Box 18100 Richmond, VA 23226 Telephone: 804-289-9600 Telecopier: 804-289-9770 7.84% Senior Notes, Series A, due 2007 8.02% Senior Notes, Series B, due 2008 As of January 18, 2001 TO EACH OF THE PURCHASERS LISTED IN THE ATTACHED SCHEDULE A: Ladies and Gentlemen: THE PITTSTON COMPANY, a Virginia corporation (the "Company"), agrees with you as follows: 1. AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES. 1.1. The Notes. The Company has duly authorized the issue and sale of $75,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Senior Notes, comprising $55,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.84% Senior Notes, Series A, due 2007 (the "Series A Notes") and $20,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8.02% Senior Notes, Series B, due 2008 (the "Series B Notes" and, together with the Series A Notes, collectively the "Notes"), such notes to be substantially in the respective forms set out in Exhibits 1.1(a) and 1.1(b). As used herein, the term "Notes" shall mean all notes (irrespective of series unless otherwise specified) originally delivered pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Agreements referred to below and all notes delivered in substitution or exchange for any such note and, where applicable, shall include the singular number as well as the plural. The terms "Note", "Series A Note" and "Series B Note" mean one of the Notes, Series A Notes and Series B Notes, respectively. Certain capitalized and other terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; references to a "Schedule" or an "Exhibit" are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement. 1.2. The Subsidiary Guarantees. The Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the Company's existing Restricted Subsidiaries, pursuant to subsidiary guarantees substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.2 (individually a "Subsidiary Guarantee" and collectively the "Subsidiary 2 Guarantees", which terms shall include after the date of the Closing all additional Subsidiary Guarantees from time to time executed and delivered pursuant to Section 9.6). 2. SALE AND PURCHASE OF NOTES. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to you and you will purchase from the Company, at the Closing provided for in Section 3, Notes of the series and in the principal amount specified opposite your name in Schedule A at the purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. Contemporaneously with entering into this Agreement, the Company is entering into separate Note Purchase Agreements (the "Other Agreements") identical with this Agreement with each of the other purchasers named in Schedule A (the "Other Purchasers"), providing for the sale at such Closing to each of the Other Purchasers of Notes of the series and in the principal amount specified opposite its name in Schedule A. Your obligation hereunder and the obligations of the Other Purchasers under the Other Agreements are several and not joint obligations and you shall have no obligation under any Other Agreement and no liability to any Person for the performance or non-performance by any Other Purchaser thereunder. 3. CLOSING. The sale and purchase of the Notes to be purchased by you and the Other Purchasers shall occur at the offices of Willkie Farr & Gallagher, 787 Seventh Avenue, New York, NY 10019 at 10:00 a.m., New York time, at a closing (the "Closing") on January 18, 2001 or on such other Business Day thereafter on or prior to January 23, 2001 as may be agreed upon by the Company and you and the Other Purchasers. At the Closing the Company will deliver to you the Notes to be purchased by you in the form of a single Note of the series to be purchased by you (or such greater number of Notes in denominations of at least $100,000 as you may request prior to the Closing) dated the date of the Closing and registered in your name (or in the name of your nominee), against delivery by you 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 to the Company's account (account number 9104010609) at The Chase Manhattan Bank, ABA number 021000021. If at the Closing the Company shall fail to tender such Notes to you as provided above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to your satisfaction, you shall, at your election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights you may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment. 4. CONDITIONS TO CLOSING. Your obligation to purchase and pay for the Notes to be sold to you at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment to your satisfaction, prior to or at the Closing, of the following conditions: 3 4.1. Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement shall be correct when made and at the time of the Closing. 4.2. Performance; No Default. The Company shall have performed and complied with all agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement required to be performed or complied with by it prior to or at the Closing and after giving effect to the issue and sale of the Notes (and the application of the proceeds thereof as contemplated by Section 5.14) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall have entered into any transaction since the date of the Memorandum that would have been prohibited by Section 10.1 or 10.2 had such Sections applied since such date. 4.3. Compliance Certificates. (a) Officer's Certificate. The Company shall have delivered to you an Officer's Certificate, dated the date of the Closing, certifying that the conditions specified in Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.9 have been fulfilled.

