If the  Parties mutually agree in writing to seek additional Macquarie Permitted Feedstock  Procurement Contracts, then the Company shall endeavor to identify quantities of  Permitted Feedstock that may be acquired from one or more Third Party Suppliers under  contracts that provide for one or more shipment(s) of Permitted Feedstock.  The Company  may negotiate with any such Third Party Supplier regarding the price and other terms of  such potential additional Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract.  The  Company shall have no authority to bind Macquarie to, or enter into on Macquarie’s behalf,  

 

  47  13585990v13  any additional Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract, and the Company  shall not represent to any third party that it has such authority.  If the Company has  negotiated an offer from a Third Party Supplier for an additional Macquarie Permitted  Feedstock Procurement Contract that the Company wishes to be executed, the Company  shall apprise Macquarie in writing, using the applicable trade sheet included in Schedule  Q, of the terms of such offer, and Macquarie shall promptly, but no later than two (2)  Business Days after the Company’s delivery of such applicable trade sheet, determine and  advise the Company as to whether Macquarie desires to accept such offer.  If Macquarie  indicates its desire to accept such offer, then Macquarie shall promptly endeavor to  formally communicate its acceptance of such offer to the Company and such Third Party  Supplier so that the Third Party Supplier and Macquarie may enter into a binding additional  Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract on terms agreeable to Macquarie.    In the event Macquarie does not respond within such two (2) Business Days, Macquarie  shall be deemed to have declined to enter into such Macquarie Permitted Feedstock  Procurement Contract.  If any Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract is a  term contract pursuant to which Macquarie may, from time to time, nominate a shipment  by a Nomination Cutoff Date for expected delivery during a designated month, Macquarie  shall apprise the Company of such timing requirements relating to such Nomination Cutoff  Date.  (c) Macquarie’s Right to Reject Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement  Contracts. Macquarie may, in its discretion elect to reject any such offer to enter into an  Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract, provided that from time to time  during the Term hereof Macquarie shall, upon the reasonable request of the Company,  consult with the Company regarding those counterparties that Macquarie would be  prepared to trade with as of the time of such consultation upon review of acceptable  documentation as further contemplated herein.  Macquarie’s decision to reject any such  offer shall be based on such factors and considerations as Macquarie deems relevant, which  may include (without limitation) the proposed commercial terms, credit considerations  (including credit quality and credit limits), reputational considerations, prior or current  interactions between Macquarie and the proposed Third Party Supplier, the presence or  absence of trading documentation between Macquarie and the proposed Third Party  Supplier, the presence or absence of a pre-existing trading relationship with the proposed  Third Party Supplier or the suitability of the proposed Third Party Supplier for such  transaction.  Without limiting the foregoing, any proposed Third Party Supplier shall be  required to satisfy Macquarie’s internal requirements and policies as they relate to any  applicable “know-your-customer” rules, anti-money laundering policies and procedures,  laws, rules and regulations (including without limitation, the Patriot Act, and rules and  regulations of OFAC) and other similar client identification and business conduct standards  and dealing policies and procedures (including reputational considerations), in each case,  as consistently applied by Macquarie and to have provided to Macquarie all material  documentation and other information required by such policies and procedures and  applicable regulatory authorities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Macquarie shall not  reject any such offer to enter into a Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract  with any counterparty based solely on the fact that such offer was presented to it by the  Company hereunder where, at such time, Macquarie would otherwise have transacted with  such counterparty on such terms and under all other applicable policies and limitations.   

 

  48  13585990v13  (d) Sale of Macquarie Procurement Barrels. For sales of Macquarie  Procurement Barrels by Macquarie to Company, title and risk of loss for each quantity of  Permitted Feedstock shall pass to Company as the Permitted Feedstock passes the  applicable Macquarie Delivery Point free of liens, other than Permitted S&O Liens.  The  Parties acknowledge that the consideration due from the Company to Macquarie for any  Permitted Feedstock shall be paid for in accordance with Article 10.   (e) Company’s Obligation to Purchase Macquarie Procurement Barrels.  The  Company acknowledges and agrees that, subject to the terms and conditions of this  Agreement, it is obligated to purchase and take delivery of all Permitted Feedstock  acquired by Macquarie under Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contracts.  In  the event of a dispute, Macquarie shall provide, to the extent legally and contractually  permissible, to the Company, a copy of the Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement  Contract in question.  5.3 Nominations under Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contracts.  (a) Shipment Notification.  With respect to each shipment under a Macquarie  Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract that the Company desires be delivered during  a specified Delivery Month, the Company shall notify Macquarie of such shipment at least  fifteen (15) days prior to the first applicable Nomination Cutoff Date for such month, if  any (each, a “Shipment Notification”).  As part of such Projected Monthly Run Volume,  the Company may specify the grade of such Projected Monthly Run Volume, provided that  such grades and their respective quantities specified by the Company shall fall within the  grades and quantities then available to be nominated by Macquarie under the outstanding  Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contracts.   (b) Contract Nominations.  Provided that the Company provides Macquarie  with the Projected Monthly Run Volume as required under Section 7.2(a) and the Shipment  Notifications as required under Section 5.3(a), Macquarie and the Company shall consult  regarding scheduling and other selections and nominations (collectively, “Contract  Nominations”) to be made by Macquarie under then outstanding Macquarie Permitted  Feedstock Procurement Contracts on or before any applicable Nomination Cutoff Dates  taking into account the quantities of Other Barrels.  To the extent reasonably practicable  and in accordance with its consultation with the Company, Macquarie shall endeavor to  make Contract Nominations that reflect, and do not exceed or fall below, the quantity of  each grade specified by the Company in such Projected Monthly Run Volume.  Should any  Contract Nomination not be accepted by any Third Party Supplier under a Macquarie  Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract or by any pipeline, rail line or truck line  operator under a transportation services agreement, Macquarie shall promptly advise the  Company and use commercially reasonable efforts with the Company and such Third Party  Supplier to revise the Contract Nomination subject to the terms of any such Macquarie  Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract or applicable transportation services  agreement.  Macquarie shall provide the Company with confirmation of each such Contract  Nomination that is made.  

 

  49  13585990v13  (c) Adjustment to Contract Nominations.  The Parties agree that the Company  may, from time to time, request that Macquarie make adjustments or modifications to  Contract Nominations it has previously made under the Macquarie Permitted Feedstock  Procurement Contracts or a transportation services agreement.  Promptly following receipt  of any such request, Macquarie shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make such  adjustment or modification, subject to any limitations or restrictions under the relevant  Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contracts or transportation services  agreement.  Any additional out of pocket costs or expenses incurred as a result of such an  adjustment or modification shall constitute an Ancillary Cost hereunder.  (d) Communications Protocol.  In addition to the nomination process,  Macquarie and the Company shall follow the mutually agreed communications protocol as  set forth on Schedule J, with respect to ongoing daily coordination with feedstock suppliers,  including purchases or sales of Permitted Feedstock or other feedstocks outside of the  normal nomination procedures.   (e) Forecast; Operational Volume Range.  Each of the Company and Macquarie  agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts in preparing the forecasts, projections and  nominations required by this Agreement in a manner intended to maintain Permitted  Feedstock and Renewable Product operational volumes within the Operational Volume  Range.  5.4 Refinery Procured Permitted Feedstock Barrels.   (a) Macquarie Right to Purchase Refinery Procured Permitted Feedstock  Barrels.

To the extent  the Company wishes to sell any Permitted Feedstock to any third party, the Company  acknowledges that it shall not have the authority to agree to such sale without Macquarie’s  prior written consent.   (b) Procedures and Mechanisms for Refinery Procured Permitted Feedstock  Barrels. Prior to the delivery of any Refinery Procured Permitted Feedstock Barrels  hereunder, the Parties shall establish procedures and mechanisms, reasonably satisfactory  to Macquarie, for determining and reporting specific volumes of such Refinery Procured  Permitted Feedstock Barrels.  (c) Sales of Refinery Procured Permitted Feedstock Barrels. For sales by the  Company to Macquarie, they shall be on DDP (Incoterms 2010) basis at Current Month  Pricing Benchmark(s), subject to the calculation of the Monthly True-Up Amounts as  provided for on Schedule C-2, and title and risk of loss for each quantity of Permitted  Feedstock shall pass to Macquarie as the Permitted Feedstock passes the applicable  Permitted Feedstock Intake Point free of Liens.  The Parties acknowledge that the  consideration due from Macquarie to the Company for any Permitted Feedstock shall be  paid for in accordance with Article 10.  

 

  50  13585990v13  5.5 Sale of Permitted Feedstock by Macquarie at Permitted Feedstock Delivery Points.  (a) Sale of Permitted Feedstock by Macquarie to the Company.  Provided no  Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Macquarie shall be permitted  to sell and the Company shall be permitted to purchase Permitted Feedstock from the  Included Permitted Feedstock Storage Tanks and take delivery of such Permitted Feedstock  at the Permitted Feedstock Delivery Point in accordance with the Weekly Permitted  Feedstock Projection, or as otherwise mutually agreed to by the Parties.  Though not  obligated to do so, Macquarie shall, absent an Event of Default, make commercially  reasonable efforts to sell Permitted Feedstock to the Company before selling to another  Person.  The purchase and receipt of any Permitted Feedstock by Company at any  Permitted Feedstock Delivery Point shall be on an “ex works” basis (EXW Incoterms 2010)  free of liens, other than Permitted S&O Liens.  Upon such sale, title and risk of loss will  transfer to the Company.  The Company shall bear sole responsibility for the withdrawal  of Permitted Feedstock from the Included Permitted Feedstock Storage Tanks.  The  Company shall take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to maintain a  connection with the Included Permitted Feedstock Storage Tanks to enable the withdrawal  and delivery of Permitted Feedstock as contemplated hereby.  (b) Sale of Permitted Feedstock by Macquarie to Third Party.

  52  13585990v13  provided that this Section 5.8(b) in no way limits the Company’s rights to consent to all  Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contracts as contemplated by Section 5.2.  In  addition, to the extent it is permitted to do so, Macquarie shall endeavor to keep the  Company apprised of, and consult with the Company regarding, the terms and conditions  being incorporated into any Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract under  negotiation with a Third Party Supplier.    5.9 DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES.  EXCEPT FOR MACQUARIE’S  WARRANTY THAT MACQUARIE SHALL HAVE AND CONVEY GOOD TITLE TO ALL  PERMITTED FEEDSTOCK OR RENEWABLE PRODUCTS SOLD BY MACQUARIE TO  COMPANY HEREUNDER, FREE AND CLEAR OF ALL LIENS, OTHER THAN  PERMITTED S&O LIENS, MACQUARIE MAKES NO WARRANTY, CONDITION OR  OTHER REPRESENTATION, WRITTEN OR ORAL, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF  MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS OR SUITABILITY OF SUCH PERMITTED FEEDSTOCK  OR RENEWABLE PRODUCTS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE.

In  all instances wherein claims are made by a third party against Macquarie which shall be  for the account of the Company, the Company shall have the right, subject to Section  5.10(d), to either direct Macquarie to take commercially reasonable actions in the handling  of such claims or assume the handling of such claims in the name of Macquarie, all at the  Company’s cost and expense; provided that Macquarie may require that the Company  assume the handling of any such claim.  To the extent that the Company believes that any  claim should be made by Macquarie for the account of the Company against any third party  (whether a Third Party Supplier, terminal facility, pipeline, storage facility or otherwise),  

 

  53  13585990v13  and subject to Section 5.10(d), Macquarie shall take any commercially reasonable actions  as requested by the Company either directly, or by allowing the Company to do so, to  prosecute such claim all at the Company’s cost and expense and all recoveries resulting  from the prosecution of such claim shall be for the account of the Company.

In no event may Macquarie settle any such claim  without the Company’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably  conditioned, delayed or withheld.  In the event that Macquarie has a claim or cause of  action arising under any Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract that  Macquarie declines to pursue or prosecute, then Macquarie shall, upon written request of  the Company, to the extent possible through the use of commercially reasonable efforts  either assign such claim or cause of action to the Company, or designate the Company as  Macquarie’s limited agent, so at to facilitate the Company’s ability to pursue or prosecute  such claim.   (d) Disputes Subject to Indemnification Provisions.  In addition, any claim that  is or becomes subject to Article 21 shall be handled and resolved in accordance with the  provisions of Article 21.  5.11 Ancillary Contracts.  Prior to entering into any Ancillary Contract that is intended  for the exclusive benefit of the Company in connection with this Agreement and does not by its  terms expire or terminate on or before the Expiration Date, Macquarie shall endeavor, in good  faith and subject to any confidentiality restrictions, to afford the Company an opportunity to review  and comment on such Ancillary Contract or the terms thereof and to confer with the Company  regarding such Ancillary Contract and terms, and if Macquarie enters into any such Ancillary  Contract without the Company’s written consent, the Company shall not be obligated to assume  such Ancillary Contract pursuant to Section 20.1(c) below.  5.12 Communications Regarding Nominations and Deliveries.

