this Section 3.4, and the Tax Purchase Price shall be allocated as provided in such notice so given by Purchaser. If Sellers' Representative does so give notice of any such objection, then from
that time until the expiration of 90 days after the Closing, the Purchaser and Sellers' Representative shall negotiate in good faith to reach mutual agreement regarding any matters subject to
such objection and the allocation of the Tax Purchase Price consistent with the requirements of this Section 3.4, and if the Purchaser and Sellers' Representative do reach such agreement within
such period, then the matters and allocation so agreed upon shall be deemed agreed by the Parties for purposes of the application of this Section 3.4. In the event that Sellers' Representative
does so give notice of any such objection and the Purchaser and Sellers' Representative are unable so to reach agreement on all such matters, then the matters and allocation that have been agreed
shall be deemed agreed by the Parties for purposes of the application of this Section 3.4 and, to the extent not so agreed by Purchaser and Sellers' Representative, Purchaser and each Seller
shall file its Tax Returns based on its own good faith determinations. In the event that Purchaser and Seller's Representative have not agreed upon all matters and allocations of Tax Purchase Price
pursuant to this Section 3.4 by the expiration of 90 days after the Closing, then, at any time before the expiration of 120 days after the Closing, either Purchaser or Seller's
Representative shall have the right to revoke any agreement or all agreements previously reached pursuant to this Section 3.4, in which case no such agreement so revoked shall be deemed to have
been made for purposes of the application of this Section 3.4 and Purchaser and each Seller shall allocate the Tax Purchase Price and file its Tax Returns based upon its respective good faith
determinations. Purchaser and Seller's Representative may enter into or so revoke any agreement pursuant to this Section 3.4 in its good faith discretion. 

        (c)   The
Parties acknowledge and agree that the Assets constitute a single trade or business for purposes of Section 1060 of the Code and the application of the
provisions of this Section 3.4 and that a single Form 8594 will be filed by Purchaser pursuant thereto that identifies all Sellers and no other person as a seller. The allocation of Tax
Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be made without regard to which Seller owns any particular Asset. Purchaser shall have no concern, responsibility or liability for allocation
of Tax Purchase Price between or among any one or more of the Sellers with respect to any Assets that may be owned in whole or in part by more than one Seller. Purchaser does not make or agree to, and
shall not be obligated by this Section 3.4 to make or agree to, any allocation of Tax Purchase Price between or among Sellers and/or any other Person.

   4.     TITLE AND INSPECTION OF ASSETS  

        4.1    Title Insurance.    Sellers shall, at Sellers' expense, within twenty (20) days from the Effective Date,
furnish to Purchaser a title commitment ("Commitment") for an extended coverage owner's policy of title insurance (the "Title
Policy") in the form prescribed by the Texas Department of Insurance from a nationally recognized title insurance company selected by Sellers ("Title
Company"), in the amount of [***], showing title to the Owned Real Property in the name of the Seller that owns the Owned Real Property. Notwithstanding
any provision herein, including the terms and provisions of Section 8.1(a) hereof, it shall be a condition precedent for Purchaser's obligations under this Agreement, that Purchaser receive the
Title Policy, or an unconditional and unqualified commitment therefor from the Title Company, in the form provided above, with the endorsements set forth on Schedule 4.1, showing good and
indefeasible title in the Owned Real Property vested in the Purchaser (or its permitted assignee), subject only to the Permitted Real Property Exceptions. 

        4.2    Survey.    Sellers shall cause to be delivered to Purchaser and Title Company, at Sellers' expense, within ten
(10) days from the Effective Date an as-built survey (the "Survey") of the Owned Real Property, prepared by a duly licensed land
surveyor, at Sellers' cost and expense, in accordance with the "Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys," jointly established and adopted by ALTA and ACSM in 1992, as
amended from time to time, and meeting the accuracy requirements of a Class A survey, as defined therein, including items 2, 3, 4, 6, 7(a), 8, 9, 10 and 11 of Table A thereof. Any encroachments
of any improvements upon, from, or onto the Owned Real Property, on or between any building set-back line, a property line, or any easement shown on the Survey, are deemed to be a title
defect. Purchaser agrees that the Land Title Survey dated February 2, 2004, by Jeffrey Moon, Registered Professional Land Surveyor No. 4639 (the "Surveyor"), a copy of which has been
provided to Purchaser, shall meet the requirements of this Section. 

        If
the legal description on the Survey does not match the legal description of the Owned Real Property set forth on Exhibit l.1(ddd), then the legal description on the Survey
shall control. 

