                                     PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

         NACCO Industries, Inc. ("NACCO" or the "Company") is a holding company
that owns four principal operating subsidiaries that function in three principal
business segments: lignite mining, lift trucks and housewares.

         (a) North American Coal. The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, The
North American Coal Corporation, and its affiliated coal companies
(collectively, "NACoal"), mine and market lignite for use primarily as fuel for
power generation by electric utilities. NACoal also provides dragline mining
services for a limerock quarry near Miami, Florida. NACoal accounted for 11% and
21% of NACCO's revenues and operating profits, respectively, in 1998.

         (b) NACCO Materials Handling Group. The Company owns approximately 98%
of the outstanding capital stock of Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, Inc.
("Hyster-Yale"), which is the sole stockholder of NACCO Materials Handling
Group, Inc. and NMHG Distribution Co. (NACCO Materials Handling Group, Inc.,
NMHG Distribution Co. and Hyster-Yale are hereinafter referred to as "NMHG").
NMHG designs, manufactures and markets a full line of forklift trucks and
related service parts under the Hyster(R) and Yale(R) brand names. NMHG
accounted for 68% and 67% of NACCO's revenues and operating profits,
respectively, in 1998.

         (c) NACCO Housewares Group. NACCO Housewares Group ("Housewares")
consists of two of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries: Hamilton
BeachProctor-Silex, Inc. ("HBPS"), one of the nation's leading manufacturers and
marketers of small electric and heat driven appliances, and The Kitchen
Collection, Inc. ("KCI"), a national specialty retailer of kitchenware,
tableware, small electric appliances and related accessories. Housewares
accounted for 21% and 18% of NACCO's revenues and operating profits,
respectively, in 1998.

Additional information relating to financial and operating data on a segment
basis (including NACCO and Other, which reduced operating profits by 6% in 1998)
is set forth under the heading "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the Company's 1998 Annual
Report (the "1998 Annual Report") and in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements in the 1998 Annual Report, which portions of the 1998 Annual Report
are incorporated herein by reference.

         NACCO was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in 1986 in connection
with the formation of a holding company structure for a predecessor corporation
organized in 1913.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

         In September 1997, Phillips Coal Company and NACoal formed a joint
venture (75% owned by Phillips Coal and 25% owned by NACoal) to develop a new
lignite mine in Mississippi. The 30 year lignite sales contract between the
joint venture and the electric power facility was entered into on April 1, 1998.
Commercial operation of the electric power facility is scheduled for the second
half of 2000.

         In 1998, NMHG completed a restructuring of its organizations around the
world to reduce costs and enhance efficiencies. NMHG centralized the
administrative functions of its Hyster and Yale marketing operations and
relocated those functions to one North American location (Greenville, North
Carolina) and one European location (Fleet, England). NMHG also restructured its
engineering and development function and consolidated that function for
counterbalanced trucks in Portland, Oregon, for warehouse trucks in Greenville,
North Carolina, and for big trucks in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. The
restructuring also involved reorganizing its world headquarters in Portland,
Oregon to focus on global strategic initiatives.

         On December 31, 1997, the Chinese government gave approval for the
formation of Shanghai Hyster Forklift Truck, Ltd., a joint venture (the
"Shanghai Hyster Joint Venture") among NMHG (55% share), Sumitomo-NACCO
Materials Handling Group (30% share) and Shanghai Perfect Jinqiao United
Development Co. (15% share). The Shanghai Hyster Joint Venture acquired land in
the Pudong area of Shanghai and commenced construction of a manufacturing
facility in the second quarter of 1998. NMHG expects production to commence in
the third quarter of 1999. The facility will manufacture Hyster large and medium
capacity lift trucks primarily for sale in the Chinese domestic market. The
Shanghai Hyster Joint Venture will also distribute domestic and imported Hyster
forklift trucks.

         In 1998, NMHG acquired land in Ramos Arizpe (near Saltillo), Mexico and
constructed a manufacturing facility on the land. The Ramos Arizpe facility
manufactures components for shipment primarily to NMHG's plants in the United
States. Production at this facility commenced in the third quarter of 1998.

<PAGE>   3

         In 1998, NMHG embarked on a strategy of permanently acquiring or
investing in certain of its independently-owned Hyster and Yale retail
dealerships. As of March 15, 1999, NMHG had acquired two dealerships in the
United States, seven dealerships in Europe and three dealerships in
Asia-Pacific.

         In early 1998, HBPS completed an expansion of its Saltillo, Mexico
manufacturing plant. Throughout the year, additional operations were moved from
HBPS' North Carolina plants to the Saltillo plant. The lower cost structure at
Saltillo has greatly improved HBPS' ability to compete with low-cost Chinese
imports.

         In December 1998, HBPS entered into an agreement to lease a 500,000
square foot distribution center in Memphis, Tennessee. The new distribution
center is expected to allow HBPS to consolidate its distribution network and
enhance efficiencies and customer service. HBPS expects the new distribution
center to become operational during the second quarter of 1999.

BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

A.       NORTH AMERICAN COAL

GENERAL

         NACoal is engaged in the mining and marketing of lignite for use
primarily as fuel for power generation by electric utilities. Sales by NACoal
are made primarily through wholly owned project mining subsidiaries pursuant to
long-term, cost plus a profit per ton contracts. The utility customers have
arranged and guaranteed the financing of the development and operation of the
project mining subsidiaries. There is no recourse to NACCO or NACoal for the
financing of these subsidiary mines. NACoal also provides dragline mining
services for a limerock quarry near Miami, Florida. At December 31, 1998,
NACoal's operating mines consist of mines where the reserves were acquired and
developed by NACoal, except for the South Hallsville No. 1 Mine and the San
Miguel Lignite Mine where reserves are owned by the customers of these mines.
NACoal also earns royalty income from the lease of various coal and gas
properties. For further information as to the financing of the project mining
subsidiaries, see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements at pages 48
and 49 of the 1998 Annual Report. Project mining subsidiaries accounted for 21%
and 29% of NACCO's assets and liabilities, respectively, as of December 31,
1998, while their operations accounted for 9% and 19% of NACCO's revenues and
operating profits, respectively, in 1998.

SALES, MARKETING AND OPERATIONS

         The principal customers of NACoal are electric utilities and a synfuels
plant. In 1998, sales to one customer, which supplies coal to four facilities,
accounted for 52% of NACoal's revenues compared with 46% and 57% in 1997 and
1996, respectively. The distribution of sales in the last five years has been as
follows:

</TABLE>

         The contracts under which the project mining subsidiaries were
organized provide that, under certain conditions of default, the customer(s)
involved may elect to acquire the assets (subject to the liabilities) or the
capital stock of the subsidiary, for an amount effectively equal to book value.
In one case, the customer may elect to acquire the stock of the subsidiary after
a specified period of time without reference to default, in exchange for certain
payments on coal thereafter mined. NACoal does not know of any conditions of
default that currently exist.

         The location, mine type, reserve data, coal quality characteristics,
customer, sales tonnage and contract expiration date for the mines operated by
NACoal in 1998 were as follows:

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

         NACoal, in common with other coal producers, continues to be subject to
Federal and state health, safety and environmental regulations. The 1999
expenditures which will be required for compliance with the provisions of
governmental regulations, including mined land reclamation and other air and
water pollution abatement requirements, are estimated at $7.6 million for
certain closed mines and are included in the caption "Self-Insurance Reserves
and Other" in NACCO's Consolidated Financial Statements in the 1998 Annual
Report. The active operations are required to make certain additional capital
expenditures to comply with such governmental regulations, which expenditures
will be recovered under the terms of the coal sales agreements with the utility
customers.

         NACoal's management believes that the Clean Air Act Amendments, which
became effective in 1990, have not had and will not have a material adverse
effect on its current operations, because substantially all of the power
generating facilities operated or supplied by NACoal's customers meet or exceed
the requirements of the Clean Air Act.

COMPETITION

         The coal industry competes with other sources of energy, particularly
oil, gas, hydro-electric power and nuclear power. Among the factors that affect
competition are the price and availability of oil and natural gas, environmental
considerations, the time and expenditures required to develop new energy
sources, the cost of transportation, the cost of compliance with governmental
regulation of operations, the impact of Federal and state energy policies and
the current trend toward deregulation of energy markets. The ability of NACoal
to market and develop its reserves will depend upon the interaction of these
factors.

         There is no official source of information on the subject, but NACoal
believes that it is the ninth largest coal producer in the United States.

EMPLOYEES

         As of February 28, 1999, NACoal had approximately 1000 employees.

B.       NACCO MATERIALS HANDLING GROUP

GENERAL

         NMHG is one of the leading worldwide designers, manufacturers and
marketers of forklift trucks, which comprise the largest segment of the
materials handling equipment industry. NMHG accounted for 57% and 47% of NACCO's
assets and liabilities, respectively, as of December 31, 1998, while its
operations accounted for 68% and 67% of NACCO's revenues and operating profits,
respectively, in 1998.

THE INDUSTRY

         Forklift trucks are used in a wide variety of business applications,
including manufacturing and warehousing. The materials handling industry,
especially in industrialized nations, is generally a mature industry, which has
historically been cyclical. Fluctuations in the rate of orders for forklift
trucks reflect the capital investment decisions of the customers, which in turn
depend upon the general level of economic activity in the various industries
served by such customers.

         Since 1991, the worldwide market for forklift trucks has gradually
increased to approximately 500,000 units. During this time, however, individual
geographic markets have been subject to cyclicality. The North American market
for forklift trucks peaked in 1995, began a cyclical downturn in 1996 and then
recovered to a new high in 1998. The European market reversed a declining trend
in 1994 and has steadily grown to a new high in 1998. The Japanese market
reversed a growth trend in 1998 as a result of the widely publicized financial
problems in Japan in 1998. The market in Asia-Pacific (outside of Japan)
continued modest growth in 1996 and the first half of 1997. However, the
late-1997 Asian financial crisis, which continued through 1998, has negatively
affected lift truck demand in that part of the world. For further information,
see the 1998 Annual Report under the heading "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Outlook. "

COMPANY OPERATIONS

         NMHG maintains product differentiation between Hyster and Yale brands
of forklift trucks and distributes its products through separate worldwide
dealer networks. Nevertheless, NMHG has integrated overlapping operations and
takes advantage of economies of scale in design, manufacturing and purchasing.
NMHG provides virtually all of its own design, manufacturing and administrative
functions. Products are marketed and sold through two separate dealer networks
which retain and promote the Hyster and Yale identities. In Japan, NMHG has a
50% owned joint venture with Sumitomo Heavy Industries Ltd. which is generally
known as Sumitomo-NACCO Materials Handling Group ("S-N"). S-N 


                                       4
<PAGE>   6

performs certain design activities and produces lift trucks and components which
it markets in Japan under the name "Sumitomo Yale" and which are exported for
sale by NMHG and its affiliates in the U.S., Europe and Asia-Pacific.

PRODUCT LINES

         NMHG designs and manufactures a wide range of forklift trucks under
both the Hyster and Yale brand names. The principal categories of forklift
trucks include electric rider, electric narrow-aisle and electric motorized hand
forklift trucks primarily for indoor use and internal combustion engine ("ICE")
forklift trucks for indoor or outdoor use. Forklift truck sales accounted for
approximately 83%, 82% and 84% of NMHG's net sales in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

         NMHG also derives significant revenues from the sale of service parts
for its products. Profit margins on service parts are greater than those on
forklift trucks. The large population of Hyster and Yale forklift trucks now in
service provides a market for service parts. In addition to parts for its own
forklift trucks, NMHG has a program in North America, UNISOURCE(TM), and in
Europe, MULTIQUIP(TM), designed to supply Hyster dealers with replacement parts
for most competing brands of forklift trucks. NMHG has a similar program,
PREMIER(TM), for its Yale dealers in the Americas and Europe. Accordingly, NMHG
dealers can offer their mixed fleet customers a "one stop" supply source.
Certain of these parts are manufactured by and purchased from third party
component makers. Service parts accounted for approximately 17%, 18% and 16% of
NMHG net sales in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. For further information on
geographic regions, see Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the
1998 Annual Report.

COMPETITION

         The forklift truck industry is highly competitive. The worldwide
competitive structure of the industry is fragmented by product line and country;
however, the three largest manufacturers have a significantly greater market
position on a unit volume basis than the other manufacturers. The principal
methods of competition among forklift truck manufacturers are product
performance, price, service and distribution networks. The forklift truck
industry also competes with alternative methods of materials handling, including
conveyor systems, automated guided vehicle systems and manual labor. Global
competition is also affected by a number of other factors, including currency
fluctuations, variations in labor costs and effective tax rates, and the costs
related to compliance with applicable regulations, including export restraints,
antidumping provisions and environmental regulations.

         Although there is no official source for information on the subject,
NACCO believes that in 1998 NMHG was one of the leading manufacturers of
forklift trucks in the world, based on the number of lift trucks sold.

         NMHG's position is strongest in North America, where it believes it is
the leader in unit sales of electric rider and ICE forklift trucks and has a
significant share of unit sales of electric narrow-aisle and electric motorized
hand forklift trucks. Although the European market is fragmented and competitive
positions vary from country to country, NMHG believes that it has a significant
share of unit sales of electric rider and ICE forklift trucks in Western Europe.
Although NMHG's current market share in the Asia-Pacific, Chinese and Japanese
markets is lower than in other geographic areas, these markets have been
targeted for additional opportunities. However, the late-1997 Asian financial
crisis, which continued through 1998, has negatively affected lift truck demand
in that part of the world.

TRADE RESTRICTIONS

A.       UNITED STATES

         Since June 1988, Japanese-built ICE forklift trucks imported into the
U.S., with lifting capacities between 2,000 and 15,000 pounds, including
finished and unfinished forklift trucks, chassis, frames and frames assembled
with one or more component parts, have been subject to an antidumping duty
order. Antidumping duty rates in effect through 1998 range from 7.39% to 56.81%
depending on manufacturer or importer. The antidumping duty rate applicable to
imports from S-N is 51.33%. NMHG does not currently import for sale in the
United States any forklift trucks or components subject to the antidumping duty
order. This antidumping duty order will remain in effect until the Japanese
manufacturers and importers satisfy the U.S. Department of Commerce (the
"Commerce Department") that they have not individually sold merchandise subject
to the order in the United States below foreign market value for at least three
consecutive years, or unless the Commerce Department or the U.S. International
Trade Commission finds that changed circumstances exist sufficient to warrant
the retirement of the order. The legislation implementing the Uruguay round of
GATT negotiations passed in 1994 provides that the antidumping order will be
reviewed for possible retirement in 2000. All of NMHG's major Japanese
competitors have either built or acquired manufacturing or assembly facilities
in the United States. NMHG cannot predict with any certainty if 

                                       5
<PAGE>   7


there have been or will be any negative effects to it resulting from Japanese
manufacturers sourcing their forklift products from the United States. NMHG
intends to oppose retirement of the antidumping duty in 2000, but cannot predict
if it will be successful or what the effect would be on NMHG if the order is
retired.

B.       EUROPE

         From 1986 through 1994, Japanese forklift truck manufacturers were
subject to informal export restraints on Japanese-manufactured electric rider,
electric narrow-aisle and ICE forklift trucks shipped to Europe. These informal
restraints terminated in 1995. Several Japanese manufacturers have established
manufacturing or assembly facilities within the European Union.

PRODUCT DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT

         NMHG spent $38.6 million, $23.5 million and $23.3 million on product
design and development activities in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
Hyster and Yale products are differentiated for the specific needs of their
respective customer bases. NMHG continues to pursue opportunities to improve
product costs by engineering new Hyster and Yale brand products with component
commonality.

         Certain product design and development activities with respect to ICE
forklift trucks and some components are performed in Japan by S-N. S-N spent
approximately $4.3 million, $4.1 million and $4.2 million on product design and
development in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

BACKLOG

         As of December 31, 1998, NMHG's backlog of unfilled orders for forklift
trucks was approximately 19,500 units, or $350 million, of which substantially
all is expected to be filled during fiscal 1999. This compares to the backlog as
of December 31, 1997 of approximately 22,100 units, or $392 million. Increased
production and a slight reduction in the rate of incoming orders for forklift
trucks in 1998 caused this slight decline in backlog levels. Backlog represents
unit orders to NMHG's manufacturing plants from independent dealerships, retail
customers and contracts with the U.S. Government. Although these orders are
believed to be firm, such orders may be subject to cancellation or modification.

SOURCES

         NMHG has adopted a strategy of obtaining its raw materials and
principal components on a global basis from competitively priced sources. NMHG
is dependent on a limited number of suppliers for certain of its critical
components, including diesel and gasoline engines and cast-iron counterweights
used on certain forklift trucks. There would be a material adverse effect on
NMHG if it were unable to obtain all or a significant portion of such
components, or if the cost of such components was to increase significantly
under circumstances which prevented NMHG from passing on such increases to its
customers.

DISTRIBUTION

         The Hyster and Yale brand products are distributed through separate
highly developed worldwide dealer networks which are primarily independently
owned. In addition, NMHG has an internal sales force for each brand to sell
directly to major customers. In Japan, forklift truck products are distributed
by S-N.

         In 1998, NMHG embarked on a strategy of permanently acquiring or
investing in certain of its independently-owned Hyster and Yale retail
dealerships. NMHG believes its expansion into retail distribution will be
beneficial because of the significant revenue and profit stream that occurs at
the retail level from new and used unit sales, part sales, rental income and
maintenance and repair business. NMHG believes that ownership of retail dealers
will ensure strategic alignment of its manufacturing with its distribution and
will streamline its distribution channel. NMHG's ownership and operation of
retail dealers will allow it to financially strengthen this portion of its
distribution organization. NMHG's goal is to have a combination of large, well
capitalized, professionally run independent and company-owned dealers. For
further information, see the 1998 Annual Report under the heading "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

         As of March 15, 1999, NMHG has acquired two dealerships in the United
States, seven dealerships in Europe and three dealerships in Asis-Pacific. NMHG
expects to complete a significant number of additional dealer acquisitions
throughout the world in 1999.


                                       6

<PAGE>   8

         NMHG has added personnel throughout its worldwide organizational
structure to staff its emerging retail business. NMHG competes in this arena
with its own independent Hyster or Yale dealers, independently-owned dealers for
competing brands, dealerships owned by competing manufacturers,
independently-owned rental fleets and independent maintenance and repair
businesses. NMHG has experience prior to 1992 operating company-owned Hyster and
Yale dealers and believes it has the experience, personnel and resources to be
successful in the retail distribution end of the materials handling business.

FINANCING OF SALES

         In 1998, NMHG amended its existing joint venture agreement with General
Electric Capital Corporation ("GE Capital") to provide that GE Capital would
furnish leasing and financing services to selected Hyster dealers in North
America in addition to the North American Yale dealers GE Capital was already
supporting under the agreement. NMHG owns 20% of the joint venture entity, NMHG
Financial Services, Inc., and is entitled to certain fees and remarketing
profits. In addition, NMHG entered into an International Operating Agreement
with GE Capital pursuant to which GE Capital will provide leasing and financing
services to Hyster and Yale dealers throughout the major countries of the world
and make referral fee payments to NMHG once certain thresholds are met. The
agreements expire in 2003.

         Hyster U.S. dealer and direct sales of Hyster products in the U.S. also
are supported by leasing and financing services provided by Hyster Credit
Company, a division of AT&T Capital, pursuant to an operating agreement that
expires in 2000.

         As of February 28, 1999, NMHG had approximately 7,000 employees.
Employees in the Danville, Illinois manufacturing and parts depot operations
(approximately 773 employees) are unionized, as are tool room employees
(approximately 22 employees) located in Portland, Oregon. A three-year contract
for the Danville union employees expires in June 2000. A one-year contract with
the Portland tool room union expires in October 1999. Employees at the
facilities in Berea, Kentucky; Sulligent, Alabama; and Greenville and Lenoir,
North Carolina are not represented by unions.

         In Europe, shop employees in the Craigavon, Northern Ireland facility
are unionized. Employees in the Irvine, Scotland and Nijmegen, the Netherlands
facilities are not represented by unions. The employees in Nijmegen have
organized a works council, as required by Dutch law, which performs a
consultative role on employment matters.

         NMHG's management believes its current labor relations with both union
and non-union employees are generally satisfactory and that it will be able to
renew the Portland union contract in 1999 on acceptable terms.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

         NMHG's manufacturing facilities, in common with others in the industry,
are subject to numerous laws and regulations designed to protect the
environment, particularly with respect to disposal of plant waste. NMHG's
products are also subject to various industry and governmental standards. NMHG's
management believes that the impact of expenditures to comply with such
requirements will not have a material adverse effect on NMHG.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND LICENSES

         NMHG is not materially dependent upon patents or patent protection.
NMHG is the owner of the Hyster trademark, which is currently registered in
approximately 55 countries. The Yale trademark, which is used on a perpetual
royalty-free basis by NMHG in connection with the manufacture and sale of
forklift trucks and related components, is currently registered in approximately
150 countries. NMHG's management believes that its business is not dependent
upon any individual trademark registration or license, but that the Hyster and
Yale trademarks are material to its business.

C.       NACCO HOUSEWARES GROUP

GENERAL

         In the second quarter of 1998, NACCO began reporting the results of
HB*PS and KCI on a combined basis as the NACCO Housewares Group. HB*PS believes
that it is the largest full-line manufacturer and marketer of small electric
household appliances in North America based on market share of key product
categories. HB*PS' products are marketed primarily to retail merchants and
wholesale distributors. KCI is a national specialty retailer of kitchenware,
small electric appliances and related accessories that operated 145 retail
stores as of February 28, 1999. Stores are located primarily in factory outlet
complexes that feature merchandise of highly recognizable name-brand
manufacturers, including HB*PS. Housewares accounted for 18% and 13% of NACCO's
assets and liabilities, respectively, as of December 31, 1998, while its
operations accounted for 21% and 18% of NACCO's revenues and operating profits,
respectively, in 1998.

SALES AND MARKETING

          HB*PS manufactures and markets a wide range of small electric
household appliances, including motor driven appliances such as blenders, food
processors, mixers and electric knives, and heat-generating appliances such as
toasters, irons, coffeemakers, indoor grills and toaster ovens. HB*PS also makes
commercial products for restaurants, bars and hotels. HB*PS generally markets
its "better" and "best" segments under the Hamilton Beach(R) brand and uses the
Proctor-Silex(R) brand for the "good" and "better" segments. HB*PS generally
markets its products primarily in North America, but also sells products in
Latin America, Asia and Europe. Sales are generated predominantly by a network
of inside sales employees to mass merchandisers, national department stores,
variety store chains, drug store chains, catalog showrooms and other retail
outlets. Principal customers include Wal-Mart, Kmart, Target, Canadian Tire,
Zellers, SAM'S Club, Dollar General, Sears and Ames. Sales promotional
activities are primarily focused on cooperative advertising.

          Because of the seasonal nature of the markets for small electric
appliances, HB*PS' management believes that backlog is not a meaningful
indicator of performance and is not a significant indicator of annual sales.
Backlog of orders as of December 31, 1998 was approximately $5.5 million. This
compares with the aggregate backlog as of December 31, 1997 of approximately
$11.0 million. This backlog represents customer orders, which may be canceled at
any time prior to shipment.

         HB*PS' warranty program to the consumer consists generally of a limited
warranty lasting for two years for electric appliances. Under its warranty
program, HB*PS may repair or replace, at its option, those products found to
contain manufacturing defects.

         Revenues and operating profit for Housewares are traditionally greater
in the second half of the year as sales of small electric appliances to
retailers and consumers increase significantly with the fall holiday selling
season. Because of the seasonality of purchases of its products, HB*PS incurs
substantial short-term debt to finance inventories and accounts receivable
during this period.

PRODUCT DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT

         The Housewares Group spent $5.5 million in 1998, $4.4 million in 1997
and $3.7 million in 1996 on product design and development activities. All of
these expenditures were made by HB*PS.

SOURCES

         The principal raw materials used to manufacture and distribute HB*PS'
products are steel, aluminum, plastic and packaging materials. HB*PS' management
believes that adequate quantities of raw materials are available from various
suppliers.

COMPETITION

         The small electric household appliance industry is highly competitive.
Based on publicly available information about the industry, HB*PS' management
believes it is the largest full-line manufacturer and marketer of small
household appliances in North America based on key product categories.

         As retailers generally purchase a limited selection of small electric
appliances, HB*PS competes with other suppliers for retail shelf space and
focuses its primary marketing efforts on retailers rather than consumers. In
1996, HB*PS also initiated consumer advertising for the Hamilton Beach(R) brand.
HB*PS' management believes that the principal areas of competition with respect
to its products are quality, price, product design, product features,
merchandising, promotion and warranty. HB*PS' management believes that it is
competitive in all of these areas.

<PAGE>   10

         As the outlet channel of the retail industry is approaching maturity,
the management of KCI continues to explore alternate areas of growth and
diversification. For the past several years, KCI has been testing alternative
store formats both within the outlet industry and the more traditional retail
environments. Not all of these formats have met KCI's rigorous financial
performance standards. KCI continues to explore alternate channels of
distribution, including distribution through the Internet.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

          HB*PS, in common with other manufacturers, is subject to numerous
Federal and state health, safety and environmental regulations. HB*PS'
management believes that the impact of expenditures to comply with such laws
will not have a material adverse effect on HB*PS. HB*PS' products are subject to
testing or regulation by Underwriters' Laboratories, the Canadian Standards
Association and various entities in foreign countries that review product
design.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, COPYRIGHTS AND LICENSES

         HB*PS holds patents and trademarks registered in the United States and
foreign countries for various products. HB*PS' management believes that its
business is not dependent upon any individual patent, trademark, copyright or
license, but that the Hamilton Beach and Proctor-Silex trademarks are material
to its business.