  54  13585990v13  calculation of the Monthly True-Up Amounts as provided for on Schedule C-2, and Macquarie  shall provide interim invoice statements (subject to the Monthly True-Up Amount) to the Company  during each month based on provisional prices (determined using the index price for the day plus  the applicable differential agreed in advance for such month) established in good faith by  Macquarie for Barrels purchased.   6.3 [Reserved]  6.4 Material Permitted Feedstock Grade Changes.  If either the Company or Macquarie  concludes in its reasonable judgment that the specifications of the Permitted Feedstock procured,  or projected to be procured, differ materially from the grades that have generally been run by the  Refinery or such grades that the Company may run from time to time acting as a prudent renewable  fuel refinery operator, then the Company and Macquarie shall endeavor in good faith to mutually  agree on (i) acceptable price indices for such Permitted Feedstock, and (ii) a settlement payment  from one Party to the other that is sufficient to compensate the relevant Party for the relative costs  and benefits to each of the price differences between the prior price indices and the amended price  indices.    6.5 Counterparty Permitted Feedstock Sales.  At the written request of the Company  and subject to the applicable provisions of Article 5 above, Macquarie may from time to time enter  into one or more Counterparty Permitted Feedstock Sales.  In such cases, the Counterparty  Permitted Feedstock Sales Fee shall be applicable to such Counterparty Permitted Feedstock Sales,  and shall be payable by the Company to Macquarie hereunder; provided, however, such  Counterparty Permitted Feedstock Sales Fee shall not be applicable to any other disposition of  Permitted Feedstock made by Macquarie hereunder or under the Transaction Documents.  6.6 Supporting Documentation.  Upon Macquarie’s written request, the Company shall  provide documentation evidencing all Other Barrels.  6.7 Monthly Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment.  For each month (or portion  thereof) during the term of the Agreement, Macquarie shall determine whether an amount is due  by one Party to the other for Counterparty Permitted Feedstock Sales by Macquarie at the direction  of the Company to a counterparty other than the Company, (a “Monthly Permitted Feedstock Sale  Adjustment”) in accordance with the following terms and conditions:  (a) Macquarie shall determine the aggregate quantity of Barrels of Permitted  Feedstock sold during such period under such Counterparty Permitted Feedstock Sales,  and Macquarie shall provide interim invoice statements (subject to adjustment in the  Monthly Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment contemplated in this Section 6.7) to the  Company during each month based on provisional prices (determined using the index price  for the day plus the applicable differential agreed in advance for such month) established  in good faith by Macquarie for such Barrels sold during such period;   (b) If, (i) the Aggregate Permitted Feedstock Sale Receipt exceeds the Index  Permitted Feedstock Sale Value, then the Monthly Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment  for that Permitted Feedstock shall equal such excess and shall be due to the Company and  (ii) the Index Permitted Feedstock Sale Value exceeds the Aggregate Permitted Feedstock  

 

  55  13585990v13  Sale Receipt, then the Monthly Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment for that Permitted  Feedstock shall equal such excess and shall be due to Macquarie; and  (c) If Macquarie determines that any Monthly Permitted Feedstock Sale  Adjustment is due, it shall include its calculation of such amount in the documentation  provided to the Company for the relevant period pursuant to Section 10.2 and such Monthly  Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment shall be incorporated as a component of the Monthly  True-Up Amount due for such period which, if due to the Company, shall be expressed as  a negative number and, if due to Macquarie, shall be expressed as a positive number.   6.8 Monthly Third Party Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment.  For each month (or  portion thereof) during the term of the Agreement, Macquarie shall determine whether an amount  is due by one Party to the other with respect to the sale of Permitted Feedstock at the Permitted  Feedstock Delivery Point to a third party by Macquarie at the direction of the Company, (a  “Monthly Third Party Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment”) in accordance with the following  terms and conditions:   (a) Macquarie shall determine the aggregate quantity of Barrels of Permitted  Feedstock sold during such period under such third party sales, and Macquarie shall  provide interim invoice statements (subject to adjustment in the Monthly Third Party  Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment contemplated in this Section 6.8) to the Company  during each month based on provisional prices (determined using the index price for the  day plus the applicable differential agreed in advance for such month) established in good  faith by Macquarie for such Barrels sold during such period;   (b) If (i) the Aggregate Third Party Permitted Feedstock Sale Receipt exceeds  the Index Third Party Permitted Feedstock Sale Value, then the Monthly Third Party  Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment for that Permitted Feedstock shall equal such excess  and shall be due to the Company and (ii) the Index Third Party Permitted Feedstock Sale  Value exceeds the Aggregate Third Party Permitted Feedstock Sale Receipt, then the  Monthly Third Party Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment for that Permitted Feedstock  shall equal such excess and shall be due to Macquarie; and  (c) If Macquarie determines that any Monthly Third Party Permitted Feedstock  Sale Adjustment is due, it shall include its calculation of such amount in the documentation  provided to the Company for the relevant period pursuant to Section 10.2 and such Monthly  Third Party Permitted Feedstock Sale Adjustment shall be incorporated as a component of  the Monthly True-Up Amount due for such period which, if due to the Company, shall be  expressed as a negative number and, if due to Macquarie, shall be expressed as a positive  number.     TARGET INVENTORY LEVELS AND DIFFERENTIAL ADJUSTMENT  7.1 Target Inventory Levels.  Monthly inventory targets for Permitted Feedstock and  Renewable Products shall be set pursuant to this Article 7.  Such monthly inventory targets for  Permitted Feedstock and Renewable Products shall be subject to the minimum and maximum  

 

  56  13585990v13  inventory levels set forth in Schedule D for each Pricing Group, which minimum inventory levels  shall be satisfied by the procurement of Permitted Feedstock and Renewable Products in  accordance with the terms hereof.  The Company represents and warrants that the respective Target  Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volumes and Target Month-End Renewable Product Volumes  that the Company sets for each month during the Term hereof shall be the Company’s good faith  estimate (which is not a guarantee of actual performance), at the time it sets such targets, of the  Ending In-Tank Permitted Feedstock Inventory and the Ending In-Tank Renewable Product  Inventory at the end of such month.  7.2 Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volume.  (a) Projected Monthly Run Volume. By no later than the fifteenth (15th) day of  the month preceding each Delivery Month, the Company shall notify Macquarie of the  aggregate quantity of Permitted Feedstock that the Company expects to run at the Refinery  during such Delivery Month (the “Projected Monthly Run Volume”).  Macquarie shall  have the right to reject any Projected Monthly Run Volume; provided, however, that in the  event Macquarie does not reject the same within one (1) Business Day after receiving the  Projected Monthly Run Volume, Macquarie shall be deemed to have accepted the same. In  the event Macquarie timely rejects any Projected Monthly Run Volume, the Parties will  meet not later than the following Business Day to agree upon a mutually agreeable  alternative.    (b) Constraints on Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volume.  In  establishing a Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volume, the Parties acknowledge  that any increase in a Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volume is constrained to the  extent that (i) the Permitted Feedstock available for delivery under the Macquarie  Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contracts with Third Party Suppliers, plus (ii) Other  Barrels available for delivery during such month are not intended to be greater than the  Company’s Permitted Feedstock requirements for the Refinery for the month related to  such Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volume.  (c) Adjustments to Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volume.  The  Parties may, by mutual agreement, adjust the Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock  Volume for any month.  Any change to a Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volume  shall affect only the subject month and does not impact the calculation of the Target Month- End Permitted Feedstock Volume in subsequent months.  7.3 Target Month-End Renewable Product Volume.  (a) [Reserved]   (b) Target Month-End Renewable Product Volume; Applicable Range.  Subject  to events of Force Majeure, facility turnarounds, the performance of any third parties  (including purchasers of Renewable Products under the Marketing and Sales Agreement),  the Company shall, in establishing each Target Month-End Renewable Product Volume,  use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Target Month-End Renewable Product  

 

  57  13585990v13  Volume to be within the applicable range specified for such Renewable Product on  Schedule D.  (c) Changes to Target Month-End Renewable Product Volume.  At any time  prior to the beginning of the month to which a Target Month-End Renewable Product  Volume relates, the Parties may, by mutual agreement, change such Target Month-End  Renewable Product Volume.  (d) Target Month-End Renewable Product Volume Adjusted for Additional  Renewable Product Transactions.  For any month in which quantities of Renewable  Products are delivered by Macquarie under one or more Additional Renewable Product  Transactions entered into during such month pursuant to the Marketing and Sales  Agreement, the Target Month-End Renewable Product Volume of any such Renewable  Product for the end of such month shall be reduced by the aggregate net quantity of such  Renewable Product so delivered to the extent such Additional Renewable Product  Transactions are entered into after such Target Month-End Renewable Product Volume is  established.  7.4 Differential Adjustments.  Promptly following each Differential Adjustment  Month, Macquarie shall review the data for such Differential Adjustment Month and calculate  whether, based on such data, an adjustment to any of the Permitted Feedstock or Renewable  Product Differentials is appropriate; provided that, if Macquarie or the Company determines in its  reasonable judgment that the data for such Differential Adjustment Month do not provide a  representative basis for such determination (due to anomalies, distortions or other factors identified  by Macquarie), such Party shall propose an adjusted Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Product  Differentials.  In the event the Parties mutually agree to the proposed adjusted Permitted Feedstock  or Renewable Product Differentials, the same shall become applicable commencing with the  month immediately following such Differential Adjustment Month; provided, however, that in the  event no such mutual agreement is made, the Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Product  Differentials set forth on Schedule B will continue to apply. The Permitted Feedstock or  Renewable Product Differentials shall be updated as set forth on Schedule B on the first (1st)  Business Day of the Differential Adjustment Month, unless otherwise mutually agreed to by the  Parties.   7.5 [Reserved]   7.6 [Reserved]  7.7 Monthly Cover Costs.  (a) Monthly Renewable Products Cover Costs. If, for any month (or portion  thereof), Macquarie reasonably determines that, as a result of the Company’s failure to  produce the quantities of Renewable Product projected under this Agreement or the  Company’s failure to comply with its obligations under the Marketing and Sales  Agreement, regardless of how caused (including any event of Force Majeure), Macquarie  retains insufficient quantities of Renewable Product to comply with its obligations to any  third parties, under Included Sales Transactions, and Macquarie incurs any additional costs  

 

  58  13585990v13  and expenses or related damages in procuring and transporting Renewable Product from  other sources for purposes of covering such delivery obligations or the shortfall in the  quantity held for its account (collectively, “Monthly Renewable Products Cover Costs”),  then the Company shall be obliged to reimburse Macquarie for such Monthly Renewable  Products Cover Costs.  If Macquarie determines that any Monthly Renewable Products  Cover Costs are due to it, Macquarie shall promptly communicate such determination to  the Company and, subject to any mitigation of such costs actually achieved by the  Company, include the calculation of such amount in the documentation provided to the  Company for the relevant period pursuant to Section 10.2 and such Monthly Renewable  Products Cover Costs shall be incorporated as a component of the Monthly True-Up  Amount due for such period hereunder.  If, for any month (or portion thereof), Macquarie  determines that, as a result of the Company’s failure to produce the quantities of Renewable  Product projected under this Agreement or the Company’s failure to comply with its  obligations under the Marketing and Sales Agreement, Macquarie retains insufficient  quantities of Renewable Product to comply with its obligations to the Company, under any  Company Agreements or otherwise pursuant to Section 2.6 of the Marketing and Sales  Agreement, the Company shall be solely responsible for covering any delivery obligations  to third parties or the shortfall in the quantity held for such third parties in connection with  the Company’s Renewable Product Marketing Operations (as defined in the Marketing and  Sales Agreement) or otherwise.   (b) Monthly Permitted Feedstock Cover Costs. If, for any month (or portion  thereof), Macquarie reasonably determines that, as a result of the Company’s failure to sell  Macquarie the quantities of Refinery Procured Permitted Feedstock Barrels projected  under this Agreement, regardless of how caused (including any event of Force Majeure),  Macquarie retains insufficient quantities of Permitted Feedstock to comply with its  obligations to any third parties and Macquarie incurs any additional out of pocket costs and  expenses or related damages in procuring and transporting Permitted Feedstock from other  sources for purposes of covering such delivery obligations or the shortfall in the quantity  held for its account (collectively, “Monthly Permitted Feedstock Cover Costs”), then the  Company shall be obliged to reimburse Macquarie for such Monthly Permitted Feedstock  Cover Costs.  If Macquarie determines that any Monthly Permitted Feedstock Cover Costs  are due to it, Macquarie shall promptly communicate such determination to the Company  and, subject to any mitigation of such costs actually achieved by the Company, include the  calculation of such amount in the documentation provided to the Company for the relevant  period pursuant to Section 10.2 and such Monthly Permitted Feedstock Cover Costs shall  be incorporated as a component of the Monthly True-Up Amount due for such period  hereunder.  If, for any month (or portion thereof), Macquarie determines that, as a result of  the Company’s failure to sell Macquarie the quantities of Refinery Procured Permitted  Feedstock Barrels projected under this Agreement, Macquarie retains insufficient  quantities of Permitted Feedstock to comply with its obligations to Company, the Company  shall be solely responsible for covering any delivery obligations to third parties or  Company.  7.8 Costs Related to Shortfall.    

 

  59  13585990v13  (a) Costs Related to Shortfall of Renewable Product. To the extent that  Macquarie is required to cover, pursuant to an Included Sales Transaction, any shortfall in  any Renewable Product delivery, which shortfall arises as a result of the failure by the  Company to produce, store or deliver when due such Renewable Product of the correct  quality and quantity, using any inventory Macquarie owns and acquires separately from  the inventory owned and maintained in connection with this Agreement, regardless of how  caused (including any event of Force Majeure), any out of pocket cost or loss (excluding  lost profits) incurred by Macquarie in connection therewith that is not otherwise included  as a Monthly Renewable Product Cover Cost shall constitute an Ancillary Cost that is to  be reimbursed to Macquarie.   (b) Costs Related to Shortfall of Permitted Feedstock. To the extent that  Macquarie is required to cover, under a transaction with Company or a third party, any  shortfall in any Permitted Feedstock delivery, which shortfall arises as a result of the failure  by the Company to store or deliver when due Permitted Feedstock of the correct quality  and quantity, using any inventory Macquarie owns and acquires separately from the  inventory owned and maintained in connection with this Agreement, regardless of how  caused (including any event of Force Majeure), any out of pocket cost or loss (excluding  lost profits) incurred by Macquarie in connection therewith that is not otherwise included  as a Monthly Permitted Feedstock Cover Cost shall constitute an Ancillary Cost that is to  be reimbursed to Macquarie.   7.9 Excess Target Levels.  No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date on  which the Company is obligated to establish the Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volume  or the Target Month-End Renewable Product Volumes for any month, the Company may request  that Macquarie agree to a level for any of the foregoing that exceeds that applicable maximum  level set forth on Schedule D (an “Excess Inventory Level”); provided that such request may be  for only such month or for a period of two (2) or more consecutive months starting with such  month, as the Company shall specify in its request.  If such request is made in a timely manner,  Macquarie shall promptly review such request and advise the Company as to whether Macquarie  accepts or rejects such Excess Inventory Level; provided that Macquarie is under no obligation to  accept any such request.  If Macquarie accepts any request for an Excess Inventory Level, then for  all purposes of this Agreement and in lieu of the relevant level set forth on Schedule D, such Excess  Inventory Level shall constitute the maximum inventory level for the relevant Renewable Product  Group for the period specified in such request; provided that, after such period, the applicable level  set forth on Schedule D shall be in effect for purposes of this Agreement.  If Macquarie rejects any  such request, then the applicable level set forth on Schedule D shall continue in effect, unless  otherwise expressly agreed by the Parties in writing.  7.10 Excess Inventory Levels.  (a) Excess Quantity.  If, at any time, either Party determines, with respect to  any Renewable Product Group, that the aggregate quantity of such Renewable Product  Group being held in the Included Locations or the Specified Company Locations exceeds  the maximum inventory level set forth on Schedule D for such Renewable Product Group  in the Included Locations or the Specified Company Locations (such excess, an “Excess  Quantity”), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence and volume of  

 

