     ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLANS

     On March 28, 2008, the Compensation Committees of the Board of Directors of NACCO Industries, Inc., which is referred to as NACCO, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc., which is referred to as HBB, NACCO Materials Handling Group, Inc., which is referred to as NMHG, and The North American Coal Corporation, which is referred to as NA Coal, each adopted a 2008 Annual Incentive Compensation Plan, which are respectively referred to as the NACCO Annual Incentive Plan, the HBB Annual Incentive Plan, the NMHG Annual Incentive Plan and the NA Coal Annual Incentive Plan and are collectively referred to as the Annual Incentive Plans, for the benefit of certain of their respective executive and management employees.

     Additionally, performance criteria were established for the Annual Incentive Plans and the NACCO Industries, Inc. Supplemental Annual Incentive Compensation Plan, which is referred to as the NACCO Supplemental Plan.

     The Annual Incentive Plans and the NACCO Supplemental Plan provide that each participant is eligible to earn a target incentive award during the award term of January 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008. Final payouts for each individual under the Annual Incentive Plans and the NACCO Supplemental Plan are based on the participant’s target award measured against established performance criteria and performance by the participant against individual goals for the January 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008 performance period. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of each of NACCO, HBB, NMHG and NA Coal, which are collectively referred to as the Compensation Committees, in its discretion, may also increase or decrease awards under its respective company’s Annual Incentive Plan and may approve the payment of awards where performance would otherwise not meet the minimum criteria set for payment of awards. Under the NACCO Supplemental Plan, however, there are no individual performance goals and the NACCO Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, may only decrease the awards that are payable to the named executive officers under the NACCO Supplemental Plan. Payouts under the Annual Incentive Plans and the NACCO Supplemental Plan generally range from 0% to 150% of the participant’s target award amount.

     For 2008, the performance criteria under the Annual Incentive Plans and the NACCO Supplemental Plan are as follows:

NACCO Annual Incentive Plan	(1) NACCO’s consolidated return on total capital employed, which is referred to as ROTCE, is the performance criteria for 40% of the total award for participants who are not named executive officers (2) The non-ROTCE performance criteria that the Compensation Committees established under the annual incentive plans for NACCO’s subsidiaries is the performance criteria for 60% of the total award for all participants. That performance criteria is described below and also includes the performance criteria established under The Kitchen Collection, Inc. 2008 Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (which are net income, ROTCE, and sales development)
NACCO Supplemental Plan	NACCO’s consolidated ROTCE is the performance criteria for 40% of the total award for participants who are named executive officers

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLANS

     NACCO LTIP

     Also on March 28, 2008, the NACCO Compensation Committee established performance criteria for the NACCO Industries, Inc. Executive Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, which is referred to as the NACCO LTIP. The performance criteria under the NACCO LTIP are as follows:

• Base Period Awards: NACCO’s consolidated ROTCE for the performance period from January 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008; and

Exhibit 10.2

HAMILTON BEACH BRANDS, INC.
Annual Incentive Compensation Plan – 2008

Introduction

     Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) has established an Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) as part of a competitive compensation program for the officers and key management employees of the Employers (as defined below). This Plan is also referred to as the Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan.

Plan Objective

     The Employers desire to attract and retain talented employees to enable the Employers to meet their financial and business objectives. The objective of the Plan is to provide an opportunity to earn annual incentive compensation to those employees whose performance has a significant impact on the Company’s short-term and long-term profitability.

Administration

     The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”). The Committee:

a.	May amend, modify, or discontinue the Plan.
b.	Will designate Plan Participants.
c.	Will determine the annual performance criteria which generates the incentive compensation pool.
d.	Will determine the total amount of both the target and actual annual incentive compensation pool.
e.	Will approve individual incentive compensation Awards to Participants who are officers and employees above Hay Salary Job Grade 17.
f.	May delegate to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company the power to approve incentive compensation Awards to Participants in and below Hay Salary Job Grade 17.
g.	Except as determined by the Committee, a Participant must be employed on December 31 of the Award Term in order to be entitled to receive an Award hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may approve a pro rata incentive compensation Award for Participants who terminate employment prior to December 31 of the Award Term, provided those Participants were actively at work for 90 days in the Award Term and whose employment is terminated (1) due to death, Disability, Retirement or Facility Closure or Partial Closure or (2) under other circumstances at the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

