller in writing of its reasons for disputing an invoice amount, or its reason for believing such portion of an invoice to be in dispute. If Keystone is determined to be in error regarding a disputed amount, Keystone shall pay such withheld amount immediately upon such determination, together with interest at the rate specified in Section 9.2. 43 9.4 Records of Seller. Seller shall maintain complete and accurate records to support all invoices submitted pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof. Keystone shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice, to inspect and review at Seller's offices any such records at any reasonable time for the purpose of verifying the correctness of any invoice submitted by Seller to Keystone, any adjustment to the Coal Price and any calculation of premiums and penalties for variations in quality. ARTICLE X WEIGHING, SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS 10.1 Weighing. The weights of coal delivered hereunder shall be determined by the use of certified scales maintained by the railroad transporting the coal to Seller's barge or vessel loading facility. Seller shall arrange with the transporting railroad to weigh the coal pursuant to a procedure developed by Seller and the railroad and approved by Keystone. Seller and Keystone may be present during such weighings, and the railroad weights shall be final and binding on both Seller and Keystone. In the event Seller installs certified scales which meet the railroad's requirements and the railroad no longer weighs Seller's shipments to Keystone, the weights of coal delivered hereunder shall be determined by the use of Seller's certified scales so long as Seller weighs the coal 44 pursuant to a procedure approved by Keystone which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The weights that are determined in the manner set forth above will be binding on both Keystone and Seller. 10.2 Sampling. Seller shall take a representative sample of coal contained in each shipment at the time the coal is loaded into rail cars (the "Rail Sample") and the Independent Laboratory shall take a representative sample at the time the coal is transferred from the rail cars into the barge or vessel (the "Barge Sample"). Each Rail Sample and Barge Sample shall be taken using a mechanical sampling system taking full stream increments. Each Rail Sample and Barge Sample for a Shipment from the mechanical sampler shall be divided into three parts, and each part shall be placed into an airtight container and suitably labeled. With respect to each Rail Sample, one part shall be delivered to the Independent Laboratory for analysis by the Independent Laboratory in accordance with ASTM Methods D-2234 and D-2013 or such other methods as may reasonably be agreed upon by the parties; one part shall be retained by Seller for its own analysis; and the third part shall be delivered to and retained by the Independent Laboratory for a period of 45 days from the date of sampling for referee analysis pursuant to Section 10.4. With respect to each Barge Sample, one part shall 45 be retained by the Independent Laboratory for analysis by the Independent Laboratory in accordance with ASTM Methods D-2234 and D-2013 or such other methods as may reasonably be agreed upon by the parties; one part shall be retained by the Independent Laboratory for analysis upon the request of either party at the expense of the requesting party; and the third part shall be retained by the Independent Laboratory for a period of 45 days from the date of sampling for referee analysis pursuant to Section 10.4. Either party shall have the right to have a representative present at any and all times to observe the sampling and sample preparation hereunder and to obtain sample splits for check purposes. 10.3 Analysis. (a) The Independent Laboratory shall analyze its part of each Rail Sample at the expense of Seller. The analysis of each Rail Sample for moisture, ash, sulfur, volatile matter and calorific value shall be reported by the Independent Laboratory to Keystone and Seller by telecopier within 36 hours following the loading of such Shipment. If Seller or Keystone disputes any Rail Sample analysis made by the Independent Laboratory, then the Independent Laboratory shall perform a referee analysis of such Rail Sample pursuant to Section 10.4. The Independent Laboratory's Rail Sample analysis 46 shall be used to determine Keystone's right to reject coal pursuant to Section 6.3. (b) The Independent Laboratory shall analyze its part of each Barge Sample at the equal and shared expense of Seller and Keystone. The analysis of such Barge Sample for moisture, ash, sulfur, volatile matter and calorific value shall be reported by the Independent Laboratory by telecopier to Keystone and Seller within 24 hours following the loading of such Shipment. If Seller or Keystone disputes any Barge Sample analysis made by the Independent Laboratory, then the Independent Laboratory shall perform a referee analysis of such Barge Sample pursuant to Section 10.4. The Independent Laboratory's Barge Sample analysis shall be determinative of coal quality under this Agreement and shall govern for billing and payment purposes unless superseded pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.4. As soon as practicable following the end of each Billing Period, Seller shall provide to Keystone a report of the semi-monthly average analysis of each of the characteristics listed in Section 6.2 for all coal delivered hereunder during each Billing Period, which analysis shall be based upon the Independent Laboratory's Barge Sample analysis of such coal. 47 10.4 Referee Analysis. The Independent Laboratory shall perform the referee analysis of any disputed Rail Sample analysis or Barge Sample analysis made by the Independent Laboratory or by Seller. The parties will agree to designate an alternate Independent Laboratory if for any reason the first named Independent Laboratory is unavailable or becomes unacceptable to either party. With respect to the characteristics of the coal in dispute, the analysis in dispute shall be deemed to have been confirmed if the difference between the referee analysis of the Independent Laboratory and the disputed analysis is within the tolerance as specified within the applicable ASTM standards. If the disputed analysis is so confirmed, then all costs of such referee analysis shall be borne by the party initiating the referee analysis. If a disputed analysis is not so confirmed, then such analysis shall be superseded by the referee analysis of the Independent Laboratory, and all costs of such referee analysis shall be shared equally by the parties. ARTICLE