The Initial Term, together with the First Renewal Term, the Second Renewal Term, and all Successive Renewal Terms, are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Term”.

PURCHASE AND SALE OF FEEDSTOCKS

3.1

Sale of Feedstocks. From and after the Commencement Date, Ryze shall purchase from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall sell to Ryze, one hundred percent (100%) of the Feedstocks required for the production of Renewable Diesel at the Facility, which the Parties anticipate shall be approximately three thousand (3,000) Barrels per day.

3.2

Price. For Feedstock delivered by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 to the Facility, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall charge Ryze, and Ryze shall pay, the actual cost incurred by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 to purchase such Feedstock plus all actual transportation (including demurrage), terminaling and other logistics costs incurred by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 to deliver such Feedstock to the Facility, plus [***] per Gallon. For the purpose of calculating gallons of feedstock to determine the price, the feedstock will be converted from pounds to gallons using a mutually agreed independent feedstock density to volume conversion methodology.

3.3

Specifications. Ryze shall provide to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 industry standard specifications for the required Feedstocks.

3.4

Forecasts and Nominations. No later than [***] prior to the Commencement Date, Ryze will provide a forecast of the volumes of Feedstock that it desires for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 to deliver [***] following the Commencement Date. Thereafter, Ryze will continue to forecast [***] nomination requirements for [***] during the Term at least [***] in advance of such month, and shall finalize all such nominations no later than [***] prior to the first day of the month in which the delivery of such nomination is expected to take place. All forecasts of nominations shall include a [***] delivery schedule specifying the volumes and types of Feedstocks that Ryze has nominated to be delivered to the Facility. ▇▇▇▇’s nominations may include a preferential list of Feedstock options. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will deliver and sell to Ryze the quantities of Feedstock nominated, and will make reasonable commercial efforts to accommodate ▇▇▇▇’s Feedstock preferences; provided, however, if ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 cannot deliver exact Feedstock preferences ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall communicate any such expected variances with Ryze. If Ryze accepts such variances in Feedstock to be delivered, then ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall have no liability or responsibility if specific preferences requested by Ryze are not met and Ryze shall accept such Feedstock as ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 delivers to the Facility. Ryze’s nominations may include additional requirements, such as specific suppliers or transportation alternatives, which requirements ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall make reasonable commercial efforts to accommodate.

3.5

Delivery. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will deliver Feedstocks to the Facility by railcar or truck. The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 Rail Provisions in effect on the Effective Date, as the same may be amended from time to time by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 in its reasonable discretion, are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. Ryze shall be notified of any modifications to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 Rail Provisions.

3.6

Title Transfer. Title and custody to Feedstocks will transfer from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 to Ryze when the truck or railcar containing such Feedstocks reaches the Ryze Facility. If such truck or railcar has not reached the Ryze Facility within forty-five (45) Days of BOL, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall be excused from its obligations hereunder, including but not limited to its delivery obligations.

3.7

Quantity Determinations. The volume of Feedstock delivered by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 to the Facility shall be determined according to the volumes set forth in the railcar bill of lading generated at the loading facility.

3.8

Quality Determination. Quality shall be determined by load certificate of analysis.

3.9

Liquidated Damages.

3.9.1

In the event that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 fails to deliver the full volume of a nomination, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall pay to Ryze liquidated damages in the amount of [***] per gallon for any volume delivered less than [***] of the nominated volume unless the failure is due to Ryze not accepting receipt of nominated Feedstock volume for any reason due to no fault of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66, and ▇▇▇▇ hereby waives any and all right to claim damages in excess of such amount. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 acknowledges and agrees that ▇▇▇▇ will be substantially damaged by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66’s failure to deliver the full volume of a nomination and that the resulting damages may be difficult or impossible to determine. Accordingly, the Parties agree that the liquidated damages set forth above are appropriate in lieu of actual damages, that the formulas represent genuine pre-estimates of the damages that ▇▇▇▇ will suffer under these circumstances, and that the liquidated damages are not intended to be and do not constitute a penalty.

3.9.2

In the event ▇▇▇▇ fails to receive all of the volume of Feedstock validly nominated by ▇▇▇▇, Ryze will cover any additional costs incurred by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 and the loss of value between the purchase price and sales price of the Feedstock. Additionally, Ryze will pay ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 [***] per gallon for Feedstock nominated and not received. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize incremental costs and value degradation. ▇▇▇▇ acknowledges and agrees that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will be substantially damaged by ▇▇▇▇’s failure to receive all of the volume of a nomination and that the resulting damages may be difficult or impossible to determine. Accordingly, the Parties agree that the liquidated damages set forth above are appropriate in lieu of actual damages, that the formulas represent genuine pre-estimates of the damages that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will suffer under these circumstances, and that the liquidated damages are not intended to be and do not constitute a penalty.