  60  13585990v13  such Excess Quantity.  Within three (3) Business Days after such notice is given,  Macquarie shall advise the Company as to whether Macquarie accepts such Excess  Quantity (in which case Section 7.10(b) shall apply) or rejects such Excess Quantity (in  which case Section 7.10(c) shall apply).   (b) Response for Excess Quantity.   If Macquarie accepts an Excess Quantity  then, for all purposes of this Agreement, such Excess Quantity shall constitute the  maximum Excess Inventory Level for the relevant Renewable Product Group for the  Included Locations or the Specified Company Locations (as the case may be) for the  balance of the month in which such Excess Quantity was first identified and, at  Macquarie’s option, for such additional month or months as Macquarie may specify;  provided that if Macquarie does not accept such Excess Quantity for any additional month  or months, such Excess Quantity shall only be in effect for the then current month and if  such Excess Quantity remains after the end of such current month, the provisions of this  Section 7.10 shall apply anew as of the beginning the following month.  (c) Disposal of Excess Quantity.  If Macquarie rejects an Excess Quantity then,  for purposes of determining amounts due under Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of this Agreement,  such Excess Quantity shall not be counted as Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Products  being held at an Included Location or Specified Company Location.  In such case, if the  Company is able to segregate in one or more Included Tanks or tanks at Specified Company  Locations a quantity of the relevant Renewable Product Group at least equal to such Excess  Quantity, the Company may, at its option, elect to designate such Included Tanks or other  tanks and purchase from Macquarie the segregated quantity of such Renewable Product  Group held in such designated Included Tanks so that the quantity of such Renewable  Product Group owned by Macquarie (in the case of an Excess Quantity relating to the  Included Location) would not exceed the applicable maximum inventory level set forth on  Schedule D for the relevant Renewable Product Group for the Included Locations or the  Specified Company Locations (as the case may be) after giving effect to such purchase or  removal, at a price or value determined pursuant to the applicable provisions of Article 10.   After settlement of such purchase or removal, such Included Tanks shall no longer  constitute Included Locations or such other tanks shall no longer constitute Specified  Company Locations for purposes hereof unless and until Macquarie determines, in its  reasonable discretion, that Macquarie’s ownership of the quantities held in such tanks  would not result, as of the time of such determination, in the aggregate quantity of the  relevant Renewable Product Group owned by Macquarie exceeding the applicable  maximum inventory level set forth on Schedule D.  If and when such determination is  made, the Parties shall confirm the sale by the Company to Macquarie of the quantities  held in such Included Tanks at the prices or values that would then apply to additional  volumes under Article 10 hereof and upon the settlement of such purchase or inclusion,  such Included Tanks or other tanks shall thereafter again constitute Included Locations or  Specified Company Locations for all purposes hereof.   

 

  61  13585990v13     PURCHASE AND DELIVERY OF RENEWABLE PRODUCTS  8.1 Purchase and Sale of Renewable Products.  (a) Macquarie Purchase of Renewable Products. Macquarie agrees to purchase  and receive from the Company, and the Company agrees to sell and deliver to Macquarie,  the entire Renewable Products output of the Refinery from and including the Effective Date  through the end of the Term of this Agreement, at the Current Month Pricing  Benchmark(s), subject to the calculation of the Monthly True-Up Amounts as provided for  on Schedule C-2, and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this  Agreement.   (b) Included Renewable Product Purchase Transaction.  From time to time,  under the Marketing and Sales Agreement, the Company may propose that Macquarie enter  into an Included Renewable Product Purchase Transaction with an identified Renewable  Product Supplier.  Such proposal and Macquarie’s acceptance and rejection of such  proposal shall be made pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Marketing and Sales Agreement.  (c) Refinery Procured Renewable Product Barrels. No later than the fifteenth  (15th) day of the month preceding a Delivery Month, the Company shall inform Macquarie  whether the Company has purchased or intends to purchase any Renewable Product that is  being procured under a Refinery Renewable Product Contract for delivery during such  Delivery Month (“Refinery Procured Renewable Product Barrels”).  In connection with  each such quantity of Refinery Procured Renewable Product Barrels, the Company shall  provide to Macquarie a trade ticket stating the quantity, grade and delivery terms of such  Refinery Procured Renewable Product Barrels expected to be delivered to the Refinery  Renewable Product Storage Tanks or such other Included Renewable Product Location  designated by the Company during such Delivery Month and, provided no Default or Event  of Default with respect to the Company has occurred and is then continuing, such quantity  satisfies the approved grade, and such quantity does not exceed the maximum inventory  level for such Renewable Products set forth on Schedule D, Macquarie shall purchase such  quantity from the Company on a “FOB” destination basis at Current Month Pricing  Benchmark(s), subject to the calculation of the Monthly True-Up Amounts as provided for  on Schedule C-2, and title and risk of loss for such quantity shall pass to Macquarie as and  when it passes the Renewable Product Intake Point free and clear of all Liens.  If any  change occurs in the quantity, grade or delivery terms of the Refinery Procured Renewable  Product Barrels that the Company expects to procure for delivery during such month, the  Company shall promptly advise Macquarie of such change.  The Parties acknowledge that  the consideration due from Macquarie to the Company for any Refinery Procured  Renewable Product Barrels shall be paid for in accordance with Article 10.    8.2 Sale and Purchase of Renewable Products.   (a) Sale of Renewable Products from Company to Macquarie.  Unless  otherwise agreed by Macquarie, all Renewable Products shall be delivered and sold by the  Company to Macquarie at the Renewable Product Intake Point of the Refinery Renewable  

 

  62  13585990v13  Product Storage Tanks or any other Included Renewable Product Tanks (as the case may  be) on a DDP (Incoterms 2010) basis at the Current Month Pricing Benchmark(s), subject  to the calculation of the Monthly True-Up Amounts as provided for on Schedule C-2, free  and clear of all Liens, with the Company being responsible for ensuring transportation and  delivery of such Renewable Product into the Refinery Renewable Product Storage Tanks  or any other Included Renewable Product Tanks (as the case may be).  Title and risk for  loss shall transfer from the Company to Macquarie at the time of such sale (subject to the  obligations of the Company and applicable Facilities Operator Affiliates to handle such  products with due care while in their care, custody and control).    (b) Sale of Renewable Products by Macquarie to the Company.  Provided no  Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Macquarie shall be permitted to sell and  the Company shall be permitted to purchase Renewable Products from the Refinery  Renewable Product Storage Tanks and the Company shall take delivery of such Renewable  Products at any Renewable Product Delivery Point in accordance with the Weekly  Renewable Products Projection, or as otherwise mutually agreed to by the Parties.  Though  not obligated to do so, Macquarie shall, absent an Event of Default, use commercially  reasonable efforts to sell Renewable Products to the Company before selling to another  Person.  The sale and delivery of any Renewable Products by Macquarie to the Company  at the Renewable Product Delivery Point shall be on an “ex works” basis (EXW Incoterms  2010) at the Current Month Pricing Benchmark(s), subject to the calculation of the Monthly  True-Up Amounts as provided for on Schedule C-2, free of Liens, other than Permitted  S&O Liens.  Upon such sale of Renewable Products, title and risk of loss will transfer to  the Company.  The Company shall bear sole responsibility for the withdrawal of  Renewable Products from the Refinery Renewable Product Storage Tanks.  The Company  shall take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to maintain a connection with the  Refinery Renewable Product Storage Tanks to enable the withdrawal and delivery of  Renewable Products as contemplated hereby.  The Parties understand and agree that after  such title transfer to the Company, the Company may sell such Renewable Product to one  or more third parties pursuant to one or more Company Agreements in the Company’s sole  and absolute discretion.  (c) Sale of Renewable Products by Macquarie to Third Party.  Macquarie shall  not be required to enter into any transactions involving the sale of Renewable Products to  any third party until the Company has established, to Macquarie’s satisfaction, procedures  and mechanisms for determining and reporting the specific volumes that are from time to  time subject to each such Renewable Products sale transaction.  Macquarie’s acceptance  or rejection of any proposed third party Renewable Products sales transaction shall be  subject to the applicable provisions of the Marketing and Sales Agreement.  8.3 Expected Yield and Estimated Output; Weekly Renewable Products Projection.  (a) Estimated Yield.  From time to time, based on its then current operating  forecast for the Refinery, the Company may provide to Macquarie a revised expected  Renewable Product yield for the Refinery (each, a “Revised Estimated Yield” and, together  with the Initial Estimated Yield, an “Estimated Yield”).  

 

  63  13585990v13  (b) Monthly Renewable Product Estimate.    (i) No later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the month preceding a  Delivery Month, the Company shall, based on the then current Estimated Yield and  such other operating factors as it deems relevant, prepare and provide to Macquarie  an estimate in the form of Schedule DD of the Renewable Product quantities it  expects to deliver to Macquarie during such Delivery Month (each, a “Monthly  Renewable Product Estimate”).  (ii) Macquarie shall have the right to reject any Monthly Renewable  Product Estimate; provided, however, that in the event Macquarie does not reject  the same within one (1) Business Day after receiving the Monthly Renewable  Product Estimate, Macquarie shall be deemed to have accepted the same. In the  event Macquarie timely rejects any Monthly Renewable Product Estimate, the  Parties will meet not later than the following Business Day to agree upon a mutually  agreeable alternative.    (c) Weekly Renewable Products Projection.  No later than 5:00 p.m., EST on  Thursday of each week, the Company shall provide Macquarie with a written summary in  the form of Schedule K of the Company’s projected Renewable Product purchases from  Macquarie at the Refinery Renewable Product Storage Tanks for the next immediately  succeeding Projection Week (each, a “Weekly Renewable Product Projection”). Macquarie  shall have the right to reject any Weekly Renewable Product Projection; provided,  however, that in the event Macquarie does not reject a Weekly Renewable Product  Projection by 5:00 pm EST on the next day (Friday), Macquarie shall be deemed to have  accepted the same.  In the event Macquarie timely rejects any Weekly Renewable Product  Projection, the Parties will meet not later than the following Business Day to agree upon a  mutually agreeable alternative.    8.4 Delivered Quantities.  (a) Readings.  For each Delivery Date, the Company shall provide to  Macquarie, by no later than 12:00 p.m. EST on the first Business Day following such  Delivery Date, meter tickets and/or meter readings and tank gauge readings confirming the  Measured Renewable Product Quantity in each Included Renewable Product Tank for each  Renewable Product delivered during that Delivery Date and other such relevant  information including but not limited to Renewable Product identifiers and the location of  Renewable Products, aggregated on a Renewable Product Group basis.   (b) Correction of Readings.  If the Company determines that any meter tickets  and/or meter readings and tank gauge readings provided pursuant to clause (a) above are  inaccurate, the Company shall provide to Macquarie such corrected meter tickets and/or  meter readings and tank gauge readings by no later than 12:00 noon EST on the third (3rd)  Business Day following the date on which such determination is made.  8.5 Custody.  During the time any Renewable Products (i) are held in any Refinery  Facilities or Included Renewable Products Pipeline, the Company shall, and shall cause the  

 

  64  13585990v13  Facilities Operator Affiliates to, in their capacities as operator of such Refinery Facilities or  Included Renewable Products Pipeline, be solely responsible for the care, custody and control of  such Renewable Products and shall, and shall cause the Facilities Operator Affiliates to, be solely  responsible for compliance with all Applicable Laws, including all Environmental Laws,  pertaining to the possession, handling, use and processing of such Renewable Products and (ii) are  held in any Refinery Renewable Product Storage Tanks and all other Included Renewable Product  Tanks, the Company shall, and shall cause the Facilities Operator Affiliates to, as and to the extent  provided in Article 21 (and subject thereto in all respects), jointly and severally, indemnify and  hold harmless Macquarie, its Affiliates and their agents, representatives, contractors, employees,  directors and officers, for all Liabilities directly or indirectly arising therefrom except to the extent  such Liabilities are caused by or attributable to any of the matters for which Macquarie is  indemnifying the Company pursuant to Article 21.  8.6 Renewable Product Specifications. The Company agrees that all Renewable  Products sold to Macquarie hereunder shall conform to the Renewable Fuel Standard or the Low  Carbon Fuel Standard and to the respective specifications set forth on Schedule A or to such other  specifications as are from time to time agreed upon by the Parties, provided that Renewable  Products that do not conform to the Renewable Fuel Standard or the Low Carbon Fuel Standard  or such specifications shall be subject to mutual agreement as to a Renewable Product differential  to reflect such difference in values, in each case, including as such standards relate to and are  applicable to the relevant Environmental Attributes.   8.7 Purchase Price of Renewable Products.  The per Barrel purchase price for the Daily  Renewable Product Sales and Daily Renewable Product Purchases for each type of Renewable  Product Group bought or sold hereunder shall equal the Current Month Pricing Benchmark  specified for such Renewable Product Group, subject to the Monthly True-Up Amount calculations  provided for on Schedule C-2.  8.8 [Reserved]   8.9 Storage of Renewable Products. Macquarie shall have the exclusive right (to the  extent that such exclusive right can be granted, and except to the extent otherwise expressly  contemplated in Section 7.10) to inject into, store in and withdraw Renewable Products from the  Refinery Renewable Product Storage Tanks and all other Included Renewable Product Tanks as  provided under the Storage Facilities Agreement and, if hereafter entered into, any Required  Storage and Transportation Arrangements.   8.10 Material Renewable Product Grade Changes.  If either the Company or Macquarie  concludes in its reasonable judgment that a Renewable Product does not meet either the Renewable  Fuel Standard or the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, including as relates to and as applicable to the  relevant Environmental Attribute, or that the specifications or the mix of the constituents of a  Pricing Group produced, or projected to be produced, differ materially from those that have  generally been produced by the Refinery or those that the Company may produce from time to  time acting as a prudent refinery operator, then the Company and Macquarie shall endeavor in  good faith to mutually agree on (i) acceptable price indices for such Renewable Product, and (ii) a  settlement payment from one Party to the other sufficient to compensate the relevant Party for the  

 

