Schedule A hereto
Ladies and Gentlemen:
     This Second Supplement to Note Purchase Agreements (the “Supplement”) is among NRP (Operating) LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and the institutional investors named on Schedule A attached hereto (the “Purchasers”).
     Reference is hereby made to the separate and several Note Purchase Agreements each dated as of June 19, 2003, as amended from time to time (the “Note Purchase Agreements”) between the Company and the respective purchasers listed on Schedule A thereto. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as specified in the Note Purchase Agreements. Reference is further made to Section 4.13 of the Note Purchase Agreements which requires that, prior to the delivery of any Additional Notes, the Company and each Additional Purchaser shall execute and deliver a Supplement.
     The Company hereby agrees with the Purchasers as follows:
     1. Authorization of Notes. The Company has authorized the issue and sale of $225,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 5.82% Series E Senior Notes due March 28, 2024 (the “Series E Notes”). The Series E Notes, together with the Notes previously issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreements and each series of Additional Notes which may from time to time hereafter be issued pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2 of the Note Purchase Agreements, are collectively referred to as the “Notes(such term shall also include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13 of the Note Purchase Agreements). The Series E Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1 hereto with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by the Purchaser(s) and the Company.
     2. Sale and Purchase of Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and as set forth in the Note Purchase Agreements and on the basis of the representations and warranties hereinafter set forth, the Company agrees to issue and sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company, Series E Notes in the principal amount set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Schedule A hereto at a price of 100% of the principal amount thereof on the closing date hereafter mentioned.
     3. Closing. The sale and purchase of the Series E Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser shall occur at the offices of Chapman and Cutler LLP, 111 West Monroe Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, at 10:00 a.m. Chicago time, at a closing (the “Closing”) on March 28,

 


 

NRP (Operating) LLC   Second Supplement
2007 or, on such other Business Day thereafter on or prior to March 30, 2007, as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Purchasers. At the Closing, the Company will deliver to each Purchaser the Series E Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser in the form of a single Series E Note (or such greater number of Series E Notes in denominations of at least $250,000 as such Purchaser may request) dated the date of the Closing and registered in such Purchaser’s name (or in the name of such Purchaser’s nominee), against delivery by such Purchaser to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for the account of the Company to account number 01561106604 at The Huntington National Bank, 919 Fifth Avenue, Huntington, West Virginia 25701, ABA Number ###-###-####. If at the Closing the Company shall fail to tender such Series E Notes to any Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to any Purchaser’s satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at such Purchaser’s election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Supplement, without thereby waiving any rights such Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.
     4. Conditions to Closing. The obligation of each Purchaser to purchase and pay for the Series E Notes to be sold to such Purchaser at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment to such Purchaser’s satisfaction, prior to such Closing, of the conditions set forth in Section 4 of the Note Purchase Agreements (but adjusted to reflect the Series E Notes to be purchased at such Closing), except that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreements and Section 5 of the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be modified as set forth in Exhibit A hereto.
     5. Required Prepayments. The Company will prepay the Series E Notes on the dates and in the principal amounts as set forth on Schedule 5 attached hereto at par and without payment of the Make-Whole Amount or any premium, provided that upon any partial prepayment of the Series E Notes pursuant to Section 6 or Section 7 of this Supplement, the principal amount of each required prepayment of the Series E Notes becoming due under this Section 5 of this Supplement on and after the date of such prepayment or purchase shall be reduced in the same proportion as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Series E Notes is reduced as a result of such prepayment or purchase.
     6. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount. The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time after the Closing all, or from time to time any part of, the Series E Notes, in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000, in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, plus the applicable Make-Whole Amount with respect to the Series E Notes determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount. The Company will give each holder of Series E Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 6 of this Supplement not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the Series E Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Series E Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8 of this Supplement), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-

NRP (Operating) LLC   Second Supplement
Whole Amount with respect to the Series E Notes due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Series E Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.
     7. Change in Control.
     (a) Notice of Change in Control or Control Event. The Company will, within five (5) Business Days after any Responsible Officer has knowledge of the occurrence of any Change in Control or Control Event, give written notice (the “Change of Control Notice”) of such Change in Control or Control Event to each holder of Series E Notes unless notice in respect of such Change in Control (or the Change of Control contemplated by such Control Event) shall have been given pursuant to subparagraph (c) of this Section 7 of this Supplement. Such Change of Control Notice shall contain and constitute an offer to prepay the Series E Notes as described in Section 7(c) of this Supplement and shall be accompanied by the certificate described in Section 7(g) of this Supplement.
     (b) Condition to Company Action. The Company will not take any action that consummates or finalizes a Change in Control unless (i) at least 30 days prior to such action it shall have given to each holder of Series E Notes written notice containing and constituting an offer to prepay the Series E Notes as described in subparagraph (c) of this Section 7 of this Supplement, accompanied by the certificate described in subparagraph (g) of this Section 7 of this Supplement, and (ii) contemporaneously with such action, it prepays all Series E Notes required to be prepaid in accordance with this Section 7 of this Supplement.
     (c) Offer to Prepay Notes. The offer to prepay Series E Notes contemplated by paragraph (a) and (b) of this Section 7 of this Supplement shall be an offer to prepay, in accordance with and subject to this Section 7 of this Supplement, all, but not less than all, the Series E Notes held by each holder (in this case only, “holder” in respect of any Series E Note registered in the name of a nominee for a disclosed beneficial owner shall mean such beneficial owner) on a date specified in such Change of Control Notice (the “Proposed Prepayment Date”). If such Proposed Prepayment Date is in connection with an offer contemplated by subparagraph (a) of this Section 7 of this Supplement, such date shall be not less than 30 days and not more than 120 days after the date of such offer (if the Proposed Prepayment Date shall not be specified in such offer, the Proposed Prepayment Date shall be the first Business Day after the 45th day after the date of such offer).
     (d) Acceptance. A holder of Series E Notes may accept the offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 7 of this Supplement by causing a notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Company not later than 15 days after receipt by such holder of the most recent offer of prepayment. A failure by a holder of Series E Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 7 of this Supplement shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder.

     (e) Prepayment. Prepayment of the Series E Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 7 of this Supplement shall be at 100% of the principal amount of the Series E Notes together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The prepayment shall be made on the Proposed Prepayment Date except as provided in subparagraph (f) of this Section 7 of this Supplement.
     (f) Deferral Pending Change in Control. The obligation of the Company to prepay Notes pursuant to the offers required by subparagraph (c) and accepted in accordance with subparagraph (d) of this Section 7 of this Supplement is subject to the occurrence of the Change in Control in respect of which such offers and acceptances shall have been made. In the event that such Change in Control has not occurred on the Proposed Prepayment Date in respect thereof, the prepayment shall be deferred until, and shall be made on, the date on which such Change in Control occurs. The Company shall keep each holder of Series E Notes reasonably and timely informed of (i) any such deferral of the date of prepayment, (ii) the date on which such Change in Control and the prepayment are expected to occur, and (iii) any determination by the Company that efforts to effect such Change in Control have ceased or been abandoned (in which case the offers and acceptances made pursuant to this Section 7 of this Supplement in respect of such Change in Control shall be deemed rescinded).
     (g) Officer’s Certificate. Each offer to prepay the Series E Notes pursuant to this Section 7 of this Supplement shall be accompanied by a certificate, executed by the Senior Financial Officer of the Company and dated the date of such offer, specifying: (i) the Proposed Prepayment Date; (ii) that such offer is made pursuant to this Section 7 of this Supplement; (iii) the principal amount of each Series E Note offered to be prepaid (which shall be 100% of each such Series E Note); (iv) the interest that would be due on each Series E Note offered to be prepaid, accrued to the Proposed Prepayment Date; (v) that the conditions of this Section 7 of this Supplement have been fulfilled; and (vi) in reasonable detail, the nature and date or proposed date of the Change in Control.
     (h) Certain Definitions. “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if
     (i) the Parent ceases to own directly all of the membership interests of the Company,
     (ii) the General Partner ceases to own directly all of the general partner interests of the Parent, or
     (iii) Corbin J. Robertson, Jr., the WPP Group, NRP Investment L.P. and/or one or more of their direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries cease to own, in the aggregate, more than 50% of the partnership interests of the General Partner.
     “Control Event” means (i) the execution by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates of any agreement or letter of intent with respect to any proposed transaction or event or series of transactions or events which, individually or in the aggregate, may reasonably be expected to result in a Change in Control, or

     (ii) the execution of any written agreement which, when fully performed by the parties thereto, would result in a Change in Control.
     (i) All calculations contemplated in this Section 7 of this Supplement involving the capital stock, limited liability company or other equity interest of any Person shall be made with the assumption that all convertible securities of such Person then outstanding and all convertible securities issuable upon the exercise of any warrants, options and other rights outstanding at such time were converted at such time and that all options, warrants and similar rights to acquire shares of capital stock or limited liability company or other equity interest of such Person were exercised at such time.
     8. Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Series E Notes pursuant to Section 5 of this Supplement, the principal amount of the Series E Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Series E Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Series E Notes pursuant to Section 6 of this Supplement, the principal amount of the Series E Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Series E Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.
     9. Maturity; Surrender, Etc. In the case of each prepayment of Series E Notes pursuant to Sections 5, 6 or 7 of this Supplement, the principal amount of each Series E Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Series E Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Series E Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Series E Note.
     10. Purchase of Notes. The Company will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Series E Notes except upon the payment or prepayment of the Series E Notes in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreements, this Supplement and the Series E Notes. The Company will promptly cancel all Series E Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Series E Notes pursuant to any provision of the Note Purchase Agreements or this Supplement and no Series E Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Series E Notes.
     11. Make-Whole Amount. The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Series E Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Series E Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

