party. Termination shall be only for cause. Termination shall not include the expiration of
this Agreement by the passage of time.
 ARTICLE II: GRAIN ORIGINATION
 2.1.
    
    Grain Origination and Quality. A Corn Price Discount Schedule and Premium Schedule
for Alliance on a truckload and or rail car basis, will be established prior to the Effective
Date with input from and approval from both parties and attached hereto. The Corn Price
Discount Schedule or Premium Schedule will establish limits on quality grade factors for Corn
delivered to the Ethanol Plant. Alliance agrees that Corn sold to One Earth under this
Agreement shall meet the specifications and standard set forth in the Price Discount Schedule
or Premium Schedule. These quality and grade limits shall reflect industry standards for Corn.
All Corn delivered by Alliance Grain under this Agreement shall be of merchantable quality,
unadulterated, and unrestricted from movement in interstate commerce within the meaning of
applicable law. One Earth may reject Corn that does not meet the specifications set forth in
this Agreement. Grain delivered to the Ethanol Plant by means of a truck will be weighed and
graded prior to unloading. Grain delivered by covered hopper rail cars will be weight at the
Ethanol Plant; however, original Official Grades will be required. Unloading of the Corn at
the Ethanol Plant shall waive One Earths right to reject corn on the grounds of noncompliance
with the specifications set forth in this Agreement. Title, risk of loss and responsibility
for quality of the Corn shall pass to One Earth upon unloading the Corn at the Ethanol Plant.
In the event that a grade disagreement cannot be resolved between One Earth and Alliance, the
sample may be analyzed by the Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS). The results from this
testing shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. The cost of any testing by the FGIS
shall be paid by Alliance.

    Bushel Requirements. In consideration of the payment as set forth herein, Alliance
will originate and supply One Earth Energy with all of its annual Corn requirements during the
term of this Agreement. Alliance will be allowed to make deliveries during normal business
hours, and will be allowed to make deliveries outside of normal business hours provided; 1)
One Earth has adequate storage space, and 2) Alliance has provided twenty-four (24) hours
notice to One Earth Energy. One Earth will provide Alliance with a forecast of the Ethanol
Plants average Bushel needs on at least a monthly basis by the 15th day of each
month for the following month and shall immediately notify Alliance of any changes as they
occur. The parties expressly understand that One Earths notice shall be a good faith estimate
and that the parties anticipate reasonable variations
between the delivery forecast and actual delivery requirements. One Earths requirements may
be zero Bushels. Alliance shall not be liable for non-delivery of Bushels related to the
discrepancies between the forecasted requirements and the actual requirements provided to
Alliance by One Earth.