        4.3    Title Review Period.    Purchaser shall have ten (10) Business Days (the "Title
Review Period") after the receipt of (a) the Commitment, (b) legible copies of all instruments referred to in Schedules B and C of the Commitment, and
(c) the Survey to notify Sellers, in writing, of such objections (excluding Permitted Real Property Exceptions) as Purchaser may have to the Commitment or Survey. Liens for ad valorem
Taxes not then due and payable and any item contained in the Title Commitment or Survey to which Purchaser does not object during the Title Review Period shall be deemed a Permitted Real Property
Exception. In the event Purchaser shall notify Sellers of an objection to anything contained in the Title Commitment or Survey prior to the expiration of the Title Review Period, Sellers shall have
ten (10) Business Days, or such greater period of time as may be mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Sellers (the "Cure Period"), within which
Sellers may (but shall in no event be required to) cure or remove such objection. If Sellers fail to either cure or remove such objection to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser and the Title
Company prior to the expiration of the Cure Period, and if by reason of such objection the Title Company refuses to issue the Title Policy in the form provided for in Section 4.1 of this
Agreement, Purchaser may either waive such objection and accept such title as Sellers are able to convey without any reduction in the Purchase Price or, as its sole and exclusive remedy, terminate
this Agreement by written notice to Sellers given within five (5) days following the expiration of the Cure Period, except that Purchaser shall be entitled to a reduction in the Purchase Price
in the amount of any monetary Liens filed of record against the Owned Real Property to the extent such Liens are not paid at or before the Closing. Failure of the Purchaser to send written notice of
the election available to it pursuant to the preceding sentence within five (5) days after the expiration of the Cure Period shall be deemed an election by Purchaser to waive its objection and
accept such title as Sellers are able to convey without any reduction in the Purchase Price, except for the reduction in the Purchase Price in the amount of any Liens filed of record against the Owned
Real Property, as provided above.

zoning restrictions; 

        (b)   Easements

existing rights of adjoining owners in any walls and fences situated on a common boundary; and 

        (f)    Exceptions

the Secretary of State of the state of its formation), and all amendments thereto, which have heretofore been or shall promptly be delivered to Purchaser, are accurate and complete as of the date
hereof. Schedule 5.1(a) hereto contains a complete and accurate list of all jurisdictions in which each Seller is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation, where such qualification is
required by virtue of such Seller's conduct of the Business or location of Assets. 

        (b)    Authority.    Each Seller has all requisite power and authority, and has taken all
corporate, partnership or limited liability company action necessary, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and
to perform its obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been and when executed and delivered the other Transaction Documents will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Seller and
constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of each Seller enforceable against each Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
or similar Laws, relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditor's rights generally and general principles of equity (regardless. of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in

subject or (D) to the Knowledge of each Seller, any other restriction of any kind or character to which such Seller or its business or assets are subject, which conflict, violation, breach or
default in each of clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) above would prohibit or restrict the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Transaction
Documents, or, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; (iii) give any Person the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy under, or to accelerate the maturity
or performance of, or to cancel, terminate or modify, any of the Assumed Liabilities; or (iv) result in the imposition or creation of any Liens upon or with respect to any of the Assets.

based on and derived from its books and records, and which was prepared with due care. The Historical Information was not prepared on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles. Sellers
reasonably believe that the Historical Information, when considered in the context of the foregoing, the information contained in the footnotes associated therewith, and additional explanatory

the matters addressed in such sections and the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.1(n) (Environmental Matters) shall survive for a period of twenty-four
(24) months from the Closing Date. The termination of the representations and warranties provided herein shall not affect the rights of a Party in respect of any Claim made by such Party in a
writing received by the other Party prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period provided herein.

11.   INDEMNIFICATION  

        11.1    Seller's Indemnification of the Purchaser.    ALT, Texas LNG, and Fleet Star, jointly and severally, and JBK,
severally and solely with respect to the representations and obligations of JBK hereunder, agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser Group from and against, and to reimburse Purchaser
Group with respect to, any and all claims, demands, causes of action, loss, damage, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney's and experts' fees and court costs, if allowed by
law) (collectively "Claims") asserted against or incurred by Purchaser Group by reason of or arising out of (a) the breach of any representation
or warranty of the Sellers, or any of them, set forth in this Agreement, (b) the failure of Sellers to perform any covenant or other obligation required by this Agreement to be performed by
Sellers, or any of them, (c) any Claims by any Person other than Purchaser relating to the ownership or operations of the Assets or the conduct of the Business prior to the Closing,

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.1, Sellers shall not be obligated to indemnify Purchaser Group until the aggregate amount of any Claims sustained by Purchaser Group
exceeds $50,000 and then only to the extent the aggregate amount of such Claims exceeds $50,000. 

