(b) Track.

(i) The “Northyard Track” is the track that connects the mainline track (located outside Port Cargill) to Port Cargill at ▇▇▇▇ Avenue (including several staging tracks) and services all Port Tenants that utilize rail transportation. The Northyard Track is owned by CAH, which currently leases that track to the Union Pacific Railroad (the “UP”). Currently the Northyard Track is maintained and repaired by the UP in accordance with its lease with CAH. In the event that the lease expires or is terminated, then the Port Tenants will reimburse CAH for any expenses to repair and maintain the Northyard Track based upon the respective Port Tenants’ use of the Northyard Track.

(ii) The section of track beginning at the point at which the track crosses ▇▇▇▇ Avenue until the track enters the Holding Company Parcel (“Main Spur”) will be owned by Salt, but the maintenance and repair for the Main Spur will be shared equally between Holding Company and Salt, provided however that Holding Company will reimburse Salt for a portion of the expenses that Salt incurs to maintain, repair and replace the five (5) switches located along the Main Spur based upon its use of the Main Spur.

6. Permits. The parties agree to cooperate and work together to facilitate the modification of any permits that may need to be modified as a result of the separation of the Port Cargill facility.

The Holding Company and Salt will be responsible for any releases of materials from the sewer lines used exclusively by one party. In the portion of the sewer pipes that are shared, the party responsible for any release will be responsible for the costs of any environmental cleanup or other damage resulting therefrom. The Holding Company and Salt will equally share maintenance of the shared sewer pipes.

(b) Stormwater Permit. There is currently one permit for the CAH, Salt and Crop Nutrition operations and that permit is in the process of being split into one permit for the Cargill Parcel and one permit for the Holding Company Parcel.

(c) Air Permit. There is currently one permit for the Port Cargill facility and that permit is in the process of being split into one permit for the Cargill Parcel and one permit for the Holding Company Parcel.

7. Access for Repair & Maintenance. As a result of splitting the Port Cargill facility into two separate parcels, certain utilities and equipment that benefit one party will cross over the other party’s parcel (for example overhead electric lines or underground water pipes that benefit Holding Company will cross over or under the Cargill Parcel). From time to time, the party receiving the benefit of such utilities and equipment (the “Entering Party”) may need to access the property of the other party (the “Host Party”) in order to maintain, repair or replace such utilities or equipment located on Host Party’s property (the “Property”) (the “Work”).

(a) Grant of Non-Exclusive License. Host Party grants to Entering Party the limited right to enter the Property only to perform the Work.

(b) Wastes. Entering Party agrees that any samples, waste materials, soil cuttings, hazardous wastes, hazardous substances, pollutants, contaminants or free product (“Wastes”) which results from the Work will be the sole property of Entering Party. Entering Party will handle, store, treat, transport, and dispose of the Wastes in accordance with all applicable government requirements and at Entering Party’s expense. In no event will any Wastes be stored on Property for more than ten days, or treated or disposed of at the Property.

(c) Conduct of Work. Entering Party will conduct its activities in a manner that does not interfere with Host Party’s business activities at the Property and in a manner that minimizes disturbance to the existing condition of the Property. Any disturbance to the Property resulting from the Work will be repaired or corrected promptly. At its expense, Entering Party will restore the Property to its original condition and remove all equipment, tools or other property brought onto the site in relation to the Work immediately after the Work is completed.

(d) Access to Premises. Access will be limited to Host Party’s normal business hours at the Property during which a Host Party manager is present and will not interfere with Host Party’s operations at the Site. Entering Party will notify Host Party’s local manager prior to accessing the Property for the purposes stated herein. Although Host Party cannot generally prohibit Entering Party from conducting Work on the Property, it may object to certain aspects of the proposed Work (including the Work’s scope, timing, manner or duration) in which case Entering Party and Host Party will work in good faith to reach a mutually acceptable resolution.

(e) Compliance with Laws. Entering Party agrees that it, and its representatives, employees, agents, licensees, invitees, and contractors will present proper credentials when seeking access to the Property; will comply with all applicable safety and environmental laws and regulations, including Host Party’s safety requirements, when on or about the Property; and as a condition of access to the Property will participate in Host Party’s

review of its safety requirements. Entering Party further agrees that Host Party may, at the sole cost and risk of Entering Party, stop work for failure to comply with applicable safety and environmental laws and regulations or Host Party’s safety requirements.

(f) Risks and Obligations. Entering Party will conduct the Work at its sole risk and expense and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, ordinances, codes and orders. Entering Party will be responsible for and pay all charges made, levied, or assessed by any third party in connection with the Work, including without limitation any taxes, charges, licensing fees, and the like, levied against Entering Party or Host Party.

(g) Indemnification. Entering Party will release, hold harmless, defend and indemnify Cargill from and against all claims arising from or relating to the Work or the Wastes, including but not limited to claims arising under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, and similar state laws.

