RECITALS:

WHEREAS, the Issuers desire to sell, and the Purchasers desire to buy, an aggregate principal amount of $80,000,000 of the Issuers’ 7.75% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “Notes”), to be issued in accordance with the terms and conditions of an indenture to be entered into on the date hereof among the Issuers, the Guarantors (as defined below) and the Purchasers (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”); and

WHEREAS, the Issuers’ obligations under the Notes, including the due and punctual payment of interest on the Notes, will be irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed by each of the guarantors listed in Schedule 1 (the “Guarantors”) and the other Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture) from time to time pursuant to the Guarantee.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the respective representations, warranties, covenants and conditions contained in this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

AGREEMENT:

SECTION 1.                            PURCHASE AND SALE OF NOTES.

1.1                               Sale and Issuance of Notes.  The aggregate principal amount of Notes to be sold under this Agreement (the “Aggregate Principal Amount”) shall equal $80,000,000.    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Purchaser agrees to purchase at the Closing, and the Issuers agree to sell and issue such Purchaser at the Closing, an aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to its Proportional Share of the Aggregate Principal Amount, for a purchase price equal to the principal amount of Notes purchased by such Purchaser multiplied by such Purchaser’s Proportional Share.  The aggregate purchase price for the Notes payable by the Purchasers is referred to as the “Purchase Price.”  For the avoidance of doubt, each Purchaser’s obligation to purchase the Notes and any other obligations hereunder are several and not joint and no failure by one Purchaser to purchase its Proportional Share of the Notes will result in the obligation of the other to purchase such Notes.

1.2                               Closing.  The consummation of the purchase and sale of the Notes as contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) will take place on the Closing Date.

1.3                               Delivery.  At the Closing, the Issuers shall deliver to each Purchaser the Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser in the form of a single Note (or such greater number of

If at the Closing the Issuers shall fail to tender such Notes to any of the Purchasers as provided above, or any of the other conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to each Purchaser’s satisfaction, any of the Purchasers shall, at its election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights such Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.

6.2                               Other Taxes.  Without limiting or duplicating the provisions of Section 6.1, the Issuers shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Laws.

6.3                               Indemnification.  The Issuers shall jointly and severally indemnify each Holder, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Holder, on or with respect to any payment by or on account

6.4                               Evidence of Payment.  Upon request by the Holders after any payment of Taxes by the Issuers to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 6, the Issuers shall deliver to the Holder the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Applicable Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Holders.

6.5                               Forms.  A Holder shall, at the time it acquires the Notes and thereafter as reasonably requested by the Issuers, deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Issuers as will enable to the Issuers to determine whether or not such Holder is subject to backup withholding and information reporting.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall, at the time it acquires the Notes and thereafter as reasonably requested by the Issuers or upon the expiration, invalidity or obsolescence of any previously delivered form, furnish to the Issuers either:  (i) two (2) accurate and complete originals of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN and a certificate to the effect that the Holder is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not a “10-percent shareholder” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code and is not a controlled foreign corporation described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, or (ii) other applicable U.S. Internal Revenue Service forms to claim an exemption or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax.

6.6                               Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to Section 6 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 6.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 6.6 (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.6, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 6.6 the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position

13

than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This Section 6.6 shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

7.1                               Expense Reimbursement.  The Issuers shall pay all of each Purchaser’s fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses arising in connection with the purchase of the Notes and any due diligence investigation performed by each of the Purchasers and the reasonable fees and expenses of special counsel to the Purchasers and also of, without limitation, any local legal counsel as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with each Purchaser’s purchase of the Notes and the Note Documents, provided that the Issuers’ aggregate payment obligations in respect of fees and expenses of legal counsel of the Purchasers accrued on or prior to the Closing Date shall not exceed $150,000) arising in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration (including in connection with any exchange contemplated in Section 3.10 of the Indenture) of the Note Documents.