XI FORCE MAJEURE 11.1 Definition of Force Majeure. The term "Force Majeure" shall mean any cause or event beyond the reasonable control of either party causing a failure or delay of that party 48 in performing any obligation hereunder, which events shall include, but are not limited to: drought, flood, earthquake, storm, fire or lightning; epidemic; acts or failure to act of local, state, federal or civil government; war or its cessation; riot, disturbance or sabotage; acts of terrorism; nuclear emergency or other cataclysmic occurrences; labor shortage, strikes or similar labor difficulty and interruptions; area-wide rail, barge or vessel shortage, or other interruptions to transportation (including obstruction of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal); authorized diversion or confiscation of coal; accidents; breakdowns of or damage to plant, equipment or facilities; forced outages at the Facility; failure of Atlantic City Electric Company to perform its obligations under the Agreement for Purchase of Electric Power; failure of Monsanto Chemical Company to perform its obligations under the Electric Power Sales Agreement or Steam Supply Agreement; failure of a third party to perform under any material contract related to the Facility and to which Keystone is a party; perils of the sea; or other such causes, whether of like or dissimilar nature, whether or not foreseen or foreseeable by either or both of the parties, which wholly or partially hinders, prevents, interrupts or delays (i) the production, loading, unloading, transportation, sampling, analysis or delivery of the coal by Seller or its subcontractors, (ii) the receiving, unloading, 49 storing or burning of the coal by Keystone or its subcontractors, or (iii) otherwise prevents, interrupts, hinders or delays the performance of a party's obligations hereunder. The term Force Majeure shall specifically include the inability of Keystone to burn the coal supplied hereunder in the Facility without significant alteration of the Facility or installation of additional significant equipment in order to comply with changes in Applicable Laws. The term Force Majeure shall not include any market driven forces such as: scarcity of commodities; increased transportation cost; costs of inventory; outages at Keystone's Facility resulting from economic dispatch; or other economic factors faced by Seller or Keystone. 11.2 Consequence of Force Majeure. A party's performance of its obligations hereunder, except obligations to make payments of money already due to the other party hereunder prior to the occurrence of the Force Majeure event, shall be excused to the extent prevented, interrupted, hindered or delayed by a Force Majeure event. In case of reduction of Seller's output and consequent inability to deliver or reduction of Keystone's ability to accept delivery of, or to consume coal, resulting from an event of Force Majeure, Seller and Keystone shall endeavor, upon request of the other, to continue the delivery and acceptance, respectively, of substantially the same 50 proportion of their respective production and consumption as so reduced. Deficiencies in the quantity of coal delivered hereunder due to a Force Majeure event shall not be made up except by mutual agreement of Keystone and Seller. The party claiming excuse because of a Force Majeure event shall give notice by telephone to the other party immediately upon becoming aware of such event, with such notice confirmed in writing as soon as practicable thereafter under the circumstances. Such notice to the other party shall describe the circumstances of the event or cause giving rise to the claim of Force Majeure and the anticipated duration thereof. During the existence of any Force Majeure event preventing delivery of coal by Seller, Keystone shall have the right to purchase and utilize replacement coal from other suppliers in a quantity which bears a commercially reasonable relation to the quantity which would have been delivered to Keystone but for such Force Majeure event. Keystone, at its sole discretion, shall give Seller the opportunity to bid on the supply of such replacement coal and, within fifteen days, to match the terms offered by such other suppliers. During the existence of any Force Majeure event preventing utilization of coal by Keystone, Seller shall have the right to sell coal dedicated to Keystone to third parties in a quantity which bears a commercially reasonable relation to the 51 quantity which would have been delivered to Keystone but for such Force Majeure event. 11.3 Events Beyond Control of a Party. As used in Section 11.1, an event shall be deemed to be beyond the control of the party claiming excuse if such party is unable to avoid or overcome such event despite the exercise of due diligence. A strike or other labor dispute shall be deemed to be beyond the control of the party whose performance is interrupted or prevented by such strike or labor dispute, and the settlement of such strike or labor dispute shall be at the sole discretion of such party. Economic hardship, by itself, experienced by a party in carrying out its obligations hereunder shall not be deemed to be an event beyond the control of such party. Subject to the foregoing, a party claiming excuse by reason of a Force Majeure event shall exercise commercially reasonable good faith efforts to remedy or overcome such event as soon as practicable under all the circumstances. In the event that the parties are unable in good faith to agree that a Force Majeure event has occurred, the parties shall submit the dispute for arbitration pursuant to Article XVIII, and the burden of proof as to whether an event of Force Majeure has occurred shall be upon the party claiming an event of Force Majeure. 52 11.4 Termination for Force Majeure. If either party believes an event of Force Majeure which excuses performance of either party hereunder is likely to be permanent (i.e., it is likely to continue for a period exceeding one year), such party may notify the other party of such belief. Such notice shall state the reasons for the belief that the event of Force Majeure will be permanent and why there are no steps which can be taken at a commercially reasonable cost to eliminate such Force Majeure event. The party receiving such notice shall respond within ten days stating either (i) that it concurs that the Force Majeure event is likely to be permanent, or (ii) that it disagrees that such Force Majeure event is likely to be permanent and its reasons therefor. Unless otherwise mutually agreed, this Agreement shall be terminated if both parties concur that the Force Majeure event is likely to be permanent.