     The Committee shall have complete authority to interpret all provisions of this Plan consistent with law, to prescribe the form of any instrument evidencing any Award granted or paid under this Plan, to adopt, amend and rescind general and special rules and regulations for its administration, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum, and the action of members of the Committee present at any meeting at which a quorum is present or acts unanimously approved in writing, shall be the act of the Committee. All acts and decisions of the Committee with respect to any questions arising in connection with the administration and interpretation of this Plan, including the severability of any or all of the provisions hereof, shall be conclusive, final and binding upon the Employers and all present and former Participants and employees and their respective descendants, successors and assigns. No member of the Committee shall be liable for any such act or decision made in good faith.

Determination of Corporate Incentive Compensation Pool

     Each Participant in the Plan will have an individual target incentive compensation percentage which is determined by the Participant’s Hay Salary Job Grade.

     This percentage is multiplied by the midpoint of the Participant’s Hay Salary Job Grade to determine his/her individual target incentive compensation Award.

     The total of the target incentive compensation Awards of all Participants equals the target corporate incentive compensation pool (the “Target Pool”). The Target Pool is approved at the beginning of each Award Term by the Committee.

     The actual corporate incentive compensation pool (the “Actual Pool”) is determined as of the end of each Award Term based on the Company’s actual performance against specific criteria established in the beginning of the Award Term by the Committee. The Target Pool is adjusted upwards or downwards by corporate performance adjustment factors to determine the Actual Pool. In no event will the actual Pool exceed 150% of the Target Pool, except to the extent that the Committee elects to increase the Actual Pool by up to 10%, as described below.

     Subject to the Committee’s right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time, it is the intent of the Plan that the Actual Pool, as determined above, will be the final total corporate incentive compensation pool. However, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may increase or decrease by up to 10% the Actual Pool or may approve an incentive compensation pool where there would normally be no pool due to Company performance which is below the criteria established for the Award Term.

     The Actual and Target Pools exclude commission personnel such as salespersons, regional general managers, and manufacturers representatives.

Determination of Individual Incentive Compensation Awards

     Hay Salary Job Grades and the corresponding target incentive percentage for each Participant in the Plan will be established at the beginning of each Award Term and approved by the Committee. Individual target incentive compensation will then be adjusted by the appropriate pool factor. Such adjusted individual incentive compensation will then be further modified based on a Participant’s performance as compared to his individual goals for the year. If a Participant’s performance during the Award Term is determined to be unsatisfactory, the Committee reserves the right to reduce the Participant’s Award for the Award Term to zero. The total of all individual incentive compensation Awards must not exceed the Actual Pool for the Award Term.

Payment Date/Taxes

     Promptly following the Committee’s approval of the final Awards, the Participant’s Employer shall pay the amount of such Awards to the Participants in cash, subject to all withholdings and deductions described in the following sentence; provided, however, that (i) no Award shall be payable to a Participant except as determined by the Committee and (ii) all Awards shall be paid during the period from January 1^st through March 15^th after the close of the Award Term. Any Award paid to a Participant under this Plan shall be subject to all applicable foreign, federal, state and local income tax, social security and other standard withholdings and deductions.

Definitions

     (a) “Award” means cash paid to a Participant under the Plan for the Award Term in an amount determined in accordance with the Plan.

     (b) “Award Term” means the period from January 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008.

     (c) “Disability” means an approved application for disability benefits under an Employer’s long term disability plan or under any applicable government program.

     (d) “Employer” means the Company, Hamilton Beach Brands Canada, Inc. and Hamilton Beach Brands de Mexico, S.A. de C.V.

     (e) “Facility Closure or Partial Closure” means any layoff which requires a WARN Act notice in the United States or, in Mexico, any layoff of 50 or more employees.

