2.2 This Agreement is subject to all present Applicable Laws and any future Applicable Law imposed by Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction over the Parties. In performing its obligations hereunder, each Party warrants that it shall comply with all Applicable Laws now and then in-effect applicable to such Party.

2.3 Sanctions Laws. Each Party agrees to cooperate pursuant to this Agreement in such a manner as to ensure that such Party and its affiliates, owners, directors, officers, employees and agents, subcontractors, and every other person acting on its behalf, has complied and will comply with all applicable U.S. export controls, economic sanctions, and anti-boycott laws, including but not limited to the Export Administration Regulations (15 C.F.R.

Seller represents and warrants that it will notify Buyer immediately should the U.S. Government place it, or any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents, on a U.S. Government blacklist.

2.4 Compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws. Each Party represents, warrants, certifies and undertakes that it, and each of its representatives, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and in connection with any other business transactions involving the other Party: (a) shall comply with all anti-corruption legislation in any and all countries anywhere in the world where the Fuel will be delivered to Buyer, including, but not limited to, Anti-Corruption Laws of the United States of America, the United Kingdom, the United Nations, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development and the country or countries in which the Services will be provided (“Anti-Corruption Laws”); and (b) has not engaged, and shall not engage, in any acts or transactions in violation of, or otherwise inconsistent with the principles of, any Anti-Corruption Laws.

3. SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

3.1 Seller warrants that the Fuel produced shall comply with ASTM Standard Specification D7566 Annex 5, “Standard Specification for Aviation Turbine Fuel Containing Synthesized Hydrocarbons” at the time of delivery at the Delivery Point. Seller further warrants that prior to the time of delivery Seller shall secure the applicable recertification or approval of the blended output and that at the time of delivery at the Delivery Point such blended output shall comply with ASTM Standard Specification D1655.

3.2 The Fuel will deliver lifecycle emissions reductions as compared to conventional jet fuel, based on the Argonne National Laboratory GREET Model, in accordance with the following (collectively, the “Lifecycle Emissions Allocation”):

a) Before January 1, 2030, at least [*****]% lifecycle emissions reductions as compared to conventional jet fuel; and

b) On or after January 1, 2030, at least [*****]% lifecycle emissions reductions as compared to conventional jet fuel.

3.3 [*****].

3.4 Seller will provide Buyer the following: (a) ISCC Certification form at the beginning of the Term, and then again if the feedstock changes, (b) no later than the end of January, relevant details in the CORSIA Eligible Fuel Claim Form (see Appendix A) relating to Fuel purchase in the immediately preceding year, in each case, and (c) a product transfer form with each Fuel delivery.

3.5 Any other supply specification requires approval by Buyer and a complete specification must be attached to the Agreement.

3.6 EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED IN SECTION 3.1, THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES OR WARRANTIES HEREIN, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS OR SUITABILITY OF THE FUEL FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE.

3.7 Seller’s Intellectual Property Infringement Indemnity.

a) If an action is brought or threatened against Buyer claiming that Buyer’s use, as permitted herein, of the Fuel infringes any Intellectual Property rights arising or existing under Applicable Law, Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer Indemnitees from and against any and all Claims and Losses of Buyer and its Affiliates to the extent arising from such action or claim.

b) If Buyer’s permitted use of the Fuel is materially impaired, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts, at its expense, to continue its supply obligations under this Agreement, including at its own election and expense (i) to substitute an equivalent non-infringing product for the allegedly infringing Fuel, (ii) to modify the allegedly infringing Fuel so that it no longer infringes but remains functionally equivalent or better or (iii) to obtain for Buyer the right to continue using such Fuel; provided, however, that in all cases the Fuel shall comply with the specifications set forth in Section 3.1 above. If the Fuel does not qualify for Production Emissions Credits or User-Specific Credits as a result of any such substitution, the price paid by Buyer shall be reduced by the amount of the credit that Buyer would have otherwise received hereunder; [*****]. Seller shall, prior to proceeding with any of the foregoing actions, consult with Buyer as to the proposed action and consider in good faith any reasonable request of Buyer in respect thereof. Nothing herein constitutes a guarantee by Seller that such efforts will succeed in avoiding the infringement claim or that Seller will be able to replace the infringing Fuel with a product of comparable functionality or effectiveness. If Seller reasonably believes that an injunction against use of the Fuel may be granted against Buyer, either imminently or with the passage of time, Seller may at its expense, and upon reasonable prior written notice to Buyer, take any of the foregoing actions in order to minimize its liability.

