AGREEMENT 
 Now
therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. Products, Forecasts and
Quantity Commitments  
 1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Term (as defined in Section 7.1)
of this Agreement, Smart Sand agrees to sell and deliver to EOG, and EOG agrees to purchase and accept from Smart Sand, *** frac sand products (or other size Products on an as agreed basis) mined and processed at Smart Sand’s facility in
Oakdale, Wisconsin based on the specifications (the “Specifications”) set forth in Appendix A attached hereto and incorporated by reference (each a “Product” and collectively, the
“Products”), and based on the product mix specified in Appendix B attached hereto and incorporated by reference, subject to the tonnage requirements as follows: 

 

			
	 Contract Year
	  	Minimum
Tons per Year
	 ***
	  	***

 Contract Years *** constitute the “Initial Term”. 

 

	*	*** 


	†	Indicates amounts subject to adjustment upon exercise of EOG’s additional purchase options, as set forth Section 1.8. “Minimum Tons per Year” shall mean the tons of Product EOG commits to purchase
during a Contract Year, whether the base volume or through the exercise of the Options. 

 1.2 For purposes of this Agreement,
a “Contract Year” shall mean (i) the period beginning on *** and ending at 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the one year anniversary of ***, and (ii) for each other Contract Year during the Term, the annual
period beginning on applicable anniversary of *** and ending at 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the one year anniversary of the commencement of the applicable annual period. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Effective Date is ***. 

1.3 Except as otherwise agreed by the parties, EOG shall provide Smart Sand with an initial *** non-binding forecast for all Product
requirements prior to the first month of delivery in the first Contract Year hereunder for each quarter. On a monthly basis, after issuance of the initial *** forecast as specified above, and on or before the first day of each ensuing calendar
month, EOG shall update its forecast to maintain a *** rolling forecast (each such forecast, a “Forecast”). 

  
 1 








 1.4 In no event will Smart Sand be required to provide to EOG in any given month during the Term
an aggregate quantity of Products exceeding *** tons during *** and *** tons during ***; provided, however, that if EOG exercises its options to purchase additional Products, as set forth in Section 1.8, then the foregoing maximum
monthly amount shall be increased by *** of the Minimum Tons per Year EOG elects to purchase. EOG shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to purchase additional *** (over and above the *** ton or *** ton annual commitment, as applicable)
Product each Contract Year, under the terms and at the price provided for herein, during the Term of this Agreement (the “Right of First Refusal”). Smart Sand may only sell such quantities of *** Product to third parties as are
specifically refused by EOG in writing; provided, however, that EOG shall have no right to specify price or other commercial terms of such third party sales as a condition of its refusal. Any refusal of sand or partial waiver of
EOG’s Right of First Refusal (regardless of whether such refusal or partial waiver is for a specified quantity in tons of Product, period of time or otherwise) shall not terminate EOG’s Right of First Refusal for any and all sand not
specifically refused or waived by EOG in writing. Smart Sand may only sell *** to third parties, pursuant to *** (the “Third Party Products”), if Smart Sand has first provided EOG with written notice of its intent to enter into a
third party agreement(s) and EOG has subsequently provided Smart Sand with written notice of its election not to exercise its Right of First Refusal prior to Smart Sand and such third parties entering into such agreement(s). In the event EOG elects,
in writing, not to exercise its Right of First Refusal, EOG may only exercise the Right of First Refusal in each Contract Year for the amount of *** equal to *** tons minus the aggregate Third Party Products that Smart Sand has committed to
sell for such Contract Year minus the Minimum Tons per Year EOG elects to purchase in such Contract Year. 
 1.5 Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that EOG purchases less than the Minimum Tons per Year stated in Section 1.1 above during any Contract Year during the Term and has not, ***, purchased an amount exceeding ***
(“Prior Excess”) by an amount greater than or equal to any such shortfall, EOG shall pay to Smart Sand, on or before the date which is *** after receipt of an invoice from Smart Sand, an amount (a “True-Up Payment”)
equal to (i) the applicable Contract Price (as determined pursuant to Appendix C attached hereto and incorporated by reference) for the applicable Contract Year multiplied by the difference between the applicable Minimum Tons per
Year stated above and the actual tons purchased by the EOG during such Contract Year (“Actual Tons”) for any Product below the cumulative initial *** tons EOG committed to purchase; (ii) plus *** multiplied by the
difference between the Minimum Tons per Year and *** Tons for any Product above the cumulative initial *** tons EOG committed to Purchase; (iii) minus the Prior Excess multiplied by the applicable Contract Price; provided,
however, that EOG may choose to defer payment of a True-Up Payment by applying the net tons for the applicable Contract Year to the Tonnage Deferment Amount (as defined in Section 1.6 below), provided that the aggregate amount of net
tons applied to the Tonnage Deferment Amount during the Initial Term does not exceed the Maximum Deferment Amount (as defined in Section 1.6). 

