For purposes of determining the price of High Pressure Steam hereunder, NGP means the price of natural gas measured at a per mmbtu rate based on the price for natural gas actually paid by Refinery Company for the month preceding the sale. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Refinery Company shall have no obligation to pay for High Pressure Steam during periods when Refinery Company is flaring fuel gas. | |
B-3
- Flow measurement | All High Pressure Steam flows shall be measured by a standard sharp edge orifice plate and differential pressure transmitter located at the Fertilizer Plant. The measured flow shall be totalized by the Fertilizer Plant's Honeywell process control computer (TDC 3000) or any replacement computer. All transmitter signals and computer calculations are available to the Refinery through the existing communications bus for verification. Calibration of the transmitter shall be done at least annually and may be done more frequently at Refinery Company's request. |

B-4
- Tail Gas Price | VOLTG x LHVTG x PRICENG x (HHVNG / LHVNG) For purposes of the foregoing formula: VOLTG = the volume of the Tail Gas stream in scf for the month LHVTG = the average LHV of the weekly samples of the Tail Gas stream analyzed for the previous month; the Refinery Company and the Fertilizer Plant will mutually agree on the Btu Content for the first month of operation following the Commencement Date PRICENG = the price of natural gas measured at a per mmbtu rate (and at the HHV) based on the price for natural gas actually paid by Refinery Company for the month preceding the sale HHVNG = the HHV of natural gas or 1012 Btu/scf LHVNG = the LHV of natural gas or 911 Btu/scf |
- Capital Cost | The "Capital Cost" is the aggregate capital expenditures incurred by Refinery Company to procure, construct and install the piping, pipe supports, control valve station, flow meter and associated instrumentation needed to connect the PSA at the Fertilizer Plant to the #1 Boiler at the Refinery, for purposes of the delivery of Tail Gas. |
- Capital Recovery Fee | The "Capital Recovery Fee" is the monthly amount needed for Refinery Company to recover the Capital Cost using straight-line depreciation over a three-year period at an interest rate of 12% per annum. |
- Return Fee | The monthly amount needed to net to the Refinery Company a 15% per annum return on their investment of the Capital Cost. |
- Commencement Date | The "Commencement Date" will be the date upon which the delivery of Tail Gas to the Refinery begins. |
- Net Price | Upon the Commencement Date, the net price for the Tail Gas for the first three years will be computed by taking the Tail Gas Price minus the Capital Recovery Fee. Following the initial three-year period and continuing for one year thereafter, the net price for the Tail Gas will be computed by taking the Tail Gas Price minus the Return Fee. Following the initial four-year period, the net price for Tail Gas will be the Tail Gas Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Refinery Company shall have no obligation to pay for Tail Gas during periods when Refinery Company is flaring fuel gas. Refinery Company will pay Fertilizer Company on a monthly basis for all Tail Gas purchased. |