c)

This Section 3.4 does not apply to, and Seller assumes no liability with respect to, Claims and Losses for patent infringement or copyright infringement or improper use of other proprietary rights (including any license or Intellectual Property, whether by way of copyright or otherwise) to the extent that such Claims or Losses relate, in whole or in part, to (i) Buyer’s modification or alteration of the Fuel (except to the extent permitted by this Agreement), made without Seller’s written consent or contrary to Seller’s instructions, or (ii) the combination of the Fuel with other products or materials after the Delivery Point, other than the combination of the Fuel with other fuel meeting the ASTM Standard Specification D1655 while in storage at the on-airport storage facility.

d)

The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.4 state the entire liability and obligations of Seller and its Affiliates, and the exclusive remedy of the Buyer Indemnitees, with respect to any actual or alleged infringement of patents, copyrights, trademarks or other Intellectual Property by the Fuel sold and delivered hereunder.

e) Buyer shall promptly notify Seller in writing following receipt of written notice of any claims alleging infringement of patents or other proprietary rights (including Intellectual Property) in connection with Buyer’s permitted use of the Fuel or Seller’s performance of its supply obligations under this Agreement, and shall provide Seller with all information in its possession relevant to such claim.

3.8 If an action is brought or threatened against Seller claiming that any condition or event described in Section 3.7(c) results in an infringement upon any Intellectual Property arising or existing under Applicable Law, Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Indemnitees at Buyer’s expense from and against any and all Claims and Losses of Seller Indemnitees to the extent arising from such action or claim.

4. QUALITY

4.1 Seller must ensure that Fuel is not contaminated and that the quality of Fuel delivered to the Buyer is maintained at all times throughout the supply chain from the refinery to the Delivery Point and during blending and recertification. For this purpose, and subject to the remaining provisions of the Agreement, Seller shall ensure that the policies, standards, procedures and any other practices recommended in ICAO Doc 9977 are implemented and complied with by the Seller, Seller’s Agents, suppliers, operators and any other parties engaged in the operation and/or the supply of Fuel.

5. DELIVERY & EMISSIONS CREDITS

5.1 Title to and risk of loss of the Fuel shall pass to Buyer at the Delivery Point.

5.2 Seller’s measurement shall be accepted as prima facie evidence of the quantities of Fuel delivered, but Buyer shall be entitled to check the accuracy of the instruments used by Seller upon reasonable notice during Seller’s normal operating hours in the presence of Seller’s representative. Determinations of quantities made in accordance with international industry practice shall be binding.

5.3 Any Fuel or blend thereof sold under the Agreement, which is found to be Off-Specification Fuel or Contaminated Fuel may be rejected by Buyer, at Buyer’s sole discretion. Buyer shall not be required to pay Seller for any Off-Specification Fuel or Contaminated Fuel rejected by Buyer hereunder, or for any output rejected by Buyer that is not blended in accordance with the specification agreed in writing by the Parties.

5.4 Without prejudice to Seller’s other obligations and Buyer’s rights under this Agreement, Seller shall pro-actively take reasonable steps to keep informed, and will use its best endeavors to ensure that Buyer is notified as soon as practicable

a) of any matter that could reasonably be expected to impact Seller’s ability to supply Buyer in accordance with the Agreement; Seller will provide Buyer with relevant information regarding the matter and any Seller planned actions to minimize any impact on Buyer, and in the case of any disruption to supply, provide daily updates or relevant information in writing until the supply disruption is resolved; and

b) of any infrastructure works which Seller may be aware of and which potentially may impact available supply to the Buyer.

