 THIS STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of the Grant Date specified above, is entered into by and between Coskata, Inc., a corporation organized in the State
of Delaware (the “Company”), and the Participant specified above, pursuant to the Coskata, Inc. 2012 Incentive Compensation Plan, as in effect and as amended from time to time (the “Plan”), which is administered by
the Committee; and 
 WHEREAS, it has been determined under the Plan that it would be in the best interests of the Company to
grant the Stock Appreciation Rights (“SAR”) provided for herein to the Participant. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual covenants and promises hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows: 

1. Incorporation By Reference; Plan Document Receipt. This Agreement is subject in all respects to the terms and provisions
of the Plan (including, without limitation, any amendments thereto adopted at any time and from time to time unless such amendments are expressly intended not to apply to the Award provided hereunder), all of which terms and provisions are made a
part of and incorporated in this Agreement as if they were each expressly set forth herein. Any capitalized term not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as is ascribed thereto in the Plan. The Participant hereby acknowledges
receipt of a true copy of the Plan and that the Participant has read the Plan carefully and fully understands its content. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall
control. 
 2. Grant of SAR. The Company hereby grants to the Participant, as of the Grant Date, a SAR on the
number of shares specified above. The SAR represents the right, upon exercise, to receive either cash or a number of shares of Common Stock, or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, with a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal,
in each case, to the product of (i) the aggregate number of shares with respect to which this SAR is exercised and (ii) the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date of exercise over (B) the
SAR Base Price specified above. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, the Participant agrees and understands that nothing contained in this Agreement 

 
provides, or is intended to provide, the Participant with any protection against potential future dilution of the Participant’s interest in the Company for any reason. The Participant shall
have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by the SAR unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares, and no adjustments shall be made for dividends in cash or other property,
distributions or other rights in respect of any such shares, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or this Agreement. 
 3. Vesting and Exercise. 
 (a) Vesting. Subject to the
provisions of Section 3(b) hereof, the SAR shall vest and become exercisable as follows, provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination prior to each such vesting date: 

 

							
	 	 	Vesting Date	 	Number of Shares	 	  

		 	[•]	 	[•]	 	

 There shall be no proportionate or partial vesting in the periods prior to each vesting date and all vesting shall occur
only on the appropriate vesting date, subject to the Participant’s continued service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on each applicable vesting date. Upon expiration of the SAR, the SAR shall be cancelled and no longer exercisable.

 (b) Committee Discretion to Accelerate Vesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole
discretion, provide for accelerated vesting of the SAR at any time and for any reason. 
 (c) Expiration. Unless earlier
terminated in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Plan and/or this Agreement, all portions of the SAR (whether vested or not vested) shall expire and shall no longer be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the
Grant Date. 
 4. Termination. Subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, the SAR, to the extent vested
at the time of the Participant’s Termination, shall remain exercisable as follows: 
 (a) Termination due to Death or
Disability. In the event of the Participant’s Termination by reason of death or Disability, the vested portion of the SAR shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) one (1) year from the date of such Termination, and
(ii) the expiration of the stated term of the SAR pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof; provided, however, that in the case of a Termination due to Disability, if the Participant dies within such one (1) year exercise period,
any unexercised SAR held by the Participant shall thereafter be exercisable by the legal representative of the Participant’s estate, to the extent to which it was exercisable at the time of death, for a period of one (1) year from the date
of death, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of the SAR pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof. 
 (b)
Involuntary Termination Without Cause. In the event of the Participant’s involuntary Termination by the Company without Cause, the vested portion of the SAR shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) one hundred twenty
(120) days from the date of such Termination, and (ii) the expiration of the stated term of the SAR pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof. 

  
 2 

 (c) Voluntary Termination. In the event of the Participant’s voluntary
Termination (other than a voluntary Termination described in Section 4(d) hereof), the vested portion of the SAR shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) thirty (30) days from the date of such Termination, and (ii) the
expiration of the stated term of the SAR pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof. 
 (d) Termination for Cause. In the event
of the Participant’s Termination for Cause or in the event of the Participant’s voluntary Termination (as provided in Section 4(c) hereof) after an event that would be grounds for a Termination for Cause, the Participant’s entire
SAR (whether or not vested) shall terminate and expire upon such Termination. 
 (e) Treatment of Unvested SAR upon
Termination. Any portion of the SAR that is not vested as of the date of the Participant’s Termination for any reason shall terminate and expire as of the date of such Termination. 

5. Method of Exercise. Subject to Section 8, to the extent that all or a portion of the SAR has become vested and
exercisable, such portion of the SAR may thereafter be exercised by the Participant, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to the expiration of the SAR as provided herein and in accordance with Sections 7.4(c) and 7.4(d) of the
Plan, including, without limitation, by the filing of any written form of exercise notice as may be required by the Committee. 

6. Non-Transferability. The SAR, and any rights and interests with respect thereto, issued under this Agreement and the
Plan shall not be sold, exchanged, transferred, assigned or otherwise disposed of in any way by the Participant (or any beneficiary(ies) of the Participant), other than by testamentary disposition by the Participant or the laws of descent and
distribution. Any attempt to sell, exchange, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of or hypothecate in any way the SAR, or the levy of any execution, attachment or similar legal process upon the SAR, contrary to the terms and
provisions of this Agreement and/or the Plan shall be null and void and without legal force or effect. 
 7. Governing
Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law principles thereof.