     (f) “Participant” means any person who is classified by the Employers as a salaried employee and in Hay Salary Job Grades 14 and above, who in the judgment of the Committee occupies a key position in which his efforts may significantly contribute to the profits or growth of the Company; provided, however, that the Committee may select any employee who is expected to contribute, or who has contributed, significantly to the Company’s profitability to participate in the Plan and receive an Award hereunder; and further provided, however, that following the end of the Award Term the Committee may make one or more discretionary Awards to employees of the Employers who were not previously designated as Participants. Directors of the Company who are also employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Committee shall have the power to add Participants at any later date in the Award Term if individuals subsequently become eligible to participate in the Plan; provided that they were first hired by an Employer prior to August 31^st of an Award Term. Each Participant shall be notified that he is eligible to receive an Award and the amount of his target Award. If a Participant receives a change in salary midpoint, such Participant shall be notified of any resulting change in his target Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any person who is classified by an Employer as commissioned personnel be included as a Participant in the Plan (including, without limitation, salespersons, regional general managers and manufacturers representatives).

     (e) Limitation on Rights of Participants; No trust. No trust has been created by the Employers for the payment of Awards granted under this Plan; nor have the Participants been granted any lien on any assets of the Employers to secure payment of such benefits. This Plan represents only an unfunded, unsecured promise to pay by the Company and a Participant hereunder is a mere unsecured creditor of his Employer.

     (f) Payment to Guardian. If an Award is payable to a minor, to a person declared incompetent or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of his property, the Committee may direct payment of such Award to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care and custody of such minor, incompetent or person. The Committee may require such proof of incompetency, minority, incapacity or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to the distribution of such Award. Such distribution shall completely discharge the Employers from all liability with respect to such Award.

2008 Performance Targets

     The performance targets for the Plan are attached as an Addendum to this document.

EX-10.3

Exhibit 10.3

NACCO MATERIALS HANDLING GROUP, INC.
2008 ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

Introduction

     NACCO Materials Handling Group, Inc., (the “Company”) has established an Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (“Plan”) as part of a competitive compensation program for the officers and key management employees of the Employers.

Plan Objective

     The Employers desire to attract and retain talented employees to enable the Employers to meet their financial and business objectives. The objective of the Plan is to provide an opportunity to earn annual incentive compensation to those employees whose performance has a significant impact on the Company’s short-term and long-term profitability.

Administration

     The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”). The Committee:

a.	May amend, modify or discontinue the Plan.
b.	Will designate Plan Participants.
c.	Will determine the annual performance criteria which generate the incentive compensation pool.
d.	Will determine the total amount of both the target and actual annual incentive compensation pool.
e.	Will approve individual incentive compensation Awards to Participants who are officers and employees classified above salary grade 30.
f.	May delegate to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company the approval of incentive compensation Awards to Participants who are classified in salary grade 30 and below.
g.	Except as determined by the Committee, a Participant must be employed on December 31 of the Award Term in order to be entitled to receive an Award hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may approve a pro-rated incentive compensation Award for Participants in the Plan whose employment is terminated (1) due to death, Disability, Retirement or facility closure or (2) under other circumstances at the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

     The Committee shall have complete authority to interpret all provisions of this Plan consistent with law, to prescribe the form of any instrument evidencing any Award granted or paid under this Plan, to adopt, amend and rescind general and special rules and regulations for its administration, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum, and the action of members of the Committee present at any meeting at which a quorum is present or acts unanimously approved in writing, shall be the act of the Committee. All acts and decisions of the Committee with respect to any questions arising in connection with the administration and interpretation of this Plan, including the severability of any or all of the provisions hereof, shall be conclusive, final and binding upon the Employers all present and former Participants and employees and their respective descendants, successors and assigns. No member of the Committee shall be liable for any such act or decision made in good faith.

Determination of Corporate Incentive Compensation Pool

     Each Participant in the Plan will have an individual target incentive compensation percentage, which is determined by the Participant’s salary grade. This percentage is multiplied by the mid-point of the Participant’s salary grade to determine his individual target incentive compensation Award. The total of the target incentive compensation Awards of all Participants equals the target corporate incentive compensation pool (“Target Pool”). The Target Pool is approved at the beginning of each Award Term by the Committee.