5.5 The Parties shall reasonably cooperate to establish a mutually agreeable monthly delivery schedule for Fuel to be delivered hereunder, taking into account the capabilities of the Seller Facilities and Seller’s obligations to its other customers, it being the expectation that such schedule shall provide for delivery of the Minimum Annual Contract Quantity substantially on a ratable basis, provided that Buyer may request a reasonable variation to the monthly amount with sixty (60) days’ advance written notice (but without limiting Buyer’s obligation to take and pay for the Minimum Annual Contract Quantity for the year in question); provided, however, that Buyer shall pay for and receive, or cause to be received by a third party, or pay for even if not taken, at least twenty percent (20%) of the Minimum Annual Contract Quantity on a quarterly basis.

5.6 [*****].

5.7 The Parties acknowledge that as of the date hereof there are various Production Emissions Credits and User-Specific Credits related schemes or programs currently under consideration (e.g., the Renewable Energy Directive) but which have not yet been finalized. On or before the Commencement Date, Seller agrees to obtain, at Seller’s cost and expense, a Sustainability Certification with respect to each Seller Facility. In addition, by the later of: (i) the Commencement Date, and (ii) the date CORSIA goes into effect, Seller shall cause the Fuel to be certified as an eligible fuel for participation in CORSIA. If Seller has not caused the Fuel to be certified as an eligible fuel for participation in CORSIA within the time frame set forth in the preceding sentence, Seller shall have an additional six (6) month period to cure such failure. If Seller has not obtained such certification under CORSIA within such six (6) month cure period, Buyer shall have the right to terminate the Agreement on twenty (20) days’ written notice to Seller, without any further liability of either Party arising out of such termination. After obtaining the same, Seller shall maintain such Sustainability Certification and certification under CORSIA for the duration of the Term. If the Fuel fails to be eligible for emission offset measures under the Renewable Energy Directive or fails to qualify as a CORSIA eligible fuel, the purchase price for the Fuel shall be reduced by the portion of the economic value of the applicable credits that Buyer otherwise would have received under such programs pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, if the Fuel subsequently becomes eligible for CORSIA or for emission offset measures under the Renewable Energy Directive, the reduction in purchase price for the Fuel in connection with such initial ineligibility shall be reversed. To the extent the subsequent eligibility entitles the Fuel to earn any applicable credits retroactively, Seller may reverse such reduction in price retroactively.

5.8 [*****]. To the extent a recognition, award, or allocation of offsets, credits, allowances, or other tangible rights scheme or regime applicable to the Fuel is established such that it is not clear whether a Production Emissions Credit or User-Specific Credit is generated or created, Seller and Buyer shall first attempt to reach mutual agreement on the allocation of such recognition, award, or allocation of offsets, credits, allowances, or other tangible rights scheme or regime applicable to the Fuel in accordance with the foregoing intent and, if such allocation is not possible, Seller and Buyer agree to take such steps as may be necessary and appropriate to share equally in the economic value of such recognition, award, or allocation of offsets, credits, allowances, or other tangible rights applicable to the Fuel. In the event and to the extent that a recognition, award, or allocation of offsets, credits, allowances, or other tangible rights scheme or regime applicable to the Fuel allows for dual use of a recognition, award, or allocation of offsets, credits, allowances, or other tangible rights applicable to the Fuel both as a Production Emissions Credit and a User-Specific Credit, [*****]; provided that if such recognition, award, or allocation of offsets, credits, allowances, or other tangible rights scheme or regime applicable to the Fuel allows only the Production Emissions Credit or the User-Specific Credit to be used, but not both, then Seller and Buyer agree to take such steps as may be necessary and appropriate to maximize the economic value of such credits and to share equally therein. As new or modified schemes and regimes for recognition, award, or allocation of offsets, credits, allowances, or other tangible rights applicable to the Fuel arise in the future, Seller and Buyer agree to cooperate in good faith to confirm in writing the allocation of such recognition, award, or allocation of offsets, credits, allowances, or other tangible rights applicable to the Fuel in accordance with the foregoing principles. If, pursuant to the foregoing, the Parties agree to share in new or modified schemes and regimes, and, following and in accordance with such agreement, the Fuel fails to generate the applicable credits or attributes, the purchase price for the Fuel shall be reduced by the value of such credits or attributes that Buyer otherwise would have received.