 8. Withholding of Tax. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the
Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and foreign taxes of any kind (including, but not limited to, the Participant’s FICA and SDI obligations) which the Company, in its sole discretion,
deems necessary to be withheld or remitted to comply with the Code and/or any other applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to the SAR and, if the Participant fails to do so, the Company may otherwise refuse to issue or transfer any shares
of Common Stock otherwise required to be issued pursuant to this Agreement. Any statutorily required withholding obligation with regard to the Participant may be satisfied by reducing the amount of cash or shares of Common Stock otherwise
deliverable upon exercise of the SAR.

as the Participant may have on file with the Company. 
 11. No Right to Employment. Any questions as to whether
and when there has been a Termination and the cause of such Termination shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company, its Subsidiaries or its
Affiliates to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time, for any reason and with or without Cause. 

12. Transfer of Personal Data. The Participant authorizes, agrees and unambiguously consents to the transmission by

 Exhibit 10.7* 
 FOURTH AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 NATIONAL BANCSHARES CORPORATION
AND FIRST NATIONAL BANK 
 This FOURTH AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is entered into and made effective as
of September 20, 2011 between National Bancshares Corporation, an Ohio Corporation, and First National Bank, a federally chartered National Bank, Orrville, Ohio (collectively, the “Bank”), and David C. Vernon, an individual
(“Employee”). 
 A. The Bank and the Employee entered into an Employment Agreement (the (“Agreement”) on December 6,
2006, which provided for a fixed term of employment of twelve full months, beginning November 14, 2006. The Agreement has been amended three times and was last amended on December 21, 2010. By that last amendment, the Employment Period was
extended through December 31, 2012 with an automatic extension to December 31, 2013 unless the Employee receives written notice by November 30, 2012 from the Bank’s Board of Directors that the Employment Period will end on
December 31, 2012. 
 B. The Bank values the services and contributions that Employee has made during his years of service to the Bank and
seeks to retain his services, and extend the Employment Period through April 24, 2014, in light of its intention to appoint a successor President and Chief Executive Officer effective January 1, 2012. 

C. The Parties agree that the Employment Agreement presently requires that the Bank pay Employee his base salary ($250,000) and benefits for the
Employment Period (i.e., through December 31, 2012); 
 D. In order to facilitate the Bank’s succession plan, Employee will accept a
consulting role with the Bank, which he shall perform until April 24, 2014, and accept the Bank’s modification of the payment schedule of his base salary thereby facilitating management succession by continuing to make his banking
expertise available to the Bank. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises set forth in this Fourth
Amendment, the Bank and the Employee agree as follows: 
 1. Section 1. Term of Employment. Section 1 of the Agreement,
as last amended on December 21, 2010, is hereby amended a fourth time by deleting “The Employment Period will end on December 31, 2012 and automatically extends for one year periods thereafter unless the Employee receives written
notice from the Board of Directors, on or before November 30, 2012 that the Employment Period will end on December 31, 2012” and substituting “The Employment Period shall be extended to and expire on April 24, 2014.”

 2. Section 2. Duties. Section 2 of the Agreement, as last amended on November 18, 2008, is hereby amended again by
deleting the current text in its entirety and substituting in all of the following text: Employee agrees to serve the Bank and its President and Chief Executive Officer through December 31, 2011. In that capacity, Employee shall have
responsibility for the operation of the Bank, and to perform all duties for the Bank as may be reasonably requested by the Board of Directors or its designee. Employee will devote his efforts diligently and faithfully to the business and welfare of
the Bank in accordance with and in furtherance of the policies and directives of the Board. Provided, however, that Employee shall not be precluded from engaging in other incidental business activities or investments including, but not limited to,
serving on boards of directors and hold other offices and positions in companies which in the Board’s judgment will not present any conflict of interest with the Bank or otherwise interfere with the Performance of his duties for the bank or the
obligations contained in this Agreement. Bank acknowledges that Employee presently serves as Vice Chairman of CFBank and agrees that Employee’s performance of his duties as Vice Chairman of CFBank shall not be precluded by this agreement or by
the Bank. 
 From January 1, 2012 through April 24, 2014, Employee shall serve the Bank, the Board and successor management to consult
with regard to his banking and financial services expertise and make it available to those parties. 

 3. Section 3.1 Salary. Section 3.1 of the Agreement, which was last amended on
November 18, 2008, is hereby amended again by adding the following text: As of January 1, 2012, the Bank shall cease paying Employee the annual base salary ($250,000) and begin paying Employee at the rate of Nine Thousand Five Hundred and
00/100 Dollars ($9,500.00) per month, less applicable deductions and withholdings, for the remainder of the Employment Period, which ends on April 24, 2014. 
 4. Section 4.1 In General. Except for employee and executive bonuses, Employee shall be entitled to participate in all benefit plans maintained by the Bank for its employees generally
consistent with the Bank’s practices and provided he satisfies all applicable eligibility requirements for the period ending December 31, 2012. Thereafter Employee shall not be eligible for benefits. 

Section 4.2 Expenses. The Bank shall reimburse Employee for reasonable expenses incurred by him on behalf of the Bank in the
performance of his duties provided Employee furnishes the Bank with the appropriate documentation required by the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder in connection with such expenses. 

5. All provisions of the Agreement, other than as modified in the First Amendment dated November 20, 2007, the Second Amendment dated
November 18, 2008, the Third Amendment dated December 21, 2010 and this Fourth Amendment, are hereby ratified and shall remain in full force and effect. 
 Intending to be legally bound, the Parties have executed this Fourth Amendment effective as of the date first above written.
