The Buyer shall insure the Coal against customary risks for its account.
15. FORCE MAJEURE
In the event of Force Majeure (as defined in this clause), performance of the obligations of both Seller and Buyer will be
suspended until after the end of the Force Majeure event. If the Force Majeure lasts longer than 30 days, either party shall
be entitled to terminate, by means of a written declaration and without court intervention, whole or part of the Agreement.
In case of Force Majeure Buyer and Seller shall not be liable for any losses suffered as a result thereof by the other Party or
its business relations.

A Force Majeure event is deemed to exist if the performance of a contractual obligation (other than the payment due in
relation to deliveries and/or services already made) of either the Seller or the Buyer is or will be wholly or partly prevented
or impeded by any cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control of that Party provided that Party cannot be reasonably
required to accomplish the performance of its contractual obligations, regardless whether such causes or circumstances
could have been foreseen at the time when the Agreement was entered into.

A Force Majeure event includes but is not limited to strikes, lock-outs, labour disputes, sabotage, storm, floods and other
natural phenomena, explosion, accidents, fire, war or acts of war, international conflicts, civil commotion, riot, insurrection,
piracy, terrorism, blockade, epidemic, quarantine, embargo, mobilization, non-delivery or incomplete delivery from one or
more suppliers or delayed delivery from one or more suppliers or delivery of material with incorrect specifications/ quality
from one or more suppliers, shortage of suitable transportation or loading facilities, loading hindrances or delays, shortage
of energy or raw materials, operational difficulties, export restrictions or prohibitions, institutions of quota and/or other
measures or acts of any government, international organisation or agency thereof.

Should any such event occur, the Party affected by the Force Majeure event shall as soon as practicable notify the other
Party in writing of the event causing the failure and shall with reasonable diligence furnish all available information on the
cause of the event and estimate the time required to remedy the event.

If the Buyer is the Party affected by the Force Majeure event, the Buyer shall nevertheless be obliged to receive, purchase
and pay for any shipment which, at the time the Seller received the notice of Force Majeure event was in the process of
being loaded, or which had been loaded, aboard a vessel for delivery in accordance with this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this clause, any failure by the Buyer to obtain the necessary permits,
licences or authorisations to perform its obligations under this Agreement shall not constitute a Force Majeure event for any
purpose under this clause.

Nothing herein shall require the Buyer or the Seller to make any settlement or arrangement with any labour union, supplier
or other party which Buyer or Seller respectively deems inadvisable.

The provisions of this clause will apply notwithstanding any delay of performance of either Party at the time the Force
Majeure becomes operative.

Majeure event, the Seller may, at the Seller's sole option, equitably allocate his available supplies from the mine named in
this Agreement to all his affected commitments and reduce the total quantity of Coal to be supplied to the Buyer without
any liability. Equitable allocation may include, at the Seller's sole option, allocation to full shipment sizes and cancellation
of other full shipment sizes. If the allocation results in a reduced shipment size being available for the Buyer, the Buyer
shall have the option to either accept the parcel available for him against reimbursement to the Seller of any and all extra
cost that Seller incurs in the delivery of such reduced parcel, or to cancel the delivery altogether.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally accept, acknowledge and agree that, in the event the
Seller is not the producer of the Coal covered by this Agreement, the occurrence of a Force Majeure event, which effects
the ability of the producer or other third party from which the Seller is sourcing the Coal to supply to the Buyer, shall be
deemed to be a Force Majeure event effecting the ability of the Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