6. INSPECTIONS, AUDITS AND SAMPLES

6.1 Buyer or its representative shall have the right to perform a (technical) survey, audit or inspection of Seller’s records on quality control and checks of the Fuel. The records set forth in this Section 6.1 shall be made available for inspection or survey, as the case may be, by Buyer at the Seller Facilities. A (technical) survey or inspection shall be made during normal working hours. Buyer shall give reasonable notice of its intention to perform a technical survey or inspection as provided in this Section 6.1, and shall use its best endeavors not to hinder, delay or disrupt Seller’s activities.

6.2 Buyer or its representative shall have the right to obtain samples of the Fuel intended to be delivered to Buyer in accordance with the Agreement, to be taken by Seller or Seller’s representative with Buyer having the right to be present. Buyer shall give Seller reasonable advance notice of its intention to obtain samples.

7. COMPLAINTS & CLAIMS

7.1 Complaints as to short delivery or delays shall be notified to Seller at the time of delivery, followed by a written claim to be made within fifteen (15) days after delivery.

7.2 Complaints as to defects in quality or any other matter shall be notified to Seller as soon as practicable, followed by a written claim to be made within thirty (30) days after delivery.

7.3 If the claim is not made within either the 15-days period or the 30-days period, respectively, it represents a waiver of the right to claim. In no event is a waiver of the right to claim made or implied by a signature or any other statement on the Delivery Note, irrespective of whether or not such Delivery Note contains conditions implying such waiver.

8. DUTIES, TAXES AND CHARGES

8.1 Buyer shall pay any taxes, fees or other charges, imposed by any national, local or airport authority on the delivery, sale, inspection, storage and use of Fuel, except for taxes on Seller’s income and taxes on raw material. To the extent allowed, Seller shall show these taxes, fees and other charges as separate items on the invoice for the account of Buyer.

8.2 Seller shall keep Buyer informed at all times about the taxes, duties and charges existing or to be charged to Buyer. Should Seller, however, in good faith provide inaccurate or incomplete information to Buyer, Buyer shall not be relieved of the obligation to pay. Buyer may, or at Buyer’s request, Seller shall, as an applicable nominal party, take all actions necessary to contest the validity, applicability or any other like challenge with respect to the amount or application of such taxes, duties and charges (including but not limited to withholding of any tax) and shall institute actions to recover past or anticipated payments thereof, provided, as to withholding of any tax, that Buyer gives Seller an indemnity which meets any reasonable requirement of Seller. Unless other arrangements are made, all actions taken in this respect shall be at Buyer’s sole expense. If Buyer is entitled to purchase any Fuel sold pursuant to the Agreement free of any taxes, duties or charges, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a valid exemption certificate for such purchase.

9. FORCE MAJEURE

9.1 In addition to any waivers (arising out of the same or other causes) provided by operation of law, no failure or omission by either Party to carry out or observe any of the provisions of the Agreement (except for Section 9.6 hereunder) shall give rise to any claim against that Party, or be deemed to be a breach of the Agreement, if the same shall arise out of a Force Majeure event. A Force Majeure event for the purposes of this Agreement means any cause not within the reasonable control of the Party claiming Force Majeure (whether or not foreseeable) and not occasioned by such Party’s fault or negligence that prevents or delays, in whole or in part, such Party’s performance of one or more of its obligations under this Agreement. Provided that they satisfy the foregoing requirements, Force Majeure events may include such causes as labor disputes, strikes, governmental intervention, or the Party’s response to the insistence of any governmental instrumentality or Person purporting to act therefore, terrorism, wars, civil commotion, hijacking, fire, flood, accident, storm or any act of God.