7.2                               Indemnification Generally.  The Issuers hereby indemnify and hold harmless all Indemnified Parties from and against all Liabilities.  In addition to the foregoing, the Issuers agree to reimburse each Indemnified Party for all legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or participating in any action or other proceeding relating to any Liabilities (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party to any such action or proceeding).  No Indemnified Party shall be liable to the Issuers or any other Person for damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through internet, electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent that such damages arise as a result of information distributed through the internet, electronic, telecommunications or other information transmissions systems by such Indemnified Party in a manner that is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment to have been grossly negligent or a result of the bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party (to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment).  No Indemnified Party shall be liable to the Issuers or any other Person for any determination made by it pursuant to this Section 7 in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Person (to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment).

7.3                               Contribution.  If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Issuers shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the

14

relative benefits received by the Issuers on the one hand and such Indemnified Party on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Issuers and such Indemnified Party, as well as any relevant equitable considerations.  The rights set forth in this Section 7.3 are in addition to any rights that the Indemnified Parties may have at common law or otherwise.

7.4                               Successors and Assigns.  The Issuers’ indemnity obligations under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which the Issuers may otherwise have and shall be binding upon any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Issuers.  This Section 7 is for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties, and no other Person may rely hereon.

7.5                               No Consequential Damages.  In no event shall the Issuers have any liability to any Indemnified Party for any consequential or punitive damages, except for any such consequential or punitive damages included in any third party claim in connection with which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification.

7.6                               Defense.  If any Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Section 7 with respect to any action or proceeding brought by a third party that is also brought against the Issuers, the Issuers shall be entitled to assume the defense of any such action or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party.  Upon assumption by the Issuers of the defense of any such action or proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in such action or proceeding and to retain its own counsel, but the Issuers shall not be liable for any legal expenses of other counsel subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof unless (a) the Issuers have agreed to pay such fees and expenses, (b) the Issuers shall have failed to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party in a timely manner or (c) the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there are actual or potential conflicting interests between the Issuers and the Indemnified Party, including situations in which there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Issuers.  The Issuers shall not consent to the terms of any compromise or settlement of any action defended by the Issuers in accordance with the foregoing without the prior consent of the Indemnified Party (other than any such compromise or settlement exclusively requiring payment of money by the Issuers).

7.7                               Survival.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Issuers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Issuers contained in this Section 7 shall survive the payment in full of all amounts due hereunder.

7.8                               Applicability.  This Section 7 shall not apply to Taxes.

SCHEDULE 2.14

ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE

In connection with the December 2012 acquisition of six New England gasoline stations from Mutual Oil Company, the Company assumed certain environmental liabilities, including certain ongoing remediation efforts. As a result, the Company recorded a total environmental liability of approximately $0.6 million which was recorded as a long-term liability at December 31, 2012.

In connection with the March 2012 acquisition of Alliance, the Company assumed Alliance’s environmental liabilities, including ongoing environmental remediation at certain of the retail stations owned by Alliance and future remediation activities required by applicable federal, state or local law or regulation. Remedial action plans are in place, as may be applicable with the state agencies regulating such ongoing remediation. Based on reports from environmental engineers, the Company’s estimated cost of the ongoing environmental remediation for which Alliance was responsible and future remediation activities required by applicable federal, state or local law or regulation is estimated to be approximately $16.1 million to be expended over an extended period of time. Certain environmental remediation obligations at the retail stations acquired by Alliance from ExxonMobil in 2011 are being funded by ExxonMobil, and therefore cost estimates for such obligations at these stations are not included in this estimate. As a result, the Company recorded, on an undiscounted basis, total environmental liabilities of approximately $16.1 million. At December 31, 2012, this liability had a remaining balance of approximately $15.0 million.