EMPLOYEES

         As of February 28, 1999, Housewares' work force consisted of
approximately 5,650 employees, most of which are not represented by unions. In
Canada, approximately 20 hourly employees at HB*PS' Picton, Ontario distribution
facility are unionized. These employees are represented by an employee
association which performs a consultative role on employment matters. On
February 1, 1999, a collective bargaining agreement was executed for HB*PS'
Saltillo manufacturing facility. There are approximately 1,120 employees subject
to the terms of this agreement.

         The management of HB*PS and KCI believe their current labor relations
with both union and non-union employees are satisfactory.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

A.       NACCO

         NACCO currently leases its corporate headquarters building in Mayfield
Heights, Ohio.

B.       NACOAL

         NACoal's proven and probable coal reserves and deposits (owned in fee
or held under leases which generally remain in effect until exhaustion of the
reserves if mining is in progress) are estimated at approximately 2.0 billion
tons, approximately 83% of which are lignite deposits in North Dakota. Reserves
are estimates of quantities of coal, made by NACoal's geological and engineering
staff, that are considered mineable in the future using existing operating
methods. Developed reserves are those which have been allocated to mines which
are in operation; all other reserves are classified as undeveloped. Information
concerning mine type, reserve data and coal quality characteristics for NACoal's
properties are set forth on the table on page 3 under "Item 1. Business -- A.
NACoal -- Sales, Marketing and Operations."

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


     To the Stockholders of NACCO Industries, Inc.:


              We have audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing
     standards, the consolidated financial statements included in NACCO
     Industries, Inc.'s annual report to stockholders, incorporated by reference
     in this Form 10-K, and have issued our report thereon dated February 9,
     1999. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on those
     statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed in the index are the
     responsibility of the Company's management and are presented for purposes
     of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are
     not part of the basic consolidated financial statements. These schedules
     have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the
     basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly state
     in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth
     therein in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as
     a whole.

                     1999 ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
================================================================================

1.       Purpose of the Plan
         -------------------

         The purpose of the NACCO Industries, Inc. 1999 Annual Incentive
Compensation Plan (the "Plan") is to further the profits and growth of NACCO
Industries, Inc. (the "Company") by enabling the Company to attract and retain
key employees of the Company by offering annual incentive compensation to those
key employees who will be in a position to help the Company to meet its
financial and business objectives.

2.       Definitions
         -----------

         (a) "Award" means cash paid to a Participant under the Plan for the
Award Term in an amount determined in accordance with Section 4.

         (b) "Award Term" means the period from January 1, 1999 through December
31, 1999.

         (c) "Base Amount" means for any Participant a dollar amount, which
shall be equal to the salary midpoint for the Salary Points assigned to the
Participant by the Committee for the Award Term multiplied by 60% of the
short-term incentive compensation target percent for those Salary Points.
Attached hereto as EXHIBIT A is a schedule listing the Base Amount for each
Participant for the Award Term.

         (d) "Committee" means the Nominating, Organization and Compensation
Committee of the Company's Board of Directors or any other committee appointed
by the Company's Board of Directors to administer this Plan in accordance with
Section 3, so long as any such committee consists of not less than two directors
of the Company and so long as each member of the Committee is not an employee of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

         (e) "Participant" means any salaried employee of the Company 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 Company who are not Participants.
Directors of the Company who are also employees of the Company are eligible 

<PAGE>   2



to participate in the Plan. Employees of the Company's subsidiaries shall not be
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. Each Participant shall be notified
that he is eligible to receive an Award for such term and the amount of his Base
Amount. If a Participant receives a change in Salary Points, salary midpoint
and/or short-term incentive compensation target percent, such change and any
resulting change in his Base Amount will be reflected on an amended EXHIBIT A.
Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, a Participant must be both
employed by the Company and a Participant on December 31 of the Award Term, and
the amount of any Award to a Participant who was not also employed by the
Company and a Participant on the first day of the Award Term shall be not more
than the pro-rated amount based upon the number of days actually employed by the
Company in the Award Term. Attached hereto as EXHIBIT A is a schedule listing
the Participants for the Award Term.

         (f) "Salary Points" means the salary points assigned to a Participant
by the Committee pursuant to the Hay salary point system, or any successor
salary point system adopted by the Committee.

3.       Administration
         --------------

         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 Company and all present and former Participants, all other employees of the
Company, 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.

4.       Awards

following provisions:

<PAGE>   3


         (a) PERFORMANCE TARGETS. The Committee shall determine performance
target descriptions, weightings and targets for the Award Term, which shall be
attached hereto as EXHIBIT B. The Committee shall have the power to add, delete
and amend target descriptions, weightings and targets during the Award Term,
which shall be reflected on an amended EXHIBIT B. No performance targets used in
this Plan shall be used in the Company's Supplemental Annual Incentive
Compensation Plan in the same year.

         (b) AWARDS. Following the end of the Award Term, the Committee shall
compare the actual performance against the performance targets for each of the
performance target descriptions. Based thereupon, the Committee shall determine
the total payout percentage under the Plan (the "Payout Percentage"). The
Committee shall then determine the Award for each Participant, which shall be
equal to the Participant's Base Amount, multiplied by the Payout Percentage, and
further adjusted by such other factors, including an individual performance
factor for each Participant, as the Committee shall determine are appropriate;
provided, however, that no Award may be made to any Participant which exceeds
150% of his Base Amount. Promptly following the approval of the final Awards,
the Company shall pay the amount of such Awards to the Participants in cash,
subject to all withholdings and deductions pursuant to Section 5; provided,
however, that no Award shall be payable to a Participant except as determined by
the Committee.

5.       Withholding Taxes
         -----------------

         Any Award paid to a Participant under this Plan, shall be subject to
standard federal, state and local income tax, social security and other standard
withholdings and deductions.

6.       Amendment and Termination
         -------------------------

         The Committee may alter or amend this Plan from time to time or
terminate it in its entirety; provided, however, that no such action shall,
without the consent of a Participant, affect the rights in an outstanding Award
of such Participant.

7.       General Provisions
         ------------------

         (a) NO RIGHT OF EMPLOYMENT. Neither the adoption or operation of this
Plan, nor any document describing or referring to this Plan, or any part
thereof, shall confer upon any employee any right to continue in the employ of
the Company, or shall in any way affect the right and power of the Company to
terminate the employment of any employee at any time with or without assigning a
reason therefor to the same extent as the Company might have done if this Plan
had not been adopted.

                        1999 INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

SUMMARY

The Incentive Compensation Plan (Plan) offers a highly attractive incentive
compensation opportunity to senior managers when all performance objectives
under their control or influence are achieved. This is accomplished through a
structure containing the following elements:

            -     Each participant is assigned an individual incentive target,
                  stated as a percentage of his salary midpoint, that
                  establishes the incentive compensation amount he will receive
                  when performance objectives are met.

            -     The individual target amount is allocated among the following
                  performance components:

                  -        North American Coal (NAC) corporate performance.
                  -        Bellaire Corporation cash flow.
                  -        Business unit results.
                  -        Individual achievement.

           -      Percentage weightings are assigned to each component, based on
                  the participant's accountabilities and their impact on each
                  component.

           -      One or more performance objectives will be established at the
                  beginning of the year for each performance component.

           -      A performance range, which defines the acceptable level of
                  results, from threshold to maximum, is created for each
                  performance objective.

           -      A payout range is defined, which provides for incentive
                  payments of up to 150 percent of the incentive target, except
                  to the extent the Committee elects to increase the actual pool
                  by up to 10 percent, as described below.

           -      A performance/payout schedule combines the two ranges into a
                  matrix that defines the level of incentive compensation
                  payment that will result from each level of performance.

           -      After audited financials are available, awards will be
                  calculated based on actual results compared to the established
                  objectives.

           -      A final individual performance adjustment may be made based on
                  a judgment of the participant's overall performance, as long
                  as the total of all incentive payments does not exceed the
                  actual pool.

This Incentive Compensation Plan will allow management and the Board to
establish, in advance, the performance expectations and related incentive
compensation potential that NAC's executives can expect for the year. At
year-end, the Plan requires that the management team's performance be based on
predetermined objectives. This should produce fairness in the determination of
rewards.

PLAN STRUCTURE

         INDIVIDUAL INCENTIVE TARGETS
         ----------------------------

         The primary focus of the proposed Plan is the individual incentive
         compensation target. Each participant is assigned a target, stated as a
         percentage of the mid-point of base salary, which will be paid when all
         relevant performance objectives are achieved. The Plan provides for
         payments above or below the target to reflect acceptable variances from
         performance objectives.

         PERFORMANCE GOALS
         -----------------

         Four sets of goals are proposed:

                                    INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK

         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:

<TABLE>

                                                % OF
                AWARD LEVEL                    TARGET                            DESCRIPTION
           ----------------------          ----------------        -----------------------------------------
        <S>                                     <C>               <C>                               
           Maximum                                 150%             Highest level of incentive paid.

           Target                                  100%             Competitive incentive opportunity for
                                                                    achieving all important goals.

           Threshold                                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 executive has the most
         control. Weightings will be stated as a percentage and total 100
         percent for each participant. The weightings will be established each
         year to reflect current organizational accountabilities and the
         relative importance of the various performance components. Our
         recommended weightings are as follows:

                            INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK

         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 should be determined for each goal based on the
         definitions.

</TABLE>

         PERFORMANCE/PAYOUT SCHEDULE
         ---------------------------

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

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>


            PERFORMANCE                DEFINITION               RESULTS          AWARD LEVELS          PAYOUT

            Threshold             Minimum                          75%          Threshold                50%

            Objective             On plan                         100%          Target                  100%

            Maximum               Exceeding expectations          125%          Maximum                 150%
</TABLE>

         This schedule 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
         -------------------------------

         No incentive compensation awards will be earned under the Plan in any
         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, based on management's judgment of each individual's overall
         performance.

         PARTIAL AWARDS
         --------------

         Executives who are hired or promoted during the year to positions
         eligible for participation in the Plan may be included in the Plan on a
         prorata basis.

         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. However, the Committee, in its sole
         discretion, may increase or decrease, by up to 10 percent, the total
         incentive compensation or may approve an incentive compensation payment
         where normally there would be no payment, due to corporate performance
         which is below the criteria established for the year.

                       THE NORTH AMERICAN COAL CORPORATION
               DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR MANAGEMENT EMPLOYEES


                  The North American Coal Corporation (the "Company") does
hereby adopt this amendment and restatement of The North American Coal
Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan for Management Employees, effective
January 1, 1999.

restatement of the Plan is January 1, 1999.

                  SECTION 1.2. PURPOSE OF THE PLAN. The purpose of this Plan is
to (a) allow certain Employees to defer the receipt of certain long-term
incentive compensation award payments and (b) provide for certain Employees the
benefits they would have received under the Savings Plan but for the limitations
imposed under Sections 402(g), 401(a)(17), 401(k)(3), 401(m) and 415 of the
Code.

                  SECTION 1.3. GOVERNING LAW. This Plan shall be regulated,
construed and administered under the laws of the State of Ohio, except when
preempted by federal law.

                           EXCESS RETIREMENT BENEFITS
                           --------------------------

                  SECTION 3.1 BASIC AND ADDITIONAL EXCESS 401(K) BENEFITS.

                  (a) AMOUNT OF EXCESS 401(K) BENEFITS. Each Participant may,
prior to the first day of any Plan Year or within 30 days of becoming a
Participant hereunder, by completing a "Deferral Election Form" direct his
Employer to reduce his Compensation for such Plan Year and, subject to
Subsection (e) below, subsequent Plan Years, by an amount equal to the
difference between (i) a certain percentage, in 1% increments, with a maximum of
15%, of his Compensation for the Plan Year, and (ii) the maximum Before-Tax
Contributions actually permitted to be contributed for him to the Savings Plan
by reason of the application of the limitations under Sections 402(g),
401(a)(17), 401(k)(3) and 415 of the Code (which amounts shall be referred to as
the "Excess 401(k) Benefits").

                  (b) CLASSIFICATION OF EXCESS 401(K) BENEFITS. The Excess
401(k) Benefits for a particular Plan Year shall be calculated monthly and shall
be further divided into the "Basic Excess 401(k) Benefits" and the "Additional
Excess 401(k) Benefits" as follows:

                  (i)      The Basic Excess 401(k) Benefits shall be determined
                           by multiplying each Excess 401(k) Benefit by a
                           fraction, the numerator of which is the lesser of the
                           percentage of Compensation elected to be deferred in
                           the Deferral Election Form for such Plan Year or 7%
                           and the denominator

                                                                               5


                           of which is the percentage of Compensation elected to
                           be deferred; and

                  (ii)     The Additional Excess 401(k) Benefits (if any) shall
                           be determined by multiplying such Excess 401(k)
                           Benefit by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
                           difference between (1)the percentage of Compensation
                           elected to be deferred in the Deferral Election Form
                           for such Plan Year and (2) 7%, and the denominator of
                           which is the percentage of Compensation elected to be
                           deferred.

The Basic Excess 401(k) Benefits shall be credited to the Basic Excess 401(k)
Sub-Account under this Plan and the Additional Excess 401(k) Benefits shall be
credited to the Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Account hereunder. The Basic and
Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Accounts shall be referred to collectively as the
"Excess 401(k) Sub-Account."

                  (c) DEFERRAL PERIOD. The Deferral Election Form shall also
contain such Participant's irrevocable election regarding the time of the
commencement of payment of the Excess 401(k) Benefits to which such Form relate.
Payment elections made prior to the Effective Date shall continue to govern the
timing of the payment of amounts credited to the Participant's Excess
401(k)Sub-Account as of the Effective Date. In the Deferral Election Form, such
Participant may elect to commence payment of his Excess 401(k) Sub-Account on(i)
the date on which he ceases to be an Employee of the Controlled Group, (ii) the
date on which he attains an age specified in the Deferral Election Form, or
(iii) the earlier or later of such dates.

                  (d) FORM OF PAYMENT. In the Deferral Election Form, the
Participant shall also elect whether to receive his Excess 401(k) and Excess
Matching Benefits to which such Form relate in the form of a lump sum payment or
in annual installments for a period not exceeding ten years.

                  (e) EFFECT AND DURATION OF DEFERRAL ELECTION. Any direction by
a Participant to make deferrals of Excess 401(k) Benefits hereunder shall be
effective with respect to Compensation otherwise payable to the Participant
during the Plan Year for which the Deferral Election is effective, and the
Participant shall not be eligible to receive such Excess 401(k) Benefits.
Instead, such amounts shall be credited to the Participant's Basic or Additional
Excess 401(k) Sub-Account (as applicable). Any direction made in accordance with
Subsection (a) above shall be irrevocable and shall remain in effect for
subsequent Plan Years unless changed or terminated by the Participant for Plan
Years commencing after such change or termination, on the appropriate form
provided by the Plan Administrator, prior to the first day of any subsequent
Plan Year.

                  (f) AUTOMATIC TERMINATION/SUSPENSION OF DEFERRAL ELECTION.

                  (i) A Participant's direction to make deferrals of Excess

which (1) the Participant ceases employment with the Employers, (2) the
Participant's Employer is deemed Insolvent, (3) the Participant is no longer
eligible to make deferrals of Excess 401(k) Benefits hereunder or (4) the Plan
is terminated.

                  (ii) Any Participant whose eligibility to make Before-Tax
Contributions to the Savings Plan has been suspended for any reason (including
the taking of a hardship withdrawal thereunder) shall not be eligible to defer

Savings Plan.

                  (iii) The Plan Administrator may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, pursuant to nondiscriminatory rules adopted by it, reduce and/or
cease the deferral of Excess 401(k) Benefits being made by one or more
Participants, to the extent deemed necessary or desirable in order to satisfy
the requirements of any applicable law (including, without limitation, federal
securities laws).

                  SECTION 3.2. EXCESS MATCHING BENEFITS.

                           (a) AMOUNT. A Participant shall have credited to his
Basic or Additional Excess Matching Sub-Account (as applicable) an amount equal
to the Matching Contributions attributable to the Basic or Additional Excess
401(k) Benefits that he is prevented from receiving under the Savings Plan
because of the limitations imposed under Code Sections 402(g), 401(a)(17),
401(k)(3), 401(m) and 415 of the Code (collectively, the "Excess Matching
Benefits").

                           (b) TIME AND FORM OF PAYMENT. The Excess Matching
Benefits shall be paid (or commence to be paid) at the same time and in the same
form as the Excess 401(k) Benefits to which they relate (as specified in the
Deferral Election Form applicable to such Benefits).

                  SECTION 3.4 VAP DEFERRAL BENEFITS.

                  (a) AMOUNT. Each Participant (as defined in Section 2.10(b))
may, with the consent of the Company, by completing an approved deferral
election form, direct his Employer:

                  (i) to reduce an Award (as that term is defined in the VAP
Plan) payable under the VAP Plan by a specified dollar amount or percentage; and

                  (ii) to credit the amount of the reduction (the "VAP Deferral
Benefits") to the VAP Deferral Sub-Account hereunder. Such election must be made
no later than one-year prior to the date such Award would otherwise be payable
to the Participant

                                                                               7

under the VAP Plan or at such other time as approved by the Company, in its sole
and absolute discretion.

                  (b) DEFERRAL PERIOD. The deferral election made by a
Participant under Subsection (a) above shall also contain such Participant's
irrevocable election regarding the time of the commencement of payment of the
VAP Deferral Benefits. The Participant may elect to commence payment of his VAP
Deferral Benefits on (i) the date on which he ceases to be an Employee of the
Controlled Group, (ii) the date on which he attains an age specified in the
deferral form, or (iii) the earlier or later of such dates.

                  (c) EFFECT OF DEFERRAL ELECTION. Any direction by a
Participant to defer receipt of all or part of an Award under the VAP Plan and
to receive VAP Deferral Benefits in lieu thereof shall be irrevocable with
respect to such Award.

                  (d) AUTOMATIC TERMINATION OF DEFERRAL ELECTION.

                  (i) A Participant's direction to defer an Award under the VAP
Plan shall automatically terminate on the earlier of the date on which (1) the
Participant ceases employment with the Controlled Group, (2) the Participant
ceases to satisfy the requirements of Section 2.8(b), (3) the Participant's
Employer is deemed Insolvent or (4) the Plan is terminated.

                  (ii) The Plan Administrator may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, pursuant to nondiscriminatory rules adopted by the Plan
Administrator, reduce and/or cease the deferral of VAP Deferral Benefits being
made by one or more Participants, to the extent deemed necessary or desirable in
order to satisfy the requirements of any applicable law (including, without
limitation, federal securities laws).

                  SECTION 3.4. PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS. Each Employer shall
establish and maintain on its books for each Participant who is an Employee of
such Employer an Account which shall contain the following entries:

                  (a) Credits to a Basic or Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Account
(as applicable) for the Excess 401(k) Benefits described in Section 3.1, which
shall be credited to the Sub-Account when a Participant is prevented from making
a Before-Tax Contribution under the Savings Plan;

                  (b) Credits to a Basic or Additional Excess Matching
Sub-Account (as applicable) for the Excess Matching Benefits described in
Section 3.2, which shall be credited to the Sub-Account when a Participant is
prevented from receiving Matching Contributions under the Savings Plan;

                  (c) Credits to a VAP Deferral Sub-Account for the VAP Deferral
Benefits described in Section 3.3, which shall be credited to the Sub-Account at

                                                                               8


                  (d) Credits to all Sub-Accounts for the earnings described in
Article IV, which shall continue until such Sub-Accounts have been distributed
to the Participant or his Beneficiary; and

                  (e) Debits for any distributions made from the Sub-Accounts.

                  SECTION 3.5. EFFECT ON OTHER BENEFITS. Benefits payable to or
with respect to a Participant under the Savings Plan or any other
Employer-sponsored (qualified or nonqualified) plan, if any, are in addition to
those provided under this Plan.

                  SECTION 3.6. STATEMENTS. Participants shall be provided with
statements of their Account balances as soon as practicable following each
Valuation Date.

                                    EARNINGS
                                    --------

                  SECTION 4.1. EARNINGS ON BASIC 401(K) AND MATCHING
SUB-ACCOUNTS.

                  (a) Subject to Subsection (b) and Section 4.4, at the end of
each calendar month during a Plan Year, the Basic Excess 401(k) Sub-Account and
the Basic Excess Matching Sub-Account of each Participant shall be credited with
an amount determined by multiplying such Participant's average Sub-Account
balance during such month by the blended rate earned during such month by the
Fixed Income Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Adjusted
ROE determined for such Plan Year exceeds the rate credited to the Participant's
Sub-Accounts under the preceding sentence, such Sub-Accounts shall retroactively
be credited with the difference between (i) the amount determined under the
preceding sentence, and (ii) the amount determined by multiplying the
Participant's average Sub-Account balance during each month of such Plan Year by
the Adjusted ROE determined for such Plan Year, compounded monthly.

                  (b) The Adjusted ROE calculation described in Subsection (a)
shall be made during the month in which the Participant terminates employment
and shall be based on the year-to-date Adjusted ROE for the month ending prior
to the date the Participant terminated employment, as calculated by NACCO
Industries, Inc. For any subsequent month following such termination, the
Adjusted ROE calculation shall not apply. The Fixed Income Fund calculation
described in Subsection(a)for the month in which the Participant receives a
distribution from his Sub-Account shall be based on the blended rate earned
during the preceding month by the Fixed Income Fund.

                  SECTION 4.2. EARNINGS ON ADDITIONAL 401(K) AND MATCHING
SUB-ACCOUNTS. Subject to Section 4.4, at the end of each calendar month during a
Plan Year, the Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Account and Additional Excess
Matching Sub-Account of each Participant shall be credited with an amount
determined by

                                                                               9


multiplying such Participant's average Sub-Account balance during such month by
the blended rate earned during such month by the Fixed Income Fund. The earnings
calculation for the month in which the Participant receives a distribution from
his Sub-Account shall be based on the blended rate earned during the preceding
month by the Fixed Income Fund.

                  SECTION 4.3. EARNINGS ON VAP DEFERRAL SUB-ACCOUNTS. Subject to
Section 4.4, at the end of each calendar month during a Plan Year, the VAP
Deferral Sub-Account of each Participant shall be credited with an amount
determined by multiplying such Participant's average Sub-Account balance during
such month by "10-Year U.S. Treasury Yield" plus 2.0%. For purposes hereof, the
10-Year U.S. Treasury Yield shall be the 10 year yield on U.S. Treasury issues
as listed in the BOND MARKET DATA BANK for the last day of the preceding
calendar quarter as printed in the WALL STREET JOURNAL. In the event that a
yield is not listed for a maturity exactly 10 years from the calendar quarter
end, the next preceding chronological treasury bond issue yield shall be used.

                  SECTION 4.4. CHANGES IN/LIMITATIONS ON EARNINGS ASSUMPTIONS.

                  (a) The Committee (as defined in Section 9.5 of the Plan) may
change (but not suspend) the earnings rate credited on Accounts hereunder at any
time upon at least 30 days notice to Participants.

                  (b) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary,
in no event will earnings on Accounts for a Plan Year be credited at a rate
which exceeds 14%.

                  A Participant shall always be 100% vested in amounts credited
to his Account hereunder.

                  (a) EXCESS 401(K) AND MATCHING BENEFITS.

                  (i) The Excess 401(k) and Matching Benefits shall be paid (or
commence to be paid) to the Participant no later than the 30th day after the
date specified in the Deferral Election Form applicable to such Benefits.

                  (ii) The Excess 401(k) and Excess Matching Benefits shall be
distributed in the form elected by the Participant in the Deferral Election Form
applicable to such Benefits. If installment payments are elected, the first
installment shall be 


<PAGE>   10
                                                                              10


paid on the date specified in Section 6.1(a)(i) and shall be paid annually
thereafter, with each installment being based on the value of the Sub-Account on
the date immediately preceding the date such installment is to be paid and being
a fraction of such value in which the numerator is one and the denominator is
the total number of remaining installments to be paid.

                  (b) VAP DEFERRAL BENEFITS.

                  (i) The VAP Deferral Benefits shall be paid (or commence to be
paid) to the Participant no later than the 30th day after the date specified in
the deferral form attributable to such Benefits.

                  (ii) The VAP Deferral Sub-Account shall each be distributed to
the Participant in the form of ten annual installments with each installment
being based on the value of the Sub-Account on the Valuation Date on which such
installment is to be paid and being a fraction of such value in which the
numerator is one and the denominator is the total number of remaining
installments to be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant may
elect to receive the amount credited to his VAP Deferral Sub-Account in the form
of a single lump sum payment or in annual installments for a period of less than
10 years by filing a notice in writing, signed by the Participant and filed with
the Plan Administrator while the Participant is alive and at least one year
prior to the time he had elected to commence receiving payment of such
Sub-Account. Any such election of the form of benefit may be changed at any time
and from time to time, without the consent of any other person, by filing a
later election in writing that is signed by the Participant and filed with the
Plan Administrator while the Participant is alive and at least one year prior to
the time he had elected to commence receiving payment of such Sub-Account.