Fuel Supply Agreement Annex I | Page 8

Confidential

9.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.1, neither Party shall be relieved by reason of Force Majeure of any obligation to make payment under the Agreement. Neither the ability of Buyer to obtain better economic terms for Fuel from an alternative supplier, nor any cost increase resulting from a circumstance that in itself is not a Force Majeure event, however substantial, in Seller’s performance of the Agreement, as applicable, shall constitute Force Majeure. The default of a sub-supplier or subcontractor shall not constitute a Force Majeure event (except to the extent the sub-supplier or subcontractor is affected by a Force Majeure event).

9.3 The Party affected by the Force Majeure shall use all reasonable endeavors to remove such reasons or mitigate the effects thereof, and upon removal and remedying of such reason said Party shall promptly resume the performance of its obligations, provided, however, that, in removing such reasons or mitigating such efforts, a Party shall not be required to settle strikes or lockouts or government claims by acceding to any demands when, in the discretion of that Party, it would be inappropriate to do so.

9.4 If deliveries are delayed, hindered or prevented due to Force Majeure on Seller’s part, Buyer shall be free to purchase Fuel from third parties during such period.

9.5 Buyer shall be released from the obligation to receive and/or pay for any Fuel not provided or made available by Seller to Buyer due to a Force Majeure.

9.6 In the duration of any Force Majeure event affecting Seller, Seller shall be entitled to apportion the remaining capacity of Fuel as it sees fit, albeit in an equitable and non-discriminatory manner.

9.7 If an event of Force Majeure affecting Seller occurs, and such event of Force Majeure wholly prevents Seller from making available any Fuel hereunder to Buyer, Seller may, in its sole discretion, notify Buyer of Seller’s extension of the term of any particular Location Agreement by a number of days equal to the period from the day such event of Force Majeure took effect until the end of such event of Force Majeure, on condition that such extension of the Agreement is also acceptable to the Buyer.

10. LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY

10.1 Buyer shall indemnify, defend, HOLD and save harmless the Seller Indemnitees from and against any and all Claims and Losses of Third Parties for loss of or damage to any property whatsoever or for injury, including fatal injury, and death to any person whatsoever that arise out of or are connected with actions or omissions in the performance by Buyer of its obligations under this Agreement, or that arise out of or are connected with the handling, storage, sales, transportation, use, misuse, blending, processing or disposal by or on behalf of Buyer, Buyer’s customers, or their respective Affiliates or their contractors or carriers of any tier, of any Fuel after such Fuel has been delivered to the Delivery Point, except in each case to the extent caused by Seller’s breach of the Agreement, or the negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or any Seller Indemnitee.

10.2 Seller shall indemnify, defend and save harmless the Buyer Indemnitees from and against any and all Claims and Losses of Third Parties for loss of or damage to any property whatsoever or for injury, including fatal injury, and death to any person whatsoever that arise out of or are connected with actions or omissions in the performance by Seller of its obligations under this Agreement, or that arise out of or are connected with the handling, storage, sales, transportation, use, misuse, blending, processing or disposal by or on behalf of Seller or its Affiliates or their contractors or carriers of any tier, of any Fuel prior to the time such Fuel has been delivered to the Delivery Point, except in each case to the extent caused by Buyer’s breach of the Agreement, the negligence or willful misconduct of Buyer or any Buyer Indemnitee.

Fuel Supply Agreement Annex I | Page 9

Confidential

10.3 The liability of Seller for any loss, damage, claim or other expenditure arising from Seller failing to perform its obligations under the Agreement shall be limited to the prompt refund of the price of an affected delivery or (at Seller’s option), the replacement of affected Fuel at no additional cost to Buyer. The preceding sentence and limitations shall not apply in relation to any indemnities owed by the Seller to the Buyer, including under preceding Section 10.2.