1.6 For purposes of this Agreement, the “Tonnage Deferment Amount” shall mean, at any given time during the Initial Term or
Renewal Term, the aggregate amount of net tons that have been applied by EOG to the Tonnage Deferment Amount, in accordance with Section 1.5 above, in an amount not to exceed *** of the committed annual volume of Product (the “Maximum
Deferment Amount”). For example, (a) during ***, the Maximum Deferment Amount will be *** tons, (b) commencing *** (and assuming that EOG does not exercise the Options (as defined in Section 1.8(A)), the Maximum Deferment
Amount will be *** tons, and (c) if EOG exercises the Options, the Maximum Deferment Amount will be ***. Within *** after completion of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, whichever is later, EOG shall pay to Smart Sand (the “Deferment
Payment”) an amount equal to the sum of (i) the net tons applied to the Tonnage Deferment Amount during the Term which remain deferred upon expiration of the Term, if any, multiplied by (ii) the Contract Price in effect
upon completion of the Term. 
 1.7 Upon payment of the Deferment Payment, EOG shall have twelve (12) months to take delivery of
the deferred Products. Smart Sand shall deliver to EOG the Products that have been and remain deferred pursuant to the Tonnage Deferment Amount, under a reasonable and mutually agreeable delivery schedule. If


  
 2 








 
EOG does not timely take delivery of some or all of such Products, EOG shall not be entitled to any refund of all or any portion of the Deferment Payment made to Smart Sand and EOG shall forfeit
any title to or right to receive the amount of Products that EOG has chosen not to receive. 
 1.8 Smart Sand will construct a new sand dry
processing plant located in Oakdale, Wisconsin (the “New Facility”), which must commence operations no later than the beginning of ***. 

(A) Commencing on *** and continuing until the *** after *** (the “Options Exercise Period”), EOG shall have the options to
purchase up to an additional *** tons of *** Products per year for the remainder of the Initial Term, which EOG may exercise by providing written notice to Smart Sand prior to the expiration of the Options Exercise Period (the “Options”).
If EOG exercises its Options, EOG will be committed for the remainder of the Initial Term to the Minimum Monthly Volumes set forth in Appendix B at “Options Exercise”, subject to adjustment as provided in (B) below. In the
event EOG exercises its rights to renew this Agreement ***, EOG shall, at the time of delivery of EOG’s written notice(s) to Smart Sand of EOG’s intent to renew, provide Smart Sand with written notice of the amount of Product that EOG will
commit to purchase during the *** Renewal Term; provided, however, EOG may not increase or decrease its Minimum Tons per Year for the following Renewal Term by more than *** of the Minimum Tons per Year EOG committed to purchase in the
prior Contract Year; provided, further, that in no event shall the Minimum Tons per Year be less than *** tons. 
 (B) If the
New Facility is not capable of producing the then-applicable Minimum Monthly Volumes, as set forth in Appendix B, then: (i) if such incapability occurs during or after *** and the Options has not been exercised, (a) the price of
Products, during the period commencing on the first day of *** and ending on the day in which the New Facility is capable of producing *** tons of Products per month, shall be *** per ton, subject to any increases provided for in Appendix C,
and (b) the commitment to purchase Products shall be reduced for ***, and each subsequent Contract Year until the New Facility is capable of producing *** tons of Product per month, by an amount equal to *** divided by 365 multiplied
by the number of days between the beginning of the applicable Contract Year and the day in which the New Facility is capable of producing *** tons of Product per month; or (ii) if such incapability occurs *** and after the Options have been
exercised (if such exercise occurs), (a) the price of Products, during the period commencing on *** and ending on the day in which the New Facility is capable of producing *** of the tons of Products EOG elects to purchase in a Contract Year
per month, shall be *** per ton, subject to any increases provided for in Appendix C, and (b) the commitment to purchase Products after exercise of the Options shall be reduced in the first Contract Year in which the applicable option is
exercised, and each subsequent Contract Year until the New Facility is capable of producing *** of the tons of Product EOG elects to purchase in a Contract Year per month, by an amount equal to the difference between the amount of Product EOG elects
to purchase in a Contract Year and *** divided by 365 multiplied by the number of days between the beginning of the Contract Year and the day in which the New Facility is capable of producing *** of the tons of Product EOG elects to
purchase in a Contract Year per month. 
 (C) The parties intend and agree that the Options and the Right of First Refusal are for
commercial convenience, based on EOG’s need for the Product, and are not intended to be regulated as options under the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended by the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. 