                  (c) UNFORESEEABLE EMERGENCY DISTRIBUTIONS. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company may at any time, upon written request of the Participant,
cause to be paid to such Participant an amount equal to all or any part of the
Participant's Account if the Company determines, in its absolute discretion
based on such reasonable evidence that it shall require, that such a payment or
payments is necessary for the purpose of alleviating the consequences of an
Unforeseeable Emergency occurring with respect to the Participant. Payments of
amounts because of an Unforeseeable Emergency shall be permitted only to the
extent reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need.

                  (d) SMALL ACCOUNTS. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan
or a Participant's Deferral Election Form to the contrary, in the event that the
Account of a Participant does not exceed $10,000 at the time of the
Participant's termination of employment with the Controlled Group, such Account
shall automatically be paid to him in a single lump sum payment as soon as
practicable following his termination of employment.

                  SECTION 6.2. LIABILITY FOR PAYMENT/EXPENSES. The Employer by
which the Participant was last employed prior to his payment commencement date
under the Plan shall pay all Excess Retirement Benefits hereunder to or on
behalf of such Participant, but such Employer's liability shall be limited to
its proportionate share of such amount, as hereinafter provided. If the Excess
Retirement Benefits payable to or on behalf of a Participant are based on the
Participant's employment with more than one Employer, the liability for such
Benefits shall be shared by all such Employers (by reimbursement to the Employer
making such payment) as may be agreed to among them in good faith (taking into
consideration the Participant's service and Compensation paid by each such
Employer) and as will permit the deduction (for purposes of federal income tax)
by each such Employer of its portion of the payments made and to be made
hereunder. Expenses of administering the Plan shall be paid by the Employers, as
directed by the Company.

                                  BENEFICIARIES
                                  -------------

                  SECTION 7.1. BENEFICIARY DESIGNATIONS. A designation of a
Beneficiary hereunder may be made only by an instrument (in form acceptable to
the Plan Administrator) signed by the Participant and filed with and received by
the Plan Administrator prior to the Participant's death. In the absence of such
a designation and at any other time when there is no existing Beneficiary
designated hereunder, the Beneficiary of a Participant for his Excess Retirement
Benefits shall be the estate of the last to die of the Participant and his
Beneficiaries. If two or more persons designated as a Participant's Beneficiary
are in existence with respect to a single Excess Retirement Benefit, the amount
of any payment to the Beneficiary under this Plan shall be divided equally among
such persons unless the Participant's designation specifically provides for a
different allocation. Any change in Beneficiary shall be made by giving written
notice thereof to the Plan Administrator and any change shall be effective only
if received by the Plan Administrator prior to the death of the Participant.

                  SECTION 7.2.  DISTRIBUTIONS TO BENEFICIARIES.

                  (a) AMOUNT OF BENEFITS. The Excess Retirement Benefit payable
to a Participant's Beneficiary under this Plan shall be equal to such
Participant's Account balance on the date of the distribution of the Account to
the Beneficiary.

                  (b) TIME OF PAYMENT. The Excess Retirement Benefits payable to
a Beneficiary under this Plan shall be paid as soon as practicable following the
death of the Participant.

                  (c) FORM OF PAYMENT. All Excess Retirement Benefits payable to
a Beneficiary hereunder shall be paid in the form of a lump sum payment.

                                  -------------

                  SECTION 8.1. LIABILITY OF EMPLOYERS. Nothing in this Plan
shall constitute the creation of a trust or other fiduciary relationship between
an Employer and any Participant, Beneficiary or any other person.

                  SECTION 8.2. LIMITATION ON RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS AND
BENEFICIARIES - NO LIEN. The Plan is designed to be an unfunded, nonqualified
plan. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to create a trust or lien in
favor of any Participant or Beneficiary on any assets of an Employer. The
Employers shall have no obligation to purchase any assets that do not remain
subject to the claims of the creditors of the Employers for use in connection
with the Plan. No Participant or Beneficiary or any other person shall have any
preferred claim on, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets of an
Employer prior to the time that such assets are paid to the Participant or
Beneficiary as provided herein. Each Participant and Beneficiary shall have the
status of a general unsecured creditor of his Employer.

                  SECTION 8.3. NO GUARANTEE OF EMPLOYMENT. Nothing in this Plan
shall be construed as guaranteeing future employment to Participants. A
Participant continues to be an Employee of the Employers solely at the will of
the Employers subject to discharge at any time, with or without cause.

                  SECTION 8.4. PAYMENT TO GUARDIAN. If a benefit payable
hereunder is payable to a minor, to a person declared incompetent or to a person
incapable of handling the disposition of his property, the Plan Administrator
may direct payment of such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or
person having the care and custody of such minor, incompetent or person. The
Plan Administrator may require such proof of incompetency, minority, incapacity
or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit.
Such distribution shall completely discharge the Employers from all liability
with respect to such benefit.

                  SECTION 8.5.  ASSIGNMENT.

                  (a) Subject to Subsection (b), no right or interest under this
Plan of any Participant or Beneficiary shall be assignable or transferable in
any manner or be subject to alienation, anticipation, sale, pledge, encumbrance
or other legal process or in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts or
liabilities of the Participant or Beneficiary.

which requires the payment of all or a part of a Participant's or Beneficiary's
vested interest under this Plan to an "alternate payee" as defined in Code
Section 414(p).

                  SECTION 8.6. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Plan or

                  SECTION 8.7. ADOPTION BY OTHER EMPLOYERS. Any member of the

adopt this Plan with the consent of the Committee by executing an instrument

                             ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN
                             ----------------------

                  SECTION 9.1. ADMINISTRATION. (a) IN GENERAL. The Plan shall be
administered by the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall have the
discretion to interpret where necessary all provisions of the Plan (including,
without limitation, by supplying omissions from, correcting deficiencies in, or
resolving inconsistencies or ambiguities in, the language of the Plan), to make
factual findings with respect to any issue arising under the Plan, to determine
the rights and status under the Plan of Participants, or other persons, to
resolve questions (including factual questions) or disputes arising under the
Plan and to make any determinations with respect to the benefits payable under
the Plan and the persons entitled thereto as may be necessary for the purposes
of the Plan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Plan
Administrator is hereby granted the authority (i) to determine whether a person
is a Participant, and (ii) to determine if a person is entitled to Excess
Retirement Benefits hereunder and, if so, the amount and duration of such
Benefits. The Plan Administrator's determination of the rights of any person
hereunder shall be final and binding on all persons, subject only to the
provisions of Sections 9.3 and 9.4 hereof.

                  (b) DELEGATION OF DUTIES. The Plan Administrator may delegate
any of its administrative duties, including, without limitation, duties with
respect to the processing, review, investigation, approval and payment of Excess
Retirement Benefits, to a named administrator or administrators. Pursuant to
this delegation power, the Company has appointed the Administrative Committee
under the Savings Plan (as it exists from time to time) as the Plan
Administrator of this Plan.

                  SECTION 9.2. REGULATIONS. The Plan Administrator shall
promulgate any rules and regulations it deems necessary in order to carry out
the purposes of the Plan or to interpret the provisions of the Plan; provided,
however, that no rule, regulation or interpretation shall be contrary to the
provisions of the Plan. The rules, regulations and interpretations made by 


<PAGE>   14
                                                                              14


the Plan Administrator shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 9.3 and 9.4
hereof, be final and binding on all persons.

                  SECTION 9.3. CLAIMS PROCEDURES. The Plan Administrator shall
determine the rights of any person to any Excess Retirement Benefits hereunder.
Any person who believes that he has not received the Excess Retirement Benefits
to which he is entitled under the Plan may file a claim in writing with the Plan
Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall, no later than 90 days after the
receipt of a claim (plus an additional period of 90 days if required for
processing, provided that notice of the extension of time is given to the
claimant within the first 90 day period), either allow or deny the claim in
writing. If a claimant does not receive written notice of the Plan
Administrator's decision on his claim within the above-mentioned period, the
claim shall be deemed to have been denied in full.

                  A denial of a claim by the Plan Administrator, wholly or
partially, shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
claimant and shall include:

                  (a)      the specific reasons for the denial;

                  (b)      specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on 
                           which the denial is based;

                  (c)      a description of any additional material or
                           information necessary for the claimant to perfect the
                           claim and an explanation of why such material or
                           information is necessary; and

                  (d)      an explanation of the claim review procedure.

                  A claimant whose claim is denied (or his duly authorized
representative) may within 60 days after receipt of denial of a claim file with
the Plan Administrator a written request for a review of such claim. If the
claimant does not file a request for review of his claim within such 60-day
period, the claimant shall be deemed to have acquiesced in the original decision
of the Plan Administrator on his claim. If such an appeal is so filed within
such 60 day period, the Company (or its delegate) shall conduct a full and fair
review of such claim. During such review, the claimant shall be given the
opportunity to review documents that are pertinent to his claim and to submit
issues and comments in writing. For this purpose, the Company (or its delegate)
shall have the same power to interpret the Plan and make findings of fact
thereunder as is given to the Plan Administrator under Section 9.1 above.

                  The Company shall mail or deliver to the claimant a written
decision on the matter based on the facts and the pertinent provisions of the
Plan within 60 days after the receipt of the request for review (unless special
circumstances require an extension of up to 60 additional days, in which case
written notice of such extension shall be given to the claimant prior to the
commencement of such extension). Such decision shall be

                                                                              15


written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant, shall state the
specific reasons for the decision and the specific Plan provisions on which the
decision was based and shall, to the extent permitted by law, be final and
binding on all interested persons. If the decision on review is not furnished to
the claimant within the above-mentioned time period, the claim shall be deemed
to have been denied on review.

                  SECTION 9.4. REVOCABILITY OF PLAN ADMINISTRATOR/ EMPLOYER
ACTION. Any action taken by the Plan Administrator or an Employer with respect
to the rights or benefits under the Plan of any person shall be revocable by the
Plan Administrator or the Employer as to payments not yet made to such person,
and acceptance of any Excess Retirement Benefits under the Plan constitutes
acceptance of and agreement to the Plan Administrator's or the Employer's making
any appropriate adjustments in future payments to such person (or to recover
from such person) any excess payment or underpayment previously made to him.

                  SECTION 9.5. AMENDMENT. The Nominating, Organization and
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the
"Committee") may at any time (without the consent of an Employer) amend any or
all of the provisions of this Plan, except that (a) no such amendment may
adversely affect any Participant's Excess Retirement Benefit as of the date of
such amendment and (b) no such amendment may suspend the crediting of earnings
on the balance of a Participant's Account, until the entire balance of such
Account has been distributed, in either case, without the prior written consent
of the affected Participant. Any amendment shall be in the form of a written
instrument executed by an officer of the Company on the order of the Committee.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, such amendment shall become
effective as of the date specified in such instrument or, if no such date is
specified, on the date of its execution.

                  SECTION 9.6.  TERMINATION.

                  (a) The Committee, in its sole discretion, may terminate this
Plan at any time and for any reason whatsoever, except that, subject to
Subsection (b) hereof, (i) no such termination may adversely affect any
Participant's Excess Retirement Benefit as of the date of such termination, and
(ii) no such termination may suspend the crediting of earnings on the balance of
a Participant's Account, until the entire balance of such Account has been
distributed, in either case, without the prior written consent of the affected
Participant. Any such termination shall be expressed in the form of a written
instrument executed by an officer of the Company on the order of the Committee.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Subsection, such termination shall
become effective as of the date specified in such instrument or, if no such date
is specified, on the date of its execution. Written notice of any termination
shall be given to the Participants as soon as practicable after the instrument
is executed.

                  (b) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in
the event of a termination of the Plan, the Company, in its sole and absolute
discretion, shall have the right to change the time and form of distribution of
Participants' Excess Retirement Benefits, including requiring that all amounts
credited to Participant's Accounts hereunder be immediately distributed in the
form of a lump sum payment.

                  (c) Any Employer (other than the Company) that adopts the Plan
may elect to withdraw from the Plan and such withdrawal shall constitute a
termination of the Plan as to such Employer; provided, however, that such
terminating Employer shall continue to be an Employer for the purposes hereof as
to Participants or Beneficiaries to whom it owes obligations hereunder. Such
withdrawal and termination shall be expressed in an instrument executed by the
terminating Employer on authority of its Board of Directors (or the applicable
Committee thereof) and filed with the Company, and shall become effective as of
the date designated in such instrument or, if no such date is specified, on the
date of its execution. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if an
Employer (other than the Company) ceases to be a member of the Controlled Group,
the Plan shall automatically terminate with respect to such Employer and all
amounts credited to the Accounts of Employees of such Employer shall be
immediately payable in the form of a lump sum payment.

          Executed, this 29th day of December, 1998.

                       ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
                       ----------------------------------

                                      1999

GENERAL
- -------

         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
Company and its Subsidiaries.

PLAN OBJECTIVE
- --------------

         The Company desires to attract and retain talented employees to enable
the Company to meet its 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 AND PARTICIPATION
- --------------------------------

         The Plan is administered by the Nominating, Organization and
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the
"Committee").

The Committee:

         a. May amend, modify or discontinue the Plan. 

 

                                       1    

<PAGE>   2


         b. Will approve participation in the Plan. Generally, participants will
            include all employees in NACCO Materials Handling Group salary
            grades 22 and above. However, the Committee may select any employee
            who has contributed significantly to the Company's profitability to
            participate in the Plan and receive an annual incentive compensation
            award. Subject to paragraphs g and h, below, no employee of NACCO
            Materials Handling Group shall be eligible to be a participant in
            the Plan, and no participant in the Plan shall be eligible to
            receive an award, unless such individual is employed for at least 90
            calendar days during the year.

         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 officers
            and employees in NACCO Materials Handling Group above salary
            grade 29.

         f. May delegate to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company the
            approval of incentive compensation awards to NACCO Materials 
            Handling Group employees in salary grade 29 and below.

         g. May consider at the end of each year the award of a discretionary
            bonus amount to non-participants as an addition to the regular
            incentive compensation pool on a special one-time basis to motivate
            individuals not eligible to participate in the Plan.


                                       2

<PAGE>   3

            h. 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, such award
               to be determined pursuant to the provisions of subparagraphs (e)
               and (f) above, or (2) under other circumstances at the
               recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

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 each year by the Committee.

         The actual corporate incentive compensation pool ("Actual Pool") is
determined at the end of each year based on the Company's actual performance
against specific criteria established in the beginning of the year 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 110%, as described below.


                                       3

<PAGE>   4

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

         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 year.

         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 year
and approved by the Committee. Individual target incentive compensation will
then be adjusted by the appropriate pool or subpool factor.

         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.

Deferral Sub-Account" and the Additional Excess Deferrals were credited to the
"Excess Deferral Sub-Account No. 2" which shall be renamed as the "Additional
Excess Deferral Sub-Account."
 
                (b) PAYMENT DATE. At the time the Basic and Additional Excess
Deferrals were elected, the Participant irrevocably designated the date of
commencement of payment of such Excess Deferrals by choosing one of the
following dates: (a) the date on which he ceases to be an Employee of the
Controlled Group, (b) the date on which he attains an age specified in the
election form, or (c) the earlier or later of such dates.

                SECTION 3.4.  BASIC AND ADDITIONAL EXCESS 401(K) BENEFITS.

                (a) AMOUNT OF EXCESS 401(k) BENEFITS. Each 401(k) Employee who
is a Participant, may, prior to the first day of any Plan Year, by completing a
"401(k) Deferral Election Form," direct his Employer to reduce his Compensation
for such Plan Year and, subject to Subsection (d) below, subsequent Plan Years,
by an amount equal to the difference between (i) a specified percentage, in 1%
increments, with a maximum of 17%, of his Compensation for the Plan Year, and
(ii) the maximum Before-Tax Contributions actually permitted to be contributed
for him to the Profit Sharing Plan for such Plan Year by reason of the
application of the limitations under Sections 402(g), 401(a)(17), and 401(k)(3)
of the Code (which amounts shall be referred to as the "Excess 401(k)
Benefits").

                (b) CLASSIFICATION OF EXCESS 401(k) BENEFITS. The Excess 401(k)
Benefits for a particular Plan Year shall be calculated monthly and shall be
further divided into the "Basic Excess 401(k) Benefits" and the "Additional
Excess 401(k) Benefits" as follows:

<PAGE>   10

                                                                              10

                (i)      The Basic Excess 401(k) Benefits shall be determined by
                         multiplying each Excess 401(k) Benefit by a fraction,
                         the numerator of which is the lesser of the percentage
                         of Compensation elected to be deferred in the 401(k)
                         Deferral Election Form for such Plan Year or 7% and the
                         denominator of which is the percentage of Compensation
                         elected to be deferred; and

                (ii)     The Additional Excess 401(k) Benefits (if any) shall be
                         determined by multiplying each Excess 401(k) Benefit by
                         a fraction, the numerator of which is the difference
                         between (1) the percentage of Compensation elected to
                         be deferred in the 401(k) Deferral Election Form for
                         such Plan Year and (2) 7%, and the denominator of which
                         is the percentage of Compensation elected to be
                         deferred.

The Basic Excess 401(k) Benefits shall be credited to the Basic Excess 401(k)
Sub-Account under this Plan and the Additional Excess 401(k) Benefits shall be
credited to the Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Account hereunder.

                (c) DEFERRAL PERIOD. The 401(k) Deferral Election Form shall
also contain such Participant's irrevocable election regarding the time of the
commencement of payment of the Excess 401(k) Benefits to which such Form relate.
Payment elections made prior to the Effective Date shall continue to govern the
timing of the payment of amounts credited to the Participant's Excess 401(k)
Sub-Account as of the Effective Date. In the 401(k) Deferral Election Form, such
Participant may elect to commence payment of his Excess 401(k) Sub-Account on
(i) the date 

<PAGE>   11

                                                                              11

on which he ceases to be an Employee of the Controlled Group, (ii) the date on
which he attains an age specified in the 401(k) Deferral Election Form, or (iii)
the earlier or later of such dates.

                (d) EFFECT AND DURATION OF DEFERRAL ELECTION. Any direction by a
Participant to make deferrals of Excess 401(k) Benefits hereunder shall be
effective with respect to Compensation otherwise payable to the Participant
during the Plan Year for which the 401(k) Deferral Election Form is in effect,
and the Participant shall not be eligible to receive such Excess 401(k)
Benefits. Instead such amounts shall be credited to the Participant's Basic or
Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Account (as applicable). Any directions made in
accordance with Subsection (a) above shall be irrevocable and shall remain in
effect for subsequent Plan Years unless changed or terminated by the Participant
for Plan Years commencing after such change or termination on the appropriate

                (iii) The Plan Administrator may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, pursuant to nondiscriminatory rules adopted by the Plan
Administrator, reduce and/or cease the deferral of Excess 401(k) Benefits being

                SECTION 3.5. EXCESS MATCHING BENEFITS.

                (a) AMOUNT. A 401(k) Employee who is a Participant shall have
credited to his Basic or Additional Excess Matching Sub-Account (as applicable)

and

                (ii) to credit the amount of the reduction (the "LTIP Deferral

Account balance during each month of such Plan Year by the Adjusted ROE
determined for such Plan Year, compounded monthly.

                (b) The Adjusted ROE calculation described in Subsection (a)
shall be made during the month in which the Participant terminates employment
and shall be based on the year-to-date Adjusted ROE for the month ending prior
to the date the Participant terminated employment, as calculated by the
Participant's Employer. For any subsequent month following termination, such
Adjusted ROE calculation shall not apply. The Fixed Income Fund calculation
described above for the month in which the Participant receives a distribution
from his Sub-Account shall be based on the blended rate earned during the
preceding month by the Fixed Income Fund.

                SECTION 5.2. EARNINGS ON ADDITIONAL SUB-ACCOUNTS. Subject to
Section 5.4, at the end of each calendar month during the Plan Year, the

blended rate earned during the preceding month by the Fixed Income Fund.

Pension Benefit or Excess Profit Sharing Benefit until he becomes vested in
the corresponding benefit under the underlying Qualified Plan and the Excess
Pension Benefit and/or Excess Profit Sharing Benefit of a Participant who is
partially or fully vested under the underlying Qualified Plan shall at all times
be vested hereunder to the extent he is so vested. The non-vested portion of any

The vested Excess Pension Benefit and vested Excess Profit Sharing Benefit
payable to a Participant shall be paid in the form of a single lump sum payment
at the time the benefits payable to the Participant under the applicable
underlying Qualified Plan commence to be paid. For purposes of the Excess
Pension Benefit, such lump sum amount shall be equal to the Actuarial Equivalent
present value of such Excess Pension Benefit.

                (b) EXCESS DEFERRAL SUB-ACCOUNT, EXCESS 401(k) SUB-ACCOUNT,
EXCESS MATCHING SUB-ACCOUNT AND LTIP DEFERRAL SUB-ACCOUNT.

specified in the deferral election form applicable to such Sub-Account.

                (ii) FORM. Each such Sub-Account shall be distributed to the
Participant in the form of ten annual installments with each installment being
based on the value of the applicable Sub-Account on the Valuation Date on which
such installment is to be paid and being a fraction of such value in which the
numerator is one and the denominator is the total number of remaining
installments to be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant may
elect to receive the amount credited to a particular Sub-Account in the form of
a single lump sum payment or in annual installments for a period of less than 10
years by filing a notice in writing, signed by the Participant and filed with
the Plan Administrator while the Participant is alive and at least one year
prior to the time he had elected to commence receiving payment of such
Sub-Account. Any such election of the form of benefit may be changed at any time
and from time to time, without the consent of any other person, by filing a
later election in writing that is signed by the Participant and filed with the
Plan Administrator while the Participant is alive and at least one year prior to
the time he had elected to commence receiving payment of such Sub-Account.

                (c) UNFORESEEABLE EMERGENCY DISTRIBUTIONS. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, an Employer may at any time, upon written request of the Participant,
cause to be paid to such Participant an amount equal to all or any part of the
Participant's Excess Deferral Sub-Account and/or Excess 401(k)Sub-Account and/or
Excess Matching Sub-Account if the Employer determines, in its absolute
discretion based on such

necessary for the purpose of alleviating the consequences of an Unforeseeable
Emergency occurring with respect to the Participant. Payments of amounts because
of an Unforeseeable Emergency shall be permitted only to the extent reasonably
necessary to satisfy the emergency need.

                (d) SMALL ACCOUNTS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
that the vested portion of a Participant's total Account does not exceed $10,000
at the time of the Participant's termination of employment with the Controlled
Group, such vested portion of his Account shall automatically be paid to him in
a single lump sum payment as soon as practicable following his termination of
employment.

                SECTION 7.2. LIABILITY FOR PAYMENT/EXPENSES. Each Employer shall

Beneficiary hereunder may be made only by an instrument (in form acceptable to
the Plan Administrator) signed by the Participant and filed with the Plan

Participant's Beneficiary are in existence with respect to a single Sub-Account,
the amount of any payment to the Beneficiary under this Plan shall be divided
equally among such persons unless the Participant's designation specifically
provides for a different allocation.

not be the same as under the Qualified Plan.

                (b) Any change in Beneficiary shall be made by giving written
notice thereof to the Employer or Plan Administrator and any change shall be
effective only if received prior to the death of the Participant.

                    last effectively designated by the Participant under the

                    monthly benefit that is actually paid to such beneficiary

                    to a Participant's Beneficiary under this Plan shall be
                    equal to the vested balance in the applicable Sub-Account of
                    such Participant on the date of the distribution of the

                    hereunder shall be paid in the form of a lump sum payment.
                    For purposes of the Excess Pension Benefit, such lump sum
                    amount shall be equal to the Actuarial Equivalent present
                    value of such Excess Pension Benefit.

favor of any Participant or Beneficiary on any assets of an Employer. The
Employers shall have no obligation to purchase any assets that do not remain
subject to the claims of the creditors of the Employers for use in connection
with the Plan. No Participant or Beneficiary or any other person shall have any
preferred claim on, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets of the
Employers prior to the time that such assets are paid to the Participant or

incapable of handling the disposition of his property, the Plan Administrator

Plan Administrator may require such proof of incompetency, minority, incapacity
or guardianship as it may deem appropriate

discharge the Employers from all liability with respect to such Benefit.

                    SECTION 9.5. ASSIGNMENT. (a) Subject to Subsection (b), no
right or interest under this Plan of any Participant or Beneficiary shall be
assignable or transferable in any manner or be subject to alienation,
anticipation, sale, pledge, encumbrance or other legal process or in any manner
be liable for or subject to the debts or liabilities of the Participant or
Beneficiary.

                    (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan Administrator
shall honor a judgment, order or decree from a state domestic relations court
which requires the payment of all or a part of a Participant's or Beneficiary's
vested interest under this Plan to an "alternate payee" as defined in Code
Section 414(p).

                    SECTION 9.6. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Plan or
the application thereof to any circumstance(s) or person(s) is held to be
invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of the Plan and the

                SECTION 10.1. ADMINISTRATION. (a) IN GENERAL. The Plan shall be
administered by the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall have
discretion to interpret where necessary all provisions of the Plan (including,
without limitation, by supplying omissions from, correcting deficiencies in, or

<PAGE>   25

                                                                              25

resolving inconsistencies or ambiguities in, the language of the Plan), to make
factual findings with respect to any issue arising under the Plan, to determine
the rights and status under the Plan of Participants or other persons, to
resolve questions (including factual questions) or disputes arising under the
Plan and to make any determinations with respect to the benefits payable under
the Plan and the persons entitled thereto as may be necessary for the purposes
of the Plan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Plan
Administrator is hereby granted the authority (i) to determine whether a
particular employee is a Participant, and (ii) to determine if a person is
entitled to Benefits hereunder and, if so, the amount and duration of such
Benefits. The Plan Administrator's determination of the rights of any person
hereunder shall be final and binding on all persons, subject only to the
provisions of Sections 10.3 and 10.4 hereof.