10.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these General Terms and Conditions or the Agreement, neither Party shall, under any circumstances, be liable to the other Party for consequential, incidental, special, punitive, or exemplary damages arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, lost profits or loss of business, or business interruption damages, even if apprised of the likelihood of such damages occurring, and regardless of whether available in tort or agreement or by statute. These limitations shall apply even if it causes a remedy in this Agreement to have failed of its essential purpose. the limitations of this Section 10.4 shall not prevent the recovery through the indemnification provisions of this Article 10 of consequential, incidental, special, punitive, or exemplary damages suffered by and paid to a Third Party by an indemnified Party (excluding Third Party customers of an indemnified Party) as a result of actions included in the protection afforded by the indemnification provisions of Article 10.

11. TERMINATION

11.1 In addition to any other rights of termination expressly set forth in this Agreement, in the event Seller withdraws its operation from or Buyer ceases its operation at any location mentioned in a Location Agreement, in any such case for any reason, either Party shall have the right to terminate such Location Agreement. However, in no event shall any such termination relieve Buyer of its obligation to take and pay for, or pay for even if not taken, the Minimum Annual Contract Quantity specified in Article 8 of the Agreement for the remainder of its Term; provided, however, that Buyer shall have no obligation to take and pay for, or pay for even if not taken, quantities specified under such Location Agreement where Seller terminates as provided in the first sentence of this Section 11.1. Where the Seller is the terminating Party, the Seller shall use its best endeavors to give three months’ notice of such termination. Where the Buyer is the terminating Party, the Buyer shall use its best endeavors to give 30 (thirty) days’ notice of such termination. The termination will be effective no earlier than the date stated in the written notice to the other Party.

12. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

12.1 A Party shall be deemed to be in default hereunder if any of the following events occur (each of the following events to be referred to as an “Event of Default”, the Party in default to be referred to as the “Defaulting Party” and the Party not in default to be referred to as the “Non-Defaulting Party”):

a) The failure to make, when due, any payment required pursuant to this Agreement if such failure is not remedied within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof;

b) In case of a material breach (or a number of breaches that collectively constitute a material breach, including any continuous or persistent breaches) of the Agreement by the other Party, but only insofar the other Party has not cured its breach of the Agreement within sixty (60) days of receiving written notice of the default from the first Party, provided that if such sixty (60) day period is not sufficient to enable the remedy or cure of such failure in performance, and such Party shall have upon receipt of the initial notice promptly commenced and diligently continues thereafter to remedy such failure, then such Party shall have a reasonable additional period of time not to exceed an additional sixty (60) day period;

Fuel Supply Agreement Annex I | Page 10

Confidential

c) If the other Party becomes insolvent, makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or commits an act of bankruptcy or if a petition for its reorganization or readjustment of its indebtedness is filed by or against it and, in the case of any such petition filed against it, such petition is not dismissed within ninety (90) days, or if a receiver, trustee or liquidation of all or substantially all of its property is appointed;

d) Any representation or warranty made by such Party herein is false or misleading in any material respect when made or when deemed made or repeated; or

e) For the benefit of Seller, if Buyer fails to satisfy the creditworthiness/collateral requirements of this Agreement and such failure continues for five (5) Business Days after written notice thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party shall not be in default of its obligations hereunder to the extent such failure is, and to that extent only, (i) caused by or is otherwise attributable to a breach by the other Party of its obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) occurs as a result of a Force Majeure event declared by a Party in accordance with this Agreement.

12.2 If either Party reasonably believes that an event has occurred which, if not remedied within the applicable cure period explicitly set forth in Section 12.1 above, would result in an Event of Default by or affecting the other Party, the Non-Defaulting Party shall give the Defaulting Party a notice (a “Default Notice”), which shall specify and provide particulars of the alleged Event of Default. If such Event of Default continues uncured following the cure period specified above for such Event of Default, then the Non-Defaulting Party shall have such remedies as may be available to it at law or in equity subject, however, to the limitations on liability provided herein. For clarity, this shall non-exhaustively include the right to forthwith terminate this Agreement or a Location Agreement (to the extent applicable to any Location Agreement with respect to which an Event of Default has occurred) on written notice to the Defaulting Party. If no cure period is specified in Section 12.1 for the Event of Default evoked by a Party, then occurrence of such Event of Default shall entitle the non-Defaulting Party to terminate this Agreement and any Location Agreement(s) forthwith.