        11.2    Certain Limitations.    Sellers shall have no liability for any misrepresentation or breach of warranty or
covenant under this Agreement or otherwise have any liability in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to the extent that the existence of such liability, the breach of
warranty or covenant or the falsity of the representation upon which such liability would be based is disclosed in this Agreement, or in the Disclosure Schedules attached hereto or which is disclosed
in a written notice furnished to Purchaser prior to the Closing, or which the Purchaser, through its Due Diligence Review, or otherwise, obtained Knowledge; provided, however, that any such
misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant disclosed to Purchaser after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing shall not affect the right of Purchaser to elect
not to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as provided in Section 13.1 (it being understood and agreed that if, despite such right of Purchaser to elect not to close by reason
of the misrepresentation or breach so disclosed, Purchaser nevertheless elects to close, thereby waiving such misrepresentation or breach, Purchaser shall thereafter, to the extent of the disclosure,
have no Claim against Sellers by reason of, in connection with or arising from any such disclosed misrepresentation Or breach of warranty or covenant). 

        11.3    Purchaser's Indemnification of Sellers.    Subject to Section 10.1, Purchaser agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless Seller Group from and against, and to reimburse Seller Group with respect to, any and all Claims asserted against or incurred by Seller Group by reason of or arising out of
(a) the breach of any representation or warranty of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement, (b) the failure of Purchaser to perform any covenant or other obligation required by this

        11.4    Procedure for Claims.    If any Party indemnified under Section 11.1 or I 1.3 (the
"Claimant") desires to make a Claim against any Party obligated to provide indemnification under Section 11.1 or 11.3 (the
"Indemnitor"), with respect to any matter covered by such indemnification obligation, the procedures for making such Claim shall be as follows: 

        (a)   Third Party' Claims. if the Claim is for indemnification with respect to any Claim by any Person other than Purchaser or
Sellers ("Third Party Claim"), the Claimant will give prompt written notice to the Indemnitor of the institution, assertion or making of such Third
Party Claim, and the nature thereof. Upon delivery of such notice, the Claim specified therein shall be deemed to have been made for purposes of this Agreement. If the Claimant fails to give such
notice and Indemnitor is precluded from asserting a material defense, Claimant shall be deemed to have waived rights to indemnification or payment with respect to such Third Party Claim but only to
the extent the Indemnitor suffers actual loss as a result of such failure. Upon prior written notice to Claimant, Indemnitor may, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Claimant's notice (or
sooner, if the nature of the Claim so requires), proceed, with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Claimant, at the Indemnitor's sole expense, to cure, defend, compromise or settle the Third Party
Claim, in the name of the Claimant or otherwise. If indemnitor undertakes the defense of any Third Party Claim, Claimant shall cooperate with Indemnitor and its counsel in the investigation and
defense, at Indemnitor's expense, but Indemnitor shall control the negotiation, tactics, trial, appeals and other matters and proceedings related thereto, except that Indemnitor shall not, without the
prior written consent of Claimant, in connection with any Third Party Claim, require Claimant to take or refrain from taking any action, or make any public statement, which Claimant reasonably
considers to be against its interest, or consent to any settlement that requires Claimant to make any payment that is not fully indemnified hereunder or, in the case of Purchaser as indemnitee, any
settlement that may adversely affect the Business as operated by Purchaser after the Closing. If the Indemnitor notifies Claimant that it does not wish to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim,
or if the Indemnitor fails to respond to the Claimant's notice of the Third Party Claim within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice (or sooner, if the nature of the Claim so requires)
fails to proceed in a diligent and timely manner to cure, defend, compromise or settle a Third Party Claim for which it has assumed the defense pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Claimant may,
at the sole cost and expense of Indemnitor, proceed to cure, defend, compromise or settle the Third Party Claim as it shall in its sole discretion deem to be advisable, without prejudice to any right
to indemnification the Claimant may have against the Indemnitor with respect thereto, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein contained shall
prevent the Claimant, if it so desires, from employing its own counsel at Claimant's own expense to assist in the defense (but not to control the defense) of any Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the Indemnitor shall not be entitled to have sole control over (and if it so desires, the Claimant shall have sole control over) the defense, settlement,
adjustment or compromise of (i) any Third Party (non-monetary) Claim that seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief against any Claimant or its Affiliates which, if
successful, is reasonably likely to interfere with the business, assets, liabilities, obligations, prospects, financial condition or results of operations of the Claimant or any of its Affiliates and
(ii) any matter relating to Taxes of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates. 

