(a)The ten days of fuel payables to be assumed by Buyer as described in Item 3 of Section 1.1(AL)(3) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule are referred to herein as the “Assumed Fuel Payables.” The Assumed Fuel Payables shall be paid by Buyer on payment terms of net ten (10) days, daily on Business Days commencing on May 14, 2021, based upon the information set forth in the Estimated Fuel Payable Statement (as defined below) by wire transfer or by ACH (and not by EFT) to an account specified in writing by Sellers (such aggregate payments actually paid by Buyer, the “Initial Assumed Fuel Payables Payments”).
(b)Sellers and Seller Parent have delivered to Buyer a detailed calculation of a portion of the estimated Assumed Fuel Payables and shall deliver to Buyer on or about May 18, 2021 a detailed calculation of the remainder of the estimated Assumed Fuel Payables (the “Estimated Fuel Payable Statement”).

procedures set forth in Sections 2.4(c)–(g) and (i) of the Purchase Agreement regarding the review and resolution of disputes related to the Preliminary Adjustment Statement shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Estimated Fuel Payable Statement; provided that (i) the right to review and dispute the Estimated Fuel Payable Statement shall be Buyer’s rather than Sellers’ and (ii) the Review Period shall be ninety (90) days following the Closing Date.

Buyer (if the Fuel Payables Adjustment is a positive number) or Sellers (if the Fuel Payables Adjustment is a negative number), as the case may be, shall, within five (5) Business Days after the determination of the Fuel Payables Adjustment pursuant to this Section 6, make payment to the other (or, in the case of a payment by Buyer, to Sellers or one or more of Sellers’ respective designees identified in writing to Buyer prior to Closing) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by the other an amount equal to the absolute value of the Fuel Payables Adjustment as determined pursuant to this Section 6.
(c)For the avoidance of doubt, the pricing formulas for the Assumed Fuel Payables refer to the Fuel Supply Agreement, and to the extent that the pricing formulas under the Fuel Supply Agreement are adjusted pursuant to that certain Unbranded Fuel Supply Agreement Pricing Side Letter, dated as of August 2, 2020, from Seller Parent and acknowledged by Buyer, then the pricing formulas used in calculating the Assumed Fuel Payables shall also be so adjusted, and Sellers shall make payment to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by Buyer within five (5) Business Days after such adjustment.
7.Environmental Insurance Policy Costs, Deposits, Premium and Taxes. Buyer has obtained four (4) Environmental Insurance Policies (each, an “EIP”), which include three (3) EIPs that provide coverage for the Retail Sites to be sold by Buyer in connection with the Divestiture Actions after the Closing and one (1) EIP that provides coverage for the remainder of the Retail Sites to be acquired by Buyer at Closing. Each EIP will be in full force and effect as of the Closing and, in accordance with Section 5.25 of the Purchase Agreement, Sellers shall pay when due the underwriting costs, deposit, premium and taxes arising out of or incurred with respect to each EIP, not in excess of $10,000,000 in the aggregate.
8.No Other Amendments to the Purchase Agreement.
(a)On and after the date hereof, each reference in the Purchase Agreement to “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” or words of similar import shall mean and be a reference to the Purchase Agreement as amended hereby.
(b)Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement remain unchanged and continue in full force and effect.

9.Miscellaneous. The provisions of Article IX of the Purchase Agreement are incorporated into, and shall apply to, this Amendment, mutatis mutandis.
10.Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement, it being understood that all of the parties need not sign the same counterpart. For purposes of this Amendment, facsimile and .pdf signatures shall be deemed originals for all purposes.