12.3 Notwithstanding early termination, each Party shall fulfill all obligations accrued under the Agreement prior to the time the termination becomes effective and shall not be released from antecedent/accrued rights or liabilities.

13. SUBCONTRACTING

Seller may, without prior consent of Buyer, subcontract the performance of its obligations under the Agreement in whole or in part to a third party, provided that Seller acknowledges and agrees that it shall be responsible to Buyer for the acts and omissions of its subcontractors to the same extent as Seller is responsible to Buyer for the acts or omissions of its own employees.

14. NON-WAIVER

No failure or delay of any Party (including their employees and Agents) to exercise any right or power under the Agreement or at law shall operate as a waiver thereof, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power under the Agreement, and no waiver of any Party of any provision or part of any provision of the Agreement shall be binding unless expressly confirmed in writing.

15. NON-DISCLOSURE

15.1 “Confidential Information” means any information disclosed by either Party to the other Party, directly or indirectly, in writing, orally, or by inspection of tangible objects (including documents, prototypes, samples, plant, and equipment), which is designated as “Confidential,” “Proprietary,” or some similar designation, or that should reasonably be understood to be confidential from the context of disclosure. Confidential Information will not, however, include any information that the receiving Party can show by competent evidence: (a) was publicly known and made generally available in the public domain prior to the time of disclosure by the disclosing Party; (b) becomes publicly known and made generally available after disclosure by the disclosing Party to the receiving Party through no action or inaction of the receiving Party; (c) is already in the possession of the receiving Party at the time of disclosure by the disclosing Party, as shown by the receiving Party’s files and records, except if so antecedently received by a Person in the context of the negotiation of this Agreement; (d) is obtained by the receiving Party from a third party without breach of the third party’s obligations of confidentiality; or (e) is independently developed by the receiving Party without use of or reference to the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agreement, the information contained in the Agreement and the existence of the Agreement itself shall be considered Confidential Information. Each receiving Party shall keep the Confidential Information disclosed to it by the disclosing Party confidential, shall take all measures reasonably necessary to safeguard confidentiality (at any rate no less than those taken by a reasonable business for safeguarding its own highly sensitive commercial information), and shall not disclose such Confidential Information, in whole or in part, except to those of its directors, consultants, officers, and employees, Agents, consultants, advisors, and in the case of Seller, debt or equity finance parties providing or potentially providing financing to Seller or its Affiliates (i) who need to know such Confidential Information for the purpose of this Agreement or for potentially entering into this Agreement, (ii) who have been informed of the confidential nature of such information, and (iii) who are obligated to keep such information in confidence pursuant to terms of this Agreement.

15.2 In addition to the specific obligations otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the receiving Party shall:

a) safeguard and hold in confidence all such Confidential Information using efforts commensurate with those it employs for the protection of corresponding sensitive information of its own, which in any event shall not be a lesser standard than the type of efforts that would be taken by a reasonable business for the protection of its own highly sensitive information and trade secrets; and

b) not use such Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, for any purposes other than the performance of this Agreement and not use such Confidential Information for the receiving Party’s own benefit or for any purpose detrimental to the interests of the disclosing Party.

15.3 However:

a) Each Party is allowed to disclose Confidential Information to any governmental or supranational authority to the extent disclosure is legally compulsory, provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by law, such Party shall inform the disclosing Party of such governmental request for information with advance written notice; and

b) The Buyer is allowed to disclose information of any findings resulting from any audit, investigation or inspection conducted under this Agreement to members and directors of IATA, IFQP, JIG and other fuel quality organizations the Buyer may be a member of, where such findings relate to a safety of flight issue for the Buyer and/or other aircraft operators.

15.4 In the event of a contested disclosure, the burden of demonstrating that the information in issue was not confidential shall be borne by the Party having received the same.

Fuel Supply Agreement Annex I | Page 12

Confidential