3.10

Other Terms. To the extent not in conflict with the specific provisions of this Agreement, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 Company Products Purchase/Sale Agreement - General Terms and Conditions, as existing on the Effective Date and as may be revised from time to time, shall apply to the purchases and sales of Feedstocks hereunder and are hereby incorporated by this reference, mutatis mutandis.

PURCHASE AND SALE OF RENEWABLE DIESEL

4.1

Sale of Renewable Diesel. From and after the Commencement Date, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall purchase from Ryze, and Ryze shall sell to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66, one hundred percent (100%) of the production of Renewable Diesel at the Facility, which the Parties anticipate shall be approximately three thousand (3,000) Barrels per day.

4.2

Price.

4.2.1

For each Gallon of Renewable Diesel delivered to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66, ▇▇▇▇ shall charge ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 agrees to pay, an amount equal to the Index RD Price plus the Index LCFS Price plus the RIN Index Price, minus an adjustment of [***] (the “Adder”).

4.2.2

“Index RD Price” shall mean the monthly average of daily prices (excluding weekends and holidays) for the month of delivery at OPIS San Francisco CARB Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel no. 2 Mean for one Gallon. “Index LCFS Price” shall mean the OPIS prompt “any month” monthly average of daily prices quoted price for California Low Carbon Fuel Standard Carbon Credit Mean in $/MT associated with one Gallon of Renewable Diesel. “RIN Index Price” means the OPIS prompt “any month” monthly average of daily prices quoted price for U.S. RIN Values Mean in cts/RIN for the RINs attached to each Gallon of Renewable Diesel. In the event that any of the foregoing indexes ceases to be published, the Parties shall agree on new indexes that should be used in order to preserve the economic benefit each Party negotiated in this Section.

4.2.3

In the event that the Facility stops producing Renewable Diesel for a period in excess of five (5) days, the monthly average prices will be adjusted to eliminate prices for the days on which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 did not receive Renewable Diesel.

4.2.4

Included in the Adder is [***] per Gallon reflecting the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 portion of the OPIS California Cap-at-the-Rack Mean (“CAR”), which the Parties intend to be [***] of the OPIS CAR monthly average of daily prices. If the OPIS CAR (indexed price) increases or decreases during the Term, the adjustment will be modified such that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will continue to receive [***] of the OPIS CAR.

4.2.5

Renewable Diesel not meeting specification will be either purchased at the Adder plus an additional [***] per gallon discount to the purchase price or resupplied to the Facility to be rerun as Feedstock at ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66’s discretion. Off-spec Renewable Diesel that is reprocessed by the Facility will not count as volume purchased by or delivered to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 until such Renewable Diesel has been reprocessed and delivered to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 on-spec ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize incremental costs and value degradation.

4.3

Specifications. All Renewable Diesel shall meet the specifications currently in effect for the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Pipeline specifications for CARB ULSD (code 80) and the cloud point needs to meet the 10 percentile minimum temperature specified in D975 for that month for California, North Coast and California Interior.

4.4

Forecasts and Nominations. The Parties intend that Renewable Diesel will be produced by Ryze at the Facility and delivered to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 on the terms and conditions set forth herein, in approximately ratable quantities for [***] during the Term. No later than [***] prior to the Commencement Date, ▇▇▇▇ will forecast the volumes of Renewable Diesel that it expects to deliver to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 at the Facility during [***] following the Commencement Date. Thereafter, Ryze will continue to forecast nomination requirements at least [***] in advance of deliveries requested thereunder, and shall finalize all such nominations no later than [***] days prior to the first day of the month in which the delivery of such nomination is expected to take place.

4.5

Delivery. Renewable Diesel shall be delivered to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 into railcars or trucks at the sole discretion of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will nominate to Ryze [***] prior to the first day of the next succeeding Month in which the delivery is to take place the mode of transportation by which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will receive each nominated volume, and ▇▇▇▇ will make commercially reasonable efforts to deliver into such mode. If ▇▇▇▇ accepts any ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 nomination but docs not deliver into the mode of transportation specified in such nomination, ▇▇▇▇ will reimburse ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 for its reasonable incremental costs associated with accepting delivery into a different mode of transportation, provided that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize such incremental transportation costs. The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 Rail Provisions in effect on the Effective Date, as the same may be amended from time to time by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 in its reasonable discretion, are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 from time to time may want to amend its requested mode of transportation and ▇▇▇▇ will work with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 to accommodate such an amendment provided that any such change requested shall not adversely affect Ryze’s financial projections.

