alternatives, including private placements and resale shelf registration statements, would not provide the same level of liquidity. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">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. Under the terms of the Company&#146;s restated certificate of incorporation (&#147;Certificate of Incorporation&#148;) and amended and restated stockholders&#146;
agreement, dated September&nbsp;29, 2017 (as amended from time to time, the &#147;Stockholders&#146; Agreement&#148;), shares of Class&nbsp;B common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company (&#147;Class&nbsp;B Common&#148;) are not generally
transferable. Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders&#146; Agreement, to which the selling stockholders listed in the Registration Statement (the &#147;Selling Stockholders&#148;) are a party, and the Company&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation,
however, qualifying holders of Class&nbsp;B Common may transfer shares of Class&nbsp;B Common to the Selling Stockholders in exchange for shares of Class&nbsp;A common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company (&#147;Class&nbsp;A
Common&#148;), on a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">share-for-share</FONT></FONT> basis. In order to qualify for such transfers, the holder must be a party to the Stockholders&#146; Agreement and must be permitted
to transfer shares of Class&nbsp;B Common to the Selling Stockholders under the Company&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation and the Stockholders&#146; Agreement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The exchanges of Class&nbsp;A Common, which is publicly traded, for Class&nbsp;B Common, which is not publicly traded, as contemplated by the
Registration Statement (the&nbsp;&#147;proposed transactions&#148;), are designed to provide liquidity to the qualifying holders of Class&nbsp;B Common. As described in the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, the Selling Stockholders
are offering to exchange shares of Class&nbsp;A Common with qualifying holders of Class&nbsp;B Common. Each exchange will result in the Selling Stockholders transferring one share of Class&nbsp;A Common for each share of Class&nbsp;B Common
transferred to the Selling Stockholders. Persons who receive shares of Class&nbsp;A Common from the Selling Stockholders pursuant to an effective registration statement may then resell those shares of Class&nbsp;A Common in brokerage transactions on
the New York Stock Exchange in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 (&#147;Securities Act&#148;), and the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">six-month</FONT> holding period requirement of Rule 144 will not apply. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As a threshold matter, the Company acknowledges that Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-4</FONT> is generally available for exchange
offers of shares to be issued by the registrant and is available for resale transactions only in limited circumstances. The Company&#146;s use of Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-4</FONT> to register the proposed transactions, however, is
consistent with nearly two decades of practice that was initially based on conversations with the Staff with respect to similar transactions and registration statements filed by NACCO. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On July&nbsp;13, 2001, NACCO filed a Registration Statement on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-3</FONT> (Registration <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">No.&nbsp;333-65134)</FONT> (the&nbsp;&#147;NACCO <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-3&#148;).</FONT> Similar to the Company&#146;s Registration Statement, the stockholders named in the NACCO
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-3</FONT> prospectus were offering to transfer, from time to time, shares of Class&nbsp;A Common for shares of Class&nbsp;B Common. Following conversations with the Staff in late 2001 regarding the use of Form <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-3</FONT> to register the proposed transactions, NACCO filed a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Pre-Effective</FONT> Amendment to Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-3</FONT> filed on Form <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-4</FONT> on November&nbsp;15, 2001, which Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-4</FONT> was declared effective on or prior to November&nbsp;20, 2001. Since 2001, NACCO has registered similar transactions regarding the
transfer of Class&nbsp;A Common in exchange for Class&nbsp;B Common via registration statements on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-4</FONT> or post-effective amendments thereto. In addition, Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, Inc. <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(&#147;Hyster-Yale&#148;)</FONT> and Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company (&#147;HBBHC&#148;), which were spun off from NACCO in 2012 and 2017, respectively, have each used registration statements on Form <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-4,</FONT> or post-effective amendments thereto, to register similar transactions after their <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">spin-off</FONT> dates. Accordingly, the use of Form
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-4</FONT> to register the proposed transactions, which is based on prior conversations with the Staff and consistent with nearly two decades of prior practice at NACCO, eight years at Hyster-Yale and two years at
HBBHC, provides an important source of liquidity for the eligible holders. Furthermore, the stockholders who participate in these types of transactions with respect to NACCO, Hyster-Yale and HBBHC, have relied on the Staff&#146;s prior treatment

Subsequent Registration of Class&nbsp;A Common Would Reduce Liquidity for Qualifying Holders of Class&nbsp;B Common. </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As discussed
above, the proposed transactions are designed to provide liquidity to the qualifying holders of Class&nbsp;B Common. The Company believes that reliance on exemptions from registration, <I>e.g.</I>,
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;Section&nbsp;4(a)(1-1/2)&#148;</FONT> or Section&nbsp;4(a)(7) of the Securities Act, even if available to certain parties to the Stockholders&#146; Agreement, would significantly reduce the willingness of such
parties to engage in the proposed transactions. As a threshold matter, the exemption provided by Section&nbsp;4(a)(7) is not available to some of the qualified holders, as they are not &#147;accredited investors&#148; (as defined in Rule 501(a)). In
addition, absent a clear statutory safe harbor, the qualifying holders eligible to participate in the proposed transactions may be unwilling to rely on other possible private resale alternatives (including the
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;Section&nbsp;4(a)(1-1/2)&#148;</FONT> alternative) given the uncertainty surrounding such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-statutory</FONT> alternatives. Most importantly, however, the Company believes that
the restrictions on resale under Rule 144, specifically the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">six-month</FONT> holding period requirement of Rule 144, would significantly reduce the willingness of such holders to exchange their Class&nbsp;B Common
for Class&nbsp;A Common, resulting in reduced liquidity for such holders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The registration of the resale of Class&nbsp;A Common received
by participating holders in exchange offers conducted pursuant to an available registration exemption is not a practical option given the nature of the proposed transactions given the amount of signatories to the Stockholders&#146; Agreement as
noted above. Additionally, the Selling Stockholders may offer to exchange all, a portion or none of the shares of Class&nbsp;A Common in the proposed transactions from time to time in varying amounts. Based on historical practice at NACCO,
Hyster-Yale and HBBC, the timing and amount of exchange transactions pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-4</FONT> in a given year, if any, occur in varying amounts and at various times depending
on the particular liquidity needs of the Class&nbsp;B Common holders and the willingness of the particular selling stockholders to exchange shares of Class&nbsp;A Common. In particular, the amount of Class&nbsp;A Common exchanged in a given year
pursuant to the Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-4</FONT> registration statements, if any, is typically a very small fraction of the total amount of Class&nbsp;A Common registered. If multiple transactions with Class&nbsp;B Common holders
occur in a given year, the Company could be asked to file multiple resale registration statements each year for participating Class&nbsp;B Common holders. As a result, in a given year the cost incurred in preparing and filing one or more resale
registration statements to register the resale of limited amounts of Class&nbsp;A Common would likely be economically prohibitive for the Company. More importantly, the time incurred in preparing and filing such resale registration statements
following exchanges pursuant to an available exemption would delay the ultimate resale of the Class&nbsp;A Common by the participating holders. The Company believes that the use of such resale registration statements would be cost prohibitive for
the Company and would reduce the incentive for current eligible holders of Class&nbsp;B Common to participate in exchange transactions, resulting in a loss of overall liquidity for such holders. </P>

choice of forum provisions in other companies&#146; charters and bylaws has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that, in connection with claims arising under federal

with us or our directors, officers, or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, and other employees. Alternatively, if a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in our amended and
restated bylaws to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition. </P>