                    (b) DELEGATION OF DUTIES. The Plan Administrator may
delegate any of its administrative duties, including, without limitation, duties
with respect to the processing, review, investigation, approval and payment of
Benefits, to a named administrator or administrators. Pursuant to this
provision, NACCO Industries, Inc. shall be responsible for the administration of
the Benefits for its employees.

                    SECTION 10.2. REGULATIONS. The Plan Administrator shall
promulgate any rules and regulations it deems necessary in order to carry out
the purposes of the Plan or to interpret the provisions of the Plan; provided,
however, that no rule, regulation or interpretation shall be contrary to the
provisions of the Plan. The rules, regulations and interpretations made by

                                                                              26

the Plan Administrator shall, subject only to the provisions of Sections 10.3
and 10.4 hereof, be final and binding on all persons.

                SECTION 10.3. CLAIMS PROCEDURES. The Plan Administrator shall
determine the rights of a person to any Benefits hereunder. Any person who
believes that he has not received the Benefits to which he is entitled under the
Plan may file a claim in writing with the Plan Administrator. The Plan
Administrator shall, no later than 90 days after the receipt of a claim (plus an
additional period of 90 days if required for processing, provided that notice of
the extension of time is given to the claimant within the first 90 day period),
either allow or deny the claim in writing. If a claimant does not receive
written notice of the Plan Administrator's decision on his claim within the
above-mentioned period, the claim shall be deemed to have been denied in full.

                A denial of a claim by the Plan Administrator, wholly or
partially, shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
claimant and shall include:

                (a) the specific reasons for the denial;

                (b) specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the
                    denial is based;

                (c) a description of any additional material or information
                    necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an 
                    explanation of why such material or information is 
                    necessary; and

                (d) an explanation of the claim review procedure.

                A claimant whose claim is denied (or his duly authorized
representative) may within 60 days after receipt of denial of a claim file with
the Plan Administrator a written request for a review of such claim. If the
claimant does not file a request 

<PAGE>   27

                                                                              27

for review of his claim within such 60-day period, the claimant shall be deemed
to have acquiesced in the original decision of the Plan Administrator on his
claim. If such an appeal is so filed within such 60 day period, the Company (or
its delegate) shall conduct a full and fair review of such claim. During such
review, the claimant shall be given the opportunity to review documents that are
pertinent to his claim and to submit issues and comments in writing. For this
purpose, the Company (or its delegate) shall have the same power to interpret
the Plan and make findings of fact thereunder as is given to the Plan
Administrator under Section 10.1(a) above.

                The Company shall mail or deliver to the claimant a written
decision on the matter based on the facts and the pertinent provisions of the
Plan within 60 days after the receipt of the request for review (unless special
circumstances require an extension of up to 60 additional days, in which case
written notice of such extension shall be given to the claimant prior to the
commencement of such extension). Such decision shall be written in a manner
calculated to be understood by the claimant, shall state the specific reasons
for the decision and the specific Plan provisions on which the decision was
based and shall, to the extent permitted by law, be final and binding on all
interested persons. If the decision on review is not furnished to the claimant
within the above-mentioned time period, the claim shall be deemed to have been
denied on review.

                SECTION 10.4. REVOCABILITY OF PLAN ADMINISTRATOR/COMPANY ACTION.
Any action taken by the Plan Administrator or the Company with respect to the
rights or benefits under the Plan of any person shall be revocable by the

<PAGE>   28

                                                                              28

Plan Administrator or the Company as to payments not yet made to such person,
and acceptance of any Benefits under the Plan constitutes acceptance of and
agreement to the Plan Administrator's or the Company's making any appropriate
adjustments in future payments to such person (or to recover from such person)
any excess payment or underpayment previously made to him.

                SECTION 10.5. AMENDMENT. The Committee may at any time (without
the consent of any Employer) amend any or all of the provisions of this Plan,
except that (a) no such amendment may adversely affect any Participant's vested
Benefit as of the date of such amendment, and (b) no such amendment may suspend
the crediting of earnings on the balance of a Participant's Account, until the
entire balance of such Account has been distributed, in either case, without the
prior written consent of the affected Participant. Any amendment shall be in the
form of a written instrument executed by an officer of the Company on the order
of the Committee. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, such
amendment shall become effective as of the date specified in such instrument or,
if no such date is specified, on the date of its execution.

                SECTION 10.6.  TERMINATION.

                (a) The Committee (without the consent of any Employer), in its
sole discretion, may terminate this Plan at any time and for any reason
whatsoever, except that, subject to Subsection (b) hereof, (i) no such
termination may adversely affect any Participant's vested Benefit as of the date
of such termination and (ii) no such termination may suspend the crediting of
earnings on the balance of a Participant's Account,

                                                                              29

until the entire balance of such Account has been distributed, in either case,
without the prior written consent of the affected Participant. Any such
termination shall be expressed in the form of a written instrument executed by
an officer of the Company on the order of the Committee. Subject to the
foregoing provisions of this Section, such termination shall become effective as
of the date specified in such instrument or, if no such date is specified, on
the date of its execution. Written notice of any termination shall be given to
the Participants as soon as practicable after the instrument is executed.

                (b) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in the
event of a termination of the Plan (or any portion thereof), the Company, in its
sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right to change the time and form
of distribution of Participants' Excess Retirement Benefits including requiring
that all amounts credited to Participant's Account hereunder be immediately
distributed in the form of lump sum payments.

                SECTION 10.7. WITHDRAWAL BY EMPLOYER. Any Employer (other than
the Company) which adopts this Plan may elect separately to withdraw from such
Plan and such withdrawal shall constitute a termination of the Plan as to it;
provided, however, that (a) such terminating Employer shall continue to be an
Employer for the purposes hereof as to Participants or Beneficiaries to whom it
owes obligations hereunder, and (b) such termination shall be subject to the
limitations and other conditions described in Section 10.6, treating the
Employer as if it were the Company.

         Executed, this 29th day of December, 1998.

                           by multiplying each Excess 401(k) Benefit by a
                           fraction, the numerator of which is the lesser of the
                           percentage of Compensation elected to be deferred in
                           the 401(k) Deferral Election Form for such Plan Year
                           or 7% and the denominator of which is the percentage
                           of Compensation elected to be deferred; and

                  (ii)     The Additional Excess 401(k) Benefits (if any) shall
                           be determined by multiplying such Excess 401(k)
                           Benefit by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
                           difference between (1) the percentage of Compensation
                           elected to be deferred in the 401(k) Deferral
                           Election Form for such Plan Year and (2) 7%, and the
                           denominator of which is the percentage of
                           Compensation elected to be deferred.

The Basic Excess 401(k) Benefits shall be credited to the Basic Excess 401(k)
Sub-Account under this Plan and the Additional Excess 401(k) Benefits shall be
credited to the Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Account hereunder. The Basic and
Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Accounts shall be referred to collectively as the
"Excess 401(k) Sub-Account."

                  (c) DEFERRAL PERIOD. The 401(k) Deferral Election Form shall
also contain such Participant's irrevocable election regarding the time of the
commencement of payment of all the Excess 401(k) Benefits to which such form
relate. Payment elections made prior to the Effective Date shall continue to
govern the timing of the payment of amounts credited to the Participant's Excess
401(k) Sub-Account as of the Effective Date. In the 401(k) Deferral Election
Form, such Participant may elect to commence payment of his Excess 401(k)
Sub-Account on (i) the date on which he ceases to be an Employee of a Controlled
Group Member, (ii) January 1st of the year following the date on which he ceases
to be an Employee of a Controlled Group Member, (iii) the date on which he
attains an age specified in the Deferral Election Form, or (iv) the earlier or
later of such dates.

                  (d) EFFECT AND DURATION OF DEFERRAL ELECTION. Any direction by
a Participant to make deferrals of Excess 401(k) Benefits hereunder shall be
effective with respect to Compensation otherwise payable to the Participant
during the Plan Year for which the 401(k) Deferral Election Form is in effect,
and the Participant shall not be eligible to receive such Excess 401(k)
Benefits. Instead, such amounts shall be credited to the Participant's Basic and
Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Accounts (as applicable) as provided in Section
3.5. Any directions made in accordance with Subsection (a) above shall be
irrevocable and shall remain in effect for subsequent Plan Years unless changed
or terminated by the Participant for Plan Years commencing after such change or
termination, on the appropriate form provided by the Plan Administrator, prior
to the first day of such subsequent Plan Year.

                  (e) AUTOMATIC TERMINATION/SUSPENSION OF DEFERRAL ELECTION.

                  (i) A Participant's direction to make deferrals of Excess
401(k) Benefits shall automatically terminate on the earlier of the date on
which (1) the Participant ceases employment with the Company, (2) the Company is
deemed Insolvent, (3) the Participant is no longer eligible to make deferrals of
Excess 401(k) Benefits hereunder, or (4) the Plan is terminated.

                  (ii) Any Participant whose eligibility to make Before-Tax
Contributions to the Savings Plan has been suspended because he has taken a
hardship withdrawal from the Savings Plan shall not be eligible to make
deferrals of Excess 401(k) Benefits under this Plan for the period of his
suspension from the Savings Plan.

                  (iii) The Plan Administrator may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, pursuant to nondiscriminatory rules adopted by the Plan
Administrator, reduce and/or cease the deferral of Excess 401(k) Benefits being
made by one or more Participants, to the extent deemed necessary or desirable in
order to satisfy the requirements of any applicable law (including, without
limitation, federal securities laws).

                  SECTION 3.4. EXCESS MATCHING BENEFITS.

                  (a) AMOUNT. A 401(k) Employee shall have credited to his Basic
or Additional Excess Matching Sub-Account (as applicable) an amount equal to the
Post-1994 Matching Employer Contributions attributable to the Basic or
Additional Excess 401(k) Benefits that he is prevented from receiving under the
Savings Plan because of the limitations imposed under Code Sections 402(g),
401(a)(17), 401(k)(3) and 401(m) (collectively, the "Excess Matching Benefits").

                  (b) TIME OF PAYMENT. The Excess Matching Benefits shall be
paid (or commence to be paid) at the same time as the Excess 401(k) Benefits to
which they relate (as specified in the 401(k) Deferral Election Form applicable
to such Benefits).

                  SECTION 3.5. PARTICIPANT'S ACCOUNTS. The Company shall
establish and maintain on its books an Account for each Participant which shall
contain the following entries:

                  (a) Credits to an Excess Profit Sharing Sub-Account for the
Excess Profit Sharing Benefits described in Section 3.2, which shall be credited
to the Sub-Account at the time the Profit Sharing Contributions are otherwise
credited to Participants' Accounts under the Savings Plan;

                  (b) Credits to a Basic Excess 401(k) Sub-Account for the Basic
Excess 401(k) Benefits described in Section 3.3(b)(i) and credits to an
Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Account for the Additional Excess 401(k) Benefits
described in Section 3.3(b)(ii), both of which shall be credited to the
Sub-Account when a 401(k) Employee is prevented from making a Before-Tax
Contribution under the Savings Plan;

                  (c) Credits to a Basic or Additional Excess Matching
Sub-Account (as applicable) for the Basic or Additional Excess Matching Benefits
described in Section 3.4, which shall be credited to the Sub-Account when a
401(k) Employee is prevented from receiving Post-1994 Matching Employer
Contributions under the Savings Plan;

                  (d) Credits to all such Sub-Accounts for the earnings
described in Article IV, which shall continue until the vested portions of such
Sub-Accounts have been distributed to the Participant or his Beneficiary; and

                                       7

<PAGE>   8


                  (e) Debits for any distributions made from such Sub-Accounts
and any amounts forfeited under Section 5.1(a). To the extent determined
necessary by the Company, the Company may also establish a "notional account" in
the name of each Cash Balance Employee to reflect the Excess Pension benefits
payable to such Employees.

                  SECTION 3.6. EFFECT ON OTHER BENEFITS. Benefits payable to or
with respect to a Participant under the Qualified Plans or any other
Company-sponsored (qualified or nonqualified) plan, if any, are in addition to
those provided under this Plan.

                                    EARNINGS
                                    --------

                  SECTION 4.1. EARNINGS ON BASIC 401(k) AND MATCHING AND PROFIT
SHARING SUB-ACCOUNTS.

                  (a) Subject to Subsection (b) and Section 4.3, at the end of
each calendar month during a Plan Year, the Excess Profit Sharing Sub-Account,
Basic Excess 401(k) Sub-Account and Basic Excess Matching Sub-Account of each
Participant shall be credited with an amount determined by multiplying such
Participant's average Sub-Account balance during such month by the blended rate
earned during such month by the Fixed Income Fund. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the Adjusted ROE determined for such Plan Year
exceeds the rate credited to the Sub-Accounts under the preceding sentence, such
Sub-Accounts shall retroactively be credited with the difference between (1) the
amount determined under the preceding sentence, and (2) the amount determined by
multiplying the Participant's average Sub-Account balance during each month of
such Plan Year by the Adjusted ROE determined for such Plan Year, compounded
monthly.

                  (b) The Adjusted ROE calculation described in Subsection (a)
shall be made during the month in which the Participant terminates employment
and shall be based on the year-to-date Adjusted ROE for the month ending prior
to the date the Participant terminated employment, as calculated by the Company.
For any subsequent month, such Adjusted ROE calculation shall not apply. The
Fixed Income Fund calculation described above for the month in which the
Participant receives a distribution from his Sub-Account shall be based on the
blended rate earned during the preceding month by the Fixed Income Fund.

                  SECTION 4.2. EARNINGS ON ADDITIONAL 401(k) AND MATCHING
SUB-ACCOUNTS. Subject to Section 4.3, at the end of each calendar month during a
Plan Year, the Additional Excess 401(k) Sub-Account and Additional Excess
Matching Sub-Account of each Participant shall be credited with an amount
determined by multiplying such Participant's average Sub-Account balance during
such month by the blended rate earning during such month by the Fixed Income
Fund. The earnings calculation for the month in which the participant receives a
distribution from his Sub-

                                       8
<PAGE>   9

Account shall be based on the blended rate earned during the preceding month by
the Fixed Income Fund.

                  SECTION 4.3.  CHANGES IN LIMITATIONS ON EARNINGS ASSUMPTIONS.

                  (a) The Nominating, Organization and Compensation Committee of
the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Committee") may change (but not
suspend) the earnings rate credited to Accounts hereunder at any time upon at
least 30 days advance notice to Participants.

                  (b) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary,
in no event will earnings on Accounts for a Plan Year be credited at a rate
which exceeds 14%.

                                     VESTING
                                     -------

                  SECTION 5.1. VESTING.

                  (a) A Participant shall not become vested in his Excess
Pension Benefit or Excess Profit Sharing Benefit until he becomes vested in the
corresponding benefit under the applicable underlying Qualified Plan and the
Excess Pension Benefit and/or Excess Profit Sharing Benefit of a Participant who
is partially or fully vested under the applicable underlying Qualified Plan
shall at all times be vested hereunder to the extent he is so vested. The
non-vested portion of any such Benefit shall be forfeited and/or reinstated
under this Plan in accordance with the vesting, forfeiture and service rules
contained in the applicable underlying Qualified Plan and any such forfeitures
shall be subtracted from the applicable Sub-Account balance hereunder.

                  (b) A Participant shall always be 100% vested in the amounts
credited to his Excess 401(k) Sub-Account and Excess Matching Sub-Account
hereunder.

                  SECTION 6.1. TIME AND MANNER OF PAYMENT.

                  (a) EXCESS PENSION BENEFITS.

                           (i) TIMING. A Participant who is a Cash Balance 
Employee is required to elect the time and manner of payment of his benefits
under the Cash Balance Plan before he will be eligible to receive payment of his
Excess Pension Benefit hereunder. The vested Excess Pension Benefit payable to a
Participant shall be paid at the same time or times and in the same manner as 
the benefits payable to the Participant under the Cash Balance Plan.

                                       9

<PAGE>   10

                           (ii) FORM. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the 
event that the monthly payments of the Excess Pension Benefits payable to a
Participant hereunder following the Participant's termination of the employment
with the Controlled Group amount to less than Fifty Dollars ($50) per month,
such Excess Pension Benefits shall be paid in the form of a single lump sum
payment. Such lump sum amount shall be equal to the Actuarial Equivalent present
value of such Excess Pension Benefits.

                  (b) EXCESS PROFIT SHARING BENEFITS. The Excess Profit Sharing
Benefit payable to a Participant shall be paid in the form of a single lump sum
payment at the time the corresponding Post-1996 Profit Sharing Contributions
payable to the Participant under the Savings Plan commence to be paid.

                  (C) EXCESS 401(k) AND MATCHING BENEFITS.

                           (i) Timing. A Participant's Excess 401(k) Sub-Account
and Excess Matching Sub-Account shall be paid (or commence to be paid) to the 
Participant 30 days after the date specified in the Participant's 401(k) 
Deferral Election Form.

                           (ii) FORM. The Excess 401(k) Sub-Account and Excess
Matching Sub-Account shall each be distributed in the form of ten annual 
installments with each installment being based on the value of the applicable 
Sub-Account on the Valuation Date immediately preceding the date such 
installment is to be paid and being a fraction of such value in which the 
numerator is one and the denominator is the total number of remaining 
installments to be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant may 
elect to receive the amounts credited to his Excess 401(k) Sub-Account and/or 
his Excess Matching Sub-Account in the form of a single lump sum payment or in 
annual installments for a period of less than 10 years by filing a notice in 
writing, signed by the Participant and filed with the Plan Administrator while 
the Participant is alive and at least one year prior to the time he had elected 
to commence receiving payment of such Sub-Account. Any such election of the 
form of payment may be changed at any time and from time to time, without the 
consent of any other person, by filing a later election in writing that is 
signed by a Participant and filed with the Plan Administrator while such 
Participant is alive and at least one year prior to the time he had elected to 
commence receiving payment of such Sub-Account.

                           (iii)  UNFORESEEABLE EMERGENCY DISTRIBUTIONS.  
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may at any time, upon written request
of the Participant cause to be paid to such Participant an amount equal to all
or any part of the Participant's Excess 401(k) Sub-Account and/or Excess
Matching Sub-Account if the Company determines, in its absolute discretion based
on such reasonable evidence that it shall require, that such a payment or
payments is necessary for the purpose of alleviating the consequences of an
Unforeseeable Emergency occurring with respect to the Participant. Payments of
amounts 

                                       10
<PAGE>   11

because of an Unforeseeable Emergency shall be permitted only to the
extent reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need.

                  SECTION 6.2. SMALL SUB-ACCOUNTS. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the vested portion of a Participant's Account does
not exceed $10,000 at the time of such Participant's termination of employment
with the Controlled Group, such vested portion of his Account shall
automatically be paid to him in a single lump sum payment as soon as practicable
following his termination of employment.

                  SECTION 6.3. LIABILITY FOR PAYMENT/EXPENSES. The Company shall
be liable for the payment of the Excess Retirement Benefits which are payable
hereunder to the Participants. Expenses of administering the Plan shall be paid
by the Company.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                                  BENEFICIARIES
                                  -------------

                  SECTION 7.1. BENEFICIARY DESIGNATIONS. A designation of a
Beneficiary hereunder may be made only by an instrument (in form acceptable to
the Plan Administrator) signed by the Participant and filed with the Plan
Administrator prior to the Participant's death. Separate Beneficiary
designations may be made for each Benefit under the Plan. In the absence of such
a designation and at any other time when there is no existing Beneficiary
designated hereunder, (a) the Beneficiary of a Participant for his Excess
Pension Benefits shall be his beneficiary under the Cash Balance Plan and (b)
the Beneficiary of a Participant for his Account shall be his Beneficiary under
the Savings Plan. A person designated by a Participant as his Beneficiary who or
which ceases to exist shall not be entitled to any part of any payment
thereafter to be made to the Participant's Beneficiary unless the Participant's
designation specifically provided to the contrary. If two or more persons
designated as a Participant's Beneficiary are in existence with respect to a
single Excess Retirement Benefit the amount of any payment to the Beneficiary
under this Plan shall be divided equally among such persons unless the
Participant's designation specifically provides for a different allocation.

                  SECTION 7.2. CHANGE IN BENEFICIARY. (a) Anything herein or in
the Qualified Plans to the contrary notwithstanding, a Participant may, at any
time and from time to time, change a Beneficiary designation hereunder without
the consent of any existing Beneficiary or any other person. A change in
Beneficiary hereunder may be made regardless of whether such a change is also
made under the applicable underlying Qualified Plan. In other words, the
Beneficiary hereunder need not be the same as under the applicable underlying
Qualified Plan.

                  (b) Any change in Beneficiary shall be made by giving written
notice thereof to the Plan Administrator and any change 

                                       11
<PAGE>   12


shall be effective only if received by the Plan Administrator prior to the death
of the Participant.

                  SECTION 7.3. DISTRIBUTIONS TO BENEFICIARIES.

                  (a) AMOUNT OF BENEFITS.

                           (i) AMOUNT OF EXCESS PENSION BENEFIT. The Excess
                  Pension Benefit payable to a Beneficiary under this Plan shall
                  be a monthly benefit equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the
                  amount of the monthly benefit that would be payable to the
                  Beneficiary last effectively designated by the Participant
                  under the Cash Balance Plan (in the form actually paid) if
                  such Plan did not contain the limitations imposed under
                  Sections 401(a)(17) or 415 of the Code and the definition of
                  Compensation under such Plan included any amounts deferred
                  under this Plan over (B) the amount of the monthly benefit
                  that is actually paid to such Beneficiary under such Plan.

                      (ii) AMOUNT OF EXCESS PROFIT SHARING BENEFIT. The Excess
                  Profit Sharing Benefit payable to a Participant's Beneficiary
                  under this Plan shall be equal to such Participant's vested
                  Excess Profit Sharing Sub-Account balance on the date of the
                  distribution of the Sub-Account to the Beneficiary.

                     (iii) AMOUNT OF EXCESS 401(k) AND EXCESS MATCHING BENEFITS.
                  The Excess 401(k) and Basic Excess Matching Benefits payable
                  to a Participant's Beneficiary under this Plan shall be equal
                  to such Participant's Excess 401(k) and Excess Matching
                  Sub-Account balances on the date of the distribution of the
                  Sub-Accounts to the Beneficiary.

                  (b) TIME AND MANNER OF PAYMENT.

                           (i) EXCESS PENSION BENEFIT. The Excess Pension
                  Benefit payable to a Beneficiary under this Plan shall be paid
                  at the same time or times and in the same manner as the
                  benefits payable to the Beneficiary last effectively
                  designated by the Participant under the Cash Balance Plan;
                  provided however, that the provisions of Subsection 6.1(a)(ii)
                  shall apply to such Benefit, treating the Beneficiary
                  hereunder as if he were the Participant.

                           (ii) EXCESS PROFIT SHARING BENEFIT/EXCESS 401(K)
                  BENEFIT AND EXCESS MATCHING BENEFIT. The Excess Profit Sharing
                  Benefit, Excess 401(k) Benefit and Basic Matching Benefit
                  payable to a Beneficiary under this Plan shall be paid as soon
                  as practicable following the death of the Participant in the
                  form of a lump sum payment.

                                       12
<PAGE>   13

                  (c) EFFECT OF DIFFERENT BENEFICIARIES UNDER THIS PLAN AND THE
CASH BALANCE PLAN. In the event the Beneficiary designated hereunder for the
Excess Pension Benefit is different than the Beneficiary under the Cash Balance
Plan, (i) if the Beneficiary hereunder dies after the Participant but while the
Beneficiary under the Cash Balance Plan is still living, any remaining payments
hereunder shall be payable, as they come due, to the estate of the Beneficiary
hereunder and (ii) if the Beneficiary hereunder predeceases the Beneficiary
under the Cash Balance Plan and the Participant, the Beneficiary hereunder shall
revert to the Beneficiary last effectively designated under the Cash Balance
Plan unless and until the Participant again makes a change of Beneficiary
pursuant to Section 7.2.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS
                                  -------------

                  SECTION 8.1. LIABILITY OF COMPANY. Nothing in this Plan shall
constitute the creation of a trust or other fiduciary relationship between the
Company and any Participant, Beneficiary or any other person.

                  SECTION 8.2. LIMITATION ON RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS AND
BENEFICIARIES - NO LIEN. The Plan is designed to be an unfunded, nonqualified
plan. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to create a trust or lien in
favor of any Participant or Beneficiary on any assets of the Company. The
Company shall have no obligation to purchase any assets that do not remain
subject to the claims of the creditors of the Company for use in connection with
the Plan. No Participant or Beneficiary or any other person shall have any
preferred claim on, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets of the
Company prior to the time that such assets are paid to the Participant or
Beneficiary as provided herein. Each Participant and Beneficiary shall have the
status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.

                  SECTION 8.3. NO GUARANTEE OF EMPLOYMENT. Nothing in this Plan
shall be construed as guaranteeing future employment to Participants. A
Participant continues to be an Employee of the Company solely at the will of the
Company subject to discharge at any time, with or without cause.

