4.2 Purchase Shortfall. If Purchaser fails to purchase and take delivery of any quantities of Biodiesel specified in Confirmed Orders, and Seller, using commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any damage, has produced and must sell such Biodiesel to a substitute purchaser at a price lower than the applicable Price, Purchaser shall pay Seller the amount by which the Price exceeds the actual sales price per gallon, multiplied by the number of gallons sold to the substitute purchaser. If Seller exercises commercially reasonable efforts and is still unable to sell any such Biodiesel to a substitute purchaser, then Purchaser shall pay Seller an amount equal to the Price multiplied by the entire unsold portion. Purchaser shall remit payment pursuant to the Master Agreement. In either case, Purchaser shall also pay any additional costs solely and directly incurred by Seller to identify a substitute purchaser.

4.3 Seller Delivery Shortfall. If Seller fails to make available for purchase the quantity of Biodiesel specified in Confirmed Orders under the Delivery Schedule, and Purchaser, using commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the damage, is unable to obtain a substitute supply of Biodiesel at a price equal to or less than the Price, Seller shall pay Purchaser the amount by which the Price is less than the price paid by Purchaser for substitute supply, multiplied by the delivery shortfall (Confirmed Order quantity less the amount actually delivered by Seller); plus any additional costs solely and directly incurred by Purchaser to identify a substitute purchaser. The remedy specified in this Section 4.3 shall be Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event that Seller fails to make available for purchase the quantity of Biodiesel specified in the Confirmed Order.

4.4 Seller’s Non-Delivery. If, in any quarter within any Contract Year following the Start-up Period, Seller fails to make available for purchase one-fourth (1/4) of the Supplier Annual Minimum Delivery, and if the Supplier Annual Minimum Delivery for such Contract Year has not been exceeded, Seller shall be obligated to pay Fees on such shortfall to Purchaser calculated on the average Net Price for the preceding three (3) months. Following the Start-Up Period, unless this Agreement is terminated by Seller pursuant to Sections 12.2 or 12.3, Seller shall in all other termination events pay the Fees that, based on the Supplier Annual Minimum Delivery and such average Net Price, Purchaser would have otherwise received had the Agreement continued for the lesser of (x) one (1) year or (y) the balance of the Initial Term.

The Party claiming indemnification shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnitor of any matter for which the Indemnitor may become liable under this provision. Said notice shall contain full details of the matter in order to provide the Indemnitor with sufficient information to assess its potential liability and to undertake defense of the Claim. The indemnified Party shall have the right at all times to participate in the preparation for and conducting of any hearing, trial or other proceeding related to the provisions of this Article, as well as the right to appear on its own behalf at any such hearing, trial or other proceeding. Any such participation or appearance by the indemnified Party shall be at its sole cost and expense. The indemnified Party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Indemnitor and its counsel in defending any Claims and shall not take any action that is reasonably likely to be detrimental to such defense. The Indemnitor shall obtain written approval from the indemnified Party prior to any settlement that might impose obligations or restrictions on the indemnified Party.

17.3 Dispute Resolution. Except where a different dispute resolution mechanism is specified herein, in the event a dispute arises in connection with the performance or non-performance of this Agreement, either Party has the right to notify the other Party in writing of the substance of such dispute. The Party receiving such notice must respond in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice and either (a) provide evidence that the matter has been resolved, or (b) provide an explanation of why it believes that its performance is in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and specify three (3) dates, all of which must be within thirty (30) days from the date of its response, for a meeting to resolve the dispute.

All aspects of the arbitration shall be treated as confidential and judgment on the arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The expenses of the arbitrator(s) shall be shared equally by the Parties, and each Party shall bear its own legal costs, unless the arbitrators determine that legal costs shall be otherwise assessed. Nothing contained in any indemnification provision hereunder shall be construed as having any bearing on the award of attorney’s fees under this Section.