Reed, Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of the Company substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit 4.4(a)(ii) (and the Company hereby instructs its counsel to deliver such opinions to you) and (b) from Willkie Farr & Gallagher, your special counsel in connection with such transactions, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit 4.4(b) and covering such other matters incident to such transactions as you may reasonably request. 4.5.

(in such capacity sometimes individually called a "Subsidiary Guarantor" and collectively the "Subsidiary Guarantors", which term shall include after the date of the Closing all additional Restricted Subsidiaries that from time to time execute and deliver Subsidiary Guarantees pursuant to Section 9.6) and each such Subsidiary Guarantee shall be in full force and effect. 4 4.6. Purchase Permitted by Applicable Law, etc. On the date of the Closing your purchase of Notes shall (a) be permitted by the laws and regulations of each jurisdiction to which you are subject, without recourse to provisions (such as Section 1405(a)(8) of the New York Insurance Law) permitting limited investments by insurance companies without restriction as to the character of the particular investment, (b) not violate any applicable law or regulation (including without limitation Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and (c) not subject you to any tax, penalty or liability under or pursuant to any applicable law or regulation, which law or regulation was not in effect on the date hereof. If requested by you, you shall have received an Officer's Certificate certifying as to such matters of fact as you may reasonably specify to enable you to determine whether such purchase is so permitted. 4.7. Payment of Special Counsel Fees. Without limiting the provisions of Section 15.1, the Company shall have paid on or before the Closing the fees, charges and disbursements of your special counsel referred to in Section 4.4 to the extent reflected in a statement of such counsel rendered to the Company at least one Business Day prior to the Closing. 4.8. Private Placement Numbers.

Changes in Corporate Structure. The Company shall not have changed its jurisdiction of incorporation or been a party to any merger or consolidation or succeeded to all or any substantial part of the liabilities of any other entity at any time following the date of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 5.5. 4.10. Proceedings and Documents. All corporate and other proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all documents and instruments incident to such transactions shall be satisfactory to you and your special counsel, and you and your special counsel shall have received all such counterpart originals or certified or other copies of such documents as you or they may reasonably request. 4.11. Sale of Notes to Other Purchasers. The Company shall sell to the Other Purchasers and the Other Purchasers shall purchase the Notes to be purchased by them at the Closing as specified in Schedule A. 5 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY. The Company represents and warrants to you that: 5.1. Organization; Power and Authority. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has the corporate power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Other Agreements and the Notes and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof. 5.2. Authorization, etc. This Agreement and the Other Agreements and the Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 5.3. Disclosure. The Company, through its agent, Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, has delivered to you a copy of a Confidential Direct Placement Memorandum, dated November 2000 (the "Memorandum"), relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Memorandum fairly describes, in all material respects, the general nature of the business and principal properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries, except that the description of the coal business which the Company intends to dispose of is limited. This Agreement, the Memorandum (including the Appendices thereto), the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to you by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and described in Schedule 5.3 (together with the Memorandum, the "Disclosure Documents"), and the financial statements included in the Appendices to the Memorandum, 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, 1999, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents or in the financial statements included in the Appendices to the Memorandum and other changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no fact known to the Company that could 6 reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Memorandum or in the other Disclosure Documents. 5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries; Affiliates. (a) Schedule 5.4 contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists (i) of the Company's 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 and (ii) of the Company's directors and senior officers. Schedule 5.4 also identifies each Restricted Subsidiary and each Unrestricted Subsidiary as of the date of this Agreement. No Subsidiary listed in Schedule 5.4 is a guarantor under the Bank Credit Agreement other than the Subsidiary Guarantors listed in Section 4.5. (b) All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of each Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.4 as being owned by the Company and its Subsidiaries have been validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Company or another Subsidiary free and clear of any Lien (except as otherwise disclosed in Schedule 5.4). (c) Each Subsidiary identified in Schedule 5.4 is a corporation or other legal entity duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease and to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact and, in the case of Subsidiary Guarantors, to execute and deliver and perform its obligations under their respective Subsidiary Guarantees. (d) No Restricted Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to any legal restriction or any agreement (other than this Agreement, the agreements listed on Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by corporate law statutes) restricting the ability of such Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar distributions of profits to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of such Subsidiary. 5.5. Financial Statements. The Company's financial statements included in the Appendices to the Memorandum (including in each case the related schedules and notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such Schedule and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments). 7 5.6. Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, etc. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Notes and by the Subsidiary Guarantors of their respective Subsidiary Guarantees will not (i) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or (iii) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary. 5.7. Governmental Authorizations, etc. No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental Authority is required for the validity of the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of this Agreement or the Notes or by the Subsidiary Guarantors of their respective Subsidiary Guarantees. 5.8. Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and Orders. (a) Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.8, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any property of the Company or any Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default under any term of any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or is in violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation (including without limitation Environmental Laws) of any Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 5.9. Taxes. The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments levied upon them or their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any taxes and assessments (a) the amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or (b) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. The Company knows of no basis for any other tax or assessment that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and 8 reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of Federal, state or other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate. The Federal income tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been determined by the Internal Revenue Service and paid for all fiscal years up to and including the fiscal year ended December 31, 1993. 5.10. Title to Property; Leases. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and sufficient title to their respective properties that individually or in the aggregate are Material, including all such properties reflected in the most recent audited balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5 or purported to have been acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary after said date (except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in each case free and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement. All leases that individually or in the aggregate are Material are valid and subsisting and are in full force and effect in all material respects. 5.11. Licenses, Permits, etc. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.11, (a) the Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess all licenses, permits, franchises, authorizations, patents, copyrights, proprietary software, service marks, trademarks and trade names, or rights thereto, that individually or in the aggregate are Material, without known conflict with the rights of others; (b) to the knowledge of the Company, no product of the Company infringes in any material respect any license, permit, franchise, authorization, patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned by any other Person; and (c) to the knowledge of the Company, there is no Material violation by any Person of any right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 5.12. Compliance with ERISA. (a) The Company and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws except for such instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any such liability by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or to such penalty or excise tax provisions or to section 401(a)(29) or 412 of the Code, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not be individually or in the aggregate Material. 9 (b) The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each of the Plans (other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of the end of such Plan's most recently ended plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such Plan's most recent actuarial valuation report, did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities. The term "benefit liabilities" has the meaning specified in section 4001 of ERISA and the terms "current value" and "present value" have the meaning specified in section 3 of ERISA. (c) The Company and its ERISA Affiliates have not incurred withdrawal liabilities that have not been discharged (and are not currently subject to contingent withdrawal liabilities) under section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer Plans that individually or in the aggregate are Material. (d) Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, the expected post retirement benefit obligation (determined as of the last day of the Company's most recently ended fiscal year in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 106, without regard to liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by section 4980B of the Code) of the Company and its Subsidiaries is not Material. (e) With respect to each employee benefit plan, if any, disclosed by you in writing to the Company in accordance with Section 6.2(c), neither the Company nor any "affiliate" of the Company (as defined in Section V(c) of the QPAM Exemption) has at this time, nor has exercised at any time during the immediately preceding year, the authority to appoint or terminate the "QPAM" (as defined in Part V of the QPAM Exemption) disclosed by you to the Company pursuant to Section 6.2(c) as manager of any of the assets of any such plan or to negotiate the terms of any management agreement with such QPAM on behalf of any such plan, and the Company is not an "affiliate" (as so defined) of such QPAM. The Company has advised you if it is a party in interest with respect to any employee benefit plan originally disclosed by you in accordance with Section 6.2(b) or 6.2(e). The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Notes at the Closing hereunder will not involve any prohibited transaction (as such term is defined in section 406(a) of ERISA and section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code), that could subject the Company or any holder of a Note to any tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed under said section 4975 of the Code or by section 502(i) of ERISA. The representation by the Company in the preceding sentence of this Section 5.12(e) is made in reliance upon and subject to the accuracy of your representation in Section 6.2 as to the source of the funds used to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by you (including without limitation after giving effect to your necessary change in the source in respect of a party in interest identified by the Company as aforesaid). 5.13. Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees 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 you, the Other Purchasers and not more than 35 other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the 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 10 Notes or the issuance of the Subsidiary Guarantees to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act. 5.14. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Company will apply the net proceeds of the sale of the Notes to repay Indebtedness and for general corporate purposes. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, and no part of the proceeds of such Indebtedness being repaid was 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 Reserve System (12 CFR 221), 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 5% 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 25% 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. 5.15. Existing Indebtedness. Schedule 5.15 sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in an unpaid principal amount exceeding $25,000,000 as of December 31, 2000, since which date there has been no Material change in the amounts, interest rates, sinking funds, instalment payments or maturities of the Indebtedness of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary is in default, and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, and no event or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that would permit (or that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.15, neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary has agreed or consented to cause or permit in the future (upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien that would not be permitted by Section 10.1 without equally and ratably securing the Notes. 5.16. Foreign Assets Control Regulations, etc. Neither the sale of the 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. 11 5.17. Status Under Certain Statutes.

