Gold Energy LLC. 8/26/05         

This document serves as the service agreement between US Water Services / Utility Chemical Inc and Gold Energy LLC. Signing the service agreement shows the customers intent to utilize US Water Services as the water treatment supplier. Signing the LOI will allow US Water Service to commit to the necessary resources and equipment

If US Water Services satisfactorily performs the engineering services and analytical support work required during the design build process as detailed in appendix A with a value of over $100,000 if purchased through an outside consulting engineering company. US Water Services will expect to partner with Gold Energy LLC for long term water treatment chemicals and services. Appendix C shows the standard water treatment services agreement we will present when all the water and equipment information is know. If US Water Services does not satisfactorily perform the services detailed in appendix A, the customer has no obligation to continue to utilize our services.

We would like a level of commitment from Gold Energy LLC to show that the intention to utilize US Water Services at the water treatment company is a valid assumption. U.S. Water Services/Utility Chemical is committing to be competitive with other suppliers of similar services and equipment. Appendix B details the chemicals and support products that make up the service agreement. All of the products and services listed are directly related to water treatment.

Appendix C

U.S. Water Services Agreement

Term

U.S. Water Services agrees to provide the necessary water treatment chemicals, service program and for a period of three years from the startup of the plant which is expected to be approximately                     .

Investment

Customer agrees to pay U.S. Water Services:

		o		$                     annually for specialty water treatment chemicals and testing reagents (schedule A-1). The annual amount is based on nameplate ethanol production of 40 million gallons per year.
		o		$ 10,000 One time fee for Waterworks. (schedule B-1) details the components and function of the “Waterworks” automation and equipment upgrade package.
		o		$                     for RO equipment maintenance and support including start up fees and installation costs associated with commissioning the necessary capital equipment.

The payments will be made in monthly installments of $                      according to invoices generated by U.S. Water Services. State and local taxes will be added to each invoice unless a tax exemption is on file with U.S. Water Services. This agreement will automatically renew each year.

Not To Exceed Costs for Chemicals

U.S. Water Services agrees to limit the annual chemical cost for the specialty water treatment chemicals in schedule A-1 to a maximum of                     ,provided the chemicals are applied within the recommended limits specified by U.S. Water Services. The not to exceed cost does not include start up cleaning chemicals, RO cleaners, consumables such as filters or replacement parts. If annual production and water usage are above nameplate design the customer maybe billed at a rate of $                    / 1 million gallons additional ethanol production. Nameplate design and water efficiencies are stated below. Operational variances from the design basis below may result in additional charges. Charges will be reconciled at the end of every quarter. All efficiencies are based on a quarterly average.

	•		Cooling tower makeup does not exceed ___million gallons
	•		Cooling tower average cycles maintains over ___cycles of concentration
	•		Boiler condensate return is maintained above 78%
	•		Boiler Steam load averages 81,000 pounds per hour
	•		Boiler makeup averages 39 gallons per minute of RO water.
	•		Make up water quality remains similar to the test well quality.

Termination

The customer or U.S. Water Services may terminate the chemical and service agreement with 30 days written notice. If the customer terminates the chemical and service agreement, outstanding equipment balances owed, if any, bundled discounts taken must be paid in full prior to termination. In addition, all remaining opened chemical inventory that is part of this agreement, (Schedule B-1) must be purchased prior to termination. U.S. Water Services owned equipment such as chemical tanks, shall be returned within 30 days of termination date. If U.S. Water Services terminates the chemical and service agreement, the customer has the choice of continuing to pay equipment installments per the installment schedule or may pay the outstanding amount in full. All equipment warranties are per the original equipment manufacturer warranty.
