During such one hundred eighty (180) day period, Landlord may remove or cause to be removed any existing improvements, crops or timber. Subsequent to the passing of such one hundred eighty (180) day period, Tenant may destroy or remove any improvements, crops or timber remaining on the Leased Lands without liability to Landlord for such destruction or removal.

EXHIBIT C
Royalty Schedule Forming a Part of Paragraph 5

(a)The sum of [***] per month as a minimum royalty during each month of the first five years of this lease period. At the end of the first five years of the lease term, this minimum monthly royalty payment shall be adjusted proportionately with any changes in the Producer Price Index as determined by the U. S. Department of Labor during the first five years with the lease term, using calendar year 1985 as the base year. The minimum monthly royalty payment as adjusted shall then become the minimum monthly royalty payment for each month of the second five years of the lease term. At the end of the second five years and each five years thereafter, the minimum monthly royalty payment shall again be adjusted accordingly throughout the remaining term of the lease. For each adjustment after the first five year adjustment, the base year for the Producer Price Index shall be the last calendar year of the five year period which immediately preceded the five year period that just ended. Notwithstanding any of the above provisions, the minimum monthly royalty shall never be less than [***]. The payment for each month’s minimum royalty shall be made within twenty
(20) days following the beginning of the calendar month of the leased period. Minimum royalties paid by Tenant during the first three years of the lease may be recovered by Tenant as provided in the following provisions
(b)A sum equal to [***] of the annual average net sales price (as hereinafter defined) per ton (2,000 lbs.) of Construction Materials removed, processed, sold and shipped from the Leased Land as construction aggregate. Net sales price is defined as the FOB mine site sales price that Tenant receives from the Construction Materials less discounts for prompt payments. Tenant’s fiscal year commences October 1st, and at the end of each fiscal year, Tenant shall compute the annual average net sales price for Construction Materials sold from the Leased Land during the fiscal year. The fiscal year average net sales price shall be deemed the “annual average net sales price” for purposes of paying earned royalties under this subparagraph throughout the following fiscal year, then at the end of the next fiscal year, the fiscal year average net sales price shall he computed for payment of earned royalties in the following year and so forth throughout the terms hereof. It is understood that in preparing Construction Materials for sale and shipment, it is necessary to crush, process and wash the material. In this process, certain plant washings and tailings may be developed consisting of clay, sand and fine particles. These plant washings and tailings may be deposited in what is known as a “slurry pond”. Tenant shall not be required to pay for such materials which are produced in the ordinary crushing, processing and washing and deposited in the slurry pond even though the slurry pond may not be located on the Leased Lands.
(c)A sum equal to [***] of the sales price per cubic yard for all clay, topsoil and overburden sold by Tenant from the Leased Land.

(d)If the Construction Materials mined from the premises are used or sold by Tenant for use as raw products for cement manufacturing or for the manufacture of calcium products, then the royalty rate per ton for Construction Materials so used shall be equal to [***] of the sales price per ton for finished cement produced Materials or [***] of the sales finished calcium product produced Materials as the case may be.

(e)Minimum royalties paid under subparagraph (a) shall accrue in a “prepaid” royalty account and as earned royalties become due under subparagraphs (b) and (c) above, the Tenant shall be entitled to tender payment of the said earned royalties by crediting the sums accumulated in the “prepaid royalty account” as hereinafter provided. Minimum royalties paid during the first three years of this lease may be recovered at any time within the first ten years of the lease but not thereafter. Minimum royalties paid in the fourth and subsequent years of the lease may only be recovered by credit against earned royalties due during the Tenant’s fiscal year in which the minimum royalties are paid. Minimum royalties may only be recovered by credit against earned royalties as set forth therein.

EXHIBIT “D”

I.RECLAMATION REQUIREMENTS
a)Local, State and Federal Law. Tenant agrees to comply with all reclamation requirements imposed by any local, state and federal laws and regulations.

b)Slopes. Tenant agrees to slope all pit banks, dikes and spoil piles, to slope not steeper than 3H:IV to water’s edge and tenant further agrees to revegetate all above water slopes upon completion of mining.

Tenant shall submit a mining and land use plan to Landlord and at least annually update said plan. This plan shall include plans for reclamation including schedules for completion. To the extent practical, Tenant shall plan and carry out reclamation activities concurrently with mining.

c)Spoil Disposal. It is recognized by both Landlord and Tenant that the lakes excavated by Tenant under the terms of this Agreement are desirable additions to the land. Tenant agrees to refrain from impacting said lakes by allowing tailings (spoil) to enter the lakes insofar as is reasonably possible. However, it is also recognized by the parties that due to the physical restraints of property lines and topographic features and to economic considerations and the restraints of environmental regulations concerning land use, pumping of water, dike construction and impoundments, it is sometimes impractical to confine all tailings from mining operations in diked, upland impoundments.
When such considerations and Conditions preclude or render impractical the retention of tailings within diked, upland impoundments, Tenant will submit for Landlord’s approval, a plan to deposit tailings in an excavated lake area in a manner to cause as little adverse effect on the lake as possible. Due consideration shall be given to the need to minimize pumping distance. Approval of said plan shall not be unreasonably refused by Landlord.


10



II.OTHER COVENANTS
a)Real Estate Taxes. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 20 and other provisions of the foregoing mining lease agreement, Tenant agrees to pay all ad valorem real estate taxes assessed against the premises throughout the term hereof or any extension or renewal thereof.

(b)Now Clause. It is understood that the Tenant may now or at any time during the term of this lease mine and remove materials from adjoining lands not owned by the Landlord and process those materials through the plant located on the leasehold without the payment of additional rents or royalties to the Landlord hereunder provided, however, after January 32, 1989; the Tenant must utilize materials from the. leased premises for the production of at least 75% of all materials sold and shipped from the plant located on the leasehold during each year of the lease term. Once all reasonably recoverable material has been removed and sold from the leasehold, then this provision shall no longer be applicable. If Tenant violates the provisions of this paragraph by failing to produce at least 75% of the production from materials mined and excavated on the leasehold, then landlord may, at its option, terminate this lease by giving lessee 60 days written notice of such termination.