        (b)    Non-Third Party Claims.    If the Claim is for indemnification with respect
to a matter other than a Third Party Claim, the Claimant will give prompt written notice to the Indemnitor of such claim, setting forth with reasonable particularity the basis, nature and dollar
amount thereof. Upon delivery of such notice the Claim specified therein shall be deemed to have been made for purposes of this Agreement. The Indemnitor shall, within fifteen (15) days after
receipt of such notice, give written notice to the Claimant as to whether or not the Indemnitor accepts the responsibility to indemnify the Claimant with respect to such Claim. If the Indemnitor fails
to respond to notice of such Claim within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice or denies responsibility therefor, the liability of the Indemnitor to the Claimant for indemnification
with respect to such Claim shall be determined by a judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, or by written consent of the Indemnitor.

        11.5    Remedies: Limitations on Liability.    Purchaser and Sellers shall each, respectively, be entitled to any and
all remedies or actions at law or equity relating to the breach of this Agreement by the other, and the prevailing Party in any legal proceeding between Purchaser and Sellers brought under or with
relation to this Agreement shall be additionally entitled to recover court costs, expert fees and reasonable attorney fees, if allowed by applicable Law, from the prevailing Party, subject to the
following: 

        (a)   Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, (i) except with respect to a breach of a representation, warranty and covenant of any Seller hereunder with
respect to any Tax (in which case the limitation of this Section 11.5(a)(i) shall not apply) and any Claim based on actual fraud of any Seller (in which case neither of the limitations
in Section 10.1 nor the limitations in this Section 11.5(a)(i) shall apply), the maximum aggregate liability of Sellers, under the indemnity provisions of Section 11 of
this Agreement, or under any other provisions of this Agreement, shall not exceed $1,400,000, and (ii) except with respect to any Claim based on actual fraud (in which case neither of the
limitations in Section 10.1 nor the limitations in this Section 11.5(a)(ii) shall apply), the maximum aggregate liability of Purchaser under the indemnity provisions of
Section 11 of this Agreement, or under any other provisions of this Agreement, shall not exceed $1,400,000. 

        (b)   If
any Claims for which indemnification is provided are covered by third party insurance, the Claimant shall assign its right to proceeds from such insurance to the
Indemnitor upon the receipt of notice of indemnification from the Indemnitor. 

        (c)   If
any Claimant becomes entitled to any indemnification from a Claim pursuant to this Agreement, such indemnification payment shall be made in Cash upon demand. 

        (d)   Upon
making any payment to a Claimant for any Claim, the Indemnitor shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment, to any rights which the Indemnitee may have
against any third party with respect to the subject matter underlying such Claim. 

12.   RISK OF LOSS: CASUALTY: CONDEMNATION  

        12.1    Risk of Loss.    Title to, and risk of loss or destruction of or damage to, the Assets shall remain in and
upon Sellers until completion of the Closing, at which time they shall pass to Purchaser. 

        12.2    Substantial Casualty or Condemnation.    If at any time prior to the Closing Date all or any portion of the
Assets are destroyed or damaged as a result of fire or any other casualty whatsoever and the cost of restoring such damage exceeds $250,000, or if all or any portion of the Owned Real Property or
facilities material for the operation of the Willis Plant is condemned or taken by eminent domain proceedings by any Governmental Authority or if a notice of any such prospective condemnation or
taking is given by any Governmental Authority, then at the option of Purchaser (exercised by written notice to Sellers within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice of such occurrence from
Sellers), this Agreement shall terminate and shall be canceled with no further liability of either Party to the other (except for such obligations which expressly survive termination hereof). Sellers
shall give Purchaser prompt written notice of any casualty or any actual or threatened taking of which Sellers have Knowledge.

