CORE-MARK FUEL SURCHARGE NOTICEAs we all know, fuel prices fluctuate from time to time based on market conditions. Although Core­Mark factors
certain transportation costs into the price of its products, Core-Mark has implemented a fuel surcharge program toaddress the volatility in fuel prices. This Notice explains Core-Mark's assessment of fuel surcharges pursuant to its
fuel surcharge program. Note, this policy may not apply to customers that are subject to other business orcommercial terms with Core-Mark.
Since May 1, 2018, Core-Mark has assessed fuel surcharges using a grid based upon the average weekly on-highway
diesel prices published by the U.S. Energy Information Administration ("EIA"). Specifically, the fuel surcharge amountis applied to each invoice based upon the Core-Mark Fuel Surcharge Grid ("Grid") applicable to your geographic
region. The Grid will be updated on a monthly basis by determining the weekly average on-highway diesel price foryour region published by the EIA on the third Tuesday of the prior month for all months except January, April, July andOctober where the fourth Tuesday of that month is used, i.e. the December per invoice fuel surcharge amounts
shown on the Grid will be set based upon the EIA weekly index as of the third Tuesday in November.
CORE-MARK FUEL SURCHARGE GRID SAMPLE FOR ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES
Under Core-Mark's fuel surcharge program, if the average on-highway price of diesel fuel published by the EIA is$1.50 or more per gallon in your region on the third Tuesday of the prior month (or fourth Tuesday of January, April,
July and October), Core-Mark will apply the corresponding fuel surcharge per invoice amount shown in the Grid foreach delivery during that month. By way of example using a historical example of the Grid:

If the weekly average on-highway price of diesel fuel published by the EIA was less than $1.50 per gallon inyour region on the third Tuesday of the prior month (or fourth Tuesday of January, April, July and October), no
fuel surcharge will be applied during the current month;Every $.50 increase over $1.50 per gallon, the monthly per delivery fuel surcharge increases by $.50 perinvoice; andTo monitor diesel fuel prices in your region, simply visit the EIA website at:https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/pet_pri_gnd_a_epd2d_pte_dpgal_w.htm.

For further transparency, the fuel surcharge, when applicable, will be shown as a separate line item charge to yourinvoice. If a fuel surcharge is assessed, it will only be billed once per delivery regardless of the dollar value or amountof goods purchased. The fuel surcharge amounts on the Grid are calculated using the EIA on-highway diesel priceindex and not Core-Mark’s actual fuel expenses or the cost of fuel associated with a delivery to a particularcustomer’s location. The assessed fuel surcharge is not a separate tax or fee required by any governmental agency
or entity.
Accordingly, the fuel surcharge assessed for a particular delivery may exceed Core-Marks’ actual fuel expenses
associated with that delivery. Core-Marks’ fuel surcharge program, fuel surcharge amounts billed, and the Gridamounts are subject to change at Core-Marks’ discretion.
Please contact your Sales Representative if you have any questions regarding our fuel surcharge program or whichEIA region is applicable to you. Thank you for your continued business as a valued Core-Mark customer.
