Each exchange will result in one or more of the selling stockholders transferring one share of Class A common stock for each share of Class B common stock transferred to the selling stockholder or selling stockholders. We will not receive any proceeds from these transactions.

RISK FACTORS

     Prospective investors in the shares of Class A common stock offered hereby should consider carefully the following risk factors as well as the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, which is incorporated into this prospectus by reference, in addition to the other information contained in this prospectus. This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause a material difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed below, as well as those discussed elsewhere in this prospectus and the documents incorporated into this prospectus by reference.

Risks Related to This Offering

     The voting power of holders of Class B common stock who transfer their shares to the selling stockholders and receive shares of Class A common stock will diminish.

     Holders of Class B common stock have ten votes per share of Class B common stock, while holders of Class A common stock have one vote per share of Class A common stock. Holders of Class B common stock who transfer their shares to the selling stockholders in exchange for shares of Class A common stock will reduce their voting power.

     The voting power of the selling stockholders will increase if the selling stockholders exchange their shares of Class A common stock for shares of Class B common stock in the exchange offer.

     Holders of Class A common stock and holders of Class B common stock vote together on matters submitted to a vote of NACCO’s stockholders. Consequently, if holders of Class B common stock transfer their shares of Class B common stock to the selling stockholders, the voting power of the selling stockholders will increase. As of March 1, 2010, the selling stockholders collectively controlled 54.3% of the voting power of outstanding shares of NACCO’s common stock based on the number of outstanding shares as of March 1, 2010. As of that date, there were 6,730,656 shares of Class A common stock and 1,598,653 shares of Class B common stock outstanding. If all shares of Class A common stock offered by this prospectus are exchanged for shares of Class B common stock and the selling stockholders act together when voting their shares of Class B common stock, they will control 68.4% of the voting power of outstanding shares of NACCO’s common stock based on the number of outstanding shares as of March 1, 2010, as well as the outcome of any class vote of the Class B common stock that requires the vote of at least a majority of the outstanding Class B common stock.

CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This prospectus and the documents incorporated herein by reference contain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements are made subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in these forward-looking statements.

     Hamilton Beach Brands: (1) changes in the sales prices, product mix or levels of consumer purchases of small electric appliances; (2) changes in consumer retail and credit markets; (3) bankruptcy of or loss of major retail customers or suppliers; (4) changes in costs, including transportation costs, of sourced products; (5) delays in delivery of sourced products; (6) changes in, or unavailability of quality or cost effective, suppliers; (7) exchange rate fluctuations, changes in the foreign import tariffs and monetary policies and other changes in the regulatory climate in the foreign countries in which Hamilton Beach Brands buys, operates and/or sells products; (8) product liability, regulatory actions or other litigation, warranty claims or returns of products; (9) customer acceptance of, changes in costs of, or delays in the development of new products; (10) increased competition, including consolidation within the industry; (11) changes mandated by federal, state and other regulation, including health, safety or environmental legislation; (12) the ability of Hamilton Beach Brands and its customers and suppliers to access credit in the current economic environment and (13) the ability of Hamilton Beach Brands to obtain future financing on reasonable terms or at all.

regulatory requirements, including changes in power plant emission regulations and health, safety or environmental legislation; (7) changes in the power industry that would affect demand for North American Coal’s reserves and (8) the ability of North American Coal’s utility customers to access credit markets to maintain current liquidity.

USE OF PROCEEDS

     We will not receive any proceeds from the exchange of any shares by the selling stockholders.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

     Class A Common Stock Beneficial Ownership Table for Selling Stockholders. The following table sets forth, as of March 1, 2010, certain information with respect to the selling stockholders, including:

	•		the name of each selling stockholder;
	•		the number of shares of Class A common stock owned by each selling stockholder immediately prior to the sale of shares offered by this prospectus;
	•		the number of shares of Class A common stock offered for exchange by each selling stockholder by this prospectus; and
	•		the percentage of ownership of Class A common stock of each selling stockholder immediately following the exchange of shares offered by this prospectus based on the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding on March 1, 2010.