In connection with the September 2010 acquisition of the retail gasoline stations from ExxonMobil, the Company assumed certain environmental liabilities, including ongoing environmental remediation at and monitoring activities at certain of the acquired sites and future remediation activities required by applicable federal, state or local law or regulation. Remedial action plans are in place with the applicable state regulatory agencies for the majority of these locations, including plans for soil and groundwater treatment systems at eight sites. Based on consultations with environmental engineers, the Company’s estimated cost of the remediation is expected to be approximately $30.0 million to be expended over an extended period of time. As a result, the Company recorded, on an undiscounted basis, total environmental liabilities of approximately $30.0 million. At December 31, 2012, this liability had a remaining balance of approximately $26.6 million.

In connection with the June 2010 acquisition of three refined petroleum products terminals in Newburgh, New York, the Company assumed certain environmental liabilities, including certain ongoing remediation efforts. As a result, the Company recorded, on an undiscounted basis, a total environmental liability of approximately $1.5 million, which was recorded as a long-term liability at December 31, 2012.

In connection with the November 2007 acquisition of ExxonMobil’s Glenwood Landing and Inwood, New York terminals, the Company assumed certain environmental liabilities, including the remediation obligations under remedial action plans submitted by ExxonMobil to and approved by the New York Department of Environmental Conservation (“NYDEC”) with

Schedule 2.14-1

respect to both terminals. As a result, the Company recorded, on an undiscounted basis, total environmental liabilities of approximately $1.2 million. At December 31, 2012, this liability had a remaining balance of approximately $0.3 million.

In connection with the May 2007 acquisition of ExxonMobil’s Albany and Newburgh, New York and Burlington, Vermont terminals, the Company assumed certain environmental liabilities, including the remediation obligations under a proposed remedial action plan submitted by ExxonMobil to NYDEC with respect to the Albany, New York terminal. As a result, the Company recorded, on an undiscounted basis, total environmental liabilities of approximately $8.0 million. In June 2008, the Company submitted a remedial action work plan to NYDEC, implementing NYDEC’s conditional approval of the remedial action plan submitted by ExxonMobil. The Company responded to NYDEC’s requests for additional information and conducted pilot tests for the remediation outlined in the work plan. Based on the results of such pilot tests, the Company changed its estimate and reduced the environmental liability by $2.8 million during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2008. In July 2009, NYDEC approved the remedial action work plan, and the Company signed a Stipulation Agreement with NYDEC to govern implementation of the approved plan. The remedial action work has been implemented pursuant to the approved work plan, and the post-remediation stage of operation, monitoring and maintenance has commenced and is ongoing. As a result, the Company changed its estimate and reduced the environmental liability by $1.7 million during the second quarter ended June 30, 2011. At December 31, 2012, this liability had a remaining balance of approximately $0.1 million.

For additional information regarding the Company’s environmental liabilities, see Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2012.

Based on informal discussions with state officials, the Company believes that its Oregon subsidiary, Cascade Kelly Holdings LLC, may receive a Notice of Violation of its existing air permit from the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ). The ODEQ may also attempt to modify the existing air permit to limit the volume of crude oil throughput at the facility. To date, the Company has not received any orders or correspondence of any kind from ODEQ related to any violation or modification of its existing air permit. If and when any such order or notice is received, the Company will appeal such actions and the Company believes that it has meritorious defenses. The existing air permit, which covers both the production of ethanol and transhipping crude oil, will remain in effect pending any such appeal.

ODEQ has previously requested that the Company submit an application for a separate air permit to transship crude oil.  The Company submitted the requested permit application to ODEQ in August 2013. The Company anticipates that a separate air permit for crude oil will be issued in the second quarter 2014.  The Company believes that the issuance of a separate crude oil permit will resolve any operational issues raised by the potential ODEQ action.

On December 17, 2013, the Company received a request for information from ODEQ relating to Cascade Kelly’s crude oil transloading activities in connection with ODEQ’s review

Schedule 2.14-2

of Cascade Kelly’s compliance status with its current permit and Oregon environmental law. The Company is working to respond to ODEQ’s request in a timely manner.