ARTICLE XIX

CONFIDENTIALITY

19.1 Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean the pricing terms of this Agreement and any information which is not in the public domain and is disclosed by one Party to the other pursuant to this Agreement and which is in written, graphic, machine readable or other tangible form. Confidential Information may also include oral information disclosed by one Party to the other pursuant to this Agreement, provided that such information is designated as Confidential Information at the time of disclosure and is reduced to writing by the disclosing Party within a reasonable time (not to exceed ten (10) days) after its oral disclosure, and the writing is marked in a manner to indicate its confidential nature and delivered to the receiving Party. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit

or limit a receiving Party from disclosing information, (including ideas, concepts, know-how, techniques, and methodologies) (a) previously known to it, (b) independently developed by it without use of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information by those employees or representatives of the disclosing Party that have not had access to such Confidential Information, as can be substantiated by reasonable evidence, (c) acquired by it from a third party which was not, to the receiving Party’s knowledge, under an obligation to the disclosing Party or any third party not to disclose such information, (d) that is or becomes publicly available through no breach by the receiving Party of this Agreement , or (e) to the extent disclosure of such information is required by law or by the rules, regulations or practices of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any exchange or automated quotation system upon which shares of such Party may be listed, quoted or traded. If a receiving Party receives a subpoena or other validly issued administrative or judicial process demanding Confidential Information of a disclosing Party, the receiving Party must promptly notify the disclosing Party and tender to it the defense of such demand. Unless the demand has been timely limited, quashed or extended, the receiving Party will thereafter be entitled to comply with that demand to the extent required by law but shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information. If requested by the disclosing Party, the receiving Party shall cooperate (at the expense of the disclosing Party) in the defense of such a demand.

19.2 Seller Nondisclosure. Seller acknowledges that, by reason of this Agreement, it and the principals (members, managers, officers, and the like), employees, agents, advisors, lenders, other financing sources, representatives and affiliates (collectively, “Representatives”) of Seller may become privy to Confidential Information belonging to Purchaser. Seller agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, disclose to any third parties or use for its own benefit any such Confidential Information except in the carrying out of its obligations under this Agreement. Seller shall inform any of its Representatives to whom Seller intends to disclose Confidential Information of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and shall require such persons to be bound by the provisions of this Article XIX of this Agreement. The confidentiality obligations hereunder shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement.

19.3 Purchaser Nondisclosure. Purchaser acknowledges that, by reason of this Agreement, it and its Representatives may become privy to Confidential Information belonging to Seller. Purchaser agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Seller, disclose to any third parties or use for its own benefit any such Confidential Information except in the carrying out of its obligations under this Agreement. Purchaser shall inform any of its Representatives to whom they intend to disclose Confidential Information of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and shall require such persons to be bound by the provisions of the Article XIX of this Agreement. The confidentiality obligations hereunder shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement.

19.4 Injunction. Each Party hereto acknowledges that a violation or attempted breach of any of its covenants and agreements in this Article XIX will cause such damage as will be irreparable, the exact amount of which would be difficult to ascertain and for which there will be no adequate remedy at law, and accordingly, each of the Parties hereto agrees that in the event of a breach of this Article XIX the non-breaching Party shall be entitled as a matter of right to an injunction issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, restraining breaching Party or the affiliates, principals, employees, agents or representatives of the breaching Party from such breach or attempted violation of such covenants and agreements. The Parties hereto agree that no bond or other security

shall be required in connection with such injunction. Any exercise by a Party hereto of such Party’s rights pursuant to this Article XIX shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedies to which such Party may be entitled.

19.5 Announcements. Any public statements, press releases, and similar announcements concerning the negotiation or consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including such statements made by Representatives of the Parties, shall be jointly planned and coordinated by the Parties. Neither Party shall issue any such statement absent the consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

EXHIBIT 2.1

PLANNING, ORDERING, DELIVERY, AND INVENTORY MANAGEMENT OF BIODIESEL PROCEDURES

The following procedures are set forth to clarify the planning, ordering and delivery of Biodiesel from the Plant.

1. Delivery Schedule. The parties shall jointly develop a delivery schedule (the “Delivery Schedule”) which will serve as the formal planning tool for Biodiesel requirements for each quarter and each month of the quarter. The initial draft of each Delivery Schedule shall be submitted by Seller to Purchaser no later than ten (10) business days prior to the end of each calendar quarter. The Delivery Schedule shall pertain to the second subsequent quarter of Biodiesel delivery requirements (e.g., the Delivery Schedule submitted prior to the end of the quarter ending December 31 will cover the quarter beginning April 1 and ending June 30). The use of the Delivery Schedules shall commence for the first calendar quarter in which the start-up of the Plant and/or the first shipments of Biodiesel are forecasted. The initial draft of the Delivery Schedule shall be a three (3) month daily forecast and shall include:

· Submission Date.

· Production plan with estimated production of Biodiesel.

· Estimated start-of-quarter inventory of Biodiesel in gallons.

· Comments regarding operations, scheduled shutdowns, and other comments relating to market, logistics, and inventory management.

· Should any changes from the Delivery Schedule be anticipated for the subsequent three (3) quarters, Seller shall communicate this in writing together with the above information. Such changes could include: production rates per month, quantities of Biodiesel to be produced and a list of special operational and delivery considerations.

The specific format of the Delivery Schedule will be created with mutual consent of both Parties to accommodate the required information outlined above.

Purchaser shall review the initial draft of the Delivery Schedule and advise Seller of market conditions, inventory management, and transportation and logistics issues relating to the Delivery Schedule within ten (10) business days after receipt. Purchaser shall amend the Delivery Schedule to include planned shipments of Biodiesel (in gallons) purchased hereunder and the expected mode of transport for these shipments.

2. Confirmed Orders. It is understood that, in all events, pricing of Biodiesel shall be bid by Purchaser and either accepted or rejected by Seller. Price bids for Biodiesel shipments shall be submitted to Seller by Purchaser, and Seller shall reject or accept the price bid by the close of that same business day or earlier if notified by Purchaser of price changes due to specific market conditions. Price bids that are not expressly rejected by Seller at least fifteen (15) days prior to the first day of the month in which the applicable Biodiesel shipment is to be made shall be deemed accepted by Purchaser. Such acceptances shall constitute “Confirmed Orders” and the price in $/gallon thereunder shall be the Price for the applicable Biodiesel. The

monthly schedules of the Delivery Schedule shall reflect and be further governed by such Confirmed Orders of Biodiesel. The Parties understand and agree that telephone conversations are recorded by Purchaser and may be recorded by Seller in the ordinary course of their respective businesses for purposes of, among other things, further documenting the quotation and acceptance of Biodiesel prices in order to establish and verify Confirmed Orders. Purchaser shall be responsible for marketing, selling, and shipment of Biodiesel per the Confirmed Orders.

3. Delivery Schedule Deviations. The Parties recognize the need to maintain a degree of flexibility to accommodate the Start-up Period of the Plant, unexpected changes in the Plant operating capacity, and changing Biodiesel market conditions. Upon notification by either Party of any substantial deviations to the Delivery Schedule, the Parties agree to work in good faith to jointly resolve any such discovered deviations and correct such deviations within fifteen (15) days following first notification.

4. Liability Disclaimer. Each of the Parties understands and agrees that except for quantity, grade, and price quotations confirmed by the Parties in Confirmed Orders pursuant to this Exhibit 2.1, the planned production rates, estimated costs, pricing and market information, and all other information furnished by the Parties in the preparation of the Delivery Schedules is for planning and informational purposes only. Neither Party shall be responsible to the other for any actions taken in reliance on such estimates, plans and other information.

EXHIBIT 6.1

Seller shall make available product samples to Purchaser at the Plant.

5. Quality Control Procedures. Upon Seller’s receipt of Transport Vessels and prior to product loading, each Transport Vessel will be visually inspected for equipment integrity, safety, and potential contamination. Seller has the right to reject any Transport Vessel for loading, which does not materially comply with minimum safety standards and/or is contaminated with products or materials. Seller shall notify Purchaser immediately in the event any Transport Vessel does not meet the minimum requirements. Seller shall invoice Purchaser for all handling costs for any rejected Transport Vessel, including all costs incurred by Seller for placement, set-up and return of vehicle to Purchaser. If Purchaser requests Transport Vessel cleaning at the Plant, Purchaser shall be responsible for all associated cleaning costs. Seller shall provide certified tare weights with each transportation device. Seller shall provide certified weights for each shipment and the certificate of analysis for each shipment along with the invoice to Purchaser.