4.6

Quantity Determinations. The quantity of Renewable Diesel delivered to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall be determined by custody transfer meters and recorded on the bills of lading. In the event that custody transfer meters are unavailable or deemed inaccurate, quantities shall be determined by certified scales. In the event that both custody transfer meters and certified scales are unavailable or deemed inaccurate, quantities shall be determined by static tank gauging.

4.7

Quality Determinations. The quality of Renewable Diesel delivered to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 shall be determined based on static load tank prior to load.

4.8

Title Transfer. Title and custody to Renewable Diesel shall transfer to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 at the Ryze Facility when any load of Product nominated has been delivered into railcars or trucks and upon generation of bill of lading.

4.9

RINS and LCFS Matters. All RINS and LCFS credits and rights associated with Renewable Diesel delivered to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 under this Agreement will transfer to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 other than the financial obligations of all credits payable to Ryze as detailed in this Agreement.

4.10

Liquidated Damages.

4.10.1

In the event that ▇▇▇▇ fails to deliver the full volume of a nomination or delivers more than the full volume of a nomination, Ryze shall pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 liquidated damages in the following amounts unless the failure is due to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 not supplying ▇▇▇▇’s nominated Feedstock volume

4.10.1.1

[***] per Gallon for any volume delivered less than [***] or greater than [***] of the nominated volume during any weekly period; and

4.10.1.2

[***] per Gallon for any volume delivered less than [***] or greater than [***] of the nominated volume during any weekly period.

4.10.2

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 hereby waives any and all right to claim damages in excess of such amount relating to ▇▇▇▇ delivering more or less than the volume of a nomination. ▇▇▇▇ acknowledges and agrees that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will be substantially damaged by ▇▇▇▇’s over-or under-delivery of Renewable Diesel and that the resulting damages may be difficult or impossible to determine. Accordingly, the Parties agree that the liquidated damages set forth above are appropriate in lieu of actual damages, that the formulas represent genuine pre-estimates of the damages that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will suffer under these circumstances, and that the liquidated damages are not intended to be and do not constitute a penalty.

4.11

Other Terms. To the extent not in conflict with the specific provisions of this Agreement, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 Company Products Purchase/Sale Agreement - General Terms and Conditions, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 Addendum for the Sale of Renewable Identification Numbers (“RINs”), and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 Rail Terminal Contract Provisions as existing on the Effective Date and as may be revised from time to time, shall apply to the purchases and sales of Renewable Diesel hereunder and are hereby incorporated by this reference, mutatis mutandis.

RYZE AND ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 SHALL SPLIT SUCH INSPECTION COSTS 50/50 IN THE EVENT OF A MEASUREMENT DISCREPANCY ARISING FROM AN INDEPENDENT THIRD PARTY QUANTITY AND/OR QUALITY DETERMINATION. ADDITIONALLY FROM TIME TO TIME DURING THE TERM, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 AND RYZE SHALL EACH HAVE THE RIGHT, AT THEIR OWN COST AND EXPENSE, HAVE ITS REPRESENTATIVES AND/OR INDEPENDENT INSPECTOR CONDUCT SURVEYS AND INSPECTIONS OF ANY OF THE TANKS AT THE FACILITY WHERE PRODUCT IS STORED OR THE OTHER EQUIPMENT OR FACILITIES AT THE FACILITY THAT ARE USED TO HANDLE, STORE OR TRANSFER THE PRODUCT WITHIN THE FACILITY, AND TO OBSERVE ANY PRODUCT TRANSFER, HANDLING, METERING, TESTING, SAMPLING OR RELATED MEASUREMENT PROCESS AND ACTIVITIES, AS WELL AS TO SAMPLE PRODUCT LOCATED WITHIN ANY SUCH TANKS OR OTHER FACILITIES; PROVIDED THAT SUCH SURVEYS AND INSPECTIONS SHALL BE MADE DURING NORMAL WORKING HOURS AND UPON REASONABLE NOTICE AND SHALL NOT DISRUPT THE FACILITY’S NORMAL OPERATIONS. SUCH SURVEYS AND INSPECTIONS SHALL BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE FACILITY’S PREVAILING RULES AND PROCEDURES, AND ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 REPRESENTATIVES AND/OR THE INDEPENDENT INSPECTOR UNDERTAKING SUCH SURVEY OR INSPECTION SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ITS OWN PERSONNEL AND REPRESENTATIVES. POST-TERMINATION RIGHT TO INSPECT. IF ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN THE PARTIES HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED AS OF THE EARLY TERMINATION DATE OR TERMINATION DATE, AS APPLICABLE, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66’S INSPECTION RIGHTS UNDER THIS SECTION 6 SHALL CONTINUE UNTIL THE DATE ON WHICH ALL AMOUNTS DUE BY ONE PARTY TO THE OTHER PARTY AS A RESULT OF TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF THIS AGREEMENT ARE PAID.

