     4.      USE OF TRADEMARKS AND TRADE NAMES.

             A.    Conoco hereby gives Marketer permission to use Conoco's
trademarks, trade names and brand names in conjunction with the advertising,
distribution or sale of Conoco branded products or other products selected by
Conoco for sale under the Conoco trademarks or trade names, in accordance with
the standards set forth in Conoco's Image and Programs Manuals. Subject to the
terms of this Agreement, Conoco shall make available to Marketer and authorize
it to display signs and insignia bearing Conoco's trademarks and/or Conoco trade
names. Marketer shall prominently display such Conoco trademarks and trade
names. Marketer acknowledges and recognizes Conoco's interest in all its
trademarks and trade names and the exclusive right of Conoco to control the use
of these trademarks or trade names.

             B.    For the benefit of consumers, Marketer shall display in or
on the retail outlet building, in a prominent, conspicuous location, the name of
the outlet's operator and the outtet's address, as more specifically set out in
the Conoco Image Manual, which is incorporated herein by this reference.
Furthermore, if Marketer uses Conoco's trademarks or trade names in conjunction
with advertising or forms, Marketer must properly identify itself as a "Products
Marketer" adjacent to Conoco's marks.

             C.    Upon the termination or nonrenewal of this Agreement,
Marketer shall immediately cease holding itself out to the public as a Conoco
marketer; and upon such termination or nonrenewal, or the debranding for any
reason of an individual retail outlet, Marketer shall immediately discontinue,
and ensure that any affected retailer supplied by Marketer discontinues, the use
of trademarks, trade names, and trade dress of Conoco, and remove from the
premises and surrender to Conoco, at Marketer's risk and expense, any and all
trademark and trade name identification, including credit card imprinters, which
makes it appear that Marketer is an authorized Conoco-branded distributor. If a
retailer supplied by Marketer, and listed on Exhibit A-1 hereunder, refuses to
cooperate in the removal of the Conoco trademarks, trade names, and trade dress
(such as, but not limited to, pump skirts), Marketer, at Marketer's expense,
shall be responsible for such removal and for taking appropriate measures to
ensure that Conoco's brand identifcation is removed from all affected outlets.
If Marketer fails to remove such Conoco brand identifcation from the premises,
Conoco may enter and remove it at the expense of Marketer, including any
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.

             D.    Marketer shall obtain prior written approval from a Conoco
Marketing Manager - Wholesale of all retail outlets which Marketer desires to
brand Conoco, and keep Conoco informed of the current volumes of its
Conoco-branded retail outlets, set forth on Exhibit "A-1." Marketer acknowledges
Conoco's right to approve or disapprove the branding of any retail outlet in its
sole discretion.

             E.    Marketer shall obtain for each Conoco-branded retail
outlet supplied by Marketer and operated by a party other than Marketer, an
executed copy of Exhibit "C." Marketer shall return one copy of such exhibit to
Conoco. So long as Marketer supplies a Conoco-branded retail outlet, Marketer
shall also obtain, and ensure that Conoco receives, an executed Exhibit "C" from
each and every subsequent retailer who operates the Conoco-branded retail
outlet.

             F.    Marketer shall not, without Conoco's prior consent, offer
for sale nor sell any petroleum products under any of Conoco's brands,
trademarks, service marks, or trade names, unless such products were purchased
from Conoco. With Conoco's prior consent, Marketer may sell other than Conoco
petroleum products (but not "unbranded Conoco products") under the Conoco
brands, trademarks, service marks, or trade names for limited periods, provided
the other products meet Conoco's specifications, and Conoco shall have the right
to test and inspect such other products. Marketer may not sell "unbranded Conoco
products" under any of Conoco's brands, trademarks, service marks, or trade
names, even though such "unbranded Conoco products" are purchased from Conoco.
Marketer shall use Conoco's brands, trademarks, services marks, or trade names
only in a form and manner approved by Conoco, and shall not sell any products,
whether purchased from Conoco or not, under any brand, trademark, service mark,
or trade name which is confusingly similar to any Conoco brand, trademark,
service mark, or trade name, or under any circumstances likely to cause
confusion, mistake, or deception as to the origin, source, or sponsorship of the
products.

             G.    Conoco reserves the right at any time to change its
product line and specifcations, trade dress, trade names, and trademarks or to
change or withdraw any services offered in connection with any products such as,
but not limited to, credit card acceptance. In the event of such change, Conoco
shall be relieved of all obligation to sell such discontinued product, etc., to
Marketer; and if Conoco shall market any other brand or product in lieu of the
discontinued items, this Agreement shall embrace such new brands or products.
Conoco shall not be liable to Marketer by reason of any such changes.

     5.      BRAND AND IMAGE STANDARDS. Consistent with the principles herein
set forth, including but not limited to Section 18 of this Agreement,
Marketer shall conduct its independent business operations in compliance
with the standards set forth below, which will promote the continuing good
reputation of Conoco and all other Conoco marketers. Marketer shall ensure
to Conoco that the operators and/or retailers of Conoco-branded retail
outlets supplied by Marketer also comply with these standards.

             A.    All persons on Conoco-branded premises must be treated
fairly, honestly, and courteously, and customer complaints must be handled in
accordance with Section 6 below. Likewise, in addition to the public, Marketer
shall conduct its operation to provide effcient, courteous, and diligent service
to its retailers and other customers.

             B.    Marketer shall comply with the provisions of Conoco's Image
Manual, which is incorporated herein by this reference, and which may be
revised from time to lime at Conoco's sole discretion.

                                     2

             C.    Each retail outlet, in its entirety, including the grounds,
must be clean, in good repair, and well maintained.

             D.    Each retail outlet must complement the community and the
environment. Furthermore, each retail outlet must not allow any offensive
merchandise or activity which may bring the Conoco brand into disrepute.

             E.    Each retail outlet must be operated with personnel who are
well groomed and wear clean, appropriate apparel.

             F.    Each retail outlet must make best efforts to prominently
display and sell Conoco-branded motor oils.

             G.    Marketer and the operators and/or retailers of retail
outlets supplied by Marketer shall comply with all applicable petroleum
product regulations, including, without limitation, those set forth in
Exhibit "B" of this Agreement, as revised from time to time

             H.    To ensure consistent quality and brand image, each retail
outlet must attain passing grades in Conoco's Image Evaluation Program,
described in Conoco's Image Manual. The Image Execution form in use on the
date of this Agreement may be obtained from Conoco at any time, and is
incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. If an outlet fails an
image evaluation (hereinafter referred to as the "primary image
evaluation"), it will be re-evaluated approximately 45 days after the
primary image evaluation. If the outlet fails the re-evaluation, it will be
debranded. It is understood and agreed that a retail outlet will also be
debranded for habitual failures if it fails three (3) primary image
evaluations in a row even though the outlet is able to pass each
re-evaluation. Marketer specifcally understands and agrees that the image
requirements contained in this Agreement are reasonable and of material
significance to this Agreement Conoco reserves the right to amend the Image
Evaluation Program set forth above or the Image Execution form at any time
upon 30 days' written notice to Marketer.

             I.    Any exception to the above standards in this Section 4
requires the written approval of the appropriate Conoco Branded Marketing
management.

     6.      CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS. Marketer shall manage customer complaints in
accordance with Conoco's customer complaint process that will be provided
to Marketer from time to time. Marketer shall ensure that all retail stores
supplied by Marketer are aware of and comply with the customer complaint
process. Marketer is responsible for providing feedback to Conoco, within
five (5) business days from receipt of the complaint, concerning the
corrective action which Marketer has taken or will take. If the corrective
action requires more than five (5) business days, Marketer shall provide
Conoco with status updates within each 5-day business period until the
corrective action is complete. In situations where the severity of the
complaint, in Conoco's opinion, requires more timely response, the Marketer
shall respond as requested by Conoco. In situations where the customer
complaint involves allegations of abusive language, sexual harassment,
discriminatory treatment, physical altercation, or personal injury,
Marketer will contact Conoco's Customer Service group within 24 hours.
Marketer agrees that the provisions contained in this Section 6 are
reasonable and of matenal significance to this Agreement, and further
understands and acknowledges that it is reasonable for Conoco to debrand
any retail outlet if Marketer fails to take reasonable action to satisfy
customer complaints as outlined in this Section with regard to such retail
outlet.

     7.      PROGRAMS.

             A.    Conoco shall provide to Marketer and Marketer shall comply
with the provisions of Conoco's Programs Manual, which is incorporated
herein by this reference, and which Conoco may revise from time to time at
its sole discretion.

             B.    Conoco shall make available to Marketer, on such terms as
Conoco and Marketer may agree and within the confines of existing laws and
regulations, advertising and promotional materials, including materials
Marketer may require to participate in such promotional plans as Conoco may
undertake to sponsor, and materials necessary for participation in such
promotional plans as Conoco may provide and Marketer may sponsor.

     8.      PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION. Consistent with the principles herein set
forth, including but not limited to Section 18 of this Agreement. Marketer
shall conduct its independent business operations in compliance with the
standards set forth below, which will promote the continuing good
reputation of Conoco and all other Conoco marketers. Marketer shall ensure
to Conoco that the operators and/or retailers of Conoco-branded retail
outlets supplied by Marketer also comply with these standards:

             A.    As stated in more detail in Section 4 above, Marketer may
only use the Conoco trademarks and/or trade names in connection with any
advertising, distribution or sale of Conoco-branded products or other
products selected by Conoco for sale under the Conoco trademark.

             B.    Marketer may not adulterate, misbrand or mislabel motor
fuels sold hereunder.

             C.    Marketer agrees not to sell any Gasoline or Distillate
under the Conoco brand which does not contain the additives which are
required by Conoco at any given time.

                                     3

<Page>

             D.    Marketer understands and agrees that, except for octane
blending of pure gasolines, no blended gasolines shall be sold hereunder
unless previously approved by Conoco in writing.

             E.    No alternative motor fuel as defined by the Energy Policy
Act of 1992 shall be sold from a premises displaying the Conoco trademarks
or trade names unless the alternative motor fuel is supplied by Conoco or
by a supplier approved in writing by Conoco. Additionally, there is a
separate agreement which must be executed before selling alternative motor
fuels from a premises or dispenser displaying the Conoco trademarks or
trade names.

                   Alternative fuels sold as non-motor fuel must not be in the
Conoco trade dress, must not be sold from the pump islands or in close
proximity to the pump islands, and must be clearly marked with a non-Conoco
trademark.

             F.    Marketer agrees that the provisions contained in this
Section 8 are reasonable and of material significance to this Agreement.
Marketer further understands and acknowledges that, given the seriousness
of the violation, it is reasonable for Conoco to debrand any retail outlet
which is in violation of said provisions, or to terminate this Agreement in
its entirety where the violation involves multiple retail outlets, upon ten
(10) days' written notice to Marketer.

             G.   Notwithstanding Conoco's right to debrand or terminate in
Section F above, the first time that Conoco determines that a violation of
the provisions contained in this Section 8 has occurred at one or more
Conoco-branded retail outlets supplied by Marketer, Conoco shall give
Marketer an election of either (1) debranding or termination as set forth
above or (2) a one-time warning and Marketer's payment to Conoco of a fine
of $5,000 per violating outlet, via EFT. If Marketer elects to pay the
fine, but in fact does not do so, Conoco may immediately debrand the
violating outlet(s) or terminate this Agreement in its entirety, whichever
is applicable. If, at the same Conoco-branded retail outlet(s), a second
violation of the provisions of this Section 8 occurs, or the violation is
continuing, Conoco shall debrand such outlet(s) or terminate this Agreement
in its entirety, whichever is applicable, upon giving Marketer ten (10)
days' written notice. Conoco reserves the right to terminate this Agreement
in whole or with regard to particular retail outlet(s) without first giving
Marketer such election in situations where Conoco, in its sole discretion,
deems the violation to be so serious or widespread that a right to cure is
unreasonable.

     9.      RIGHT TO INSPECT. Marketer shall permit such inspection of
Marketer's business operations by Conoco, its employees and agents, as may
reasonably be required to determine whether Marketer is in compliance with the
Agreement. To ensure the integrity of Conoco-branded products, Conoco reserves
the right to take samples, to take meter readings, and to inspect bills of
lading and other relevant business records during business hours at Marketer's
place of business or at any retail unit supplied by Marketer hereunder with
Conoco-branded products. Marketer shall ensure on a timely basis that Marketer,
its employees and agents, as well as Conoco, its employees and agents, are
permitted to inspect Conoco-branded retail outlets (excluding all subsurface
equipment) supplied by Marketer at Marketer's and/or Conoco's discretion, as
may be reasonably required to determine whether the retail outlets are in
compliance with this Agreement.

     10.     PRICE. For Gasoline or Distillate sold and/or delivered hereunder,
Marketer shall pay Conoco's established branded marketer rack price or such
other price, as Conoco deems appropriate and in effect for such Gasoline or
Distillate on the date of such delivery, subject to the provisions regarding
imposition of federal, state, or local taxes, license fees, inspection fees, or
other charges imposed by any governmental authority or agency. Discounts, when
applicable, will be allowed on the amount of the invoice less all such taxes,
fees or charges.

     11.     PAYMENT TERMS.

             A.    Normal payment terms apply for so long as Marketer is
approved by Conoco for a line of credit. Normal payment terms hereunder shall be
Conoco's established payment terms for Gasoline and Distillate sold to branded
marketers, as established from time to time. As set forth in Section 12 below,
assigned credit card invoices shall be automatically applied to Marketer's
outstanding account balance for product purchases and other amounts owing to
Conoco. All payments and other fees or charges due from Marketer shall be made
through and in accordance with Conoco's Preauthorized Payment System (Electronic
Funds Transfer or "EFT") or in a manner otherwise designated by Conoco.

             B.    Normal payment terms do not apply to purchases that cause
Marketer to exceed its approved credit limit. Notwithstanding payment terms
printed on any invoice, if Marketer's outstanding payment obligations exceed the
credit limit, payment terms for the overlimit amount shall be immediate payment
in advance of due dates, unless Conoco's Treasury Department approves a
temporary higher credit limit. The payment shall be made by wire transfer in an
amount sufficient to bring such payment obligations within the credit limit.

             C.    Conoco may assess a delinquency charge on all overdue sums
owing to Conoco. Such delinquency charge shall be determined in accordance
with applicable law.

             D.    If Conoco refers Marketer's account for collection, Marketer
agrees to pay all collection costs permitted by applicable law, including any
and all reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs, and allowable interest
necessary to secure collection, in addition to the outstanding balance. In the
event this Agreement is terminated for nonpayment or for failure to pay timely
all sums due Conoco, then no liability shall exist for any undelivered products
hereunder.

                                     4

     12.     CREDIT CARDS.

             A.    Marketer shall grant credit, and shall cause the Retailers it
supplies to grant credit, to holders of all Conoco accepted credit cards at
Marketer's and its retailers' places of business where Conoco marketing
standards are maintained, as outlined in the Credit Card Guide, and subject to
the terms thereof. "Conoco accepted credit cards" are described in the Conoco
Credit Card Guide for Dealers and Retail Stores, which is incorporated herein by
this reference and which may be revised from time to time or discontinued at
Conoco's sole discretion, and which may be supplemented with "Credit Facts",
DTN/Easy Link Messages, and other forms of notification to Marketer and retail
outlets supplied by Marketer (all referred to collectively as the "Credit Card
Guide"). Examples within the Credit Card Guide include, but are not limited to
Conoco Standard, Conoco Premium, Conoco Visa, Conoco Fleet, Visa, Mastercard,
American Express, Discover, Voyager, PHH, Donlen, and Wright Express. Marketer
agrees to pay processing fees associated with the acceptance of third party
cards, which are referenced in the Programs Manual.

             B.    Marketer shall ensure that each retail outlet it supplies,
whether owned and/or operated by Marketer or a retailer supplied by Marketer,
has and uses a Conoco-approved Electronic Point of Sale ("EPOS") System. Each
retail outlet must process, at a minimum, Conoco Standard, Conoco Premium,
Conoco Visa, Conoco Fleet, Voyager, PHH, Donlen, and Wright Express cards
through the EPOS network designated by Conoco. Marketer agrees to pay EPOS
system and network fees associated with the processing of credit card
transactions electronically, which are referenced in the Programs Manual.

             C.    Conoco shall accept assignment of Conoco credit card invoices
from all Conoco accepted credit cards, subject to the terms and conditions in
the Credit Card Guide. Marketer shall refuse to honor Conoco credit cards for
purchases made at locations other than those approved by Conoco and listed on
Exhibit A-1, and shall not assign invoices to Conoco for sales or purchases made
at outlets not previously approved by Conoco. Marketer shall accept and promptly
reimburse Conoco for invoices refused by Conoco in accordance with the
provisions of the Credit Card Guide. Except as otherwise stated in this
Subsection C., assigned credit card invoices shall be automatically applied to
Marketer's outstanding account balance for product purchases and other amounts
owing to Conoco.

     13.     FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. When requested by Conoco, Marketer
agrees to provide periodic personal financial statements, periodic business
balance sheets, and income statements, in addition to applicable notes and
schedules, and other information necessary for Conoco to render a decision
on a line of credit, and/or to furnish reasonable collateral, guarantees,
and/or other security to support a line of credit. Provided, however,
nothing herein shall give Marketer the right to receive credit, unless it
is expressly granted by Conoco. Similarly, nothing herein shall give
Marketer the right to exceed any credit limit established for Marketer by
Conoco.

             Marketer's failure to provide such financial information and/or
collateral satisfactory to Conoco may result in Conoco's denial of credit to
Marketer. Furthermore, if in Conoco's sole judgment, Marketer's ability to
pay/creditworthiness is unsatisfactory or deteriorates, or if Marketer fails to
fulfll the payment terms, Conoco may without prejudice to any other lawful
remedy, defer shipment until payment is made, deny credit and demand cash
payment, or immediately terminate or non-renew this Agreement pursuant to
paragraph 2.B of this Agreement.

             If Marketer fails to make a timely payment of any amount due, in
accordance with the terms hereof, then Conoco shall, in addition to any other
rights or remedies available to it, have the right, but not the obligation, to
recoup or set off against any amount then or thereafter due to Marketer,
including, but not limited to, any amounts due Marketer for the assignment to
Conoco of credit card invoices pursuant to paragraph 3 of this Agreement, up to
the total amount outstanding.

             EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT BY CONOCO SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE
APPROVAL OF A LINE OF CREDIT FOR MARKETER.

     14.     TAXES. Marketer shall pay to Conoco, in addition to applicable
prices hereunder, any applicable taxes, license fees, inspection fees,
environmental fees or other charges imposed by any governmental or regulatory
authority or agency on, or measured by, gross receipts from any products sold
hereunder, or levied on the production, manufacture, transportation, sale,
delivery, or levied on volumes sold or delivered, or other handling of products
under this Agreement. Failure of Conoco to add any such tax, fee or charge to
the invoice shall not relieve Marketer from liability therefor. Marketer shall
reimburse Conoco for any interest and/or penalty assessed by any governmental or
regulatory authority or agency when the penalty and/or interest is assessed as
the result of false, incorrect or delinquent certification(s) made to Conoco by
Marketer.

     15.     TERMS OF DELIVERY AND ALLOCATION. The sale by Conoco and purchase
by Marketer of Conoco products shall be accomplished in accordance with
Exhibit "A." The amount of product to be supplied to Marketer shall be
subject to any good faith allocation program which Conoco may find
necessary to effect for any reason, including, but not limited to, shortage
of product or government regulations. Conoco shall have the right to impose
a surcharge on any gallons purchased which exceed 100 % of Marketer's
allocation.

             In the event Conoco's inventory, ability to refine or sources of
supply of crude petroleum or refined petroleum products are not suffcient to
meet demand at Marketer's normal or assigned distribution points (regardless of
whether Conoco may have diverted supply to other distribution points to
alleviate shortages at such other distribution points). Conoco shall not be
bound to acquire by purchase or otherwise additional quantities of crude
petroleum or refined petroleum products from other suppliers or to take any
other action which is uneconomic to Conoco. No allocation pursuant to this
paragraph shall operate to extend the period of this Agreement and Conoco shall
not be obligated to make available any quantities omitted due to any allocation
program.

                                     5

<Page>

             All orders will be filled with reasonable promptness but Conoco
shall not be held responsible when deliveries are delayed or prevented by fire,
storm, flood, strike, riots, wars or political disturbances in this or any other
country, differences with or refusal of any employees of Conoco or of its agent
or distributor to deliver, disruption or breakdown of transportation, or any
cause beyond Conoco's control, whether of any class of causes referred to or
not. If by reason of any of said causes Conoco shall be unable to supply the
requirements of all of its customers of any product covered hereby in the area
in which sales are to be made hereunder. Conoco's obligation while such
inability exists shall at its option be reduced with allocation in accordance
with this paragraph.

             Marketer will receive Conoco products from a supply point
designated by Conoco and Conoco shall have the right at any time to change
Marketer's designated supply point or to limit or otherwise control the volume
of Marketer's Exhibit "A" volume which Conoco will make available at any supply
point.

             All shipments shall be invoiced as of date shown on Bill of Lading.
Invoices will be rendered on a net basis (normal temperature 60 degrees
Fahrenheit with gallonage adjustments as provided for in the abridged Volume
Correction Table for Petroleum Oils), or in accordance with any existing state
law. In the absence of state law to the contrary, Marketer may elect annually,
for each state where Marketer purchases products from Conoco, to purchase on a
basis other than net, by mutual written agreement between Conoco and Marketer.

             If Marketer transports its own product from the terminal or other
supply point, Marketer shall qualify with Conoco or the terminal operator to
enter on the premises and Marketer shall execute necessary documents. Minimum
transport quantity shall be the minimum set by the terminal operator.

     16.     TRANSFER OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement is personal to Marketer and
assignable or transferable by Marketer only with the prior written consent of
Conoco, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Marketer understands,
however, that Conoco may condition its consent to any assignment upon the
agreement of the proposed assignee to: (1) enter into a Trial Franchise in
conformity to the provisions of the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act; and (2)
simultaneously therewith, enter into a Mutual Cancellation of this Agreement.
Refusal of the proposed assignee or transferee to enter into such Trial
Franchise and Mutual Cancellation shall conclusively be adequate reason for
Conoco to withhold its consent to the assignment.

     17.     NONWAIVER. Subject to the provisions of the Petroleum Marketing
Practices Act and any other applicable provision of law, no course of dealing
between the parties or any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right it
may have under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any of the rights
provided hereunder or by law or equity, nor shall any waiver of any prior breach
or default operate as the waiver of any subsequent breach or default, and no
express waiver will affect any term or condition other than the one specified in
such waiver and the express waiver will apply only for the time and manner
specifically stated.

             EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT BY CONOCO SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE
AUTOMATIC APPROVAL OF THE IMAGE OF ANY CONOCO-BRANDED RETAIL OUTLET OR
CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OF THE REQUIREMENT THAT EVERY CONOCO-BRANDED RETAIL OUTLET
MUST COMPLY WITH CONOCO'S IMAGE STANDARDS, AS SET FORTH HEREIN.

     18.     RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. Marketer is an independent business
and is not, nor are its employees, an employee of Conoco. Conoco and
Marketer are completely separate entities. They are not partners, general
partners, limited partners, joint venturers, nor agents of each other in any
sense whatsoever and neither has the power to obligate or bind the other.

             Further, nothing herein contained is intended, nor shall it be
construed as reserving to Conoco rights or powers to exercise control over the
business practices of Marketer or to direct the manner in which its business
operations shall be conducted; except, Conoco may take reasonable actions to
promote compliance with the standards set forth above and may provide such
instructions, guidance, and recommendations as may be necessary and desirable to
promote the mutual objectives of Conoco and Marketer, including the promotion of
public goodwill toward Conoco, its trademarks and trade names, and the
reputation of Conoco products. Conoco shall have no control whatsoever over
Marketer's resale prices of the products purchased hereunder.

     19.     SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement prohibited by law or
by court decree in any locality or state shall be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition without in any way invalidating or otherwise affecting
the remaining provisions of this Agreement within states and localities where
not prohibited by law or court decree.

     20.     NOTICES. Any notice in connection with this Agreement shall be made
in writing and sent by certified mail or delivered personally to Conoco at

together with the reasons therefor;

             B.    The date on which such termination or nonrenewal will take
effect; and

             C.    A copy of the Summary of Title I of the Petroleum Marketing

     21.     PREVIOUS AGREEMENTS. THIS AGREEMENT SUPERSEDES ALL PRIOR AND
CURRENT PETROLEUM MARKETER AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND IT CONTAINS
EACH AND EVERY UNDERSTANDING OF THE PARTIES RELATING TO THE SUBJECT COVERED
HEREBY. NO VERBAL REPRESENTATIONS, STATEMENTS OR AGREEMENTS OF ANY NATURE
RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY RELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN THE PARTIES WILL BE CONSIDERED VALID OR ENFORCEABLE.

     22.     INDEMNITY. Marketer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
Conoco, and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and
representatives, harmless from any and all claims, demands, suits, actions
or other loss or liability, including all reasonable attorney's fees and
legal expenses, fines, and penalties (hereinafter collectively the
"Liabilities"), arising out of any claim or cause of action at law or in
equity, or any administrative or judicial action, concerning or relating to
any loss, loss of use of, remediation of, or damage to property or natural
resources (including, but not limited to, that arising from storage tank
leaks or spills, waste disposal, or air emissions), personal injuries,
death, violation of any governmental laws, regulations, or orders or patent
or trademark infringement or environmental claims arising in any manner out
of Marketer's or Marketer's retailer's operations, including but not limited
to, the loading, transportation, unloading, storage, handling, sale, or use
of Conoco products sold hereunder, or from Marketer's performance or
failure to perform under this Agreement, whether or not Marketer was
negligent or otherwise at fault. Provided, however, such indemnifcation
obligations shall not apply:

             A. To the percentage of such Liabilities, if any, attributable
to Conoco's negligence or willful misconduct, or

             B. When such Liabilities are caused by defects in the Conoco
product not caused or contributed to by any act or omission of Marketer or
Marketer's employees, contractors, agents or retailers,

                Conoco shall have the right, but not the duty, to participate
in the defense of any claim or litigation with attorneys of Conoco's
selection. Once Marketer has assumed the defense of Conoco, Conoco
shall-have the right to participate in the defense of the claims or
litigation, but it shall do so at its own expense.

                Marketer's obligations in this Section 22 shall survive any
termination or nonrenewal of this Agreement.

     23.     WARRANTIES. Conoco warrants that the products it delivers
hereunder shall meet Conoco's then current product specifications for the
respective products and shall be in merchantable condition. UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL CONOCO BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL,
SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

     24.     MARKETER CLAIMS/LAWSUITS. Conoco shall not be liable to Marketer
for breach of this Agreement or for any other claim by Marketer, unless
Marketer provides Conoco with written notice of the incident (which forms
the basis of the alleged breach or claim) within 90 days of the occurrence
of the incident and files suit within 1 year after the occurrence of the
incident.

             Notwithstanding the above paragraph, Conoco shall not be
liable to Marketer for any defect in quality or shortage in quantity of any
product delivered hereunder unless (a) Marketer notifies Conoco of
Marketer's claim immediately but no later than within 24 hours after
delivery thereof, or in the case of any latent defect in quality,
immediately but no later than within 24 hours after Marketer's discovery of
such defect, and (b) Conoco is given a reasonable opportunity to inspect
the product and to take and test samples thereof. Marketer's failure to
specify any shortage, defect or nonconformity shall constitute a waiver of
that defect or nonconformity.

     25.     AMENDMENT. Except as otherwise specified herein, this Agreement
can only be amended by an agreement in writing which is signed by both
parties.

     26.     EXHIBITS. Exhibits "A" through "D" are attached hereto and are
made a part of this Agreement.

     27.     BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and
be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and
assigns of the respective parties hereto.

     28.     PETROLEUM MARKETING PRACTICES ACT. Conoco and Marketer hereby
expressly reserve their rights under the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act
(75 US.C. 2807 et seq.). No omission of any reference herein to any such
specific right shall constitute a waiver.

     29.     YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE.

             A.    The parties to this Agreement warrant that their performance
will not be adversely affected by the improper processing of date-related data
by their computer systems, software or other equipment. Further, each party
agrees to obtain a similar warranty from their contractors, subcontractors,
and suppliers whose performance is material to that party's contractual
obligations. The parties will use reasonable commercial efforts to cooperate
and share information to minimize the impact of any Year 2000 Problem on
performance of this Agreement. Further, each party will inform the other party
of any possible obstacle to compliance with this article and the steps being
taken to avoid or overcome the obstacle.

             B.    If a party complies with Subsection A, then it will not be
liable for a breach of this Agreement to the extent such breach arises out of
a Year 2000 problem by the party's suppliers/subcontractors or arises out or
circumstances beyond the party's control (e.g. a failure on the party of a
governmental entity).

             C.     A "Year 2000 Problem" means a failure to correctly perform,
process and handle date related data which adversely impacts the use and/or
operation of software, equipment or a computer system.

     30.     SPECIAL CONDITIONS.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed
as of the date first above written.

least 90% of the sum of the above listed monthly Gasoline volumes for
each 3 month period beginning every January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1
shall be a violation of this Agreement, unless Marketer has obtained Conoco's

such quarterly violation under this Agreement shall result in Marketer's
receipt of a warning letter. Any further quarterly violation, after a grace
quarter (which is the quarter next following the quarter in which the first
violation occurred), shall result in the termination of this Agreement upon
Conoco's giving 90 days' written notice to Marketer.

     B.    RATABLE LIFTINGS - GASOLINE. Marketer agrees to purchase the
specified monthly volumes of Gasoline ratably. Conoco, at its option, may,

herein by Marketer are reasonable, important, and of material significance to
the franchise relationship.

     C.    RATABLE LIFTINGS - DISTILLATE. Marketer agrees to purchase the

and cancels all previous Exhibits "A" to this Petroleum Marketer Agreement.

Conoco's failure to exercise any of its rights hereunder or any of those

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 (State complete address of Jobber's principal office including street address,
          city and zip code. A post office box is NOT sufficient.)

Now, Therefore, Amoco and Jobber, intending to be legally bound, agree to the
following:

1.  TERM. The term covered by this Contract shall be for a period beginning on
JANUARY 1 1999 and ending on DECEMBER 31 2001, unless terminated earlier by
law or by the terms of this contract or unless extended by Amoco upon written
notice, subject to Jobber's rights under Schedule A.

2.  PRODUCTS AND QUANTITIES (SCHEDULE A). Amoco agrees to sell and Jobber agrees
to purchase and receive Amoco's currently offered and available branded
petroleum products ("Products"), as determined and designated by Amoco in its
sole discretion and as more fully and specifically set forth in Schedule A, a
copy of which is attached to and incorporated in this Contract. Jobber agrees to
purchase these Products in the quantities set forth in Schedule A, as amended
from time to time.

3.  PURCHASE AND SALE OF PRODUCTS.

     (a) PRICES. The price per gallon which Jobber shall pay for each Product
         sold under this Contract shall be Amoco's Jobber Buying Price, as
         recorded at the applicable Amoco regional office, business unit
         office or such other office as Amoco may designate from time to
         time, in effect on the date of sale from the respective Amoco
         terminal(s) assigned to Jobber ("Jobber's Assigned Terminal's)").
         Jobber's Assigned Terminal(s) shall be determined and designated by
         Amoco in its sole discretion and set forth in Schedule A, as amended
         from time to time.

     (b) TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS. Title and risk of loss to all Products sold

4.  PAYMENT TERMS.

     (a) CREDIT. Nothing in this Contract shall be construed as obligating
         Amoco to extend credit to Jobber. In the event Amoco does extend
         credit to Jobber, such extension of credit shall be subject to the
         following requirements, including but not limited to: paying for all
         Product purchases by electronic funds transfer ("EFT"); submitting
         an annual financial statement; and executing an unlimited personal
         guaranty. Jobber shall also provide Amoco with a letter of credit or
         other form of security, upon Amoco's request. Amoco reserves the
         right to change its credit terms at any time either for the class of
         trade generally or for Jobber individually. In no instance shall the
         terms of any sale discounts apply to taxes, inspection fees and the
         like. One or more incidents of failure by Jobber to make payment
         according to established credit terms, including checks or EFTs
         which are dishonored for nonsufficient or uncollected funds, or
         failure to supply financial information or documentation as
         required, shall entitle Amoco to suspend deliveries, impose C.O.D.
         terms, and/or terminate this Contract, in addition to exercising any
         other rights Amoco may have under this Contract or at law.

     (b) FINANCE AND SERVICE CHARGES. Amoco shall, at its election, assess
         finance charges on all amounts not paid by Jobber on the net due
         date. Finance charges shall be assessed at the monthly periodic rate
         established by Amoco for Jobber's class of trade and the respective
         Product. Amoco shall impose a service charge for each check and/or
         EFT which is dishonored for nonsufficient or uncollected funds,
         whether or not subsequently paid by Jobber.

     (a) USE OF MARKS GENERALLY. Jobber shall be permitted to use, and shall be
         permitted to allow the reseller/dealer-customers it supplies with
         Products purchased under this Contract ("Jobber-Dealers") to use, on a
         limited and non-exclusive basis, Amoco's trademarks, service marks,
         companion marks, trade names, brand names, trade dress symbols, logos,
         color schemes, design schemes, insignia, image standards and the like
         ("Marks") in connection with the advertising, distribution and/or
         resale of the Products authorized by, supplied by and/or purchased from
         Amoco under this Contract.

     (b) USE OF MARKS GOVERNED BY THIS CONTRACT AND RELATED AGREEMENTS. The
         permission to use Amoco's Marks shall be governed by the terms and
         conditions of this Contract and all related contracts, including all
         schedules, appendices and amendments attached to and incorporated in
         those agreements. In addition, Amoco's Marks shall only be used in
         accordance with the guidelines, policies, procedures, requirements,
         specifications and standards issued by Amoco, as amended from time to
         time, including but not limited to Amoco's Policy for Proper Handling
         of Amoco-branded Motor Fuels by Amoco Jobbers.

     (c) USE OF MARKS ON SIGNAGE. Jobber shall be permitted to acquire and
         display approved signage bearing Amoco's Marks, in connection with the
         advertising, distribution and/or resale of Products under this
         Contract, on a retail site specific basis. Under no circumstances will
         Jobber be allowed to relocate signage bearing Amoco's Marks to another
         retail site without Amoco's consent. Jobber shall provide Amoco with a
         list of all signage bearing Amoco's Marks in Jobber's possession and/or
         control and the location of said signage, upon Amoco's request. In
         addition to the terms and conditions of this Contract, the use of
         Amoco's Marks on all signage and the use of that signage generally
         shall be governed by a Trademark Agreement (Jobber) (form 26-950-TA), a
         copy of which is attached to and incorporated in this Contract.

     (d) USE OF MARKS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SALE OF REPRESENTATIVE AMOUNTS OF
         CERTAIN PRODUCTS. At all times and at each retail site, including
         Jobber-Dealer sites, Jobber shall offer for sale, or cause to be
         offered for sale, representative amounts of each grade of Amoco-branded
         gasoline, currently offered to Jobber, necessary to satisfy public
         demand ("Representative Amounts"). If Jobber ceases to offer or make
         available one or more of these gasolines in the required Representative
         Amounts at a retail site supplied by Jobber, Jobber shall cease using
         or displaying, or cause its Jobber-Dealer to cease using or displaying,
         Amoco's Marks at that site.

     (e) USE OF MARKS IN CONJUNCTION WITH AMOCO'S IMAGE PROGRAMS AND STANDARDS.
         At each retail site, including Jobber-Dealer sites, Jobber shall comply
         with, and ensure that all of its Jobber-Dealers comply with, Amoco's
         image programs and standards, as amended from time to time. If a retail
         site fails to conform to Amoco's image standards, Amoco may revoke its
         approval to identify the retail site as provided in paragraph 6(b)
         below in which case Jobber shall cease using or displaying, or cause
         its Jobber-Dealer to cease using or displaying, Amoco's Marks at that
         site.

     (f) USE OF TORCH AND OVAL IN CONJUNCTION WITH JOBBER'S NAME. Jobber shall
         be permitted to display the Amoco (or, if applicable, Standard) torch
         and oval trademark ("T&O") in conjunction with Jobber's name on
         equipment and materials directly related to the advertising,
         distribution and/or resale of Products under this Contract. The words
         "Products Jobber" or "Products Distributor" must, however, appear
         adjacent to the T&O so as to read: [T&O] Products Jobber or [T&O]
         Products Distributor. Amoco shall have the right to approve such use of
         the T&O in advance or to revoke its approval at any time and for any
         reason.

     (g) MISUSE OF MARKS WITH JOBBER'S NAME. Jobber shall not use any of Amoco's
         Marks as part of Jobber's corporate name or as part of Jobber's own
         trademarks. If Jobber has incorporated using any of Amoco's Marks, it
         shall be required to amend its articles of incorporation so as to
         delete Amoco's Marks from its corporate name.

     (h) MISUSE OF MARKS IN CONNECTION WITH CERTAIN SALES. Jobber shall not use
         any of Amoco's Marks in connection with the advertising, distribution
         and/or resale of: (1) any dilution or adulteration of a Product
         authorized by, supplied by and/or purchased from Amoco; (2) any mixture
         or blend of Products authorized by, supplied by and/or purchased from
         Amoco, without Amoco's prior written consent (which consent may be
         revoked at any time and for any reason); (3) any Product authorized by,
         supplied by and/or purchased from Amoco but sold under an incorrect or
         inappropriate Amoco Mark or sold through unapproved or disapproved
         packages, containers or equipment; or (4) any product not authorized
         by, supplied by and/or purchased from Amoco.

     (i) AMOCO'S RIGHT TO AUDIT. As part of Amoco's compliance program(s),
         Jobber agrees and acknowledges that Amoco shall have the right, at all
         times, to audit records in the possession or control of Jobber or its
         Jobber-Dealers and the right, at all times, to inspect and sample all
         Products in the possession or control of Jobber and/or its
         Jobber-Dealers. Jobber shall cooperate fully and completely throughout
         the audit and inspection processes, and ensure that its Jobber-Dealers
         cooperate fully and completely also.

     (j) DISCONTINUED USE OF MARKS UPON EXPIRATION OR TERMINATION OF THIS
         CONTRACT. Upon the expiration or termination of this Contract, for any
         reason, Jobber shall immediately cease using or displaying, and cause
         its Jobber-Dealers to cease using or displaying, Amoco's Marks and
         shall dispose of all signage in accordance with the Trademark
         Agreement. All remaining evidence of Amoco's Marks shall be immediately
         obliterated by Jobber. If Jobber does not immediately cease using or
         displaying, and cause its Jobber-Dealers to cease using or displaying,
         Amoco's Marks, Amoco shall have the irrevocable right to use any means
         necessary to remove, cover or obliterate the Marks, including entering
         upon the relevant premises or filing a legal action, with Jobber's full
         and complete cooperation and at Jobber's expense.

6.  SITE APPROVAL.

     (a) USE OF AMOCO'S MARKS AT EACH RETAIL SITE. It is and shall be a
         condition of the right to use Amoco's Marks that Jobber must first
         obtain Amoco's prior written consent for each and every retail site
         which Jobber intends to identify, or causes to identify, with Amoco's
         Marks, including Jobber-Dealer sites. This approval shall be within
         Amoco's sole discretion and shall be based, among other things, upon
         the appearance, location and mode of operation of the site. Amoco also
         expressly reserves the right to determine the appropriate geographic
         density of all sites identified and/or to be identified with Amoco's
         Marks. Amoco's right of approval shall apply to all requests to
         identify regardless of the site's intended location within or outside
         Jobber's Schedule B area of primary marketing responsibility ("Schedule
         B area"). In order to obtain Amoco's approval to identify a retail site
         outside Jobber's Schedule B area, it shall be a further requirement
         that Jobber has used and/or is using its best efforts to develop
         Jobber's Schedule B area as provided in paragraph 8(a) below.

     (b) SITE APPROVAL REVOKED. Amoco shall have the right, in its sole
         discretion, to revoke its approval to identify any retail site if the
         site fails to conform to the terms or conditions of this Contract or
         Amoco's policies or to any relevant law or regulation. If Amoco revokes
         its approval, Jobber shall immediately cease using or displaying, or
         cause to cease using or displaying, Amoco's Marks at that location.

     (c) JOBBER'S RIGHT TO SUPPLY DISAPPROVED OR REVOKED SITES. Nothing in this
         Contract shall prevent Jobber from supplying a disapproved retail site
         or a retail site at which Amoco's approval has been revoked provided
         that Jobber does not permit Amoco's Marks to be displayed at that
         location.

     (d) AMOCO'S RIGHT TO HAVE SIGNAGE REMOVED. Amoco shall have the right to
         cause any and all signage bearing Amoco's Marks to be removed, or to
         cause Amoco's Marks on said signage to be removed, covered or
         obliterated, from any disapproved retail site or from any retail site
         at which Amoco's approval has been revoked. If Jobber does not
         immediately cease using or displaying, or cause its Jobber-Dealer to
         cease using or displaying, Amoco's Marks after Amoco's request to do
         so, Amoco shall have the irrevocable right to use any means necessary
         to remove, cover or obliterate the Marks, including entering upon the
         relevant premises or filing a legal action, with Jobber's complete
         cooperation and at Jobber's expense.

     (e) JOBBER TO PROVIDE LIST OF ALL APPROVED SITES. Jobber shall provide
         Amoco with a list, upon Amoco's request, which shall indicate all
         retail sites supplied by and/or operated by Jobber which are identified
         with Amoco's Marks.

7.  AMOCO'S DIRECTLY-SUPPLIED RESELLER/DEALER RETAIL SITES. Jobber shall not
sell Products covered by this Contract to any retail site which is directly-
supplied by Amoco or which is designated by Amoco as a directly-supplied site.

8.  AREA OF PRIMARY MARKETING RESPONSIBILITY (SCHEDULE B).

     (a) JOBBER TO USE BEST EFFORTS TO MARKET IN THE SCHEDULE B AREA. Jobber
         shall use its best efforts to market the Products covered by this
         Contract and develop its Schedule B area, as determined and designated
         by Amoco in its sole discretion and as more fully and specifically set
         forth in Schedule B, a copy of which is attached to and incorporated in
         this Contract.

     (b) SCHEDULE B AREA NOT EXCLUSIVE. Subject to Amoco's site approval and
         direct supply rights as provided above in paragraphs 6 and 7
         respectively, nothing shall prevent Jobber from selling or soliciting
         the sale of the Products covered by this Contract outside its Schedule
         B area or confer upon Jobber exclusive marketing and/or trademark
         rights within such area. Amoco shall, at all times and for any reason,
         maintain its sole and unlimited right to make other provisions for the
         marketing of its Products under any of its Marks within Jobber's
         Schedule B area including, but not limited to, establishing its own
         directly-operated retail sites, establishing its own directly-supplied
         reseller/dealer retail sites, and/or approving retail sites to be
         operated or supplied by other jobbers.

9.  ADDITIONAL JOBBER RESPONSIBILITIES.

     (a) BULK PLANTS. Jobber shall operate, where necessary, one or more bulk
         storage plants so as to efficiently perform its supply and distribution
         functions under this Contract.

     (b) TRANSPORT AND TANK TRUCKS. Jobber shall operate or cause to operate,
         where necessary, a sufficient number of transport and/or tank trucks so
         as to efficiently perform its delivery functions under this Contract.

     (c) DELIVERIES FOR AMOCO. From time to time, Amoco may request that Jobber
         make deliveries, from Jobber's inventories of Products purchased under
         this Contract, to other Amoco customers. If Jobber elects to make any
         such deliveries, Amoco shall pay Jobber a mutually agreed upon handling
         fee. Jobber shall invoice Amoco for the quantities of product
         delivered, at Amoco's price for the respective Product applicable to
         Jobber and in effect on the date Jobber makes delivery, plus the
         handling fee.

10. JOBBER AS INDEPENDENT BUSINESS/SALE OF COMPETITIVE PRODUCTS.

     (a) INDEPENDENT BUSINESS. Amoco and Jobber are and shall remain separate
         and independent businesses. None of the provisions of this Contract are
         intended to provide Amoco with any management direction or control over
         the Jobber's business or business operations. Likewise, Jobber shall
         not place or allow the placement of any signage upon or near any
         premises owned, operated or supplied by Jobber which might indicate
         that Amoco is the owner or operator of the business conducted by
         Jobber.

     (b) SALE OF COMPETITIVE PRODUCTS. Nothing in this Contract shall prevent
         Jobber from purchasing and reselling the Products of Amoco's
         competitors. In the event that Jobber does purchase and resell
         competitive-brand Products, it shall comply with the applicable terms
         and conditions of this Contract and all applicable guidelines,
         policies, procedures, requirements, specifications and standards issued
         by Amoco, as amended from time to time, including Amoco's Policy and
         Dealer and Jobber Guidelines for Proper Handling of Non-Amoco Motor
         Fuels.

11. JOBBER-DEALERS.

     (a) ACTS AND OMISSIONS OF JOBBER-DEALERS IMPUTED TO JOBBER. Jobber shall
         inform those Jobber-Dealers permitted to use Amoco's Marks of the
         specific terms and conditions of this Contract and all related
         contracts, including all schedules, appendices and amendments attached
         to and incorporated in those agreements which pertain to the use of
         Amoco's Marks and related matters. In addition, Jobber shall inform
         those Jobber-Dealers of the specific guidelines, policies, procedures,
         requirements, specifications and standards periodically issued by
         Amoco, as amended from time to time, which pertain to the use of
         Amoco's Marks and related matters. Notwithstanding the Jobber's best
         efforts to ensure its Jobber-Dealers' compliance, and regardless of any
         contractual relationship between Jobber and its Jobber-Dealer, any act
         or omission by a Jobber-Dealer that, if committed or omitted by Jobber
         would place Jobber in violation of this Contract or related contracts,
         shall be imputed to Jobber and may cause Amoco, at its sole discretion,
         to take appropriate action against Jobber up to and including the
         termination of this Contract.

     (b) ACTIONS AGAINST JOBBER-DEALERS. Nothing in this Contract shall prevent
         or preclude Amoco from exercising any legal or equitable rights against
         a Jobber-Dealer directly, separate and apart from any actions taken
         against Jobber.

12.  RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AND RIGHT TO PURCHASE JOBBER'S AMOCO-BRANDED ASSETS.

     (a) AMOCO'S RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Jobber shall not sell, lease or
         otherwise transfer the assets in its possession or control, or portions
         thereof, which are related to this Contract and which, at any time
         during the franchise relationship, have been identified with or by
         Amoco's Marks including but not limited to Jobber-owned retail sites;
         bulk plant and terminal facilities; transport and tank trucks; and all
         related real and personal property, contract rights, or good will
         ("Jobber's Amoco-Branded Assets") without first giving Amoco a right to
         purchase or otherwise acquire the assets for consideration consisting
         solely of cash, or cash and notes, upon the same terms and conditions
         as set forth in a bona fide, arms' length agreement executed by and
         between Jobber and a third-party purchaser ("Right of First Refusal").

     (b)  AMOCO'S RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL/INFORMATION JOBBER MUST PROVIDE.
          Pursuant to paragraph 12(a) above, Jobber agrees to promptly submit to
          Amoco complete and fully executed copies of all contract documents
          which comprise the proposed agreement and any additional information,
          facts and data required by Amoco: (1) to evaluate the bona fide nature
          of the agreement and, (2) should the proposed agreement include
          Jobber's request to assign the Contract, to evaluate the third-party
          purchaser's qualifications to be an Amoco jobber. Amoco shall
          thereafter have sixty (60) days within which to exercise its Right of
          First Refusal, by written notice to Jobber. Closing shall be held at a
          time and place agreeable to Amoco and Jobber, but no later than
          sixty (60) days after Amoco elects to exercise its Right of First
          Refusal. Jobber shall convey all real property with good and
          marketable title and all other property in contractual form(s)
          acceptable to Amoco, subject only to such liens and encumbrances which
          were acceptable to the third-party purchaser.

     (c) EXCEPTION TO AMOCO'S RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Notwithstanding paragraph
         12(a) above, Jobber shall be permitted to sell, lease or otherwise
         transfer Jobber's Amoco-Branded Assets to: (1) a spouse, child,
         stepchild, parent, brother or sister ("Immediate Family Member"), if
         Jobber is a sole proprietorship; (2) an Immediate Family Member of a
         partner's immediate family, if Jobber is a partnership; or (3) an
         Immediate Family Member of a stockholder's immediate family, if Jobber
         is a corporation, without providing Amoco with a Right of First
         Refusal; provided, however, that each Immediate Family Member who
         receives assets hereunder, is at least twenty-one (21) years of age
         with at least one (1) year of active management experience in Jobber's
         business and, provided further, that no agreement executed in
         accordance with this paragraph 12(c) shall operate as a mere means or
         device to transfer control or ownership of the assets to a
         non-Immediate Family Member without providing Amoco with its Right of
         First Refusal.

     (d) AMOCO'S RIGHT TO PURCHASE IF JOBBER IS A CORPORATION OR PARTNERSHIP. If
         Jobber is a corporation, any sale, conveyance, alienation, transfer or
         other change of legal or beneficial interest in, or legal or beneficial
         title to, more than fifty percent (50%) of its voting stock, or, if
         Jobber is a partnership, any sale, conveyance, transfer or other change
         of partnership interest resulting in a change in control of the
         partnership, at any time during the franchise relationship, either
         voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law, by merger or by or
         through any other type of proceedings: (1) shall trigger Amoco's right
         to purchase the entirety of Jobbers Amoco-Branded Assets for a cash
         price equal to the fair market value of those assets ("Right to
         Purchase"), as determined by the average of three independent
         appraisals made pursuant to paragraph 12(e) below, and (2) shall be
         considered a request to assign the Contract.

     (e) AMOCO'S RIGHT TO PURCHASE/AMOCO'S ELECTION TO APPRAISE/INFORMATION
         CORPORATION OR PARTNERSHIP MUST PROVIDE. Pursuant to paragraph 12 (d)
         above, Jobber shall promptly provide Amoco with written notice of a
         change in stock ownership or partnership control, whichever the case
         may be. Amoco shall thereafter have sixty (60) days within which to
         exercise its Right to Purchase, by written notice to Jobber. Upon
         Amoco's written request, made no later than ten (10) days after the
         commencement of this sixty (60) day exercise period, three independent
         Appraisal Institute MAI - designated ("MAI") appraisers (one chosen by
         Amoco within ten (10) days of the commencement of the exercise period,
         one chosen by Jobber within twenty (20) days of said commencement and
         one chosen by the other two MAI appraisers within thirty (30) days of
         said commencement) shall appraise the entirety of Jobber's
         Amoco-Branded Assets. Each appraiser shall provide Amoco with a
         written appraisal within ten (10) days of being chosen and the average
         of these appraisals shall be the price Amoco shall pay, should Amoco
         elect to purchase. Jobber shall cooperate fully and completely with
         Amoco and provide any information, facts and data required by Amoco
         and/or the appraisers to evaluate and appraise Jobber's Amoco-Branded
         Assets. Amoco and Jobber shall each pay for their own appraiser and
         shall each pay one-half (1/2) of the third appraiser's fee. Closing
         shall be in accordance with paragraph 12(b) above.

     (f) EXCEPTION TO AMOCO'S RIGHT TO PURCHASE. Notwithstanding paragraph 12(d)
         above, Jobber shall be permitted to: (1) effect a sale, conveyance,
         alienation, transfer or other change of legal or beneficial interest
         in, or legal or beneficial title to, more than fifty percent (50%) of
         its voting stock to an Immediate Family Member of a stockholder's
         immediate family, if Jobber is a corporation, or (2) effect a sale,
         conveyance, transfer or other change of partnership interest resulting
         in a change in control of the partnership to an Immediate Family Member
         of a partner's immediate family, if Jobber is a partnership, without
         triggering Amoco's Right to Purchase; provided, however, that each
         Immediate Family Member who receives stock or a partnership interest,
         whichever the case may be, is at least twenty-one (21) years of age
         with at least one (1) year of active management experience in Jobber's
         business and, provided further, that no transaction executed in
         accordance with this paragraph 12(f) shall operate as a mere means or
         device to transfer control or ownership of the assets to a
         non-Immediate Family Member without providing Amoco with its Right to
         Purchase.

     (g) AMOCO'S RIGHT TO VERIFY JOBBER'S CORPORATE OR PARTNERSHIP INTEREST.
         From time to time, Amoco may request and Jobber shall provide a
         confirmation of all shareholder interest (legal and beneficial) or
         partnership interest, whichever the case may be, on a form acceptable
         to and/or provided by Amoco. Such confirmation shall include the names
         of all shareholders or partners, whichever the case may be.

     (h) STATUS OF CONTRACT AFTER SALE OF JOBBER'S AMOCO-BRANDED ASSETS. In the
         event of any sale of Jobber's Amoco-Branded Assets, this Contract shall
         continue in full force and effect unless terminated by Amoco, upon
         written notice, or unless assigned by Jobber, upon Amoco's written
         consent. Amoco's decision not to exercise its Right of First Refusal or
         its Right to Purchase in accordance with this paragraph 12 shall not
         prevent Amoco from withholding its consent to assign this Contract to
         any third-party purchase. Likewise, any sale of Jobber's Amoco-Branded
         Assets to an Immediate Family Member in accordance with paragraph 12(c)
         above shall not prevent Amoco from withholding its consent to assign
         this Contract to said Immediate Family Member.

     (i) AMOCO MAY ASSIGN ITS RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AND/OR ITS RIGHT TO
         PURCHASE. Amoco shall have the right to assign its Right of First
         Refusal and/or its Right to Purchase to a third-party purchaser of its
         choosing.

13. ASSIGNMENT.

     (a) JOBBER'S PRIOR WRITTEN REQUEST AND AMOCO'S WRITTEN CONSENT REQUIRED.
         Jobber acknowledges and understands that the current ownership and
         control of Jobber is a material element in Amoco's willingness to enter
         into this Contract. Jobber, therefore, agrees that it shall not assign
         or transfer its interest in this Contract, or any franchise
         relationship attendant thereto, without a prior written request and
         without Amoco's corresponding written consent; provided, however, that
         Amoco shall not unreasonably withhold its consent, and further
         provided, that in giving its consent to any assignment, whether
         voluntarily or by operation of law, Amoco may, at its election,
         condition the consent upon: (1) the agreement of the proposed assignee
         or transferee to enter into a trial franchise;(2) the agreement of the
         Jobber to simultaneously enter into a mutual cancellation of this
         Contract and related contracts; and (3) the satisfaction of all
         indebtedness owed by Jobber to Amoco.

     (b) AMOCO MAY WITHHOLD CONSENT. Refusal of the proposed assignee or
         transferee to enter into a trial franchise and/or the Jobber to enter
         into a mutual cancellation shall be adequate reason for Amoco to
         withhold its consent to the assignment. In addition, nothing stated in
         this paragraph 13 shall limit Amoco's right to withhold its consent to
         any assignment proposed by Jobber or limit Amoco's right to impose
         other or additional conditions on its consent.

     (c) EFFECT OF ASSIGNMENT WITHOUT AMOCO'S CONSENT. Jobber agrees and
         acknowledges that any attempted or purported assignment or transfer of
         this Contract without Amoco's knowledge and/or Amoco's prior written
         consent may result in the termination of this Contract and the
         non-renewal of any franchise relationship.

14. INDEMNITY. Jobber shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify,
defend and hold Amoco, including but not limited to Amoco's parent, affiliates
and all officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents of Amoco, its
parent and affiliates, harmless from and against any and all losses, suits,
claims, demands, causes of action, liabilities, fines, penalties, costs or
expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and all other costs of defense)
of whatever kind or nature, directly or indirectly arising in whole or in part
out of; (a) any default or breach by Jobber of any obligation contained in this
Contract or any other agreement with Amoco; (b) the receipt, shipment, delivery,
storage, handling, use, sale, dispensing, labeling, invoicing, advertising or
promoting of the Products by Jobber; (c) the use of any Amoco property (real or
personal) by Jobber or its Jobber-Dealers; (d) any allegation of agency or other
alleged legal relationship by which Amoco is being held or might be held
responsible for the acts or omissions of Jobber or its Jobber-Dealers; (e) the
use of Amoco's Marks by Jobber or its Jobber-Dealers, including the use of said
Marks on signage and in the advertising or promoting of Products sold or
services rendered by Jobber or its Jobber-Dealers; (f) the violation of any
federal, state or local law, rule, regulation, court order or government
directive by Jobber, its Jobber-Dealers or its other customers; (g) all taxes
incurred and owed by Jobber or its Jobber-Dealers of whatever kind and nature;
(h) or any other act or omission of Jobber, its Jobber-Dealers, or its other
customers, or their agents, employees, contractors, invitees, licensees,
customers or business associates, regardless if caused by the joint, concurrent,
or contributory fault or negligence of Amoco, except that Jobber shall assume no
liability for the sole acts, omissions, negligence or fault of Amoco.

15. INSURANCE.

     (a) TYPES OF COVERAGE REQUIRED. Jobber shall obtain and maintain, at its
         sole cost and expense, primary insurance coverage through an insurer
         and in a form acceptable to Amoco as follows: (1)
         Comprehensive/commercial general liability insurance of not less than
         One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit, including
         coverage for contractual liability, bodily injury, property damage,
         fire liability, premises and operations liability, products completed
         operations hazard liability, independent contractor's liability, garage
         keeper's liability, medical expense liability, liquor liability and
         personal and advertising injury; (2) Worker's compensation and
         employer's liability insurance, as required by law, but in no event
         less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit; (3)
         Business automobile liability insurance, including coverage on all
         vehicles owned, hired or used in the performance of this Contract, of
         not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit.

     (b) REQUIREMENTS FOR EACH TYPE OF COVERAGE. All insurance policies required
         under this Contract shall: (1) name Amoco as an additional insured; (2)
         include an endorsement containing an express waiver of any right of
         subrogation or other recovery, by Jobber or any insurance company,
         against Amoco; (3) include an endorsement stipulating that Jobber's
         insurance policies are primary to, not contributory with and not excess
         to any other policies or self-insurance; (4) provide that no policy
         shall be materially changed, amended or cancelled except after thirty
         (30) days' written notice to Amoco; and (5) provide that Jobber shall
         be solely responsible for the payment of any premium or assessment,
         with no recourse against Amoco.

     (c) PROOF OF COVERAGE REQUIRED. Each time Jobber renews the insurance
         coverage required under this Contract, but no less than annually, and
         at any time requested by Amoco, Jobber shall provide such proof of
         coverage as Amoco, in its sole discretion, determines is necessary for
         verification purposes including, but not limited to certificates of
         insurance or copies of the polices themselves. If Jobber fails to
         provide acceptable proof of insurance, as determined by Amoco, then
         Amoco may, at its option and in addition to all other remedies
         available to it under this Contract or at law, after ten (10) days
         notice to Jobber, obtain coverage to protect Amoco's interests only and
         charge the cost of such coverage to Jobber.

     (d) ENVIRONMENTAL COVERAGE. If required by any applicable law, Jobber must
         obtain environmental impairment coverage in the amount and of the type
         required by such law.

     (e) INDEMNITY NOT LIMITED BY INSURANCE. The existence or non-existence of
         any insurance as required by this Contract shall not limit the Jobber's
         indemnity or other obligations under this Contract.

16.  TERMINATION AND NON-RENEWAL.

     (a) AMOCO'S BREACH. Jobber may terminate this Contract if Amoco fails to
         comply with any material provision of this Contract, upon ninety (90)
         days prior written notice; provided, however, that Jobber shall provide
         Amoco with a reasonable opportunity to exert good faith efforts to
         carry out such provision.

     (b) JOBBER'S BREACH/PMPA. Amoco may terminate this Contract and non-renew
         any franchise relationship in accordance with Title I of the Petroleum
         Marketing Practices Act ("PMPA"), 15 US.C. 2801 et seq., as amended,
         and/or other applicable federal, state and/or local laws of the same
         nature and effect. Amoco expressly reserves all of its respective
         rights under the PMPA and Jobber acknowledges and agrees that no
         omission by Amoco of any specific reference to any specific PMPA right
         shall constitute a waiver of that right. In addition, Jobber agrees and
         acknowledges that Amoco's rights and remedies under the PMPA shall be
         without prejudice to all other rights and remedies available to Amoco
         at law or in equity.

Farstad Oil Co  Inc

<Page>

     (c) PROCEDURES FOR TERMINATION AND NON-RENEWAL BY AMOCO. If Jobber fails to
         comply with any of the terms and conditions of this Contract and/or
         related contracts, including all schedules, appendices, and amendments
         attached to and incorporated in those agreements, or if any other
         ground for termination and/or non-renewal shall present itself, Amoco
         shall, at its election, terminate this Contract and/or non-renew any
         franchise relationship upon ninety (90) days written notice (or upon
         less than ninety (90) days notice as may be reasonable under a
         particular circumstance). In the case of a market withdrawal, as
         defined in the PMPA, Amoco shall terminate this Contract and/or
         non-renew any franchise relationship upon 180 days written notice.

     (d) PHYSICAL OR MENTAL INCAPACITY AND DEATH. For purposes of emphasis and
         elaboration, but without limitation, it is acknowledged and agreed by
         and between Amoco and Jobber that the following shall constitute
         grounds for termination of this Contract and non-renewal of any
         franchise relationship, subject to the applicable provisions of any
         relevant state law: death or continuous, severe physical or mental
         disability (of at least three months duration) (1) of the owner of the
         business, if Jobber is a sole proprietorship; or (2) of one of the
         partners, if Jobber is a partnership; or (3) of the beneficial
         owner(s) of more than fifty percent (50%) of Jobber's voting stock if
         Jobber is a corporation unless the death or other incapacity of said
         beneficial owner(s) results in the contemporaneous transfer of more
         than fifty percent (50%) of said voting stock to an Immediate Family
         Member at least twenty-one (21) years of age with at least one (1) year
         of active management experience in the Jobber's business.

     (e) FAILURE TO PURCHASE PRODUCT QUANTITIES. For purposes of emphasis and
         elaboration but without limitation, it is acknowledged and agreed by
         and between Amoco and Jobber that the following shall constitute
         grounds for termination of this Contract and non-renewal of any
         franchise relationship: failure of Jobber to purchase the applicable
         stated quantity of any Product during any 12-month period, or portion
         thereof, as set forth in Schedule A.

     (f) AMOCO'S EQUITABLE REMEDIES. Jobber agrees that money damages may not be
         a sufficient remedy for its breach of this Contract and that,
         therefore, in addition to all remedies available at law, Amoco shall be
         entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, declaratory
         judgment and/or other equitable remedies, as appropriate. Jobber agrees
         to waive any requirement for the posting of any bond in connection with
         Amoco's effort to seek an equitable remedy.

17.  DELIVERIES.

     (a) AMOCO'S RIGHT TO LIMIT MONTHLY DELIVERY QUANTITIES. Unless otherwise
         specified in the schedules, appendices or amendments to this Contract,
         deliveries of each Product hereunder shall be in relatively equal
         monthly quantities, subject to weekly or daily prorating. Amoco shall
         not be obligated to deliver to Jobber in any given month more than an
         amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the respective 12-month quantity
         for each such Product as set forth on Schedule A. Should Jobber at any
         time or for any month order in quantities less than such prorated
         amount, Amoco shall not be obligated to deliver the deficiency at any
         time Should Jobber at any time or for any month require more than said
         prorated amount, Amoco shall have the right, at its option, to supply
         such excess requirement, but if Amoco supplies same it shall not be
         obligated to do so again in the future.

     (b) AMOCO'S RIGHT TO SPECIFY MINIMUM DELIVERY QUANTITIES. Amoco shall have
         the right to specify minimum delivery quantities and either refuse to
         make deliveries in quantities less than such minimums or, at Amoco's
         option, charge extra for making such deliveries.

     (c) CHANGES IN AND AT JOBBER'S ASSIGNED TERMINAL(S). Amoco shall have the
         right at any time to change Jobber's Assigned Terminal(s) and/or to
         limit the quantity of Product that Amoco shall make available to Jobber
         at any of said terminals. Amoco shall have the right to determine and
         designate the percentage of Jobber,s Schedule A quantities that Amoco
         will make available to Jobber at Jobber's Assigned Terminal(s).

18. DETERMINATION OF QUANTITIES. The quantities of Products sold hereunder
shall be determined on the basis of the temperature thereof at 60(degree)F in
accordance with "Table No. 6B of API Standard 2540, Manual of Petroleum
Measurement Standards, Chapter 11.1--Volume Correction Factors--Volume II" (or
any API/ASTM reissue or replacement thereof in effect at the time of
measurement), or at Amoco's option, on the basis of gross volume, as established
by Amoco for Jobber's class of trade in the applicable geographic area, or as
otherwise required by law.

19. DEMURRAGE. Jobber shall pay any and all demurrage accruing on any barges,
tank cars, transport and/or tank trucks or other means of transportation at the
prevailing rates therefor, at the time of the particular delay. Jobber shall
also pay to Amoco a tank car and/or truck transport rental at Amoco's then
prevailing rates for each chargeable demurrage day.

20. REJECTION OF PRODUCTS AND NOTICE OF BREACH.

     (a) REJECTION MUST OCCUR WITHIN 48 HOURS OF RECEIPT. Jobber shall have 48
         hours after receipt of the Products sold under the Contract to inspect
         and either accept or reject said Products. If Jobber retains the
         Products in its possession for a period in excess of 48 hours after
         receipt without rejecting said Products, this shall be regarded as an
         irrevocable acceptance by Jobber.

Page 7 - ELECTRONIC BRANDED JOBBER CONTRACT (26-930-GD)
For
Farstad Oil Co. Inc.

<Page>

     (b) REQUIRED PROCEDURES IF PRODUCTS REJECTED. If Products are rejected,
         notice must be given to Amoco so that it is received no later than five
         (5) business days after delivery of the Products to Jobber, fully
         specifying all claimed shortages, defects and/or nonconformities. The
         failure to specify any shortage, defect and/or nonconformity shall
         constitute a waiver of that shortage, defect or nonconformity.

     (c) REQUIRED PROCEDURES IF BREACH DISCOVERED AFTER ACCEPTANCE. In the event
         that the Products are accepted pursuant to the terms of this paragraph
         20, Jobber agrees to notify Amoco in writing of any subsequently
         discovered breach of warranty which could not have reasonably been
         discovered by careful inspection at the time of delivery. Such notice
         shall be given within seven (7) days after discovery of the breach and
         must specify the facts constituting the alleged breach. Failure to give
         such notice shall be deemed conclusive evidence that Jobber has no
         valid claim for breach of warranty.

21. EXPRESS WARRANTIES, DISCLAIMERS AND DAMAGE LIMITS.

     (a) AMOCO WARRANTIES. Amoco warrants that the Products sold to Jobber under
         this Contract shall meet Amoco's then current specifications for the
         respective Product and that said Product shall be in merchantable
         condition.

     (b) NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF
         FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE MADE.

     (c) RIGHT TO DAMAGES LIMITED. Under no circumstances shall Amoco be liable
         for incidental, special, punitive or consequential damages whether
         under warranty, tort, contract, strict liability or otherwise.

22. FORCE MAJEURE AND ALLOCATION.

     (a) FORCE MAJEURE. Amoco shall be excused from delay or nonperformance in
         the event of a refinery turnaround, whether partial or complete, or if
         it is otherwise unable to meet the demand for its Products at Amoco's
         normal and usual distribution points for supplying Jobber (regardless
         of whether or not Amoco may have diverted certain supplies from such
         distribution points in order to alleviate shortages at other
         distribution points), or in the event of failure or delay in delivery
         due to exhaustion, reduction or unavailability of Product, or stock or
         component necessary in the manufacture or production of such Product.
         Either party shall be excused from delay or nonperformance in the event
         of any condition whatsoever beyond said party's reasonable control,
         including without limitation: unavailability, failure, or delay of
         transportation; Acts of God, labor difficulties; explosions; storms;
         breakdown of machinery or equipment; fire; riots; war conditions in
         this or any other country; and compliance with any law or governmental
         order, regulation, recommendation, request or allocation program
         (whether voluntary or involuntary) affecting directly or indirectly
         said party's ability to perform hereunder.

     (b) ALLOCATION. In the event of any of the contingencies or conditions
         referred to in paragraph 22(a) above, Amoco shall have the right to
         curtail deliveries or allocate its supply of Product for sale among its
         customers in any manner which in its sole discretion is fair and
         reasonable in the circumstances, and shall not be obligated to obtain
         or purchase other supplies of Product or to in any way make up any
         Product not delivered. Jobber shall not hold Amoco responsible in any