8. Berm Obligations. The berm that surrounds much of the Port Cargill facility and protects the facility from flooding (the “Berm”) benefits all Port Tenants and any maintenance and repair expenses will be allocated among the Port Tenants in the same manner as prior to the Effective Date (i.e. based upon the percentage of the Port Cargill facility that each Port Tenant occupies). In the event the appropriate government agency determines that the Berm must be “certified” under applicable law, then the related expenses will be allocated among the Port Tenants in the same manner described in the prior sentence. Notwithstanding those expense-sharing obligations, Holding Company and Cargill will each be responsible for inspecting, maintaining and repairing any part of the Berm located on their respective parcels.

9. Term and Termination. The term of this Agreement will continue in effect so long as Port Cargill is owned by more than one legal entity. Neither party will have the right to terminate this Agreement during such period of time unless the parties mutually agree to terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any lease or easement described herein is not subject to this Section 9 and such lease or easement will be governed by the terms of separate lease and easement agreements entered into by the parties. Nothing in this Section 9 will limit the (i) right of either party to temporarily suspend providing a service or paying for a service if the other party is in breach of its obligations under this Agreement; or (ii) ability of a court to order that an individual service or obligation be permanently discontinued.

In the event they are unable to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days of receipt of the notice, the matter shall be resolved through the audit procedure set forth in Section 10(a) above or shall provide written notice to the other party requesting that such dispute be submitted to the mediation and arbitration procedures set forth in Section 17 of this Agreement.

(c) To the extent Responsible Party has audit rights with respect to a Service supplied by a third party supplier or utility, Responsible Party agrees to reasonably cooperate with Receiving Party, at Receiving Party’s expense and reasonable request, to exercise such audit rights with respect to costs paid by Receiving Party in connection with such service. Should an outside audit of the service or utility find that Responsible Party has overcharged for the Service, Responsible Party shall be responsible for the fees of the outside auditor retained by Receiving Party and, absent such determination, Receiving Party shall be responsible for such auditor’s fees.

11. Cooperation. The parties will use good faith efforts to cooperate with each other in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of a Service.

(e) If Mosaic is required by law or court order to disclose Confidential Information, Mosaic shall give Cargill prompt notice of such requirement so that an appropriate protective order or other relief may be sought.

Truck Scales

Holding Company will scale Salt trucks in and out for $1,000 per month (the “Scale Rate”). This service will be available from November through March and other times as negotiated between the parties. This service will be invoiced and paid by the respective parties on a monthly basis. Prior to November 1 each year, Salt and Holding Company may negotiate a Scale Rate adjustment for the subsequent one (1) year period. If the parties cannot agree on a Scale Rate adjustment for the subsequent year, the Scale Rate for that year will be increased or decreased as set forth below for the subsequent one (1) year period.

Crane Service

Given current utilization rates of Holding Company’s crane, Holding Company expects to be able to use the crane to unload the amount of salt that Salt typically unloads at Port Cargill in a typical “Barge Season” (approximately beginning mid-March and ending mid-November depending on ice and weather conditions) based upon past unloading history. If Holding Company expects that it may not have the capacity to unload expected Salt needs for an upcoming Barge Season, then by November 1, Holding Company will notify Salt that its capacity may be reduced for the upcoming Barge Season. By the following February 1, Salt will provide Holding Company with its request for Holding Company to unload a minimum quantity of tons of salt for the upcoming barge season (the “Minimum”). Upon acceptance of Salt’s requested Minimum by Holding Company, Holding Company will unload and Salt will supply for unload the Minimum quantity of salt during the upcoming Barge Season.

For example: Holding Company unloads the typical quantity of salt for the 2005 Barge Season. On November 1, 2005, Holding Company sends Salt a notice that it expects to have a reduced unloading capacity for the 2006 Barge Season. On February 1, 2006, Salt notifies Holding Company that it requests Holding Company to unload 100,000 tons of salt for the 2006 Barge Season. Holding Company accepts that Minimum and proceed to supply and load the Minimum for the 2006 Barge Season.

For the remainder of the 2004 Barge Season and the 2005 Barge Season, Holding Company will unload barges for Salt at the rate of $2.25 per ton (the “Crane Rate”). The salt barges will be unloaded in order of arrival. This service will be invoiced and paid by the respective parties on a monthly basis. Prior to November 1 each year, Salt and Holding Company may negotiate a Crane Rate adjustment for the subsequent Barge Season. If the parties cannot agree on a Crane Rate adjustment for the subsequent Barge Season, then the Crane Rate for that Barge Season will be increased or decreased as set forth below for the subsequent Barge Season.

Diesel Fuel

Holding Company will maintain a diesel fueling station on the Holding Company Parcel at which CAH and Salt can obtain diesel fuel. CAH and Cargill will reimburse Holding Company at a rate calculated by averaging the cost of the fuel purchased over the month, and adding five cents per gallon and sales tax ▇▇▇▇. Fuel will be billed and reimbursed by the respective parties every two months.

Rate Adjustments

A Scale Rate or Crane Rate will be adjusted in direct proportion to the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (the “CPI index”) between November 1 of the prior year and November 1 of the current year using the following parameters:
