Attention: President

and

TECO Diversified, Inc.

702 North Franklin Street

Tampa, Florida 33602

Attention: General Counsel

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter agreement sets forth the commitment of James H. Booth (the “Investor”), subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, to provide, directly or indirectly, certain funds to Cambrian Coal Corporation, a Kentucky corporation (“Purchaser”) for Purchaser to fund a portion of the Closing Consideration or certain other payment obligations.  It is contemplated that, pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 17, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “SPA”), by and between TECO Diversified, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Seller”), and Purchaser, Seller will sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser will buy from Seller, all of the membership interests of TECO Coal LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (the “Transaction”).   Capitalized terms used in this letter agreement and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the SPA.

13.Equity Commitment for the Closing Consideration.

(a)This letter agreement confirms the commitment of the Investor to, at or immediately prior to the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, pay, or cause to be paid, to Purchaser in immediately available funds an aggregate amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00) (the “Equity Commitment”), in the form of equity capital (whether by a capital contribution, a purchase of common stock or preferred stock or such other form of equity capital as determined by the Investor), which will be used by Purchaser solely for the purpose of funding, to the extent necessary to fund, a portion of the Closing Consideration required to be paid by Purchaser to consummate the Transaction pursuant to and in accordance with the SPA, together with related fees and expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with the Transaction; provided, however, that the Investor shall not, under any circumstances, be obligated to contribute to, purchase equity or debt of, or otherwise provide funds to Purchaser in any amount in excess of the Equity Commitment.  The Investor may affect the Equity Commitment directly or indirectly through one or more affiliated entities but the Investor will

2

909023.04-CHISR01A - MSW

not be relieved from any liability hereunder in the event such entities do not satisfy the obligations under this letter agreement.

(b)In the event Purchaser does not require an amount equal to the Equity Commitment in order to consummate the Transaction, the amount of the Equity Commitment to be funded under this letter agreement shall be reduced to the level sufficient, in combination with the other financing arrangements contemplated by the SPA or otherwise arranged by or for Purchaser, for Purchaser to pay the Closing Consideration pursuant to and in accordance with the SPA, together with related fees and expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the Transaction.

14.Conditions of Equity Commitment.  The obligation to fund the Equity Commitment shall be subject to (a) the satisfaction in full (or waiver, if permissible, by Purchaser), at or prior to the Closing, of each of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 of the SPA (other than Section 6.2(e) and any conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing but subject to the prior or substantially concurrent satisfaction of such conditions), (b) the Debt Financing having been funded or being funded at the Closing in accordance with the terms thereof if the Equity Commitment is funded at the Closing, (c) the proceeds from the Equity Commitment being used as described in Section 1(a), and (d) the contemporaneous consummation of the Transaction.

15.Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the Investor failed to fund the Equity Commitment in accordance with the terms of this letter agreement and further agree that Seller shall be entitled to enforce specifically the Investor’s obligation to fund the Equity Commitment in accordance with the terms hereof and shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with its exercise of such right of specific performance.  The Investor further agrees not to oppose the granting of any such specific performance on the basis that (a) Seller has an adequate remedy at law or (b) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity.  Seller’s exercise of the right of specific performance set forth in this Section 3 shall be Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity for any breach of this letter agreement by the Investor.

16.Changes in Payment Obligation; Certain Waivers.  Each party hereto hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, and shall cause its respective Affiliates not to institute, any proceeding asserting that this letter agreement is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to (a) the effects of insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceedings and (b) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

To the extent Purchaser is relieved of all or any portion of its payment obligations under the SPA, the Investor shall be similarly relieved of its corresponding obligations under this letter agreement.

17.No Waiver; Cumulative Rights.  No failure on the part of any party hereto to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any party hereto of any right, remedy

3

909023.04-CHISR01A - MSW

or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power hereunder.

18.Representations and Warranties.  The Investor hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser and Seller that:

(a)the execution, delivery and performance of this letter agreement do not contravene any law, regulation, rule, decree, order, judgment or contractual restriction binding on the Investor or his assets;

(b)all consents, approvals, authorizations and permits of, filings with and notifications to, any Governmental Entity necessary for the due execution, delivery and performance of this letter agreement by the Investor have been obtained or made and all conditions thereof have been duly complied with, and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Entity is required from the Investor in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this letter agreement;

(c)this letter agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Investor enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

(d)the Investor is solvent and shall not be rendered insolvent as a result of his execution and delivery of this letter agreement or the performance of his obligations hereunder;

(e)this letter agreement is in full force and effect against the Investor and has not been withdrawn, rescinded, repudiated or terminated or otherwise amended, supplement or modified in any respect by the Investor;

(f)there are no side letters or other agreements, contracts or arrangements to which the Investor is a party relating to this letter agreement or commitments contemplated hereby; and

(g)no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would or would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach on the part of the Investor under any term of this letter agreement or otherwise result in any portion of the Equity Commitment to be unavailable.

19.No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Enforceability of Equity Commitment.  The parties hereto hereby agree that their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein are solely for the benefit of the other parties hereto, in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this letter agreement, and this letter agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder, including the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth herein.  None of Purchaser’s or Seller’s creditors shall have the right to enforce this letter agreement or to cause Purchaser or Seller to enforce this letter agreement against the Investor.

909023.04-CHISR01A - MSW