        12.3    Sellers' and Purchaser's Rights.    If there is any partial or total damage or destruction or condemnation or
taking, as set forth in Section 12.2, and if Purchaser elects not to terminate (or is not permitted to terminate) this Agreement as herein provided, then (a) in the case of a taking,
there shall be no adjustment to the Purchase Price but all condemnation proceeds paid or payable to Sellers shall belong to Purchaser and shall be paid over and assigned to Purchaser at Closing, and
Sellers shall further execute all assignments and any other documents or instruments as Purchaser may reasonably request or as may be necessary to transfer all interest in all such proceeds to
Purchaser or to whomever Purchaser shall direct, free and clear of any claims or Liens and (b) in the case of a casualty, there shall be no adjustment to the Purchase Price and Sellers shall
(i) assign to Purchaser Sellers' valid and unencumbered right, title and interest in and to all insurance proceeds paid or payable under all insurance policies required to be maintained by
Sellers hereunder (and to Sellers' interest in such policies to the extent necessary to enforce Purchaser's right to any proceeds thereunder), free and clear of any claims or defenses of the insurer
and (ii) pay to Purchaser the amount of any deductible under such policies (not to exceed the amount of the actual loss); provided that in the event Purchaser determines prior to Closing that
the amount collectible under such insurance policies together with the amount of the deductible is or will likely be less than the actual cost to restore the Assets either because the same were
underinsured by Sellers or the insurer denies coverage for any reason, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at or prior to Closing, unless Sellers agree to pay the uninsured
deficiency. 

13.   TERMINATION  

        13.1    Termination.    This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing by:

shall have determined, pursuant to its Due Diligence Review, as contemplated pursuant to Section 8.1(o), that the matter described in Section 8.1(o)(1) is unacceptable to Purchaser,

        14.3    Publicity.    All notices to Third Parties and other publicity concerning the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, or any subsequent termination of this Agreement, shall be jointly planned and coordinated by and between Sellers and Purchaser. No Party shall act unilaterally in this regard without

Texas. 

        14.5    Entire Agreement; Amendments; Waivers.    This Agreement, including the representations and warranties
contained herein, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations,
warranties and understandings of the Parties. No supplement, modification or amendment to this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by each of the Parties hereto. No waiver of any of
the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed, or shall constitute, a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. No waiver shall be
binding unless executed in writing by the Party making the waiver. 

        14.6    Counterparts.    This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which taken together shall

LITIGATION SHALL BE TRIED BY A JUDGE WITHOUT A JURY. 

        14.8    Forum and Venue.    Any and all claims or actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be filed

        14.9    Mutual Cooperation.    After the Closing, each Party to this Agreement shall cooperate with each other Party
and its Affiliates, which cooperation shall include the furnishing of testimony and other evidence, permitting access to employees and providing information regarding the whereabouts of former

with Buyer, through counsel and otherwise, to defend the transactions contemplated by this Agreement should any of them be challenged by any Governmental Authority, private parties, or other third
party in any court, administrative or similar proceeding. Such cooperation shall include without limitation providing oral and documentary evidence, including affidavits of officers and employees, for
use in such proceedings relating to the financial condition of the Sellers, including but not limited to balance sheets, profit and loss statements, cash flows, accounts payable, the status and
history of debt obligations and similar data of ALT and Texas LNG for the period from October 1, 1999 to the present, information concerning prior efforts to sell or otherwise dispose of the

        14.12    Specific Performance.    Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges that the other Party would not have an
adequate remedy at Law for money damages in the event that any of the covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement were not performed by the other Party in accordance with its terms and
therefore the Parties agree that each Party shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled at Law or in
equity (without the necessity of proving the inadequacy as a remedy of money damages). 

        14.13    Bulk Transfer.    The Parties hereto hereby waive compliance with the provisions of any applicable bulk sales
Law of any jurisdiction in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and no representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been breached as a
result of such non-compliance. 

        14.14    Sellers' Representative.    

        (a)   ALT
acting alone, with full power of substitution and re-substitution, is hereby designated as the representative of the Sellers
("Sellers' Representative") to serve, and the Purchaser hereby acknowledges that Seller's Representative shall serve, as the sole representative of the
Sellers from and after the Effective Date with respect to the matters set forth in this Agreement, such service to be without compensation except for the reimbursement of
out-of-pocket expenses and indemnification specifically provided herein. Sellers' Representative has accepted such designation as of the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Sellers' Representative shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on behalf of any Seller shall otherwise exist against Sellers' Representative. 

