Agrium U.S. shall provide the Transitional Services in a manner consistent with Agrium U.S.’s internal practices prior to the Closing and otherwise in a manner intended to facilitate the transfer of responsibility over the marketing of Product produced at the Facility from Agrium U.S. to REMC as contemplated hereby. Nothing in this Section 5 shall require Agrium U.S. to perform, or cause any third party to perform, such Transitional Services in a manner that would constitute a violation of any law. REMC shall indemnify Agrium U.S. and its affiliates for, and hold Agrium U.S. and its affiliates harmless from, all Losses arising out of, resulting from or otherwise in respect of negligent actions or willful misconduct by REMC or its subsidiaries, agents, employees or affiliates with respect to the receipt of the Transitional Services or that otherwise damage Agrium U.S.’s property, facilities, equipment or other infrastructure used in the provision of such Transitional Services.

d. Except as provided in this Amendment, the terms and conditions of the terminal services to be provided by Agrium U.S. with respect to the Additional Storage Facility shall reflect the same terms and conditions currently in effect under Article III of the Distribution Agreement with respect to the NIOTA Facility, as applicable; provided, however, that such terms and conditions shall be adjusted pro rata to reflect 7,500 tons of ammonia storage capacity per year to be used in the Additional Storage Facility relative to the storage capacity per year as currently in effect under the Distribution Agreement with respect to the NIOTA Facility. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, with respect to storage at the Additional Storage Facility (including level of service, freight costs, failure to receive ammonia, risk of loss and access), all references to “NIOTA Facility” in Article III of the Distribution Agreement (e.g., Section 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9 of the Distribution Agreement) shall be deemed to refer to the Additional Storage Facility.

e. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6 to the contrary, the terminal services fees with respect to the Additional Storage Facility to be paid by REMC to Agrium U.S. shall be equal to (i) the direct on-site, full operating costs (whether fixed and/or variable) per tonne charged at the NIOTA facility (assuming the entire NIOTA facility is being utilized and determined in a manner consistent with the methodologies set forth in the Distribution Agreement, as amended hereby) multiplied by the number of tonnes utilized by REMC at the Additional Storage Facility plus (ii) a $12,500 per month fixed fee.

7. Future Agreements with respect to Ammonia Barges. To the extent REMC, during any period which is outside of the ammonia application season, determines that it needs to transport ammonia products from the Facility to either the NIOTA Facility or the Additional Storage Facility, Agrium U.S. agrees to enter into negotiations with REMC, in good faith, seeking to reach agreements (containing commercially reasonable terms and conditions) with respect to the usage by REMC of Agrium U.S.’s available and unused, if existing, ammonia barges capacity.