  65  13585990v13  relative costs and benefits to each of the price differences between the prior price indices and the  amended price indices.  8.11 Monthly Adjustments.   (a) Monthly Renewable Product Sale Adjustment.  For each month (or portion  thereof) during the term of the Marketing and Sales Agreement and for each Renewable  Product Group, Macquarie shall determine whether an amount is due by one Party to the  other (for each Renewable Product Group, (a “Monthly Renewable Product Sale  Adjustment”) in accordance with the following terms and conditions:  (i) For each Renewable Product Group and relevant period, Macquarie  shall determine the aggregate quantity of Barrels of such Renewable Product Group  sold during such period under Included Sales Transactions, and Macquarie shall  provide interim invoice statements (subject to adjustment in the Monthly  Renewable Product Sale Adjustment contemplated below) to the Company during  each month based on provisional prices (determined using the index price for the  day plus the applicable differential agreed in advance for such month) established  in good faith by Macquarie for Barrels sold during such period;  (ii) If, for any Renewable Product Group and relevant period, (i) the  Aggregate Renewable Product Sale Receipt exceeds the Index Renewable Product  Sale Value, then the Monthly Renewable Product Sale Adjustment for that  Renewable Product Group shall equal such excess and shall be due to the Company  and (ii) the Index Renewable Product Sale Value exceeds the Aggregate Renewable  Product Sale Receipt, then the Monthly Renewable Product Sale Adjustment for  that Renewable Product Group shall equal such excess and shall be due to  Macquarie; and  (iii) If Macquarie determines that any Monthly Renewable Product Sale  Adjustment is due, it shall include its calculation of such amount in the  documentation provided to the Company for the relevant period pursuant to  Section 10.2 and such Monthly Renewable Product Sale Adjustment shall be  incorporated as a component of the Monthly True-Up Amount due for such period  which, if due to the Company, shall be expressed as a negative number and, if due  to Macquarie, shall be expressed as a positive number.  (b) Monthly Renewable Product Purchase Adjustment.  For each month (or  portion thereof) during the term of the Marketing and Sales Agreement and for each  Renewable Product Group, Macquarie shall determine whether an amount is due by one  Party to the other (for each Renewable Product Group, (a “Monthly Renewable Product  Purchase Adjustment”) in accordance with the following terms and conditions:  (i) For each Renewable Product Group and relevant period, Macquarie  shall determine the aggregate quantity of Barrels of such Renewable Product Group  purchased during such period under Included Renewable Product Purchase  Transactions, and Macquarie shall provide interim invoice statements (subject to  

 

  66  13585990v13  adjustment in the Monthly Renewable Product Purchase Adjustment contemplated  below) to the Company during each month based on provisional prices (determined  using the index price for the day plus the applicable differential agreed in advance  for such month) established in good faith by Macquarie for Barrels purchased;   (ii) If, for any Renewable Product Group and relevant period, (i) the  Aggregate Renewable Product Purchase Proceeds exceeds the Index Renewable  Product Purchase Value, then the Monthly Renewable Product Purchase  Adjustment for that Renewable Product Group shall equal such excess and shall be  due to Macquarie and (ii) the Index Renewable Product Purchase Value exceeds  the Aggregate Renewable Product Purchase Proceeds, then the Monthly Renewable  Product Purchase Adjustment for that Renewable Product Group shall equal such  excess and shall be due to the Company;  and  (iii) If Macquarie determines that any Monthly Renewable Product  Purchase Adjustment is due, it shall include its calculation of such amount in the  documentation provided to the Company for the relevant period pursuant to  Section 10.2 and such Monthly Renewable Product Purchase Adjustment shall be  incorporated as a component of the Monthly True-Up Amount due for such period  which, if due to the Company, shall be expressed as a negative number and, if due  to Macquarie, shall be expressed as a positive number.  8.12 Monthly Renewable Product Sales Fees.  For each month, the applicable  Renewable Product Sales Fee shall be applied to each Barrel of Renewable Product, if any, sold  by Macquarie under any Included Sales Transaction during such month.  With respect to each  month, the aggregate monthly value of the Renewable Product Sales Fees (the “Aggregate  Monthly Renewable Product Sales Fee”) shall be due and payable from the Company to Macquarie  as a component of the Monthly True-Up Amount.      ANCILLARY COSTS; MONTH-END INVENTORY; CERTAIN DISPOSITIONS;  TANK MAINTENANCE; CERTAIN REGULATORY MATTERS  9.1 Ancillary Costs.  (a) The Parties agree that, to the maximum extent reasonably practicable, the  Company shall pay directly any item that would constitute an Ancillary Cost.  The Parties  shall cooperate and endeavor in a commercially reasonable manner to arrange for all such  items to be billed directly to the Company and for the payee of such item to expect payment  of such item solely from the Company.  (b) Without limiting the foregoing, the Company agrees to reimburse  Macquarie for all Ancillary Costs incurred by Macquarie.  Such reimbursement shall occur  from time to time upon demand of Macquarie to the Company.  When making such  demand, Macquarie shall promptly provide the Company with copies of any relevant trade  tickets, invoices or other supporting documentation for Ancillary Costs incurred by  Macquarie.  

 

  67  13585990v13  (c) To the extent the Company has not paid or reimbursed Macquarie for any  Ancillary Costs then outstanding and payable with respect to any month or any adjustments  or refunds have occurred with respect to any Ancillary Costs previously paid or  reimbursed, Macquarie may include in the Monthly True-Up Amount for such month as a  separate line item on the applicable Monthly True-Up Amount invoice an amount to  compensate the Parties, as appropriate, for such items.  (d) From time to time upon the reasonable request of either Party, the Parties  shall consult to assess whether (i) Ancillary Costs actually being incurred are consistent  with the expectations of the Parties and  the terms of this Agreement, (ii) procedures for  paying, handling or otherwise dealing with Ancillary Costs can be improved or should be  modified, (iii) documentation relating to substantiation of Ancillary Costs is sufficient and  (iv) in any other respect the processing of Ancillary Costs hereunder can or improved or  modified.  9.2 Month-End Inventory.  (a) Ending Inventory.    (i) By 12:00 p.m. EST on the first Business day of any Delivery Month,  the Company, using Best Available Inventory Data, provided that if such inventory  data is not available, using the last day for which such data is available, shall report  to Macquarie the following: (i) the aggregate volume of Permitted Feedstock held  in the Included Permitted Feedstock Storage Tanks at that time (the “Ending In- Tank Permitted Feedstock Inventory”), (ii) the aggregate amount of Permitted  Feedstock held in Specified Company Locations at that time (the “Ending Specified  Company Locations Permitted Feedstock Inventory”), (iii) for each Renewable  Product, the aggregate volume of such Renewable Product held in the Included  Renewable Product Locations at that time (each, an “Ending In-Tank Renewable  Product Inventory”) and (iv) for each Renewable Product, the aggregate volume of  such Renewable Product held in the Specified Company Locations at that time  (each, an “Ending Specified Company Locations Renewable Product Inventory”).   (ii)  As of 11:59:59 p.m., EST, on the last day of each month, the  Company shall apply the Volume Determination Procedures to the Included  Locations, and based thereon shall determine for such month (i) the aggregate  volume of Permitted Feedstock held in the Included Permitted Feedstock Storage  Tanks at that time, (ii) the aggregate amount of Permitted Feedstock held in  Specified Company Locations at that time, (iii) for each Renewable Product, the  aggregate volume of such Renewable Product held in the Included Renewable  Product Locations at that time and (iv) for each Renewable Product, the aggregate  volume of such Renewable Product held in the Specified Company Locations at  that time.  The Company shall notify Macquarie of such volumes by no later than  5:00 p.m., EST on the fifth Business Day thereafter, except that with respect to  volume information provided by third parties, the Company shall endeavor to cause  third parties to provide such information to Macquarie by the fifteenth (15th) day  after the end of such month.  

 

  68  13585990v13  (b) Inspection of Volume Determination Procedures.  Macquarie may, or may  have Macquarie’s Inspector, at Macquarie’s sole cost and expense, witness all or any  aspects of the Refinery Facilities or Included Renewable Products Pipeline as Macquarie  shall direct.  If, in the reasonable judgment of Macquarie or Macquarie’s Inspector, the  Volume Determination Procedures have not been applied correctly, then the Company  shall cooperate with Macquarie, or Macquarie’s Inspector, to ensure the correct application  of the Volume Determination Procedures, including making such revisions to the Ending  In-Tank Permitted Feedstock Inventory, Ending Specified Company Locations Permitted  Feedstock Inventory, any Ending In-Tank Renewable Product Inventory and any Ending  Specified Company Locations Renewable Product Inventory as may be necessary to  correct any such errors.  (c) Records Related to Volume Determination.  The Company agrees that in  addition to reporting to Macquarie the volume determinations made by the Company  pursuant to Section 9.2(a), the Company shall provide to Macquarie copies of all volume  reports and statements related to Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Products held at any  Included Locations or Specified Company Locations or with respect to any Renewable  inventories held by the Company at any other locations including any inventory, quantity,  or quality inspection reports prepared by a third party.  9.3 [Reserved]   9.4 Disposition Following Force Majeure.  (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if Macquarie decides or is  required, due to an event of Force Majeure affecting either Party or otherwise, to sell to  any unrelated third parties, in arm’s length transactions, any quantities of Permitted  Feedstock that, based on the then current Monthly Permitted Feedstock Forecast or Weekly  Permitted Feedstock Projection, Macquarie would reasonably have expected to have sold  to the Company (any quantity of Permitted Feedstock so disposed of by Macquarie being  referred to as a “Disposed Quantity”), then the Company shall be obligated to pay to  Macquarie an amount equal to the difference between the price at which such Disposed  Quantity would have been sold to the Company, minus the amount realized in the sale to a  third party (the “Disposition Amount”); provided, however, prior to Macquarie making any  such disposition and provided that no Event of Default with respect to the Company has  occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have a period equal to the lesser of (i) ten  (10) Business Days from the occurrence of such Force Majeure event or (ii) the remaining  time period before an event of default would occur under the contracts relevant to the  Disposed Quantity as a result of such Force Majeure event, in which to sell or transfer such  Disposed Quantity on commercially reasonable terms and conditions acceptable to  Macquarie.  In no event shall the Disposed Quantity exceed aggregate amount of Permitted  Feedstock required for the projected refinery operations during and following an event of  Force Majeure based on projections mutually agreed to by the Parties.  (b) In connection with its selling any Disposed Quantity, Macquarie shall  promptly determine the Disposition Amount and issue to the Company an invoice for such  amount. The Company shall pay to Macquarie the invoiced amount no later than the second  

 

  69  13585990v13  Business Day after the date of such invoice.  If, in connection with the sale of any Disposed  Quantity, the Disposition Amount is a negative number, then Macquarie shall pay the  amount of such excess to the Company no later than the second Business Day after the date  of such invoice.  (c) In connection with any disposition by Macquarie permitted by this Section  9.4, Macquarie shall endeavor, in good faith, to consult with the Company regarding, and  keep the Company apprised of Macquarie’s negotiations relating to, such disposition so  long as, in Macquarie’s commercially reasonable judgment, doing so does not materially  and adversely affect Macquarie’s ability to execute such disposition in an expeditious and  reasonably efficient manner.  9.5 Tank and Pipeline Maintenance.  (a) Promptly after the Company completes its annual business plan with respect  to any year, it shall notify Macquarie of any tank or pipeline maintenance contemplated  with respect to such year that would result in any Included Permitted Feedstock Storage  Tanks, Included Renewable Product Tanks, Included Renewable Product Pipelines or  Included Permitted Feedstock Pipelines being unavailable.  (b) The Company shall notify Macquarie orally (followed by prompt written  notice) in the case of any Included Permitted Feedstock Storage Tank, Included Renewable  Product Tanks or Included Renewable Product Pipeline, as soon as practicable after the  Company has actual knowledge of any previously unscheduled downtime.  (c) The Company shall provide to Macquarie at least thirty (30) days’ prior  written notice of any scheduled maintenance that the Company and/or any of its Affiliates  intends to conduct on any of the Included Permitted Feedstock Storage Tanks or the  Included Renewable Product Tanks that would result in such storage tank being taken out  of service for a period greater than thirty (30) days (“Tank Maintenance”).  (d) In connection with any Tank Maintenance, the Parties shall promptly  consult and endeavor to agree on adjusted inventory minimum and maximum levels and  other appropriate adjustments hereunder that are to apply during the period of such Tank  Maintenance, if deemed necessary by the Parties.  (e) The Company agrees that it shall use its best efforts, consistent with good  industry standards and practices, to complete (and to cause any third parties to complete)  any Tank Maintenance as promptly as practicable.  The Company shall provide Macquarie  with an initial estimate of the period of any Tank Maintenance and shall regularly update  Macquarie as to the progress of such Tank Maintenance.  If, the Company determines that  the expected completion date for Tank Maintenance has or is likely to change by thirty (30)  days or more, it shall promptly notify Macquarie of such determination.  9.6 Certain Regulatory Matters.    (a) If Macquarie shall determine, in its reasonable judgment, that as a result of  (i) the adoption or taking effect of any Applicable Law, (ii) any change in Applicable Law  

 

  70  13585990v13  or in the administration, interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental  Authority, (iii) the making or issuance of any request, guideline or directive (whether or  not having the force of law) by any Governmental Authority or (iv) any interpretation of  or proposal to implement any of the foregoing (each, a “Regulatory Event”), Macquarie is  or would (A) not be permitted to hold or own all or certain types of Permitted Feedstock  and/or Renewable Products, (B) be unable to perform in any material respect its obligations  under this Agreement and/or the other Transaction Documents or (C) were it to continue  to hold or own such Permitted Feedstock and/or Renewable Product or perform such  obligations, be or likely to be subject to additional or increased burdens or costs, then it  shall notify the Company in writing of such determination and the Parties shall promptly  consult in good faith to determine and assess what actions or steps, if any, either Party or  both Parties could implement to alleviate, minimize and/or mitigate the effect of any such  Regulatory Event.  If the Parties identify actions or steps that, in Macquarie’s reasonable  judgment, can be implemented without resulting in Macquarie incurring any additional  costs, expenses hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents while preserving the  economic terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents  (including economic benefits, risk allocation, costs and liabilities), then the Parties shall,  in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, endeavor to implement such  actions and steps.  If the Parties are unable to identify such actions or steps or are unable  to implement any actions and steps that have been so identified, then Macquarie may, so  long as such Regulatory Event continues, by written notice to the Company, elect to  terminate this Agreement in the manner provided for in Article 20 on such date Macquarie  shall specify in such notice, which date shall constitute a Termination Date for purposes of  Article 20; provided however, that (unless such Regulatory Event has or is expected to  become mandatorily effective at an earlier date, in which event termination shall be  effective at such earlier date) the date specified in such notice shall occur at least 120 days  after the date such notice is delivered to the Company and if practicable on the last day of  a month.  (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, following the occurrence  of a Regulatory Event Macquarie may, in its sole discretion, elect to propose to modify this  Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions subject hereto and  thereto so that Macquarie shall not be the owner of any Renewables held at Included  Locations and that instead all Renewables held at Included Locations shall constitute  Renewables Credit Support and all Included Locations shall constitute Specified Company  Locations, and if Macquarie makes such election, then the Company shall (and shall cause  its Affiliates (other than Qualified Owners) and third parties to) execute such amendments  and modifications to the Transaction Documents, take such other actions and execute and  deliver such ancillary documents (including acknowledgments, consents and waivers) as  are necessary and appropriate in Macquarie’s judgment to implement such alternative  structure; provided however, that (i) the Company shall not be obligated to execute such  amendments and modifications and to take such actions unless such alternative structure  as implemented preserves, in all material respects, the economic terms in effect prior to the  execution of such implementation, including the pricing and minimum inventory levels  applicable to those new Specified Company Locations that were previously Included  Locations, and (ii) the Company may elect, in response to Macquarie’s proposed election  to convert to an all Renewables Credit Support transaction (with no owned Renewables)  