                  SECTION 8.4. PAYMENT TO GUARDIAN. If a Benefit payable
hereunder is payable to a minor, to a person declared incompetent or to a person
incapable of handling the disposition of his property, the Plan Administrator
may direct payment of such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or
person having the care and custody of such minor, incompetent or person. The
Plan Administrator may require such proof of incompetency, minority, incapacity
or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit.
Such distribution shall completely discharge the Company from all liability with
respect to such Benefit.

                             ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN
                             ----------------------

                  SECTION 9.1. ADMINISTRATION. (a) IN GENERAL. The Plan shall be
administered by the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall have
discretion to interpret where necessary all provisions of the Plan (including,
without limitation, by supplying omissions from, correcting deficiencies in, or
resolving inconsistencies or ambiguities in, the language of the Plan), to make
factual findings with respect to any issue arising under the Plan, to determine
the rights and status under the Plan of Participants, or other persons, to
resolve questions (including factual questions) or disputes arising under the
Plan and to make any determinations with respect to the benefits payable under
the Plan and the persons entitled thereto as may be necessary for the purposes
of the Plan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Plan
Administrator is hereby granted the authority (i) to determine whether a
particular Employee is a Participant, and (ii) to determine if a person is
entitled to Excess Retirement Benefits hereunder and, if so, the amount and
duration of such Benefits. The Plan Administrator's determination of the rights
of any person hereunder shall be final and binding on all persons, subject only
to the provisions of Sections 9.3 and 9.4 hereof.

                  (b) DELEGATION OF DUTIES. The Plan Administrator may delegate
any of its administrative duties, including, without limitation, duties with
respect to the processing, review, investigation, approval and payment of Excess
Retirement Benefits, to a named administrator or administrators.

                  SECTION 9.2. REGULATIONS. The Plan Administrator shall
promulgate any rules and regulations it deems necessary in order to carry out
the purposes of the Plan or to interpret the provisions of the Plan; provided,
however, that no rule, 

                                       14
<PAGE>   15

regulation or interpretation shall be contrary to the provisions of the Plan.
The rules, regulations and interpretations made by the Plan Administrator shall,
subject only to the provisions of Sections 9.3 and 9.4 hereof, be final and
binding on all persons.

                  SECTION 9.3. CLAIMS PROCEDURES. The Plan Administrator shall
determine the rights of any person to any Excess Retirement Benefits hereunder.
Any person who believes that he has not received the Excess Retirement Benefits
to which he is entitled under the Plan may file a claim in writing with the Plan
Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall, no later than 90 days after the
receipt of a claim (plus an additional period of 90 days if required for
processing, provided that notice of the extension of time is given to the
claimant within the first 90 day period), either allow or deny the claim in
writing. If a claimant does not receive written notice of the Plan
Administrator's decision on his claim within the above-mentioned period, the
claim shall be deemed to have been denied in full.

                  A written denial of a claim by the Plan Administrator, wholly
or partially, shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
claimant and shall include:

                  (a)      the specific reasons for the denial;

                  (b)      specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on 
                           which the denial is based;

                  (c)      a description of any additional material or
                           information necessary for the claimant to perfect the
                           claim and an explanation of why such material or
                           information is necessary; and

                  (d)      an explanation of the claim review procedure.

                  A claimant whose claim is denied (or his duly authorized
representative) may within 60 days after receipt of denial of a claim file with
the Plan Administrator a written request for a review of such claim. If the
claimant does not file a request for review of his claim within such 60-day
period, the claimant shall be deemed to have acquiesced in the original decision
of the Plan Administrator on his claim. If such an appeal is so filed within
such 60 day period, the Company (or its delegate) shall conduct a full and fair
review of such claim. During such review, the claimant shall be given the
opportunity to review documents that are pertinent to his claim and to submit
issues and comments in writing. For this purpose, the Company (or its delegate)
shall have the same power to interpret the Plan and make findings of fact
thereunder as is given to the Plan Administrator under Section 9.1(a) above.

                  The Company shall mail or deliver to the claimant a written
decision on the matter based on the facts and the pertinent provisions of the
Plan within 60 days after the receipt 

                                       15
<PAGE>   16

of the request for review (unless special circumstances require an extension of
up to 60 additional days, in which case written notice of such extension shall
be given to the claimant prior to the commencement of such extension). Such
decision shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
claimant, shall state the specific reasons for the decision and the specific
Plan provisions on which the decision was based and shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be final and binding on all interested persons. If the
decision on review is not furnished to the claimant within the above-mentioned
time period, the claim shall be deemed to have been denied on review.

                  SECTION 9.4. REVOCABILITY OF PLAN ADMINISTRATOR/ COMPANY
ACTION. Any action taken by the Plan Administrator or the Company with respect
to the rights or benefits under the Plan of any person shall be revocable by the
Plan Administrator or the Company as to payments not yet made to such person,
and acceptance of any Excess Retirement Benefits under the Plan constitutes
acceptance of and agreement to the Plan Administrator's or the Company's making
any appropriate adjustments in future payments to such person (or to recover
from such person) any excess payment or underpayment previously made to him.

                  SECTION 9.5. AMENDMENT. The Committee may at any time amend
any or all of the provisions of this Plan, except that (a) no such amendment may
adversely affect any Participant's vested Excess Retirement Benefit as of the
date of such amendment and (b) no such amendment may suspend the crediting of
earnings on the balance of a Participant's Account, until the entire balance of
such Account has been distributed, in either case, without the prior written
consent of the affected Participant. Any amendment shall be in the form of a
written instrument executed by an officer of the Company on the order of the
Committee. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, such amendment
shall become effective as of the date specified in such instrument or, if no
such date is specified, on the date of its execution.

                  SECTION 9.6.  TERMINATION.

                  (a) The Committee, in its sole discretion, may terminate this
Plan at any time and for any reason whatsoever, except that, subject to
Subsection (b) hereof, (i) no such termination may adversely affect any
Participant's vested Excess Retirement Benefit as of the date of such
termination and (ii) no such termination may suspend the crediting of earnings
on the balance of a Participant's Account, until the entire balance of such
Account has been distributed, in either case, without the prior written consent
of the affected Participant. Any such termination shall be expressed in the form
of a written instrument executed by an officer of the Company on the order of
the Committee. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, such
termination shall become effective as of the date specified in such instrument
or, if no such date is specified, on the date of its execution. Written notice
of any termination shall be given to the Participants as soon as practicable
after the instrument is executed.

                  (b) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in
the event of a termination of the Plan (or any portion thereof), the Company, in
its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right to change the time and
form of distribution of Participants' Excess Retirement Benefits.

          Executed, this 21st day of December, 1998, to be effective January 1,
1999.

                       HAMILTON BEACH*PROCTOR-SILEX, INC.


                    Annual Incentive Compensation Plan - 1999
                    -----------------------------------------

GENERAL
- -------

Hamilton Beach*Proctor-Silex, 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 Company and its
Subsidiaries.

PLAN OBJECTIVE
- --------------

The Company desires to attract and retain talented employees to enable the
Company to meet its 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 AND PARTICIPATION
- --------------------------------

The Plan is administered by the Nominating, Organization and Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Committee"). The
Committee:

         a.       May amend, modify, or discontinue the Plan.

         b.       Will approve participation in the Plan. Generally,
                  participants will include all employee in Hay Salary Job
                  Grades 14 and above. Employees who voluntarily terminate their
                  employment prior to year-end are not entitled to an award, and
                  employees joining the Company after August of any year will
                  not be entitled to an award. However, the Committee may select
                  any employee who has contributed significantly to the
                  Company's profitability to participate in the Plan and receive
                  an annual incentive compensation award.

         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
                  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 employees in
                  and below Hay Salary Job Grade 17.

         g.       May consider at the end of each year the award of a
                  discretionary bonus amount to non-participants as an addition
                  to the regular incentive compensation pool on a special
                  one-time basis to motivate individuals not eligible to
                  participate in the Plan.

         h.       May approve a pro rata incentive compensation award for
                  participants in the Plan whose employment is terminated (1)
                  due to death, disability, retirement or facility closure, such
                  award to be determined pursuant to the provisions of
                  subparagraphs e. and f. above or (2) under other circumstances
                  at the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer of the
                  Company.

                                                                 Exhibit 10(cxx)

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 Job
Grade. This percentage is multiplied by the midpoint of the participant's Salary
Job 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 (the "Target Pool"). The Target
Pool is approved each year by the Committee.

The actual corporate incentive compensation pool (the "Actual Pool") is
determined at the end of each year based on the Company's actual performance
against specific criteria established in the beginning of the year by the
Committee. The Target Pool is adjusted upwards or downwards by corporate
performance adjustment factor 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.

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 year.

The Actual and Target Pools exclude commission personnel as salespersons,
regional general manager and manufacturing representatives.

DETERMINATION OF INDIVIDUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION AWARDS
- ---------------------------------------------------------

Salary Job Grades and the corresponding target incentive percentage for each
participant in the Plan will be established at the beginning of each year 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. The total of all individual
incentive compensation awards must not exceed the Actual Pool for the year.

       12.11 JURISDICTION AND SERVICE OF PROCESS. Any suit, action or proceeding
   against any Obligor with respect to this Agreement, any Loan, any Note, any
   Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Document or any Security Document or
   on any judgment entered by any court in respect of any thereof may be brought
   in any Ohio state or federal court sitting in Cleveland, Ohio, or in the
   courts sitting in Toronto, Ontario, Canada or in the courts sitting in the
   Federal District of Mexico, or in the courts sitting in any jurisdiction
   where property covered by any Mortgage may be situated, as the U.S. Agent may
   elect in its sole discretion and each Obligor hereby submits to the
   non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any such suit,
   action or proceeding (and waives for such purpose any other preferential
   jurisdiction by reason of its present or future domicile or otherwise). Each
   of PSC and PSM hereby agrees that service of all writs, process and summonses
   in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in the State of Ohio may be
   made upon CT Corporation System (the "PROCESS AGENT"), presently located at
   1300 East Ninth Street, Cleveland, Ohio 44114, and each of PSC and PSM hereby
   irrevocably appoints the Process Agent its true and lawful attorney-in-fact
   in its name, place and stead to accept such service of any and all such
   writs, process and summonses, and agrees that the failure of the Process
   Agent to give any notice of any such service of process to it shall not
   impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment based
   thereon. Each Obligor hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of
   process in any suit, action or proceeding in said courts by the mailing
   thereof by either Agent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to
   such Obligor. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability
   of either Agent to serve any such writs, process or summonses in any other
   manner permitted by applicable law or to obtain jurisdiction over any Obligor
   in such other jurisdictions, and in such manner, as may be permitted by
   applicable law. Each Obligor hereby irrevocably waives any objection which it
   may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action
   or proceeding brought in any Ohio state or federal court sitting in
   Cleveland, Ohio, and hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that any
   such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in
   an inconvenient forum.

       12.13 JUDGMENT CURRENCY. This is an international loan transaction in
   which (a) in the case of U.S. Dollar Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations,
   the specification of U.S. Dollars and payment at the Principal Office is of
   the essence, and, with respect to such U.S. Dollar Loans and Letter of Credit
   Obligations, U.S. Dollars shall be the currency of account in all events and
   (b) in the case of Canadian Dollar Loans, the specification of Canadian
   Dollars and payment at the Canadian Office is of the essence, and with
   respect to such Canadian Dollar Loans, Canadian Dollars shall be the currency
   of account in all events. The payment obligations of the Obligors with
   respect to any Loans or Letter of Credit Obligations under this Agreement or
   amounts payable under the Security Documents and the Notes shall not be
   discharged by an amount paid in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, in the
   case of U.S. Dollar obligations, or Canadian Dollars, in the case of Canadian
   Dollar obligations (each such currency with respect to each such obligation,
   the "REQUIRED CURRENCY"), or at a place other than the Principal Office in
   the case of U.S. Dollar obligations or the Canadian Office in the case of
   Canadian Dollar obligations (each such place with respect to each obligation,
   the "REQUIRED PLACE"), whether pursuant to such judgment or otherwise to the
   extent that the amount so paid on conversion to the Required Currency and
   transfer to the Required Place under normal banking procedures does not yield
   the amount of the Required Currency in the Required Place due hereunder.

   5. REPLACEMENT OF NOTES. The Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
Exhibit A-1, Exhibit A-2, Exhibit A-3 and Exhibit A-4 in their entirety and by

attached hereto; provided, however, that the replacement of the foregoing
Exhibits shall not affect in any way whatsoever the validity or enforceability
of any Note issued and outstanding on or prior to the date of this Agreement.

   6. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each Obligor agrees that, after the date of this
Agreement, each Obligor shall provide such other items and satisfy such other
conditions as may be reasonably required by Successor U.S. Agent, Successor
Canadian Agent or any of the Banks in connection with the appointment of
Successor U.S. Agent and Successor Canadian Agent and the other modifications

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

NACCO Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Per
Share, Unit and Percentage Data)

   THE NORTH AMERICAN
    COAL CORPORATION

     NACoal mines and markets lignite for use primarily as fuel for power
generation by electric utilities. The lignite is surface mined in North Dakota,
Texas and Louisiana. Total coal reserves approximate 2.0 billion tons, with 1.2
billion tons committed to electric utility customers pursuant to long-term
contracts. NACoal operates five lignite mines, including three project mining
subsidiaries ("Coteau," "Falkirk" and "Sabine"), a NACoal division ("San
Miguel") and a joint venture ("Red River"). NACoal also provides dragline mining
services ("Florida dragline operations") for a limerock quarry near Miami,
Florida. The operating results for the Florida dragline operations, San Miguel
and Red River are included in other mining operations.

     During 1997, the Mississippi Lignite Mining Company was formed as a joint
venture between NACoal and Phillips Coal Company. The new company, in which
NACoal has a 25 percent interest, will develop the Red Hills lignite mine near
Ackerman, Mississippi. Development of the mine site has begun and will continue
through 1999, with initial production scheduled for the second half of 2000.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

     NACoal's three project mining subsidiaries (Coteau, Falkirk and Sabine),
which represent a significant portion of NACoal's operations, mine lignite for
utility customers pursuant to long-term contracts at a price based on actual
cost plus an agreed pretax profit per ton. Due to the cost-plus nature of these
contracts, revenues and operating profits are affected by increases and
decreases in operating costs, as well as by tons sold. Net income of these
project mines, however, is not significantly affected by changes in such
operating costs, which include costs of operations, interest expense and certain
other items. Because of the nature of the contracts at these mines, operating
results are best analyzed in terms of lignite tons sold, income before taxes and
net income.

     Lignite tons sold by NACoal's five operating lignite mines were as follows
for the year ended December 31:

</TABLE>


     At the project mines, operating results improved due to increased tons
sold, primarily at Coteau, partially offset by decreased tons sold at Sabine due
to a customer's planned power plant outage. Results from other mining operations
improved due to a full year of production at the San Miguel lignite mining
operation, which began operations in July 1997. Increased income from royalties
was offset completely by increased costs of pursuing new international mining
opportunities.

</TABLE>


     Operating results from project mines declined from 1996 due to a decrease
in the agreed profit per ton, which includes a decrease in project mine
incentive payments received. Incentive payments are received from certain
customers when actual results exceed benchmarks established in the long-term
sales contract. Excluding this variance, operating results at the project mines
were comparable, as increased tons sold by Coteauand Sabine were offset by
decreased tons sold by Falkirk. As compared with 1996, tons sold by Coteau and
Sabine increased due to customer requirements, while tons sold by Falkirk
decreased due to adverse weather conditions during the first quarter of 1997 and
a customer's power plant outage in the first half of 1997. Operating results
from other mining operations improved due to increased tons sold by Red River
and the addition of the San Miguel lignite mining operation, which completed its

first six months of operations in 1997. In 1996, NACoal received a non-recurring
escrow payment, which negatively affects the year-to-year comparison.

     OTHER INCOME, EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES: 
The components of other income (expense) and the effective tax rate are as

Effective tax rate ...     25.9%          29.9%          34.0%
</TABLE>


     In 1997, other-net from other mining operations includes the write-off of
certain non-productive assets, while 1996 includes $4.2 million from the receipt
of the final escrow payment from the 1988 sale of a previously owned eastern
underground mining property. The effective tax rate in 1998 declined due to
additional percentage depletion eligible to reduce NACoal's effective tax. The
reduction in the 1997 effective tax rate results from the resolution of certain
tax issues provided for in previous years.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     NACoal has in place a $50.0 million revolving credit facility. The
expiration date of this facility, which is September 2002, may be extended
annually, for one-year periods, upon the mutual consent of NACoal and the bank
group. NACoal had $47.3 million of its revolving credit facility available at
December 31, 1998.

     The financing of the project mining subsidiaries, which is either provided
or guaranteed by the utility customers, includes long-term equipment leases,
notes payable and advances from customers. The obligations of the project
mining subsidiaries do not affect the short-term or long-term liquidity of
NACoal and are without recourse to NACCO or NACoal. These arrangements allow the
project mining subsidiaries to pay dividends to NACoal in amounts equal to their
retained earnings. NACoal believes that funds available under its revolving
credit agreement, operating cash flows and financing provided by the project
mining subsidiaries' customers are sufficient to finance all of its operating
needs and commitments arising during the foreseeable future.

     NACoal anticipates spending approximately $21.4 million for property, plant
and equipment in 1999, of which $19.2 million relates to the development,
establishment and improvement of the project mining subsidiaries' mines, and is
financed or guaranteed by the utility customers. The 1999 planned expenditures
compare with capital expenditures of $19.6 million incurred in 1998 and $24.8
million incurred in 1997. Planned expenditures primarily include costs to build
infrastructure and to replace aging assets. Also during 1998, NACoal invested
$10.5 million in a joint venture with Phillips Coal Company to develop the Red
Hills lignite mine in Mississippi. During 1999, NACoal anticipates investing an
additional $15.4 million in this joint venture.

     NACoal's capital structure, excluding the project mining subsidiaries, is
presented below:

     The increase in other net tangible assets is primarily due to capital
investments in the Red Hills lignite mining operation, a joint venture with
Phillips Coal Company scheduled to begin production in the second half of 2000.
Advances to parent company and debt related to parent advances declined in 1998
as a result of repayments made by NACCO.

</TABLE>



     At NMHG, overall operating results during 1998 as compared with 1997
improved primarily due to increased unit volume and reduced manufacturing costs.
Worldwide volume increased 16.3 percent to 77,709 units shipped during 1998 from
66,833 units shipped during 1997. Increased demand in the Americas and Europe,
fueled by the strong economies in those regions, contributed to this volume
growth. Unit shipments in Asia-Pacific, however, declined as a result of the
continued weak economies in that region. Revenues were negatively affected by a
reduction in higher-priced units shipped in Europe and Asia-Pacific. Operating
profit and net income, however, were positively affected by increased volumes of
higher-margin units shipped in the Americas and a shift to higher-margin
European markets. In response to increased competition, pricing declined
moderately, especially during the fourth quarter of 1998.

     Increased volume and pricing of service parts, especially in the Americas,
contributed an additional $23.7 million to revenues. However, service parts

contributed only an additional $1.7 million to operating profit, due to margin
erosion in Europe from increased competition and a shift to lower-margin
geographic markets. Foreign currency fluctuations negatively affected operating
results due to the strengthening of the British pound sterling against other
European currencies, which caused price and margin pressure on pound
sterling-based lift trucks. The decrease to operating profit caused by the
stronger pound sterling was partially offset by the reduced cost of Japanese
yen-based materials as a result of the weakening of the yen against the U.S.
dollar and the pound sterling.

     As a result of increased production and a slight reduction in the rate of
incoming orders, the backlog declined to 19,500 units at December 31, 1998,
compared with 22,100 units at December 31, 1997.

     During 1998, NMHG began a strategy of acquiring Hyster and Yale retail
dealerships on a permanent basis to strengthen its position in the lift truck
business. Previously, NMHG had purchased dealerships on a temporary basis,
primarily for the purpose of strengthening the financial position of those
dealerships. This newly adopted strategy resulted in the acquisition and
consolidation of several lift truck dealerships in the current year. Although
these acquisitions were not material to the financial position or operating
results of NMHG, they did result in a net increase in revenues of $31.4 million
and a reduction in net income of $1.4 million, which also reflects the
elimination of intercompany transactions. NMHG intends to expand further its
retail operations over the next several years through acquisitions and growth of
its existing dealerships.

     Manufacturing costs decreased significantly in 1998 due to reduced
materials pricing, savings from NMHG's ongoing process re-engineering programs
("VIP") and higher factory throughput resulting in increased overhead
absorption.

     Other operating expenses increased during 1998 due to increased incentive
compensation and costs to support sales volume growth, partially offset by
employee attrition resulting from NMHG's restructuring program, which began in
1997. For a discussion of other income and expense and the effect of taxes year
over year, see Other Income, Expense and Income Taxes.

1997 COMPARED WITH 1996

     During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Board of Directors approved a plan
to restructure certain operating activities and to relocate certain employees at
NMHG. In accordance with this plan, NMHG recognized special charges of $16.3
million. The restructuring activities included the relocation and consolidation
of certain engineering and marketing functions with the objective of improving
customer service, raising productivity and thereby reducing costs. The
Consolidated Statements of Income include a restructuring charge, which was
recorded in 1997, of $8.0 million ($4.8 million after effective tax provision,
or $0.59 per share). This charge represents severance payments made in 1997 of
$1.1 million to approximately 50 employees and the recognition of a $6.9 million
accrual for additional severance payments and lease termination costs. In 1998,
$2.2 million of the severance accrual was reversed due to the
higher-than-anticipated number of employees willing to relocate.

     In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses in the 1997
Consolidated Statements of Income include a charge of $8.3 million ($5.0 million
after effective tax provision, or $0.61 per share) arising from commitments to
provide relocation benefits to certain employees. In 1998, NMHG incurred an
additional $4.5 million related to increases in temporary labor, moving and
training costs associated with the restructuring program.

    The changes to NMHG's restructuring accrual as announced in 1997 are as
follows:

    Also during 1997, NMHG recognized several tax adjustments that affect
year-to-year comparability. In 1997, management identified certain future
business opportunities and financing alternatives and concluded that the
earnings of its foreign subsidiaries will remain invested offshore for the
foreseeable future. This conclusion resulted in a credit to net income of $15.3
million in 1997, representing the reversal of deferred taxes on unremitted
foreign earnings provided prior to 1997. In addition, NMHG recognized a

allowance of $5.9 million in 1997 against certain deferred tax assets. See Note
17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion of these
items. The net effect of these tax adjustments of $9.4 million (or $1.15 per
share) reduced NACCO's consolidated effective tax rate by 11 percent and reduced
NMHG's effective tax rate by 18 percent in 1997.

</TABLE>


     While revenues in 1997 decreased 4.6 percent, net income increased 46.6
percent. Revenues declined primarily due to a decrease in worldwide unit volume
to 66,833 units in 1997 from 69,389 units in 1996. Unit volume dropped
significantly during the first quarter of 1997 due to decreased demand and
production rates.  However, demand, production rates and, thus, shipments
increased steadily during the last three quarters of 1997 to a level comparable
with the same period of 1996. In addition to decreased unit volume, NMHG's
revenue decline was also caused by: (i) a slight decline in the European market
size, (ii) adverse currency impacts on pricing, (iii) a decrease in the
Asia-Pacific market size and (iv) a decline in Asia-Pacific's market share due
to intense competition.

     Although revenues declined in 1997, worldwide backlog increased to 22,100
units at December 31, 1997, from 11,700 units at December 31, 1996.

     The strengthening of the British pound sterling during 1997 had an adverse
impact on NMHG's revenues, operating profit and net income. This impact on
operating profit and net income was partially offset, however, by significant
savings from material purchases denominated in Japanese yen, which weakened
against the U.S. dollar.

     Excluding the effects of the restructuring charge, the employee relocation
provision and the tax adjustments discussed previously, operating profit and net
income increased compared with 1996. This increase primarily resulted from
improved manufacturing efficiencies, savings from process re-engineering, gains
from strategic supplier alliances, favorable sales mix and increased parts
sales. In addition, net income increased due to lower interest expense as a
result of reduced borrowings, reflecting strong operating cash flows and the
impact of the sale of certain accounts receivable.

     The decline in interest expense in 1998 and 1997, compared with 1996,
resulted from both a decrease in the effective interest rate and reduced average
borrowings. The reduction in the average borrowings was facilitated by improved
cash flow from operations and proceeds from the sale of certain accounts
receivable.

     In 1998, other-net includes non-recurring income of $4.6 million for
settlements from legal proceedings. Other-net also includes equity in the
earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, including Sumitomo-NACCO Materials
Handling Group ("S-N"), a 50 percent-owned joint venture, and gains and losses
on the sale of assets, including receivables. In 1998, other-net included income
of $0.5 million from S-N, compared with income of $0.4 million in 1997 and $1.5
million in 1996. Discounts on the sale of domestic and international receivables
were $3.2 million in 1998, $4.3 million in 1997 and $1.8 million in 1996,
reflecting the 1997 addition of the domestic sale of receivables.