Environmental Matters. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has knowledge of any claim or has received any written notice of any claim against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is outstanding or unresolved, and no proceeding has been instituted and is pending raising any claim against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective real properties now owned, leased or operated by any of them or other assets, alleging any damage to the environment or violation of any Environmental Laws, except, in each case, such as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as otherwise disclosed to you in writing, (a) neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has knowledge of any facts which would be reasonably likely to result in any claim, public or private, against the Company or any Subsidiary under any Environmental Laws, except, in each case, for such claims that could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; (b) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has stored any Hazardous Materials on real properties now or formerly owned, leased or operated by any of them or disposed of any Hazardous Materials, in any case in a manner contrary to any Environmental Laws that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; and (c) all buildings on all real properties now owned, leased or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws, except where failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 6.

In case any of the calculations provided pursuant to clause (a) above are made without giving effect to a change in GAAP, by reason of an objection by the Company or the Required Holders pursuant to Section 22.6 to calculations taking into account such change in GAAP, such certificate of a Senior Financial Officer shall be accompanied by a certificate or letter from the Company's independent public accountants to the effect that they have reviewed and verified such calculations. 7.3. Inspection. The Company shall permit the representatives of each holder of Notes that is an Institutional Investor (subject to compliance with Section 20): (a) No Default -- if no Default or Event of Default then exists, at the expense of such holder and upon reasonable prior notice to the Company, to visit the principal executive office of the Company, to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Company and its Subsidiaries with the Company's officers, and (with the consent of the Company, which consent will not be 17 unreasonably withheld) its independent public accountants, and (with the consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) to visit the other offices and properties of the Company and each Subsidiary, all at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested in writing; and (b) Default -- if a Default or Event of Default then exists, at the expense of the Company, to visit and inspect any of the offices or properties of the Company or any Subsidiary, to examine all their respective books of account, records, reports and other papers, to make copies and extracts therefrom, and to discuss their respective affairs, finances and accounts with their respective officers, employees and independent public accountants (and by this provision the Company authorizes said accountants to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Company and its Subsidiaries), all at such times and as often as may be requested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to disclose to any holder of Notes any information (other than financial information and other data related to the financial performance of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including without limitation copies of written reports that the Company provides to its lending banks) to the extent that the Company is advised in writing by internal or external legal counsel that the Company is prohibited from disclosing such information at such time to its creditors generally under any applicable law, rule, regulation or order (or other binding restriction imposed by any Governmental Authority) or as a result of any agreement entered into in good faith with third parties that are not lenders to the Company or a Subsidiary. 8. PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES. In addition to the payment of the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes of each series at the final maturity thereof, the Company will make required prepayments on account of the Series A Notes and may make optional prepayments in respect of the Notes as hereinafter provided. 8.1. Required Prepayments of Series A Notes. On January 18, 2005 and January 18, 2006 the Company will prepay $18,333,000 aggregate principal amount (or such lesser principal amount as shall then be outstanding) of the Series A Notes, such prepayment to be made at the principal amount to be prepaid, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of such prepayment, without payment of any Make-Whole Amount or other premium, allocated as provided in Section 8.4. No partial prepayment of the Series A Notes pursuant to Section 8.2 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to make prepayments of the Notes required by this Section 8.1 (with the effect that such optional prepayments shall be applied to such required prepayments and to the payment at the final maturity of the Series A Notes in inverse order), provided that upon any purchase of less than all of the outstanding Series A Notes pursuant to Section 8.6 the principal amount of each required prepayment of the Series A Notes becoming due under this Section 8.1 on and after the date of such purchase shall be reduced in the same proportion as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Series A Notes is reduced as a result of such purchase. 18 8.2. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount. The Company may, at its option and upon notice as provided in Section 8.3, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes (in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and otherwise in multiples of $100,000) at the principal amount so prepaid, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment, plus the Make-Whole Amount for the Notes of each series determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount. 8.3. Notice of Prepayment. The Company will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under Section 8.2 not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of Notes held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.4) and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid. Each such notice of prepayment shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount for the Notes of each series 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 Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amounts as of the specified prepayment date. 8.4. Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Series A Notes pursuant to Section 8.1 or all Notes pursuant to Section 8.2, the principal amount of the Series A Notes or all Notes, as the case may be, to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Series A Notes or all of the Notes, as the case may be, at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof. 8.5. Maturity; Surrender, etc. In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each 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 Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note. 19 8.6. 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 Notes except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by the Company or an Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions (except for differences to reflect the terms of the Notes of each series). Any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer and shall remain open for at least 30 days. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any such offer and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes. Promptly and in any event within ten Business Days after each such purchase of Notes, the Company will furnish each holder of the Notes with a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer describing such purchase (including the aggregate principal amount of Notes of each series so purchased and the purchase price therefor) and certifying that such purchase was made in compliance with the requirements of this Section. 8.7. Make-Whole Amount. The term "Make-Whole Amount" means, with respect to any 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 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: "Called Principal" means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires. "Discounted Value" means, with respect to the Called Principal of any 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 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 Note, .50% (50 basis points) 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 (x) the Bloomberg Financial Markets News screen PX1 or the equivalent screen provided by Bloomberg Financial Markets News, or (y) if such on-line market data is not at the time provided by Bloomberg Financial Markets News, on the display designated as "Page 500" on the Dow Jones Markets service (or such other display as may replace Page 500 on the Dow Jones Markets service), in any case for actively traded non-callable U.S. Treasury securities 20 having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life 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 (including by way of interpolation), 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 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 U.S. Treasury security with a maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with a 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 Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal 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 Notes, 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 8.2 or 12.1. "Settlement Date" means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires. 9. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. The Company covenants that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding: 9.1. Compliance with Law. The Company will and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with all laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations to which each of them is subject, including without limitation Environmental Laws, and will obtain and maintain in effect all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations necessary to the 21 ownership of their respective properties or to the conduct of their respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that non-compliance with such laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or maintain in effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 9.2. Insurance. The Company will and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance if adequate reserves are maintained with respect thereto to the extent required by GAAP) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated. 9.3. Maintenance of Properties. The Company will and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to maintain and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be conducted properly at all times, provided that this Section shall not prevent the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from selling all or any substantial part of the assets of any member of the Pittston Minerals Group or from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its other properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Company has concluded that such discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 9.4. Payment of Taxes and Claims. The Company will and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to file all tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes, assessments, governmental charges, or levies imposed on them or any of their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might become a Lien on properties or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, provided that neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary need pay any such tax or assessment or claims if (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) the nonpayment of all such taxes and assessments in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 22 9.5. Corporate Existence, etc. Subject to Section 10.6, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence. Subject to Sections 10.4 and 10.6, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (unless merged into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such corporate existence, right or franchise could not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 9.6. Additional Subsidiary Guarantees; Release of Subsidiary Guarantees. (a) So long as the Bank Credit Agreement remains in effect the Company will cause each Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a borrower or a guarantor thereunder or in respect thereof after the date of the Closing (if such Restricted Subsidiary is not at the time a Subsidiary Guarantor) to become a Subsidiary Guarantor by executing and delivering a Subsidiary Guarantee, prior to or concurrently with so becoming a borrower or a guarantor; and promptly and in any event within ten Business Days thereafter the Company will furnish each holder of the Notes with a counterpart of such executed Subsidiary Guarantee, together with an opinion of Cravath, Swaine & Moore or other counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders (which opinion may be subject to customary exceptions, qualifications and limitations under the circumstances none of which shall affect the parity of obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee and the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor as a borrower or guarantor under the Bank Credit Agreement) to the effect that such Subsidiary Guarantee has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and is valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms. (b) Except as provided in Subsection (c) below, the Company will cause each Subsidiary Guarantee to remain in full force and effect at all times after the execution and delivery thereof, provided that you and each other holder of a Note, by acceptance of such Note, agree that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be discharged from all of its obligations and liabilities under its Subsidiary Guarantee, effective at the time such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company after giving effect to a consolidation, merger, sale or other disposition (other than in a transaction resulting in an assumption by the successor pursuant to Section 10.6(a)(ii)), and except that this proviso shall not apply (i) if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) to a Subsidiary Guarantor if any amount is then due and payable under its Subsidiary Guarantee, (iii) to a Subsidiary Guarantor which at the time is a guarantor of any other Indebtedness of the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Restricted Subsidiary that ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company after giving effect to such transaction) that is not also concurrently being released or (iv) unless within three Business Days after such discharge, the Company shall have furnished each holder of the Notes with a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer describing such transaction and certifying that such discharge was effected in compliance with the terms of this Subsection (b).