INVOICING AND PAYMENT

7.1

Invoices. Ryze will invoice ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 twice per month. One provisional invoice will account for activity during the first 10 days of the month. The pricing of Renewable Diesel purchased by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 on this provisional invoice will be based on Index averages applying to the period. A final invoice will be sent following month end to account for any additional activity during the remainder of the month and adjusting provisional invoice pricing for the actual month average price. Deducted from the invoiced amount will be the actual known cost of the Feedstock and the estimated quarterly per Gallon secondary cost. The estimated quarterly secondary cost will be intended to reflect the cost of transportation, terminalling, storage, and the [***] per gallon feedstock payment. It will be agreed upon at least 5 business days prior to the beginning of each quarter. The estimated quarterly per gallon secondary cost may be adjusted prior to the beginning of any month for the remainder of a quarter by mutual agreement. Any liquidated damages and/or any off-spec product payments by either party to either party will be added or subtracted from each invoice. Applicable feedstock and secondary costs will not be deducted for the first 10 days of effective date of the agreement and will be recovered in the final billing of the contract term by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66. A quarterly true-up invoice or credit will be sent by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 prior to the last business day of the month following the close of the quarter. True-up cost exceeding 10% of the total estimated cost for the relevant quarter will be invoiced or credited at 3 monthly increments, if requested. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 will provide actual costs monthly to the extent known. Payment will be due 10 days within Receipt of Invoices.

7.2

Method of Payment. All payments shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds or by Automated Clearing House credit in U.S. Dollars to Seller at such address or depository as Seller may designate in writing.

7.3

Rounding. Rounding conventions shall be as follows: Product pricing in Gallons shall be rounded to the nearest fourth decimal place; Product pricing in Barrels shall be rounded to the nearest third decimal place, all U.S. Dollar amounts shall be rounded to the nearest cent.

7.4

Late Payments; Interest; Disputed Amounts. Any amount payable for any cargo of Product or otherwise payable by Buyer to Seller hereunder shall, if not paid when due, bear interest from the due date until the date payment is received by Seller at an annual rate (based on a 360-day year) equal to the rate of two (2) percentage points above the prime rate of interest effective for the payment due date as published in the Wall Street Journal, but not more than the maximum rate of interest permitted under Applicable Law. Buyer shall pay such interest within five (5) Business Days following receipt of Seller’s invoice for such interest. If ▇▇▇▇▇, in good faith, disputes the accuracy of the amount due in respect of a Transaction, ▇▇▇▇▇ will timely pay the undisputed amount and provide a written explanation of the nature of the dispute along with supporting documentation acceptable in industry practice. If it is determined by mutual agreement of the Parties or by a court of competent jurisdiction that Buyer owes the disputed amount, then ▇▇▇▇▇ shall pay interest in accordance with this Section on such disputed amount from and including the originally scheduled due date to but excluding the date paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 is ▇▇▇▇▇ and has notified Seller of the dispute, Seller shall send to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 an invoice with only the undisputed portion of the amount owed, and may send a separate invoice with the disputed amount, both of which shall be paid by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section.

If either Party fails to provide up to two (2) quotes, then the average of all quotes obtained by the Parties shall determine the replacement price. A “Market Disruption Event” means, with respect to an index specified, any of the following events: (a) the failure of the index to announce or publish information necessary for determining the contract price; (b) the failure of trading to commence or the permanent discontinuation or material suspension of trading on the exchange or market acting as the index; (c) the temporary or permanent discontinuance or unavailability of the index; (d) the temporary or permanent closing of any exchange acting as the index; or (e) both Parties agree that a material change in the formula for or the method of determining the contract price has occurred.

12.

FACILITY MAINTENANCE AND CLOSURE

12.1

Coordination of Facility Maintenance and Closures. Notwithstanding any nomination requirements, ▇▇▇▇ shall inform ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 of any planned outages relating to the Facility upon becoming aware of such.

13.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION: CREDIT SUPPORT

13.1

Provision of Financial Information. Upon reasonable notice, Ryze shall provide financial and other information to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 as ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 may reasonably request to enable it to ascertain the current financial condition of Ryze.