    As noted previously, the net effect of an adjustment to reverse the reserve
for taxes on unremitted foreign earnings and the recognition of a valuation
allowance against certain deferred tax assets resulted in an 18 percent
reduction in the effective tax rate in 1997. The effective tax rates for 1998
and 1996 exclude these one-time items. The 1998 effective tax rate reflects the
absence of a provision for certain deferred taxes on unremitted foreign earnings
in accordance with the Company's policy established in 1997. In addition, the
effective tax rate in 1998 was reduced by a shift in income to jurisdictions
with lower tax rates and the effect of a fixed amount of nondeductible goodwill
amortization on an increased level of pre-tax income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     NMHG has a $350.0 million revolving credit facility that expires in June
2002, but may be extended annually, for one-year periods, upon the mutual
consent of NMHG and the bank group. In addition, the NMHG facility has
performance-based pricing, which sets interest rates based upon the achievement
of certain financial performance targets. At December 31, 1998, NMHG had
available $157.3 million of its $350.0 million revolving credit facility. NMHG
also has separate credit facilities totaling $50.1 million, of which $38.6
million was available at December 31, 1998, and maintains additional uncommitted
lines of credit, of which $35.4 million was available at December 31, 1998. NMHG
believes that funds available under its credit facilities and operating cash
flows are sufficient to finance all of its operating needs and commitments
arising during the foreseeable future.

     NMHG anticipates spending approximately $56.5 million for property, plant
and equipment in 1999, compared with capital expenditures of $63.9 million in
1998 and $25.3 million in 1997. Planned expenditures in 1999 include investments
in existing retail operations, manufacturing facilities, worldwide information
systems and tooling for new products. The increase in the capital expenditures
in 1998 over 1997 resulted from significant capital projects undertaken,
including: the centralization of NMHG's marketing and engineering organizations
in connection with its restructuring plan and investments in manufacturing
facilities, including new plants constructed in Mexico and China, worldwide
information systems and tooling for new products. In 1999, NMHG anticipates
continuing investments in business acquisitions in amounts that may exceed the
1998 acquisition investment of $16.6 million. The principal sources of financing
for these capital expenditures and acquisitions are internally generated funds
and bank borrowings.

     In 1997, NMHG entered into an agreement with a financial institution to
sell an undivided percentage ownership interest in certain eligible domestic
accounts receivable, on a revolving basis, up to a maximum of $60.0 million. The
expiration date of this agreement, which was extended to August 1999 during
1998, may be extended for one-year periods through April 2001, upon the mutual
consent of both parties. As of December 31, 1998, $37.7 million of NMHG's trade
receivables were sold in accordance with this agreement, and are reflected in
the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a reduction of accounts receivable, net. The
proceeds from the initial sale of receivables in 1997 were used to reduce the
level of borrowings under NMHG's revolving credit facility. In connection with
this transaction, NMHG's $350.0 million revolving credit facility was amended in
1997 to provide that the total credit available at any point in time will be
reduced by the amount of domestic receivables sold at such time.

     The increase in net tangible assets of $111.7 million is partially due to
business acquisitions, which increased net tangible assets by approximately
$50.0 million. Excluding the effect of these acquisitions, net tangible assets
increased $61.7 million primarily due to a $9.9 million increase in accounts
receivable; a $20.6 million increase in inventory; and a $33.1 million increase
in property, plant and equipment, net. The increase in accounts receivable
reflects the growth in sales volume. Increased inventories reflect a build-up of
inventory necessary to support increased sales volume in 1998.

     In 1998, NMHG entered into a joint venture to manufacture forklift trucks
in China. NMHG holds a direct 55.0 percent interest in this venture and, thus,
NMHG's 1998 balance sheet reflects the consolidation of this joint venture. The
$3.9 million minority interest liability reflects the portion of the venture's
equity owned by the minority partners.

     Increased debt reflects financing needed to fund an $18.0 million advance
to NACCO and capital leases assumed upon the acquisition of various retail
dealerships.

     NACCO
 HOUSEWARES GROUP

     In the second quarter of 1998, the Company began reporting the results of
HB-PS and KCI on a combined basis as NACCO Housewares Group. This reporting
change was made in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," to reflect the change in management's perspective of the
relationship between these two subsidiaries. Management concluded that a closer
working relationship between these two subsidiaries, which operate in the same
segment, housewares, may prove synergistic for the Company.

     See page 22 for a description of HB-PS, wholly owned by NACCO, and
KCI, wholly owned by NACCO. Because the housewares business is seasonal, a
majority of revenues and operating profit occurs in the second half of the year
when sales of small electric appliances to retailers and consumers increase
significantly for the fall holiday selling season.

    The results of operations for NACCO Housewares Group were as follows for the
year ended December 31:

</TABLE>


     Operating results at Housewares improved primarily due to improved
operating results at HB-PS. Unit volume at HB-PS increased 9.6 percent to 36.6
million units sold in 1998 from 33.4 million units sold in 1997. Increased
demand from key mass merchants, specifically for indoor grills, blenders,
toasters and irons, significantly contributed to unit volume growth. Net income
improved due to a shift in sales mix to higher-margin products, partially offset
by continued price decreases due to competition from Chinese imports. The
strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar resulted in a
decrease to operating profit of approximately $2.5 million, primarily due to
translating Canadian dollar revenues to a stronger U.S. dollar. This decrease to
operating profit was partially mitigated by price increases introduced in the
Canadian market that increased revenue and operating profit by approximately
$0.3 million.

     Manufacturing costs declined due to increased production at more
cost-efficient Mexican plants and reduced materials costs. These reduced
manufacturing expenses were partially offset by cost increases related to
transferring activities to manufacturing facilities in Mexico, including a $3.2
million pre-tax restructuring charge recognized in 1998. Operating costs
increased to support sales growth. In addition, operating costs in 1998 include
increased legal fees, advertising costs and provisions for potential bad debts.
Revenues and net income from KCI improved slightly due to the addition of three
new stores during the year.

1997 COMPARED WITH 1996

     The following schedule identifies the components of the changes in
revenues, operating profit and net income for 1997 compared with 1996:

   statutory tax rates ........               -                -             (.7)
                                         ------           ------          ------
1997 ..........................          $495.8           $ 26.1          $ 10.5

</TABLE>

     Housewares' operating results were driven primarily by operating results at
HB-PS. Revenues from HB-PS in 1997 grew due to increased unit volume, partially
offset by a decline in the average sales price per unit. Increased volume to
33.4 million units in 1997 from 29.6 million units in 1996 resulted from
increased sales of toasters, blenders, hand mixers and irons, partially offset
by decreased sales of toaster ovens, roasters and can openers. These volume
increases were largely driven by increased sales to key mass merchants,
resulting in improved market share. The increase in operating profit and net
income resulting from this volume growth was almost entirely offset by price
decreases, which were necessary to compete with Chinese imports.

     Net income declined due to increased employee costs at both HB-PS and KCI,
start-up costs of HB-PS' Saltillo facility, expenses to reduce HB-PS'
manufacturing activities in the United States and increased interest expense due
to higher average debt levels.

     OTHER INCOME, EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES: The components of other income
(expense) and the effective tax rate are as follows for the year ended December
31:

Effective tax rate .......            43.2%             43.7%             39.1%
</TABLE>


     The effective tax rate in 1996 was reduced by the utilization of foreign
tax credits. In addition, the effective tax rate for 1996 was also reduced by
favorable income tax adjustments relating to the resolution of tax issues from
prior years.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     HB-PS' credit agreement provides for a revolving credit facility ("HB-PS
Facility") that: (i) permits advances up to $160.0 million, (ii) is secured by
substantially all of HB-PS' assets, (iii) provides lower interest rates if HB-
PS achieves certain interest coverage ratios and (iv) allows for interest rates
quoted under a competitive bid option. The HB-PS Facility expires in May 2003.
At December 31, 1998, HB-PS had $63.6 million available under this facility. In
addition, HB-PS has separate uncommitted facilities that permitted $27.5 million
of additional borrowings at December 31, 1998.

     In 1998, the HB-PS Facility was amended to allow advances of up to $10.0
million from HB-PS to KCI. Subsequent to this amendment, KCI's cash requirements
are financed through advances from HB-PS. Accordingly, in 1998, KCI terminated
its external revolving credit facility. Housewares believes that funds available
under its credit facilities and operating cash flows are sufficient to finance
all of its operating needs and commitments arising during the foreseeable
future.

     Housewares anticipates spending approximately $24.2 million for property,
plant and equipment in 1999, compared with capital expenditures of $16.8 million
in 1998 and $18.3 million in 1997. Planned expenditures for 1999 include tooling
for new products and machinery and equipment, which will be used primarily to
reduce manufacturing costs and increase efficiency. These expenditures are
funded primarily from internally generated funds and bank borrowings.

    Housewares' capital structure is presented below:

Debt to total
 capitalization ........................                39%                 38%
</TABLE>


     Total net tangible assets increased $25.5 million primarily due to a $14.2
million increase in inventory; a $2.6 million increase in net property, plant
and equipment; and a $6.2 million decrease in accounts payable. Increased
inventories reflect a build-up of inventory necessary to support increased sales
volume and potential growth opportunities. Accounts payable decreased primarily
due to the timing of payments.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

NACCO Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Per
Share, Unit and Percentage Data)

 NACCO AND OTHER
FINANCIAL REVIEW

     NACCO and Other includes the parent company operations and Bellaire
Corporation ("Bellaire"), a non-operating subsidiary of NACCO. Although
Bellaire's operations are immaterial, it has significant long-term liabilities
related to closed mines, primarily from former eastern U.S. underground
coal-mining activities. Cash payments related to Bellaire's obligations, net of
internally generated cash, are funded by NACCO and historically have not been
material.

     The results of operations at NACCO and Other were as follows for the year
ended December 31:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Although NACCO's subsidiaries have entered into substantial borrowing
agreements, NACCO has not guaranteed the long-term debt or any borrowings of its
subsidiaries.

     During 1997, NMHG achieved a specified covenant release as provided in its
borrowing agreement. Therefore, dividends or advances from NMHG to its
stockholders are not restricted. There are no restrictions on the transfer of
assets from NACoal to NACCO. The borrowing agreement at NACCO Housewares Group
allows for the payment of dividends to NACCO under certain circumstances.
Dividends, advances and management fees from its subsidiaries are the primary
sources of cash for NACCO.

     The Company believes that funds available under credit facilities,
anticipated funds generated from operations and the utility customers' funding
of the project mining subsidiaries are sufficient to finance all of its
operating needs and commitments arising during the foreseeable future.

     NACCO's consolidated capital structure is presented below:

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     The Company has not yet adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities;" Statement of Position ("SOP") No. 98-1,
"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
Internal Use;" or SOP No. 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities."
A discussion of these new standards is included in Note 2 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements.

EFFECTS OF FOREIGN CURRENCY AND INFLATION

     NMHG and HB-PS operate internationally and enter into transactions
denominated in foreign currencies. As a result, the Company is subject to the
variability that arises from exchange rate movements. The effects of foreign
currency on operating results at NMHG and HB-PS are discussed above. The
Company's use of foreign currency derivative contracts is discussed under the
heading, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk."

     The Company believes that inflation has not materially affected its results
of operations in 1998, and does not expect inflation to be a significant item in
1999.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

     The Company's manufacturing operations, like those of other companies
engaged in similar businesses, involve the use, disposal and cleanup of
substances regulated under environmental protection laws. The Company's NACoal
subsidiary is affected by the regulations of agencies under which it operates,
particularly the Federal Office of Surface Mining, the United States
Environmental Protection Agency and associated state regulatory authorities. In
addition, NACoal closely monitors proposed legislation concerning the Clean Air
Act Amendments of 1990, reauthorization of the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act, the Clean Water Act, the Endangered Species Act and other
regulatory actions.

     Compliance with these increasingly stringent standards could result in
higher expenditures for both capital improvements and operating costs. The
Company's policies stress environmental responsibility and compliance with these
regulations. Based on current information, management does not expect compliance
with these regulations to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.

YEAR 2000

     Year 2000 ("Y2K") issues exist because many information technology ("IT")
and non-information technology ("non-IT") systems were designed to recognize
years by reference to only the last two digits of the year. As a result, these
systems assume the relevant year begins with "19." These systems could fail or
produce erroneous information if they are not modified to recognize dates
beginning with "20."

     STATE OF READINESS: NACCO and each of its subsidiaries have developed a
formal compliance plan to address the Y2K issue. The audit committee of the
Board of Directors is periodically updated on each company's progress in
addressing the Y2K issue. The companies' compliance plans encompass the
evaluation of IT and non-IT systems, as well as an assessment of third parties'
readiness and the extent to which third-party representations can be relied
upon. Furthermore, the execution of the Company's compliance plans has been
prioritized in terms of significance to the Company's ability to generate
revenues, income and cash flows. The following discussion addresses IT and
non-IT systems that may have a material effect on the Company's ability to
generate revenues, income and cash flows. The compliance plans are categorized
into one of four phases: (i) awareness, (ii) assessment, (iii) renovation and
(iv) validation and implementation (testing).

     IT SYSTEMS: The Company has completed its assessment of all of its IT
systems and the renovation of substantially all of its IT systems. NMHG and
NACoal plan to complete renovation and testing of all IT systems by June 1999;
Housewares plans to complete renovation and testing of all IT systems by April
1999.

     NON-IT SYSTEMS: The Company's Y2K compliance plan also addresses non-IT
systems with date-sensitive operating controls such as computer-controlled
manufacturing and mining equipment; heating, ventilating and cooling systems;
fire alarms, phone, voice mail, security and other similar systems. At NMHG, the
assessment, renovation and testing of non-IT systems is targeted to be completed
by July 1999. As of March 1998, all of Housewares' computer-controlled
manufacturing equipment was validated to be Y2K ready. As of January 1999, the
remainder of Housewares' non-IT systems was validated to be Y2K ready. At
NACoal, assessment and testing of critical computer-controlled equipment and
other non-IT systems are scheduled to be completed by June 1999.

     THIRD PARTIES: The Company has contacted substantially all of its
third-party, critical-component suppliers. NMHG supplier surveys indicated that
approximately 70 percent of NMHG's critical suppliers were Y2K ready as of
December 1998, with the remainder targeting compliance by the end of 1999. NMHG
will begin testing its critical-component suppliers' order entry and
acknowledgment systems in the first quarter of 1999. At Housewares, supplier
surveys indicated that approximately 85 percent of Housewares' critical
suppliers are currently Y2K ready or have a plan in place to be ready by the end
of 1999. The remainder of Housewares' critical suppliers have not yet responded
to the survey. The Company continues to pursue responses from those suppliers.
Housewares plans to perform tests of Y2K readiness of critical suppliers in July
1999. NACoal has surveyed its critical vendors, but only

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

Share, Unit and Percentage Data)



50 percent have responded. NACoal plans to pursue responses and create
contingency plans to mitigate any problems with critical vendors. Of those who
have responded, approximately 80 percent have indicated that they have a plan to
be Y2K ready by the end of 1999.

     The Company has contacted its critical utility providers, financial
institutions and customers to assess their Y2K readiness. The majority of these
third-party partners have indicated that they are ready or have a plan in place
to be Y2K ready by December 31, 1999. The Company continues to monitor their
progress and remains in contact with critical partners, such as NACoal's power
plant customers. The Company will develop contingency plans as it becomes aware
of the potential for critical third-party partners' non-compliance.

     COSTS TO ADDRESS Y2K ISSUES: The Company received and implemented computer
software upgrades, under normal maintenance agreements with third-party vendors,
that enabled substantially all of the Company's IT systems to be Y2K ready. As
such, costs to address the Y2K issue have not been, and are not expected to be,
material to the Company. Internal and external costs incurred to date have been
approximately $4.3 million. The Company estimates an additional $1.8 million
will be expended during 1999 relating to this issue. These costs have been and
are expected to be funded by cash flows from operations.

     CONTINGENCY PLANS: While some contingency plans have been formalized, other
contingency plans continue to be formulated. Such contingency plans, both those
formalized and those under discussion, include, if necessary, building a safety
stock of critical components prior to January 1, 2000; requiring certain
suppliers to maintain a safety stock; or locating alternate suppliers that are
Y2K ready. The Company plans to replace, to the extent possible, those vendors
who have not responded to surveys or have indicated "no plan in place" by
September 1999. The Company plans to develop a risk assessment guide that will
enable the Company to identify customers who may have cash flow troubles due to
non-compliance. The Company may need to reduce the extension of credit, selling
terms or amount of shipments to those customers.

     The Company's Y2K efforts are ongoing, and its overall plan, as well as the
consideration of contingency plans, will continue to evolve as new information
becomes available. While the Company anticipates continuity of its business
activities, that continuity will be dependent upon its ability, and the ability
of third parties on which the Company relies, directly and indirectly, to be Y2K
ready.

     RISKS OF THE COMPANY'S Y2K ISSUES: Although the Company believes it has a
compliance plan that will mitigate the risk that the Y2K issue will have a
material adverse effect on the Company, the ultimate impact of this issue on the
Company is uncertain. Suppliers' failure to deliver critical components, third
parties' failure to supply power and/or telecommunication systems to
manufacturing plants or mines, or the Company's failure to complete, in a timely
manner, the updating of computer-controlled manufacturing equipment could result
in delayed delivery of products to customers, which could have a material
adverse effect on earnings and cash flow. In addition, customers' non-compliance
could result in the loss of customers or a customer's inability to purchase or
pay for products, which could have a material adverse effect on earnings and
cash flow.

     The Company has not yet finished its assessment, renovation and testing of
all areas of Y2K readiness. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the Y2K
issue will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position, results of operations or cash flows. See "Outlook" for additional
risks and uncertainties associated with Y2K compliance.

EURO CONVERSION

    On January 1, 1999, 11 of the 15 countries that are members of the European
Union introduced a new currency unit called the "Euro," which will ultimately
replace the national currencies of these 11 countries. The conversion rates
between the Euro and the participating nations' currencies were fixed
irrevocably as of January 1, 1999, with the participating national currencies
being removed from circulation between January 1, 2002 and June 30, 2002, and
replaced by Euro notes and coinage. During the "transition period" from January
1, 1999 through December 31, 2001,

Share, Unit and Percentage Data)


public and private entities as well as individuals may pay for goods and
services using either checks, drafts or wire transfers denominated in Euro or
the participating country's national currency.

     Under the regulations governing the transition to a single currency, there
is a "no compulsion, no prohibition" rule, which states that no one is obligated
to use the Euro until the notes and coinage have been introduced on January 1,
2002. In keeping with this rule, as of January 1, 1999, the Company is now also
able to (i) receive Euro-denominated payments, (ii) invoice in Euro as
requested by vendors and suppliers and (iii) perform appropriate conversion and
rounding calculations. Full conversion of all affected country operations to the
Euro is expected to be completed by the time national currencies are removed
from circulation. The cost of software and business process conversion required
to achieve such abilities is not expected to be material.

     The Company does not anticipate that the introduction and use of the Euro
will materially affect the Company's foreign exchange and hedging activities or
the Company's use of derivative instruments, or will have a material adverse
effect on operating results or cash flows. However, the ultimate effect of the
Euro on competition due to price transparency and foreign currency risk cannot
yet be determined and may have an adverse effect, possibly material, on the
Company's operations, financial position or cash flows. Conversely, introduction
of the Euro may also have positive effects, such as lower foreign currency risk
and reduced prices of raw materials resulting from increased competition among
suppliers. The Company continues to monitor and assess the potential risks
imposed by the Euro.

OUTLOOK

     NACOAL: NACoal's customers have forecasted that their 1999 demand will
remain consistent with 1998 levels, except at the Sabine mining operation in
Texas, where a customer's unplanned power plant outage during 1999 is
temporarily interrupting lignite deliveries to the plant. As a result, NACoal
anticipates that its total volume of lignite deliveries in the first quarter of
1999 will be lower compared with 1998's first quarter.  NACoal anticipates
decreased royalty income in 1999 due to reduced third-party mining activity of
its Eastern underground coal reserves. NACoal expects to continue incurring
expenses in 1999 for the development of international mining opportunities and
the Mississippi- based Red Hills mine, in which it owns a 25 percent interest,
and which is scheduled to begin production in the second half of 2000. NACoal
also expects to recognize a net after-tax reduction to net income of
approximately one million dollars in the first quarter of 1999 for the
cumulative effect of an accounting change related to the recognition of mine
start-up costs.

     NMHG: NMHG anticipates a moderate reduction in lift truck industry factory
bookings for the North American and European markets in 1999 compared with 1998.
Industry demand in the Asia-Pacific market, which represents less than 5 percent
of sales, is expected to be flat or increase slightly. As a result of these
softer markets, NMHG anticipates some price pressure. However, NMHG expects that
its cost reduction initiatives, including Value Improvement, Demand Flow
Technology, infrastructure reorganization and its new Saltillo, Mexico
manufacturing plant, will have a positive effect on net income in 1999. NMHG
also expects that its strategy of strengthening its distribution system will
involve the permanent acquisition of additional retail dealerships worldwide.

     HOUSEWARES: HB-PS is expected to continue increasing production capacity in
1999 at its new Saltillo manufacturing facility by transferring additional
toaster and motor assembly operations. Increased manufacturing efficiencies are
expected to continue at the Saltillo facility in 1999. Housewares also expects
to introduce additional Hamilton Beach((R)) product line extensions and to place
increased emphasis on international sales. Continued competition from Chinese
imports is also anticipated. KCI plans to continue testing conventional retail
formats in medium-sized markets.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES
ABOUT MARKET RISK

INTEREST RATE RISK

     The Company's subsidiaries, NMHG, HB-PS and NACoal, have entered into
certain financing arrangements that require interest payments based on floating
interest rates. As such, the Company's financial results are subject to changes
in the market rate of interest. To reduce the exposure to changes in the market
rate of interest, the Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements for
a portion of its floating rate financing arrangements. The Company does not
enter into interest rate swap agreements for trading purposes. Terms of the
interest rate swap agreements require the subsidiaries to receive a variable
interest rate and pay a fixed interest rate. See also Note 2 and Note 13 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements.

     For purposes of specific risk analysis, the Company uses sensitivity
analysis to measure the potential loss in fair value of financial instruments
sensitive to changes in interest rates. Assuming a hypothetical 10 percent
decrease in the interest rates as of December 31, 1998, the fair market value of
interest rate-sensitive financial instruments, which primarily represents
interest rate swap agreements, would decline by $1.9 million as compared with
their fair market value at December 31, 1998.

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

     NMHG and HB-PS operate internationally and enter into transactions
denominated in foreign currencies. As such, their financial results are subject
to the variability that arises from exchange rate movements. NMHG and HB-PS use
forward foreign currency exchange contracts to partially reduce risks related to
transactions denominated in foreign currencies and not for trading purposes.
These contracts mature within one year and require the companies to buy or sell
Japanese yen, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars or various European
currencies for the functional currency in which the applicable subsidiary
operates at rates agreed to at the inception of the contracts. See also Note 2
and Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

     For purposes of specific risk analysis, the Company uses sensitivity
analysis to measure the potential loss in fair value of financial instruments
sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Assuming a hypothetical
10 percent strengthening of the U.S. dollar as compared with other foreign
currencies at December 31, 1998, the fair market value of foreign
currency-sensitive financial instruments, which primarily represents forward
foreign currency exchange contracts, would decline by $3.8 million as compared
with their fair market value at December 31, 1998. It is important to note that
the loss in fair market value indicated in this sensitivity analysis would be
somewhat offset by changes in the fair market value of the underlying
receivables, payables and net investments in foreign subsidiaries.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NACCO Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Per
Share, Unit and Percentage Data)

NOTE 1 - PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND
NATURE OF OPERATIONS

     The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of NACCO
Industries, Inc. ("NACCO," the parent company) and its majority-owned
subsidiaries (NACCO Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries - the "Company").
Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. The Company has four
operating subsidiaries that function in three principal business segments: lift
trucks, housewares and lignite mining. NACCO Materials Handling Group, Inc.
("NMHG") designs, engineers and manufactures a full line of lift trucks and
replacement parts marketed worldwide under the Hyster((R)) and Yale((R)) brand
names. The sale of replacement parts represents approximately 17 percent, 18
percent and 16 percent of the total NMHG revenues as reported for 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively. NACCO Housewares Group ("Housewares") consists of Hamilton
Beacho Proctor-Silex, Inc. ("HB-PS"), a leading manufacturer and marketer of
small electric motor and heat-driven\appliances as well as commercial products
for restaurants, bars and hotels, and The Kitchen Collection, Inc. ("KCI"), a
national specialty retailer of brand-name kitchenware, small electric appliances
and related accessories. The North American Coal Corporation ("NACoal") mines
and markets lignite primarily as fuel for power generation by electric
utilities.

NOTE 2 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities (if any) at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks
and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
INVENTORIES: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for manufacturing
inventories in the United States and for certain retail inventories. The
first-in, first-out (FIFO) method is used with respect to all other inventories.

     PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT: Property, plant and equipment are recorded
at cost. Depreciation, depletion and amortization are provided in amounts
sufficient to amortize the cost of the assets, including assets recorded under
capital leases, over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line
method. The units-of-production method is used to amortize certain coal-related
assets based on estimated recoverable tonnages.

     GOODWILL: Goodwill represents the excess purchase price paid over the fair
value of the net assets acquired. The amortization of goodwill is provided on a
straight-line basis over a 40-year period. Accumulated amortization of goodwill
was $136.5 million and $122.0 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Management regularly evaluates its accounting for goodwill,
considering such factors as historical and future profitability, and believes
that the asset is realizable and the amortization period remains appropriate.

