PRICE PROVISION

Shell Trading (US) Company reserves the right to modify the price of this contract following an increase or decrease based on transportation costs. Price adjustments will be made on the effective date of the change.

FIXED PRICE PROTECTION

If the parties enter into a Transaction with a Contract Price that is a fixed price, as opposed to a Contract Price that floats based on industry postings, reference publications, or other external market factors or indices, for a specified quantity of Crude Oil to be delivered at a specified Delivery Point for the relevant period, such Fixed Price shall not be subject to change and shall be deemed to be the first Crude Oil purchased during the applicable Month. If more than one Fixed Price for different quantities of Crude Oil has been established in a particular Month, then the first Crude Oil purchased during said Month shall be the first quantities for which a Fixed Price was established, followed by any additional quantities in the order they were established. If for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation, an event of Force Majeure or any other circumstance that would excuse a party's obligation to deliver or receive Crude Oil (other than a breach or default by either party under this Contract), Seller delivers, or Buyer takes, less than the full quantity of Crude Oil required to be delivered or taken at a Fixed Price during any Month (a "Monthly Deficiency"), then (1) in the case when Buyer takes less than said full quantity of Crude Oil, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to (a) such Monthly Deficiency (expressed in barrel's) multiplied by (b) the amount, if any, by which the Fixed Price exceeds the applicable Spot Price (as defined below) for such Month and (2) in the case when Seller delivers less than said full quantity of Crude Oil, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to (a) such Monthly Deficiency (expressed in barrel's) multiplied by (b) the amount, if any, by which the

2


 

applicable Spot Price for such Month exceeds the applicable Fixed Price. For purposes on this Section only, "Spot Price" means the price specified in [Platt's Market Report], as reported in the first publication for the Month in which such Monthly Deficiency occurred, as adjusted (up or down, as the case may be) by any incremental transportation costs or savings between the location of the applicable listing and the Delivery Point(s); provided that, if there is no single published price for such location, but there is a published range of prices, then the Spot Price shall be the simple average of the high and low prices. If the above publication ceases to be published during the term hereof, its successor publication shall be used.

TAX

The total purchase price paid to SELLER by BUYER for crude and/or condensate shall be calculated as set forth in the Agreement. If Buyer is the first purchaser of the crude and/or condensate, BUYER shall have the right to withhold from the total purchase price the amount of applicable production and/or severance taxes and BUYER shall remit to the appropriate taxing authorities said taxes as withheld from the payment. If the amount of production and/or severance taxes owed to the taxing authorities is greater than the amount withheld and remitted by BUYER, SELLER agrees to reimburse BUYER for any excess production and/or severance tax that is required to be remitted to the taxing authorities.

OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS

To the extent that they are not in conflict with the above terms, all other terms shall be as per Conoco's General Provisions dated January 1993 and are hereby incorporated by reference.

All the Sections in the General Provisions shall apply except insofar as any such Section is inconsistent with any of the specific terms herein. For the avoidance of doubt, any repetition herein of any Section or part of such Section of the General Provisions shall be for emphasis only and shall not by reason of such repetition exclude any other part of such Section or any other Section, or any part thereof, of the General Provisions.