-5-


 

NRP (Operating) LLC   Second Supplement
     “Called Principal” means, with respect to any Series E Note, the principal of such Series E Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 6 of this Supplement or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Note Purchase Agreements, as the context requires.
     “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series E Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Series E Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.
     “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series E Note, .50% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” of the Bloomberg Financial Markets Services Screen (or, if not available, any other national recognized trading screen reporting on-line intraday trading in the U.S. Treasury securities) for actively on-the-run traded U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such series of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable, the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. Such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Average Life.
     “Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.
     “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series E Note, all payments of such Called Principal of such series and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal

-6-


 

NRP (Operating) LLC   Second Supplement
if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Series E Notes of such series, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 6 of this Supplement or Section 12.1 of the Note Purchase Agreements.
     “Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series E Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 6 of this Supplement or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Note Purchase Agreements, as the context requires.

     (b) the Source is a separate account that is maintained solely in connection with such Purchaser’s fixed contractual obligations under which the amounts payable, or credited, to any employee benefit plan (or its related trust) that has any interest in such separate account (or to any participant or beneficiary of such plan (including any annuitant)) are not affected in any manner by the investment performance of the separate account; or
     (c) the Source is either (i) an insurance company pooled separate account, within the meaning of PTE 90-1 or (ii) a bank collective investment fund, within the meaning of the PTE 91-38 and, except as disclosed by such Purchaser to the Company in writing pursuant to this clause (c), no employee benefit plan or group of plans maintained

Supplemental Representations
     The Company represents and warrants to each Purchaser that except as hereinafter set forth in this Exhibit A, each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreements is true and correct as of the date hereof with respect to the Series E Notes with the same force and effect as if each reference to “Series A, B or C Notes” set forth therein was modified to refer the “Series E Notes” and each reference to “this Agreement” therein was modified to refer to the Note Purchase Agreements as supplemented by the First Supplement dated July 19, 2005 and by the Second Supplement (the First Supplement and the Second Supplement being referred to, collectively, as the “Supplements”). The Section references hereinafter set forth correspond to the similar sections of the Note Purchase Agreements which are supplemented hereby:
     Section 5.3. Disclosure. The Company, through its agent, SPP Capital Partners, LLC and BB&T Capital Markets Inc., has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of a Confidential Direct Private Placement Memorandum dated February 2007 (the “Memorandum”), relating to the transactions contemplated by the Second Supplement. The Note Purchase Agreements, the Memorandum, the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to each Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreements and the Second Supplement and the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 to the Second Supplement, taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. Since December 31, 2006, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary except changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
     Section 5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries. (a) Schedule 5.4 to the Second Supplement contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists of the Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary.
     Section 5.13. Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Series E Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers and not more than 50 other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Series E Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act.
     Section 5.14. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Company will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Series E Notes as set forth in Section I.C. (Transaction Summary) of the Memorandum. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Series E Notes pursuant to the Second Supplement will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Exhibit A
(to Supplement)

 


 

Reserve System (12 CFR 222), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such circumstances as to involve the Company in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). Margin stock does not constitute more than 1.00% of the value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin stock will constitute more than 1.00% of the value of such assets. As used in this Section, the terms “margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U.
     Section 5.15. Existing Debt; Future Liens. (a) Schedule 5.15 to the Second Supplement sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Debt of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 since which date there has been no Material change in the amounts, interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or maturities of the Debt of the Company or the Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Debt of the Company or such Subsidiary and no event or condition exists with respect to any Debt of the Company or any Subsidiary that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Debt to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.
     Section 5.16. Foreign Assets Control Regulations, Etc. (a) Neither the sale of the Series E Notes by the Company hereunder nor its use of the proceeds thereof will violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto.
     (b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary (i) is a Person described or designated in the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List of the Office of Foreign Assets Control or in Section 1 of the Anti-Terrorism Order or (ii) engages in any dealings or transactions with any such Person. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance, in all material respects, with the USA Patriot Act.
     (c) No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Series E Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, assuming in all cases that such Act applies to the Company.
     As used in this Section 5.16, “Anti-Terrorism Order” means Executive Order No. 13,224 of September 24, 2001, Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit or Support Terrorism, 66 U.S. Fed. Reg. 49, 079 (2001), as amended; and “USA Patriot Act” means United States Public Law 107-56, Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of 2001, as amended from time to time, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder from time to time in effect.