With respect to or arising out of any breach by a party of its 63 warranties, representations or covenants hereunder, such party shall indemnify and hold the other party and its successors, assigns, partners, employees, contractors, subcontractors and agents harmless from and against all damages, losses or expenses suffered or paid as a result of any and all claims, demands, suits, penalties, causes of action, proceedings, judgments, administrative and judicial orders and liabilities (including costs of defense, settlement and reasonable attorneys' fees) assessed, incurred or sustained by or against such other party and its successors, assigns, partners, employees, contractors, subcontractors and agents. 14.4 Effect of Indemnification. The indemnification provided for in this Article XIV shall not provide an alternative remedy for any deficiencies in the quality of coal delivered hereunder or for any liabilities, damage or losses which are expressly addressed in any other Article or Section of this Agreement; the remedies expressly provided for in such other Article or Section of this Agreement shall, to the extent applicable, govern the rights and obligations of the parties instead of the remedies provided for in this Article XIV. 14.5 Notice and Legal Defense. Promptly upon receipt by a party entitled to indemnification under this Article XIV (the "Indemnified Party") of any claim as to which such 64 indemnification may be applicable ("Claim"), the Indemnified Party shall notify the other party (the "Indemnifying Party") of such fact in writing with the details of such Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof with counsel of its choice, subject to the reasonable approval of the Indemnified Party. If the parties against whom the Claim is asserted include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from, additional to or inconsistent with, those available to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense of such Claim on behalf of such Indemnified Party, at the Indemnifying Party's expense. The Indemnified Party shall retain authority, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, to approve any and all communications with, and to prevent the submission of any documents to, any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Claim. 14.6 Failure to Defend Claim. Should the Indemnified Party be entitled to indemnification under this Article XIV as a result of a Claim by a third party, and should the Indemnifying Party fail to assume the defense of such Claim, having received notice as required by Section 14.5, the Indemnified Party may at 65 the expense of the Indemnifying Party contest (or, with the prior written consent of such Indemnifying Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, settle) such Claim; provided, that no such contest need be made, and settlement or full payment of any such Claim may be made upon seven days' prior written notice to but without consent of the Indemnifying Party (with such Indemnifying Party remaining obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party under this Article XIV) if, in the written opinion of the Indemnified Party's counsel, such Claim is meritorious. 14.7 Joint Cause. If any Claims for indemnity arising out of Section 14.1 or Section 14.2 are caused by joint and concurring acts or omissions of Seller and Keystone, the liability of Seller and Keystone therefor shall be apportioned according to their respective degrees of fault. 14.8 Survival. The provisions of this Article XIV shall survive the termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement, subject to applicable statutes of limitation. ARTICLE XV NOTICES 15.1 Notices.

ANKER ENERGY CORPORATION, as Seller By: /s/ John J. Faltis ------------------------------- KEYSTONE ENERGY SERVICE COMPANY, L.P. By: /s/ Joseph Kearney ------------------------------- 81 EXHIBIT A PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project is a conventional pulverized coal-fired electricity and steam generating plant with a net electrical output of 202 MW. The Project is comprised of a coal-fired steam generator producing 1,575,000 lbs/hr of superheated steam at nominal conditions of 2,500 psig, 1005F and reheat steam at nominal conditions of 1005F and a steam turbine generator with a gross electrical output of 235 MW. Exhaust gases exiting the boiler will pass through a dry scrubber to remove 93% of SOx emissions and through a baghouse to remove particulate matter. NOx emissions will be controlled by the combination of a low NOx combustion process and a selective non-catalytic reduction system which uses ammonia injection into the flue gas at a prescribed flue gas temperature. The superheated and reheated steam will be used to power a steam turbine generator with a single extraction point for process steam to Monsanto and seven stages of extraction for feedwater heating. Steam exhausting from the steam turbine will be condensed in a water-cooled condenser and returned to the boiler for reuse through the feedwater heating system. Water for make-up to the various plant systems will be drawn from the Delaware River and passed through filters, a reverse osmosis system and a demineralizer prior to use in the steam cycle. Heat removed from the condenser by the cooling water will be released to the atmosphere through an induced draft multi-cell cooling tower. Make-up water to the cooling tower to compensate for evaporation, draft and blowdown will come from the Delaware River. The cooling water will be chemically treated for pH, scale and biofouling control. Coal for the Project will be delivered by barge to the Project's unloading pier and unloaded by dock mounted unloading equipment. The coal will be delivered by conveyor to the enclosed active storage area or to the outdoor dead storage. The active storage area holds 10,000 tons (approximately 5 days at full load) and the dead storage holds 60,000 tons (an approximate 30-day supply at full load). Coal is retrieved from the active storage area using a scraper/reclaimer and routed onto a conveyor for delivery to the coal bunkers located in the boiler house. From here the coal is fed at a controlled rate into pulverizers, and then into the boiler for combustion. The ashes produced by the combustion process will be withdrawn from the bottom of the boiler by a drag chain for outdoor storage until removed off-site. Fly ash collected in the gas path hoppers and the baghouse will be pneumatically conveyed to a silo sized for three days' operation for storage until removed from the site by pneumatic tanker. Lime will be delivered by pneumatic tanker and stored on site in a silo sized for 7 days' operation. The lime will be slaked with water to a controlled concentration and then fed into the atomizers of the spray dryer absorber. The SOx removal is achieved by direct contact of the hot flue gases with the lime slurry. A waste water collection and treatment system will be installed to process all of the plant's waste water for reuse as demineralizer make-up or as a source for the lime slaker. The system will utilize a reverse osmosis process which will be sized to permit full operation during high salinity conditions in the Delaware River. Discharge to the Delaware River will be limited to storm water. Electricity generated by the Project will be transformed to 230 KV by the Project's step-up transformer and fed to the adjacent switching station installed by Atlantic City Electric. Electricity to Monsanto will be supplied through the service transformer at 13.2 KV. Steam will be supplied to Monsanto through a dedicated and monitored steam line. Other balance-of-plant systems which will be installed to support the operations will include an integrated distributed digital control and monitoring system, administration building housing the control room, warehouse and offices, a 430 foot concrete chimney, fire fighting system for the whole plant, auxiliary boiler to meet Monsanto's needs in the event of a shutdown and necessary support electrical and mechanical systems.