        (b)   Each
Seller hereby irrevocably appoints Sellers' Representative as the agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact for such Seller for all purposes of this
Agreement, including full power and authority on such Seller's behalf (i) to take all actions which Sellers'
Representative considers necessary or desirable in connection with the defense, pursuit or settlement of any determinations relating to (x) the payment of the Purchase Price, and (y) any
Claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 11 of this Agreement, including determinations to sue, defend, negotiate, settle and compromise any such Claims for indemnification made by or
against, and other dispute with Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, or any of the agreements or transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) to engage and employ agents and representatives
(including accountants, legal counsel and other professionals) and to incur such other expenses as he shall deem necessary or prudent in connection with the administration of the foregoing,
(iii) to disburse to the Sellers all indemnification payments received from Purchaser under Section 11 hereof, (iv) to accept and receive notices to Sellers pursuant to this
Agreement, and (v) to take all other actions and exercise all other rights which Sellers' Representative (in its sole discretion) considers necessary or appropriate in connection with this
Agreement. Each of the Sellers acknowledges and agrees that such agency and proxy are coupled with an interest, and are therefore irrevocable without the consent of Sellers' Representative and shall
survive the bankruptcy, dissolution or liquidation of any Seller. All decisions and acts by Sellers' Representative shall be binding upon all of the Sellers, and no Seller shall have the right to
object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. 

        (c)   In
the event that the entity authorized hereunder as Sellers' Representative shall resign or otherwise fail to act on behalf of the Sellers for any reason, a substitute
Sellers' Representative shall be elected by prompt action of the Sellers.

36

 

        (d)   Sellers'
Representative is authorized to act on behalf of the Sellers notwithstanding any dispute or disagreement among the Sellers, and the Purchaser shall be entitled
to rely on any and all action taken by Sellers' Representative without any liability to, or obligation to inquire of, any Sellers even if such party shall be aware of any actual or potential dispute
or disagreement among Sellers. Purchaser is expressly authorized to rely on the genuineness of the signature of Sellers' Representative and, upon receipt of any writing which reasonably appears to
have been signed by a representative of Sellers' Representative may act upon the same without any further duty of inquiry as to the genuineness of the writing. 

        (e)   Neither
Sellers' Representative nor any agent employed by it shall be liable to any Seller relating to the performance of its duties under this Agreement for any errors
judgment, negligence, oversight, breach of duty or otherwise except to the extent it is finally determined in a court of competent jurisdiction by clear and convincing evidence that the actions taken
or not taken by Sellers' Representative constituted fraud or were taken or not taken in bad faith. Sellers' Representative shall be indemnified and held harmless by Sellers against all Claims paid or
incurred in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or Claim to which Sellers' Representative is made a party by reason of the fact that it was acting as Sellers' Representative pursuant to this
Agreement; provided, however, that Sellers' Representative shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder to the extent it is finally determined in a court of competent jurisdiction by clear and
convincing evidence that the actions taken or not taken by Sellers' Representative constituted actual fraud or were taken or not taken in bad faith. Sellers' Representative shall be protected in
acting upon any notice, statement or certificate believed by it to be genuine and to have been furnished by the appropriate Person and in acting or refusing to in act in good faith or any matter. 

	14.15
	Disclosure Schedules; Interpretation. Any matter set forth in a Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed disclosure also for purposes of
any other Sections or Disclosure Schedules in this Agreement to which it may relate. Failure to provide a cross reference to other applicable Sections contained in the Agreement or Disclosure
Schedules shall not, however, be determined a failure to disclose unless a reasonable person would be unable to determine that the disclosure contained in such Section or Disclosure Schedule contains
enough information to qualify or otherwise apply to other representations, Sections or Disclosure Schedules contained this Agreement.

REVOLVING PROMISSORY NOTE  
    

	$50,000,000.00	 	Dallas, Texas	 	August 31, 2006

        FOR VALUE RECEIVED, CLEAN ENERGY FUELS CORP., a Delaware corporation ("Maker"), promises to pay to the order of
the BOONE PICKENS, an individual residing in Dallas County, Texas ("Payee"), by payment in immediately available funds and or in lawful money of the
United States of America, the principal sum of FIFTY MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($50,000,000.00) or, if greater or less, the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of advances made under this note by Payee to Maker, together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this note from time to time outstanding until maturity at the lesser of
(i) the Stated Rate (as hereinafter defined) and (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate (as hereinafter defined), provided, that for the full term of this note the interest rate produced by the
aggregate of all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the holder of this note for the use, forbearance or detention of the debt evidenced hereby shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate (as hereinafter
defined). 

        1.    Definitions.    As used in this note, the following terms shall have the respective meanings indicated: 

        (a)   "Business
Day" means a day when banks are open for business in Dallas, Texas. 

        (b)   "Chapter
One" means Chapter One of Title 79 Texas Revised Civil Statutes, 1925, as amended. 

        (c)   "Debt"
means the indebtedness evidenced by this note and the indebtedness to the Payee incurred under or evidenced by the Loan Documents (as
hereinafter defined). 