1.9 EOG shall issue purchase orders or other mutually agreeable documentation to Smart Sand setting forth the quantities of Products,
applicable prices, requested ship dates, destination of shipment and other details related to a specific order. 
 1.10 The terms and
conditions of this Agreement are the controlling terms and conditions for the purchase of Products by EOG. The printed terms and conditions of any purchase order, acknowledgment form, invoice or other business form of EOG and Smart Sand shall not
apply to any order. EOG and Smart Sand agree that any purchase order issued, acknowledgment form, invoice or other business form of EOG or Smart Sand is for quantity and timing purposes only, and such documents do not form the basis of any contract.

 2. Price and Payment Terms 

2.1 The pricing for the Products for each Contract Year shall be as set forth on Appendix C attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference (“Contract Price”). Smart Sand agrees that all Products ordered by EOG will be loaded onto EOG supplied railcars and shipped as specified in the purchase order or other mutually agreeable documentation, provided,
however, that (i) EOG agrees to comply with all reasonable freight scheduling mechanisms and timeframes designated by Smart Sand in writing to EOG from time to time, and (ii) all railcars supplied by EOG will be set up to receive
unpackaged Products, and delivery of the Products shall occur upon the transfer of Products into the applicable railcar via a delivery chute. Delivery will be, and all prices are quoted, FCA Smart Sand’s rail spur facility located in Oakdale,
Wisconsin, Incoterms 2010. For the avoidance of doubt, all rail and shipping costs, including, without limitation, insurance costs, shall be borne exclusively by EOG. The Contract Price shall be subject to adjustments implemented during the Term in
accordance with the terms set forth in Appendix C. 
 2.2 Unless separately stated otherwise on an invoice, prices quoted by Smart
Sand do not include sales, VAT, use or similar taxes. And such taxes, fees, duties, and customs charges imposed on Smart Sand, except for income, profits, franchise or other such taxes, in the country or area of operations shall be reimbursed to
Smart Sand by EOG, unless an exemption from the Wisconsin state and local sales tax is applicable. The provisions of this clause shall continue after termination of this Agreement. 

2.3 Smart Sand shall invoice EOG upon shipment of Products. Payment by EOG shall be due and payable within *** after the date of invoice. Past
due invoices are subject to a monthly service charge at a rate equal to the lesser of *** per month or the maximum rate from time to time permitted by applicable law. 

2.4 Upon placing this instrument with an attorney for collection of undisputed past due payments or repossession of Products, EOG shall
reimburse Smart Sand for reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other taxable expenses incurred by Smart Sand to enforce the terms and conditions stated herein. 

3. Specifications 

In the event EOG desires to change the Specifications, a request for change shall be submitted to Smart Sand in writing. Smart Sand must agree
to any such changes in writing prior to amendment of the Specifications. Smart Sand shall notify EOG of any adjustment to the Contract Prices resulting from the changes to the Specifications requested by EOG. EOG must agree to the adjustment to the
Contract Prices in writing prior to any amendment of the Specifications. 
 4. Delivery 

4.1 The Products shall be delivered in accordance with Section 2.1 of this Agreement. EOG may store up to *** railcars (*** railcars after
exercise of the Options) at Smart Sand’s Oakdale, Wisconsin facility to be used solely to “hook and haul” (i.e. one-half of the cars will be dropped off empty and one-half of the cars will be promptly removed) the Products. Smart Sand
reserves the right to charge EOG a storage fee of *** per car per day for any EOG controlled rail car that remains at Smart Sand’s rail facility longer than *** after the complete unit train (approximately ***) is fully loaded with Product,
which amount shall increase to *** per car per day for any car that remains at Smart Sand’s rail facility longer than *** after being fully loaded with Product. 