E-8 FIRST AMENDMENT TO COAL SUPPLY AGREEMENT THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO COAL SUPPLY AGREEMENT (the "First Amendment"), is entered into effective as of September 1, 1995, by and between ANKER ENERGY CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Seller"), and LOGAN GENERATING COMPANY, L.P. (formerly Keystone Energy Service Company, L.P.), a Delaware limited partnership ("Logan"). RECITALS WHEREAS, Seller and Logan entered into a certain Coal Supply Agreement, dated April 1, 1992 (the "Agreement"); and WHEREAS, the coal requirements for Logan's Facility are directly related to the amount of time the Facility is dispatched; and WHEREAS, Seller is willing to provide a lower delivered price of coal to Logan for a certain period of time and on other conditions hereinafter set forth; and WHEREAS, Seller and Logan wish to amend certain of the provisions of the Agreement. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Seller and Logan, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 1. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this First Amendment shall have the meaning for such term set forth in the Agreement; provided that anywhere "Keystone" is used in the Agreement shall mean "Logan" from and after the effective date of this First Amendment. 2. A. Logan and Seller have agreed to: (i) reconcile all matters related to the pricing and invoicings for all coal delivered under the Agreement from its beginning through and including September 30, 1995; (ii) the Base Price to be applied for all coal delivered under the Agreement for the period beginning September 1, 1995 and ending December 31, 1995; and (iii) the procedures to be applied for pricing and invoicing purposes for all coal deliveries under the Agreement for the period beginning January 1, 1996 and continuing thereafter. With respect to the reconciliation of all matters related to the pricing and invoicing for all coal delivered under the Agreement from its beginning through and including September 30, 1995, Logan and Seller agree that Logan owes Seller the additional sum of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00). Logan agrees to pay Seller such sum by certified check or by wire transfer of funds within 30 days after the final execution of this First Amendment; provided, that if Logan has not paid such sum within such time frame, then Seller, in addition to all of its other legal rights to collect such sum, may by written notice to Logan, sent anytime after the due date of such payment, elect that the pricing for all purchases of Specification Coal made on or after January 1, 1996 shall be determined in accordance with Section 7.1 of the Agreement rather than subparagraph A of numbered paragraph 9 of this First Amendment. Logan and Seller agree that such reconciliation shall operate as a complete settlement of all matters related to coal pricing for all coal deliveries under the Agreement from its beginning through and including September 30, 1995. Logan hereby releases Seller from any and all claims and demands for coal deliveries and pricing therefor during the stated period and once the payment to Seller as set forth above has been made in full, Seller releases Logan from 2 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. any and all claims and demands for any such matters for coal deliveries and pricing therefor during the stated period. B. As part of the parties' complete reconciliation of all matters under the Agreement related to the change in definition of "Operating Year" as set forth below, Logan and Seller agree that for all coal delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery from September 1, 1995 through and including December 31, 1995, the Base Price for coal with the quality defined as Semi-Monthly Average Contract Specifications in Section 6.2 of the Agreement shall be [_ _ _ _] per Ton, subject to premiums and penalties calculated at the rate of [_ _ _ _] for each [_ _ _ _], pro rata, over or under [_ _ _ _] of sulfur and at the rate of + or - [_ _ _ _] for each [_ _ _ _], pro rata, over or under [_ _ _ _] ash, for the weighted average sulfur and ash content for the subject Billing Period. In the event the CSX Transportation, Inc. ("CSXT") Guaranty Agreement, referred to in numbered paragraph 17 of this First Amendment is not terminated on or before March 29, 1996, then, notwithstanding the provisions of numbered paragraph 17 of this First Amendment, Logan agrees to pay Seller an additional [_ _ _ _] per Ton for each Ton of Specification Coal (as hereinafter defined) delivered by Seller, to the Point of Delivery under the Agreement, during the period beginning September 1, 1995 and ending December 31, 1995. 3. Effective as of January 1, 1996, the fifth Recital Clause of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language: "WHEREAS, Logan will sell electricity generated at the Facility to Atlantic City Electric Company ("Atlantic Electric" or "Power Purchaser") under an Agreement for Purchase of Electric Power dated as of August 25, 1988, as amended, and Logan will sell steam and electricity produced at the Facility to Monsanto Chemical Company ("Monsanto") under a Steam Supply 3 Agreement dated as of November 22, 1988, as amended, and the coal requirements will depend upon the quantity of steam and electricity purchased pursuant to those agreements; and". 4. Effective as of January 1, 1996, the definition of "GDP Deflator" in Section 1.5 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in its place: "GDP Deflator" means the preliminary (i.e., second published) Gross Domestic Product Implicit Price Deflator for a calendar quarter as currently published in the United States Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis publication entitled Survey of Current Business. The base index for the GDP Deflator shall be the fourth quarter of 1992 for all adjustment purposes hereunder. Adjustments to rates, fees, prices, premiums and penalties which are to be made annually based on the GDP Deflator shall be calculated as follows: the existing rate, fee, price, premium or penalty shall be increased or decreased as of January 1, of each year of the Term hereof commencing on January 1, 1996 by the percentage change in the index number of the GDP Deflator for the third calendar quarter of the year immediately preceding such January 1 from the index number of the GDP Deflator for the fourth quarter of 1992 (i.e., the index number of the GDP Deflator for the third quarter of 1995 shall be compared to the index number of the GDP Deflator for the fourth quarter of 1992 for January 1, 1996, adjustments). If the GDP Deflator ceases to exist or becomes unavailable, the parties shall agree to a substitute index that 4 reasonably measures inflation for all goods and services within the United States." 5. Effective as of January 1, 1996, the definition of "Operating Year" in Section 1.5 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in its place: "Operating Year" shall mean a Calendar Year (January 1 to December 31). 6. Effective as of January 1, 1996, the following definitions shall be added to Section 1.5 of the Agreement: "Specification Coal" shall have the meaning set forth in subparagraph A of numbered Paragraph 9 of the First Amendment to Coal Suppy Agreement. "Incentive Period" shall mean, as applicable, each six (6) month period of each calendar year beginning January 1, 1996, and beginning each July 1 and January 1 thereafter, during the period of time commencing January 1, 1996 and ending December 31, 1999. 