        (d)   "Highest
Lawful Rate" means the maximum non-usurious rate of interest permitted on the execution date hereof by whichever of applicable
federal or Texas laws permit the higher maximum non-usurious interest rate. If Chapter One establishes the Highest Lawful Rate, the Highest Lawful Rate shall be the "indicated rate ceiling" (as
defined in Chapter One). 

        (e)   "Loan
Documents" means any and all documents and instruments now or hereafter evidencing, securing or guaranteeing all or any part of the
indebtedness evidenced by this note. 

        (f)    "Maturity
Date" means August 31, 2007, as the same may hereafter be accelerated pursuant to the provisions of this note or any of the other
Loan Documents. 

        (g)   "Stated
Rate" means the means the "Prime Rate" as announced from time to time by Plains Capital Bank plus one percent (1.0%). If the Prime
Rate referred to above changes after the date hereof, the Base Rate shall be automatically increased or decreased, as the case may be, without notice to Maker from time to time as of the effective
time of each change in such Prime Rate. 

        2.    Computation of Interest.    Interest on the amount of each advance against this note shall be computed on the
amount of that advance and from the date it is made. Such interest shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed in the applicable calendar year in which accrued. 

        3.    Payments of Principal and Interest.    

        (a)   The
principal of this note, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal balance of this note, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. 

1

 

        (b)   If
any payment provided for in this note shall become due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day (unless the
result of such extension of time would be to extend the date for such payment into another calendar month or beyond the Maturity Date, and in either such event such payment shall be made on the
Business Day immediately proceeding the day on which such payment would otherwise have been due), and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest on this note. 

        (c)   Maker
may at any time pay the full amount or any part of this note without the payment of any premium or fee. All prepayments hereon shall be applied first to accrued
and unpaid interest on this note, and then to the outstanding principal balance of this note. Subject to the terms of this note, Maker may borrow, repay and reborrow hereunder until the Maturity Date. 

        (d)   To
the extent Maker receives any maintenance margin that was paid with proceeds from any advances hereunder, Maker shall apply the full amount of such maintenance margin
as a prepayment of this note. Such payment shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest on this note, and then to the outstanding principal balance of this note. 

        4.    No Usury Intended; Spreading.    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this note or any of
the other Loan Documents, it is expressly provided that in no case or event shall the aggregate of (i) all interest on the unpaid balance of this note, accrued or paid on or from the date
hereof and (ii) the aggregate of any other amounts accrued or paid pursuant to this note or any of the other Loan Documents, which under applicable laws are or may be deemed to constitute
interest upon the indebtedness evidenced by this note from the date hereof, ever exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. In this connection, it is expressly stipulated and agreed that it is the intent of the
Maker and the Payee to contract in strict compliance with the applicable usury laws of the State of Texas and of the United States, whichever from time to time permit the higher rate of interest. In
furtherance thereof, none of the terms of this note or any of the other Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, as consideration for the use, forbearance or detention of
money, interest at a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. The Maker or other parties now or hereafter becoming liable for payment of the indebtedness evidenced by this note shall never by liable
for interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. If, for any reason whatever, the interest paid or received on this note during its full term produces a rate which exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate,
the holder of this note shall refund to the payor or, at the holder's option, credit against the principal of this note such portion of said interest as shall be necessary to cause the interest paid
on this note to produce a rate equal to the Highest Lawful Rate. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the holder of this note for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidenced
hereby shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of this note until payment in full of the principal (including the period
of any renewal or extension hereof), so that the interest hereon
throughout the full term of this note shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. The provisions of this Section 4 shall control all
agreements, whether now or hereafter existing and whether written or oral, between the Maker and the Payee. 

        5.    Default.    An "Event of Default" shall exist upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events: 

        (a)   Maker
shall fail to pay when due any principal of, or interest on, this note; 

        (b)   Maker
shall (i) execute a general assignment for the benefit of Maker's creditors, or (ii) become the subject, voluntarily or involuntarily, of any
bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization proceeding, or (iii) admit in writing Maker's inability to pay Maker's debts generally as they become due, or (iv) apply for or consent to the
appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or liquidator of Maker or of all or a substantial part of Maker's assets, or (v) file a voluntary petition seeking protection under any debtor's
relief or other insolvency law now or hereafter existing, or (vi) file an answer admitting the material allegations of, or consenting to, or default in filing an 

2

 

answer
to, a petition filed against Maker in any bankruptcy, reorganization, or other insolvency proceedings, or (vii) institute or voluntarily be or become a party to any other judicial
proceedings intended to effect a discharge of the debts of Maker, in whole or in part, or a postponement of the maturity or the collection thereof, or a suspension of any of the rights or powers of
Payee granted in the Loan Documents; 

        (c)   An
order, judgment, or decree shall be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction appointing a custodian, receiver, trustee, or liquidator of Maker or of all or any
substantial part of Maker's assets; or 

        (d)   The
liens, mortgages or security interests created (or purported to be created) by this note or by any other Loan Documents should become unenforceable. 