Other Remedies. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise. 12.3.

AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. 17.1. Requirements. This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 21, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to you unless consented to by you in writing, and (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or change the rate or the time of payment or method of computation of interest or of the Make-Whole Amount on, the Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend any of Sections 8, 11(a), 11(b), 12, 17 or 20. 17.2. Solicitation of Holders of Notes. (a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 17 to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction. 20. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. For the purposes of this Section 20, "Confidential Information" means information (including without limitation the Memorandum) delivered to you by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to you prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by you or any person acting on your behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to you other than through disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary or by a source that you know is required to maintain the confidentiality of such information or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to you under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available.

Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company embodying the provisions of this Section 20. 39 21. SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER. You shall have the right to substitute any one of your Affiliates as the purchaser of the Notes that you have agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both you and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate's agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word "you" is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of you. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to you all of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, wherever the word "you" is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to you, and you shall have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement. 22. MISCELLANEOUS. 22.1. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including without limitation any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not. 22.2. Construction. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person. 22.3. Consent to Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive in personam jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, the Company irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the in personam jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. (b) The Company consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section 22.3 by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the address of 40 such party specified in Section 18 or at such other address of which you shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. The Company agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the full extent permitted by law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to such party. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service. (c) Nothing in this Section 22.3 shall affect the right of any holder of Notes to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders of any of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction. (d) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH. 22.4. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 8.3 that notice of any optional prepayment specify a Business Day as the date fixed for such prepayment), any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day. 22.5. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 22.6. Accounting Terms; Changes in GAAP. All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP and all balance sheets and other financial statements with respect thereto shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP; provided, however, if (a) at the time of delivery of any financial statements pursuant to Section 7.1 the Company shall object to making computations for the purpose of determining compliance with this Agreement on the basis of any change in GAAP after the date of this Agreement or (b) the Required Holders shall so object in writing within 60 days after receipt of such financial statements, then in either case such computations shall be made on a basis consistent with the most recent financial statements 41 delivered by the Company to the holders of Notes as to which no such objection shall have been made (or, prior to the delivery of the first financial statements pursuant to Section 7.1, consistent with the annual audited financial statements included in the Appendices to the Memorandum). Without limiting the generality of Section 7.1, prior to or concurrently with the delivery of financial statements reflecting any change in GAAP, the Company will give notice of such change to the holders of Notes (and for such purpose a note or explanation in reasonable detail accompanying such financial statements shall be deemed to constitute notice). The Company will also give prompt written notice to the holders of Notes in the event that the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders (as such terms are defined in the Bank Credit Agreement) object to determining compliance with the Bank Credit Agreement on the basis of any change in GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any consolidated financial statement or financial computation shall be done in accordance with GAAP; and, if at the time that any such statement or computation is required to be made the Company shall not have any Restricted Subsidiary, such terms shall mean a financial statement or a financial computation, as the case may be, with respect to the Company only. 22.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto. 22.8. Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State. 42 If you are in agreement with the foregoing, please sign the form of agreement in the space below provided on a counterpart of this Agreement and return it to the Company, whereupon the foregoing shall become a binding agreement between you and the Company.