7. Effective as of January 1, 1996, Section 2.1 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in its place: "2.1 Initial Term. This Agreement shall be effective from April 1, 1992 (the "Effective Date") and, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof, shall continue for an initial term which shall end on December 31, 2014 (the "Initial Term")." 8. A. Effective as of January 1, 1996, the first sentence of Section 5.3 of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following sentence: "Seller shall allow Logan Lay Time of one hour for each 5 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. 450 Tons of coal delivered." B. Effective as of January 1, 1996, the first sentence of Section 5.4 of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following sentence: "Demurrage at the rate of [_ _ _ _] per hour (as of January 1, 1993) shall accrue for all time that exceeds the allowable Lay Time provided herein." 9. A. Except as otherwise provided in subparagraph C of this paragraph 9 below, for the period commencing on January 1, 1996 and continuing through December 31, 1999, the Base Price for coal with the quality defined as Semi-monthly Average Contract Specifications in Section 6.2 of the Agreement ("Specification Coal") and delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery on and after January 1, 1996, shall be determined as follows: On or before January 1 and July 1 of each incentive Period, Logan shall provide Seller with Power Purchaser's annualized estimate of the quantity of Specification Coal to be delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery during the applicable Incentive Period. Except as otherwise provided m subparagraph C, below, the Base Price for Specification Coal for such Incentive Period shall be calculated pursuant to the formula: [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] 6 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. [_ _ _ _] [_ _ _ _] Calculation examples for the above formula are set forth on an Exhibit labeled, "Incentive Period Pricing" attached hereto as a part hereof. B. In the event that for the period commencing on January 1, 1996 and continuing through December 31, 1999, Logan purchases less than [_ _ _ _] Tons of coal from Seller in any calendar year, then, in addition to the Base Price paid by Logan pursuant to subparagraph A above, Logan shall pay to Seller an amount equal to [_ _ _ _] per Ton for all "shortfall tons". For purposes of this First Amendment, "shortfalls tons" shall mean the difference between [_ _ _ _] Tons and the Tons of coal actually purchased by Logan from Seller during any such calendar year; but reduced to the extent such shortfall is a result of suspension or rejection of deliveries pursuant to Sections 6.3, 6.4 or 6.6(a) of the Agreement, an event of Force Majeure (which does not include outages resulting from economic dispatch or any planned outages), the or termination of the Agreement in accordance with its terms; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that during the period commencing on January 1, 1996 and continuing through December 31, 1999, any such [_ _ _ _] per Ton payment for shortfall tons shall be in lieu of and not in addition to the Dedication Fee set forth in Section 7.1 of the Agreement. 7 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. C. If during any Incentive Period, Logan fails to purchase at least [_ _ _ _] of the Power Purchaser's estimate of the quantity of Specification Coal to be delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery for such Incentive Period, then Seller, by written notice to Logan delivered within [_ _ _ _] days following the end of such period, may elect that, commencing on the first day following the end of the Incentive Period in which Logan fails to purchase at least [_ _ _ _] of the Power Purchaser's estimate of the quantity of Specification Coal to be delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery during such Incentive Period, the pricing for all subsequent purchases of Specification Coal shall be determined in accordance with Section 7.1 of the Agreement rather than subparagraph A of this paragraph 9 above. D. If Seller elects under subparagraph C of this paragraph 9 to have the Base Price determined pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Agreement, then for the period beginning on the date that the Base Price begins to be determined pursuant to Section 7.1 through December 31, 1999, if the total cost of transportation paid by Seller to CSXT pursuant to any Amendment to the April 10, 1992 Rail Transportation Contract between Seller and CSXT ("Base Rail Contract") to deliver Specification Coal purchased by Logan from Seller to the Point of Delivery during any Operating Year is less than the total transportation cost that would have been incurred under the Base Rail Contract, then Seller and Logan shall share any such savings equally. E. In the event that for any calendar year for which the Base Price is determined in accordance with subparagraph A of this paragraph 9 for the period beginning September 1, 1995 and ending December 31, 1995, as provided below, Logan earns and is paid a Dispatch Incentive pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 2 of Exhibit C to Amendment No. 009 to Agreement for Purchase of Electric Power, dated as June 9, 1993, between Power Purchaser and Logan, within [_ _ _ _] days of the receipt of the final installment of the Dispatch Incentive 8 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. payment for such year from the Power Purchaser, Logan shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the sum of the Annual Dispatch Incentives shown in the table below that corresponds to the level that the Facility was actually dispatched by Power Purchaser during such calendar year:

provided, that in no event shall Logan be required to pay Seller in excess of [_ _ _ _] in any calendar year pursuant to this subparagraph E; provided, further, that for the period commencing on September 1, 1995 and ending December 31, 1995, Logan shall pay to Seller an amount equal to [_ _ _ _] of the sum of the Annual Dispatch Incentives shown on the table above that correspond to the level that the Facility was actually dispatched by Power Purchaser during calendar year 1995 up to a [_ _ _ _]. 9 In the event that during the period that the Incentive Period Pricing is in effect under numbered paragraph 9, of the First Amendment the terms of Paragraph 2 of Exhibit C to Amendment No. 009 to Agreement for Purchase of Electric Power, dated as of June 9, 1993, between Power Purchaser and Logan are amended in a manner that adversely affects the payments, if any, to be made to Seller in accordance with subparagraph E of this paragraph 9, then Seller, by written notice to Logan, may elect that the pricing for all purchases of Specification Coal made on or after the effective date of such amendment to Paragraph 2 of Exhibit C to Amendment No. 009 to Agreement for Purchase of Electric Power shall be determined in accordance with Section 7.1 of the Agreement rather than subparagraph A of this paragraph 9 above. F. Logan shall maintain complete and accurate records to support any Dispatch Incentive it earns and is paid, as referenced in subparagraph E of this paragraph 9 above, during any time the Base Price is determined in accordance with subparagraph A of this paragraph 9 above. Seller shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice, to inspect and review at Logan's offices any such records at any reasonable time for the purpose of verifying the correctness of any information related to any such Dispatch Incentive earned by Logan. 