 

  71  13585990v13  as described above, to terminate this Agreement in accordance with  Article 20, such  termination to be effective as provided in any written notice delivered by the Company to  Macquarie.  (c) In the event that either the Company or Macquarie elects, based on the  occurrence of a Regulatory Event, to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section  9.6, then for purposes of such termination the Specified Termination Amount shall be equal  to zero.     PAYMENT PROVISIONS  10.1 Interim Payments.  (a) Macquarie Interim Payments.  For each Delivery Day, Macquarie shall  calculate a provisional payment (each a “Macquarie Interim Payment”) by applying the  applicable Daily Prices to the Daily Permitted Feedstock Purchases and Daily Renewable  Product Purchases for that day, using Best Available Inventory Data; provided that if  inventory data have not been reported on any day within a two (2) Business Day period,  Macquarie shall use the inventory data for the day occurring during the thirty (30) day  period preceding such day that results in the smallest Daily Permitted Feedstock Purchases  and the smallest Daily Renewable Product Purchases (as the case may be), in any case  resulting in an amount equal to the smallest daily amount that would be payable to  Macquarie; provided  further that, if Macquarie determines (including without limitation  after receipt of updated Best Available Inventory Data) that any inventory data it has used  in such determination was inaccurate, then Macquarie shall adjust future Macquarie  Interim Payments to take account of any corrected inventory data, and Macquarie shall  notify the Company of such adjustment when made.  (b) Company Interim Payments.    (i) Company Interim Permitted Feedstock Payments.   (A) Company Interim Procurement Contract Permitted  Feedstock Payment. For each day, Macquarie shall calculate a provisional  payment (each a “Company Interim Procurement Contract Permitted  Feedstock Payment”) by applying the applicable Macquarie Procurement  Barrels Price to the Daily Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract Sales  for that day, using the measurement data taken at the applicable Macquarie  Delivery Point.  If Macquarie determines that any data it has used was  inaccurate, then Macquarie shall adjust future Company Interim  Procurement Contract Permitted Feedstock Payments to take account of any  corrected data, and Macquarie shall notify the Company of such adjustment  when made.   (B) Company Interim Tank Permitted Feedstock Payment. For  each day, Macquarie shall calculate a provisional payment (each a  “Company Interim Tank Permitted Feedstock Payment”) by applying the  

 

  72  13585990v13  applicable Daily Prices to the Daily Permitted Feedstock Tanks Sales for  that day, using Best Available Inventory Data; provided that if inventory  data have not been reported on any day within a two (2) Business Day  period, Macquarie shall use the inventory data for the day occurring during  the thirty (30) day period preceding such day that results in the largest Daily  Permitted Feedstock Tanks Sales, in any case resulting in an amount equal  to the highest daily amount that would be payable to Macquarie; provided  further that, if Macquarie determines (including without limitation after  receipt of updated Best Available Inventory Data) that any inventory data it  has used in such determination was inaccurate, then Macquarie shall adjust  future Company Interim Tank Permitted Feedstock Payments to take  account of any corrected inventory data, and Macquarie shall notify the  Company of such adjustment when made.  (ii) Company Interim Renewable Product Payments. For each day,  Macquarie shall calculate a provisional payment (each a “Company Interim   Renewable Product Payment”) by applying the applicable Daily Prices to the Daily  Renewable Product Sales for that day, using Best Available Inventory Data;  provided that if inventory data have not been reported on any day within a two (2)  Business Day period, Macquarie shall use the inventory data for the day occurring  during the thirty (30) day period preceding such day that results in the largest Daily  Renewable Product Sales, in any case resulting in an amount equal to the highest  daily amount that would be payable to Macquarie; provided further that, if  Macquarie determines that any inventory data it has used in such determination was  materially inaccurate, then Macquarie shall adjust future Company Interim   Renewable Product Payments to take account of any corrected inventory data, and  Macquarie shall notify the Company of such adjustment when made.  (c) The Company shall, at the end of each day, provide to Macquarie inventory  reports in the form set forth on Schedule H, showing the quantity of (i) Permitted Feedstock  held in the Included Permitted Feedstock Locations, (ii) Permitted Feedstock that is  Company Permitted Feedstock Inventory, (iii) Renewable Products held in the Included  Renewable Product Locations and (iv) Renewable Products that are Company Renewable  Product Inventory.  (d) Invoices for Interim Payments.  For any Business Day, the Interim  Payments and the Party responsible for such Interim Payments shall be determined by  Macquarie for all Delivery Dates since the prior Business Day and Macquarie shall advise  the Company of the amount of Interim Payments via invoice.  Each invoice will contain a  breakdown of the applicable Renewable Product Groups.   (e) Payment Due Dates of Interim Payments.  Subject to Section 10.1(i), the  Interim Payment shall be made by the responsible Party on the Business Day that follows  the day Macquarie issues the applicable invoice.   

 

  73  13585990v13  (f) Deferred Payment.  Company shall be allowed to defer payment of the  Company Interim Tank Permitted Feedstock Payments up to the Available Deferred  Payment Amount subject to the following:    (i) Any Company Interim Tank Permitted Feedstock Payments  deferred by Company shall be due on the twentieth (20th) day of the Delivery Month  (or such other day as agreed to in writing between Macquarie and the Company  from time to time) following the day Macquarie delivers to the Company the  applicable invoice.  (ii) In the event that on any given Business Day there is a Company  Deferred Deficit, Company shall pay to Macquarie the Company Deferred Deficit  on the next succeeding Business Day following the date that the Company receives  from Macquarie written notice of such Company Deferred Deficit.  (iii) In the event of a termination of the Agreement or a continuing Event  of Default, (A) Company shall no longer be permitted to defer any further Company  Interim Tank Permitted Feedstock Payments and (B) any Company Interim Tank  Permitted Feedstock Payments deferred under this Section 10.1(f) shall  immediately become due and payable and be paid to Macquarie on the next  succeeding Business Day following the date that Macquarie notifies the Company  of the amount due on account of the foregoing.  (g) In the event that Company is purchasing more Renewable Products or  Permitted Feedstock than was projected under the applicable Target Month-End  Renewable Product Volume or Target Month-End Permitted Feedstock Volume,  Macquarie shall have the right to request that Company make a true-up payment within  two (2) Business Days of delivering to the Company written notice of such payment being  due.  (h) Daily Environmental Attributes Pricing Adjustment. For each day during  the Term, Macquarie shall calculate the Daily Environmental Attribute Pricing Adjustment  for that day as more particularly described in Schedule C-3. Macquarie will provide to the  Company a calculation and appropriate documentation to support the calculation of the  Daily Environmental Attribute Pricing Adjustment for each such day. The Daily  Environmental Attribute Pricing Adjustment is a component of the Interim Payments and  will be invoiced by Macquarie and paid by the applicable Party in accordance with this  Section 10.1.   10.2 Monthly True-Up Amount.   (a) Macquarie shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the  Company, within five (5) Business Days following receipt of the Ending In-Tank Permitted  Feedstock Inventory and the Ending In-Tank Renewable Product Inventory pursuant to  Section 9.2, a calculation and appropriate documentation to support the calculations for  such month contemplated in the Transaction Documents for the Monthly True-Up Amount  as set forth in Schedule C-2.    

 

  74  13585990v13  (b) If the Monthly True-Up Amount is a negative number, then the absolute  value of such number shall be the amount due from Macquarie to the Company, and if the  Monthly True-Up Amount is a positive number, such amount shall be due from the  Company to Macquarie.  The Company shall pay any undisputed portion of the Monthly  True-Up Amount due to Macquarie no later than the two (2) Business Days after the  Company’s receipt of the monthly invoice and all related documentation supporting the  invoiced amount.  Macquarie shall pay any undisputed portion of the Monthly True-Up  Amount due to the Company no later than two (2) Business Days after making its definitive  determination of such amount.  10.3 Maximum Inventory Levels.  Notwithstanding any transfer of title to Macquarie to  any Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Products or the quantity of any Eligible Renewables  Inventory in a Specified Company Location, Macquarie shall not be obligated at any time to pay  for any quantity of Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Product under Section 10.1 or 10.2 or  otherwise hereunder to the extent such payment would relate to an aggregate quantity of Permitted  Feedstock or such Renewable Products in the Included Locations and Specified Company  Locations in excess of the then applicable maximum inventory level as set forth on Schedule D or  as may have been temporarily adjusted under Section 7.9.  In the event that Permitted Feedstock  or Renewable Products or the quantity of any Eligible Renewables Inventory in a Specified  Company Location exceeds the maximum inventory level as set forth on Schedule D, Macquarie  will hold title to all Barrels of Permitted Feedstock and Renewable Products located in Included  Permitted Feedstock Storage Tanks and the Included Renewable Product Tanks at the time without  making payment for the same, and the Company will dispose of such Barrels of Permitted  Feedstock and Renewable Products as soon as reasonably possible.   10.4 Invoices.

The Parties shall cooperate in  resolving the dispute expeditiously.  If the Parties agree that the Company does owe some  or all of the disputed amount or as may be determined by a court pursuant to Article 25,  the Company shall pay such amount to Macquarie, together with interest at the Fed Funds  Rate from the date such amount was originally due, within two (2) Business Days from, as  appropriate, the date of their agreement or the date of the final, non-appealable decision of  such court.  Following resolution of any such disputed amount, Macquarie shall issue a  corrected invoice and any residual payment that would be required thereby shall be made  by the appropriate Party within two (2) Business Days.  

 

  75  13585990v13  10.5 Other Feedstocks.  If Macquarie procures non-Permitted Feedstock feedstocks for  the Company to run at the Refinery, the Parties shall agree in connection with such procurement  upon terms for incorporating the purchase of such feedstocks into the daily and monthly  settlements contemplated by Section 10.1 and 10.2 above.  10.6 Interest.  Interest shall accrue on late payments under this Agreement at the Default  Interest Rate from the date that payment is due until the date that payment is actually received by  Macquarie.  10.7 Payment in Full in Same Day Funds.  All payments to be made under this  Agreement shall be made by wire transfer of same day funds in U.S. dollars to such bank account  at such bank as the payee shall designate in writing to the payor from time to time.       ELIGIBLE RENEWABLES INVENTORY  11.1 Eligible Renewables Inventory Reporting.  (a) By no later than 4:00 p.m. EST on each Business Day, the Company shall  provide to Macquarie, via email, a report in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to  Macquarie as illustrated in Schedule H (the “Inventory Report”) showing the inventory  quantities that then constitute Eligible Renewables Inventory, including the quantity and  location of each type of inventory.  (b) Macquarie may also exclude from such report any Renewables that  Macquarie, in its reasonable judgment, determines in good faith do not constitute Eligible  Renewables Inventory.  (c) By delivering an Inventory Report, the Company shall be deemed to  represent and warrant to Macquarie (to the same extent as if set forth in this Agreement)  that all Renewables identified as Eligible Renewables Inventory in such report meet all the  requirements of Eligible Renewables Inventory set forth in this Agreement.     INDEPENDENT INSPECTORS; STANDARDS OF MEASUREMENT  12.1 Macquarie shall be entitled to have Macquarie’s Inspector, at Macquarie’s sole cost  and expense, present at any time the Volume Determination Procedures are to be applied in  accordance with the terms of this Agreement and to observe the conduct of Volume Determination  Procedures.  The foregoing notwithstanding, the reasonable out of pocket costs, of the initial  surveying by an independent inspector of the Company’s facilities, shall be paid by the Company.  12.2 In addition to its rights under Section 12.1, Macquarie may, from time to time  during the Term of this Agreement, upon reasonable prior notice to the Company, have  Macquarie’s Inspector conduct surveys and inspections of any of the Included Tanks or observe  any Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Product transmission, handling, metering or other activities  being conducted at such Included Tanks or the Delivery Points; provided that (a) such surveys,  inspections and observations shall not materially interfere with the ordinary course of business  

 

  76  13585990v13  being conducted at such Included Tanks or the Refinery, and (b) while no limit exists on the  number of times that Macquarie may conduct surveys and inspections hereunder, Macquarie  anticipates that such inspections or surveys will likely be only once each month during first six  month period of the Term of this Agreement, and once during each calendar quarterly period  thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Macquarie reserves the right to conduct inspections  once each calendar month, and (ii) the Company shall only cover the reasonable costs of one  inspection every six month s, unless Macquarie, by written notice to the Company, notes  deficiencies in the Company’s application of customary industry practices that have caused a need  for additional inspections to be conducted at the cost of the Company. Furthermore, the Company  shall promptly provide Macquarie with a copy of any inspection report that the Company provides  to its auditors.  12.3 In the event that recalibration of meters, gauges or other measurement equipment  is requested by Macquarie such as “strapping,” the Parties shall select a mutually agreeable  certified and licensed independent petroleum inspection company (the “Independent Inspection  Company”) to conduct such recalibration.  The cost of the Independent Inspection Company is to  be shared equally by the Company and Macquarie.  12.4 Standards of Measurement.  All quantity determinations herein shall be corrected  to sixty (60) degrees Fahrenheit based on a U.S. gallon of two hundred thirty one (231) cubic  inches and forty two (42) gallons to the Barrel, in accordance with the latest supplement or  amendment to ASTM-IP petroleum measurement tables (Table 6A of ASTM-IP for Permitted  Feedstock and Table 6B of ASTM-IP for Renewable Products).