     SELF-INSURANCE RESERVES: The Company is generally self-insured for product
liability, environmental liability, medical and workers' compensation claims,
certain closed mine liabilities and obligations to the United Mine Workers of
America Combined Benefit Fund ("UMWA") arising as a result of the Coal Industry
Retiree Health Benefit Act of 1992 ("Coal Act"). For product liability,
catastrophic coverage is retained for potentially significant individual claims.
An estimated provision for claims under the self-insurance programs is recorded
and revised annually based on industry trends, historical experience and
management judgment. Changes in assumptions for such matters as legal actions,
medical costs and actual experience could cause estimates to change in the near
term.

     REVENUE RECOGNITION: Revenues are recognized when customer orders are
completed and shipped. Accruals for the cost of product warranties are
maintained for anticipated future claims.

     ADVERTISING COSTS: Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted
to $41.5 million, $36.8 million and $33.6 million in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

     PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT COSTS: Expenses associated with the development of new
products and changes to existing products are charged to expense as incurred.
These costs amounted to $44.1 million, $27.9 million and $27.0 million in 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively.

     FOREIGN CURRENCY: Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are
translated into U.S. dollars at the fiscal year-end exchange rate. The related
translation


                                       43
<PAGE>   24


- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NACCO Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Per
Share, Unit and Percentage Data)

adjustments are recorded as a separate component of stockholders' equity.
Revenues and expenses are translated using the monthly average exchange rates
prevailing during the year.

     FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: Financial
instruments held by the Company include cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable, revolving credit agreements, long-term debt,
interest rate swap agreements and forward foreign currency exchange contracts.
The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments or derivative financial
instruments for trading purposes.

     The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to partially
reduce risks related to transactions denominated in foreign currencies. These
contracts hedge primarily firm commitments and, to a lesser degree, forecasted
transactions relating to cash flows associated with sales and purchases
denominated in currencies other than the subsidiaries' functional currency.
Generally, gains and losses from changes in the market value of these contracts
are recognized in cost of sales and offset the foreign exchange gains and losses
on the underlying transactions.

     The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to partially reduce risks
related to floating rate financing agreements that are subject to changes in the
market rate of interest. Terms of the interest rate swap agreements require the
Company to receive a variable interest rate and pay a fixed interest rate. The
Company's interest rate swap agreements and its variable rate financings are
predominately based upon the three-month LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate).

     Amounts to be paid or received under the interest rate swap agreements are
accrued as interest rates change and are recognized over the life of the swap
agreement as an adjustment to interest expense. The related amounts payable to,
or receivable from, the counterparties are included in other current
liabilities. Changes in the market value of the interest rate swap agreements
are not recognized in net income. However, in the event of extinguishment of the
underlying debt, changes in the market value of interest rate swap agreements
that could not be designated as hedges of other assets, liabilities or
anticipated transactions would be recognized in net income over the remaining
life of the contract or upon termination of the contract.

     ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED: In June 1998, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This Statement establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging
activities. It requires companies to recognize all derivatives on the balance
sheet as assets and liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains or losses
resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives would be accounted for
depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge
accounting. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after 
June 15, 1999. The Company will adopt this Statement on January 1, 2000, and is
in the process of determining the effect that adoption will have on its 
financial statements.

     In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
("AICPA") issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs
of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use," which is effective
for the Company as of January 1, 1999. This SOP requires capitalization of
certain development costs of software to be used internally.

     In April 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of
Start-Up Activities," which is effective for the Company as of January 1, 1999.
This SOP requires start-up and organization costs to be expensed as incurred and
also requires previously deferred start-up costs to be recognized as a
cumulative effect adjustment in the statement of income upon adoption.

     These SOPs, which the Company plans to adopt as of January 1, 1999, are not
expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

     RECLASSIFICATIONS: Certain amounts in the prior periods' Consolidated
Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period's
presentation.

NOTE 3 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

    Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," which requires disclosure of comprehensive income and its
components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. Comprehensive
income is defined as changes in stockholders' equity from non-owner sources and,
for the Company, includes net income, changes in the foreign currency
translation adjustment and changes in


                                       44

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NACCO Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Per
Share, Unit and Percentage Data)

the minimum pension liability adjustment. The adoption of this Statement had no
impact on the Company's net income or stockholders' equity. Prior-year financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the requirements of this
Statement.

NOTE 4 - SPECIAL CHARGES

     RESTRUCTURING CHARGE: In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Board of Directors
approved a plan to restructure certain activities at NMHG and, in accordance
with the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force's Issue No. 94-3, "Accounting for
Restructuring Charges," the Company recognized a restructuring charge of $8.0
million ($4.8 million after effective tax provision) in 1997. The objectives of
this plan included improving customer service, increasing productivity and
reducing costs. To facilitate these objectives, the Company consolidated certain
engineering, marketing and administrative functions within the NMHG
organization.

     As of December 31, 1998, NMHG's restructuring plan is substantially
complete and resulted in the construction of two new engineering and marketing
facilities on Company-owned property, the addition of one new leased
administrative building and the closure of one owned and four leased facilities.
In addition, the plan resulted in the termination of approximately 220
engineering, marketing and administrative employees, which resulted in a net
reduction of approximately 120 employee positions after considering staffing
requirements at remaining facilities. The 1997 charge to earnings of $8.0
million represented severance payments made in 1997 of $1.1 million to
approximately 50 employees and the recognition of a $6.9 million accrual for
additional severance payments and lease termination costs. In 1998, $2.2 million
of the severance accrual was reversed due to the higher-than-anticipated number
of employees willing to relocate.

     In 1998, HB-PS recorded a pre-tax charge of $3.2 million to recognize
severance payments to be made to approximately 450 manufacturing employees in
connection with transitioning activities to HB-PS' Saltillo, Mexico, facility.
No significant payments were made in 1998.

     The changes to NMHG's restructuring accrual as announced in 1997 and to
HB-PS' restructuring accrual as announced in 1998 are as follows:

     SPECIAL CHARGE: In addition to the restructuring charge and in connection
with NMHG's restructuring plan, the Company recognized a charge to earnings of
$8.3 million ($5.0 million after effective tax provision) in 1997 relating to
commitments to provide relocation benefits to certain employees. In 1998, NMHG
incurred an additional $4.5 million related to increases in temporary labor,
moving and training costs associated with the restructuring program. These costs
are classified as selling, general and administrative expenses in the
accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.

NOTE 5 - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SECURITIZATION

     In 1997, NMHG entered into a one-year agreement to sell all of its domestic
accounts receivable, on a revolving basis, to Lift Truck Funding Company, LLC
("LTF"), a wholly owned subsidiary of NMHG. LTF was formed prior to the
execution of this agreement for the purpose of buying and selling accounts
receivable, and is designed to be bankruptcy remote. Also in 1997, NMHG and LTF
entered into a one-year agreement with a financial institution whereby LTF can
sell, on a revolving basis, an undivided percentage ownership interest in
certain eligible accounts receivable, as defined, up to a maximum of $60.0
million. During 1998, both of these one-year agreements were extended an
additional year to expire in 1999.

     This two-step transaction is accounted for as a sale of receivables.
Accordingly, the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets reflect the portion of
receivables transferred to the financial institution as a reduction of accounts
receivable, net. The discount and any other transaction gains and losses are
included in other-net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. NMHG continues
to service the receivables and maintains an

allowance for doubtful accounts based upon the expected collectibility of all
NMHG accounts receivable, including the portion of receivables sold by LTF.
    In accordance with this agreement, gross proceeds of $317.1 million and
$264.0 million were received during 1998 and 1997, respectively, and the balance
of accounts receivable sold at December 31, 1998, and 1997 was $37.7 million and
$18.6 million, respectively. The $33.0 million proceeds from the initial sale of
receivables in 1997 were used to retire debt outstanding under NMHG's revolving
credit agreement. The net effect of the sale of receivables during 1998 and 1997
was not material to the operating results of the Company.

</TABLE>


   NMHG: NMHG's credit agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit
facility ("NMHG Facility") that permits advances up to $350.0 million. However,
this availability is reduced by the portion of domestic receivables sold. (See
Note 5 for a discussion of the sale of domestic accounts receivable.) The June
2002 expiration date of the NMHG Facility may be extended annually, for one
additional year upon the mutual consent of NMHG and the bank group. NMHG does
not anticipate repayment of the outstanding balance in the subsequent fiscal
year. As such, the outstanding balance of this credit facility has been
classified as long-term debt.
    In addition, the NMHG Facility has performance-based pricing, which sets
interest rates based upon the achievement of certain financial performance
targets. The NMHG Facility currently provides for, at NMHG's option, Euro-Dollar
Loans that bear interest at LIBOR plus 0.2 percent and Money Market Loans that
bear interest at Auction Rates (as defined in the agreement) and requires a 0.1
percent fee on the available borrowings. NMHG also has separate facilities
totaling $50.1 million and $38.6 million at December 31, 1998, and 1997,
respectively. Outstanding letters of credit reduce amounts available under these
facilities. At December 31, 1998, and 1997, availability, net of limitations,
under these facilities was $38.6 million and $27.6 million, respectively. NMHG
also maintains various uncommitted lines of credit, which permitted funding up
to $55.0 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997. Under these facilities,
borrowings of $19.6 million were outstanding at December 31, 1998, and no
borrowings were outstanding at December 31, 1997.
   HOUSEWARES: HB-PS' credit agreement provides for a revolving credit facility
("HB-PS Facility") that permits advances up to $160.0 million and is secured by
substantially all of the assets of HB-PS. A portion of the outstanding balance
is classified as long-term debt because it is not expected to be repaid during
the subsequent fiscal year. The HB-PS Facility, which expires in May 2003,
provides reduced interest rates if HB-PS achieves a certain interest coverage
ratio and allows interest rates quoted under a competitive bid option. The HB-
PS Facility currently provides for interest at LIBOR plus 0.3 percent and
requires a 0.2 percent facility fee on the available borrowings. In 1998, the
HB-PS Facility was amended to allow advances of up to $10.0 million from HB-PS
to KCI. As a result of this amendment, KCI's cash requirements are financed
through advances from HB-PS. Accordingly, in 1998 KCI terminated its external
revolving credit facility.
    HB-PS also has separate uncommitted facilities, which may provide funding
up to $30.0 million. Outstanding letters of credit reduce amounts available
under these facilities. At December 31, 1998, and 1997, availability, net of
limitations, under these facilities was $27.5 million and $24.7 million,
respectively.
   NACOAL: NACoal has in place a revolving credit facility ("NACoal Facility")
that permits advances up to $50.0 million and requires a 0.2 percent commitment
and facility fee. The September 2002 expiration date of the NACoal Facility may
be extended annually, for one additional year upon the mutual consent of NACoal
and the bank group. Borrowings bear interest at LIBOR plus 0.4 percent and
availability is limited by the amount of borrowings from NACCO.

    As noted above, the NMHG credit agreement expires in 2002, if renewal
options are not exercised, and the Housewares facility expires in 2003. Interest
paid on revolving credit agreements and long-term debt was $21.5 million, $24.9
million and $32.1 million during 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
    The credit agreements for NMHG, HB-PS and NACoal contain certain covenants
and restrictions. These covenants require, among other things, some or all of
the following: maintenance of certain minimum amounts of net worth and certain
specified ratios of working capital, debt to capitalization, interest coverage
and fixed charge coverage. These ratios are calculated at the subsidiary level.
Restrictions may also include limits on capital expenditures and dividends. At
December 31, 1998, the subsidiaries were in compliance with the covenants in
their credit agreements.

NOTE 10 - OBLIGATIONS OF PROJECT MINING
SUBSIDIARIES
    Three of NACoal's subsidiaries (the "project mining subsidiaries") operate
lignite mines under long-term contracts with various utility customers to sell
lignite at a price based on actual cost plus an agreed pre-tax profit per ton.
The utility customers have arranged and guaranteed the financing for the
development and operation of these subsidiary mines. The obligations of these
project mining subsidiaries included in the Company's Consolidated Balance
Sheets do not affect the short- or long-term liquidity of the Company and are
without recourse to NACCO and its NACoal subsidiary.
    Obligations of project mining subsidiaries, less current maturities, consist
of the following at December 31:

    Advances from customers are used to develop, operate and provide for the
ongoing working capital needs of certain project mining subsidiaries. The
customers have established a repayment schedule for only a portion, or $107.2
million, of the total advances. In addition, a portion of these advances is
non-interest-bearing. The annual maturities of customer advances and promissory
notes are as follows: $16.0 million in 1999, $16.0 million in 2000, $15.5
million in 2001, $15.0 million in 2002, $71.9 million in 2003 and $13.5 million
thereafter.
    Interest paid was $13.0 million, $12.8 million and $13.6 million during
1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The cost of coal, which is passed through to
the utility customers, includes interest expense.
    The project mining subsidiaries' capital lease obligations for mining
equipment have the following future minimum lease payments at December 31, 1998:

    During 1998, 1997 and 1996, the project mining subsidiaries incurred capital
lease obligations of $4.9 million, $6.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively,
in connection with lease agreements to acquire plant and equipment.
    The above obligations are secured by substantially all of the owned assets
of the respective project mining subsidiary and the assignment of all rights
under its coal sales agreement.

    The UMWA obligation and the other closed mine obligations relate to The
Bellaire Corporation's ("Bellaire," a wholly owned non-operating subsidiary of
NACCO) former Eastern U.S. underground mining operations and the Indian Head
Mine, which ceased operations in 1992. The obligation to UMWA resulted from the
Coal Act, which requires Bellaire to incur additional costs for retiree medical
expenses of certain United Mine Worker retirees. Annual cash payments of up to
$3.0 million after tax are expected relating to this obligation and could
continue for as long as 40 to 50 years. The Company has recorded this obligation
on an undiscounted basis. The reserve for future interest represents the portion
of this reserve comprising interest costs. The other closed mine obligations
include reserves for land reclamation and site treatment at certain closed
Eastern underground and Western surface mines, as well as reserves for worker
compensation and black lung benefit costs.
    Other self-insurance reserves include product liability reserves, employee
retirement obligations and other miscellaneous reserves.

1997. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
concentration of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable and
derivatives. Concentration of credit risk on accounts receivable is mitigated by
the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base and their
dispersion across many different industries and geographies. The Company enters
into derivative contracts with high-quality financial institutions and limits
the amount of credit exposure to any one institution.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

    FOREIGN CURRENCY DERIVATIVES: NMHG and HB-PS had forward foreign currency
exchange contracts outstanding in the amounts of $72.4 million and $1.9 million,
respectively, at December 31, 1998, primarily denominated in Japanese yen,
French francs, Spanish pesetas and Canadian dollars. At December 31, 1997, NMHG
and HB-PS had forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding in the
amounts of $75.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, primarily denominated
in Japanese yen, British pounds sterling, French francs and Canadian dollars.
The amount of deferred loss at December 31, 1998 and 1997 was not material. The
fair market value of these contracts was estimated based on quoted market
sources and approximated a net receivable of $4.7 million and a net payable of
$2.5 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

</TABLE>

    At the inception of the interest rate swap agreements held by NMHG, terms
vary from one-year to seven-year periods. At December 31, 1998, NMHG
holds certain contracts that begin in 1999 and extend to January 2004. These
contracts increase the notional amount outstanding to $190.0 million in 1999.
Terms of Housewares' interest rate swap agreements vary from one-year to
three-year periods. At NACoal, the interest rate swap agreements hedge
promissory notes held by the project mining subsidiaries (see Note 10).
Maturities of the NACoal interest rate swap agreements correspond with the
maturities of the hedged obligation. The related obligation is included in
obligations of project mining subsidiaries in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The net interest expense paid or received is included in the cost of coal and
passed through to the utility customers.
    The fair market value of all interest rate swap agreements, which was
obtained from broker quotes, was a net payable of $7.5 million and $6.4 million
at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

NOTE 14-CONTINGENCIES
    Various legal proceedings and claims have been or may be asserted against
NACCO and certain subsidiaries relating to the conduct of their businesses,
including product liability and environmental claims. These proceedings are
incidental to their ordinary course of business. Management believes that it has
meritorious defenses and will vigorously defend itself in these actions. Any
costs that management estimates will be paid as a result of these claims are
accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be
reasonably estimated. Although the ultimate disposition of these proceedings is
not presently determinable, management believes, after consultation with its
legal counsel, that the likelihood that material costs will be incurred in
excess of accruals already recognized is remote.
    NMHG is subject to recourse or repurchase obligations under various
financing arrangements for certain independently owned retail dealerships. Also,
certain dealer loans are guaranteed by NMHG. When NMHG is the guarantor of the
principal amount financed, a security interest is usually maintained in certain
assets of parties for whom NMHG is guaranteeing debt. Total amounts subject to
recourse or repurchase obligations at December 31, 1998 and 1997 were $196.0
million and $156.9 million, respectively. Losses anticipated under the terms of
the recourse or repurchase obligations are not significant and have been 
reserved for in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 15 - COMMON STOCK
    The Class A common stock has one vote per share and the Class B common stock
has 10 votes per share. The total number of authorized shares of Class A common
stock and Class B common stock at December 31, 1998 was 25,000,000 shares and
6,756,176 shares, respectively. Treasury shares of Class A common stock totaling
1,663,607 and 1,630,282 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, have been
deducted from shares issued.
   STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM: In 1996, the Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase of up to 1.5 million shares of the Company's Class A common stock.
Pursuant to this authorization, the Company commenced an issuer tender offer in
1996 and repurchased 800,000 shares at $50.00 per share. The $40.4 million cost
of this transaction, including fees and expenses, was financed using cash on
hand and amounts available under revolving credit facilities. In addition to the
offer, the Company was authorized to make open market share repurchases up to
700,000 shares of Class A common stock through December 31, 1998. In 1998 and
1997, the Company repurchased 46,500 and 53,000 shares of Class A common stock,
respectively, pursuant to this open market share repurchase program.
   STOCK OPTIONS: The 1975 and 1981 stock option plans, as amended, provide for
the granting to officers and other key employees of options to purchase Class A
and Class B common stock of the Company at a price not less than the market
value of such stock at the date of grant. Options become exercisable over a
four-year period and expire 10 years from the date of the grant. At December 31,
1998, 1997 and 1996, all stock options outstanding were exercisable.
    At December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, there were 80,701 shares of Class A
common stock and 80,100 shares of Class B common stock available for grant. In
1998 and 1997, no options were granted; however, options for 1,800 and 4,000
shares of Class A common stock, respectively, were exercised. No options were
granted or exercised during 1996. At December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, there
were options outstanding relating to 0, 1,800 and 5,800, respectively, shares of
Class A common stock with an option price of $32.00 that were granted on January
12, 1989, and 25,000 shares of Class A common stock at an option price of $35.56
granted on March 1, 1989. The Company does not presently intend to issue
additional stock options.

    The Company applies AICPA Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,

    The Company does not provide for deferred taxes on certain unremitted
foreign earnings. In 1997,management determined, and continues to conclude in
1998, that the earnings of NMHG's foreign subsidiaries have been and will be
indefinitely reinvested in the Company's foreign operations and, therefore, a
reserve for unremitted foreign earnings is no longer required. Certain 1997
events, including the release of certain covenant restrictions on the NMHG
Facility, an improvement in NMHG's domestic cash flow and the identification of
specific capital investment projects to be undertaken by the foreign operations,
allowed management to make these determinations. As a result, an income tax
benefit of $15.3 million was recognized in 1997 relating to the reversal of
previously provided deferred taxes on NMHG's unremitted foreign earnings. As of
December 31, 1998, the unremitted earnings of the Company's foreign
subsidiaries are $163.4 million. It is impracticable to determine the amount of
unrecognized deferred taxes with respect to these earnings; however, foreign tax
credits would be available to reduce U.S. income taxes in the event of a
distribution.
    A detailed summary of the total deferred tax assets and liabilities in the
Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31 resulting from differences
in the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities follows:

</TABLE>


    The Company periodically reviews the need for a valuation allowance against
certain deferred tax assets and recognizes these assets to the extent that
realization is more likely than not. Based on a review of earnings history and
trends, forecasted earnings and expiration of carryforwards, the Company
provided a valuation allowance of $5.9 million in 1997, primarily against
foreign net operating loss carryforwards for which utilization is uncertain. In
1998, this valuation allowance was increased to $6.7 million. At December 31,
1998, the Company had $2.0 million of net operating loss carryforwards that
expire, if unused, in years 1999 through 2003, and $5.0 million that are not
subject to expiration.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NACCO Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Per
Share, Unit and Percentage Data)

    The tax returns of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries are being
examined by various taxing authorities. The Company has not been informed of any
material assessment resulting from these examinations and will vigorously
contest any material assessment. Management believes that any potential
adjustment would not materially affect the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.

NOTE 18-RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
   DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS: The Company maintains various defined benefit pension
plans covering most of its employees. These plans provide benefits based on
years of service and average compensation during certain periods. The Company's
policy is to make contributions to fund these plans within the range allowed by
the applicable regulations. Plan assets consist primarily of publicly traded
stocks, investment contracts, and government and corporate bonds.
    As of December 31, 1996, pension benefits were frozen for employees covered
under NMHG's and HB-PS' United States plans, except for those NMHG employees
participating in collective bargaining agreements. As a result, a curtailment
gain of $1.3 million and a special termination charge of $1.6 million were
recognized in 1996. In addition, the net periodic pension expense in 1998 and
1997 was, and the periodic pension expense in future periods will be,
significantly reduced. As a result of these changes, in the United States only
NACoal employees and certain NMHG employees covered under collective bargaining
agreements will earn retirement benefits under defined benefit pension plans.
Other employees of the Company, including NMHG and HB-PS employees whose
pension benefits were frozen as of December 31, 1996, will receive retirement
benefits under defined contribution retirement plans, as described below.
    Set forth here is a detail of the net periodic pension expense and the
assumptions used in accounting for the United States and the United Kingdom
defined benefit plans for the years ended December 31. Assumptions used in
accounting for the United Kingdom plans changed significantly in 1998 as
compared with 1997 and 1996, primarily due to changes in the economic climate in
the United Kingdom.

   DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS: NACCO and its subsidiaries have defined 
   contribution (401(k)) plans for substantially all employees. For NACCO and 
those subsidiaries, the company matches employee contributions based on plan
provisions. In addition, NACCO and certain other subsidiaries have defined
contribution retirement plans whereby the company's contribution to participants
is determined annually based on a formula that includes the effect of actual
compared to targeted operating results and the age and compensation of the
participants. Total costs, including Company contributions, for these plans were
$17.8 million, $15.2 million and $8.9 million in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

NOTE 19-BUSINESS SEGMENTS
    In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." This Statement requires companies to
identify segments consistent with the manner in which management makes decisions
about allocating resources to segments and measuring their performance. It also
requires disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major
customers. See Note 1 for a discussion of the Company's operating segments and
product lines. NACCO's non-operating segment, NACCO and Other, includes the
accounts of the parent company and Bellaire.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Stockholders of NACCO Industries, Inc.:

    We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets of NACCO
 Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
 related Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income,
 Stockholders' Equity and Cash Flows for each of the three years in the period
 ended December 31, 1998. These financial statements are the responsibility of
 the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
 financial statements based on our audits.
    We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
 standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
 reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
 material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
 supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
 also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
 estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
 statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
 for our opinion.
    In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
 in all material respects, the financial position of NACCO Industries, Inc. and
 Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their
 operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
 December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
NACCO Materials Handling Group, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NACCO Materials
Handling Group, Inc. (a Delaware corporation and an indirect majority-owned
subsidiary of NACCO Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries
as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related consolidated statements of
income and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the
years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of NACCO Materials Handling Group,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

              NACCO MATERIALS HANDLING GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997



1.  ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of NACCO Materials Handling
Group, Inc. and subsidiaries include the accounts of NACCO Materials Handling
Group, Inc. and subsidiaries and its parent Hyster-Yale Materials Handling,
Inc., a holding company (collectively, the Company, a Delaware Corporation).
Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, Inc. is a 98% owned subsidiary of NACCO
Industries, Inc. (NACCO), a Delaware corporation. NACCO Materials Handling
Group, Inc. and subsidiaries is the primary operating business.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hyster-Yale
Materials Handling, Inc. and NACCO Materials Handling Group, Inc. and its
majority-owned domestic and international manufacturing and retail subsidiaries
except for Hyster Brasil, Ltd., a Brazilian subsidiary manufacturer and
retailer. Income from this Brazilian subsidiary is recognized when cash is
received in the form of a dividend. Investments in Sumitomo Yale Company, Ltd.
(S-Y), a 50% owned joint venture, and NMHG Financial Services, Inc., a 20% owned
joint venture, are accounted for by the equity method. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions among the consolidated companies are
eliminated in consolidation.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and
the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and highly liquid investments
with maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost has been determined
under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for domestic wholesale and all retail
inventories and under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method with respect to all
other inventories. Costs for inventory valuation include labor, material and
manufacturing overhead.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation, including
amortization of equipment acquired under capital leases, is computed using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful service lives for purposes of
financial reporting. For tax purposes, an accelerated method is generally used.
Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

                                      -2-

SELF-INSURANCE

The Company is generally self-insured for product liability, medical and
worker's compensation claims. For product liability, catastrophic coverage is
retained for potentially significant individual claims. Estimated provisions for
claims under self-insurance programs, including an amount for incurred but not
reported, are recorded and revised annually based upon historical experience and
management judgement. Changes in assumptions for matters such as legal actions,
medical costs and actual experience could cause estimates to change in the near
term.