10. Effective as of January 1, 1996, Section 7.3 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in its place: "7.3 Base Escalator. For purposes of this Agreement, the "Base Escalator" shall be the cost of coal as defined by the annual average cost of "bituminous coal" used by New Jersey utilities, on a tonnage-weighted basis, as reported on FERC Form 423, (in dollars per ton) where "bituminous coal" shall have the definition set forth in Section 7.5 of this Agreement. The first Base Escalator adjustment shall occur in 1994. The value of the Base Escalator 10 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. established for a calendar year will be applied to all coal delivered during that calendar year. The base value of the Base Escalator is the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by New Jersey utilities during calendar year [_ _ _ _]. Adjustments to prices which are to be made annually based on the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by New Jersey utilities shall be calculated as follows: The Base Coal Price shall be increased or decreased as of January 1 of each year of the term hereof commencing on January 1, 1996 by the percentage change in the index number of the weighted annual average cost of bituminous coal used by New Jersey utilities as reported on FERC Form 423 for the twelve (12) month period (September 1 to August 31) ending four (4) months prior to the year to be adjusted, compared to such index number for calendar year 1992 (i.e., the percentage change from the September 1, 1994 to August 31, 1995 weighted annual average cost compared to the calendar year 1992 weighted annual average cost shall be used for the January 1, 1996 adjustments). If New Jersey utilities discontinue the development of the data providing the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by New Jersey utilities, the parties shall agree to a substitute index or other set of data that would most closely approximate the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by New Jersey utilities. If after thirty (30) days of negotiations the parties are unable to agree on a new basis for providing a reasonable escalation, either party may submit such matter to arbitration pursuant to Article XVIII and the arbitrator shall be directed to develop a 100% bituminous coal (as defined in Section 7.5) based escalator comparable to such escalators used by utilities in the New Jersey region for coal fired power plants or if that is not possible due to the unavailability of supporting data, an escalator that the arbitrator determines 11 would most closely approximate the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by New Jersey utilities."

SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE COAL SUPPLY AGREEMENT This Second Amendment to the Coal Supply Agreement (the "Second Amendment"), is entered into effective March 15, 2002, by and between Anker Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Anker"), and Logan Generating Company, L.P. (formerly Keystone Energy Service Company, L.P.), a Delaware limited partnership ("Logan"). In consideration of the mutual promises of the parties contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows: 1. New Escalator Provisions. Anker and Logan hereby agree that, effective on the date this Agreement is entered into, the following provisions of the Coal Supply Agreement dated April 1, 1992, by and between Anker and Logan (the "Agreement"), as amended, shall be amended, as follows. (a) Section 7.1 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in its place: "7.1 Base Price. The Base Price for coal with the quality defined as Semi-Monthly Average Contract Specifications in Section 6.2 and delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery is [_ _ _ _] per Ton, effective March 16, 2002, for annual quantities of [_ _ _ _], and [_ _ _ _] per Ton, effective March 16, 2002, for annual quantities [_ _ _ _] Tons. For annual quantities between [_ _ _ _] Tons, the Base Price for Coal shall be an amount per Ton determined by linear interpolation between [_ _ _ _], effective March 16, 2002. For annual quantities between [_ _ _ _] and [_ _ _ _] Tons, the Base Price for coal shall be an amount per Ton determined by linear interpolation between [_ _ _ _], effective March 16, 2002. Commencing with the first full Operating Year and continuing with each Operating Year thereafter, for annual quantities less than [_ _ _ _] Tons, Keystone shall pay Seller a dedication fee (the "Dedication Fee") for each Ton of the shortfall amount, unless such shortfall is a result of suspension or rejection of deliveries pursuant to Sections 6.3, 6.4 or 6.6(a), an event of Force Majeure, or termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. Effective as of January 1, 1993, the Dedication Fee shall be [_ _ _ _] per Ton of the shortfall amount and shall be escalated each calendar year thereafter by the GDP Deflator, provided however, that such escalation shall not be more than [_ _ _ _] per year and any excess shall not be reflected in the price adjustment in any succeeding year." (b) Section 7.3 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in its place: "7.3 Base Escalator. For purposes of this Agreement, the "Base Escalator" shall be the cost of coal as defined by the annual average cost of "bituminous coal" used by the coal-fired plants identified on Exhibit F, on a tonnage-weighted basis, as reported on FERC Form 423, (in dollars per ton) where "bituminous coal" shall have the definition set forth in Section 7.5 of this Agreement. The value of the Base Escalator established for a calendar year will be applied to all coal delivered during that calendar year. The base value of the Base Escalator is the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by the coal-fired plants identified on Exhibit F during the twelve month period from September 1, 2000 through August 31, 2001 [_ _ _ _]. Adjustments to prices which are to be made annually based on the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by the coal-fired plants identified on Exhibit F shall be calculated as follows: The Base Price for coal shall be increased or decreased as of January 1 of each year of the term hereof commencing on January 1, 2003 by the percentage change in the index number of the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by the coal-fired plants identified on Exhibit F as reported on FERC Form 423 for the twelve (12) month period (September 1 to August 31) ending four (4) months prior to the year to be adjusted, compared to such index number for the twelve (12) month period from September 1, 2000 through August 31, 2001 (e.g., the percentage change from the September 1, 2001 to August 31, 2002 weighted annual average cost compared to the weighted annual average cost for the period September 1, 2000 