  80  13585990v13  (such policies and procedures to be in reasonable accordance with and not to exceed  industry, regulatory and customary practices) relating to the prudent maintenance and  operation of storage tanks, pipeline facilities, vessels and other infrastructure used to store  or transport Permitted Feedstock and/or Renewable Products (“Macquarie’s Policies and  Procedures”), and without limiting any other rights and remedies available to Macquarie  hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, Macquarie may provide the Company  notice of such failure so long as such failure is continuing and, if Macquarie provides such  notice, the following provisions shall be applicable:   (i)  in the case of any Identified Facilities that are subject to the Storage  Facility Agreement, upon such date as Macquarie shall specify, but not less than  two hundred seventy (270) days after the date such notice is delivered to the  Company (so as to allow to the Company time to remedy the non-compliance or  other failure or to find substitute financial arrangements), such Identified Facilities  shall cease to constitute an Included Location (or part of an Included Location) for  purposes hereof and any payment to Macquarie in respect of any Permitted  Feedstock or Renewable Products held in such Identified Facilities shall, unless  such failure has been cured to the reasonable satisfaction of Macquarie, become  due in accordance with the provisions of Article 10 hereof; and   (ii)  in the case of any Identified Facilities that are subject to a Required  Storage and Transportation Arrangement, the Parties shall endeavor, within not  more than two hundred seventy (270) days after the date such notice is delivered to  the Company (so as to allow to the Company time to remedy the non-compliance  or other failure or to find substitute financial arrangements), to execute such rights,  provide such notices, negotiate such reassignments or terminations and/or take such  further actions as Macquarie deems necessary or appropriate to terminate  Macquarie’s status as the party entitled to use and/or hold Permitted Feedstock or  Renewable Products at such Identified Facilities and, concurrently with effecting  the termination of such status, such Identified Facilities shall cease to constitute an  Included Location (or part of an Included Location) for purposes hereof and any  payment to Macquarie in respect of any Permitted Feedstock or Renewable  Products held in such Identified Facilities shall become due in accordance with the  provisions of Article 10 hereof.  (b) Macquarie’s rights under Section 14.4(a) above are subject to the following  additional terms and conditions:  (i) Macquarie shall apply Macquarie’s Policies and Procedures with  respect to the Included Locations in a non-discriminatory manner as compared with  other similar storage tanks and pipeline facilities utilized by Macquarie in a similar  manner;  (ii) If the failure of any Identified Facilities to satisfy Macquarie’s  Policies and Procedures is a result of Macquarie’s Policies and Procedures  exceeding the standards or requirements imposed under Applicable Law or good  and prudent industry practice, then (1) Macquarie shall not require the removal of  

 

  81  13585990v13  such Identified Facilities as Included Locations until the 270th day after giving the  Company written notice of such failure, (2) during such 270 day period, Macquarie  shall consult with the Company in good faith to determine whether based on further  information provided by the Company such Identified Facilities comply with  Macquarie’s Policies and Procedures and/or whether additional actions or  procedures can be taken or implemented so that, as a result, such Identified  Facilities would comply with Macquarie’s Policies and Procedures, and (3) if it is  determined that such Identified Facilities do comply with Macquarie’s Policies and  Procedures or, as a result of such additional actions or procedures, such Identified  Facilities become so compliant within such 270 day period, then such Identified  Facilities shall not cease to be Included Locations based on the noncompliance  stated in Macquarie’s notice to the Company;  (iii) If within the 270 day period referred to in clause (ii)(2) above, the  Company has identified and diligently commenced the implementation of  additional actions or procedures that are intended to result in such Identified  Facilities becoming compliant with Macquarie’s Policies and Procedures, but such  implementation cannot through commercially reasonable efforts be completed  within such 270 day period, then so long as the Company continues to diligently  and in a commercially reasonable manner pursue the implementation of such  additional actions and procedures, Macquarie shall extend such 270 day period up  for up to an additional ninety (90) days (or such longer period as the Parties may  mutually agree) to allow for such implementation to be completed and if such  implementation is completed within such additional 90 day period (or such longer  period as the Parties may mutually agree), then such Identified Facilities shall not  cease to be Included Locations based on the noncompliance stated in Macquarie’s  notice to the Company; and  (iv) If any Identified Facilities cease to be Included Locations pursuant  to Section 14.4(a) above and thereafter Macquarie determines, in its reasonable  good faith judgment, that such Identified Facilities have become compliant with  Macquarie’s Policies and Procedures, then Macquarie shall promptly cooperate  with the Company to reestablish such Identified Facilities as Included Locations  hereunder.     TAXES  15.1 (a) The Company shall pay and indemnify and hold Macquarie harmless against,  the amount of all sales, use, value added, transfer, stamp, property, duties, ad valorem, or other  similar taxes, (but excluding all taxes imposed on or measured by net income or profits, all  franchise taxes, all branch profits taxes, and all U.S. federal withholding taxes, including U.S.  federal withholding tax imposed pursuant to FATCA), howsoever designated regardless of the  taxing authority, and all penalties and interest thereon, paid, owing, asserted against, or incurred  by Macquarie directly or indirectly with respect to the Permitted Feedstock procured and sold to  Company hereunder, and the Renewable Products purchased and resold to Company hereunder, ,  except to the extent any such taxes, penalties, or interest are due to the gross negligence or willful  

 

  82  13585990v13  misconduct of Macquarie or breach of the terms hereof by Macquarie (each indemnifiable tax is a  “Tax” and collectively are “Taxes”).  The Company shall pay when due such Taxes unless there  is an applicable exemption from such Taxes, in which case the Company shall provide written  confirmation of such Tax exemption or an exemption certificate to Macquarie.  To the extent  Macquarie is required by law to collect such Taxes from the Company, one hundred percent  (100%) of such Taxes shall be added to invoices as separately stated charges and paid in full by  the Company in accordance with this Agreement, unless the Company is exempt from such Taxes  and furnishes Macquarie with a certificate of exemption, and Macquarie shall timely pay the full  amount of such Taxes to the applicable taxing authority in accordance with applicable law.  Any  refund or credit with respect to any Taxes paid or indemnified by the Company hereunder shall  belong to the Company, and Macquarie shall promptly remit any such amounts that it receives to  the Company.  For the avoidance of doubt, Macquarie shall be responsible for all taxes imposed  on or measured by Macquarie’s net or gross (or any derivative thereof) income, and the Company  shall be responsible for all taxes imposed on or measured by the Company’s net or gross (or any  derivative thereof) income.   (b) In addition to paragraph (a), the Company shall complete and file all  necessary property tax returns on Macquarie’s behalf with respect to Permitted Feedstock  and Renewable Products that are the subject of this Agreement, regardless of whether  property tax laws place the obligation to do so upon Macquarie or the Company, disclose  Macquarie’s ownership interest therein, and pay such amounts as due.  Provided that the  Company pays (or indemnifies Macquarie for) all such property Taxes, the Company shall  have the first right to claim income tax credits or deductions for such property Taxes paid  and shall be solely responsible for the extent to which such credits or deductions are  available to or realized by the Company.  15.2 If the Company disagrees with Macquarie’s determination that any Tax is due with  respect to transactions under this Agreement, the Company shall have the right to seek an  administrative determination from the applicable taxing authority, or, alternatively, the Company  shall have the right to contest any asserted claim for such Taxes, subject to its agreeing to  indemnify Macquarie for the entire amount of such contested Tax should such Tax be deemed  applicable. Macquarie agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Company, in the event the  Company determines to contest any such Taxes. Company shall be responsible for all reasonable  out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by Company or Macquarie in the event Company  decides to seek an administrative determination from the applicable taxing authority or to contest  any such Taxes.  15.3 (a)The Company and Macquarie shall promptly inform each other in writing of any  assertion by a taxing authority of additional liability for Taxes in respect of the transactions under  this Agreement.  Any legal proceedings or any other action against Macquarie with respect to such  asserted liability shall be under Macquarie’s direction but the Company shall be kept reasonably  informed and consulted by Macquarie, provided that so long as the Company has sufficient  available liquidity (as reasonably determined by Macquarie), then the Company shall have the  option to assume the control and direction of any such legal proceedings or actions.  Any legal  proceedings or any other action against the Company with respect to such asserted liability for  Taxes shall be under the Company’s direction but Macquarie shall be consulted.  In any event, the  Company and Macquarie shall reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with any  

 

  83  13585990v13  asserted liability for Taxes by a taxing authority.  Each Party shall bear all the reasonable out of  pocket costs of any action undertaken by the other pursuant to this Section 15.3(a) at the Party’s  request.  (b) In addition to Section 15.3(a) and other information sharing requirements  applicable to Macquarie and the Company, Macquarie and the Company shall annually and  from time to time as is otherwise reasonable exchange and share information with each  other as necessary to properly report, defend, challenge, and pay Taxes (including but not  limited to sales taxes and file tax returns (including without limitation any returns referred  to in Section 15.1(b)), including information that supports and demonstrates total sales,  sales that are exempt from Tax, and sales that are subject to Tax at a reduced rate.   15.4 On or prior to the date of this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the  reasonable request of the Company), Macquarie shall deliver to the Company an executed original  of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Macquarie is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax,  and if such form expires or becomes obsolete in any respect, Macquarie shall provide an updated  form certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.  15.5 Any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Article  15 shall survive until ninety (90) days after the expiration of the statute of limitations for the  assessment, collection, and levy of any Tax.     INSURANCE  16.1 Insurance Coverages.  The Company shall procure and maintain in full force and  effect throughout the Term of this Agreement insurance coverages of the following types and  amounts and with insurance companies rated not less than A- by A.M.

(a) Property damage including business interruption coverage on an “all risk”  basis, including but not limited to flood, earthquake, windstorm, and tsunami, covering  damage to the Refinery Facilities and the Storage Facilities on a repair or replacement cost  basis in an amount sufficient to repair major components of such facilities. Business  interruption and extra expense coverage shall include at least 18 months indemnity period  and shall be in an amount equal to the projected net income plus costs that would  necessarily continue from such facilities based upon the Company’s reasonable estimate  thereof.  (b) Inventory coverage on an “all risk” basis, including but not limited to flood,  earthquake, windstorm, and tsunami, covering the loss, damage, destruction and/or theft of  Permitted Feedstock and the Refinery’s Renewable Products in an amount equal to the  market value or potential full replacement cost.  Such coverage may be incorporated into  the property insurance required in Section 16.1(a).   (c) Commercial general liability coverage which includes bodily injury, broad  form property damage and contractual liability, cross suit liability, Renewable Products  

 

  84  13585990v13  and completed operations liability, and sudden and accidental pollution liability, in a  minimum amount of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $4,000,000 in the aggregate.  (d) (i) Workers compensation in the amount required by Applicable Law, and  (ii) employer’s liability with a minimum amount of $1,000,000 per accident, $1,000,000  per disease, and $1,000,000 aggregate.

No  action by Macquarie to obtain such additional liability coverage shall be deemed (i) a  waiver of the Company’s obligation to obtain any such additional liability coverage or (ii)  an agreement or obligation of Macquarie to obtain such additional liability coverage.  For  the avoidance of doubt, such reimbursement obligations shall constitute Transaction  Obligations hereunder until paid by the Company.  (g) Stock throughput coverage providing coverage with respect to Permitted  Feedstock and Renewable Product in a minimum aggregate amount of $100,000,000.  16.2 Additional Insurance Requirements.  (a) The foregoing policies in Section 16.1 and the policies described in Section  16.2(e), in each case, shall include or provide that the underwriters waive all rights of  subrogation against Macquarie and the insurance is primary without contribution from  Macquarie’s insurance. The foregoing policies in Section 16.1 and the policies described  in Section 16.2(e) shall, in each case, include (i) Macquarie as additional insured (other  than for insurance under Schedule 16.1(g)) and (ii) Macquarie as loss payee under Sections  16.1(b) and (g) and 16.2(e) only.  (b) The Company shall cause its insurance carriers or its authorized insurance  broker to furnish Macquarie with insurance certificates, in Acord form or equivalent, and  copies of the applicable insurance policies evidencing the existence of the coverages and  the endorsements required above and in Section 16.2(e) below; provided that,  notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall provide an insurance certificate, in  

 

  85  13585990v13  Acord form, with respect to the insurance coverage under Section 16.1(g) within five days  of the Effective Date.  The Company shall provide thirty (30) days’ written notice prior to  cancellation or material modification of insurance becoming effective.  The Company also  shall provide renewal certificates and updated copies of each applicable insurance policy  prior to expiration of any such policy.

(f) Within five days after the end of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the  fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2022, the Company shall provide a written statement  to Macquarie, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Macquarie, confirming that  the applicable foregoing insurance policies are in full force and effect and that such policies  are in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement, including this Article 16  hereof, detailing any changes made to such insurance policies since the last written  statement was delivered, and providing a representation that the Company is in compliance  with all of the insurance requirements under and with respect to this Agreement and the  other Transaction Documents.  16.3 No Reduction or Release.  The mere purchase and existence of insurance does not  reduce or release either Party from any liability incurred or assumed under this Agreement.     FORCE MAJEURE  17.1 If a Party is rendered unable by an event of Force Majeure to perform in whole or  in part any obligation or condition of this Agreement (the “Affected Party”), it shall not be liable  to the other Party to perform such obligation or condition (except for payment and indemnification  obligations) for so long as the event of Force Majeure exists and to the extent that performance is  hindered by such event of Force Majeure; provided, however, that the Affected Party shall use any  commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove the event of Force Majeure.  During the period  that performance by the Affected Party of a part or whole of its obligations has been suspended by  reason of an event of Force Majeure, the other Party (the “Non-Affected Party”) likewise may  suspend the performance of all or a part of its obligations to the extent that such suspension is  commercially reasonable, except for any payment and indemnification obligations.  The Parties  acknowledge that if, as a result of a Force Majeure, the Company were to suspend its receipt and/or  

 

  86  13585990v13  processing of Permitted Feedstock, then Macquarie would be entitled to suspend, to a comparable  extent, its purchasing of Renewable Products.  17.2 The Affected Party shall give prompt oral notice to the Non-Affected Party of its  declaration of an event of Force Majeure, to be followed by written notice within twenty-four (24)  hours after receiving such oral notice of the occurrence of a Force Majeure event, including, to the  extent feasible, the details and the expected duration of the Force Majeure event and the volume  of Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Products affected.  The Affected Party also shall promptly  notify the Non-Affected Party when the event of Force Majeure is terminated.  However, the  failure or inability of the Affected Party to provide such notice within the time periods specified  above shall not preclude it from declaring an event of Force Majeure.  17.3 In the event the Affected Party’s performance is suspended due to an event of Force  Majeure in excess of thirty (30) consecutive days after the date that notice of such event is given,  and so long as such event is continuing, the Non-Affected Party, in its sole discretion, may  terminate or curtail its obligations under this Agreement affected by such event of Force Majeure  (the “Affected Obligations”) by giving notice of such termination or curtailment to the Affected  Party, and neither Party shall have any further liability to the other in respect of such Affected  Obligations to the extent terminated or curtailed, except for the rights and remedies previously  accrued under this Agreement, any payment and indemnification obligations by either Party under  this Agreement and the obligations set forth in Article 20.  Without limiting any rights of any Non- Affected Party under this Article 17, the parties agree that following notice of an event of Force  Majeure, they shall consult in good faith to assess potential actions or steps with respect thereto.  17.4 If any Affected Obligation is not terminated pursuant to this Article 17 or any other  provision of this Agreement, performance shall resume to the extent made possible by the end or  amelioration of the event of Force Majeure in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;  provided, however, that the term of this Agreement shall not be extended.  17.5 The Parties acknowledge and agree that the right of Macquarie to declare a Force  Majeure based upon any failure by a Third Party Supplier to deliver Permitted Feedstock under a  Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract is solely for purposes of determining the  respective rights and obligations as between Macquarie and the Company with respect to any  Permitted Feedstock delivery affected thereby, and any such declaration shall not excuse the  default of such Third Party Supplier under one or more Macquarie Permitted Feedstock  Procurement Contracts.  Any claims that Macquarie may have as a result of such Third Party  Supplier’s failure shall be subject to Section 5.10 and any other applicable provisions of this  Agreement relating to claims against third parties.  17.6 If at any time during the Term any of the Required Storage and Transportation  Arrangements cease to be in effect (in whole or in part) or any of the applicable Included  Renewable Product Pipelines or Included Renewable Product Tanks cease, in whole or in part, to  be available to Macquarie pursuant to the Required Storage and Transportation Arrangements, and  the foregoing is a result of or attributable to any owner or operator of such Included Renewable  Product Pipelines or Included Renewable Product Tanks becoming Bankrupt or breaching or  defaulting in any of its obligations relating to the Required Storage and Transportation  Arrangements, then:  

 

  87  13585990v13  (a) The Company shall promptly use commercially reasonable efforts to  establish for Macquarie’s benefit alternative and/or replacement storage and transportation  arrangements no less favorable to Macquarie (in Macquarie’s reasonable judgment) than  those that have ceased to be available;  (b) Until such alternative and/or replacement arrangements complying with  clause (a) above have been established, each Party shall be deemed to have been affected  by an event of Force Majeure and its obligations under this Agreement shall be curtailed  to the extent such performance is hindered by such lack of effectiveness of any Required  Storage and Transportation Arrangements or the availability of any pipeline or storage  facility related thereto; and  (c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in no event shall  Macquarie have any obligation under or in connection with this Agreement to store  Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Product in any pipeline or store Permitted Feedstock or  Renewable Product in any storage facility at any time from and after the owner or operator  thereof becomes Bankrupt. If any such storage facility is an Included Location then  Macquarie may, in its discretion, elect upon written notice to the Company that such  storage facility shall cease to be an Included Location as of a date specified in such written  notice in which case any Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Product held by Macquarie  therein shall be purchased by the Company in accordance with the applicable provisions  of Sections 10.1 and 10.2 hereof.