GOODWILL

Goodwill, the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net
assets acquired, relates primarily to the 1989 acquisition of Hyster Company and
to the 1996 through 1998 acquisitions of Italian operations and retail
dealerships. Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years.
Accumulated amortization was $106.1 million and $94.4 million at December 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively. Management regularly evaluates its accounting for
goodwill considering such factors as historical and future profitability and
believes that the asset is realizable and the amortization period is
appropriate.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenues are recognized when customer orders are completed and shipped.
Anticipated cost of future warranty repairs are accrued as product is shipped.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT COSTS

Expenditures associated with the development of new products and improvements to
existing products are expensed as incurred. These costs amounted to $38.6
million and $32.5 million in 1998 and 1997, respectively.

ADVERTISING COSTS

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $8.8 million and $8.0
million in 1998 and 1997, respectively.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at
the fiscal year-end exchange rate. The related translation adjustments are
recorded as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Revenues and expenses
are translated using average exchange rates prevailing during the year.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial instruments held by the Company include cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, accounts payable, revolving credit agreements, long-term
debt, interest rate swap agreements and foreign currency forward contracts. The
fair values of these financial instruments have been determined using quoted
market sources and management estimates. The Company does not hold or issue
financial instruments or derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

The Company operates internationally and enters into transactions denominated in
foreign currencies. As a result, the Company is subject to the transaction
exposures that arise from exchange rate movements between the dates foreign
currency transactions are recorded and the dates they are consummated. The
Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to partially reduce risks
related to transactions denominated in foreign currencies.
<PAGE>   9
                                      -3-

Generally, gains and losses from changes in the market value of these contracts
are recognized in cost of sales and offset the foreign exchange gains and losses
on the underlying transaction. Gains and losses on contracts designated as
hedges of firm commitments denominated in foreign currencies are included in the
measurement of the related transaction.

In addition, the Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements for
portions of its floating rate revolving credit agreement and its domestic asset
securitization program. These interest rate swap agreements allow the Company to
enter into long-term financing arrangements that have performance-based floating
rates of interest, and then exchange them for fixed rates of interest. Variable
rates for both the floating rate financing and the interest rate swap agreements
are predominantly linked to three-month LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate).
This common index promotes effectiveness of the interest rate swap agreements as
a hedging instrument.

Amounts to be paid or received under the interest rate swap agreements are
accrued as interest rates change and are recognized over the life of the swap
agreements as an adjustment to Interest expense or Other, net expense. Changes
in the market value of the interest rate swap agreements are not recognized in
net income.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the prior period consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation.

2.  ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED:

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board Issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. It
requires companies to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet as assets
and liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes
in the values of those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use
of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. This statement
is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company will
adopt this statement on January 1, 2000 and is in the process of determining the
effect the adoption will have on its financial statements.

In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA)
issued Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use," which is effective for the
Company as of January 1, 1999. This SOP requires capitalization on a prospective
basis of certain development costs of software to be used internally.

In April 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up
Activities," which is effective for the Company as of January 1, 1999. This SOP
requires start-up and organization costs to be expensed as incurred and also
requires previously deferred start-up costs to be recognized as a cumulative
effect adjustment in the statement of income upon adoption.

These SOPs, which the Company plans to adopt as of January 1, 1999, are not
expected to have material effect on the Company's financial position or results
of operations.

3.  NATURE OF OPERATIONS:

The Company designs, manufactures and markets material handling machinery and
equipment. Its product offerings cover all categories of forklift trucks, with
electric rider and internal combustion engine (ICE) forklift trucks being the
major product lines. The Company also derives significant revenue from the sale
of service parts for its own and competitors' forklift trucks.

The Company has manufacturing operations in the United States, Europe, China and
Mexico. Products are differentiated between the Hyster(R) and Yale(R) brands and
each brand is distributed worldwide through Company-owned and independent dealer
networks. Both brands are also sold directly to certain national accounts
customers.

In 1998, the Company launched an initiative to enter into the retail
distribution of its forklift products. As a result of this plan, the Company
acquired nine retail dealerships from its existing dealer network in 1998,
adding to the one dealership acquired in 1997.

The Company's market position is strongest in North America. It also has
significant presence in Europe although its competitive position varies from
country to country. The Company's market share in Asia-Pacific is relatively
low.

The forklift truck industry is highly competitive and the Company has
established alliances with a limited number of suppliers to secure sources of
competitively priced materials and components. If the supply of key components
or materials were disrupted, or if major price increases were imposed that could
not be passed on to end customers, there could be an adverse impact on the
Company's operating results.

4.  RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES:

In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company approved and began implementation of
a restructuring plan, involving primarily the consolidation of marketing
services and the relocation of engineering operations close to manufacturing
plants. As such, the Company recognized an accrual for severance payments to be
made to certain Company employees and for other expenditures related to the
restructuring. The accrual is included in other current liabilities and the
change to the accrual for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 is as
follows:

6.  ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE:

In 1997 the Company entered into an agreement to sell all of its domestic
accounts receivable, on a revolving basis, to Lift Truck Funding Company, LLC
("LTF"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. LTF was formed prior to the
execution of this agreement for the purpose of buying and selling accounts
receivable and is designated to be bankruptcy remote.

Also in 1997, the Company and LTF entered into an agreement with a financial
institution whereby LTF can sell, on a revolving basis, an undivided percentage
ownership interest in certain eligible accounts receivable, as defined, up to a
maximum of $60.0 million. This two-step transaction is accounted for as a sale
of receivables in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities".
Accordingly, the Company's consolidated balance sheets reflect the portion of
receivables transferred to the financial institution as a reduction in accounts
receivable, net.

In addition to the domestic program discussed above, the Company also has
agreements with financial institutions outside of the United States which allow
for the sale, without recourse, of undivided interests in revolving pools of its
foreign trade accounts receivable. The maximum allowable amount of foreign trade
receivables to be sold was $72.8 million and $72.9 million at December 31, 1998
and 1997, respectively.

The Company continues to service the receivables and maintains an allowance for
doubtful accounts based upon the expected collectibility of all the Company's
accounts receivable, including the portion of receivables sold. The servicing
liability incurred in connection with these transactions is not material.

Gross proceeds of $763.7 million and $543.5 million were received during 1998
and 1997, respectively and the balance of accounts receivable sold at December
31, 1998 and 1997 was $67.2 million and $33.5 million, respectively, under all
agreements. In the Consolidated Statements of Income the discount and any other
transaction gains and losses are included in other, net. The net effect of the
sale of receivables during 1998 and 1997 was not material to the operating
results of the Company.

13. REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENTS AND LONG-TERM DEBT:

The Company has entered into a long-term revolving credit agreement (the Credit
Agreement) with a group of banks which provides the Company with an unsecured
$350 million revolving line of credit. Borrowing capacity under this Credit
Agreement is reduced by the amount of trade accounts receivable sold under the
Company's domestic accounts receivable sales agreement (Note 6). The Credit
Agreement expires in the year 2002 and has annual extension options. It is the
Company's intention to either exercise the annual extension options or replace
outstanding borrowings with similar financing vehicles at term. As such,
borrowings under the Credit Agreement of $155 million and $150 million at
December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, have been classified as long-term
debt. The Company had $157.3 million and $181.4 million available under the
Credit Agreement as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.



<PAGE>   15
                                      -9-


A facility fee, which is based upon the total $350 million commitment of the
Credit Agreement, is currently .10% per annum. The Credit Agreement bears
interest under a variety of borrowing options with premiums on each option
subject to reductions based on favorable performance. The weighted average
interest rate, including interest rate swaps, at December 31, 1998 and 1997 was
6.78% and 7.03%, respectively.

The Credit Agreement contains covenants related to minimum net worth, debt to
capitalization and debt of subsidiaries. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the
Company was in compliance with all the covenants in the Credit Agreement.

In addition to the Credit Agreement discussed above, the Company has
arrangements with lenders that allow for borrowings up to $55.0 million on an
uncommitted basis at current market rates. There were $19.6 million and no
borrowings outstanding under these arrangements at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, and these borrowings are classified as long-term debt. The
weighted average interest rate on these borrowings at December 31, 1998,
including interest rate swaps, was 6.78%.

As further discussed in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company has entered into unsecured interest rate swap agreements. The interest
rate swap agreements mature at varying lengths from twelve months to seven years
and effectively change the majority of the Company's floating interest rate
exposure on the Credit Agreement to fixed rates. The Company evaluates its
exposure to floating rate debt on an ongoing basis.

Long-term debt, exclusive of current maturities, consists of the following:

</TABLE>

To the extent allowed under the restrictive covenants of the Credit Agreement,
foreign subsidiaries had credit lines at December 31, 1998 and 1997 with an
unused amount of $38.7 million and $27.6 million, respectively. Borrowings under
these credit lines are classified as short-term and amounted to $0 and $2.2
million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. These credit lines are
denominated in various currencies and the weighted average interest rate at
December 31, 1998 and 1997 on outstanding balances was 8.6% and 8.9% at December
31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

14.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

INTEREST RATE DERIVATIVES

The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements with major commercial
banks for which the risk of credit loss from nonperformance by the banks is
considered minimal. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had $160
million notional principal amount of interest rate swaps with an average
effective rate of 7.11% for each year. The carrying amount of the interest rate
swaps is $0 and the fair value was $7.0 million and $6.1 million as of December
31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, representing the amount the Company would have
to pay to terminate the contracts.



<PAGE>   16
                                      -10-


FOREIGN CURRENCY DERIVATIVES

The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts with major financial
institutions for which the risk of credit loss from nonperformance by these
institutions is considered minimal. These contracts hedge primarily firm
commitments and, to a lesser degree, anticipated transactions relating to cash
flows associated with sales and purchases denominated in foreign currencies. The
Company enters into foreign exchange contracts in a variety of foreign
currencies with maturities not exceeding one year.

At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had $72.4 million and $71.3 million
contract value of foreign exchange forward contracts, respectively. The fair
market value of these forward contracts is a gain (loss) of $4.8 million and
($2.4) million, and their net deferred hedging loss is $0.3 million and $0.1
million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The eventual gains or
losses arising from such contracts, depending on market rates, will be
recognized in future earnings concurrent with the underlying hedged revenues or
costs.

15.  INCOME TAXES:

The Company is included in the consolidated federal income tax return of NACCO.
The Company and NACCO are parties to an income tax sharing agreement providing
for the allocation of federal income tax liabilities. Under this arrangement,
the Company will pay to NACCO an amount equal to the income taxes that would be
payable by the Company if it were a corporation filing a separate return.
Therefore, the currently payable federal portion of the provision for income
taxes is payable to NACCO. The Company files separate state income tax returns.

The components of income before income taxes and provision for income taxes for
the years ended December 31 are as follows:

In the fourth quarter of 1997, management determined that the earnings of the
Company's foreign subsidiaries have been and will be indefinitely reinvested in
the Company's foreign operations and, therefore, concluded that the tax accrual
for unremitted foreign earnings was no longer required. Certain 1997 events,
including the release of certain covenant restrictions on the Company's debt
facility, an improvement in the Company's domestic cash flow and the
identification of specific capital investment projects to be undertaken by the
foreign operations allowed management to make this determination. As a result,
an income tax benefit of $17.4 million was recognized in 1997 of which $2.1
million represents the reversal of deferred taxes provided in the first three
quarters of 1997 and $15.3 million relating to the reversal of previously
provided deferred taxes on the Company's unremitted foreign earnings.

The unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries are $148 million and $123
million as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Since these earnings
have been or are expected to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations,
no provision has been made for U.S. income taxes. It is impracticable to
determine the amount of unrecognized deferred taxes with respect to these
earnings; however, foreign tax credits would be available to reduce U.S. income
taxes in the event of a distribution.

The Company periodically reviews the need for a valuation allowance against
certain deferred tax assets and recognizes these assets to the extent that
realization of these assets is more likely than not. Based on a review of
earnings history and trends, forecasted earnings and expiration of
carryforwards, the Company in 1997 provided a valuation allowance against
certain foreign net operating loss carryforwards and deferred tax assets for
which utilization is uncertain. No significant changes to this valuation
allowance were necessary in 1998. The valuation allowance is $6.7 million and
$5.9 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. At December 31, 1998,
the Company has $0.9 million of foreign net operating loss carryforwards which
will expire, if unused, in years 1999 through 2002, and $4.9 million which are
not subject to expiration.

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are currently under examination by
various taxing authorities. The Company has not been informed of any material
assessment resulting from these examinations. Management believes that any
potential adjustment would not materially affect future earnings.

16.  PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS:

The Company maintains a variety of pension plans covering a majority of its
employees. A portion of the employees are participants in the defined benefit
plans discussed below. Most of the remaining employees participate in the profit
sharing portion of the Company's defined contribution plan also described below.
In addition, all eligible employees are included in the 401(k) portion of the
defined contribution plan. Total expense for those defined contribution plans
was $10.7 million and $8.9 million for the years 1998 and 1997, respectively.

The Company participates in the combined defined benefit plan of NACCO for
certain employee groups. The Company also maintains a defined benefit plan for
those employees that are covered under collective bargaining agreements. Each
defined benefit plan has a formula that is used to determine benefits upon
retirement. Most formulas take into account age, compensation, and success of
the Company in meeting certain goals, although certain hourly employees'
formulas are based primarily on years of service. The Company's current funding
policy is to contribute annually the minimum contribution calculated by the
independent actuaries. Contributions are intended to provide not only for
benefits attributed to service to date but also for those expected to be earned
in the future.

The Company also maintains health care and life insurance plans (other benefit
plans) which provide benefits to eligible retired employees. The Company funds
these benefits on a "pay as you go" basis, with the retirees paying a portion of
the costs.

The assumed health care cost trend rate for measuring the postretirement benefit
cost was 7.0% in 1998 and 7.5% in 1997, gradually reducing to 5.25% in years
2003 and after. The weighted average discount rate used to determine the benefit
obligation was 7.0% in 1998 and 7.5% in 1997. If the assumed health care trend
rate were increased or decreased by one percentage point, the effect would be to
increase (decrease) the Accumulated Postretirement Benefit Obligation by $0.2
million and $(0.2) million, respectively.

The components of periodic pension cost and actuarial assumptions for the
Company's principal defined benefit plans and other benefit plans for the years
ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:

The Company maintains a defined contribution retirement plan for U.S. employees
which includes a profit sharing portion and a 401(k) portion. Contributions to
the profit sharing plan are based on a formula which takes into account age,
compensation, and success of the Company in meeting certain goals. Contributions
vest over a five-year period. Under the 401(k) portion, eligible employees may
contribute up to 17% of their compensation and the Company matches an amount
equal to 66-2/3% of the participants' initial 3% before tax contribution.
Participants are at all times fully vested in their contributions and those made
by the Company.

17.  LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN:

The Company has a Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan for officers and key
management employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Awards under this plan
represent book value appreciation units and entitle the recipient, subject to
vesting and other restrictions, to receive cash equal to the difference between
the base period price for the units and the book value price as of the quarter
date coincident to or immediately preceding the date of disbursement. Awards
vest and are payable ten years from the date of grant or earlier under certain
conditions. As of December 31, 1998, 1.8 million units have been awarded to key
employees and officers. The amount charged to expense was $7.3 million and $3.4
million in 1998 and 1997, respectively. The total amount accrued at December 31,
1998 and 1997 for these awards was $15.9 million and $10.2 million,
respectively, and was recorded as a long-term liability.

18.  LEASES:

The Company leases certain office, manufacturing, warehouse distribution
facilities, and machinery and equipment under noncancelable leases which expire
at various dates through 2007. Future minimum annual lease payments under these
lease obligations as of December 31, 1998 are as follows:

Aggregate rental expense for operating leases included in the consolidated
statements of income is $9.3 million and $8.8 million in 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

19.  CONTINGENCIES:

The Company is subject to recourse or repurchase obligations under various
financing arrangements for certain independently owned retail dealerships. Also,
the Company guarantees certain dealer loans. Total amounts subject to recourse,
guarantee or repurchase obligation at December 31, 1998 and 1997 were $196.0
million and $156.9 million, respectively. When the Company is the guarantor of
the principal amount financed, a security interest is usually maintained in
assets of the parties for whom the Company is guaranteeing debt. Losses
anticipated under the terms of the recourse or repurchase obligations have been
provided for and are not significant.

The Company is the defendant in various product liability and other legal
proceedings incidental to its business. The majority of this litigation involves
product liability claims. The Company has recorded a reserve for potential
product liability losses at December 31, 1998 and 1997 of $58.0 million and
$52.7 million, respectively, of which $8.0 million is estimated to be payable in
1999. While the resolution of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty,
management believes that the reserves are adequate and no material adverse
effect upon the financial position or results of operations of the Company will
result from such legal actions.

In 1998, the Company settled two long-outstanding claims against former Yale
dealers of approximately $4.7 million. This was recognized as income in 1998 and
reflected as other, net in the consolidated statements of income and
comprehensive income.

20.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT:

The Company completed the acquisition of a domestic retail dealership subsequent
to December 31,1998 for approximately $24.8 million. The acquisition will be
accounted for as a purchase.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS





To the Board of Directors of
The North American Coal Corporation and Subsidiaries:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The North
American Coal Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and
the related consolidated statements of income, stockholder's equity, and cash
flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of The North American Coal
Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

THE NORTH AMERICAN COAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts in thousands)

December 31, 1998 and 1997

NOTE A--ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The North American Coal Corporation ("Company") is a wholly owned subsidiary of
NACCO Industries, Inc. ("Parent Company"). The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, The Coteau
Properties Company ("Coteau"), The Falkirk Mining Company ("Falkirk"), The
Sabine Mining Company ("Sabine"), and North American Coal Royalty Company, its
division San Miguel Lignite Mine, ("San Miguel"), and its joint venture Red
River Mining Company, ("Red River Mining"). Intercompany accounts have been
eliminated. The Company is principally engaged in lignite mining through the
operation of surface mines in North Dakota, Texas and Louisiana. The Company
also operates a dragline at a limestone quarry in Florida.

Three of the Company's consolidated coal mining subsidiaries were organized to
assume sales agreements with public utilities. All of the coal of these
subsidiaries is sold to these public utilities pursuant to long-term contracts
with terms up to 23 years and with extensions at the public utilities' option.
The sales prices provided by such contracts are based on cost, plus a profit per
ton. Since each mining subsidiary has a contract to provide coal to its
customer, a significant portion of their revenue is derived from a single
source. The financial position of the mining subsidiary and the Company could be
materially impacted if the relationship with any of the customers was terminated
or altered.

On April 1, 1998, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement to mine
lignite in Mississippi. Operations are scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter
of 2000.

On January 22, 1997, the Company signed a contract to mine lignite at a
specified fixed price per ton over the next ten years for San Miguel Electric
Cooperative. Operations began on July 1, 1997 as scheduled.

NOTE B--ACCOUNTING POLICIES

USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and
highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less.

INVENTORIES: Supply inventories are stated at average cost. Coal inventories are
stated at the lower of cost or market.

profit during the defined development period of the mines. Production costs
incurred during the development period in excess of the established selling
price, as set forth in the Agreements, were deferred and are being recovered as
a cost of coal tonnage sold after the development period. Recoveries of these
costs amounted to approximately $891,000 in 1998 and 1997, and are included in
net sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

DEPRECIATION, DEPLETION AND AMORTIZATION: Depreciation, depletion and
amortization are provided in amounts sufficient to amortize the cost of related
assets (including assets recorded under capitalized lease obligations) over
their estimated range of useful lives and are calculated by either the
straight-line method or the units-of-production method based on estimated
recoverable tonnage.

RECLAMATION COSTS: Under certain federal and state regulations, the Company's
subsidiaries are required to reclaim land disturbed as a result of mining.
Reclamation of disturbed land is a continuous process throughout the term of the
Agreements. Current reclamation costs are being recovered as a cost of coal
tonnage sold. Costs to complete reclamation after mining has been completed are
reimbursed under the Agreements.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: The fair values of
financial instruments have been determined through information obtained from
quoted market sources and management estimates. The Company does not hold or
issue financial instruments or derivative financial instruments for trading
purposes. For a portion of the Company's variable-rate revolving credit
agreement, the Company has interest rate swap agreements with a remaining terms
of five and ten years. The terms of the interest rate swap agreements require
the Company to receive a variable interest rate and pay a fixed interest rate,
thereby reducing the Company's exposure to changes in the market rate of
interest. The differential between the floating interest rate and the fixed
interest rate which is to be paid or received is recognized in interest expense
as the floating interest rate changes over the life of the agreement.

PRIOR YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: Certain reclassifications have been made to the
1997 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 1998 presentation.

NOTE E--ADVANCES FROM CUSTOMERS

Advances from customers represent amounts advanced to Coteau and Falkirk from
public utilities to provide working capital and develop and operate the mines.
These advances are secured by all owned assets and assignment of all rights
under the Agreements of Coteau and Falkirk. These advances are without recourse
to the Company and the Parent Company and the majority of the advances are non
interest-bearing. No repayment schedule has been established for the Falkirk
advances due to the funding agreement with its customers.

Estimated maturities for Coteau for the next five years, including current
maturities, which are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying
balance sheets, are as follows:

NOTE F--NOTES PAYABLE--continued

The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements which allow the Company to
enter into long-term credit arrangements that have performance based, floating
rates of interest and then swap them for fixed rates as opposed to entering into
higher cost fixed-rate credit arrangements. These agreements are with major
commercial banks; therefore, the risk of credit loss from nonperformance by the
banks is minimal. The Company evaluates its exposure to floating rate debt on an
ongoing basis. The following table summarizes the notional amount and related
average rate on the interest rate swap agreements outstanding at December 31:

Commitment fees paid to banks were approximately $22,000 and $17,000 in 1998 and
1997, respectively, and are included in interest expense in the accompanying

NOTE G--REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT

Terms of the Company's revolving credit agreement are summarized as follows:

   Amount of revolving credit agreement                        $50,000,000
   Amount available at December 31, 1998                       $47,239,000

   Stated interest rate                                     LIBOR + .4375%
   Commitment and facility fee                              .20% per annum
   Expiration date (with annual renewal option)         September 27, 2002

At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the interest rate was 6.13% and 6.44%,
respectively.

The Company's revolving credit agreement includes certain financial covenants.
The Company was in compliance with such covenants at December 31, 1998. The note
payable with the Parent Company reduces the availability of the borrowings of
the credit agreement.


NOTE H--POSTRETIREMENT PLANS

The Company and its affiliates, representing the mining operations of the Parent
Company, sponsor defined benefit pension plans which cover substantially all
salaried employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Benefits under the plans
are based on years of service and average compensation during certain periods.
The Company's funding policy is to contribute within the range allowed by the
applicable regulations. Plan assets are primarily publicly listed stocks and
U.S. bonds.

The Company and its subsidiaries participate in a defined contribution plan
sponsored by the Company which covers substantially all salaried employees. The
plan provides for employee contributions to be matched, by the respective
company, up to a limit of 5% of the employee's salary. The Company recognized an
expense and a cash contribution of $3,027,000 and $2,901,000 in 1998 and 1997,
respectively, relating to the plan.

NOTE I--OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

The expected cost of retirement benefits other than pensions is charged to
expense during the years that the employees render service. Under the provisions
of the Agreements of three subsidiaries, costs will be recovered as a cost of
coal tonnage sold. Because the obligation for retirement benefits other than
pension is not material to the Company's results of operations and financial
condition, the detailed disclosures have not been presented.

Coteau and Sabine established Voluntary Employees' Beneficiary Association
(VEBA) trusts in 1993 to provide for such future retirement benefits. Coteau and
Sabine made cash contributions to the VEBA trusts of approximately $299,000 and
$479,000 in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Contributions made to an IRS approved
VEBA trust are irrevocable and must be used for employee benefits.

NOTE J--COMMITMENTS

Certain mining equipment leased by Coteau, Falkirk, and Sabine is capitalized
for financial statement purposes. Under the provisions of the Agreements, the
customer is required to pay, as part of the cost of coal purchased, an amount
equal to the annual lease payments. Interest expense and amortization in excess
of annual lease payments are deferred and are recognized in years when annual
lease payments exceed interest expense and amortization.

Interest paid on notes and capitalized lease obligations amounted to
approximately $13,606,000 and $14,904,000 in 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Assets recorded under capitalized lease obligations are included with property,
plant and equipment and consist of the following:

NOTE K--INCOME TAXES

The Company and its subsidiaries are included in the consolidated federal income
tax return filed by the Parent Company. The Company and each of its subsidiaries
entered into a tax-sharing agreement with the Parent Company under which federal
income taxes are computed by the Company and each of its subsidiaries on a
separate return basis. The current portion of such tax is paid to the Parent
Company. During 1998 and 1997, the federal and state income taxes paid by the
Company were approximately $6,833,000 and $8,064,000, respectively.

The Company's effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate
primarily due to state income taxes and percentage depletion.

Provision (benefit) for income taxes consists of the following:

NOTE L--FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under the
revolving credit agreement approximate fair value. The fair value of notes
receivable and payable is estimated based on the discounted value of the future
cash flows using borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank
loans with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of the interest rate
swap agreement is based on third party quotes. The fair value compared to the
carrying value is summarized as follows:
