To the extent such Motor Fuel is sold under branded trademarks, trade names, and trade dress owned by Company or branded trademarks, trade names and trade dress for which Company has the license to use and sublicense (the “Authorized Marks”), such Motor Fuel shall be deemed “Branded Motor Fuel” for purposes of this Agreement. Distributor's purchase and resale of Motor Fuel to Distributor's Locations (as defined below) consistent with Company's standards and image requirements and Authorized Marks, is the essence of this Agreement. In addition, Company may also make available to Distributor Company's branded motor oils, automotive lubricants and other products for resale by Distributor to its customers. For purposes of this Agreement, any supplier of Branded Motor Fuels, other than Company, shall be a “Branded Supplier.”
(b)
Each Distributor motor fuel station added or substituted as a location or a substituted location in accordance with this Agreement, or as otherwise mutually agreed to be added as a location by Company and Distributor, shall be hereinafter referred to individually as a “Location” and collectively as the “Locations.” The initial list of Locations subject to this Agreement is set forth on Schedule 1.1 hereto.
(c)
All Locations listed on Schedule 1.1 hereto on the date of this Agreement shall be “Base Locations.” Any Location added to Schedule 1.1 in substitution of a Base Location being removed from this Agreement shall be a “Substitute Location” and shall be considered as a Base Location upon being added to Schedule 1.1. Each Location is located in one of specific geographic regions as indicated on Schedule 1.1.
(d)
Distributor is required to add Locations anticipated to contribute [***] gallons of Motor Fuel for the 2018 Contract Year, [***] additional gallons of Motor Fuel for the 2019 Contract Year, [***] additional gallons of Motor Fuel for the 2020 Contract Year and [***] additional gallons of Motor Fuel for the 2021 Contract Year. Each such Location added in fulfillment of such obligation shall be deemed a “Growth Location” and shall not be considered a “Base Location.”
(e)
Schedule 1.1 shall also list the primary and secondary terminals (each, a “Terminal”) from which Motor Fuel will be supplied to a particular Location.

1.2
TERM:
The initial term of this Agreement shall be for a period of fifteen (15) contract years commencing April 1, 2018 (the “Effective Date”), and ending March 31, 2033 (the “Term”). “Contract Year” shall mean the period beginning on April 1 of each year and ending on March 31 of the following year during the Term. Contract Years shall be designated by the calendar in which the Contract Year commences; for example, the Contract Year commencing on April 1, 2018, shall be the 2018 Contract Year. During the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Date, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply, except for the provisions of Sections 1.4(c), 1.5(b), 1.5(c), 1.6(b), 1.7 and 1.8.






1.3
BRAND REQUIREMENTS:
(a)
Distributor acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to certain Locations covered by this Agreement, Company has obligations to its suppliers that require such Locations to sell specific Branded Motor Fuels. Distributor agrees to continue to maintain the brands at Base Locations selling Branded Motor Fuels as shown on Schedule 1.1 through the Term, subject to Distributor’s right to substitute and remove Locations from this Agreement as provided herein. Distributor further acknowledges that any change of the brand of such Location or the removal of such Location from this Agreement (unless approved by Company or resulting from Company's breach of this Agreement) may cause Company to become obligated to pay reimbursement, damages or penalties to its suppliers with respect to such debranded or removed Location. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Branded Motor Fuel sold at any Location may not be changed during the Term without the mutual agreement of Company and Distributor, subject to removal and substitution of Locations from this Agreement as provided herein. The parties also acknowledge and agree that during the Term Company will not increase its capital reimbursement obligations to Branded Suppliers without the approval of Distributor, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
(b)
Distributor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Company from and against, for and in respect of the full amounts of, and shall pay and reimburse Company for, any and all losses, damages, claims, and penalties incurred or required to be paid, to the extent based upon, arising out of or resulting from Distributor debranding a Location prior to the expiration of the term of the applicable branding commitment for such Location to the extent such branding commitment is effective and all work has been completed prior to the closing (the “Closing”) under the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement dated January 23, 2018, by and among Distributor and certain affiliates of Company (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), unless such debranding is in accordance with Distributor’s right to remove Locations in accordance with Section 1.5(c) hereof.

1.4
PRICES:
(a)
During the Term, the prices to be paid by Distributor for Motor Fuel purchased hereunder shall be determined in accordance with the applicable formula price that is specified in Schedule 1.4 hereto for each type and grade of Motor Fuel and delivery point (each, a "Formula Price"). The Formula Price for each gallon of Motor Fuel purchased hereunder shall be equal to the Base Cost plus the Supply Margin for the applicable geographic region plus the Transportation Freight Charge (to the extent freight is supplied by Company or its affiliates). A “Supply Margin” shall be as shown in Section 1.4(b) below for a particular geographic region, except that the Supply Margin for all Growth Locations shall be [***] per gallon without regard for a Growth Location’s particular geographic region. The “Transportation Freight Charge” shall be [***]. Distributor shall be responsible for all taxes and surcharges on the Motor Fuel purchased pursuant to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Formula Price and Transportation Freight Charge shall not include any fees, mark-up, expense or other costs associated with Company’s or its affiliates’ breach of any agreement, including the Transportation Agreement (defined below), or surcharges, expenses or other cost imposed on Company or its affiliates due to its failure to meet any of its contractual obligations. The Formula Price and Transportation Freight Charges will not reflect other credits to the account of Distributor, including, without limitation, mystery shop, image capital and other incentives typically passed through to distributors, which such incentives shall be paid separately to Distributor.
(b)
The “Base Cost” shall be modeled on [***], and for unbranded bulk supplied Motor Fuel supplied to any Location, the Base Cost shall include the relevant index plus [***] minus the Distributor RINS Share set forth in the table below for the applicable Region, multiplied by the corresponding RINS Value (the “Applicable RINS Shares). For unbranded Motor Fuel supplied at the terminal rack to any Location, the Base Cost shall include the relevant index plus [***] minus the Applicable RINS Share. For all Branded Motor Fuel supplied at the terminal rack, the Base Cost shall include the relevant index plus [***] minus [***]% of the portion of the daily assessed value for the RINS (the “RINS Value”)[***]. For the avoidance of doubt, Sunoco, Stripes and 7-Eleven “branded” fuels are all deemed to be unbranded for purposes of this Section 1.4. The “Index” basis shall be the [***], mutually agreed upon by Company and Distributor) quote for the specific regions as shown below, and the applicable Supply Margin shall be the amount per gallon as shown below:

(d)
Company and Distributor acknowledge and agree that the Formula Price and the components thereof may need to be adjusted to meet Distributor’s Expected Annual Supply Margin and Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin (as those terms are defined in Section 1.5 below) commitments to Company when changes in regulatory environment (e.g., RINS) or other market conditions impact the Expected Annual Supply Margin and Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin in either direction. Company will provide monthly updates to Formula Price, as necessary.
(e)
Sunoco Retail LLC, an affiliate of Company will initially provide dispatch and delivery of Motor Fuels to all Locations pursuant to a Transportation Agreement dated as of the date of this Agreement and entered into between Distributor and Sunoco Retail LLC, provided that Distributor, by providing at least [***] days' notice to Sunoco Retail LLC (or such longer notice to align with requirements under third-party carrier agreements), may assume the obligation to take delivery of Motor Fuels from Company's designated delivery points for any one or more geographic regions; provided that any such transportation by Distributor or its carriers shall comply with and be subject to all other provisions of this Agreement.
(f)
Subject to Section 2.3, payments by Distributor to Company will be made on a net [***] day basis, payable by electronic funds transfer ("EFT"), and the parties shall cooperate in establishing the necessary EFT channel of payment.

1.5
MOTOR FUEL VOLUMES:
(a)
There will be no volume requirements during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Date.
(b)
Distributor shall purchase the sufficient volumes of Motor Fuel from Company pursuant to this Agreement as shall be necessary to produce the Expected Annual Supply Margin in each Contract Year as set forth in Section 1.6 below and as adjusted pursuant





to Section 1.7. “Expected Annual Supply Margin” has been calculated by multiplying anticipated geographic region volume purchases by Distributor for Base Locations by the Market Supply Margin for the applicable geographic regions and adding to that the Distributor’s volume commitments for Growth Locations multiplied by [***]. The annual contract volume that Distributor is obligated to purchase during any Contract Year of this Agreement shall be subject to change as agreed to by the parties.
(c)
Removal of Location Annual Supply Margin.
[***]
(d)
To the extent that any Base Location is not fully operational as of the Effective Date, whether due to construction, repairs or otherwise, the Location Annual Supply Margin for such Base Location shall be reduced pro rata for the amount of time between the Effective Date and the date such Location is fully operational, and the Expected Annual Supply Margin shall be reduced accordingly until such time as the Base Location is fully operational.

1.6
EXPECTED ANNUAL SUPPLY MARGIN
(a)
There will be no Expected Annual Supply Margin requirements during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Date.
(b)
Company and Distributor acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is a “take or pay” agreement, and that the intent of the pricing structure described in this Agreement is to ensure that Company realizes the Expected Annual Supply Margin during each Contract Year, as adjusted pursuant to Section 1.5(c), Section 1.7 and Section 1.9. During the initial Contract Year hereof, the Expected Annual Supply Margin shall be [***] for Base Locations and [***] for Growth Locations. In the second Contract Year hereof, [***] for Base Locations and [***] for Growth Locations. In the third Contract Year hereof, [***] for Base Locations and [***] for Growth Locations. For each Contract Year thereafter, [***] for Base Locations and [***] for Growth Locations. During the full Term of this Agreement, the aggregate Expected Annual Supply Margin for Base Locations and Growth Locations is [***] (the “Aggregate Expected Supply Margin”). The above Expected Annual Supply Margins are all subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 1.5(c), Section 1.7 and Section 1.9.

1.7
SHORTFALLS:
(a)
To the extent that Distributor fails to purchase sufficient Motor Fuel from Company to provide to Company at least [***]% of the Expected Annual Supply Margin for a Contract Year, (i) Distributor will be required to pay to Company an amount of cash which, when added to the Annual Supply Margin actually attained by Company in such Contract Year, would equal the Guaranteed Minimum Payment for such Contract Year (such payment, a “Make-Up Payment”) and (ii) any Shortfall (defined below) will be added to Expected Annual Supply Margin for the following Contract Year to create an Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin for the following Contract Year. The “Guaranteed Minimum Payment” for any Contract Year shall be an amount equal to [***]% of the Expected Annual Supply Margin for such Contract Year plus any Shortfall of Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin from the previous Contract Year. The “Annual Supply Margin” attained by Company for any Contract Year shall be the amount calculated by multiplying the number of gallons of Motor Fuel (per type and grade) purchased by Distributor in a Contract Year by the applicable supply margin cents-per-gallon amount paid to Company for each such gallon of purchased Motor Fuel in such Contract Year. The difference between (A) the Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin for a Contract Year and (B) the sum of the amounts received by Company from the actual Annual Supply Margin for such Contract Year, plus any Make-Up Payment for such Contract Year shall be a “Shortfall.” Make-Up Payments will be paid no later than sixty (60) days following the end of a Contract Year. At the end of the Term, all Shortfall from the current Contract Year shall be required to be paid at such time, so that Company shall have received at least the Aggregate Expected Supply Margin by such date.
(b)
As an example, if, in the initial Contract Year of the Term, the total Expected Annual Supply Margin is $109,254,266, the Guaranteed Minimum Payment for the initial Contract Year would be $[***]. If the Annual Supply Margin attained by Company for the initial Contract Year is $105,000,000, Distributor would be required to pay to Company a Make-Up Payment of $[***]. After giving effect to the Make-Up Payment, the Shortfall for the initial Contract Year would be $[***]. This Shortfall would be carried forward to increase the succeeding year’s Guaranteed Minimum Payment and Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin.
For the second Contract Year, the total Expected Annual Supply Margin is $[***] and the Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin is $[***]. The Guaranteed Minimum Payment for the second Contract Year would be $[***] plus the $[***] Shortfall from the previous year). If the Annual Supply Margin attained by Company for the second Contract Year is $[***], Distributor would be required to pay to Company a Make-Up Payment of $[***]. After giving effect to the Make-Up Payment, the Shortfall for the second Contract Year would be $[***]. This Shortfall will be carried forward to increase the succeeding year’s Guaranteed Minimum Payment and Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin.





If, on the other hand, Company’s Annual Supply Margin was $[***] in the initial Contract Year, and thus exceeded the Guaranteed Minimum Payment, no Make-Up Payment would be required, and the Shortfall in that case of $[***] would be added to the Guaranteed Minimum Payment for the second Contract Year and used to calculate the Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin.

1.8
OVERLIFTING AND PRICE ADJUSTMENTS:
(a)
To the extent that Distributor purchases Motor Fuel from Company in any Contract Year sufficient to provide to Company more than 100% of the Expected Annual Supply Margin for such Contract Year (as adjusted for any Shortfall from the previous Contract Years pursuant to Section 1.7), Company will rebate to Distributor an amount determined by calculating the difference between the actual Annual Supply Margin attained for such Contract Year and the Annual Supply Margin that would have been attained if each gallon of Motor Fuel purchased after 100% of the Expected Annual Supply Margin had been attained in a Contract Year had a Supply Margin of [***] per gallon rather than the supply margin for the applicable geographic region for such purchased gallon. Such rebates will be paid no later than sixty (60) days following the end of a Contract Year, and may be paid by offsetting rebate amounts against amounts owed by Distributor to Company under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company agrees that, to the extent 100% of the Expected Annual Supply Margin has been attained in a Contract Year, it will use commercially reasonable efforts to adjust current invoices and bills of lading to Distributor at such time, so that the effective Supply Margin charged going forward per gallon would be [***] per gallon rather than the Supply Margin for the Base Locations in an applicable geographic region for such purchased gallon through the end of the Contract Year.
(b)
Company will provide to Distributor a quarterly certification of Motor Fuel volumes purchased and progress toward Expected Annual Supply Margin and Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin no later than thirty (30) days following the end of each quarter. Within thirty (30) days of the end of each year, Company will provide to Distributor a certification of Adjusted Expected Supply Margin for the then current year. The quarterly and annual certifications shall be subject to review pursuant to Section 1.13.

1.9
SUBSTITUTION OF LOCATIONS; GROWTH LOCATIONS:
(a)
Except as otherwise provide in, and in addition to the removal rights contained in, Section 1.5(c), Distributor, upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to Company, shall have the right to remove from this Agreement, in its sole discretion, any one or more Locations then covered under this Agreement, due to: (i) a sale of the Location to an unrelated third party; (ii) the expiration or termination of a lease with an unrelated third party, except for Locations shown on Schedule 1.1 hereto that that were not leased from a third party prior to the Effective Date, and/or (iii) a permanent removal of the Location from use as a retail gasoline facility. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.5(c), the removal of a Location shall not affect the Expected Annual Supply Margin due to Company. Distributor acknowledges its obligations pursuant to Section 1.3(b) to the extent the removal of a Location, other than in accordance with Section 1.5(c), causes Company to become obligated to pay reimbursement, damages or penalties to its suppliers with respect to such removed Location.
(b)
Except as provided in Section 1.5(c), upon the removal of a Base Location from this Agreement, Distributor shall be obligated to promptly replace the removed Base Location with a substituted Location (a “Substituted Location”) that meets with Company’s approval, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Company will consider the following criteria (among other matters): (i) the brand of the Substituted Location; (ii) the anticipated Annual Supply Margin contribution of the Substituted Location; (iii) the geographic region and primary delivery point of the Substituted Location; (iv) the existing brand image of the Substituted Location; and (v) whether the Substituted Location will create a potential conflict with any other existing Company supplied branded retail gasoline station. Any Substituted Location will have the Supply Margin of its applicable geographic region.
(c)
If Distributor sells a Base Location that is subject to Company’s branded supply obligations to an unrelated third party free of such brand supply obligations, Distributor shall indemnify Company as required by Section 1.3(b), and the Location Annual Supply Margin obligation attributable to such sold Base Location shall not be removed from the Expected Annual Supply Margin. If Distributor sells a Base Location to an unrelated third party subject to Company’s branded supply obligations, Distributor’s obligations under Section 1.3(a) shall continue to apply, and the Location Annual Supply Margin obligation attributable of such sold Base Location shall not be removed from the Expected Annual Supply Margin; however, any supply margin earned by Company with respect to such sold Base Location following such sale shall be credited toward the Distributor’s Expected Annual Supply Margin obligation.
(d)
Distributor upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Company, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to add any one or more new Growth Locations, subject to the consent of Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any new Growth Location will have a Supply Margin of [***] per gallon. If Company rejects the addition of a Growth Location for any reason other than that (i) such Location will create a potential conflict with any other existing Company supplied retail gasoline station or (ii) Company is unable to supply such proposed Growth Locations on a commercially reasonable basis,





then Expected Annual Supply Margin and Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin shall be reduced by the anticipated Location Annual Supply Margin proposed for such rejected Growth Location for the duration of the term of this Agreement effective as of the thirtieth (30th) day after such notice.
(e)
The parties acknowledge and agree that Distributor intends to remove from this Agreement the Locations identified as belonging to the [***]geographic region. At the time of such removal, Distributor shall assume any reimbursement or other obligations relating to unamortized image or incentive monies and any liquidated damages or other monetary obligations that may arise with respect to branding commitments applicable to the [***] Locations in [***] geographic region. Distributor shall not assume, and Company will remain liable for, any such obligations to [***] in excess of $[***], the estimated amount of such damages as of December 20, 2017. Company will retain any obligations relating to any reimbursement or other obligations relating to unamortized image or incentive monies and any liquidated damages or other monetary obligations that may arise with respect to branding commitments applicable to the [***] Locations in the [***] geographic region. At the time of such removal, such Locations shall no longer be deemed “Locations” hereunder.
(f)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Distributor will be permitted to sell the Base Location located at [***] (the “[***] Site”). In the event of such sale, the Supply Margin of the [***]Site will be removed from the Expected Annual Supply Margin due to Company, unless such sale occurs before [***], in which case the Supply Margin attributable to the [***]Site will remain in Expected Annual Supply Margin until and be removed from Expected Annual Supply Margin as of, October 1, 2025, although the parties may agree to allocate the Expected Annual Supply Margin for the [***]Site over a longer period.
(g)
Upon the removal, substitution or addition of any Locations in accordance herewith, the applicable Schedules hereto shall be adjusted accordingly.

1.10
STATE OF EMERGENCY:
During any State of Emergency declared by the President of the United States or any similar declaration made by any federal, state or local governmental authority, Company may elect, with Distributor’s consent, which is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to suspend on a temporary basis the application of pricing terms of this Agreement in the affected area and to charge instead the then published Branded Motor Fuel rack price in effect at the time and place of delivery. The duration of time this suspension of the Formula Price construct remains in effect shall be determined by Company, but in no case will exceed a period of six (6) months. Company shall not treat Distributor materially different than other customers of Company affected by the State of Emergency

1.11
RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER:
Distributor and Company acknowledge that Distributor intends to add sites to its base during the term of this Agreement. To the extent permitted by Distributor’s contractual obligations, whether existing or arising from future acquisitions during the first two years of the term of this Agreement, Distributor will endeavor to notify Company of the addition of sites and grant Company the right to propose volumes and pricing for retail fuel supply to such new sites, but not on a "take or pay" basis. Distributor will consider such proposals, but will not be obligated to accept such proposals if Distributor determines, in its good faith business judgment, that the proposal is not in Distributor's best interest.

1.12
CREDIT AND DEBIT CARD REQUIREMENTS:
Company shall make available to Distributor, and Distributor shall use Company's credit and debit card program consistent with all requirements of this Agreement. All fees associated with Company’s credit and debit card program, shall be on terms described in Part 3. In addition, Distributor is required to participate in Company's Electronic Point of Sale ("EPOS") program as described in PART 3.
[***]

1.13
QUARTERLY REVIEWS:
Company and Distributor shall hold quarterly meetings to review dealings pursuant to this Agreement. The parties shall attempt to settle any disputes concerning costs, pricing, volumes, Expected Annual Supply Margin, Adjusted Expected Annual Supply Margin, Shortfalls and Make-Up Payments using commercially reasonable efforts. Other matters of review shall be supply cost, allocation issues, the addition and removal of Locations, Supply Margins and Growth Locations, quarterly estimated payments, RINS share, interchange fees, terminal charges, fuel branding and all applicable incentives.






1.14
CERTAIN OFFSET RIGHTS:
Pursuant to a guarantee dated as of the date of this Agreement (the “Guarantee”), Company is a co-guarantor of the obligations of its affiliates that are sellers (the “Affiliated Sellers”) under the Asset Purchase Agreement. In the event of a Claim Subject to Escrow, the Affiliated Sellers are obligated to deposit into the Indemnity Escrow Account the amounts so required by Section 8.15 of the Asset Purchase Agreement. To the extent such obligations are unsatisfied for one Business Day, Company shall deposit with the Escrow Agent the amounts required to be deposited by Affiliated Sellers pursuant to Section 8.15(b) of the Asset Purchase Agreement.
Additionally, for any indemnification claim made by a Buyer Indemnified Party under the Asset Purchase Agreement, in the event (a) of any decision, judgment, arbitration award or other award rendered by a Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction (which decision, judgment, arbitration award or other award need not be final and non-appealable) in respect of such indemnification claim, (b) of a settlement, adjustment or compromise in respect of such indemnification claim agreed to by the parties to the Asset Purchase Agreement (or, in respect of a third party claim for which Affiliated Sellers acknowledge their indemnification obligations, a settlement made in accordance with the parameters set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement), or (c) the Buyers and Affiliated Sellers arrive at a mutually binding agreement in respect of such indemnification claim, Affiliated Sellers shall be obligated to pay such amounts to Distributor and the other Buyers. If this payment obligation is not satisfied, Distributor shall have the right to deliver to Company a demand pursuant to the Guarantee for such amounts. If this demand is not satisfied after one Business day, Distributor shall have the right to give a further notice to Company of its election to off-set all Losses due, owing and unpaid by Affiliated Sellers in respect of such indemnification claim against amounts owed by Distributor to Company under this Agreement. If Distributor so elects to off-set such Losses, Company shall, within three Business Days following receipt of such off-set notice, refund the full amount of such Losses to Buyers from funds paid to Company under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent there are funds in the Indemnity Escrow Account in respect of such indemnification claim, Buyers shall first satisfy Losses in respect of such claim with such funds in the Indemnity Escrow Account prior to seeking to off-set remaining Losses against amounts owed to Company under this Agreement in accordance with the above.
Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

Distributor acknowledges and agrees that the primary and secondary terminals or supply points shown for a Location on Schedule 1.1 shall not be changed without Company’s prior consent, and the applicable Market Supply Margins and site specific charges for a Location shall apply with respect to such Location unless Company has expressly agreed otherwise in writing.

2.3
TERMS AND METHODS OF PAYMENT
(a)
Unless Company has established other terms and methods of payment, Distributor will pay Company for all Motor Fuel when purchased at delivery points, on [***] day credit terms. Upon a material degradation in Distributor’s credit or recurring late payments by Distributor, Company may, upon written notice to Distributor, make reasonable adjustments to such three day credit