Upon
the occurrence of any Event of Default, the owner or holder may, at its, his or her option, exercise any or all rights, powers and remedies afforded under any of the Loan Documents, all other
instruments evidencing, securing or guaranteeing this note and by law, including the right to declare the unpaid balance of principal and accrued interest on this note at once mature and payable. 

        6.    No Waiver by the Payee.    No delay or omission of the Payee or any other holder hereof to exercise any power,
right or remedy accruing to the Payee or any other holder hereof shall impair any such power,
right or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise any such power, right or remedy. 

        7.    Costs and Attorneys' Fees.    If any holder of this note retains an attorney in connection with any default or
to collect, enforce or defend this note or any of the Loan Documents in any lawsuit or in any probate, reorganization, bankruptcy or other proceeding, or if Maker sues any holder in connection with
this note or any of the Loan Documents and does not prevail, then Maker agrees to pay to each such holder, in connection with such default or in trying to collect this note or in any such suit or
proceeding, including reasonable attorneys' fees. An amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the unpaid principal and accrued interest owing on this note when and if this note is placed in the hands of
an attorney for collection after default is stipulated to be reasonable attorneys' fees unless a holder or the Maker timely pleads otherwise to a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent not
prohibited by applicable law, the Maker will pay all reasonable costs and expenses and reimburse the Payee for any and all reasonable expenditures of every character incurred or expended from time to
time, regardless of whether or not a default shall have occurred, in connection with the Payee's evaluating, monitoring, administrating and protecting any collateral
("Collateral") now or hereafter securing payment of this note, and creating, perfecting and realizing upon the Payee's exercising any of its rights and remedies hereunder
or under any of the other Loan Documents or at law, including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees, legal expenses, court costs, auctioneer fees and other fees incurred in connection with
liquidation of any Collateral and all other professional fees. Any amount to be paid hereunder by the Maker to the Payee shall be a demand obligation owing by the Maker to the Payee and shall bear
interest from the date of expenditure until paid at the applicable Stated Rate. 

        8.    Waivers by the Maker and Others.    Maker and any and all co-makers, endorsers, guarantors and sureties
severally waive notice (including, but not limited to, notice of intent to accelerate and notice of acceleration, notice of protest and notice of dishonor), demand, presentment for payment, protest,
diligence in collecting and the filing of suit for the purpose of fixing liability and consent that the time of payment hereof may be extended and re-extended from time to time without notice to any
of them. Each such person agrees that his, her or its liability on or with respect to this note shall not be affected by any release of or change in any guaranty or security at any time existing or by
any failure to perfect or to maintain perfection of any lien against or security interest in any such security or the partial or completed unenforceability of any guaranty or other surety obligation,
in each case in whole or in part, with or without notice and before or after maturity. 

3

 

        9.    Governing Law.    This note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas
and the United States of America from time to time in effect. Dallas County, Texas shall be the proper place of venue for suit heron. Maker and any and all co-makers, endorsers, guarantors and
sureties irrevocably agree that any legal proceeding in respect of this note or any of the other Loan Documents shall be brought in the district courts of Dallas County, Texas or the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Texas. 

        10.    Successors and Assigns.    This note and all the covenants and agreements contained herein shall be binding
upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the respective legal representatives, heirs, trustees, beneficiaries, successors and assigns of Maker and Payee. 

        11.    Business Loans.    Maker warrants and represents to Payee and all other holders of this note and all loans
evidenced by this note are and will be for business, commercial, investment or other similar purpose and not primarily for personal, family, household or agricultural use, as such terms are used in
Chapter One. Advances under this note shall be made solely for the purpose of satisfying maintenance margin requirements in connection with natural gas futures contracts to which Maker is a
party from time to time. 

        12.    Entire Agreement.    This note and the Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between
Payee and Maker and other parties with respect to the loans to be evidenced by this note and supersede all prior conflicting or inconsistent agreements, consents and understandings relating to such
subject matter. Maker acknowledges and agrees that there are no oral agreements between Maker and Payee which have not been incorporated in this note and the Loan Documents.