     A total of 355,703 shares of Class A common stock is being offered by this prospectus. Alfred M. Rankin, Jr., Thomas T. Rankin, Claiborne R. Rankin and Roger F. Rankin, or in each case their revocable trusts, and Rankin Associates IV, L.P., or Rankin IV, are offering to exchange the following numbers of shares of Class A common stock: Alfred M. Rankin, Jr., 92,857; Thomas T. Rankin, 52,861; Claiborne R. Rankin, 29,263; Roger F. Rankin, 75,450; and Rankin IV, 105,272. Because each individual selling stockholder or his revocable trust will offer to exchange the shares, both the individual selling stockholder and his trust are listed separately in the tables below. However, each individual, together with his revocable trust, will only offer to exchange the number of shares of Class A common stock described above and, accordingly, an aggregate of 355,703 shares are being offered for exchange by this prospectus. In the tables below, the disclosure of the beneficial ownership of shares for the individual selling stockholders reflects all shares deemed to be beneficially owned by such selling stockholders (including those shares held in each selling stockholder’s revocable trust). The disclosure of the beneficial ownership of shares for each selling stockholder’s revocable trust includes only those shares held directly by such trust.

     Because the selling stockholders may offer all, a portion or none of the Class A common stock offered by this prospectus, we cannot assure you as to the number of shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock that will be held by the selling stockholders immediately following the offering. The tables below assume that the beneficial ownership of Class A common stock for each selling stockholder, including shares held directly and indirectly by an individual selling stockholder’s revocable trust, will decrease by an aggregate of the number of shares of Class A common stock described above as a result of this offering and that the beneficial ownership of Class B common stock for each selling stockholder, including shares held directly and indirectly by an individual selling stockholder’s revocable trust, will increase by the same number of shares of Class B common stock. The tables do not, however, account for any changes in each selling stockholder’s beneficial ownership that may result from transactions not contemplated by this prospectus such as an acquisition or disposition of shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock.

     As of the date of this prospectus, the selling stockholders have already exchanged 446,933 shares of the Class A common stock offered by the registration statement and prospectus related to the exchange offer that was initially filed on July 13, 2001, the registration statement and prospectus related to the exchange offer that was initially filed

on September 5, 2003 and the registration statement and prospectus related to the exchange offer that was initially filed on January 12, 2005.

Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Each share of Class B common stock is entitled to ten votes per share.

THE EXCHANGE OFFER

Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offer

     Under the terms of NACCO’s certificate of incorporation and a stockholders’ agreement, dated as of March 15, 1990, as amended, shares of Class B common stock are generally not transferable. Pursuant to the terms of the stockholders’ agreement to which each of the selling stockholders is a party, and NACCO’s certificate of incorporation, however, qualifying holders of Class B common stock may transfer shares of Class B common stock to the selling stockholders in exchange for shares of Class A common stock, on a share for share basis. The selling stockholders are offering to exchange up to 355,703 shares of Class A common stock with qualifying holders of Class B common stock. The selling stockholders may offer to exchange any or all of the shares of Class A common stock covered by this prospectus from time to time in varying amounts. As of the date of this prospectus, the selling stockholders have already exchanged 446,933 shares of Class A common stock registered by the registration statement and prospectus related to the exchange offer that was initially filed on July 13, 2001, the registration statement and prospectus related to the exchange offer that was initially filed on September 5, 2003 and the registration statement and prospectus related to the exchange offer that was initially filed on January 12, 2005.

     In order to be a qualifying holder of Class B common stock for purposes of this prospectus, the holder must be a party to the stockholders’ agreement and must be permitted to transfer shares of Class B common stock to the selling stockholders under NACCO’s certificate of incorporation and the stockholders’ agreement. As of March 1, 2010, the participating stockholders under the stockholders’ agreement beneficially owned 96.5% of the Class B common stock issued and outstanding on that date. Holders of shares of Class B common stock that are not subject to the stockholders’ agreement are permitted to transfer those shares subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in our certificate of incorporation, which include the ability of holders of shares of Class B common stock that are not subject to the stockholders’ agreement to transfer the shares to persons who are permitted transferees as specified in our certificate of incorporation or convert such shares of Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. Only holders of shares of Class B common stock that are subject to the stockholders’ agreement may exchange their shares of Class B common stock for shares of Class A common stock pursuant to this prospectus. In connection with any exchange of Class B common stock to the selling stockholders, we may require from each holder of Class B common stock documents that evidence the permitted nature of the exchange under NACCO’s certificate of incorporation.