(h) If, in connection with the Company’s procurement of Permitted Feedstock  or Renewable Products from any third party (a “Company Sourcing Transaction”),  Macquarie enters into a Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract or an  Included Renewable Product Purchase Transaction with the Company to purchase such  Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Products from the Company and thereunder agrees to  make a prepayment to the Company for such Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Products,  then the Company covenants and agrees, with respect to such Company Sourcing  Transaction, that:  (i) the Company shall not request, make or agree to any modification  to the bill of lading issued under any Company Sourcing Transaction (including  without limitation any change to delivery location for the relevant shipment)  without Macquarie’s prior written consent; and  (ii) the funds prepaid by Macquarie to the Company under the related  Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract or Included Renewable  Product Purchase Transaction shall be used exclusively by the Company to make  payment to the seller under such Company Sourcing Transaction and the date by  which any prepayment from Macquarie is due to be made shall be fixed so that  promptly after the Company’s receipt of such funds it shall be required to remit the  same to the seller under such Company Sourcing Transaction or to post an  irrevocable letter of credit issued to the seller under such Company Sourcing  Transaction.

(a) Acceleration.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if  any Event of Default with respect to the Company, on the one hand, or Macquarie, on the  other hand (such defaulting Party, the “Defaulting Party”) has occurred and is continuing,  Macquarie (where the Company is the Defaulting Party) or the Company (where  Macquarie is the Defaulting Party) (such non-defaulting Party or Parties, the “Non- Defaulting Party”) may, without notice, (i) declare all of the Defaulting Party’s obligations  under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, all without presentment, demand,  protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Defaulting  Party and/or (ii) subject to Section 19.2(c), exercise any rights and remedies provided or  available to the Non-Defaulting Party under this Agreement, the other Transaction  Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC and as  provided under this Section 19.2.  

 

  99  13585990v13  (b) Termination/Settlement Amount.  Notwithstanding any other provision of  this Agreement, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the  Defaulting Party, the Non-Defaulting Party shall have the right, immediately and at any  time(s) thereafter, to terminate this Agreement (and any other contract or agreement that  may then be outstanding among the Parties that relates specifically to this Agreement,  including any Transaction Document) and, subject to Section 19.2(c), to liquidate and  terminate any or all rights and obligations under this Agreement and such other Transaction  Documents; provided that, in the event Macquarie is the Non-Defaulting Party, this  Agreement shall not be deemed to have terminated in full until Macquarie shall have (A)  disposed of all Permitted Feedstock and Renewable Products owned or maintained by  Macquarie in which Macquarie has lien or other rights in connection herewith, (B)  exercised in full all of its rights and remedies with respect to the Renewables Credit Support  and the other Credit Support and (C) received evidence satisfactory to Macquarie that the  Company has met all of its obligations and requirements under Section 20.1(a) and such  obligations and requirements shall have otherwise been satisfied in full; provided further  that the parties agree that solely for purposes of this sub clause (C), any reference to  “Termination Date” as set forth in Section 20.1(a) shall be a reference to any applicable  date(s) with respect to the completion of such foregoing obligations and requirements  under this Section 19.2(b).  The Settlement Amount (as defined below) shall be calculated  in a commercially reasonable manner based on such liquidated and terminated rights and  obligations and shall be payable by one Party to the other.  The “Settlement Amount” shall  mean (1) the amount, expressed in U.S. dollars, of losses and out of pocket costs that are  or would be incurred by the Non-Defaulting Party (expressed as a positive number) or gains  that are or would be realized by the Non-Defaulting Party (expressed as a negative number)  as a result of the liquidation and termination of all rights and obligations under this  Agreement and such other Transaction Documents and (2) solely to the extent that the  applicable Event of Default hereunder is due to a Change of Control that is not otherwise  permitted under, or entered into in accordance with, Section 3.3, the Specified Termination  Amount.  The determination of the Settlement Amount shall include (without duplication):  (x) the losses and out of pocket costs (or gains) incurred or realized (and determined in a  commercially reasonable manner) by the Non-Defaulting Party in terminating,  transferring, redeploying or otherwise modifying any outstanding Procurement Contracts,  (y) the losses and out of pocket costs (or gains) incurred or realized (and determined in a  commercially reasonable manner) by the Non-Defaulting Party in terminating and  liquidating any transactions subject hereto, including but not limited to, any unpaid  amounts owed pursuant to Section 10.1 and Section 10.2 herein and (z) all breakage costs,  losses and out of pocket costs (or gains) incurred or realized by the Non-Defaulting Party,  as a result of the Non-Defaulting Party’s terminating, liquidating, maintaining, obtaining  or reestablishing any Related Hedges, including Permitted Feedstock Hedges (including,  if Macquarie is the Non-Defaulting Party, all hedging transactions relating to the inventory  valuation adjustment procedures set forth in the Fees and Adjustments Letter); provided  however, that (i) the determination of “Settlement Amount” shall not include (aa) future  profits or losses on transactions not evidenced by a contractual obligation in existence on  the date of determination of “Settlement Amount” to purchase or sell Renewables, and (bb)  the Monthly Intermediation Fee, the Deferred Payment Amount Fee, the Inventory Capital  Fee, the Monthly Services Fee, the Environmental Attribute Value Capital Fee and the  

 

  100  13585990v13  “Monthly Facilities Fee” (as defined in the Storage Facilities Agreement) arising or  accruing after the date of calculation of Settlement Amount, and (ii) the foregoing shall not  exclude from “Settlement Amount” losses and out of pocket costs from Related Hedge,  including Permitted Feedstock Hedges, described in the foregoing clause (z).   (c) Determination of Settlement Amount.  The Settlement Amount shall be  determined by the Non-Defaulting Party, acting in good faith, in a commercially reasonable  manner.  The Non-Defaulting Party shall determine the Settlement Amount commencing  as of the date on which such termination occurs by reference to such futures, forward, swap  and options markets as it shall select in its commercially reasonable judgment; provided  that the Non-Defaulting Party is not required to effect such terminations and/or determine  the Settlement Amount on a single day, but rather may effect such terminations and  determine the Settlement Amount over a commercially reasonable period of time.  Without  limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that, for purposes of determining the  Settlement Amount, to the extent the Non-Defaulting Party deems it commercially  reasonable to do so, it may in referencing prices in the futures, forward, swap and options  markets for purposes of calculating various elements of the Settlement Amount endeavor  to align the dates as of which such reference prices are determined.  In calculating the  Settlement Amount, the Non-Defaulting Party shall discount to present value (in any  commercially reasonable manner based on prevailing SOFR rates for the applicable period  and currency) any amount which would be due at a later date and shall add interest (at a  rate determined in the same manner) to any amount due prior to the date of the calculation.  (d) Additional Rights of Macquarie.  Without limiting any other rights or  remedies hereunder, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Macquarie  is the Non-Defaulting Party, Macquarie may, in its discretion, (i) withhold or suspend its  obligations, including any of its delivery or payment obligations, under this Agreement or  any other Transaction Documents, (ii) withdraw from storage any and all of the Permitted  Feedstock and/or Renewable Products then in the Included Locations, (iii) otherwise  arrange for the disposition of any Permitted Feedstock and/or Renewable Products subject  to any outstanding Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract or Included  Renewable Product Purchase Transaction and/or the modification, settlement or  termination of such outstanding Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract or  Included Renewable Product Purchase Transaction in such manner as it elects, (iv)  liquidate in a commercially reasonable manner any credit support, margin or collateral, to  the extent not already in the form of cash (including applying any other margin or  collateral) and apply and set off such credit support, margin or collateral or the proceeds  thereof against any obligation owing by the Company or any of its Affiliates, including,  without limitation, Designated Affiliates, to Macquarie or any of its Affiliates, including,  without limitation, Designated Affiliates, (including without limitation the Independent  Amount), (v) foreclose any lien or security interest, and (vi) exercise its rights in respect  of any agreement or assignment of rights from a third party in respect of the transportation  or storage of the Company Renewable Product Inventory or the Company Permitted  Feedstock Inventory.  Macquarie shall be under no obligation to prioritize the order with  respect to which it exercises any one or more rights and remedies available hereunder.  The  Company shall in all events remain liable to Macquarie for any amount payable by the  

 

  101  13585990v13  Company in respect of any of its obligations remaining unpaid after any such liquidation,  application and set off.   (e) Company’s Rights.  Without limiting any other rights or remedies  hereunder, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Company is the  Non-Defaulting Party, the Company may, in its discretion, (i) withhold or suspend its  obligations, including any of its delivery or payment obligations, under this Agreement  and/or (ii) otherwise provide for the settlement or termination of the Parties’ outstanding  commitments hereunder, the sale in a commercially reasonable manner of Permitted  Feedstock and/or Renewable Product for Macquarie’s account, and the replacement of the  supply and offtake transaction contemplated hereby with such alternative arrangements as  it may procure.  (f) Net Liquidated Amount.  The Non-Defaulting Party shall set off (i) the  Settlement Amount (if due to the Defaulting Party), plus any performance security  (including any other margin or collateral) then held by the Non-Defaulting Party pursuant  to the Transaction Documents, plus (at the Non-Defaulting Party’s election) any or all other  amounts due to the Defaulting Party hereunder (including under Article 10), against (ii) the  Settlement Amount (if due to the Non-Defaulting Party), plus any performance security  (including any other margin or collateral) then held by the Defaulting Party, plus (at the  Non-Defaulting Party’s election) any or all other amounts due to the Non-Defaulting Party  hereunder (including under Article 10), so that all such amounts (including, for the  avoidance of doubt, the amount of any Independent Amount, inclusive of and giving effect  to the Permitted Intermediated Feedstock Inventory Valuation Adjustment, held by  Macquarie) shall be netted to a single liquidated amount payable by one Party to the other  (the “Liquidated Amount”).  The Party with the payment obligation shall pay the  Liquidated Amount to the applicable other Parties within one (1) Business Day after such  amount has been determined.  In addition, the Parties acknowledge that, in connection with  an Event of Default hereunder, the Step-out Inventory Sales Agreement may be terminated  and with respect thereto any rights and remedies available hereunder, under any other  agreement between the Parties hereto or the parties thereto, or at law or equity may be  exercised.  (g) No Abandonment of Rights.  No delay or failure on the part of the Non- Defaulting Party in exercising any right or remedy to which it may be entitled on account  of any Event of Default shall constitute an abandonment of any such right, and the Non- Defaulting Party shall be entitled to exercise such right or remedy at any time during the  continuance of an Event of Default.  (h) Rights Cumulative.  The Non-Defaulting Party’s rights under this  Section 19.2 shall be in addition to, and not in limitation or exclusion of, any other rights  which the Non-Defaulting Party may have (whether by agreement, operation of law or  otherwise), including any rights of recoupment, setoff, combination of accounts or other  rights under any credit support that may from time to time be provided in connection with  this Agreement or at law or in equity.  The Defaulting Party shall indemnify and hold the  Non-Defaulting Party harmless from all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses,  including reasonable attorney fees, incurred in the exercise of any remedies hereunder, as  

 

  102  13585990v13  and to the extent provided in Article 21 hereof, and subject to the limitations set forth  therein.  (i) Setoff.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Non- Defaulting Party may, without limitation on its rights under this Section 19.2, set off  amounts which the Defaulting Party owes to it against any amounts which it owes to the  Defaulting Party (whether hereunder, under any other contract or agreement or otherwise  and whether or not then due).  (j) Master Netting Agreement.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that this  Agreement is intended to be a “master netting agreement” as such term is defined in section  101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code.  As used in this Section 19.2, unless otherwise expressly  provided, each reference to “this Agreement” shall, and shall be deemed to, be a reference  to “this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.”  (k) Additional Master Netting and Setoff.  The Parties acknowledge and agree  that the Non-Defaulting Party has such additional netting and setoff rights as are provided  in any master netting agreement executed in connection herewith and expressly referencing  this Agreement.      SETTLEMENT AT TERMINATION  20.1 Procedures for Settlement at Termination.  Upon expiration or termination of this  Agreement for any reason other than as a result of an Event of Default (in which case the Expiration  Date or such other date as the Parties may agree shall be the “Termination Date”; provided that if  such date is not a Business Day, the Termination Date shall occur on the immediately preceding  Business Day), the Parties covenant and agree to proceed as provided in this Article 20; provided  that (x) this Agreement shall continue in effect following the Termination Date until all obligations  are finally settled as contemplated by this Article 20 and (y) the provisions of this Article 20 shall  in no way limit the rights and remedies which the Non-Defaulting Party may have as a result of an  Event of Default, whether pursuant to Article 19 above or otherwise:  (a) Macquarie Contracts.  If any Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement  Contract,  Included Renewable Product Purchase Transaction or Included Sales  Transaction or Additional Renewable Product Transaction does not either (i) by its terms  automatically become assigned to the Company on and as of the Termination Date in a  manner which releases Macquarie from all obligations thereunder for all periods following  the Termination Date or (ii) by its terms, expire or terminate on and as of the Termination  Date, then the Parties shall promptly negotiate and enter into, with each of the then existing  Third Party Suppliers, assignments, assumptions and/or such other documentation, in form  and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Parties, pursuant to which, as of the  Termination Date, (w) such Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract,   Included Renewable Product Purchase Transaction or Included Sales Transaction or  Additional Renewable Product Transaction shall be assigned to the Company or shall be  terminated, (x) all rights and obligations of Macquarie under each of the then outstanding  Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract,  Included Renewable Product