     The actual corporate incentive compensation pool (“Actual Pool”) is determined as of the end of each Award Term based on the Company’s actual performance against specific criteria established in the beginning of the Award Term by the Committee. The Target Pool is adjusted upwards or downwards by corporate performance adjustment factors to determine the Actual Pool. In no event will the Actual Pool exceed 150% of the Target Pool, except to the extent that the Committee elects to increase the Actual Pool by up to 10%, as described below.

     The Target and Actual Pools may consist of the sum of two or more subpools, provided the subpools have individual objectives.

     Subject to the Committee’s right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time, it is the intent of the Plan that the Actual Pool, as determined above, will be the final total corporate incentive compensation pool. However, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may increase or decrease by up to 10% the Actual Pool or may approve an incentive compensation pool where there would normally be no pool due to Company performance which is below the criteria established for the Award Term.

     The Actual and Target Pools exclude the Marketing Incentive Plan for regional parts, service, sales and national account managers. However, total compensation or employees covered by the Marketing Incentive Plan will be based on competitive levels.

Determination of Individual Incentive Compensation Awards

     Salary grades and the corresponding target incentive percentages for each Participant in the Plan will be established at the beginning of each Award Term and approved by the Committee. Individual target incentive compensation will then be adjusted by the appropriate pool or subpool factor. Such adjusted individual incentive compensation will then be further modified based on the team performance to which an individual belongs compared to the team goals for the Award Term, and may be further modified based on a Participant’s performance as compared to their individual goals for the Award Term.

The total of all individual incentive compensation Awards must not exceed the Actual Pool for the Year.

Below are examples of actual pool and individual Award calculations.

EX-10.4

Exhibit 10.4

THE NORTH AMERICAN COAL CORPORATION
2008 ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

SUMMARY

This Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) offers a highly attractive incentive compensation opportunity to senior managers of The North American Coal Corporation (the “Company” or “NAC”) and its subsidiaries (the “Subsidiaries”) when specified performance objectives under their control or influence are achieved. This is accomplished through a structure containing the following elements:

n	Each Participant is assigned an individual incentive target, stated as a percentage of their base salary midpoint, that establishes the target incentive compensation Award they may receive under the Plan when performance objectives are met.
n	The individual target Award is allocated among the following performance components:

- North American Coal (NAC) corporate performance.

- Bellaire Corporation cash flow.

- Business unit results.

- Individual achievement.

n	Percentage weightings are assigned to each component, based on the Participant’s accountabilities and their impact on each component.
n	One or more performance objectives will be established at the beginning of the Award Year for each performance component.
n	A performance range, which defines the acceptable level of results, from threshold to maximum, is created for each performance objective.
n	A payout range is defined, which provides for actual incentive Award payments of up to 150 percent of the incentive target Award, except to the extent the Committee elects to increase or decrease the actual pool by up to 10 percent, as described below.
n	A performance/payout formula combines the two ranges into a matrix that defines the level of incentive compensation payment that will result from each level of performance.
n	After audited financials are available, actual Awards will be calculated based on actual results against the established objectives.
n	A final individual performance adjustment may be made, within a range of +10 percent of the calculated Award, based on a judgment of the Participant’s overall performance.
n	All Awards will be paid in cash, during the period from January 1st through March 15th after the end of the Award Term.

This Incentive Compensation Plan allows management and the Committee to establish, in advance, the performance expectations and related incentive compensation potential that Plan Participants can expect for the Award Year. At the end of the Award Year, the Plan focuses judgment of the management team’s performance on predetermined objectives that should produce fairness in the determination of Awards.

PLAN STRUCTURE

Individual Incentive Targets

The primary focus of the Plan is the individual incentive compensation target Award. At the beginning of each Award Term, each Participant is assigned a target Award, stated as a percentage of the mid-point of base salary, which is payable under the Plan when all relevant performance objectives are achieved. The Plan provides for payments above or below the target Award to reflect acceptable variances from performance objectives.