terms in accordance with such terms provided to Distributor in writing; provided, however, that Company must first provide Distributor with a default notice specifying in reasonable detail the nature of such degradation or recurring failure and provide Distributor with a period of ten (10) days after receipt of such written notice to cure such degradation.
(b)
All terms and methods of payment shall be deemed a part of this Agreement. If Distributor does not comply with credit terms or methods of payment, upon three (3) days prior written notice to Distributor, Company may suspend availability of Motor Fuel and other products at delivery points to Distributor without having liability to Distributor, and without releasing Distributor hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such prior written notice shall be required by Company if Distributor fails to pay amounts due to Company hereunder as and when due. The right to change terms and methods of payment and suspend availability of Motor Fuel and other products at delivery point to Distributor shall be in addition to and not in substitution for, other rights and remedies available to Company.
(c)
Distributor hereby authorizes Company as evidenced by Distributor's signature on Company's “EFT/DTC Authorization Form" or other Company provided Electronic Funds Transfer Authorization Forms, to draw product purchases and other such charges as mutually agreed upon, directly from Distributor's designated bank account consistent with Company's credit guidelines. If insufficient funds are in Distributor's designated bank account to pay in full sums owed by Distributor to Company upon draft presentation during the term of this Agreement, Company reserves the right to require Distributor to make such payments (product and others) in full on the required payment date by wire transfer or by such other methods as Company in its sole discretion requires.
(d)
Company will make diligent efforts to invoice accurately, to provide an account statement, and to correct errors when discovered. In the event an over-billing occurs, Company will promptly, within ten (10) days, barring third party delays, credit Distributor's account and if an under-billing occurs, Distributor shall pay Company additional amounts that are due within ten (10) days of receipt of corrected invoices or statements of account or by such other date as mutually agreed upon by Company and Distributor. Distributor has sole responsibility to insure proper use of terminal product authorization numbers, loading cards, or other customer specific terminal access numbers issued to Distributor, by Distributor's drivers or designated common carriers. In the event improper use of terminal access numbers cause an incorrect billing, Distributor may be charged a reasonable processing fee as established by Company from time to time.
(e)
All unpaid accounts owing to Company by Distributor shall bear interest from the due date until paid, at rates established by Company or by law. Company's right to collect a finance charge does not operate as a waiver against Company's right of termination herein for Distributor's failure to pay sums owed when due. Checks or drafts returned unpaid by Distributor's bank for any reason shall be assessed, and Distributor shall pay a returned check charge based upon a percentage of the amount or face value of the check or draft as such percentage may be established by Company from time to time, not to exceed maximum fees as established by applicable state usury laws. Company and Distributor agree that such percentage will be [***]% as of the date of this Agreement, but may be changed at the discretion of Company pursuant to the foregoing. All payments shall be made by Distributor without offset or counterclaim. In the event suit is brought to collect unpaid accounts or other sums owed to Company by Distributor, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorney's fees and costs of litigation in full from the other party, which fees and costs shall be added to or deducted from accounts owed by Distributor.
(f)
Distributor shall provide Company its most recent annual audited financial statements, accompanying footnotes and other information relative to Distributor's credit standing, as may be reasonably requested in writing by Company. Distributor agrees to provide Company with such financial statements within thirty (30) days after receipt of Company's request. Distributor acknowledges and agrees that Company may rely upon such financial statements in extending credit to Distributor. If Company reasonably determines that Distributor’s credit has suffered a material degradation, Company may require Distributor to provide an Irrevocable Letter of Credit in an amount, form and from a bank reasonably acceptable to Company or an alternate form of security in an amount and form reasonably satisfactory to Company. Any material breach by Distributor of the obligation to provide such financial statements or letter of credit or security as set forth above, will be considered noncompliance with a material provision of this Agreement and may also result, at Company's option, in Distributor being placed on wire-in-advance terms.

2.4
RIGHT OF OFFSET: SECURITY INTEREST
(a)
Company shall have the right to offset or apply sums held by Company under this Agreement and owing to Distributor if Distributor fails to pay any and all sums not disputed in good faith and owed to Company or Sunoco Retail LLC when due under this Agreement.

To maintain and further promote this image, Distributor shall professionally conduct its business in a manner at least consistent with minimum standards applicable to the Authorized Marks so as to reflect favorably and promote public acceptance of the Authorized Marks, and Company’s credit and debit card program as a specific condition of this Agreement. Except as has been disclosed to Distributor prior to the date hereof, all branded Locations on Schedule 1.1 shall be deemed to have met the applicable brand image requirements during the initial Contract Year of the Term.
To the extent image capital is related to refresh Locations or if related to Distributor’s rebranding one of Distributor’s legacy sites in order to meet supply volume obligations, Distributor shall pay for such reimaging. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the 2018 Contract year, Company shall be responsible for costs relating to imaging upgrades to the extent required by Company’s Branded Suppliers during such period.
To the extent image capital is needed for sites providing growth volume, Distributor will provide such image capital. To the extent image capital is related to new sites (excluding growth requirement sites), Company shall provide investment capital in amounts up to what is typically provided to distributors in the applicable market.