4.2 In the event that, during a consecutive *** period, Smart Sand is unable to supply an average of at least *** of the Products requested by
EOG and provided that Smart Sand’s inability to supply is not the result of an Excusable Delay under Section 9 below that continues for a period of less than ***, then EOG shall have the option, but not the obligation, to reduce the
Minimum Tons per Year EOG is obligated to purchase to the Minimum Tons per Year that Smart Sand is capable of supplying, and the Minimum Monthly Volume EOG 

  
 4 








 
is obligated to purchase shall be reduced accordingly. In the event Smart Sand becomes capable of producing the original Minimum Tons per Year (the Minimum Tons per Year EOG committed to purchase
prior to being reduced by EOG) not later than *** after EOG elects to reduce the Minimum Tons per Year, EOG shall have the option, but not the obligation, to increase the Minimum Tons per Year back to the original Minimum Tons per Year,
proportionately reduced by the number of days in which the Minimum Tons per Year were reduced. 
 5. Inspection 

Smart Sand shall test the Products in accordance with the testing procedures set forth on Appendix D attached hereto and incorporated by
reference for compliance with the Specifications. Smart Sand shall retain all testing records for a period of *** and shall, at EOG’s request, supply to EOG a copy of Smart Sand’s test sheets, certified by Smart Sand to be a true copy.
Because deliveries made pursuant to this Agreement shall be via large individual loads by rail, any inspection by EOG can be made at the point of loading. EOG may, at its expense, have a representative at Smart Sand’s facility for the purpose
of such inspection. Any Products not conforming to Specifications as determined by the testing procedures set forth on Appendix D prior to delivery are hereby rejected. Any such Products shall promptly be replaced by Smart Sand at no expense
to EOG. 
 6. Warranty 

6.1 Smart Sand warrants to EOG that Smart Sand shall have complied in all material respects with the testing procedures set forth on
Appendix D with respect to each Product. All Products delivered to EOG shall meet the Specifications. 
 6.2 EOG acknowledges that
Products may become damaged by improper handling after leaving Smart Sand’s facility or terminal and that Smart Sand shall have no obligation to replace such damaged Products, except to the extent such damage is caused, in whole or in part, by
the negligence or willful acts of Smart Sand, and its employees, contractors, agents and representatives. 
 6.3 THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY
IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES. SMART SAND MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE WITH RESPECT TO ANY PRODUCTS.

7.1 This Agreement shall become effective as of the *** (the “Effective Date”), and shall expire at 11:59 p.m. on *** (the
“Term”) unless sooner terminated as provided herein. This Agreement may be renewed by EOG for *** (each a “Renewal Term”, and together with the Initial Term, collectively, the “Term”) upon
delivery of written notice to Smart Sand of EOG’s intent to renew no later than *** prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, or ***, as applicable. If the EOG exercises its right to renew the agreement ***, the Agreement shall expire at
11:59 p.m. on the last day of *** and there shall be no further right of renewal. If the EOG exercises its right to renew the Agreement ***, the Agreement shall expire at 11:59 p.m. on the last day of *** and there shall be no further right of
renewal. If the EOG exercises its right to renew the Agreement ***, the Agreement shall expire at 11:59 p.m. on the last day of *** and there shall be no further right of renewal. 

7.2 (a) Either party may terminate this Agreement, immediately upon written notice to the other party, (i) if such other party is in
material breach of any of its obligations under the Agreement and fails to cure such breach within *** (***for the nonpayment of money) after receipt of written notice thereof from such other party or (ii) if such other party is insolvent or
makes any arrangement with its creditors generally, or has a receiver appointed for all or a substantial part of its business of properties, or an insolvency, bankruptcy of similar proceeding is brought by or against such other party and involving

 5 








 (b) If an Excusable Delay set forth in Section 9 continues for a period of at least ***,
then the party not claiming Excusable Delay may, at its option, immediately upon written notice to the other party, elect to terminate this Agreement. 