Performance Goals

The following four sets of performance goals apply for the 2008 Award Term:

                    Intentionally Omitted

Incentive Award Range

Actual performance results attained probably will not match the established performance goals exactly. Therefore, the Plan is designed to provide incentive compensation payouts of up to 150 percent of the target Award if actual results fall within a predetermined range of acceptable performance.

The Award range is defined as follows:

	% of
Award Level	Target	Description
Maximum	150%	Highest level of incentive paid
Target	100%	Competitive incentive opportunity for achieving all-important goals
Threshold	25% to 50%	Incentive paid when results meet minimum acceptable standards
Below threshold	0%	Performance does not merit incentive payment

Component Weightings

Participants’ potential incentive Awards will be allocated between performance components based on their individual impact on results. The allocations allow for Awards to be earned based on the achievement of the performance objectives over which each Participant has the most control. Weightings will be stated as a percentage and total 100 percent for each Participant. The weightings will be established at the beginning of each Award Year to reflect current organizational accountabilities and the relative importance of the various performance components. The applicable weightings for the 2008 Award Year are as follows:

Intentionally Omitted

When there is more than one goal for a performance component, further percentage weightings may be assigned, within the overall weightings, to reflect the relative priority of each goal. For example, if the individual component has a 40 percent weighting and there are five individual goals, each individual goal might be assigned a priority weighting of 20 percent.

Performance Range

A range of performance acceptable for incentive compensation payment will be established for each performance objective. For quantitative goals, the range may be set as a percentage of the objective. For goals that cannot be quantified, the range will be defined in narrative form.

The following general definitions will apply. The percentage ranges indicated are only guidelines; specific percentage ranges or narrative descriptions will be determined for each goal based on the definitions.

	Performance
Performance	Percentage
Level	Guideline	Definition
Threshold	75%	Minimum acceptable results justifying payment of incentives
Objective	100%	Results meet high performance demands justifying fully competitive rewards
Maximum	125%	Highest foreseeable level of performance

Performance/Payout Formula

Combining the performance and payout ranges yields a performance/payout formula as in the following example:

Performance	Definition	Results	Award Levels	Payout
Threshold	Minimum	75%	Threshold	50%
Objective	On plan	100%	Target	100%
Maximum	Exceeding expectations	125%	Maximum	150%

This formula is applied separately to the results of each established performance element to determine the incentive amount earned in accordance with assigned weightings. Performance that falls between the defined levels would result in proportionally adjusted payouts, which may be calculated mathematically or determined judgmentally.

Corporate Performance Threshold

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no incentive compensation Awards will be earned under the Plan in any Award Year unless the threshold level of the corporate performance component is achieved. Once the corporate performance threshold is attained, each performance objective is separate and distinct. This means that partial Awards can be earned for the attainment of one performance objective even if another is not sufficient to generate a payout.

Individual Adjustment Factor

Each individual Award, as calculated above, may be adjusted upward or downward by as much as 10 percent of the total Award, based on management’s perceptions of each individual’s overall performance.

Partial Awards

Executives who are hired or promoted during an Award Year to positions eligible for participation in the Plan may be included in the Plan on a prorata basis (as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion). Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, a Participant must be employed by an Employer on December 31 of the Award Term in order to be entitled to receive an Award hereunder.

Committee Discretion

It is the intent of the Plan that the total incentive compensation, as determined above, will be the final total corporate incentive compensation to be paid under the Plan. However, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may increase or decrease, by up to 10 percent, the total incentive compensation Award pool or may approve incentive compensation Award payments where normally there would be no payment, due to corporate performance which is below the criteria established for the Award Year.

This Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have complete authority to interpret all provisions of this Plan consistent with law, to prescribe the form of any instrument evidencing any Award granted or paid under this Plan, to adopt, amend and rescind general and special rules and regulations for its administration, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum, and the action of members of the Committee present at any meeting at which a quorum is present or acts unanimously approved in writing, shall be the act of the Committee. All acts and decisions of the Committee with respect to any questions arising in connection with the administration and interpretation of this Plan, including the severability of any or all of the provisions hereof, shall be conclusive, final and binding upon the Employers and all present and former Participants and employees and their respective descendants, successors and assigns. No member of the Committee shall be liable for any such act or decision made in good faith.