In connection with the assignment or reassignment of any Macquarie  Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract,  Included Renewable Product Purchase  Transaction or Included Sales Transaction or Additional Renewable Product Transaction,  the Parties shall endeavor, in a commercially reasonable manner, to facilitate the  transitioning of the supply and payment arrangements, including any change in payment  terms, under the relevant Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement Contract,  Included  Renewable Product Purchase Transaction or Included Sales Transaction or Additional  Renewable Product Transaction so as to prevent any material disruption thereunder.  (b) Marketing and Sales Agreement.  If, pursuant to the Marketing and Sales  Agreement, any sales commitments are outstanding which, by their terms, extend beyond  the Termination Date, then the Parties shall promptly negotiate and enter into, with each of  the purchasers thereunder, assignments, assumptions and/or such other documentation, in  form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Parties, pursuant to which, as of the  Termination Date, (i) such sales commitment shall be assigned (or reassigned) to the  Company or shall be terminated, (ii) all rights and obligations of Macquarie with respect  to each then outstanding sales commitment shall be assigned to the Company, (iii) the  Company shall assume all of such obligations to be paid or performed following such  termination, and (iv) Macquarie shall be released by the purchasers thereunder and the  Company from any further obligations with respect to such sales commitments.  In  connection with the assignment or reassignment of any Macquarie Permitted Feedstock  Procurement Contract, the Parties shall endeavor, in a commercially reasonable manner, to  facilitate the transitioning of the Renewable Product marketing and sales arrangements so  as to prevent any material disruption in the distribution of Renewable Products from the  Refinery.  (c) Ancillary Contracts.  In the event that Macquarie has become a party to any  other third party service contract in connection with this Agreement and the transactions  contemplated hereby, including any pipeline, terminalling, storage and shipping  arrangement including but not limited to the Required Storage and Transportation  Arrangements (an “Ancillary Contract”) and such Ancillary Contract does not by its terms  expire or terminate on and as of the Termination Date, then the Parties shall promptly  negotiate and enter into with each service provider thereunder such instruments or other  documentation, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Parties, pursuant to  which as of the Termination Date (i) such Ancillary Contract shall be assigned to the  Company or shall be terminated, (ii) all rights and obligations of Macquarie with respect  to each then outstanding Ancillary Contract shall be assigned to the Company, (iii) the  Company shall assume all of such obligations to be paid or performed following such  termination, and (iv) Macquarie shall be released by the third party service providers  thereunder and the Company from any further obligations with respect to such Ancillary  Contract.  

 

  104  13585990v13  (d) Purchase and Transfer of Permitted Feedstock and Renewable Products.   The volume of Permitted Feedstock and Renewable Products at the Included Locations, at  Macquarie’s election (i) shall be purchased and transferred as contemplated in the Step- Out Inventory Sales Agreement, (ii) at Macquarie’s cost, but with the mutual agreement of  both Parties, including the use of any Base Contracts, shall be taken and accepted in kind  satisfaction of obligations hereunder or (iii) at Macquarie’s cost, but with Company’s  reasonable assistance, including the use of any Base Contracts, shall be sold in its entirety  or in part to third parties of Macquarie’s choosing but with withdrawal from the Included  Locations in connection therewith promptly.  The Permitted Feedstock volumes measured  by Macquarie’s Inspector at the Termination Date and recorded in Macquarie’s Inspector’s  final inventory report shall be the “Termination Date Permitted Feedstock Volumes” for  the purposes of this Agreement and the Renewable Product volumes measured by  Macquarie’s Inspector at the Termination Date and recorded in Macquarie’s Inspector’s  final inventory report shall be the “Termination Date Renewable Product Volumes” for  purposes of this Agreement, and such Termination Date Permitted Feedstock Volumes and  Termination Date Renewable Product Volumes shall collectively be referred to as the  “Termination Date Volumes.”   (e) Determination of Termination Amount.  Macquarie shall promptly  reconcile and determine the Termination Amount pursuant to Section 20.2.  The Parties  shall promptly exchange all information necessary to determine the estimates and final  calculations contemplated by Section 20.2.  (f) No Further Obligations.  Macquarie shall have no further obligation to  purchase and shall not purchase or pay for Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Products, or  incur any such purchase obligations on and after the Termination Date.  Except as may be  required for Macquarie to fulfill its obligations hereunder until the Termination Date or  during any obligatory notice period pursuant to any Macquarie Permitted Feedstock  Procurement Contract, Macquarie shall not be obligated to purchase, take title to or pay for  any Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Products following the Termination Date or such  earlier date as the Parties may determine in connection with the transitioning of such supply  arrangements to the Company.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no  Delivery Date shall occur later than the day immediately preceding the Termination Date.  20.2 Termination Amount.   (a) The “Termination Amount” shall equal:  (i) any unpaid amounts owed by the Company to Macquarie pursuant  to the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement and, without duplication, in respect of  Permitted Feedstock delivered on or prior to the Termination Date but not otherwise  accounted for in the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement, plus  (ii) all Ancillary Costs incurred through the Termination Date that have  not yet been paid or reimbursed by the Company, plus  

 

  105  13585990v13  (iii) in the case of an early termination, the amount reasonably  determined by Macquarie as the breakage costs it incurred directly in connection  with the termination, unwinding or redeploying of all Related Hedges, including  Permitted Feedstock Hedges, as a result of such early termination, including all  hedging transactions relating to the inventory valuation adjustment procedures set  forth in the Fees and Adjustments Letter, plus   (iv) the aggregate amount due under Section 10.1(f) and Section 10.2(b),  calculated as of the Termination Date with such date being the final day of the last  monthly period for which such calculations are to be made under this Agreement;  provided that, if such amount under Section 10.1(f) and Section 10.2(b) is due to  Macquarie, then such amount shall be included in this Termination Amount as a  positive number and if such amount under Section 10.1(f) and Section 10.2(a) is  due to the Company, then such amount shall be included in this Termination  Amount as a negative number, plus   (v) all unpaid amounts payable hereunder by Macquarie to the  Company in respect of Renewable Product delivered on or prior to the Termination  Date, minus  (vi) all unpaid amounts payable under the Marketing and Sales  Agreement by Macquarie to the Company for services provided up to the  Termination Date.  All of the foregoing amounts shall be aggregated or netted to a single liquidated amount  owing from one Party to the other.  If the Termination Amount is a positive number, it shall  be due to Macquarie and if it is a negative number, the absolute value thereof shall be due  to the Company.  (b) The Parties acknowledge that one or more of the components of the  Termination Amount may not be capable of definitive determination by the Termination  Date and therefore agree that Macquarie shall, in a commercially reasonable manner,  estimate in good faith each of such components and use such estimated components to  determine an estimate of the Termination Amount (the “Estimated Termination Amount”);  provided that the Parties agree that Macquarie shall apply the Independent Amount, and  for purposes of this Section 20.2(b), inclusive of and giving effect to the Permitted  Intermediated Feedstock Inventory Valuation Adjustment, against the Estimated  Termination Amount and shall not wait until final settlement is completed pursuant to  Section 20.2(c).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties agree that the  amount due under Section 20.2(a)(i) above shall be estimated by Macquarie in the same  manner and using the same methodology as it used in preparing the Estimated Effective  Date Value, but applying the “Step-Out Prices” as indicated in Schedule B and other price  terms provided for herein with respect to the purchase of the Termination Date Volumes.   Macquarie shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare, and provide the Company  with, an initial Estimated Termination Amount, together with appropriate supporting  documentation, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date.  To the extent  reasonably practicable, Macquarie shall endeavor to update its calculation of the Estimated  

 

  106  13585990v13  Termination Amount by no later than 12:00 p.m. EST on the Business Day prior to the  Termination Date.  If Macquarie is able to provide such updated amount, that amount shall  constitute the Estimated Termination Amount and shall be due and payable by no later than  5:00 p.m., EST on the Business Day preceding the Termination Date.  Otherwise, the initial  Estimated Termination Amount shall be the amount payable on the Termination Date.  If  the Estimated Termination Amount is a positive number, it shall be due to Macquarie and  if it is a negative number, the absolute value thereof shall be due to the Company.  (c) On or before ten (10) Business Days following the Termination Date,  Macquarie shall prepare, and provide the Company with, (i) a statement showing the  calculation, as of the Termination Date, of the Termination Amount, (ii) a statement (the  “Termination Reconciliation Statement”) reconciling the Termination Amount with the  sum of the Estimated Termination Amount pursuant to Section 20.2(b) and the Independent  Amount and indicating any amount remaining to be paid by one Party to the other as a  result of such reconciliation. Within one (1) Business Day after receiving the Termination  Reconciliation Statement and the related supporting documentation, the Parties shall make  any and all payments required pursuant thereto.  Promptly after receiving such payment  (but in any event within five (5) Business Days of such receipt), Macquarie shall (x) cause  any filing or recording of any UCC financing forms to be terminated, (y) release and  terminate all Lien Documents pursuant to one or more instruments mutually acceptable to  the Parties and (z) deliver, re-assign, reconvey and transfer, as applicable, to the Company  any other Credit Support or credit support held or maintained by Macquarie (including,  without limitation, the remaining balance, if any, of the Independent Amount after giving  effect to this Article 20).  (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Macquarie shall not have  any obligation to make any payment contemplated by this Section 20.2, transfer title to  Permitted Feedstock or Renewable Products or to otherwise cooperate in the transition  matters described in Section 20.1 unless (i) the Company shall have performed its  obligations under the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement and this Section 20.2 as and  when required pursuant to the terms hereof and thereof, and (ii) except as otherwise agreed  by the Parties, the Master Agreement and all Macquarie Permitted Feedstock Procurement  Contracts and all Transactions outstanding thereunder have been terminated and all  amounts due with respect to such terminated Transactions shall have been paid in full.  20.3 Transition Services.  To the extent necessary to facilitate the transition to the  purchasers of the storage and transportation rights and status contemplated hereby, each Party shall  take such additional actions, execute such further instruments and provide such additional  assistance as the other Party may from time to time reasonably request for such purposes.     INDEMNIFICATION; EXPENSES  21.1 To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law and except as specified otherwise  elsewhere in the Transaction Documents, Macquarie shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless  the Company, its Affiliates, and their directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents and  contractors for and against any Liabilities directly or indirectly arising out of

Each Party shall have the right but not the duty to participate,  at its own expense, with counsel of its own selection, in the defense and settlement thereof without  relieving the other of any obligations hereunder.  21.5 The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by  Macquarie and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel  and tax consultants for Macquarie) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution,  delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents or any  amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the  transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all out-of-pocket  expenses incurred by Macquarie and its Affiliates in connection with the enforcement or protection  of Macquarie’s rights under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction  Documents.

Notwithstanding any other provision of  this Agreement, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect  to the Defaulting Party, the Non-Defaulting Party shall have the right, immediately  and at any time(s) thereafter, to terminate this Agreement (and any other contract  or agreement that may then be outstanding among the Parties that relates  specifically to this Agreement, including any Transaction Document) and, subject  to Section 19.2(c), to liquidate and terminate any or all rights and obligations under  this Agreement and such other Transaction Documents; provided that, in the event  Macquarie is the Non-Defaulting Party, this Agreement shall not be deemed to have  terminated in full until Macquarie shall have (A) disposed of all Crude Oil and  Products owned or maintained by Macquarie in which Macquarie has lien or other  rights in connection herewith, (B) exercised in full all of its rights and remedies  with respect to the Hydrocarbon Credit Support and (C) received evidence  satisfactory to Macquarie that the Company has met all of its obligations and  requirements under Section 20.1(a) and such obligations and requirements shall  have otherwise been satisfied in full; provided further that the parties agree that  solely for purposes of this sub clause (C), any reference to “Termination Date” as  set forth in Section 20.1(a) shall be a reference to any applicable date(s) with respect  to the completion of such foregoing obligations and requirements under this Section  19.2(b).         

 

   6  13554436v9  (n) Section 19.2, Remedies, of the Supply and Offtake Agreement is hereby  amended by deleting the last sentence of clause (c) of such section in its entirety and  replacing it with the following language:  “In calculating the Settlement Amount, the Non-Defaulting Party shall  discount to present value (in any commercially reasonable manner based on  prevailing SOFR rates for the applicable period and currency) any amount which  would be due at a later date and shall add interest (at a rate determined in the same  manner) to any amount due prior to the date of the calculation.”   Conditions Precedent.  This Sixth Amendment shall be effective on the date when  the following conditions precedent have been satisfied:  (a) Macquarie and the Company shall each have received this Sixth  Amendment duly executed by Macquarie, the Company, Parent and Calumet Refining;  (b) Macquarie shall have received, on or prior to the Sixth Amendment Closing  Date, payment of all fees, expenses and other amounts due, payable and required to be  reimbursed or paid by the Company hereunder, under the Fees and Adjustments Letter or  any other Transaction Document on or prior to such date;   (c) Macquarie shall have received an omnibus officer certificate in respect of  the Parent, Calumet Refining and the Company certifying as to incumbency, due  authorization, board approval and resolutions of such Persons and certifying as to true and  accurate copies of such Person’s organizational documents;  (d) Macquarie shall have received an opinion of counsel of the Company, in  form and substance satisfactory to Macquarie, covering such matters as Macquarie shall  reasonably request, including: good standing; existence and due qualification; power and  authority; due authorization and execution; enforceability of the Transaction Documents;  and no breach or violation of the Existing Financing Agreements; and  (e) Macquarie and the Company shall each have received such other documents  and deliveries from each other as each may reasonably request.

(b) Each of Macquarie, the Company and Calumet Refining hereby reaffirms  its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and agrees that all  Transaction Documents to which it is a party remain in full force and effect and continue  to be its legal, valid, and binding obligations enforceable in accordance with their terms (as  the same are modified by this Sixth Amendment).