     The Class A common stock offered for exchange by the selling stockholders is entitled to one vote per share. The Class B common stock that will be transferred by qualifying holders to the selling stockholders is entitled to ten votes per share.

     Persons who receive shares of Class A common stock from the selling stockholders may resell those shares of Class A common stock in brokerage transactions on the New York Stock Exchange in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, except that the six-month holding period requirement of Rule 144 will not apply.

     Any broker-dealers, agents or underwriters that participate in the distribution of the shares of Class A common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any profit on the sale of the shares of Class A common stock by them and any discounts, commissions or concessions received by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

     In order to comply with the securities laws of specific states, sales of shares of Class A common stock covered by this prospectus to qualifying holders of Class B common stock in some states may be made only through broker-dealers who are registered or licensed in those states.

     We have been advised by the selling stockholders that they have not, as of the date of this prospectus, entered into any arrangement with an agent, broker-dealer or underwriter for the sale of the shares of Class A common stock covered by this prospectus owned by them.

     Agents, broker-dealers and underwriters involved in the transactions contemplated by this prospectus may engage in transactions with, and perform investment banking and advisory services for, us.

     Agents, broker-dealers and underwriters may be entitled under agreements entered into with us and the selling stockholders to indemnification by us and the selling stockholders against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which those agents, broker-dealers or underwriters may be required to make.

Accounting Treatment

     For accounting purposes, we will recognize no gain or loss as a result of the exchange by holders of shares of Class B common stock for shares of Class A common stock pursuant to this prospectus.

No Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights

     In connection with the selling stockholders’ offer to exchange up to 355,703 shares of Class A common stock, you do not have any appraisal or dissenters’ rights under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

     Considerations with Respect to Discussion and Tax Opinion

     The tax opinion of Jones Day is and will be subject to the following assumptions, limitations and qualifications:

     The opinion addresses only the specified material U.S. federal income tax consequences of an exchange. It does not address any state, local or foreign tax consequences of an exchange.

     The opinion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular stockholder in light of his, her or its personal investment circumstances or to stockholders subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, including, without limitation, (1) certain U.S. expatriates, (2) stockholders that hold NACCO Class A or Class B common stock as part of a straddle, appreciated financial position, hedge, conversion transaction or other integrated investment, (3) financial institutions, (4) tax-exempt entities, (5) insurance companies, (6) dealers in securities or foreign currency, (7) traders that mark-to-market, (8) stockholders who acquired their shares of Class B common stock through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation or through a tax-qualified retirement plan, and (9) foreign corporations, foreign partnerships or other foreign entities and individuals who are not citizens or residents of the United States.

     The opinion does not address the tax consequences of any transaction other than an exchange pursuant to this prospectus.

     The opinion is based upon the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, Treasury regulations, administrative rulings and judicial decisions all in effect as of February 26, 2008, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, and which are subject to differing interpretations. Jones Day assumes no obligation to advise NACCO or the holders of Class B common stock of such changes.

     The opinion assumes that holders of Class B common stock hold their stock as a capital asset within the meaning of section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code.

     The opinion assumes that each exchange of Class B common stock for Class A common stock will be consummated in accordance with the descriptions contained in this prospectus.

     The opinion assumes that the fair market value of the Class A common stock to be received in any exchange and the fair market value of the Class B common stock to be delivered in any exchange will be approximately equal in value.

     The opinion assumes that none of the Class B common stock transferred to any selling stockholder in any exchange will be subject to a liability, and no selling stockholder that is a party to any exchange will assume any liabilities of a holder of Class B common stock in connection with the exchange.

     The opinion assumes that NACCO and the holders of Class B common stock who transfer their shares pursuant to an exchange will each pay their respective expenses, if any, incurred in connection with an exchange.

     The opinion assumes that the representations contained in a tax certification letter addressed to Jones Day from NACCO, as well as the assumptions set forth in the preceding paragraphs, are accurate at all material times, including the date of any exchange pursuant to this prospectus. The representations contained in the tax certification letter are statements of fact material to the determination as to whether gain or loss will be recognized as a result of an exchange.

     The opinion of Jones Day is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service and does not preclude it from adopting a contrary position. In addition, if any of the representations or assumptions upon which the discussion and opinion rely are inconsistent with the actual facts, the conclusions reached therein could be adversely affected.