13.2

Notification of Certain Events. Ryze shall notify ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 within three (3) Business Days after learning of any events that will cause or are reasonably likely to cause an Event of Default or a Material Adverse Change with respect to Ryze.

13.3

Performance Assurance. If at any time ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 has reasonable grounds for insecurity (including, without limitation, following the occurrence of a Material Adverse Change), or Ryze exceeds the credit line then in effect as from time to time established by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 may immediately require Ryze to provide Performance Assurance. “Performance Assurance” shall mean, at ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66’s option in the amount of [***]: (a) a prepayment, (b) cash collateral in an amount acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66, or (c) an irrevocable standby letter of credit in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66’s favor in an amount acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 and in a form and substance specified by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 and issued or confirmed by a bank acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 (an “L/C”). Ryze grants to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 a continuing first priority security interest in, lien on and right of setoff against all Performance Assurance in the form of each transferred by ▇▇▇▇ to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66. All bank charges attendant to an L/C shall be for the account Ryze. Delivery of the L/C shall be made within two (2) Business Days of such request by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66, but all other Performance Assurances shall be provided by the close of business on the Business Day following demand. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 may immediately suspend deliveries or receipts to or from Ryze pending receipt of any required Performance Assurance. Any demurrage resulting from delays pending receipt by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 of required Performance Assurance shall be for account of Ryze. Ryze acknowledges that the credit line may be a negative amount and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 may require Performance Assurance to be in an amount that is sufficient to cover the anticipated exposure. As of the Effective Date, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 has determined to require the Initial Collateral as Performance Assurance.

If Buyer claims exemption from any Product Taxes or fees, Buyer shall provide Seller with the appropriately executed exemption certificates. If taxes in (b) and (c) of this paragraph arise before transfer of title to Buyer, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall still pay, reimburse, defend and hold harmless seller for such taxes and fees.

16.4

Claims for Product Taxes. In the event either Buyer or Seller becomes aware of a potential or actual liability to make any payment of Product Taxes which might give rise to a claim, it shall give notice of the circumstances to the other Party as soon as reasonably practicable, in order to allow both Parties reasonable opportunity to seek to minimize their liability for such Product Taxes, acting always in compliance with the laws of the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Party shall give the other Party such assistance as is reasonable in the circumstances in this regard, and Buyer or Seller (as appropriate) shall not make any payment of such Product Taxes until the due date on which such Product Taxes are due and payable in accordance with the relevant tax regulations unless an early payment could result in a reduction of the liability to such Product Taxes.

16.5

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66’s Right to Export. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 reserves the right to export Renewable Diesel from the Facility and Ryze shall provide any necessary documentation required to facilitate the export.

Responsibility for Taxes. Except with respect to the payment of Product Taxes as set forth in this Agreement, each Party shall pay any and all federal, state and local taxes, duties, fees and charges of every description that is due from such Party to a Governmental Authority, including (a) any tax imposed on or measured by net profits, gross or net income, or gross receipts (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any transaction taxes such as sales, use, gross earnings or gross receipts or similar taxes that are based upon gross receipts, gross earnings or gross revenues received from the sale of petroleum products, which, for the avoidance of doubt, is included in the definition of “Product Taxes”); (ii) any tax measured by capital value or net worth, whether denominated as franchise taxes, doing business taxes, capital stock taxes or the like; (iii) business license or franchise taxes or registration fees, or (iv) property taxes.

16.7

Operating Lease Classification. The Parties intend that this Agreement shall be treated for accounting purposes as an operating lease and not as a capital lease, as such terms are defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13 (“FAS No. 13”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 to purchase the Facility, or to cause ownership or title to the Facility or any portion thereof to be transferred to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) all payments by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 hereunder are in consideration of Products supplied by ▇▇▇▇ and do not constitute a purchase on behalf of Ryze, or financing for the purchase by ▇▇▇▇, of the equipment or other property used by Ryze to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) during and after the expiration of the Term, Ryze will retain substantially all of the benefits and risks related to ownership of the Facility and associated equipment. If, after the Effective Date, there shall occur any change in GAAP or FAS No. 13 that would require treating payments by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 66 under this Agreement as capital lease payments where such payments would not have been required to be so treated under GAAP or FAS No. 13 as in effect on the Effective Date, such payments shall continue to be treated as operating lease payments for the remainder of the Term of this Agreement following such change in GAAP or FAS No. 13.

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy under this Agreement or provided by Applicable Law shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other exercise or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies (provided by Applicable Law or otherwise). Any waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach.