through August 31, 2001 shall be used for January 1, 2003 adjustments). If plants among those identified on Exhibit F discontinue the reporting of bituminous coal costs on FERC Form 423, such that for any one year period (September 1 through August 31) the total volume of bituminous coal reported on FERC Form 423 by the plants identified in Exhibit F is less than [_ _ _ _] of the total volume reported by those plants during the period from September 1, 2000 through August 31, 2001 (i.e., [_ _ _ _] tons), the parties shall agree to a substitute index or other set of data to calculate the Base Escalator beginning in the next contract year. If after thirty (30) days of negotiations the parties are unable to agree on a new basis for providing a reasonable escalation, either party may submit such matter to arbitration pursuant to Article XVIII and the arbitrator shall be directed to develop a reasonable 100% bituminous coal (as defined in Section 7.5) based escalator. (c) Section 7.4 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety. (d) Section 7.5 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in its place: "7.5 Bituminous Coal. The annual average cost of bituminous coal (for purposes of the Base Escalator) shall be based on the Form 423 reports filed with FERC by the coal-fired plants identified in Exhibit F reporting the annual average cost of bituminous coal used by such plants. For purposes of this Agreement "bituminous coal" shall mean bituminous coal with the following quality specifications:
Bituminous Coal Parameter As Received Ranges - ------------------------- ------------------ ~~Heating Value, Btu/Lb [_ _ _ _] Ash Content, % [_ _ _ _] Sulfur Content, % [_ _ _ _] Mine Source (States) Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Kentucky~~
2 (e) Exhibit F shall be added to the Coal Supply Agreement, in the form of Exhibit F attached to this Second Amendment. 2. The parties may execute this Second Amendment in counterparts, which shall, in the aggregate, when signed by both parties constitute one and the same instrument. Each counterpart shall be deemed an original as against any party that has executed that counterpart. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Second Amendment to be executed by their duly authorized representatives on the dates set forth below.

EXECUTION COPY THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE COAL SUPPLY AGREEMENT This Third Amendment to the Coal Supply Agreement (the "Third Amendment"), is entered into effective October 1, 2004, by and between Anker Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Anker"), and Logan Generating Company, L.P. (formerly Keystone Energy Service Company, L.P.), a Delaware limited partnership ("Logan"). In consideration of the mutual promises of the parties contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows: 1. Quarterly Escalation. Anker and Logan hereby agree that, effective on the date this Third Amendment is entered into, the following provisions of the Coal Supply Agreement dated April 1,1992, by and between Anker and Logan (the "Agreement"), as amended, shall be further amended, as follows. (a) Section 7.2 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in its place: "7.2 Escalation of Base Price. From January 1, 1993 through September 30, 2004, the Base Price for Coal delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery shall be adjusted on an annual basis, and from October 1, 2004 through the expiration of the Initial Term or any Extended Term of this Agreement the Base Price for Coal delivered by Seller to the Point of Delivery shall be adjusted on a quarterly basis (effective January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each calendar year), by the Base Escalator pursuant to Section 7.3 or, if applicable, the New Base Escalator or other escalator determined pursuant to Section 7.6." (b) Section 7.3 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in its place: "7.3 Base Escalator. For purposes of this Agreement, the "Base Escalator" shall be the cost of coal as defined by the annual average cost of "bituminous coal" used by the coal-fired plants identified on Exhibit F, on a tonnage-weighted basis, as reported on FERC Form 423, (in dollars per ton) where "bituminous coal" shall have the definition set forth in Section 7.5 of this Agreement. The value of the Base Escalator established for a calendar year will be applied to all coal delivered during that calendar year; provided, however, that for periods from October 1, 2004, the value of the Base Escalator established for a quarter will be applied to all coal delivered during that quarter. The base value of the Base Escalator is the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by the coal-fired plants identified on Exhibit F during the twelve month period from September 1, 2000 through August 31, 2001 [_ _ _ _]. Adjustments to prices which are to be made annually or quarterly based on the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by the coal-fired plants identified on Exhibit F shall be calculated as follows: "The Base Price for coal shall be increased or decreased as of January 1 of each year of the term hereof commencing on January 1, 2003, and shall be increased or decreased as of each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year commencing with October 1, 2004, by the 1 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

EXECUTION COPY percentage change in the index number of the weighted average cost of bituminous coal used by the coal-fired plants identified on Exhibit F as reported on FERC Form 423 for the twelve (12) month period ending four (4) months prior to the period to be adjusted, compared to such index number for the twelve (12) month period from September 1, 2000 through August 31, 2001 (e.g., the percentage change from the September 1, 2001 to August 31, 2002 weighted annual average cost compared to the weighted annual average cost for the period September 1, 2000 through August 31, 2001 shall be used for January 1, 2003 adjustments; the percentage change from the September 1, 2001 to August 31, 2002 weighted annual average cost compared to the weighted annual average cost for the period June 1, 2003 through May 31, 2004 shall be used for the quarter commencing October 1, 2004). "If plants among those identified on Exhibit F discontinue the reporting of bituminous coal costs on FERC Form 423, such that for any one year period (September 1 through August 31) the total volume of bituminous coal reported on FERC Form 423 by the plants identified in Exhibit F is less than [_ _ _ _]) of the total volume reported by those plants during the period from October 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004 (i.e., [_ _ _ _] tons), the parties shall agree to a substitute index or other set of data to calculate the Base Escalator beginning in the next contract year. If after thirty (30) days of negotiations the parties are unable to agree on a new basis for providing a reasonable escalation, either party may submit such matter to arbitration pursuant to Article XVIII and the arbitrator shall be directed to develop a reasonable 100% bituminous coal (as defined in Section 7.5) based escalator." 