7.3 In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 7.2, this Agreement shall immediately become void and there
shall be no liability or obligation on the part of any party hereto; provided, that (i) any such termination shall not relieve any party from liability for any willful breach of this Agreement or any fraud and (ii) the
provisions of this Section 7.3 (Effect of Termination) and Sections 8 (Confidentiality), 10 (Limitation of Liability), 11 (Notices), 12 (Resolution of Disputes) and 15 (Miscellaneous) of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and
survive any termination of this Agreement. 
 7.4 Notwithstanding the anything to the contrary in Section 7.3, in the event EOG
terminates this Agreement pursuant to Sections 7.2(a)(i) or (ii), or either party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2(b), EOG shall pay, within *** of the receipt of an invoice from Smart Sand, all amounts due and owing to Smart
Sand for Products delivered by Smart Sand prior to the effective date of termination. In the event Smart Sand terminates this Agreement pursuant to Sections 7.2(i) or (ii), EOG shall pay, within *** of the receipt of an invoice from Smart Sand, an
amount equal to: 
  

	 	(A)	all amounts due and owing to Smart Sand for Products delivered by Smart Sand prior to the effective date of termination; plus 


 

	 	(B)	an amount equal to: (i) *** multiplied by the difference between *** and the actual tons purchased by the EOG during the Term, plus (ii) ***multiplied by the difference
between the amount of tons in excess of *** that EOG has committed to purchase during the Term and the actual tons in excess of *** purchased by EOG during the Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event EOG makes any Deferred Payment(s)
and/or True-Up Payment(s) during the Term, it shall be treated as though the net tons applied to or relating to such payments were delivered by Smart Sand and purchased and received by EOG. 


For example, if upon termination, (i) EOG previously purchased *** tons of Product during the Term but failed to purchase and receive ***
tons, then EOG shall pay Smart Sand *** times *** tons for total liquidated damages of ***, or (ii) EOG previously purchased *** tons of Product during the Term but had committed to purchasing *** tons of Product, then EOG shall pay Smart Sand
*** times *** tons for total liquidated damages of ***. 
 8. Confidentiality 

8.1 The parties acknowledge that either party may disclose (orally or in writing) to the other confidential and proprietary information
relating to the Products or each party’s business, including but not limited to this Agreement and in particular the price terms (together the “Confidential Information”). Each party agrees that it will keep the Confidential
Information of the other party disclosed to it and the existence of this Agreement in confidence by using at least the same degree of care to prevent unauthorized disclosure or use thereof as such party uses to protect its own confidential
information of like nature, and that it will not knowingly disclose, directly or indirectly, any item of Confidential Information or the existence of this Agreement, or any part thereof, to any person, without the prior written consent of the
disclosing party, except only to those of the recipient’s employees, contractors, agents and representatives who need to know the same in the performance of their duties for the recipient in connection with this Agreement. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the parties may disclose this Agreement, including the price terms, to (i) third-parties who own working interests in oil and/or gas wells where the Product is delivered and/or used, (ii) their attorneys,
(iii) their bankers and lenders to the extent necessary to comply with loan covenants and disclosure requirements imposed by their loan documents, (iv) their accountants and auditors, and (v) to any government authority in accordance
with any law, rule or regulation. 

  
 6 








 8.2 The parties’ non-disclosure obligations restrictions hereunder shall continue with
respect to any item of Confidential Information until the earlier of the expiration of two (2) years following the termination of this Agreement for any reason, or until such item: (a) is or has become publicly available; or (b) was
in the possession of, or known by, the recipient without an obligation to keep it confidential; or (c) has been disclosed to the recipient by an unrelated third party, without an obligation to keep it confidential; or (d) has been
independently developed by the recipient. 
 9. Excusable Delay 

Upon providing the other party notice and reasonably full particulars of an event of force majeure (as described below) in writing, within a
reasonable time after the occurrence of such event of force majeure, such party shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform to the extent caused by fire, flood, adverse weather conditions, explosion, war, riot, embargo, labor disputes,
strike, shortage of utilities, material or labor, delay in transportation, compliance with any laws, regulations, orders, acts or requirements from the government, civil or military authorities, government-mandated facility shutdowns or limitations,
acts of God or the public enemy, or any other act or event of any nature reasonably beyond such party’s control. In such circumstances, the party not claiming force majeure may, at its option, elect to cancel the portion of any order subject to
such delay by providing to the other party prompt written notice of its election, provided that, such cancellation shall apply only to that portion of the order affected by the foregoing circumstances and the balance of the order shall
continue in full force and effect. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if Smart Sand’s production capacity is impaired as a result of one or more of the foregoing events of force majeure, then the Minimum Tons per Year,
for the Contract Year(s) in which the event(s) of force majeure occur, shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Minimum Tons Per Year divided by 365 multiplied by the number of days in the Contract Year that Smart Sand’s
production capacity is impaired as a result of such event(s) of force majeure. 
 10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. 

EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST GOODWILL, LOST PROFITS, WORK STOPPAGE OR IMPAIRMENT OF OTHER GOODS, AND WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT,
TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE OR IF SUCH DAMAGE COULD HAVE BEEN REASONABLY FORESEEN.

 15.3 No delay or failure by either party to exercise or enforce at any time any right or
provision of this Agreement shall be considered a waiver thereof or of such party’s right thereafter to exercise or enforce each and every right and provision of this Agreement. A waiver to be valid shall be in writing, but need not be
supported by consideration. No single waiver shall constitute a continuing of subsequent waiver. 
 15.4 The rights and obligations of the
parties hereto shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement to the extent that any performance is required under this Agreement after such termination or expiration. 

15.5 This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute
one and the same document.

Agreement. 
 15.7 If any provision of this Agreement shall be held illegal, invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, such provision

 APPENDIX C 

Product Pricing 

Contract Prices are the sum of annual Base Prices and Quarterly fuel surcharges, as detailed below. Pricing for shipments each month should
be based on the Contract Prices for the most recent quarter. 
  

	 	1)	Base Prices are as follows: 

  

					
	 Product
	  	 Base Prices ($ / Ton) aggregate amount of

Product ordered during Contract Term of

1 to *** tons
	  	 Base Prices ($ / Ton) aggregate amount

of Product ordered during Contract

Term of *** tons and above

	 *** Frac Sand
	  	***	  	***

 The foregoing prices are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 1.8(B). Commencing *** (if the Term
is extended pursuant to Section 7.1) and continuing for ***, if any, Base Prices will be increased annually in an amount equal to the year over year increase in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) – All items, as
reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. 
  

	 	2)	Quarterly diesel and natural gas/propane fuel surcharges adjustments, starting on the first quarter of Contract Year 1, with details below: 


Natural Gas Surcharge: A Natural Gas Surcharge will be applied if the Average Natural Gas Price (ANGP) as listed on
WWW.EIA.DOE.GOV for the preceding calendar quarter is above the Bench Mark, set at *** per MMBTU, and shall be adjusted at the end of each calendar quarter for the duration of the agreement. A surcharge of *** per ton for every *** per MMBTU
increase for the ANGP for the preceding calendar quarter will apply in addition to the Base Price for all products. The calculation will be prorated, i.e., if the ANGP for a prior quarter averages *** per MMBTU, the surcharge will be *** per ton for
the following quarter. 
 As an example, if the average of the monthly closes of NYMEX natural gas for January, February and March is ***,
then *** will be added to the applicable Base Price for April, May and June. Additionally, if the average of the monthly closes of NYMEX natural gas for April, May and June is *** or less, then $0 will be added to the Base Price for July August and
September. 
 [Appendix C continues on following page] 







 Propane Surcharge: A Propane Surcharge will be applied if the Average Quarterly Mont
Belvieu, 
 TX Propane Spot Price (AMBTX) as listed on WWW.EIA.GOV 

(http://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=pet&s=eer_epllpa_pf4_y44mb_dpg&f=m) 

for the preceding calendar quarter is above the Bench Mark, set at *** per gallon of Propane ((Month 1 Average + Month 2 Average + Month 3
Average)/3=AMBTX), and shall be adjusted at the end of each calendar quarter for the duration of the agreement. A surcharge of *** per ton for every *** per gallon increase in the AMBTX for the preceding calendar quarter will apply in addition to
the Base Price for all products. The calculation will be prorated, i.e., if the AMBTX for a prior quarter averages *** per Gallon, the surcharge will be *** per ton for the following quarter. 

As an example, if the average of the monthly closes of Mont Belvieu, TX Propane Spot for January, February and March is ***/gallon, then ***
will be added to the applicable Base Price for April, May and June. Additionally, if the average of the monthly closes of NYMEX natural gas for April, May and June is ***/gallon or less, then $0 will be added to the Base Price for July August and
September.