2. Coal Requirements. (a) The following provision shall be added to the Agreement and inserted as Section 4.8. "4.8 Reduction/Release of Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Logan will be released from its obligations to purchase its full coal requirements from Seller, and Seller will be released from its obligations to supply coal to Logan, on the basis set forth in this Section 4.8. Logan may reduce its obligation to purchase coal from Seller for a time by providing Seller with written notification of such reduction, including the number of tons by which Logan's obligation will be reduced during that period and the calendar term during which Logan will be excused from its full coal requirements obligation, which term shall be for a period of at least one year unless otherwise agreed by Seller; provided that the term of reduced obligation may not begin less than 90 days after written notification is provided by Logan unless otherwise agreed by Seller. Except during the term of and to the extent of any reduced obligation as provided in this Section 4.8, Seller will continue its obligation to reserve and supply, and Logan will continue its obligation to take, up to Logan's full coal requirements for the term of this Agreement. If in each of two consecutive years or more Logan reduces its obligation to purchase coal from Seller below sixty percent (60%) of its total annual requirements, then for the remainder of the term of this Agreement, Seller will be released from the annual obligation to supply the number of tons of coal by which Logan reduced its obligation during each of those two years, and will be released from the obligation to reserve the number of tons of coal by which Logan reduced its obligation during each of those two years multiplied by the number of years remaining in the term of this Agreement. If in each of three consecutive years Logan reduces its obligation to purchase less than all of its coal requirements from Seller, then Seller shall be released from its annual obligation to supply the number of tons of coal by 2 * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

EXECUTION COPY COAL PRICE ADJUSTMENT AGREEMENT This Coal Price Adjustment Agreement (the "Agreement"), is entered into effective October 1, 2004, by and between Anker Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Anker"), and Logan Generating Company, L.P. (formerly Keystone Energy Service Company, L.P.), a Delaware limited partnership ("Logan"). In consideration of the mutual promises of the parties contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree to supplement the price paid for coal delivered under the Coal Supply Agreement dated April 1,1992, by and between Anker and Logan (the "CSA"), as amended, according to the following terms: 1. Term. This Agreement will remain in effect during the Initial Term and any Extension Periods permitted according to the provisions hereof, unless terminated according to paragraphs 3 or 4 hereof. The Initial Term of this Agreement will be October 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004. The Term may be extended for additional three month periods ("Extension Periods") pursuant to the options available to Anker, as described in paragraph 3 hereof. 2. Performance Payments. During each month of the Term, a Performance Payment will be available to Anker in an amount equal to [_ _ _ _], after giving effect to the provisions of the Third Amendment to the Coal Supply Agreement providing for quarterly adjustment of the Base Escalator. The Performance Payment available to Anker will be payable to Anker after the end of each month if Anker has fully performed its obligations for that month in accordance with the terms of the CSA and this Agreement. In any month in which Anker has not fully performed its obligations under the CSA and this Agreement, the Performance Payment otherwise available under the terms of this Agreement will be forfeited. 3. Renewable Options. At the conclusion of the Initial Term and each Extension Period thereafter, Anker will be granted an option to renew the availability of Performance Payments for an additional three-month period if Anker has fully performed its obligations in accordance with the terms of the CSA and this Agreement during the most recent three-month period, but not otherwise. To the extent the option is otherwise available, Anker shall be deemed to automatically exercise each option to renew the availability of Performance Payments for an Extension Period unless Anker affirmatively notifies Logan in writing to the contrary at least 5 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Extension Period. If during the Initial Term or any Extension Period Anker has failed to fully perform its obligations under the terms of the CSA and this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be renewable; provided, however, that Anker shall have the option to renew the availability of Performance Payments for an additional three-month period if such failure to make full performance of the CSA or this Agreement is excused by Force Majeure (as defined in Sections 11.1 through 11.3 of the CSA); and further provided, however, that if a continuation of Force Majeure based on the same events or conditions shall exceed 90 days, this Agreement may be terminated by Logan. * CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. BRACKETS AND UNDERSCORES DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS. EXECUTION COPY 4. Termination. The Price Adjustment Agreement may be terminated by either party upon any of the following occurrences: (a) the failure by Anker to perform under or to exercise (for any reason) an option to renew the terms of this Agreement as stated above; (b) the date upon which the Base Price for coal under the CSA for any period (as calculated without the Performance Payment) equals or exceeds the sum of [_ _ _ _]; or (c) the Base Escalator index under the CSA decreases for two quarters. 5. Miscellaneous Provisions. (a) Each of the parties represents and warrants that the undersigned representative is duly authorized to enter into this Agreement and bind that party with respect to the terms hereof. (b) This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented, modified or extended except by an instrument in writing signed by both of the parties hereto. Any failure by either party to enforce any provisions hereof shall not constitute a waiver by that party of its right subsequently to enforce the same or any other provision hereof. (c) For purposes of any calculations required under this Agreement, amounts per ton shall be rounded to the nearest one-tenth of one cent, and all other amounts shall be rounded to the nearest fourth place after the decimal, provided; however, that the amount of any Performance Payment available and/or payable in any month pursuant to Section 2 shall be rounded to the nearest cent. (d) This Agreement will be governed and interpreted according to the laws of the state of New Jersey, without giving effect to any conflict of law principles. (e) The parties both acknowledge that they have jointly participated in the preparation of this Agreement, and its terms shall be interpreted without regard to which of the parties drafted the Agreement or any of its provisions. (f) The parties may execute this Agreement in counterparts, which shall together constitute a single document, and each counterpart shall be deemed an original and enforceable against the party who signed it.
